This is what i run on my gaurd in pvp great counter for thiefs and mesmers as you have 3 gap closers should be able to drop most classes i do. Bow got tired and slow as it got nerfed over and over again and everyone knows its tells by now. People say gaurd is a face roll class it can be when your fighting players who are not that good same on any class, this build played right should be able to face tank condi necroes as well (#hint your blocks remove conditions). Give it a shot let me know what ya think.
Mission, character classes, time, terrain, what does the enemy have for classes, play the odds, if you just punched in a metabattle build play unranked and learn it a few times before ya do ranked your team will thank you.
Thief I’m convinced 90% of them are garbage but if ya 1 of the 10% on your team they can make the match for you, decaping plus1ing etc however they know if the enemy team is a bunker ele a bunker druid 2 DH (your hard counter) and a scrapper maybe play a diff class your good at.
Gaurdian meditrapper typically i nice niche class as ya can do high dps use your utitlities/traps to stay alive and still dish it outnot to mention cc from your traps if your sloted for it. Bunker you soak damage, support your team and hold points . Also highly telegraphed(nerfed too hard imo )and most veteran players know your tells.
Warrior’s thanks to recent buffs very viable in condi mode and sometimes power good combo of tankiness and being able to dish it out . Things to note if you have no ele to clear your condis on your team and they have 3 condi necros and a mesmer on the other side you’ll just kill your teamates when it gets given back to yourside.
Rev’s very high dps good utility skills and cc in power mode and an there a condi version too though not to popular this season. Power revs are weak to condi pressure unless played perfect.
Engi typically power scrapper is whats played lots of dps cc and descent healing if played well can be good at just about everything but it takes practice as with most classes (i played unranked for 6-10 matches to get the hang of mine and im still by no means perfect ).
Ranger some version druid bunker seems to be what i run into most of the time hard as heck to kill if you do your skill rotations right. But ya can spot a newbie who has not practiced a mile away as the never actually fight on point.(yes i know search and rescue in a safe spot but sometimes ya need to actually be on the point).
Mesmer not just as easy as face rolling your keyboard in that meta chrono condi build i seen em played so well they can 1v3 and win. Porthole can be very useful and helping your team rotate and be were they need to be to be the most useful.
Necro good mix of bunker condi cc (via fears)and dps when in shroud they gonna take a while to kill unless there very bad but its not impossible to kill either.
Ele you’d be hard pressed to run into one not running dagger/focus bunker support
build, overcharging air is great for interupting ressing players and securing stomps, not to mention the grp condi clear and heals are usually some of the best ya run into this season.
The matches depending on map vary on how to win as different pve options come into play depending on what map you get. Just to break it down to game play what the classes on your side do and what the classes on there side usually do and play the class that will best help your team . Secure stomps with invulns/stability and cc the players trying to rez downed players same goes when you trying to rez your own players. BE MAP AWARE you can see your teams hp and were they are don’t run into a fight that already lost play to your teams favor if you got a guy who runs far keeps 3 guys busy for 2-3 min solo there is NO reason you should not have home and mid, and rotate for crying out loud if you had 3 rush home and you just killed them with 3 of yours good chance there going to there home or mid were should you be going ? maybe don’t play your thief ( which you know your super good at when the other team is trapperDH and bunker class heavy you wont 1 burst anything and if they camp their home your kinda useless). Please please practice your class before you type in a metabattle build and go ranked do unranked a few time get the hang of it. This is by know means the bible on how to pvp i know im not perfect and theres always room for improvement I practice in my guilds arena and unranked when i learn a new class and even to stay descent on what i play you can always get better. If any of you pvp pros have any tips to add please do. Shoot me a tell if ya want to 1v1 sometime im not the best but i do ok.
This is ment to be somewhat constructive so anything ya can add or that i missed would be great to hear.
Bump for some good folks

NSP is cool but dont try to hard was the impression i got DR in all honesty is a bunch of trash but they just outnumber ppl with the guilds they have bought in the last month the original dr lol guilds like RED if there around you in wvw is like having a handicap. DH has descent covereage the guild SoTD cover’s during the day and they have good fighters in NA prime
DR is the current bandwagon server i hear there giving 50 gold to help with transfer per person id check there
Stop your frikin crying on my classes forums its not our fault that you CANT beat a war with your CURRENT build. Wars are not all powerful if you get beat by one with a hammer you just play very bad you cant see the most highly telegraphed/low damage att/stun in the game comming and dodge you deserve to get kded or stunned. In short its your lack of skill thats killing you not the “op war” go troll your own classes forums forums.
Love this idea please do.
A guy who comes to a diff classes forums says they should be nerfed then crys about the hate… no talent and a hypocrite lol learn to play Sages.
Says the perma stealth thief who can reset a fight when ever they want not forget blind spamming, says the clone a second shatter mesmer that can drop a tank spec war to 2 k hp in 5 sec and leave him with still 3-5 conditions to deal with, says the tankiest self healing gaurdian class almost infinite cond removal/stability, says the kiteing ranger who can just stealth away when it not going his way, says the fear/blinding spamming necro who can switch to an alternate hp pool when ever they want, says the zerker ele who if ya lag or forget to dodge there firestorm hits for 4 k on 3k plus armor, and then theres the 2 shot zerker or bunker for even a 60 man zerg cant bring down build engi and even though the most telegraphed class in this game that just got a nerf can stay alive a while and do cc with poop for damage and your to slow between the ears to dodge, slot a stunbreaker or just respec you come here and cry nerf maybe learn to play your class if you stand still when a hammer trains comming @ you, It’s your lack of skill that gets you killed not and op hammer war.
I use it on my wellomancer when defending cast on large grps at the gate after you strip boons with well of coruption right after ya cast spectral wall then drop well of sufferring/marks on em get alot of numbers that way, since they keep getting feared into the well.
Hi I’m Maximus been with a wvw Guild for a long time just rescently left as i dont care for the direction they went. I have a geared out War and Necro willing to change builds as needed. Looking for a guild that rallies 5-9ish cst to go fight in wvw, love to fight will be then happy to die so my guild can win, looking for a guild geared towards offense, I know how to stack and can command if needed though i dont much since we were on DH (i love fighting DH) a long time ago got sick of getting hell for doing what no one else wanted to do. So if want a fighter shoot me a pvt msg here or in game or reply to my thread.

Well this week so far, HOD = BEST pve wvwers i have seen, during prime time in NA they have a good presence but zerg vs zerg heck no they will only fight if they can have atleast 6 ACs covering them even when they out number you 2 vs 1 or more. SF really loose the zerker gear you will notice you’ll live longer then 1-2 hits, but you guys hit hard as hell for like 3 seconds till you die and rez 5+ of us. DH doing great when we have ppl on despite arguing with one another we always find time to wipe SF or HOD when they interupt us:)

Still sounds like perma stealth/blind spamming thief tears to me, heres some advice drop your zerker gear get soldiers ruins maybe you wont get roflstomped cause youll be able to live thru the stuns and run away like most thieves do, i mean kitten , theres a class that in a certain build that can kill me if i miss a dodge roll “o no” warrirs had the short end of the stick thru atleast the first 6 months of this game, and now your mad cause YOUR character isnt almighty supreme god. ALL builds have a weakness/strengths personally i think Anet is doing a descent job and balancing out the classes to some extent, I play a hammer war and were not unbeatable. What you need to decide is what you want to be good at. In zerg on zerg in wvw you running zerker ruins and hitting like a truck means nothing cause anyone with some toughness can 2 shot you, down you and stake you, and when your dead you rez 5+ enemy players who were downed who tagged you.

thief trolls go back to your own forums not Anet’s fault some of us got smart ran toughness instead of zerker gear now go spam blind with perma stealth elsewhere.

On the Kaineng server if possible have a decked out 80 warrior in all exotics and got a Gaurd close to 60 that my main focus lately(as the devs leave wars gimped in wvw) just hunting a casual guild with fun ppl to play with i do nights and weekends mainly in cst
and am going to play ESO when its released, my only requirment is the guild speaks english.
Ive used my animal forms for 2 diff things helps for soloing skill point bosses in pve specially the wolf cause the howl causes sick regen in WVW as most who wvw know almsot everyone are ranged aoe and like to stack and cast in one area from a safe distance 90% of the time if they take even a lil damage they run, here i use bear or snow leapord, bear looks the most intimidating imo and it has a nice charge that throws your target into the air and knocks themdown there roar gives 3 might stck i belive to your allies get it out of your head that you should be unbeatable in animal form but when you crash through enemy lines and they all focus you if your teams not a bunch of sissies they push in when eyes are on you, in short i think they make good line breakers, also useful for running down ppl trying to run away specially the leapord form as it has a charge and a pounch that pins down a target.

80 Norn Warrior
Crystal Desert
I play Norn warrior and every other race can run faster then us, i think if there gonna let all the little people run faster then us being twice there size atleast should get bonuses like damage x2 vs charr x3 vs human and elf and X10 vs asura i had this discusion in game with a person who plays an Asura and he likened it to trying to kill an ant witha golf club meanining that there hard to hit and might miss a few times, however i did mention that when ya do hit the ant its dead in one shot:)
ok so which servers are green just want to finish map completion ?
