you wont get on till most sane people have gone to bed, it will be full till 2am ish I would guess. You wont get on because you are simply waiting in the queue, whilst other people keep jumping to the front of the queue by grouping with those in the main server and joining them. Sorry but its a screwed up system.
its not guesting that is the problem, its people who jump to the front of the queue by joining friends inside the main instance that is the problem. I’m on Deso and I’m not in a big guild or have a lot of friends on my list, so I don’t have the connections to get in so I can’t. I’ve just given up now.
your very welcome, many of us have been here all day, nice to have you
Condition damage would like to extend a warm welcome to all berzerkers, you are a most welcome part of the “honourable order of unviable damage”. We hope you will make yourself at home and enjoy all future meetings at all major world boss events.
What you are advocating is queue jumping, they don’t let it happen at alton towers and it shouldn’t happen here. Also people don’t leave the instance in deso. I sat in overflow waiting for a space in main server for 5 hours and nothing. People are just camping it and going afk.
As I have said in a previous post 2 things would go a long way to solving this.
1. Have a wvw style queue for or home instance so we don’t have to spend all our time on one map waiting.
2. Have an afk kick in main map so people can’t just stay on all day hogging the main instance and only play when teq spawns.
Hi bubi, sorry I think you have missed the point of 1. if we leave the map we leave the queue, which means we have to wait in that one map all day to stay in queue. if it was like WVW we could go to another map and do other things and still remain queued.
Hope this makes sense, as for the kicking afkers, it would simply mean that people have to be actively playing the game and not just playing for 15 mins every 1.5 hours. Granted this is more controversial, but I think would give more people a fair chance at playing on their actual server.
is that clearer?
First I wanted to say that this is a great event, its a good level of difficulty and fun imo. This is why this event is so much more frustrating for me. I work full time and I have been unable to get into my main server in order to give this fight a real go. I have spent hours of my time in the overflow in one map, failing the event due to lack of numbers and organisation.
I could log on in the middle of the night and go afk till I get home, but that is not fair on everyone else and not the way I want to play.
I wouldn’t mind so much if there was a TP in the map so i could do something productive, but there isn’t even that.
I have 2 solutions that could be put in place and would solve much of the problem.
1. Make the queue for the fight/main instance like the WVW queue so that we can access the rest of the game whilst we wait.
2. Have an afk kick after a couple of mins in the main instance so that people cant go afk between fights.
I think ether of these would make a difference.
also cant get back into the game now
If there are two of you, it would be a nice idea for one to run with warhorn and banners/shouts, offer some support.
I don’t normally post in forums but feel compelled to here with regards to the recent patch. I believe that Anet were trying to encourage diversity in builds, although I am uncertain of their success.
I have been playing warrior since launch. I tried a lot of builds, but settled on sword and warhorn as I liked the play style and the fact that it brings more to the party than just raw damage. I have run a lot of groups, and I would say that 95%+ of other warriors in these groups have used greatsword (I have no issue with this, happy for people to play what they like). In all my runs I have never seen anyone else run with sword and warhorn. I also use healing banners, in a recent run someone asked me how I was stacking regen on the party and before I could answer another warrior said it must be a bug as warriors can’t regen others.
I would consider my build to be one that is in the minority and something that Anet might want to promote, if indeed it is keen to promote build diversity. Due to the changes in sword main hand, my damage has taken a hit, infact I am seriously considering changing to a greatsword build, this is a big thing for me as I am heavily invested in condition damage.
I am interested to hear how the changes have affected others and see if people are moving out of greatsword to try other options post patch, or if there are those who are running with other sets at the moment who are thinking of switching to other sets or even into the greatsword?
thanks for reading and any helpful comments.
