Guild Wars 2

I think it’s kind of funny hearing how TC militia commanders run them off the map. I’ve ran with RET quite a few times and I remember wiping 30-40 man TC zergs with 20-25 people. I’m pretty sure you’re militia groups were more than twice the size in numbers than what they were fielding. They have some great commanders in stawker, zoel, and novus if he’s still with them. I would recommend them to anyone who likes to wvw.

I think you’re right, they should make it to where a commander tag is not visible in wvw unless they have completed all of the following.
25k kills reasonable, except zerg kills don’t count. Anyone tagged by more than 5 people does not count towards your 25k kills.
500 gold spent on upgrades has to be gold earned in wvw, not pve or bought with gems.
2500 keep defenses and captures, they should all be captures or defenses of smc.
How many do you still have to complete?

It’s been some great fights with both DB and TC over the weekend. I’ve always loved fighting TC myself even through the endless losses to you guys in T3. They were some great fights and still are. You never know how a group vs. group fight is going to turn out no matter who you facing. One of the major contributors is which side has the most rally bots (up leveled or non geared players). The side with the most people in toughness gear has the advantage, but class composition takes a major role in not only strategies, but how a fight plays out. Not too mention the number of people in voice chat that are actually listening to the commander, or the other group that comes in and blindsides both groups and it ends up being a 3-way fight. Keep up the good fights and lets continue to have fun this week, and don’t feed the trolls.

Glad to see you guys on the other side of the field once again Db. Always enjoyed fighting you guys almost as much at TC. Good luck to everyone this week and have fun. May your bags be filled with rares and exotics and that oh so sought after precurser that makes you want to have to find time to pve so you can make a legendary

It’s been fun fighting against you guys these last few weeks. I’d say make sure you look into the servers you’re transferring to and find one that could use help during your time slot to maybe balance out a tier. If your guild isn’t enjoying the fights, then it is time to transfer to another server because enjoying games is what playing games is supposed to bring. Good luck in the future and maybe we’ll see each other on the battle field once again.

Congratulations TC on filling some of your coverage gap. Now if we could just get some people to transfer to KN during NA prime time and keep them from dropping to T3 we’d be good to go. It has been a blast fighting against the two of you these last few weeks. I really hate to see you guys (KN) drop to T3 since unless DB has received quite a few transfers they will probably get blown out here in T2. We tend to not fight for ppt as much as most servers here on FA, more about the fights and having fun, but we do make sure we keep enough to not drop back down to a lower bracket so that we can keep the good fights going.

It’s been a great fight this week. TC you guys always put up a good fight. I did see WM last night when they tried to take SMC and almost succeeded. If it wasn’t for the 15 superior ballistas and 10 superior arrow carts we probably wouldn’t of held them off. They’re definitely still there. Probably just burnt out from working over time the last few weeks and not playing the long hours. As for the increased FA presence? I think we have a larger number of pve players participating in wvw this week than usual. Maybe they got tired of fractals and new mario game. May my loot bag drop a precursor to one of you and you end up forever tormented in trying to get the map completion because that requires so much pve and you just can’t seem to find time to a break from the fun

I play on FA and it’s been some great match ups with TC and KN these last few weeks. If you’re NA prime time and would like some great fights then I would recommend transferring to KN. They could use some help during that time. If you’re SEA or Oceanic I’d recommend TC or you could come join us on FA, we wouldn’t mind. Both of us could use some help at that time to make some good fights for the KN guilds on at that time. This tier has great action with epic fights that always make for fun nights where you win or lose the battle.

You guys did a great job this week TC. Fun fights all around. Especially the 3 way we created when we came across you guys fighting KN. That was a long fight and finally used our tactic and came up behind us to wipe us when we thought we were coming up behind you. That was great fight.

Some good fights as always with you guys. The 2v1 conspiracy will never die. For just cause, it will always be a 2v1. Prime example was we (FA) were inside hills and KN was inside hills as well. We used catapults to take down the inside wall and press the lords room. I’m pretty sure KN kept any TC reinforcements from getting in so they could come in behind us after both sides were short from fighting each other and take the keep. Which is what happened. No matter what in a 1v1v1 it’s going to be a 2v1. Just who’s on the receiving end at the moment. To the people from my server that keep crying about this please stop, and just enjoy the fights. Here’s to another fun week with loot bags for all, and hopefully one of you gets a precursor from the bag I drop.

I think it’s been a week of great battles. 2v1? what do you expect, it makes the game funner. I hope KN doesn’t move up for at least a few more weeks myself. I’ve enjoyed some good fights with them. Always had good fights with TC even when they crushed us for months. Now for another week of great battles and hopefully a closer over all score would be great.

Since WvW was intended for groups to take and defend objectives, that’s what they should base the wvw xp off of. This would not only get rid of the argument of how the xp per kill is split, but encourage teamwork and playing for points. The amount of xp you receive should be based on the reward level for your participation in an event.

I want to thank everyone from TC and KN for great fights this week. Hopefully we can get at least a couple more weeks in before KN moves up to T1 and leaves us behind. I look forward to another week filled with some epic battles.

I’ll add my 2c. I’ve fought quite a few thieves. I’ve killed a few of them, sent a few running, and died to even more. Can’t really say they need to nerf stealth until they fix culling. There should be maybe a 3-4 second cool down on going back into stealth after breaking. I also think they need to change it so that you can only stealth when attacking something that would grant xp for killing it and not stacking the duration on inanimate objects.

They took away orange swords for five people or less, and now you want them to take away the white ones too? Why don’t you just ask to take away swords all together or make it 30 people for white swords on a objective and 60 for orange swords.

They already upgraded the drops in wvw. I got a precurser the other day. Granted it was for the trident, but I did get a precurser drop in wvw. Not sure if it came from killing another player or from one of the guild claimers in a keep. I didn’t notice it until I went to empty my bags because I ran out of space.

I leveled my elementalist almost strictly by pvp. When I hit 80 I had 28% map completion with all of the pvp zones completed. I would recommend pve until 20 just so that you can equip the steel harvesting items since you get more xp for harvesting in wvw zones than in normal zones and the harvesting everything combined with taking objectives will allow for quick leveling.

This will be interesting to see how it plays out. I could see the damage being reduced by aoe if the number of targets are increased. I wonder how this is going to effect melee characters though. How many of your skills are actually single target. I know when I was trying a couple melee classes, most of the skills hit more than one target and would therefore count as an aoe and fall under the nerf.
