Guild Wars 2

Why would they lock transfers when they can make so much money off them? Integrity of WvW be dammed, if there’s a cash grab available they’re going to go for it, and this is about as blatant as it gets.

Zerker with Longbow/GS is really fun and effective in large-scale fights, I usually run that, and switch to sword/mace/GS for smaller stuff.

Same issue here, Naga mouse, win 7. Sometimes I can end up with my cursor on my second monitor even running fullscreen, like the GW2 program itself is losing priority in windows.

We got Komali tonight and lost, tactics weren’t the reason either, random warrior wandering through the zone kept attacking and getting the might stacks up. We were asking him to stop and it was like talking to a brick wall.

I like that it isn’t a zerg fight, really I do, but when one dimwit can ruin the fight for an entire guild something is suspect.

If you are looking for ways to bring back 3-round tournaments have you ever thought about a limited window? For example:

- 3 round tournaments happen once every 3 weeks.
- It occurs over a 2 day period: Friday and Saturday. I picked Friday over Sunday to help people who play during the week.
- For those 2 days 2 team tournaments are disabled.
- A new rankings list is created for those who participate in the 3-round tournament.
- After the 2-days the rankings continue to exist till the next 3-round tournament (rinse and repeat). Though keeping records of old tournaments would be nice. See how things and players change over time.
- Offer some unique rewards specific to the 3-round tournaments: skins, titles, whatever.

You could always do a trial period. Give a month notice and pick one day, one Saturday, to have 3-round tournaments. Make GW2 players aware of this day and what the rewards are. Make it clear it is a trial tournament/day to see how it works out.

Something like this is what i think of when I see the word “tournament”, its also why I think what we have currently needs a better description. Right now we have SPvP “matches”, save the word “tournament” for something that matters. Be it monthly, quarterly, whatever.

There’s a little competition going on in college basketball right now, you know why its a big deal? Because the teams spent months playing games and working on their rating just for the shot at an invite, and winning it is a pretty big deal.

For this to work rated SPvP matches need to become a thing, but the ratings need to be visible to everyone, not just Anet internally. Let the solo/duo people play in unrated matches, but if people want to play with a full group outside of hot join make them do a rated match.

I don’t even play much SPvP, but its painful to see a game-mode with so much potential for competition just dissolve away less than a year after release. Making the tournaments more meaningful and getting the SPvP community back on track helps the game in the long run, and that’s what I care about. So please Anet, don’t drop the ball here, get things where they need to be asap.

At this point isn’t it a little silly to keep calling them Tournaments?

Thanks for the heads-up on the delay… I could have done another round of fractals

We now have guild forums set up on Ehmry.com

I’m not sure about the whole ‘teaming up thing’, but I do remember a couple of ‘spies’ or what have you being obnoxious in SF chat going on and on about how EB beat us due to them spying on our plans and how funny it was. I don’t really think it’s a big deal, but it still sucks that the victory wasn’t 100% honest.

Ah well. Maybe next time. (:

You caught us, we were totally spying on those 3 SF guys that were taking supply camps in the borderlands…

The X-Ray glasses that you can order from Archie comics are overpowered.

Beastmode was founded in GW2 with the goal of being competitive in both WvW and PVE while still keeping a casual approach to the game. We’ve all been in “hardcore” guilds over the years in various games, and we still have the mindset that we want to play at a high level, but without the elitist attitudes and life-changing requirements that come with being “hardcore”. We’ve learned when to have fun but also when to take things serious.

We just got a commander title and are starting to focus on creating an active fast paced environment in WvW with our guild, we tend to go into enemy borderlands and try to capture a foothold there. Sometimes the things we attempt are crazy and go against conventional wisdom, but the payoff for those risks are huge, so we keep on working on things to improve our efficiency.

When it comes to PVE we do it all; Dungeons, Karma farms, Jumping Puzzles, etc… GW2 is a game with a lot of things to do, and we don’t want to miss any of it. Our past guilds have either been “raiding” or “PvP”, here’s we aren’t labeling ourselves as one or the other, we’ve found that we’re having a much better time as a group by simply enjoying the game and letting the pieces fall where they may.

What we’re looking for is people that enjoy all aspects of the game, clearing out content and smashing faces in WvW. All we ask is that you be respectful of other members, represent and have mumble so we can communicate in groups without typing (all you have to do is listen). We’re an older crowd, so we’re primarily looking for people that are 18+, but we’ve made exceptions in the past, and are willing to look over the age requirement in special cases.

Get in touch with Dalgar.6721, Gilaborn.2461 or Sneakpeak.4786 if you’re interested!

The queue boss is OP, same issue on SBI. We had 10 people in guild queue up and the only ones that got in were the two lowbies, every 80 sat in queue for 3 hours before giving up and running other stuff.

I would also like to see the option for different colors for the commander icon, so you can say “red commander heading north, blue going east” or “yellow is a scout team”.

I think that would help alleviate issue where everyone just follows the icon somewhat.

We intend to make it so retaliation does not effect siege weapons. No ETA, but we’re looking into it.

If you do this, please consider limiting where siege can be placed, otherwise getting into the throne room in some keeps will be nearly impossible if they have siege inside.
