EcioMulticore.2967:

Congrats @ FU and OSC this two Guilds plays this week very good its make so a loot fun to fight with you two.

Greetz from VII – Kodash

Thx Bro!
We are having fun and hard time too

Gz to all Kodash guys.

This last hour at SM was a real hell btw.

I admire your patience, but you should be more realistic; if you are lucky, RoF will return competitive soon, but if not, you and all your guild mate will delete the game. I didn’t wanted to leave RoF, but 2 weeks ago, when I tried a top tier server, I discovered another game, compltely different and much more fun from RoF situation.

Good luck, you will need.

ah, we are dropping cuz we are a medium server and last week we meet 2 german servers that decided to ally against us. We are medium, did you noticed?
that’s why you should move here…no queue, good alliance etc etc.

Everybody moves and transfert, and if you are WvWvW oriented, you have to be ready to deal with it or you willl quit the game soon.
my 2 cents

EDIT: you are missing a point: people are quitting this game, thanks to bugs, hacks and bla bla, so WvWvW numbers are falling down.

Well, I was BloS commander, and moving on another server was the best move I was able to do, really, I have no regrets.
WvWvW in top tiers is another game, comparing to low tiers…alliances that cooperates and loads of players.
I mailed to Hawkeii, inviting him to move too, since RoF is a wasting of time. He replayed to me badly, but is ok

I still prefer this [OSC] video, than the gangnam style one

Both german’s servers are allied. fact.

5 minutes ago, defending Riverside Borderland’s bay, happned a weird thing:
we wiped a Riverside zerg (we were 20, they 50, more or less) at the inner gate, and as soon as we finished to collect our medals, Kodash’s zerg came too…coincidence?

at least you left us a free, full upgraded and full of supplies SM

RG didn’t return to piken\?

OT
kartoffen!
When I log WvWvW against germans, I always have to bring empty bags to be able to get the free loot.

I wonder know how germans can afford so many players in night and morning…

IT
We have no night coverage and even less morning one. today, at 3p.m. we are outmanned in every map.

Greetings, I’m a Commander of Ring of Fire.

We are doing decently with WvWvW, with some 5-6 big guilds that are pretty well organizzed.
In the last weeks we are going up in the ladder and we are meeting bigger servers.
Now the situation is that we are steamrolled from this higer tier servers just because we miss players.
Thats why I’m asking to WvWvW guild from low tier to try our server and be more competitive.
We have no queue in primetime (sometimes 5 minutes for EB)
Feel free to PM me.

Hey guys
I’m commander of the biggest guild in RoF.
we are steamrolled this week, and many other wvwvw guilds are planning to transfer.
I would love to propouse to Aurora glasde’s WvWvW guild to transfer to our server (maybe not this week, but the next), so we can build up a better and competitive server.
We have no queue and a pretty decent organization between guilds, we just miss numbers.
Feel free to PM me.

Greetings from ROF!
good to read that underworld is going to organize more; you have good potential thanks to your decent 24 hours coverage (a thing that rof dosen’t have) and large numbers of players (we don’t have that too).
we had good time last week fighting against you, and this week is going to be fun too.
My guild is assigned to your borderlands, so I’m sure we will meet in the battle field! (i’m the norn warrior that charge you first)

Good luck and have fun!
and also, you are not doing bad at all, even last week! too bad that we both are assigned against a hig population server (jade sea and gandara)

ple4ase to read that there are smart players too

I tested shouts-heal build with a full karma-healing power gear…
I deleted it after 1 wek, cuz healing power dosen’t stack well. maybe it will be fixed

Good fights, tonight, into udenrworld map! I hope Gandara won’t kick our balls during night time!
Good Luck Have Fun!

haha, you guys make me smile. it’s being more than a month and you still didn’t get the game.
Going in WvWvW with a 1vs1 build is stupid, and keep not cooperationg with other classes is dumb. If this is your mentality, you will remain the scum of a mindless zerg all the time you log, and I’m pretty sure that in 1 month or less you will leave this game.
WvWvW is “large numbers” and the fun come out working together, not thinking about your own survaibility and dps.
Obviously you didn’t try the build and you are all trolling or trash-talking. nice comunity of kids…

mmm, what you need more than sword horn to close the gap?

yes, but still cant compare with 2 axes

intersting point of view, it has a point. but the 90 seconds cooldown is enough to recharge for the next fight and the boost it gives you it’s really good to win the first battle.

Kendu Kuzal.3985:

Only rifle is single target. You can hit several people with the GS. When played right, that’s a very effective build, it’s just so overused and easy to play that you rarely see good players using it. I’m really not an advocate of it but I also don’t discredit it.

GS is pretty bad, comparing with 2 axes. ok, if you are lucky and you charge a player without all the 10 fingers, maybe you can drop him out with a 100blades. too bad that most of players has 10 fingers and will dodge your 100blades, meanwhile you are stucked in a place for some seconds hitting the mosquitos with your big sword.
ah, with gs, you also lack of combofinisher

Last Chance trait is not so “random”. before to judge, try this out, or stop saying that is not good. If is not good, why most of hardcore guilds use this?

Artaz.3819:

@Boroming – It’s about coordinated “bombing” with a group. AoE and any means to gain Quickness (hello, AoE) makes it work often.

By “bombing”, I’m talking about the Mesmer portal/stealth tactic (usually with a Guardian or three for pulling everyone together or a Elementalist for AoE stun). The tactic was popularized back in the DAoC/WAR days from my recollection.

I realize the power of the spec but it doesn’t help the far majority of warriors to make them suddenly becoming playable in WvW as a melee. That same coordinated group would be fine in 90%+ of circumstances with any type of spec because of the power of portal/stealth/support Guardians in WvW.

EDIT: I still don’t know how you can run melee at all with the invisible / culling bug right now though. At least with range, you can tab target (lol) stuff.

i’m agree with you, but bow-rifle warriors give nothing usefull to the group.
The things that all warriors has to understand is that, our best contribute in a wvwvw field is the massive aoe dps and combofinishers we can use.
Sure, we can give buffs and some usefull support things too, but other classes do that better.
I’ll keep repeat: single target dps, in wvwvw, is useless, thats why GS-rifle builds sucks hard.

this legend that cyclone axes does less damage than autoattack is simply wrong!

Kendu Kuzal.3985:

Lohengrin. Your build works for you. It may be decent, but it doesn’t address the survivability problem. I think that’s what people are trying to say. It’s also not perfect, and it definitely isn’t “the best”.

Oh well, I didn’t made this build: is the one that hard-core wvwvw guilds use. problem is that they will never come here and share with you. you can just noticed organized guilds with tons of wirlwing warriors and guardians in the frontline and behind all the rest.

VictorTroska.3725:

Its alright but I wouldnt use it. I have been doing many builds in WvWvW and for me, only two builds shine (100% melee). One is highly defensive support build (Shouts heal Hammer+Mace WH or Banner heal Hammer+Mace WH. Another is fast killing extremely mobile build, aka Sword+Shield/GS (not glass cannon version with Mobile Strikes).

But I guess everyone plays different. I personally shy away from Rifle warrior, I find it too “meh”, besides my Norn buddies would just laugh at me.

One of my last try was a full healing power-shouts heal and CC. When I was full equip with healing power and I noticed that it dosen’t stack pretty well on shouts, I deleted all that bad healing power equip

too bad tha condition damage is not for wvwvw: you have loads of conditions? you can dispell them! you cannot dispell? you go back, die and be ressed and return in the battle.
burst aoe dps is the basic for wvwvw

Kendu Kuzal.3985:

Lohengrin. You made yourself look like a the “nob” by saying that this is “the best way to play your class”. Anyone that has played this game and has a valid opinion understands there is no “best way” to play any class.

You also said “pown”. Fail.

feel free to don’t use this. hope to meet you in the battle field
smart players will try this out.

@Artaz
you are wrong. try this build out before to say it’s wrong. you obviously know nothing about metagame

again: this is the most common build for wvwvw guilds, and I told you already why: amazing aoe dps, loads of combo finisher, good survivability, good escape and chase etc.
feel free to keep playing like a nob, if you want, but I think mose of warriors wants to udnerstand how is the best way to play their class. I’m giving you a “not pug-bow” build and you are spitting on it. I hope to meet you in the battleground, but in the enemy side, so I can pown you

oh God…I knew random pugs would come and complain: before to whine again and again, give it a shot.

this is an HARDCORE-WVWVW build, for a minimum organizd groups-guilds. ah, it’s not glasscannon, you have a lot of HP, pretty good toughness and amazing escape. And remember endure pain. you can use frenzy utility too, in combo with endure pain, to ress fast a friend.

you ask me: WHAT WE DO DURING SIGE? I explain what most of hardcore guilds does: they make a guardians-warriors pack, buff up might, retaliation and stability, and go out for 10 seconds, kitten every enemy players that is close to gate (including sige machine). after 10 seconds they come inside gate again, heal-up and repeat.

A HAMMER CC warrior is welcome too, with the group, but usualy other classes can do the same CC from range (elementalist, for example).

I repeat: this build is not for random-solo pugs, but for “a bit organizzed” party. Just a bit.

About BLOODLUST rune: it’s right, it reset when you die, but diyng it’s pretty hard, with a build like this. I’m also a commander, and I always charge first the enemy zerg, I survive 90% of times, even if i’m guiding a pug zerg. Also you build up the power stack pretty fast, killing veterans that protect gates and supply camp
You all warriors have to udnerstand a thing: melee burst aoe dps it’s uber, and enemyes 90% of the time tend to fall back when you charge them and start wirlwinding.

This build is the one that good guild use to steam roll you all. you dont want to use? at least you know how it work.

this is the build made with guild head

http://www.guildhead.com/skill-calc#mmRzzkV9MmwCnmmwCnmGx9MGVacVbVa8kij7kiH7kir7khf7070z7kGL70V7ofD70M7owY70z

Norn and Charr are the best race, not just for elite, but just cuz they re big and scary!

This build is the one that most of hard-core wvwvw guilds use. you ask: “why?” because WvWvW is all about: speed, burst aoe dps, aoe boons and combo fields.

Primary set is double axe, why?: loads of combo finisher and massive aoe damage.
Secondary is Sword-Horn, why?: leap with ridicolous cooldown, mobility, cc breaker and buff-debuff (also the bleeding, that improove axe damage)
Important rule: NO RANGED WEAPONS! you are not a hunter, your best position is in the middle of the battle with melee weapons. warriors and guardians are the first-line in the battle, with good tankiness and imba 1337 aoe dps. who should charge the enemies? thief or elementalist?

TRAITS

Strenght 20; V – X

Arms 30; III – V – XII

Discipline 20; V – VI

Axe/Axe – Sword/horn

UTILITY SKILLS
Endure Pain / Bull’s Charge / Stability / Signet of Rage / Mending

RUNE
Axe – Bloodlust (stack POWER 25x)
Axe – Sigil of rage

Sword – what you prefer
Horn – Regen for vigor (dodge) when you swap

GEAR:
Armor wtih power vitality and toughness (5 pices from karma gods, the head from wvwvw badges)
Everything else Berzerker, but if you want to be harder you can put some knight jewels.
Rune are: what you prefer. I’m using superior divinity and they works like a charm.

This is not a 1vs1 build (even if you can handle most of players), but for “organized” groups-zergs. it works perfectly with Staff-elementalist (massive aoe snare-combo fields) and Guardians with shouts build.

Hope it helps. warriors are imba in wvwvw. dont use rifle and bow!

Crap! I open this thread in the wrong section!

just ban all non-europeans from eu servers. is not just about the final result, but the impossibility of playing.

canadians loves killing veteran guards…this is funny.

advice to arenanet: if you want to save your wvwvw fans, create something to avoid non european players to zerg our night. this is a bit frustrating and ridicolous.

melee are overpwered…you just need an organized group.

The situation, fighting against french servers, is always the same: many full zerg, in all the maps, day and night without stop, thanks to the continous timezone full covering.

I beg arenanet to block non-european ip to prevent this bullkitten.

the funny thing is that french are even bad players (jade sea, at least), able only to mass enormous zerg and nightcap.

fun fun fun

a commander of rof here.

1) queue time is low (10 minutes for eternal in the first afternoon) but a bit harder in the evening (20 minutes more or less).
2) dunno exactly about PvE, cuz I don’t care, but there are a lot of people duing that, seems like.
3)in WvWvW we rocks, exept in night time (after 2am), cuz we dont have a proper and strong night cap-defend team. in this week we are matched with bad servers, and we have 95% of the map
4)we only speak english.
6)im really happy of my server, because random players and pugs are pretty ready to listen and execute orders. the biggest guilds are pretty well organized between each other. the 2 main guild is mine (Blos=bloodstone keepers) and CORP. we are growing up everyday more and more with sinergy.
7)we always did pretty well, even if we suffer night time (not this week, because of bad enemyes)

Server population is growing, because many italians guilds are coming in rof from FOW. but honestly they are pretty decent (my guild is italian too).

last week we had matchmaking with underworld, so I can tell a bit about them. they loves a lot big and mindless zerg, ninja capping and night capping. but the dont seems too organized.

I don’t care mutch about this. I just laugh about some night zerg that enjoy fighting NPC.
For me, doing PvE in WvWvW, is pretty kitten

seems like you just take our garrison…

are you saying that I modificated my screens?

listen: my screens are not from last night, but from the night before, ergo 2 nights ago.

I made this to prooves that the inner gate is not correctly upgraded.

even in your screenshot (made 3 nights ago) the inner gate is not upgraded.

Myself im pritty sure this is not last nights attack, though why would you start a post about Orange swords not showing up then post a screen shot of Orange swords.

cuz we were repelling your zerg that we noticed thanks to our scut (actualy I was the one standing still on the door). 2 days ago you started doing this at 24.00 so we got you.

1. Can’t even zoom this at imageshack – it keeps kicking me to main page
2. There’s no time on those screenshots which means they could be made in completely different times.

I will up differently.

that’s not true. you capped the garrison at 1.15 am

stop trashtalking. at 1 am is late to leave a full time patrol. the fact is that you abuse of 2 bugs (south non reinforced door and non yellow swords when less than 5 people engage guards).

the garrison is almost always contested from the stupid creeps.

but my QUESTION is: arenanet made on porpous this things (to not show yellow blades) or not?

Gratz to you that are nerds nolifers that have time to nightcap everything.
