Guild Wars 2

I personally haven’t run into a lot of banner problems but it is really easy to see how banners effect outnumbered fights for both sides. If you’re the smaller group with banners, you can one shot the enemy zerg. If you are the zerg with banners, then you really need to reevaluate how you play WvW if you lose. If both sides have banners the zerg should win but it is necessary for the smaller group to have banners to stand a chance. Unless the zerg is actually full of first time players.

For me though, there already has been “needed things” in zerg fights since the game came out etc. like guardians, certain builds, invisibility. Seems we have to add banners to that. I have played since headstart, I’ve been in multiple fight guilds, and in my opinion, banners don’t really take away skill. Most classes press a couple of buttons at most in zerg wars and use a few more in certain situations. (I have played every class in group combat WvW and know the rotations.) Banners are just another thing to look for in a comp, like revs were at the beginning of HoT. Anet might need to tone down how hard it is to kill the banners because the banner carriers survivability is way to strong in a 50v50 situation though.

I also like the idea of only letting the outnumbered sides be able to active tactivators, but why would WvW players buy the expansion for wvw upgrades when you can only use them if your server is outnumbered…. Anet rushed the banners out the door like a bunch of other HoT stuff. The WvW overhaul wasn’t ready and they needed something to seem alluring for WvW guilds to work towards. Banners have become their own class because of how strong they are. They need balance updates just like any other class or at least make it to where a 60 man can’t have banners against a 10 man.

Did Veloka just become our server’s mascot?

and Rimmy, Don’t turn me on by saying missionary all the time….
