So we busted butt, got into gold tier, yay! I know for a fact that a lot of us busted our rear ends trying to defeat servers with a larger regular WvW community, and we came in sixth. But we were still in gold tier, and we get shafted. Gee, makes me think that maybe we shoulda just stayed out of WvW. So who was it that decided that the cut off was before silver tier, leaving a server in gold out in the cold? If we were in silver tier, I would still be disappointed, but not completely flabbergasted.
And I can guarantee that we will lose more people that WvW regularly so then we can look forward to being face-rolled as time goes on. I’m thinking maybe there should be just WvW servers, or maybe a different set up because there is a royal stink to only the servers with the higher population to get any kind of “real” prize.
Look at Ascii’s build. It’s not too bad, I run a modified version. Not stellar solo,(my version) but pair me with a guardian or a pure condi build, necro or mesmer and we rip through camps and whatnot like it’s cool. (this was built pre-ferocity, not sure if he’s changed it any)
Oh, so you mean fight ala GW1! Stand there and lob stuff in someone’s general direction and hope it sticks to them? Wow, wonder if I should stayed there…… ;P
The flesh golem is bugged in WvW as well. Hubby noticed in PvP a couple of patches ago that the flesh golem runs around like an ADD 3 yr old, doesn’t attack anything, just does one of two things. Stands there and drools or follows you around, “lalala wheeee this is fun mom!” Not recommended for PvP or WvW, and makes me very disinclined to use any other minions. They should fix it or remove it, it wastes space in my skill selection
Those of us that are altoholics can clear the zone for the umpteenth time with none of the debilitating lag that has been there, especially since the megaserver.
Your lag isn’t necessarily related to the train. If you can’t handle QD without lag then I bet you lag like crazy in WvW. The lag is probably more on your end. But if you want to justify the change by screaming lag, go for it.
I actually do better in WvW than QD. But really cool of you to zero in on that, thank you!
I laughed so hard when I heard the news! Way to go Anet!
This is all positive. Those of us that are altoholics can clear the zone for the umpteenth time with none of the debilitating lag that has been there, especially since the megaserver. New players can look around, figure things out without getting their head bitten off for starting something without the “permission” of the almighty train. And newbie questions will be answered by any vet doing a key run or map clearing.
And let me say, if this is what makes people so mad they rage quit, I would have to say good riddance and thank you. You were clogging up our game any way.

I personally hadn’t heard about the loot nerf, but have heard some express that it was too hard. But I have also heard complaints that the drops in Queensdale are boring and stale. Maybe it is simply people not being able to be happy with what they have…
. As for the zergfest, they tried to do that with the last few installments of the Living Story, but a LOT of people QQ’d so they changed it several times to appease them. Can’t ave things where we have to be organized and work together, no, just throw a huge group at it, that should work. (where is the sarcasm font?)
I love this game. As a light armor class, if you build it right,(read put in survivability) you can take on heavy armor classes and win because of the typical mentality of “me smash, you die” but to do that they have to neglect some armor rating. You don’t get the consequences of your build to the degree you do here (if people would actually play around with something besides ‘zerker) in any other game.
Not saying there aren’t ways to tweak the game some, but the Trinity isn’t one. If you think that is the only aspect to an MMO, I agree with others above-Go play that game
