Guild Wars 2

Just joined this guild today, really made the game fun for me again tbh. There is plenty of sPvP dueling, havok roaming.

Every single member is highly skilled, since you’re tested in our dueling room before you’re allowed in, there’s also a squad system to prevent one manning and yeah, it’s alot of fun. Join now

To be brief, these changes to the thief although not unjust are a step in the wrong direction. Going back to the basics of what the thief was supposed to be, your policy has been that the thief was going to be the best 1v1 class from the perspective of the other classes, and as thus it’s supposed to have a high damage output, plenty of disengages while retaining some survivability outside of stealth when played to a high level. To do this, it has always been clear that the thief will be lacking in MANY aspects that other professions are not for e.g aoe damage/zerging and even in terms of what they can bring to group-play compared to the other professions.

The original thief on release, was that. However after numerous nerfs it is now a shell of its former self. Every profession although being able to play a diverse range of roles has one that it excels with. The way I understand it, the thief was always supposed to be the best at 1v1. It does not make sense therefore to base your changes on the QQing of individuals on the forums who have lost to a thief in a fight.

Me and some other friends transfered to Sanctum of Rall (NA) from Aurora Glade (EU). The glitch consists of all of us not recieving any chests or glory for winning tournaments. We understand that this has been a known glitch for about 6 months now and it’s still being “looked into”. The only possible way to fix the glitch is apparently to get more tournament wins in the new server then you had in the old server according to someone who had a similar problem. However we all have over 1000 wins to our name so it’s going to be quite a few months before we’re even going to be at that stage by which point we still won’t have progressed any further in terms of ranking.

Tbh anything at this stage -.- pvp in this game has been in decline since release.

any thoughts guys, ik it’s a long read.

Guildwars2 is a great game, a definite bargain for what you pay. However there’s no denying that 95% of what you get is PVE content and now with the new “a pve event every two weeks” that doesn’t look like it’s going to be tipped towards a more PVP centered game anytime soon.

That’s a real shame, as Guildwars1 really had the right balance between both PvP and PvE and the Devs have talked about turning Guildwars2 into an E-Sport on numerous occasions. However the way I see it, there are three problems with this.

1) The majority of hardcore sPvP players have already given up on the game or moved to WvW for a variety of reasons.

2) The majority of active PvP players are invested in WvW and not sPvP.

3) It’s extremely easy to make WvW self sufficent without having to constantly create new content like they do for PvE (aside from balancing). Yet the devs aren’t willing to do it.

HOW I HEAR YOU CRY?

Well, incentives/stakes/dynamics.

What do I mean by incentive? There has to be some light at the end of the tunnel in order for people to feel willing to go down it, right now WvW achievement points are lacking especially when compared to PvE for time spent earning them. As are experience points and even the ability to buy cool skins (make badges harder to get and allow us to buy ascended with just badges or even offer different types of WvW armor- current one would be tier1 offer a tier2 and 3/4/5 (same stats just cooler/rarer skins).

All it would take is to edit a few numbers and voila! suddenly people are being equally rewarded for playing no matter if they decide to play pve or pvp.

What do I mean by stake?

There has to be something to lose, as much as something to gain. That’s why games that punish players extensively are often addicting as players aren’t simply playing for points but also for the sheer satisfaction of not diying or even getting a kill worthwhile. (In this game it doesn’t matter if you die, due to cheap repair prices being the only penalty)

Furthermore, since we’re talking about stake GIVE US STAKING (dueling). Allow us to challenge other players or even parties to duels and bet our gold on who wins.

Guild vs Guild ? WHY IS THERE NOT a guild vs guild platform yet for large organised fights, WITH rewards. + p.s what happened to Guild Halls/Why can guild leaders not see the activity of people in their guilds. This is guildwars.

As for dynamics, really? You guys are complaining about the matchups? HOW ABOUT THE FRICKEN MAP? Can we not simply have 4 days on one map, 3 days on another. Or even better 4 days on current game mode in WvW, other 3 on a different say gamemode.

meh, rant over give me all you got

To the people who’re complaining that SoR EU is op, directly because of us (KISS). I just want to say that we have had close fights from both servers on a consistent basis ever since we transfered.

There are plenty of good guilds/commanders on all servers, I believe that overall the matchups we’ve experienced have been very close and that there’s honestly no reason to QQ.

Yes certain servers are better than others at certain periods of time however overall all servers tend to be pitching at relatively the same ticks in relation to what said servers would be ticking against none tier 1 servers.

So yeah, goodjob so far on the current matchup guys. Just had some brilliant fights against [agg] [rise] [tv] and [war] in the last hour, just goes to show that both BG and JQ have many good guilds on at the same time as [kiss] who can give us a run for our money.

Mawr lootbags pweety please, it’s funny because it’s the same guilds who have to leave their commander hat on in order to attract enough pugs to facewipe that come on the forums to QQ.

Is this the [KISS] guild that joined SoR?
