Ballista Damage vs Siege

I am pretty sure it is the same for all other siege. I was hitting 4 superior rams on watergate garrison with a treb and it took twice as many hits to bring down. Gate was at 10% by the time I got them down. Not great when you have 2-3 defenders vs a 30-40 man zerg…

T2 painfully stacked

Recently some gvg oriented guilds from t1 transfered to YB for reasons that baffle many people, these were NA guilds which pushed YB’s already high NA coverage and queues even higher.

They weren’t gvg guilds, anything but, they were guilds from BG and JQ that apparently want to open up T1 US to more servers, whether they are being entirely truthful as to their intentions is another thing.

No they weren’t. They were guilds that wanted to get YB into T1 and TC out of T1. This was known about on all the T1 servers. They basically want YB to come up to T1 so T1 will be more like EotM and they could bag farm YB and K-Train to their heart’s content.

Well if you actually listen to Malevolent from ONS he actually wants BG out of T1 not TC and their stated intention is to open up tier 1 to become more of a rotation as I said. Again like I said whether you believe them or not is up to you but it is what they have said.

A rotation? So what about the other 2 servers in this tier. Pretty clear this idea was not well thought out and now because some of the gw2 player base (Mal and company) stacking one server it has killed WvW for a larger percent of players in t2. Thanks….

A better idea would have been to spread out the population in t2 and have fair fights instead of fighting empty servers.

Meanwhile the entire tier is screwed up to appease a few of the WvW player base. How about making it so there is an even population so we can get good fights…. instead of stacking one server.

Found WvW endgame!

No, I think Adula’s right. They don’t know what else to do. Clearly the stated goal here is to break the WvW community and this behavior shows it. Well done showing us all your true colors.

This is the YB way….. please leave to T1.

WvW: Siege Disappearing after new builds

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

In the past after a new build any golems on the boarderlands in WvW would disappear.

However, today with the latest two builds I noticed it wiped out 3/4 of all the built siege (golems. arrow carts, trebuchets, catapults and balli’s) on the map. This happened twice today and feel it is something that shouldn’t happen. Players (mostly the scouts) spend a lot of their time in the game building and refreshing this siege. It cost gold, or spirit shards as well as lots of time. Please fix!

well, for waypointed keep, the wp still shows contested sign right if attacked ?

Yes.

Overall, I am not enjoying this change. I roam/scout 95% of the time and this change has caused me to not want to do it. I hope this stays a temporary change.

Trebuchet Mastery

Trait Line 3: Increased the radius of trebuchet skills.

How much of a radius increase is this? It is damage radius or length of shot radius? I want to know before I invest 25 ability points into it. I searched around and couldn’t find the answer. Thanks.

I like the idea of the liquid WXP drops, but the drop rate for getting these from enemies and rank chest are low. The ones that I have gotten have only been 250 wxp which doesn’t amount to much. This has made little difference in getting ranks up on alts….

We will not be changing WvW ranks or WxP to be account bound. However, we are going to be implementing a host of changes that should make this seem less like some sort of punishment(a categorization I disagree with entirely) and more of a character progression system. The first step is the liquid WXP that is being added to the rank up chests which is account-bound. We are planning additional systems as well. Hopefully, as we continue to announce some of those changes, you will be happier with the system.

Hi HalcyonBrush – I would recommend a clean installation of the latest video card drivers. We usually have players try Driver Fusion. I would also recommend you update your DirectX. The game client requires the latest DirectX 9 components; this is true even if you have DirectX 10 or higher already installed. Please follow the instructions at Microsoft’s web site to install the newest DirectX 9 update:

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=3b170b25-abab-4bc3-ae91-50ceb6d8fa8d

Please be sure to save the file to your Windows desktop. Then create a new folder on the desktop and extract the DirectX files into it. Once they have been extracted open the new folder and use the DXsetup file to install DirectX.

Did all the above….no change. Still crashes frequently, cyan and yellow gradients still there, I went from running the game on max settings to low. All this happened immediately after the update.

Hello, I am having the same issues above. I get the weird cyan and yellow screens and soon after Windows gives me a message that gw2 has stopped working. I also get frequent crashes when going to the map several times or even switching zones. The colors did not start showing up until the latest update. I went from viewing the game on the highest settings to the lowest and still get issues. It has created lost of frustration and I am hoping there is a fix. I have a Nvida GTX 560 Ti and have tried reseeding my video card and fresh driver installs.
