Guild Wars 2

Can someone stroke out from nerd rage? This thread may answer that question…

Applying AOE damage directly underneath the mortar in the southwest tower on the Alpine map appears to cause damage to the mortar above it. In the attached screen grab there is a smaller red circle above the larger one underneath the outcropping. It looks like the AOE is wrapping around the structure.

Who cares? It’s meaningless anyway..

Pin sniping is a good tactic, especially in EOTM. I’ve seen an entire 30 man zerg waypoint shortly after the commander is taken out. If you want to succeed in a zerg fight you have to learn the art of durable cohesion.

My internet connection averages 18 Mbps up and 11 Mbps down and yet my ping in WvW averages 400 ms or more. That’s pretty bad. 2 to 3 second skill lag and lots or rubber banding (usually ending with my demise) is seriously dissuading me from playing this game,

OP: ah the melodious sounds of Planck length violins playing….

I think the outnumbered “buff” is actually self-perpetuating: A lot of people jump into WvW see the outnumbered icon and then leave. It needs to actually have real meaning to counter this phenomenon.

One idea that was brought up long ago was to make the outnumbered “buff” override RI. If you are outnumbered RI is effectively ignored. The idea being that the larger force would have to split up to defend their territory against a smaller force that could immediately take back anything gained by their opponent.

Having played this game for nearly 3 years I’ve come to the conclusion that getting everyone on TS for tactical coordination is not going to happen. Lots of folks don’t like to use TS for whatever reason (insufficient hardware, anonymity protection, laziness etc).

What about integrating speech to text functionality into the application (or as an Overwolf extension)? That way commanders could “multicast” in both TS AND chat. This would satisfy both camps and greatly enhance large scale game play.

OP another huge factor is burnout: lots of WvW regulars has stepped away from the Mists (and the game itself for that matter). I’m a huge WvW fan but the lack of meaningful updates and the fact that I finished the tourney meta weeks ago has put damper on my enthusiasm for the game. I usually only log in three times a week instead of every day and even then I stick around just long enough to finish my dailies..

“League Fatigue”? Yea..you could say that..

I think [Outnumbered] should negate [Righteous Indigation]: that way the zerg blob will have to actively guard what they take since the buff allows the other side to reclaim structures immediately. The more they take, the more resources they have to expend to keep it.

So is there going to be any changes to the [OUTNUMBERED] “buff” after the armor nerf? Not that it was all that useful to begin with…
