Guild Wars 2

So now that DB and JQ are finally matched up. When is the long awaited [RE] vs [EMP] GvG?

EDIT: Would be nice to see also
[rB] vs [iCoa]
[Agg] vs [SF]
[CO] vs [RISE]

Lol @ the people trying to troll Agg in here. I’d love to see you guys actually GvG them. Would be some sweet massacre.

Would the massacre be like this one?

No. But I think it would be like this one.

We would welcome you guys to Dragonbrand! As Mayo have mentioned, we still have some areas that we could improve in our NA primetime, and you guys would be a lot of help in that area. DB is not a Kain 2.0 that came all the way from T8 as most people are saying. We have experienced ups and down from mid tier to lower tier, yet we have persevered and became stable in T3. This server has core WvWers that didn’t come in quick massive influx like it was in Kaineng. We play to have fun, and at the same time to stay competitive in WvW!

Also, don’t worry about the server’s full status. If BT can squeeze in to Blackgate, I don’t think you guys will have trouble transferring to Dragonbrand

Hope to see you guys in DB!

It would be nice if the new matchups were listed before reset. It’s kinda hard to plan your attack when you have no idea who you’re going up against o.O

This. I like the new matchup mechanics that they implemented, but there has to be a way to know who your opponents will be before reset. Arenanet has to implement this soon.

If the new matchmaking system were implemented today “T1” would be JQ|DB|FA and “T3” would be TC|Mag|SoS according to Anet’s post. Yikes!

Official : RE vs VeT

• Video now up!
• 15 v 15 GvG

Why do you keep posting the score? I have done a lot of GvG’s and never seen anyone so disrespectful, which is counter to what GvG’s are about.

I haven’t done much GvGs, but I do know that a lot of guilds do post results on the forums. Sure it doesn’t mean that everybody should do it, but there is nothing disrespectful about making the results public. I for one would like to know the results of every GvG happening on all server since they are not currently supported by the game.

Yes. It was also very laggy on DBs side and we couldn’t do anything but spam 1. I have been to a couple of 3 way fights in SMC, but never that laggy. Nevertheless, it was a real fun fight that I think lasted for 2 hours. The castle kept flipping until we finally got it in the end xD.

I just got 30 tokens on the same character after running CoF p1 quickly after reset. The DR took an effect even though i was on the same character and other people on the group got their 60 tokens. Definitely a bug.

Hopefully the new glicko system would prevent stagnations of tiers. I really wouldn’t mind a quick change of matchups for winners/losers because imo stagnation is worse than getting beaten by a stronger server for 1 week.

Anet made the right decision to disable titles. I wouldn’t mind if they implement an option in the future to see the titles, but the default should be off.

Thanks for the GvG Hope. Its was a great spare of the moment GvG, and a great way to end the night!

What was the score of GvG? :O

I like this idea. Im hoping there will be more posts from other guilds as well!

Lol at the people going crazy just because someone posted their transferring details. If you guys really don’t care then there is no point replying to mayo’s post and being bitter about it. With that being said, guilds transferring servers happen all the time. It’s one of those things that keeps WvW from getting stale whether we all like it or not.

The reason why most of the cities other than lion’s arch are underpopulated is because there simply isn’t much anything to do once you’ve explored it and in max level. I really hope the devs would eventually add something interesting to the major cities especially divinity’s reach. The scenery in DR is simply breathtaking and I hate to see it go to waste.

Interesting idea. But I highly doubt the devs will ever show the number of players participating in WvW. In fact, any kind of data that shows the population in game isn’t shown (Population per server is inaccurate on the main menu).

One solution that I could think of to prevent downed scouting is to implement a “second kill” action when a player is dead. I haven’t played WoW for while, but I remember they had a feature to right click a dead player that will force them back to spawn. The advantage of the feature is that dead players would still have an option to wait for res if noone finishes them for the second time, yet preventing scouting if other players decide to send you back to spawn.

The only disadvantage I could see is that it would clog up the UI on WvW, and it will be another addition to the already heavily used “F” default key which is bad right now.

Hi all, I am looking for a hardcore and WvW focused guild on Blackgate. Specifically, I am looking for a guild that that does occassional WvW training to try some new strategies on the battlefield (looking forward for some GvGs too). Currently, I have an engineer and a mesmer that are both well geared for WvW.

Thanks!

Can’t say that I’m surprised, guilds that transfer when their server loses will always be guilds that transfer when their server loses.

mhmm

Server hoppers be hopping.

Nothing personal against the people of RISE (as I’m sure you’re good folk irl) but I’d be embarrassed to have my name part of a similar history.

So what’s the running WvW hopper damage now?
HoD ET IoJ CD SBI SoS and now KN?

Did I leave anyone out?

Not everyone shares your view of being “loyal” to a server for the entirety of the game. Some people may find that honorable and some simply don’t care where they end up as long as they are having fun in the server they’re in.

Siroso.2769:

Definitely the main problem with this move is the new guild name! It will confusing having two large WvW focussed guilds with the tag “RE”. Perhaps Red Essence could use the tag “RED” instead? Or change the name? Rethesis obviously gets first dibs.

This! I hope they reconsider the guild tag name since it could get confusing when they meet in WvW lol.

@ Phantasmal : Darknicrofia is from KO btw.

My preferred commanders from Kaineng (Not ordered):

• Jang Gun[WM]
• Prince Jarvan [RISE]
• Dekar[CO]
• Unreasonable[Meow]
• Jacbo [RUN]

I am currently working towards the hunter and it is a serious pain. The hunter seems to suffer more manipulation than any other precursor, just in the last month it has gone from around 450g to up to 900g, often having no copies on TP at all. What really bugs me though is that I could have bought it early on, but decided the prices might drop a bit (it was about 450g at the time…) now that I lost my chance I am just trying to get it from MF and it is seriously depressing. So far nearly a thousand rares and over 150 exotics have been flushed down the mystic toilet and all I got so far were 3 charzzookas and a bunch of 3-5g skins :/
Edit: spelling, way too tired and depressed to spell correctly :<

Wow that really sucks dude. Anyway, I had a chance to buy the hunter before too(during ancient karka event) it went down to like 120 gold, and I still didnt buy it lol. 5 months after of being precursorless, I had enough of farming for the ridiculous price of hunter and decided to spend like 50 gold worth of rares(around 80 pieces). To my surprise, I got a hunter after using like 30 rares. I guess it’s just really comes down to pureluck. I’ve heard stories of people spending like 800g on TP and getting nothing, while I just spent only 30 gold and got a precursor.

I know there were a lot of people who requested this visible title feature, but most of them are probably PVE people. To be fair, I think there should be an option to remove the visibility of the title just for WvW. Nobody really cares about titles in WvW, and the added feature just clutters the UI with uneccessary stuff that is completely not needed in PvP. I hope they address this issue quickly on the next patch.

Simple answer to OP: No, it shouldn’t be nerfed. Any viable/legal farming spot should not be nerfed. Not everyone is looking for a “challenging” dungeon and is simply doing it to farm. So if you’re the type of player who wants challenging pve stuff then do the other paths or dungeons and avoid the farming dungeons that we enjoy

munkiman.3068:

There is a trick, actually. Dump all your random rares into the forge… I now know 2 people that dropped chest looted rares and got precursors. Of course it’s going to be a random pre, but it’s still worth it to sell it if it’s one you don’t want. If you do 8 events and loot 12-16 rares a day, there ya go.

Wait do you mean dropping random rare weapons on the mystic forge could still give you a precursor but just random? Like a completely random weapon type?

I agree with what everyone has said so far. The titles are just annoying to look at especially in WvW. And what is up with seeing the title of enemy invaders? So Anet doesn’t want us to see their names but titles are OK? I don’t get the logic there; they should implement a quick patch to add an option that disables the visibility of titles.

I am a lvl 80 engineer (well-geared) looking for an active pvp-oriented guild in the Sanctum of Rall server. I spend most of my time playing WvW and I would like to be part of a group that focuses mostly in PvP(some PvE and expl dungeon runs will do too :P). Thanks.
