Guild Wars 2

People! I am having fun!

I’ve been having fun, just so everyone knows.

Go fight PAXA. They’re fun. And by fun, you’re going to get stomped by an effective team build. There are some awesome 3 way fights that go on most nights. You should join in.

I will look for them, I am not worried about being the absolute best, I just want to challenge myself in game and have worthy competition. I look forward to seeing them around.

Thanks again, for all the feedback.. can’t wait to see some of you in the wvw.. from the fights I’m getting so far this seems much more my style. Encountered a few “big” groups but it was never more than 20 players. Really enjoying my first night so far, the fights are usually 1-2v1-2 or 1v5 at most much more what I’m looking for. Beware HoD and ET ;P

Yay I guess, some other try hard can come close this post or whatever you kitteners do.

Ok I am now a proud member of the Ferguson’s Crossing, will be changing signature momentarily.

Well I am making the move to Ferguson’s Crossing, 1-2 people may be joining me from guild but that will be the most if any. I should be there within 30m or so to help dominate the faces of everyone. Thanks for all the feedback .

Bump, will be making a decision within the hour, but I’m still trying to decide between FC and ET.. I like the fact that they have both been in the tier for so long which suggests they aren’t victims of the bandwagon fault in this game.

Ok the current tier 8 if I made my decision now will be with one of those teams, just hoping for a bit more feedback so I can get a consensus in case some people are giving inaccurate details based on personal feelings.

I am going to leave this thread going until sometime later tonight so I can hopefully get some more feedback, I will make my decision around 10pm-midnight Eastern tonight. HOpefully I get more info here so I’m not just picking at random and that turning into a bad choice for what I want.

I have been on maguuma since a month into the game maybe with guild and while I love playing with those guys I have contact with them outside of game. Maguuma has increasing fallen in love with zergs and zerglings to where that is all anyone does “outside of a few guilds” and my own. I am looking to transfer to t6-8 server that has no chance of moving up because of bandwagon situations that feels they have more actual fighting than zerging. Anyone have any decent suggestions? I don’t care if you’re winning or losing your tier just looking for first hand information. Thanks in advance.
I want to make it clear, it is just me that is moving my guild is staying where they are.

Go to t8, either ET or FC (most probably FC even though they are mid-range right now). HoD would be viable as well, but less than ET or FC.

Zergwars happen in all tiers, (yes even t8), but there are dedicated roaming guilds there that will probably accommodate what you are looking for. T7/T6 is pretty zergy during peak times as well.

I realize every tier will have some zergs, and I’m fine with it happening here and there.. but when the vast majority of a server does nothing but I lose interest quickly. When I have to call out that something the zerg just captured over and over and over and most of the time nothing happens or they come back do nothing for the fortification and don’t even finish killing the players and then when I point them out I’m called irrelevant and pointless because my opinion goes against the zerg/wxp train’s view every time, I think my play style will be better suited somewhere else. It is a server effort, and outside of the few wxp/karma trains I’m not feeling it . Other than a few guilds I can think of and my own.

I’m a mesmer, I run condition/confusion build… I laugh at you who can’t get around it. Hell I even laugh at all these people saying they never die to confusion, because I guarantee if you ran into me you’d be dying as often as .. you run into me. Get over it l2p.

Thanks Devon, and I guess the rest of the team too!

Hey, did you guys know there’s another server in this match up? Last Stand or something…?

kerona.3465:

If you hate our server so much get off of it and stop posting on our behalf. Geebus.

If you are referring to me, who said I hate Maguuma? The fairest Hackuuna and I share the same opinion of this server. People sit in towers going “Omg, 60 man zergs..”, while both of us (and AoN by proxy) sit there thinking it is a lot of bags…. I <3 DE|RP, the true work horses of Maguuma… I just care very little for the other false posturing that goes on, and there aren’t people with the kind of ethic to make something like BT and AoN work besides perhaps Tsazari and Rebel.

Have you ever played during oceanic prime with the Maguuma Aussie commander? We are constantly fighting in the open field as well as towers and he treats all invaders as walking loot bags as well as plowing face first into said 60 man zergs. And since it’s oceanic prime, it goes without saying that we are almost always outnumbered yet we farm everyone that we can before we lose the tower/keep. Saying that perhaps only two people on the entire server exist that could do that is an incredibly sweeping generalization. Maguuma players are generally laid back and not that big of try-hards to do something continually like zerg busting or raid times. So yes, it’s a matter of work ethic, but also interest.

Thank you, all the buddy buddy posts kind of makes me sick, even when from my own server. You have saved me posting most of that.

Alodar.5794:

If you’re losing to a confusion mesmers, you’re failing at this game, terribly. It’s YOUR fault…

Learn to remove conditions. If your group isn’t spec’d to remove large amounts of condition… YOU are doing it wrong.

I would be embarrassed to die to confusion… I am NOT a mesmer.

It’s a VERY simply ability to A) Remove and Take no damage from.

So many people must fail at this game, with the combination of shatter/heals removing conditions and prolonged and traited confusion stacks.. lol at the numbers I get.. I guess having my 28k health doesn’t hurt either. ;P

I’ve roamed on all of my classes listed in my signature area, I have the most fun on mesmer so I play it exclusively now.. but I think any class if played properly can roam the same as any other.

I just wanted to bring the YB into the conversation, and this seemed the best way to go about it.

Yak’s Bend setting up siege at the orb guards for my 7 man group holding their north for 40m . Nothing spectacular but we decided as a group it was cheap to be able to build back there. I also will point out it didn’t work, well until 20 others came from the portal.
Well played yak’s bend lol.

Kovu.7560:

So someone asks why the Oceanic crew hangs around DB while our NA is weak and they have less competition.

The NA crew answers, they can’t accept that answer.
Someone from another server who knows what she’s talking about answers, they can’t accept that answer.
Someone posts a video with with an Oceanic response, they can’t accept that answer.
An Oceanic posts in this topic, they can’t accept that answer.

Holy flamin’ hell, get over it.

On a sidenote, Maguuma zerg pvd’d two of our fully upgraded keeps with Golems earlier, one owned by my guild with buffs. Should I kitten about it? At least Yaks are actually fighting for Bay. =)

~ Kovu

On another side note, apparently it was very well owned by your guild. When my guild takes towers/keeps we don’t lose that kitten. That is ownership, not claiming and doing whatever it is you guys do.

LOL Kaineng guy trying to defend DB “SEA” players. lol anyway now that I’ve put this here hopefully it will keep the kitten going for a while till I can get back from RL fun see you guys in game.

Can we just let them answer?

The majority of them do not speak English.

To everyone else:

The SEA guilds on Dragonbrand are incredible. Don’t diss them. They may ‘PvD’ at times, but that’s because SEA is DB’s Prime Time. It’s not their fault that they aren’t paired up with a stronger SEA presence.

Dissing Dragonbrand for having a stronger SEA presence than NA is just ridiculous. The world is round. Some people live on the other half. Just get over it!

There are times when DB’s SEA presence has been tested – And they still came out just fine. They had more of a fight, so the point spreads weren’t as huge, and yes, they still lost because they had more opposition at their time frame. NA needs a lot of help. A lot. But that’s not their fault either. The diehards have stayed through thick and thin. Including their SEA players. That is respectable. It’s server pride. I left DB for reasons of my own. (Wanted to run with old friends, and didn’t really have anyone in WvW when I was on to play). They stay because they want to run with their friends and build up their community. Everyone has server pride. Everyone ‘chest thumps’ when they are winning.

oh also… hearing someone who bailed on their server talk about server pride and it being respectable can just save their fingers some typing.

The world is round, and there are many different people on many different parts of it. I play on a NA shard.. guess what I’m in NA.

Oh yeh, I have been on all week for t3 and this matchup. T4 was very boring .. I’m just having fun pointing out things and watching the contradictions and nonsense fly.

I like how people I’ve never heard of , or seen in forums as I’ve played these servers welcome me to things.

I’m sure it is, but if we lost our outside of NA coverage and you lost yours… what do you think would happen? Pointless? yes.. Reality that too.

Is WvW more of a PvE activity for DB SEA players?

When mag hits 400-500 ppt in unbalanced matches, we actually lose players because it is very boring and usually pvd.

How do you keep interest in logging in every night to wipe the maps and then log off? Is it strictly for karma/xp? You guys have been at it for many, many months now.

You’ve got the point. Deep and penetrating. These players wont get bored of this form of pve farming.

haha haters gonna hate, we’re going to continue on despite your poor attitude. Keep up the pvforum lolz!

You misunderstood something. I am not even on one of the servers of your tier. I just know little more about the habit of my compatriots.

lol ur post should come with a disclaimer. Either way I strongly defend our SEA they are amazing players and an integral part of DB. Those who bare the mark of the Dragon; I salute you!

They really are an integral part of DB, without them you’d be in a much lower tier and grats on taking empty keeps at 6am eastern time.

ah the good ol PvF we have grown to love from mag. where are the flame rams in camps and the middle of no where? I fear mag is losing their kewl so sad.

Are you saying it isn’t true? Do you not appreciate them enough to acknowledge their importance to DB?

If my server lost a lot of players, we would be in a lower tier. That’s how it works.

I guess the point doesn’t get through to some people, North American server dominated by non North American players, or something like that.. who knows I’m kind of high.

lol no, that is all.

I do not play with the zerg, other than I’d say maybe 1% of the time when I am drinking and bored or tired. I also don’t give a kitten about the titles, I do think its kind of silly to have carrots that only kittenty zerglings can ever reach though. Laughable really. Anet tell us more about how you favor unskilled zergs.

ShaunZ.1098:

I find chess dull, but people still play that …..

Chess is awesome, don’t hate !! Wait this thread is about wvw? I play wvw so I can kill players.. and groups with less players than them. I mostly play to kill players though. I die sometimes too but we wont talk about that.

Most people here don’t even know how to turn auto-attack off apparently, and we’re supposed to nerf confusion for the likes of them? LOL l2p

Ventari.8257:

youve taken towers, or camps with no players defending.

Well 1 player makes no difference in me taking a tower or camp on my mesmer, but yes players do throw a wrench into soloing on the other toons, when I’m faced with more than 2 guards.

Yeh, you are right… my thief can’t do it and my guardian.. I’ve never tried but he is the p/t/v I’ll give that a go sometime as well just so I can find if its a mesmer thing or whatever… <— that was me talking about soloing a tower… I can solo camps on any of my toons and my thief is glass cannon so its pretty easy if he can survive solo.

Simple fix to reduce zergs now that there are wvw points/xp to grind… make each location/event worth a set amount of points and have it so 1 person gets 100% but if 2 people are there they split it and if 3 people are there they 33% etc… this right here fixes zerging for the sake of zerging. You will still have some zerging to take keeps and possibly towers and such but if you don’t like zergs attacking keeps you don’t belong in wvw.. any kind of defended keep takes more than a couple players.

The abilities are fine and all that jazz… but for what some of you are saying, yeh when I am with 1-2 of my guildmates we usually just ignore guards and kill players… but I take camps and I have taken towers solo so l2spec I guess.

After the patch I have no issues with lag or culling large scale or small skirmishing. You guys have other issues if you are experiencing those… it is also possible you posted after the first patch of the day and decided to cry before they stopped spitting out new builds. All good for me and everyone in guild who was having issues.

The swords are fine as is, stop complaining and step it up a bit.

Had a lot of fun on CD BL tonight with our 4 man group, great fun. Will be checking out SBI BL some this week. Have not been around much the last several weeks… rl and all but glad to be back hope this weeks fun continues.

I have not been playing for several days now, culling is not the only issue but is one of the primary concerns I have especially since it is not a new one. Seems like a large group of my guild has either quit playing this and are diving into real life or there is also a group of us just messing around in other games together because not much is worse than this one at the moment.

With many more of these threads it is going to get to the point where apparently everything needs to be nerfed if you listen to bad players, if that is the case why nerf anything? Everything can be strong… l2p.

ViperWire.4261:

I thought Kaineng guild [RE] was good

But then I remember them from Darkhaven

Now…..they send 15-20 to wipe on our treb because they didn’t think we had siege??

T1 tactics

It is what I’ve been saying all week, of course I was banned for pointing out the obvious truth. RE is not what they used to be… not even a shadow of it.

Adaneshade.2409:

Log on fiction, let’s go ^.^

omw… where to? I am loading into your BL now… just give me a place.

RE guild, I would like a message from your leader, I think he needs to put you all on a timeout from posting.. all you guys are doing is consistently making your guild look like a bunch of bandwagoners, you saying what attitude Kaineng has lol shut up. I guess I’ll never see the RE of old again. Now it is filled with kitten and players who run from fights.

Klaster.2605:

If a lot of people come we might get the queue bug. :P So maybe we shouldn’t ask people to come over.

This. I don’t want other servers infecting us with their queue bug.

You CD guys are fun, but as I posted before in another thread, I think the queue “bug” and the paid transfers and the “new culling” are all in unison to give anet ways to more easily talk away problems while being able to simply fix the queue with a few lines of code and get support from the community since they have no idea what to do on culling, and they want people to transfer while they work on it so they can make more money.

Man if anet would work on fixing their problems even half as much as they worked on censoring speech in their forums, we all may be having fun.

Mayoken.9851:

Fine, that works with me. I personally am not good at 1v1 or 5v5, however, I do have a few sPvPer’s that would love your challenge.

lol see this is what I was saying yesterday, I do not know which guild you are from cause you either don’t have a tag or I didn’t give enough of a kitten to check it. Either way Kaineng has horrible players who blob together and can’t do jack solo. To what I said in another post a few pages back… the only wm I’ve seen in the little bit I’ve been able to play so far was the 3 players I ran into and beat 1v3… great guild ya got there. When the 1v1’s are over I’ll edit this to make it server.

LOL accidental transfer to kaineng just before deadline. I don’t buy it.

I have already went from nothing but wvw to wvw/pve money making/ queue sitting… if it continues I may just find another game to split time with. Maybe a few months down the line all the current devs will get serious about keeping us in the loop and fixing things .

8D seems like today was the day for epic keep defenses. kain was in on mag EB keep multiple times and wiped there also. i never get why a zerg on our wall will run ~2k distance, leave a bunch of their own downed player, then turn around and go back the same way only stopping when turning around and ended up wiping the other half of the zerg that didnt wipe on 1st pass. they only atk people in front of them 2, people aoeing from under the or across the wall doesnt gets touched, nor those that got behind them.

Because they are botting.

They’re not doing anything human players couldn’t, and their style of play mulches disorganised mobs extremely quickly. The only thing that makes me even slightly suspicious is that WM keeps doing it when the opposition doesn’t provide a target for the zergball and rapidly whittles down their numbers from the sides. However, that could easily be because they’re not used to encountering that kind of resistance and don’t know how to deal with it rather than anything to do with bots.

So you’re saying it is more likely they are just bad than botting? lol WORD
