having a ton of problems with this bug.

What about people so desperate to win to run celestial eles/engis all the time?

At least turret engi is not OP

Cele is beatable if you’re specced right. Turret engis, on the other hand, are ridiculously hard to kill unless you +1, spend a few minutes from range trying to smash thier mid-air turrets, eat their craploads of CC after smashing their turrets only to have to face crate, or try bursting them with a condi build that doesn’t really work in most other situations.

They aren’t nearly as difficult to beat as people think. I play with Tibs daily at this point (no I’m not one of his famous turret engis). I’m having very little issue killing or as least decapping turret engis as a cele staff ele.

There are plenty of other builds that can beat turret engineer in a 1v1, even with turrets already set. A decent zerk shatter mes will drop the engi before he can do much to react. An axe/dagger – shortbow condi bunk ranger can kill a turret engi, interrupt the heal, and you’ll do it that much faster.

I realize I’m helping the competition but honestly, our individual player skill is a bit higher than most people assume just because we’re playing “broken” builds, and I’m not too worried about people effectively countering us, 95% of the players in this game don’t even try to interrupt heals despite the extremely obvious tell and the cele staff ele build is not easy to get kills with unless you get practice in and learn the rotation.

Multiple times wins and losses haven’t been recorded, for hours at a time. The worst part is, every time this happens, it’s prime time for US players.

I can queue up on an alt account but not on this one. zzzz plz fix

Until this is patched, please remove the map from the rotation. It’s been done before in PvP when a game-breaking bug was an issue. When there was a loading bug in The Legacy of the Foefire, the map was removed from the rotation until it was fixed. Please do the same with this.

… that would screw many people out of a decent reward that they payed a ton of gold or even money for.

I trimmed that quote to highlight the part I was rather alarmed by. Personally, I do not like the idea of someone paying – hopping to a winning server – and then feeling that they have a right to the rewards that have been hard won by the players on that server.

Transfers this late in the season shouldn’t give entitlement to anything imho.

I’m not talking about JUST the end of season transfers, I mean anyone who moved. I think if someone payed gold or money to transfer, they deserve to know how to change their server association

Mark Katzbach.9084:

Your world association is not determined based on the sheer amount of time you’ve spent fighting for a world, but rather the things you’ve achieved during your time fighting with that world.

Could we get a more specific answer? Is it about player kills, camp/tower/keep captures? A combination of all these? Or just specifically how many of the season 2 achievements you’ve completed on a server.

I sincerely hope it isn’t about how many season 2 achievements you’ve completed on a server, otherwise this would be a serious oversight that would screw many people out of a decent reward that they payed a ton of gold or even money for.

Anvil Rock has one of the strongest Oceanic coverage of any bronze league. With new transfers coming in, we’re only getting stronger.

A very important thing to note for any mid to large size guilds. Our oceanic coverage trumps most if not all of the bronze servers. If you find it frustrating that you seem to lose everything over night you wont find that here on AR. Come join us and you’ll see exactly why we can win many of our outnumbered fights. We have plenty of skill just lacking in numbers. So head on over and learn from some of the most skilled small man groups.

Two words, Death………….Match

I’m sorry if my post was misunderstood. What i meant was not that you are gunna FIX this, it’s that THIS is the post that gets acknowledged. There are plenty of legitimate bug reports, like the wvw door issue, but instead of responding to that thread by saying that you at least acknowledge the issue, we see a response about a confused human child. ><

really… all these legitimate bugs and issues on these forums, and THIS is the thread we see a response to… i give up

Come over to Anvil Rock, we’re pretty much in the dirt and can only go up from where we are. ^^ Plus we have some fun people here. Prepare for the trolls and hop over.

It can be done with a full party, at least it could up to a month ago. I have been avoiding LFG in recent days. I understand there may not be a fix, but they could at least respond and perhaps ban the 2 or 3 players that have been named plenty of times on the forums. Instead of investigating the players that get named, they give the posters infractions and nothing happens to the infamous players harassing people who use LFG.

A party can automatically be kicked from dungeons by joining them and merging with another party on the LFG system. This can even be done when the party is full. When are we going to see a response about this issue that has been reported many times. There are certain players who are known for merge kicking. They have been doing it for at least 4 months to my knowledge. Nothing has been done and the player base hasn’t gotten a legitimate response regarding this issue or any help dealing with the player base that is known for merge kicking a large number of parties every day.

Thanks for the keep Hardtankz. Keep it classy and keep the threats up.

I think it’s cute that Kaineng likes to threaten.

Why do people always come onto these kinds of posts and say stuff like this.
“Oh, we are not even trying”
“Ooh, we’re burnt out from the 7 week season grind.”

That is complete nonsense. AR is beating SF and Kpop at EVERY single turn. We are taking lead because our WvWvW game has skyrocketed. Yup, we are taking advantage of coverage gaps…but that’s not the entirely we’re wining. Hell it’s prime time for everybody right now and we’re still leading. Hmm. Crazy.

What I’m seeing right now from SF is not the same we fought weeks earlier during the season. The previous SF had the 2nd most participation levels in I’ve seen in WvW, right now it’s quite tame by comparison. I’m not one to kick a server while they’re down. SF deserves a relaxing break from WvW stress and just play for fun, they’ve accomplished a lot during the season. IMO you were the server in bronze that was closest to competing with HoD during your season prime.

You should have some respect from me, at least after all that hate for your server I’ve been reading on last week. Not that I like your SF forum warriors when you are winning and spamming the recruitment posts on the matchup thread, but AR right now… loll. Omg guuyeez, bronze league offseason is teh hardcore real deal! All hail AR! Their genius wvw strategies and grass roots community building is a beacon of hope for all bronze leaguers! Enlighten us in your ways so we may learn to be champions of bronze league offseason.

(Awaiting for AR response)

You want to be enlightened? Learn to properly siege up and defend. Defense is the one strat above ALL OTHERS that has brought us up from 24th. More than the few transfers we’ve had, and almost arguably even better for us than our recent TS usage. As simple as that. Defending what we own and wiping the enemy zerg to demoralize them. You’ve been enlightened.

Narcin Roc.3018:

I guess Anvil Rock has become a scary server that people need to exploit against in order to beat. It’s quite an honor. Thank you Commander Laylä from [LH]

I hope you are being sarcastic.

Why would that be sarcasm? We took out the zergy beast that is GoM and we’re currently winning this week by 17k atm

Killuminati.6945:

Well at least you guys have the name now…but as we all know… everyone has bad apples. No worries SF.

Still dont know why staying dead to chat (cuz i added AR ppl to my party, if i were planning something bad i wouldn’t have done that, dah xD) is bad =/ and i wped when one of ur guys made a bad joke bout my IRL health and our zerg was breaking NE bay gate cuz they didnt know i was in watergate an that other guy with me i called him to chitchat with AR and u were the thief who i couldnt get in the party cuz u were already in one

ppl seriouly like to make dramas bout the silliest stuff xD
Calm down and relax <3

you had a ranger friend come try and res you LMAO

People are dying next to specific gates and waiting there, sometimes for hours at a time, for servermates to come and res them so they can take back the objective whenever they want. It’s beginning to get out of hand.

BRL, keep your mesmers in check. This dying at the gate bullkitten is really getting old.

CornChips.5392:

On another note, what’s up with GOM today?

Dunno. Things looked pretty good while I was online today. >:D

You had 1 good hour and you’re talking trash? We closed the gap by 5k points, come back when open back up again.

CornChips.5392:

Solstice.1097:

Popped in to say grats AR looking like a 6th place finish. Way to stick it in the faces of those who predicted dead last for AR.

Can’t count our chickens yet, it’s a very close match still and many days to go.

Start counting those chickens my friend. By the numbers we already have 6th. This week’s outcome cannot change it, whether we come first, second, or third. (That is if Kaineng comes in their expected 3rd place this week.)

Colt.9051:

Had a very fun late night in DR BLs :P After wreaking some havok there papering towers and ninjaing Bay through AR I had a bit of fun dolying it up, which some passerby DR and AR found amusing! :P This group on the other hand… the pic says the rest

We knew you were on the map with numbers so we sorta gave you bay last night. We were just screwin with DR so hard. Hope you had fun Commander Dark Jean – much love from the [HK] + [Yolo] havoc squad.

Romek.4201:

this patch was matchmaking reset so EVERYONE is now on the same lvl for finding matchups

it need some time

i hope you’re just making fun of anet’s typical response… because leaderboards evening out wont stop 4v5s

Oh wait, still sucks, problem still not solved.

Bananaling.9673:

good fun fightz last nite AR you guys are relentless at defending your keeps. We got in at bay inner but got stopped. We didn’t Rez the guy at water tunnel because we don’t roll like that so you know. Overall it’s been a fun week for us hope it’s fun for you guys too. The girl warrior from EYE it was a lot of fun fighting you everywhere at Drbl.

I wish i could believe this, but the only reason that mesmer wasn’t ressed is because we had 4 or 5 people camping his body. At least 2 or 3 people came to the gate to res him and realized with all the people camping his body it would be a waste of time.

[Slay] Mesmer from DH in bay swimming to gate to die in a spot where he can be ressed. This kind of cheap, exploitive play should not be tollerated by anet or the guilds of the players doing this kind of thing. Just wanted to point this out so others can look out for it. The player has been reported to anet as well.

Arius.7031:

pointing out that we did win BUT ONLY BECAUSE OF NUMBERS, does nothing to interact with my point.

Coverage is about numbers AND time of play, DH is just superior with both, but like I said, most AR-DH zerg v zergs ended in an AR victory. The simple fact is that coverage = time of play AND numbers, not just time like you seem to think.

Arius.7031:

We’ll win due to coverage? Why does everyone say that x.×. We have a strong prime time game toooooooooooooo!1111!11

You say you have strong prime time game, but all i remember from last night is most AR-DH fights ending in a DH wipe, not to say they weren’t fun or close. ^^ Let’s keep it up.

Don’t underestimate AR on defense. We are vicious.

Mugo.5723:

Jeknar.6184:

GoM Overlook and AR Garrison are the only keep that weren’t flipped this week.

I flipped overlook twice this week on Wednesday morning. It was around at 4 am my time.

We also flipped it at about 2 or 3 am server time with 10+ golems

GoM… us here on anvil would like a 5 minute breather in between your attempts at bay and EB keep please

Is it midnight over there on Eredon Terrace?

With the addition of ascended weapons and soon to be ascended armor, it seems A-Net has turned away from what made this game fun. It used to be all about the skins and not the stats, but not any more. The time and effort it takes just to achieve the highest stat weapons and soon armor, has become ridiculous. What should have been just a grind for skins, has become a grind for both the stats and the skins we want. The new equipment grind has become obnoxious.

JonathanSharp.7094:

So the Ranger will be seeing some changes to the spirit build. We’re being very mindful to carefully shave it so that:

1. We’ve already seen counters to this build showing up (there’s a thread talking about the Warrior countering this build, and to what degree) in the meta.

It scares me that the devs consider a broken stun warrior a good counter for a broken spirit ranger. If that is true the view of the balance team, it’s going to get much worse.

TheGuy.3568:

Narcin Roc.3018:

I have to disagree. This map is perhaps the best map they’ve made. The issue here is a lack of class balance, not a lack of map balance. This map requires you to pay more attention to your enemy’s position than any other map. To time your dodges, pushes, pulls, and stabilities. The biggest issue is the lack of stability balance between classes, not the map itself.

Think OP is referring to the lag and the disconnects.

I am OP but i was referring to the kid who thinks the map sucks

I cannot believe it hasn’t been done already. Anet needs to step their game up. It took 2 and a half days to remove foefire from the rotation when it was buggy. Learn from the past, react faster. With such glaring issues that have simple and quick temp fixes, I have a bleak outlook for the future.

This needs to be seen. This data shows exactly why the current team making system is broken.

Allie Murdock.8152:

Dishonored does count for that scenario, ThatShortGuy.4672. If a player never joins when the queue pops, they will receive dishonored.

I wish i could believe that 4 people got dishonored but I find it EXTREMELY difficult that 4 people decided not to join all on the same team. I happen to believe that the queue system is broken and somehow I DIDN’T get paired with anyone.

Allie Murdock.8152:

You guys need to play more for the matchmaking to even out. Solo Arena was launched with everyone having the same rating, it’s only natural that it feel unbalanced right now because people need to work their way into their places on the ladder.

Also, we’re monitoring leavers and will adjust dishonored if necessary.

I’m not complaining about the actual match-ups, I understand that’s going to take a while to even out, but loading in completely alone is a different issue altogether.

interesting people draw interesting chat >>

I cannot believe this is happening. This isn’t the first time this has happened, and i doubt it will be the last. Load into a 1v5, amazing.

This game is clearly not ready. It’s completely mind boggling that the A-Net dev team spent so much time telling us this game would be released when it was ready that they couldn’t tell that its clearly not. Not even close. There were tons of BASIC content updates announced before the game even officially launched. Things like… I don’t know… GUILD HALLS and GUILD vs GUILD, which you would expect to be there at launch in a game called GUILD WARS.

I am thoroughly disappointed in the dev team for this game. Such GLARING bugs and issues would never have lasted this long in GW1. It is absolutely ridiculous that ANY player, either pve or pvp should have to wait weeks for issues that should even have been issues if they had taken the time to actually perfect the game like they should have.
