Guild Wars 2

This has to seriously be the most kittened thing I’ve seen you guys suggest ever! Like the game doesn’t have enough cannons and mortars already.

Lost for words…

Stop reworking, scrapping stuff, moving launch dates and promise us even more hot air. Just start delivering (promised) content.

Happened to me as well, twice in 3 games. Right after hitting emerald. Queued for both Stronghold and Conquest but I do believe in both cases we were playing Stronghold when it happened.

Surely more people want these glasses back in the store, come on peeps…

Team, I’m missing out here ;_;

If you try, good luck!

A couple of my friends just got really lucky it seems and had a pair given to them.

One had to get really angry and received a pair, one mentioned he was an american hero and got a pair mailed to ’m, another friend just got a pair given to her for rp reasons and the rest of the team tried to obtain a pair but got denied.

I think only 1 person had actually lost them. There is a lot of love for the bunny ears and the wide rimmed glasses, please let us obtain them!

I’ve literally been trying to ask customer support for help for many months. I wasn’t able to purchase them when they were originally released.

And what makes it worse, friends of mine have posted tickets and received them these last few months. One actually received them yesterday. I want a pair… really really badly

Let us purchase them please!

I really think it’s time to throw these bad boys back on the store. I’ve been waiting a long as time to be able to purchase them and I’m sure customer support is sick and tired of me, my fiends and the community posting a million tickets about them too.

I don’t understand why these things aren’t in the shop, I can guarantee you they’d be selling like crazy. We have money and we want to spend it…

Plz Anet…. just… come on.

Seriously, this was the only thing I’ve been enjoying these last few weeks, what am I going to be doing until you guys fix it? -_-

it doesn’t surprise me this happened…they had a reputation for drama in WoW too

http://afkgamer.com/archives/2008/03/13/death-taxes-guild-drama/

publicly shamed one of their own guildmates back in the day

The bigger picture that nobody is paying attention to here is the the culture of Anet employees harassing and bullying the players. Despite the fact that team leads and people you EXPECT to be protecting the customers are the ones involved.

The big picture that nobody is paying attention to?

Basically DnT was invited to help with organizing a party and they drank all the alcohol before the party had even started.

The party peeps who just showed up are wondering where the booze is and Anet is in their right to point at DnT who are clearly still hoarding the empty bottles on the couch over there.

DnT has shown with the way they gave themselves props to not to fit the requirements of what Anet is looking for. The privilege was given to DnT to participate in the beta testing and they are in their right to take it away too. Anet is allowed to share their concerns and are basically letting people know what they’re expecting from future testers.

I personally may not care much for world firsts but I have a bunch of guild members that enjoy the competitive aspect of the games by either participating in spvp, speeds runs or world firsts.

There is a lot of pride at stake and people are just feel cheated, this is something a lot of players have been working towards and have looked forward to doing.

Not to mention, this conversation has been going for a while and lets be real… a lot of players had already openly expressed their concerns with how the raid testing was handled. If DnT wanted to be a classy guild and earn the respect of the community they should have done what they could to help the community with achieving their world first kills and not claim it for themselves.

Still nothing on this? Come on team!

It’s the reason why people stack on tier 1 servers, it’s simply the easiest way to get rewarded.

Focus on better reward system for the people who do a lot of work with less then 5 or 10 man groups, add some more objectives and I have a feeling the population will actually spread out a little better while making more servers be more competitive.

Stop rewarding the zerglings the most in world vs world. The path of least resistance…

sigh

Also… where are HD and Foxy? Both groups already outnumber us the majority of the times, think a mention should be worth it if you mention us.

Who has been gathering numbers? o_0

I picked none, looking at that dragonite though because it’s annoying as hell to score that as a guy who only roams -_-

The reason condi is rewarding right now is because you just need 1 offensive stat to do almost the same type of damage to a power style build that requires 3 stats to work.

I made the suggestion to Roy the other day about splitting condi up too where you need stats like ferocity and precision to get a more even battlefield. And lowering the base damage on condi.

Now Roy said to me that condi in larger group setups don’t match up that well but I think with the 3 stat setup it’ll be a bit more rewarding in larger group setups too. Since you can apply more pressure with a crit and a crit chance approach.

Myst.5783:

… if I start running into too many condi-bunker, troll losers I switch classes.

Anet has always been somewhat slow when it comes to explaining skills perfectly and adjusting tooltips. It’d be helpful for team members but as stated before, when you stealth yourself or your friends, it’s active…

I’m guessing the meta below tier 2 might still be power orientated in NA but the meta in tier 1 and 2 is heavy condi. The condi burst is crazier then the power burst. If you simply try to run around without SA you’ll have quite a lot of deaths when you bump into 2+

I personally really wished they would do condi the same way as they did power builds. Lower the base of condi damage and use ferocity and precision so that dire gear isn’t so OP as kitten.

I’m pretty sure it works :p

There is no such thing… promised!

>_>

<_<

Learn your class, experiment and find something that suits your playstyle. The game is all about the rock-paper-scissors so just find what you enjoy playing the most.

Poke them to see who is the weakest target and then just be patient. See what you can steal to use to apply pressure. Keep calm and don’t waste your initiative. And no matter what, don’t rush yourself…

In the current condi meta, yes…

Realist.5812:

No.

NA gold league is the only league playing 3 way fights correctly.

Having the same predictable result due to the underdogs not working together is what is hurting WvW. The servers need to be more proactive in taking down the higher ranked server.

I’ve got this on my thief, works well

4 stat pieces; like the guild commendation items.

Thieves might be nerfed every patch but not where it should get nerfed…

Kodan wars 2

/15char

Oh? Haven’t noticed a single thing. Then again, I’m too busy farming bags infront of the enemy spawn.

I’m far from happy with people coming to Blackgate from SoR or JQ and I’ve always tried to tell people to stay where they are or go help out SoR and JQ where they have a much better chance to find ‘roamers’ to fight.

And to kind of give you an idea, I personally get about 10-15 messages a week about people who want to join my guild from SoR/JQ. That’s not even mentioning how many the other guildleaders get.

It’s what I said earlier though, we have a bunch of roamers but they all seem to fight in the same zones. So you get a fight with 1 dude and others who are roaming then see a target and want to kill as well.

We’ve had a lot of peeps transfer to BG and they’ve said themselves that there was a lack of roamers on SoR and JQ but they wanted to know what it was like to be part of these roamers on BG. Always told them that it gets boring quick because there are so many of us and that we fight zergs way more then smaller sized groups.

No matter where I go with my group, we always get 2-3 people that just follow us across the map. Just a solo roamer wanting to join with another solo roamer and before you know it there is a group of 5-10

I dunno what goes on with these blobs sometimes though… I see our commanders and those from SoR and JQ do pretty stupid stuff.

Ah! Seen some Agg guys on JQ again. I guess that’s why you want us to move…

It kept players playing too, we lost a bunch of players before the announcement of ascended weapons and armor because there wasn’t a carrot on a stick in the game. It works both ways.

This happens on every server but I do think this happens more to us due to the tag we were. We’re not very popular and we understand that completely but when it does happen we do have to share a ‘wow’

Frigid, one of those things that happens a lot is that the solo roamer actually starts the fight with the group of 3-5 players. Then when the fight doesn’t go their way the run…

This is actually the most common way how we get our fights. One dude starts hitting us, changes his mind and then runs towards a tower for protection. Gets kitteny, gets caught and then ends up gloating near the spawn area. 5 minutes later you get called out on the forum for being a spawncamper

I totally agree with what Osu said, red == dead.

Poxheart.2845:

In response to something Gully said. My guldie and I actively avoid “roaming” near our spawn or on noob island because finding small fights there is impossible. Sure we may start out fighting 1 or 2 people, but it rarely stays that way for the duration. There’s almost always adds.

That said, we’ve also noticed that the maps have been pretty dead now that the leagues are over. We’re frequently outmanned during NA prime.

We’ve had the outmanned buff quite a few times last week but I agree… ruins and the tower areas are just not good places to get fights when you’re running smaller groups. We avoid those areas as much as possible.

Mindtrick.5190:

You assume to much and also trait shadow arts. Why don’t you step up and transfer. Or does a Internet community mean a lot to you, defender of blackgate and all things roaming.

Defender of Blackgate, I like that…

A wise man once sang, “$#@% with me, you know I got it…”

Just because you couldn’t handle being a glassy thief while your enemies were getting a little smarter did it mean that it was dead. You just didn’t get better

Also why do you want our attention so badly? I don’t think you’ve seen any of us for months but yet you’re still trying to get recognition. Just go play Battlefield4…

Depends on your playstyle, your ability to adjust and your ability figure out what’s going on. Most 5 man groups that get put together on forums will get blown up most of the time because your thinking the cookie cutter ways.

Peetee.9406:

Reverence.6915:

BTW SoR and JQ, you guys need more roamers. Seriously. I’m also not talking about a group of 10-15 camping outside a keep. That’s not roaming. That’s just being useless.

Pass.

I’ve fed enough bags to Riot/OPp. There’s only so many times you can die to PU mesmers , perma stealth thieves and nike warriors before you get bored and find a new hobby.

Sorry Peetee, don’t get discourage man! You’ll be happy to know that most of us are currently running much smaller groups then before too. Just can’t really afford to go bigger then 3 with these blobs.

We do have a lot of nike warriors; mainly because of the mobility. Kind of need that when fighting these blobs. One of our guys plays a necro and it gets frustrating just watching him get run over by a 40-50 man blob because there just isn’t a way out for ’m.

As for perma stealth and PU, most of the guys in my guild don’t play it because they actually hate those kind of builds themselves. We were all hoping that some of these changes on the 10th of December would fix this but it has only made it worse, go figure!

Lower tiers offer fights for only a few hours, simply don’t have the 24/7 coverage and the pace is a lot lower. Most of us roaming folk love tier 1 but nobody can deny that the blobs have been getting a lot bigger.

Also most maps have become quite stale, I can roam around on a map for 5-6 hours and just keep bumping into the same bored blob while the rest of the map is empty.

I’m not complaining, just sharing what I see… I love hanging out in the middle of blobs.
