Guild Wars 2

Oenanthe.6549:

I’m not too bothered about other new content just the new weapons, i can work on the masteries at my leasure. I just read it that you had to have all the normal traits unlocked to get the elite trait available and unlocking the elite trait would give access to the weapon.

That would be correct, you will need 60 extra hero points on top of the ones you get for free to get to level 80 (since you have to spend all on the base skill/traits)

I thought about that one, but you won’t be able to use points on the new content until you unlock all the all traits/masteries first.

lol… obvious cooperation, do you even WvW?
Please DB come spare us..

You were starting to look lonely on page 2.

Another bump for the greatest server!

wow there has been some serious bumpage going on, back to the top.

Yb going to the top!

Needs to be bumped.

A bump for SG, keep bringing the bags and our enemies tears.
Great job!

Words of enlightenment OP.
Step up and talk for the majority of us WvW’ers, don’t let the minority take control of this game and run it to the ground.

A bump for you friends since you are about to hit page 2.

A bump for my friends.

I would try FA, they are looking to get PPT commanders and they have a warchest to pay for transfers, might want to inquire on their website http://www.fort-aspenwood.com

Normally I would recommend YB, but they don’t pay for transfers.

GvG is bad for you, leave that at the OS door.
If you are a bad junkie then get your daily doses by visiting your nearest tPvP queue.

Come have fun with the Insomniyaks.

Just giving the daily bump

Retaliation… drops the rangers in 1.5 seconds.
Wall of Reflection, Sanctuary

bumpy for our ocx friends.

Another excellent week, keep up the good work my friends!

bump for more OCX, EU players!!!
We roll into gold next week, come join for some fun!

Aitadis.8269:

So it seems in silver if NSP wins this week they come second overall for silver yet never faced CD and losing to DB in week 3. Why does a T4 server beat 2 T3 servers in overall ranking? Same with DR, they are a worst server than both DB and CD but if they win there matchup this week, they get better end of season rewards… This is a fail season indeed.

Because NSP deservers 2nd place, they played way better than the opposition, even whey they lack the coverage that the other T3/T4 servers have.

P.S. I never thought there would be a day when I actually agree with Spica….

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/wuv/wuv/Clarification-for-fall-tournament-matchups/first#post4422718

They went back on the unique matchup on the link I just posted, they opted to say it will minimize but that it would be possible.

Looks like we have nothing to worry since Crystal Dragon Desertbrand is fighting YB tonight, so Mag may be stuck in gold for another week after the tournament ends.

Ben K.6238:

YB’s going to stay in T2 for a while – the population influx and extra guilds they’ve inherited from Maguuma will even make it seem like business as usual.

Sure, their population is going to drop after the season, but so will everyone else’s. It’s not just the appearance of a few PvE’ers that makes a server capable of focussing DB down below NSP, it’s a full-on bandwagon.

You have no idea the potential on our PVE’ers.
It has been the same on all the seasons, our PvE population during seasons is way higher than any T3 or below server, heck it goes so big we were able to beat FA twice during season 2, thought they will claim it was a double team with HoD, something that never occurred.
We didn’t got any transfers except for vT, and even them are just a few, less than 8 as far as I am aware.
Not sure where you get the mentality YB is a bandwagon when we have less than 15 people that transfered to the server before and during the season.
Now if you are talking between Season 2 and Season 3, then yes, we got a some people, TC, TUNE, FB (but they are gone now), and also some people returned to the server after being away for a long time.
Now if you count all those together, that is around 40 new/returning people on the server.
There are 2 reasons we can beat DB:
1) The give up way too easy, and they are full of fairweathers, so as quickly as their numbers go up, they go down just a fast with a little resistance and a couple of deaths.
2) Their average pug level is below our average pug level, which lucky for us, helps us keep our fairweathers around.

Virtute.8251:

wrong on every count, but have conviction that you’re right.

Prove me wrong, so far you have fail to do so.
All you have provided is your opinion on how you wish the game would be played, not the way it was designed to be played.

@Basch
I would have to say you are right about almost all that you stated, and, I am speaking for myself not the entire YB server, personally, I want to go to T2 and have better fights, though NSP provides some good ones. But my idea of a fight is not going on the open field and duking it out to see who is the last group standing, though it happens on the way to objectives, I have more fun having a fight trying to take a keep or having a fight defending it. An like you said the funniest part of this game is the combat.

I see it as an opportunity to get better and see what else people are doing, but I never see myself just standing doing a fight without trying to go for a keep, tower, camp, etc.

As far as PPT goes, we do like to win, but the hardcore PPT’ing is only during seasons, after seasons, we don’t care if we win or lose, we just have fun and rest until the next season occurs.

An that would be exactly why YB would not be a fit in T2.
We play the game the way it was designed to be play, defend your stuff, use any advantage posible to accomplish that goal, and attack the enemy keeps and own their possessions. The fights that occur in the middle is just the ends to that goal and of course that is what makes it fun, the challenge of taking over something and fighting the people preventing it.

I don’t see any fun in running in the middle of nowhere in a blob, spamming all your skills and hoping you can crit harder than the other blob, and that they forget to step out of circles, use water and so on. That is no fun at all, hence why the game is not designed around it.

That is disgusting and foolish.

Disgusting because you are wrong on every count, but have conviction that you’re right.

Foolish because everything you offer as a weakness of tier 2 and fighting guilds are cheap caricatures of the real reasons that we absolutely destroy you every time to crawl out of your fearful EOTM fantasy.

YB4Tier8

Ok another guy that doesn’t know how to play the game, when you can prove to me the game is designed for GvG then you will be right, until then, and according to how the creators of the game designed it, I am right. Most of the “competitive” guilds that quit use the reason that the game is not designed around GvG (Thank the Devs for that). This is WvW, everything revolves around the strength of the server, the community, not just the few.
If you want to prove how good your small few are, you can go tPvP and duke it out there, you don’t have to take the points, you can just see who can kill each other better.

But I feel sorry for you since you keep messing up the queue buttons and going into the wrong location to get what you are looking for.
Assuming you feel you need your gear and food to be competitive because you can’t compete on an equal ground in tPvP, you can always go to OS and spam your “elite” abilities there.

Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to educate you, hope you can find the right place to get what you want out of this game, I know I am getting my moneys worth in WvW by playing it like it is supposed to.

I have no idea who are you to talk for CD and you’re talking as you know how we are and what our plays are like , you can talk from your server prespective which i don’t really care for because they are totally different from each other..where our wvw guilds are oriented on being openfield/gvg guilds and yet have balance between that and PPT but it gets boring when you face server that actually don’t fight.

P.S pvf forums pls respond to my gvg request, i saw someone’s post say TC/PAL/TUNE gvg ?..been over 6 weeks and didnt get 1 gvg out of YB lol

From your post i take it that i know nothing about your server’s playstyle while you seem to know ours.

It takes an expert to know how YB plays ? even the servers that haven’t faced YB knows how they play+ you won the most annoying server to face vote with a pretty good lead lol …just go man an AC , stop posting.

QQ man
Just because we play WvW the as it was designed and meant to be play.
Not our fault you guys still don’t get the concept of WvW, but seeing as how you got totally dominated by DB and YB, you guys don’t stand a chance in T2.
That one week not only did you got rekt, we got to see the true side of CD, full of fairweathers and just a vocal minority that uses the forums wanting to hit T2, that would have killed the server in the long run, all it took was a week of DB and YB to see them running back to PvE.

lol YB chest thumping about PPT? You realize that the PPT system is the whole reason wvw is slowly dying.

I don’t care what server moves up but this game needs fight guilds to organize so the only skill oriented playstyle wvw has to offer doesn’t die out and T2 is the perfect place for it. It’s an established gvg/fight oriented tier with blobs and raiding/gvg guilds. With no gvg mode and no wvw support whats so ever this game is slowly devolving into PPT heros chest thumping on their ACs.

An that would be exactly why YB would not be a fit in T2.

That is a good question, and I believe nope, technically it would be impossible to get the title, but, Anet may be nice to you.

Curse Drew.8679:

Might be cool thing to try for 1 season and see how people react

Suggested Gold League:
BG+IOJ vs. JQ+DR vs. TC+SI
SOS+DB vs. FA+CD vs. YB+MAG

Suggested Silver League:
NSP+ET vs. HOD+AR vs. BP+SF
GOM+FC vs. KAIN+DH vs. SOR+EB

I guess you are trying to troll, the two lowest pop servers in T3/T2 together (YB and Mag)?
SoS and DB? so you will get no fights during NA and they will paper everything during OcX?
It would make more sense (BG can probably go at it alone)
BG vs JQ + IoJ vs TC + NSP
SoS + SBI vs FA + CD vs DB+Mag+YB

That would have almost equal coverage all around.

I don’t want to ally with YB…..

And we don’t wanna ally with whatever server you are on, just saying that would bring the most balanced numbers to the field.

For YB you can include PAL, TUNE, TC that I know do open field and GvG, not sure if they will be interested though.

Also FB is kinda inactive and playing another game, hopefully that will change in the future, same as UL (though they still have some members around).
That said we don’t have the numbers to play T2, once season is over, we will go back to having the population of a low T3 or T4 server, but hopefully people will stick around (instead of going back to PvE) and we will get some good fights in T2.

P.S. Don’t expect anything good the week after the tournament, everyone will be napping and resting,

Excellent idea… though for siege disablers I would rather put a diminishing return, like can’t disable the same siege for 1 minute or so.

Holy walls of text…
So if I get what you are saying right.
Basically this would be a balanced EOTM? except we would pick the color (alliance) we want to be in, and once that hits cap, you would have to pick one of the other colors(alliance)?

Someone please make the guy that came up with those changes the lead manager of GW2, only decent change I have seen in a long time.
And if it is the same person, tell him to thank the Wizard of Oz for finally returning his brain.

Visibility bump for a place you can call home.

Can we fix having to unlock the traits? That part of the system sucks, or at least make it that if I did the trait unlock on a toon, I don’t have to do the whole process all over again on the alts.

If you are [OCX], and you love a challenge, defending and fighting against the odds YB and [FNG] is the server/guild for you.
Great community, drama free.

DrOrange.9230:

Just sayin’ i wouldn’t try to trick people into a server by saying you don’t band wagonw hen you had 1/2 of Mag hop to you guys

If you had half a brain before posting here you would know mag either quit, went to t1, or transferred to DB (look for the only server that is FULL in silver, shouldn’t be too hard to find).
We haven’t had any new people/guilds transfer to our server, we are just a solid stable community, and the people that join stay there (and they join out of their own pockets/free will) since we don’t buy guilds or pay for transfers.
Anyway, even on the official forums we get the tears of our adversaries.
Join us today and become a part of the best community in the game.

Once you go Yak, you never go back.

EotM, you will be done with your achievements in 5 minutes.

It is funny that the daily is harder to achieve, get 2 WvW ranks per day. (at least takes more time)

Is it really just 5 events?
Oh God… that is sad, saw it here as well.

inb4 one of the T3 servers roflstomps during season 3.

Too late.. there is one server that was in T2, now in T3 that is full as of last night.

CrimsonHandHiro.9574:

In a tier SoS has won for nearly 20 weeks straight, Why?

By PvD’ing but that is besides the point… not sure how anyone can transfer to a full server, when you figure that out, let me know, and I will gladly accept you guys paying for my transfer fee.

Have you tried scanning your files? I haven’t seen or heard of anyone having this issue.
Unless you are playing on a MAC, heard that client was having issues, but then that is your fault for not having a real gaming computer, :-p

BTW found this from a red for you.
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/tech/CoherentUI-Host-exe-Crashing#post4380276

From what they mentioned before, yes, it will be the same tokens so you should be able to hold on to them.

Don’t like bandwagons? We don’t either, join us in the campaign to tear them apart.

At least a server in T2 that only PvD won’t be able to PvD their way to victory against the T1 servers.

Glad to know the skill lag wasn’t related to my ISP.
It seem to come and go, at points they fired normally, but most of the time there was a 1/2 to 1 second delay.
