Guild Wars 2

Agreed. This change is terrible for wvw. That extra time out of shroud destroys any counterplay to a daredevil or other fast class. In exchange for what? Some swiftness that does us absolutely zero good up against all the gap openers & closers on literally every other class. Laughable.

I would like to see it drop a condition every few seconds OR have a chance to absorb projectiles akin to CPC, if not either of those a cd reduction would be great.

As has been mentioned ,I use it with some effectiveness with sword. Essentially the Warhorn is a boon battery in my build, SotP+Hunter’s call followed by WHaO. That on top of Call of the Wild gives me plenty of might. I do agree that the Warhorn is extremely dated and defenitely needs some love.

An AoE reveal, Vuln, Blinds, Boonrip. any of the above would improve Hunter’s Call.

I’d like an invite as well please and thank you.

@ Havvik Nightseeker, I’ve got some friends in RH, I’ll have to let em’ know their efforts aren’t going unnoticed

@Darkhaven
After your ridiculous siege of redbriar involving a huge zerg 5 catas a ram and a treb @ the ruins its still ours. HAHA.
Seriously though, good fight, GoM borderlands hasn’t been that lively in a while.

No. lol. While I agree that the skill itself is useless in every other situation, rangers are gimped enough in wvw as is, we have only a few viable builds. The pet, our class mechanic and a large portion of our damage, should not be sitting there uselessly while we’re trying to defend a tower. If the skill is changed I’d at least like to see birds able to attack people on/from towers.

Dear Kaineng ranger @ GoM spawn, Kaineng borderlands,

If ever you Tbag me after your group of 10+ kills me for you again, I won’t settle for tracking you down and killing you only three times as you saw tonight. I will find you and murder your charr face off until you ragequit.

Obligatory mud-slinging out of the way, I’m still having fun in this match and will to continue to do so as long as there is fighting to be had. GoM can’t complain as we had a slight pop advantage last week and that’s just how WvW is gonna be until server transfers are limited better. Keep fighting and it’ll get better!

logging in now, here’s to hoping GoM isn’t getting owned. lol

Blast! Our secret to getting a larger population is out! ;-)
Seriously though, I’ve been on GoM since release and its crazy actually having people on each map. I’d say our fairweathers are out in force. I’m impressed with HoD and SF continuing the good fight and I hope things will be more balanced in the future.

Thanks for the link Manoa, I hadn’t seen that.
@Kreese I agree, they shouldn’t be able to deal damage while buffed, at any rate it shouldn’t be possible to jump in and out of determined territory so easily. Makes people like me that wanna see all 1 color on the map pull their hair out.

Anyways, I’m having fun fighting you guys: Ran into an SF mesmer that I dueled for at least 10 mins but just couldn’t beat, when he downed me he saluted, left me alive, and went his own way. I love moments like that in WvW

So sick of people using the determined exploit in vale and water supply camps. Ran into a group of 3 SF from a guild I believe was called called LERN doing it in HoD bl. I understand the allure but seriously? That’s not how WvW was intended. Such a disappointment, and I know its done across the board (I’ve seen HoD and GoM do the same) and will continue to be exploited until its fixed.

Due to changes with my internet service provider I’ve been “commanding” without my tag on a lot lately (hate to disconnect and have everyone run around like chickens with their heads cut off). I’ve found that, without that blue tag looming over my head, people are a lot more willing to offer their often helpful suggestions rather than just go with what I say. I’ve actually learned a few new tricks this way.
So yeah, definitely try and earn respect and show leadership skills now before you have your tag, you’ll learn a lot from people as you go along.

Hey SF, GET OUT OF MY BORDERLANDS! >:O
~~Sincerely,
kitten off GoM Defender
In all seriousness though, appreciate your tenacity GoM barely in the lead right now, lets keep the great fights going.

Stop drawing attention to this! haha…I enjoy having Some kind of purpose in WvW.

Let the games begin had fun this evening in SF bl. Definitely gonna be an interesting week.

My pets are:
Wolf: Balto
Raven: Thats so
Armorfish: Blastoise
Shark: Bruce

I definitely noticed a huge population increase for AR today. It’ll make things interesting for us in GoM, that’s for sure.

I really hope for some more ranger love soon as well. Particularly weapon updates.
It’s a bummer when your favorite class is getting less focus with updates but I’m sure they’ll get around to us. Guess we aren’t quite as pressing as bigger issues with other classes.

I agree with what a few others have mentioned, the world is breathtakingly beautiful and I’d love to be able to interact with it more fully. I’d like to see more options to interact with my environment and npcs with more meaningful dialogue or perhaps something as simple as stock answers that are better personalized to their areas.
In my home instance for example I wouldn’t mind hearing the townspeople say things like “Welcome home, Hero” “Commander eh?…I remember when you were just a street rat.” or something (less cheesy) along those lines, depending on where I am in my personal story.

This fan made trailer has always been my personal favorite, although its mostly just action shots, not a lot of depth into the story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOYP4ViTYzU
