Cool thanks.

Oozo.7856:

Just want to make sure I have this straight. We are being criticized for running 10-15 during primetime even though we spend most of our time fighting 30-40+ every single night.

@SPCA Mesmers, come on, lost to Ranger/Ele
tsk tsk

Ya it was pretty fail. I was trying out a new mantra healing build with some clerics gear…and man was it bad. Poor waff.

Yeah I am trying a troll spirit build. Cya out there.

@SPCA Mesmers, come on, lost to Ranger/Ele

SPCA Where did you go!>

@GG, Sorry we interrupted your chase of that solo Warrior. Maybe next time you’ll get him.

Ynot.8397:

I don’t really care where you guys go, just don’t bring that kittenty elitist attitude that often comes with roaming groups. No one in this thread seems to be like that, but T8 is a nice place full of rainbows, magic, and love. I enjoy it so don’t kitten it up!
<3

I only tend to troll people when we can’t find fights so I think I’m good. Gaz, you good?

I only troll when I troll so don’t have to worry about me!

Faux Sheaux.6179:

The vitality versus toughness question is a matter of how long a fight it and how much direct damage you take.

In longer fights, toughness proves more useful than vitality because you will have mitigated more direct damage in the long term than the extra health pool provides in the short.

It’s all a numbers game dependent on those two variables, so unless you give us specific amounts for each of those to crunch for actual conclusions on a case to case basis, that’s really the best way to look at it.

tl;dr Vitality is better in short fights. Toughness is better in long term. Definition of short versus long is flexible.

Sure this is true for most classes, but does having more vitality and a larger window for Barkskin to be active in change anything when you do the math?

ItIsFinished.9462:

I don’t have the numbers to back up my statement…but I am certain Toughness + Barkskin wins out. Add Protection into the mix and…yeah..

EDIT: ~but~

That is considering only physical damage. Add in conditions and it may be a different story.

Prefer Protection over Longer Regens?

Majority of my video in the sig I ran LB/GS.

Think I was 30/25/15/0/0
Gear was P/V/T with some zergs accs thrown in.

It really shines against thieves and mesmers, is ok in groups when assisting due to the 15 vuln.

Anyone ran the numbers on which is better while factoring in Barkskin?

Entropy.4732:

Just wanna welcome DR to T7! NSP and HoD are thrilled to have you on board. And god help T6 when SF moves up. Watch out for those spawn camping skritt heads.

Any decent small man roaming guilds on NSP and HOD?

Oozo.7856:

What makes no sense is you. Here is some reality for you. If a larger group is winning because of the downed state mechanic then they are not “equally skilled” to the smaller group.

That should be obvious.

Get your logic out of this thread, does not belong here.

Fact: Current downed state favors larger numbers, not skill.
Fact: Rallying off a PvE mob favors the first to be downed.
Fact: If you like the current downed state in wvw you might live under powerlines, maybe, probably, most likely.

Miss Isle of Janthir will almost certainly blow a gasket when she reads this post but I unquestionably must make the case that it is my opinion, as well as that of WvWers, dozens of guilds, and numerous zerg leaders, that we must always be looking towards the future while keeping the past in mind. Before I say anything else, I’d like to state the following disclaimer for Miss Janthir’s benefit: Warning! This post may contain untamed truths. Okay, now that that’s taken care of, let me posit the hypothesis that Miss Janthir wants me to stop trying to bring fresh leadership and even-handed tolerance to the present controversy. Instead, she’d rather I have a conniption. Sorry, but I don’t accept defeat that easily.

In the past, it was perfectly clear to everyone with insight and without malice that Miss Janthir seeks out groups of people who have united against her then tries to atomize them. Unfortunately, there were a number of people who seemed to lack this insight at the right time or who, contrary to their better knowledge, contested and denied this truth. Because we have the determination to see the truth prevail, we must never forget that her schemes raise a number of brow-furrowing questions. I’m referring to questions such as, “Why do we put up with her?” It’s questions like that that get people thinking about how Miss Janthir is willing to promote truth and justice when it’s convenient. But when it threatens her creature comforts, Miss Janthir throws principle to the wind.

I’m not normally one to criticize, but Miss Janthir just keeps on saying, “I don’t give a [expletive deleted] about you. I just want to support zerg warfare and cheap arrowcart hacks while purporting to oppose it.” Even if Darkhaven, saturnine sophisters join her band with the best of intentions, they will still tinker about with a lot of halfway prescriptions in the near future. Not all, I hasten to add, do join with the best of intentions. Her witticisms are geared toward the continuation of social stratification under the rubric of “tradition”. Funny, that was the same term that Miss Janthir’s lapdogs once used to visit misery and havoc upon countless millions. With this post, I hope I have made my views clear: Crime unpunished is crime rewarded.

Jscull.2514:

Either way, t8 will be a better place to have our pvp system because 2 servers will never move at once.

DevonCarver.5370:

We believe there is some room for improvement in the way that downed works in WvW. That being said we haven’t settled on a version that we think doesn’t create more problems than it solves. Rest assured we are looking at the way it works and as soon as we can, we will improve it.

THANKS, please fix it as quickly as you can!

I’ll give gold to help fund transfers.

WTB other 5mans to fight ><

@MoW Warrior, don’t be upset bro, there is literally nothing you can do to win. Just out comped.

Been playing this setup the last 2 days on my ranger and love it so much.
Having fun again with my ranger, can’t wait till I get better with the different weapon skills.

Thanks for sharing your video and build!

Please keep me posted how this works out, getting ready to purchase some ascended gear and on the fence what I should get.

Robert Hrouda.1327:

I never said ranger was better at insert thing here than class insert class here, which people here seem to be under the impression of. I’ve never claimed that ranger was top tier, and have repeatedly been saying rangers need help here on the forum, so I don’t seem to understand where people are getting the impression that I think Ranger is fine.
I also openly admit I’m not the best PvP guy, or WvW guy… but I do tend to hold my own when I go in and play in those areas, and I don’t feel like I’m sankittenging my team by being a ranger. Maybe I just don’t operate at the levels/tiers you all do, but I certainly try in the levels/tiers I am in, and I tend to have moderate success.

I’ll try to get better in those areas and advance before I go speaking about rangers in the future.

Thanks for the clarification Robert.

Cool videos, thanks for sharing.
Running apoth gear in WvW?

I dont typically have a problem 1v1 against thieves, you’re right to an extent that if we have all our abilities up we can do ok against them.

My main problem with them is in a group fight when 1 or 2 of my abilities are on CD. I just get rocked Steal→CND→BS which leaves me dead if not full health or pretty close if so. I don’t understand how we are more survivable at all…. please enlighten me.

Oozo.7856:

Ah, NP. :P

It’s hard to know whether to help or not sometimes. I’ve not engaged because someone was 1v1ing but then spent the next few minutes getting rage tells for not helping after they lost.

Also I was on my thief so by default had to be honor-less.
No one sends me rages tells, except Caey. ><

Nice down~!

Acelerion.6820:

Hah I love Gaz just sitting there with his arms crossed

Yeah, first fight with Xsorus I was winning pretty easily (I made a few mistakes in the fight in the movie which allowed him to get away so he could kite and heal) but Gaz backstabbed him when he was low health so I had to ditch that clip.

After that we were letting him 1v1. Gaz beat him at least once.

Sorry about that, sometimes I’m a real scumbag!

@PD, Thanks for the fun guys. Great fights.

Yes please would love more Immobilize breaks!

Davrollen.8935:

Acelerion.6820:

Im so tired of this matchup.

You’re tired? I’m tired of running into your guild group solo! :P

We’re nice ppl tho, for the most part, maybe.

What a GRIM fight

Good job IOJ the 25 of you finally got me. /golfclap

Sepsis.1564:

Why do a majority of players run in groups of 20+?

Please explain…

RTL defense.

urbanevil.7145:

Acelerion.6820:

You know if you say @mow thief that only narrows it down to about thirty people.

Lol this is true! to determine which one it is just specify Human/Asura lol.

Haha, this one was Char. Put the fight in my vid at the end.

urbanevil.7145:

@Elric, if im gonna be confused its gonna be mid air doing some sweet ninja moves!

@Gazden, i tend to engage u guys 5v1 quite a lot, can’t a brotha shoot the fair one?! All good i have fun when i see u guys.

Can’t blame you for trying…. just get on Caey first and spam HS. He loves that.

@DH & IOJ – Why you guys run away from a 1v1? Really just out there for the WXP train?

@MOW Thief, Good dual was close.

Gonna give the second build a try in WvW, any pointers on play style with it?

SNFU Mesmer, SUP BRO

<3 Gaz

Full P/V/T armor, Knights Jewels, Zerker Weapons

Acelerion.6820:

What’s it called when you chase someone out of a supply camp after 3 failed attempts. Chase them to spawn instead of capping the supply. Set up trebs, multiple ballistae, and arrow carts. Then get picked off 10 at a time from behind all while never capping the supply. Not directed at PD specifically.

I can’t begin to count how many times we get chased off an objective and instead of capping it the zerg follows, gets extended and picked apart, and never gets what they came for.

People hide behind this “for the realm” try hard facade when really all they want is to zerg people over for that sweet wxp.

W/E Dude IM FOR THE REALM ALWAYS

SNFU Mesmer,
I know you love us, but not gonna kill anyone with that setup.

<3, Gaz

Well if you keep running away from me of course I’m not going to kill you.

Yeah it was me who kept running away :P

Loved all the midget ninja flips. A+

SNFU Mesmer,
I know you love us, but not gonna kill anyone with that setup.
