“Banner is very useful in ressing friends. Three of your friends downed? Use a banner.”
Also might I add, it’s a fantastic DPS booster for PvE and PvP alike. Like having might and fury up at all times? Use Battle Standard.
I would love to see a trait that reduces the cooldown on our longbow abilities by 20% or so.
Fan of Fire sucks.
Also, are you really getting that much out of the longbow without gearing for condition damage?
@Sundial: A charr should be wearing heavy armor, not fragile cloth.
@Zenyatoo: The flame legion pants are pretty terrible, I’ll admit. Aside from the tail clipping, there’s the issue of the transparency right above the crotch area, as if a small portion of the pants are just … not there. Not sure if this graphical bug affects everyone, though.
Iron Legion warrior, soon-to-be commander. Naturally: Militant.
Cultural and Flame Legion armor would like to have a word with you, Xokks.
Happened to me as well, and I’m wondering the same thing (if my missing tokens might be given to me still).
They have too many maps already.
Great post, Magnus. You summed up my thoughts exactly. As a result of this terrible design, there is eventually zero incentive to fight in certain scenarios such as my own server’s this past week (Blackgate).
Crystal Desert is in first with 250,000+ points which increases at least 50,000 by the time we wake up every morning. Blackgate is in second place, but we are far enough ahead of Gate of Madness that we don’t need to worry about them taking second place. Why? Because Crystal Desert ensures that they don’t take second place by capping everything at night.
What does this mean? It means that literally no server has any reason to play World vs. World.
Crystal Desert is more than 150,000 points ahead of Blackgate due to late night zerging. There’s no way anyone is ever going to be able to catch them in score.
Blackgate, knowing that we can’t possibly catch Crystal Desert, is only worried about staying in second place. But we know that Gate of Madness, being so far behind us, don’t stand a chance of taking second place by the rematching.
Gate of Madness, being dead last with no hope of passing anybody by the time the servers are rematched, have no motivation to play because they aren’t going to be winning anything. Even if they could make a decent comeback, Crystal Desert would just zerg-rush everything in the night when nobody is online and nullify all their hard effort.
ArenaNet, World vs. World needs a change, and soon. This is ridiculous, and it’s never going to get any better unless you do something about it. Anyone else who believes otherwise is delusional, or on a top-tier WvW server with a a solid oceanic backing.
ArenaNet, you failed big time. My entire guild and I were looking forward to WvW because we thought tactics and skill were involved. But obviously the victory goes to the server with the better night presence, not the better PvPers. Until something is done to fix this inherent design flaw, WvW will always be broken and the servers without any adequate night presence will die out. After all, what are you fighting for? All your efforts will be in vain when your enemy just caps EVERYTHING while you’re sleeping.
Good job.

Introduction
Cruentum is a newer Guild Wars 2 exclusive guild that established on April 30 of 2012. We are fairly laid-back, and comprised of both strangers and close friends alike that have banded together to form a community of players who are mature, dedicated, easygoing, and focused on making a name for themselves in all aspects of the game including PvE, Structured PvP and most importantly, World vs. World.
Philosophy
Here at Cruentum we believe that, while a guild should have a strong drive for greatness, it should not be ran like a business nor should it feel like a job, where all the members are essentially expendable, replaceable, or otherwise regarded as tools for the guild’s accomplishments. We aim to give our members an open, respectable atmosphere that balances the high performance of a hardcore guild with the comfortable, personal nature of a casual or social guild.
