Guild Wars 2

Do we still kitten things? Is that a thing? I meant complained.

We’ve kittened, they answered. Did we kitten too much or them answer too hard? I mean honestly reap what you sow.

Decent teamwork with all 5 in a voip will generally lay down some nasty points. Being wise to interrupts, CC, and focus targets is enough to cripple an enemy team that has 0 communication.

The link to the article about NCSoft’s $$ problems is below; Aion and GW2 are holding, however, WIldstar has plummeted. Neither are in a great place, but they’re doing ok.

So you all think my 700 badges aren’t going to be useful for ascended gear?

700 can’t buy you a current gear set, why would a new one be cheaper? O_o

moirweyn.9872:

I think they should remove all the NPC mobs from WvW, aside from the guards and merchants. Get rid of the animals or make them background noise you can’t target.

This, all day long. Get the PvE out of WvW.

There must be bloodshed, thus FA is out hunting.

We at ULTD believe the best way to spend the holidays is killing. It’s how we pay homage to the gods of battle.

Got Score in a PM O_O

IoJ – 218,260 +250
FA – 191,129 +215
CD – 184, 664 +230

Can we get a score/map update please?

Great job out there FA, we did work.

Draymos.5489:

Badges were made for melee classes. If your range classes you get little to none.

The exact opposite of this actually. You couldn’t have been more wrong.

Nice Quenta, the vids came out great. We are so nasty!

Also, can we get a map/score update to bump to the Q/A?

Thanks!

I’m not sure why people keep asking for the score…
Here’s a website!

http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA

That website only shows updates every 3-6 hrs. We ask because the topic and point of these threads on the Forum we make and post on every week is to keep an up-to-date score and allow for discussion. kthx.

Now, map and score demons!

Nice Quenta, the vids came out great. We are so nasty!

Sera.9750:

I think part of it has to do with perception of what a leader should be doing. Normally you want your leader to be smart and tactical and wise and be someone you can believe you could follow into battle knowing what they guide you to do will lead to success or put you in a good position to win.

However, being the game that this is….it often means more it seems to see a commander who may or may not even be the brightest or best tactical leader; instead charging face first into a mob of enemies and facerolling them…and ideally not dying in the process.

Which leads to the difference of opinion of what people are looking for in a commander and what their role should be. I say personally any profession can be a commander and your role can be different depending on what class you are.

So say a thief is commander…your role can be assisting in roaming…cutting off supplies…gorilla tactics,etc….a warrior commander can be a frontline assault person…guardian tower/keep defense…..ranger siege assist ( what i do personally being a glass longbow user ), etc.

So I think the role can change depending on the class so you dont feel gimped into a role that doesnt even suit your classes strengths. I mean theirs many facets to WvW so there’s no logical way to imply that all commanders should do is charge into battle headlong and kill people…the other portions of WvW are there…so utilize them and let your class kinda help aid that area your assisting in.

So basically…if your a thief…dont go charging into battle like a moron just cuz your a commander….lead in a way or a group that sticks to your strengths and people that wish to follow you for your role will.

This is not only worded very well, the information is sound. Be the Commander you’re capable of being, and use the tools laid out via your profession. Trying to put a square block in a round hole isn’t going to help you or the group of people who choose to follow you. I’m not saying to stick to one thing and rinse and repeat either though. Play to your advantages, make moves with the group in that way, stick to your guns, and you cannot go wrong.

Can we get an updated score/map to put up please?

Going to be some voracious battles this matchup. Cannot wait!

Hah truer words.

Low pops all around for the holidays no doubt, but I know those of us that will be on will make sure nothing is easy for anyone. ;]

Will use the Q/A to keep the score updated.

Welcome IoJ to T3 a.k.a. The Grudge Tier.

Bring on the battles!

With TC gone up, and the steady rivalry between CD and FA, are we ready for the T2 IoJ to drop down?

Tarvok.4206:

Sort of a GW2 equivalent of UO’s “Siege Perilous.”

Ah memories..

Stop feeding an angry troll and just let this one die out like the rest.

ULTD will miss our formidable opponents. Cheers TC.

Now, CD and IoJ.. assume the position. ;]

Daedalus.3954:

Thank you snookums.

I guess that pet name wasn’t reserved for me. Now I’m wondering what else was just pillow talk.

I’m going to need to do some serious thinking about our relationship.

Aww you know I’m all for you sweet thing.

;] I’m too sexy to not love everyone. I mean it won’t stop me from killing you in W3, but I’ll be kitten if we can get our freak on here in the forums.

Thank you snookums.

Score/Map Update please?

Lurv youuu

Phenomenal work, man. Really well done. A pleasure to look at, I would love to see some Hardened Sword/Shield Blue Glowing Guardian stuff from someone who has your ability.

Hey hey! On the topic of THIS weeks fight, updates please? ;]

Can we get a score/map update please? At work until 1900EST.

Great fights last night in FABL, I know ULTD had a blast. Can’t wait for more this evening.

Cheers.

Darxio.5672:

You could always, oh I don’t know, break the wall or gate out of the AC’s range if they’re turtling with carts. Simple as that if you don’t want to bring in the non-personnel(golems) to deal with the anti-personnel fire.

And just because maybe you can’t hit it, doesn’t mean your other allies can’t. Barrage and Meteor Shower can do amazing things to well placed siege(as can your own arrow carts, or even ballistas).

I understand mass amounts of well-placed arrow carts suck to be up against, but that’s when you take a step back and siege the place from afar when they’re bunkered in like that. Now if your men run to ram the gate with their face instead of listening to orders to stand back and catapult/treb it, then that’s a different issue altogether.

That’s the issue though bud, that we HAVE to step back and Cata/Treb EVERYTHING now. There’s almost no reason to carry Rams.

Do you honestly think I was speaking for myself? ULTD doesn’t mindlessly throw ourselves at anything. What I was referring to we’re things we’ve defended from. With 10-12 people have the majority on arrow carts we have successfuly defended a keep with all walls and doors down. It’s a lot of fun, don’t get me wrong, that’s what we live for, but that kind of stuff takes tactics.

For a group with a larger pressence have a few people hold a door with arrow carts while zerging the map with the rest, THAT’s the issue. That what we do with a few people, we do to save our locations and maintain points. The fact that larger, more heavily populated servers can do the same thing while backcapping half the map… that’s the problem.

Thus simplest solution is nerfbat the Arrow Carts or get rid of them.

You…you stifle yourself. Where’s my chloroform rag?

Back on topic please: Map/Score Update?

Edit: Thanks Teknoflow.4618

Left unchecked? How about the only peice of anti-personnel siege that can be placed in a location that cannot be destroyed? Making them a bit too ridiculous.

I would love to see them gone. Everything else is fine, but arrow carts take away what makes sieging keep/tower doors the most fun. In all seriousness 4 arrow carts can stop a 40man push on a door. That’s insane, and it pigeonholes you into using certain tactics at a constant leaving very little variety.

Score/Map update would be lovely. ;]

Lanimal.6541:

On the same topic, I have rarely rarely seen a party of 4 or 5 from FA being able to ninja a Tower or Keep out in the TCBL without us responding in time, the few times I have seen it, it was done by the guys from ULTD who are probably the only guild in FA I respect in tactics, execution, individual skill and overall strategy. Oh and TSI is pretty decent as well.

We do our best to make sure we leave lasting impressions. ;] Thanks for the shout out. We’ll keep doing our best.

Cheers to future battles!

Sure wish we could play..

Can we get a map/score update?

Stuck working a ~90hr week this week and I’m missing all the slaughter. So I’ll be pesky here and ask for stuff.

Gonna be a fun week!

Who is JC? O_O I seee JQ and DC.

What the everloving kitten is going on here? Are you trying to make a positive WvW post including things people enjoy in wuvwuv?

You cut that kitten out right now.

You go back to complaining that there aren’t videos like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twRXCZXFCL0, or guilds like mine (in said video) who enjoy just slaying people in WvW. That no one has fun camping the enemy inside their own tower (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7sYqo3_GplY) or being any kind of comeptetive with a small group.

Nonsense.

Cheers to future battles!

I work in law enforcement, played it in the station. Laughed along with one other patrolman, everyone else thinks we’re insane. Worth it.

/salute

FA can’t wait to see Yak’s again. These past weeks have been nothing but fun.

Xavi.6591:

/fistpump

Want.

I hatechoo.

Would love to see have a /shakebootay. Since we like to get down.

Kitten Yeah! GO Unlimited!

I think we all just need more kitten. Literally, kitten. I mean who doesn’t want more kitten?

Seriously though, all the drama and silly crap aside, this week was as much fun as the previous. Looking forward to CD throwing some hate into the mix. Gonna be a blast. Cheers.

I know, I ask every afternoon, but can we get a score/map update please? I’ll make it worth someones time. ;]

As well last night in FABL ULTD had a blast with you TC guys. Greenlake was a warzone for hours. So much fun.

Joiry.2504:

I’m a programmer and I certainly understand changing features or adding new functionality can be difficult and takes time. Even though I work on relatively small applications for academic analysis, I’ve gotten my share of requests for features that would take far too much time to implement.

However, Anet has to realize, players are playing the game now. I’m sure you do realize this, but I just want to reinforce the point. While a good long term solution is great, you guys are just leaving the wvw game in a bad state right now, turning off players…ie customers.

Heck, if you need to break out the old GW1 april fool’s stick figure models for culled players, do so. Even if there’s not the badwidth to tell me what those players are specifically doing, I’d at least like to know they are there.

Probably the best post on this I’ve seen in a while, with the actual point being made. Future fixes and long term fixes aren’t the same. There’s a strong need for this to be dealt with now. Like right now.

It’s an 8% increase in stats. Not enough to do all that farming. I’m fine with exotics as well.

My dedication to my server and my guild have a hardened resolve.
