Guild Wars 2

Pro tip: If you enter WvW from Spvp and you alt f4 they wont get a bag. cause you wont be dead when you come back to spvp. Just in down state. been this way from day 1. just no one ever said anything. Welcome!

qq about siege in wvw is like qq’ing about burger king selling hamburgers

Nice Fight at bay on YBBL BP.. was a long hard fight. Just wondering tho..

do you really need that kind of tactics to take it??

We didn’t ask for lower ranks to fight. I rather be in ET or SF shoes then steamrolling like this. Give me 10 good defenders and a queued enemy server and I’m happy ( and 1000 supplies)

Sorry ET and SF have to deal with our fair weathers. but on the plus side.. you can farm them pretty easy.

Yep.. I see tons of wars now in wvw. guess its the new flavor of the month . But Hey…

just wondering how you can do something like this cause it seems to be broken to me.

putting an arrowcart on the wall like that and being able to hit every inch inside the fort. arrows flying sideways?

well if you cant share the secret. then the ill just wait for anet to get back to me on the support ticket. just ruin peoples fun. and the 40+ with them are just as bad

well congratulations are in order to yaks for taking there bay back a few minutes ago……me and one other from db held as long as we could at inner bay……to the commander leading it from [soul] yeah laughing at my corpse is real pro, no honor at all, you should salute the fallen brave not laugh and jump on there bodies.

Its funny you went and posted this. I was the the one that laughed on your dead body. Yes it’s true. You didnt like it did you? it’s funny cause when you and your 5 friends killed me in the camp then that was ok to laugh and dance on my grave? you get the same amount of respect as you give sir.

Now i have been dueling DB and SoS for weeks now.. and have showed great respect for them. cause they do the same. Dont cry about people laughing on your body when you do the same thing. you should learn to practice what you preach. and as a commander on yaks bend.. i like to teach other players the same. (show the same amount of respect as you get.

So for the future. if you dont like people dancing.laughing and any other emote. you should learn to do the same. you will find a lot less people will do it to you. Again.. sorry i couldnt show you more respect. i was just playing the cards you delt me.

i was thinking a dragon siege blue print. or maybe even an egg or something like that. you build the dragon egg and hatch it..and the dragon flys around the fort/keep blowing fire on the siege on the walls. maybe even get to ride it? o.0

Your screenshot doesn’t show the dark hill just north above where you were looking. That’s another spot for ballista that can fire at your location. Did you notice if there were ballistas there?

this is the basic tactic i guess for north east forts.. you keep a ballista up near the mortar. that way if they build rams you can take them out easy. so zergs speed build a ballista to take out the ballista so they can drop rams. well.. they just built the ballista. was just 1 ballista. i was able to hit it twice while it was being built. after that i shot it 5 times and couldnt hit it. his first shot took out everything. me the mortar and ballista

StormWolf.7645:

Funeral.3604:

the bolt shot is not aoe.. unless something has changed? the number 2 skill of the ballista is the only aoe skill that i know of.

Just to correct this…that is wrong. Every Ballista Attack is an “AoE”, the “General” area consists of everything in a line. This is why if you want to hit something invisible, you target something near where they were and you’ll get them.

Also: It’s worth questioning if that Damage was while Downed or not…because honestly…it looks like the first one downed you, and the 2nd one did that damage that led to you being finished. Downed Damage works different from regular damage, so it does make a difference. Also: I believe you CAN Crit on Siege, no?

you make very good points. but the shot was 17k plus 19k. not on downed. the arrowcart is what killed me while down. the person did not wait to use just skill 3. If i was trying to take out siege with a ballista. i would not use just 1 skill to do so. the screen shot kinda says it all. it was 1 shot that hit twice.. it took out the ballista and a mortar and me with 1 shot. and it wasnt a super ballista.. even if it was it shouldnt do that much dmg. as for crit. well i guess a ballista can crit. would love to know the stats on that. does it work off the user . or does the ballista have a set crit? in anycase. not calling any kind of hacks or anything. just trying to understand how a ballista can do that . i would love to get a ballista to do the same. cause it would change the way i use siege

Ninein.4782:

From my experience, it takes 2 shots from a superior ballista to take someone out. Each shot does about 1/2 to 3/4 health. Since the screen shot showed two shots, I’d think this would be legitimate.

I think op is mistaken that the ballista was a regular balista. There were two shots fired as well, not one.

your not understanding. it was 1 shot. not 2.. i didnt heal up and then get hit again. it’s was 17k and 19k together. and i know for a fact it wasnt a super ballista cause i was trying to take out the ballista with the one i was one.

i will get you a screenie of what it looked like before. just waiting for mortar upgrade. but i can say the mortar was to the left of me. i wasnt ontop of it. i was standing i guess behind the ballista .

yeah..43k while inside a golem. thats skill 3 of the ballista that does more dmg to siege. but it’s not an aoe skill.. should only do that dmg to siege. also the arrow cart was under the bridge. but i was next to a fully repaired mortar that got 1 shotted as well as the ballista i was on and me. the bolt shot is not aoe.. unless something has changed? the number 2 skill of the ballista is the only aoe skill that i know of.

it was not superior seige that hit me. i didnt get a screenie of the siege itself. but it wasnt super. and the 25 stack might… again.. i’m almost 100% sure your stats cant affect the siege. otherwise a glass cannon with 25 stack of might can knock a wall down with 5 hits from treb.. or a glass cannon golem with might stack can fart on a door and blow it down..lol i dont think it’s designed that way. only way to find out is a comment from A-Net

if you can see where i am in the picture. i was not touched untill the ballista hit me. that is the fort on the north east side. and i was untouched till the ballista hit me.. then the arrow cart after i was already dead i have 18k HP. that ballisant did just under 40k. now as far as i know. your stats or what you run should have nothing to do with the amount of dmg a siege weapon does. If A-net can comment on this. that would be great. cause that changes things alot. glass cannon siege weilders will be the new thing

i was the one in that picture, i am a guardian, fully repaired armor. it was not a super ballista. also what you dont see is that i was on a ballista and standing next to the mortar. and it all got killed with one shot from that ballista. also. i was shooting the ballista with the ballista i was on and it was taken no dmg. but his was able to one shot me. 18khp.. the ballista and the mortar

Today i seen a Sanctum of Rall player in LA on Yaks bend Server recruiting members for their server. Now to me this seems like a form of match manipulation. this is screwing up the ranking system that a-net has in place. as this week we were evenly matched. but if we lose 20 or so players. next match up we will have a hard time cause we wont be matched properly anymore.

also if they are on our server recruiting. you can bet they are on WvW watching everything we say in chat. So pls anet do something about the server transfers. make it where if you switch servers you cant do WvW for a week. or something like that. I really enjoy playing the WvW . we had good match-up the past week.
