Guild Wars 2

Conditions need adressing, too easily reapplied after cleanses, maybe have certain cleanses have a condition immunity after they have been used, something short. Just a thought but it is really depressing after cleansing 8-10 conditions to have them instantly reapplied, and encourages skill-less spamming of abilities.

Our raids are typically 25-30 and conditions are a massive problem with larger numbers, this is not a 1v1 issue only.

Cheers to everyone for the figths tonite was fun most of the time , was laggy quite a bit as well.

@TuPies , we dont mind that you had to come and help the AG infrantry :p

The important thing is that we crushed you at your spawn. So get on our level.

That was the most epic push i have been in since joining TUP

Nemesys.7251:

k because u cant ignore us i will simply start ignore/blocking u then i dont have time too wasting on a forum to fill up your ego.

ps: and only a last thing we never asked to dont attack us the point is we really dont care to be zerged by 30/50/100 or 1 less than us.

So you mean that you consider 1 less than your number a zerg? So if you run 15 one night, then 16 the next, by your own rational you are a zerg…

I think that is a bit unlikely to happen, as we consider 10v10 to small for our setup(kinda).

10*Retal isn’t as effective as 20*Retal? ;P

I jest.

Much love to the TUP Rangerx2, Guard and Mes roaming EB. We were having a great fight until the JS blob arrived.

Much disappointment to the JS blob; it’s 3:30 in the morning, 4:30 for you. 80 guys and 15 golems to take a keep is embarrassing, particularly as you failed so spectacularly the first time.

You can have the points, they might just fit the void where pride typically resides.

To AG; continue being fun. To Gandara, don’t let the mindless grind you down. To Jade Sea, you guys are the worst so far, and the truest representation of just how broken this game is now. To Anet; thanks for Supply Mastery.

Hey man, thanks for the awesome small scale. Only my 4th day roaming on ranger (i was the one you got down just before the mahooosive JS zerg turned up. I gotta say you guys are impressive at getting up your downed, looking forward to meeting in EB again soon

War Dad TUP

Just to echo the sentiments of my guildies, lots of fun tonight and friday, thank you all. Oh and mad props to the UW guy, guild tag RUM, who followed us round and kept suicide charging, i love crazy stuff like that.

War Dad TUP

Just wanted to echo the sentiments that i have seen more fight from RoF and DL than most servers, especially considering your lack of numbers compared with us. Also i am sorry for all the AG players saying we never blob when that is what they have been doing all week to you. Try not to hate us too much every servers fair weather players/guilds and world completionists come out when they are on top. When we are loosing next week they will all disappear, along with their forum bravado.

Uuuuh i got a Mya overdose tonight!!! So happy!

You guys are really top quality opponents: so steady and fast and really adaptable to fights. One can’t slack even 1 second that you steamroll like a boss it was really a fun fun night! <3

Thanks QQ for coming to say hello, you crazy kittens <3 can’t wait to fight you too.

@VoragoUmbra: don’t be mean with our WarDad, you know he’s not a beast, he’s only a big fluffy kitty.

Sorry Maeeve but i think Viagra was referring to you as the beast….

Also thanks to MYA for the impromptu GvG, was my 1st GvG and a lot of fun, good practice at trying to dodge the hell away from your steamroller train.

Thank you so much to QQ, MYA, DYE, YAK and TDA for the amazing action tonight. Constant epic fights all between guilds running about the same number, 25-30. That showdown at south island was intense. Again thanks and i look forward to more of the same this week. Also again thanks to MYA for the spanking they were giving us at the start of the evening, made us tighten up after weeks of fighting blobs that run off

War Dad TUP

All i have to say is…

lol

Mass retal is more of a coincidence than something we actively try to keep up, as a guardian myself i hope it gets sorted on bl maps soon.

War Dad TUP

Ok i am calling it now, AG will be facing RS and RS (RS have somehow self replicated ala Agent Smith) Either that or we face Sagitta Plaustrum (the god of Arrow carts)

JonSnow.5610:

I figured it out! Anet hates AG!

Every time we get somewhere they decide to shut down WvW
Two days ago at 3am when we were fighting in lords room SM.
Yesterday when they shut us down on the inner of our own hills.

But thank god we have the announcement of new build in one to two hours … 2 minutes before it shuts down

Coupled with the fact that 10 out of the last 12 weeks we have been against RS (or some other German server)

100 loot bags for manning siege? kitten , you pro. You might as well go play PVE – more loot, better loot. Much less sitting around doing nothing waiting for someone to attack or worrying you might lose your place on your AC.

AC buff was the worst change yet in this game. The main WvWvW forum threads are full of people defending it because “it gives smaller groups a chance when outnumbered”. What they forget is the reverse is also true – the small groups when facing a much larger force – who no doubt have siege maxed due to the number of ACs placed – have no chance at all.

Game was much more fun when siege placement was broken. Personally I’d take out all the siege with exception of rams and catas (although I’d make doors MUCH harder). Superior items should be WXP drop only to limit their supply much more effectively and Golems only available to build when you are outnumbered.

I never thought I’d miss WARs odd system where you could only place siege at designated spots, but maybe there was some method to their madness.

Oh no I actually wish Id have got an AC during that time. But sadly I didnt. Wonder how much Bags those guys in the AC’s got.

---

What the….?

At 2:17:20 Riverside runs away before they even see you. They probably needed to defend something on the map or another map. Like hell theyd run because of that lil Melee Train. Or do you think they’ll run all AT THE SAME TIME away the exact second a Player with [TUP] appears on screen? No, they even started running 2-3 sec before the first of your Players was visible. Seriously…

Before i joined TUP i would have probably said no, now i have i would say this happens multiple times every single time we go raiding, especially from the German servers

War Dad TUP

If there are allies and enemies around i always have it active, blinds, might, group flame dmg and a heal, lovely.

Colly.4073:

I have lost count how many threads have been made regarding skill delay/lag. Anet have stated it is a server side issue and that they are working to resolve it, Personally I don’t think they know how to.

It does seem to be getting worse with every patch and really NEEDS addressing.

Agreed, i think Anet could at least put an official stickied thread in the WvW forum making people aware that they are aware of the situation. Seems a bit cloak and dagger atm.

I’m not impressed with the 4 people from SVSL guild who magically appeared inside StoneMist Inner without a broken gate or wall in sight…. No mesmer either…. All reported…. But I would suggest an officer of SVSL investigate as it seems you have a bad egg or 2 in the basket.

Any screenshots? Names of Players? Hard to investigate without evidence. Seems like alot of accusations get thrown around but without proof hard to guard against. I am not saying you didn’t see what you saw but you should be careful laying blame without something to back it up.

Got a quick shot of them

Red Guard, all i have to say is OUCH

I learnt more from fighting you guys for a few hours than i have since i came back to the game. I look forward to some high repair bills this week

Rookni.2469:

The thing I cant understand with KISS is that, are you a guild or alliance? Sometimes we can meet a KISS group that is good, coordinated and hard hitting. Sometimes we can meet a KISS blob that think the #1 skill on their character is god-mode in their glass specc that melt upon impact. So inconsistent.

Also AG. Please keep up the corpse jumping/dancing and emoting. So entertaining <3

An alliance of i think 3 or 4 guilds, also 95% of those are pve players. I think it depends on the players, time and whether or not they are in TS. As far as builds, we don’t dictate what builds people have to use, but yeah i think you have a fair point. As far as corpse dancing i save it all for a certain special guild

Well it is nice that things seem to have calmed down, i just want to add one more thing (no troll) that KISS did not come to this thread bragging, if you look back through it you will see dangerdoom started the discussion. We don’t generally come to the forums to brag about our 1337ness, but we retain our right to reply, if pushed.

nite

mesmers ftw i guess^^ we had 39 people in our ts. including some non kiss members. So please stop telling us we had 52 + kiss running around, while you are trying to make it sound like you was fighting us alone. Next time please try it more than one time. We like the lootbags.

Yes mesmers…i was one of the two u saw outside that camp…and no…you weren 45 KISS..u were 75/80 lemmings acting like pro..making portals to wipe 4/5 ppl at time…
And remember..u must gather up to face us…you without the serverside pug are worthless..
I like the lootbags more than you..when kiss members die inside the blob and they re left on the ground like garbage….we do the cleaning…and most of the times the tag is KISS…can you imagine why?
go /buy skill…try to roam in 20/30 (alone) and maybe you will deserve a little respect from us.

Plz Aurora.. stop saying that BB blob every day… Maybe you just have to see your blobs too…

Just a few examples of past week…

I know BB some times had to use blob but… just to be able to kill yours blobs.. If one server play bloby bloby, the other servers have to play blobs too to counter it, or you’ll win almost all battles…

Well there was a huge blob/zerg straight after reset in our Borderlands, if you check the images you can quite clearly see this is not even numbers, this is just by hills, where you were waiting for reinforcements before engaging although you already outnumbered us. Btw this was all the KISS on after reset

Yeeeeeeh huge blob zerg mate… i have a huge LOL for u and one kleenex pack. If you see a buch of names you call it blob and… another freaking “joke-man” comes

Look at this:
http://es.twitch.tv/chosco1970/b/387117966

0:04:01 i see one blod?? no mate i see a group of KISS with some randoms
0:29:33 OMG!!! another blob + 1 ballista? ?no mate this its your screen in a diferent POV.

REALLY?? 2:1 4:1?? bla bla bla and crys its just anoying. Keep it classy and not make yourself a morron.

i hope your see now the REAL truth, and maybe we can come back to clean figths an less drama.

Well i didn’t say that that was the huge blob zerg did i? Can;t really understand the rest of your post im afraid, and there’s no need for name calling is there? (keep it classy) Sure there are some rules about that on the forum?

I suggest you keep the Kleenex for wiping up the excrement that comes from your typing.

majos.8503:

MrZigwah, i don’t say that BB never blobs.. but.. just look at ur minimap, I see a blob there too.. haha

Hey i never said we don’t either, i actually find blob vs blob quite fun when there is some good tactics going on.

miniL.7361:

The lag is serverwide (PVE 2 only a bit less) and not just WvW. I would love to see this fixed and an increase @ wvw at the same time cause the ques are annoying as hell for WvW, taking an hour to get in. At the same time its a huge backstab for everyone at the medium servers that transfers to our servers are free now because the ques get huge.

Amen to this

Like i said the parts for this cost me nearly a grand, over including my monitor, it is not my hardware. Al;so this game is renown for being optimised for lower end machines. I am not the only person complaining about this lag, i see it in chat everywhere. Blind fanboism won’t improve the game.

So i just came back after a 3 month hiatus, my main reason for quitting was culling and how much it was ruining the game for me, so when i hear a rumour it was fixed i jumped back in.

Now culling seems a lot better, as good as it was before it got really bad, maybe even slightly better, it is not completely cured, a few zergs still ‘pop’ in. However the culling seems to have been replaced with an almost permanent lag, even when there is no one around me i have experienced lag on my skills of a few seconds.

I was just in a truel at Stonemist, which would have been fun if it weren’t for the 10 seconds of lag on every action, i had a 1v2 upstairs that boiled down to who was lagging less. Also since my break the performance has decreased to, i was just getting single figures FPS, which is unacceptable on a machine that cost over 1000 UK pounds, and is less than 6 months old.

So something has to give, whether it be lowering the amount of people in WvW, getting better servers, or at least letting us tone down the particle effects nightmare, i really enjoy this game and want to see it grow and prosper.

I play a semi-tanky but mainly power/swiftness focussed Guardian. I used to die a lot to thieves, but now after learning most their tricks i will very often win, and seldom lose to them now (i love shadow refuge, as soon as i see that house your mine) A couple weeks back 2 highly skilled/co-ordinated thieves took me and 3 people of siege, i immediately raged OP until i thought that any pair of highly skilled/co-ordinated anything is going to wreak havoc (and deserves too)

I seriously hope culling gets fixed, fighting thieves can actually be pretty fun when culling is not an issue

For just getting around the map, I’ll equip Retreat. I’ve also got the GS leap and “Save Yourselves!” Obviously I’ll try to swap Retreat out for something else before entering combat, though…

exactly, you try, but it not work always, and most of the time you are locked with a skill that you dont need in combat.

Retreat is one of my faviroute shouts/utilities in combat, i know there are more poweful/potentialy useful abilities, but nearly 30 secs of swiftness in combat can be real handy (esp group fights). Odd how it’s called retreat as 9/10 i use it running into a fight

Is there really no better time to patch than after the w3 reset? This has hapened to me multiple times, the week resets, all our guild is on and totally hyped. Patch comes in and 90% of people don’t relog, i imagine due to it being late (also can’t say i blame em) Just strikes me that there may be a beter time, even at say 5am after the reset.

Good luck to al this week, i pulled a shift till 7 am running JP’s and setting up siege on out BL

This is a bit lonely hearts but hey, i hope the GH Mesmer i fought 1v1 outside outside GH Bluelake at about 10.30 pm UK time last night reads this. That was an epic encounter and you gave me much adrenaline

It’s pointless to create it now anyway. It’s clear who is the winner, and by now it’s almost clear who’ll be 2nd place… I have to congratulate AG, but I have to say their night capping team is soo bad, that they have to rely on 10+ golems to PvDoor right.

Yeah we were bored, spiced things up a bit.

I hope AG jump a tier or 2, doubt your swarm fest will work when its even numbers and that seems to be the only tactic you have atm. Will be nice to see you guys get hit in the face by reality.

…. and what is reality? to be like you? small bitter man?
btw, its nice to fooling u zerg away from ours, over and over again

But to KISS, LOE and others:
“Don’t argue with idiots. They’ll drag you down to their level and beat you…”
and welcome!

Saying your server only wins by numbers and night capping isn’t being bitter, its just stating facts. The fact AG takes pride in winning this week when its obviously not close to being an even matchup just makes it even more obvious.
And calling other people idiots when you can’t post a proper sentence makes the comment miss its mark…

Amazing how some people still sren’t used to the internet. You are stating OPINIONS, not facts. Or maybe you are right and every player on AG is just dribbling onto their keyboard whilst still rolling you. From what i have seen there is s ton of skilled players on AG. Maybe we should change the hours we play? Would that make us better players according to you?
