Guild Wars 2

Yep Im getting this in the Diessa Plateau as well now.

Kalevala looking for GvG 20v20. Around Wednesday or Thursday. PM/Mail.

Nice picture Unid. Woman, Hihey or w/e forum megasuperforumwarrior you want to be called. There’s a whole 12-15 Kale ppl there left on the map. Sorry we blobbed you there 5 hours after reset start when SOUL joined the map.

We ran the whole reset alone as we always do. Only blobbed together with GoT against Desolation because quite frankly we couldn’t handle them alone.

Thanks for the compliment though!

PS. I have nothing against grouping up. Not even when enemies smack us with 70 people full of guilds grouped up. Teaches me to not to do stupid kitten. For fair fights there’s GvG.

Also Kalevala looking for GvG 20v20 Thursday evening. Whisper/mail me if interested.

Kalevala looking for GvG 20v20. Wednesday or Thursday evening.

Kalevala looking for a GvG 20v20. Wednesday or thursday, please PM/mail me if interested.

Whisper me for a 20v20 GvG vs Kale. Wednesday evening. PS. fun reset! Kale out.

Thanks for calling us out like that FIRE. Looking through your video it’s easy to see there’s 0 AoEs going to the ground from our side. As stated earlier it was nothing but lagfest for us. We were 25 Kalevala if that’s blob for you then ok.

Keep the respect flowing… Your play is not as great you think~

FSP Bay fight was Greatest lag in a long time and pretty much the whole evening! Would’ve been a great fight but alas, it was utter kitten! Kale ragequit GL with the rest of the evening.

Farshiverpeaks borderland, EU silver league matchup FSP-Gandara-AG. Fights completely ruined by lag, 10s delay on waterfields if the eles could even swap attunements. No veils, no necro spikes even autoattacks dont go off. Would be fights of epic scale with YaK, ONS, VII, FIRE etc. etc.

Enough said we ragequit and this needs to be worked on faster. IT ruins the gameplay completely.

To all factions and participators of this thread. Please check the video itself before posting anything. This way we can get a proper discussion of the situation. Thank you. Video can be found in my first post of this thread.

Furthermore, I play a warrior aswell, if I really want to banner something I can do it even when there’s 90 ppl between me and the target. I think ressing the lord with banner is okay but perhaps it should not completely reset the cap bar. Instead once lord is up it could start slowly going down. This way if the lord is instantly killed after the cap is delayed but not permanently.

Thank you all!

I was leading Kalevala on this incident. We took the job of focusing on guarding the champ. We focused every single warrior that we saw coming; problem is garrison lord room is wide open. Every position you can pull the lord in has at least 4-5 different angles to come in from. 1 warrior can have 2x invulnerability +shield, 3x stability and the banner. Banner takes 2 seconds to cast. You may be able to strip down one warrior completely with your group but when 3 warriors are coming in nonstop from all angles, there’s nothing to be done.

Naturally hats off to GH for managing to hang in there. Ty RAGE for the evening. We had A LOT of kills there but it really wasn’t fun in garrison. :D

Our raid was 25 men at start and about 15 at the end of that fight because people, quite frankly, just went to bed :D.

PS. since I was interested personally of votf view of the fight I dug it up. Here it is http://www.twitch.tv/xsuperxgw2/c/3053707 , over an hour fight a banner dropping approximately every 20 seconds. Gj!

Ooooooo, now I get it. Wiped = they still alive standing next to you. Okok! I mean I look at the SS and I see punk alive next to you.

At this point i’m just wondering how you [HT] manage to keep your members in the guild, when the leaders are abyssmally embarassing.

And that was from HT leader? personally I would’ve just booted batista from the guild and be done with it. Guess the trolling runs deep in HT.

Truly a scar in otherwise excellent GH guild community.

35 on peak there, 35 haakkel! Just to set it clear :] And now ~~ when we just ended and the last hour had about 25~. Good fun GH, thank you, kalevala out.

Ty as well Denied was fun, although it’s not good to stay up all night like that ~.~

Regarding to builds! The stun kitten build did overcome the condi one and for small squads it is very much more viable.

Agreed, that the build of yours is awesome and it probably makes enemies jimmies rustle a bit better, thus making it more fun to play.

Also plsnerf!

Edit: Without going into too much detail, thinking of the build you are lacking condition removes and stun breaks.
The fights that you win, you would also win without the “fear me” helping you soak the damage in. Perhaps change that into “shake it off”? Shorter CD, condi remove & stun break.

Much love, Q.

Cu in the field!

Dear VaaCrow, on behalf of Kalevala I’m glad to hear our efforts to rustle your jimmies is working flawlessly. Please continue your ongoing quest to glory.

Your valuable input here in forums really keeps us going day in and day out! Please try to post videos or screenshots next time so we in Kalevala get to your level.Thank you.

Looking through the match up statistics. UW only ticks super high during night. Prime time FSP seems to be gaining a lot more points. Eg. at reset 1am finnish time FSP leads by 6k. 8 hours from that UW leads by 6k. During day FSP catches up consistently and bellyflops again at 1am finnish time.

Gonna need a nightteam in FSP to survive the silverleague.

Kale ended for tonight. Ty for the evening aVa, LD, RS, RL and whoever followed.

Kale ended im AM. Thanks for the smush ADAC and megasuperduperblob.

Just to correct Amelia, FSV was only the latest full scale guild transfer. Before that we lost 2 big late night guilds Italian TNN with Ciuffo and lion who just loved hills keep no matter what map. GoT’s been a bit on a summer break etc. etc.

These things snowball and it’s not only the guilds. There’s been a huge flow of singles moving to greener pastures aswell. Ruins of Surmia is a prime example of this. Two of it’s biggest guilds VcY & RiOT bail out will not only result them leaving but many will follow over the months because of the performance drop in the PPT game.

Want it or not , after all the talk of open field fights and such it is a game of supplies and objectives, which 90% of people in all servers play for. If the server is bad at this it will lose the backbone of people who are willing to stay up the nights and guard keeps/towers. Having everything taken by the enemy and upgraded through the night will drop morality of the people that play in the morning, especially if it happens every day. Thus it escalates and people will just skip the week rather than bust their nuts on a daily basis on superior hordes.

FSP has enough guilds to cover one map per evening properly on prime time. Even though the game is still fun for the people that are in these guilds ,I can see why outsiders don’t even bother popping in WvW. For guilds no queues ever to anything is good though but winning weeks is better for population.

As an endnote, league system will change most of these issues because server pride has meaning after it. Most of the now inactive semi-wvwv guilds what I have talked with will become more active. Hope the people and guilds that transferred found what they were looking for. Moving servers to me is same as giving up.

Perhaps the guild SURI should start doing WvWvW then and promote the play instead of forum q.q. FSP community is not dead there’s still all the infrastructure available for grouped play. Server has it’s own ts, webpage, forums, apps and new commanders have plenty of channels where they could get info on tactics. That being said, you and the general community just need to start using them.

As for guilds and wvwvw veterans the server has lost many due to transfers but the ones we have left have good relations. I personally try to be in touch with the WvWvW guild leaders every now and then. Especially been having extremely fun times running same BLs with PunK lately.

FSP’s best open for all guild is definately AoA so, if you’re a solo player that wants to be more organised contact them. We do need more guilds though and the only way to get those is to have the 5000000 PvE guilds, including SURI?, FSP has to start running events AT LEAST once a week. A five man group can effectively increase our coverage on empty maps, disrupt supplies, ninja towers etc.

So less q.q, a fast peek into the mirrror and go from there.

Gj FIRE for wiping and hunting 15 kale ppl on funday monday. It was only necros, engis and eles. :d You guys so full of arrogance it’s not even funny. Keep bandwagoning and posting in the forums that’s the way to go, if you want fights swap to RoS and try that.

PS. Don’t even know why your guild leaders allow you to post that stuff with tag up.

Best to lead in this 30s spikefest. Servers seem to be clogged up for some reason. Random DCs rubberbanding, skill lag, and worst of all across map warping as commander. Not gonna be super fun evening. Let’s hope Anet fixes this fast.

Edit: Yup, thanks for the smush FIRE and VcY. Got an easy target from us today. Kalevala canceling today’s event. Cu all tomorrow.

To XxX, once we were noobs, guild from Gandara. Your group is good, nobody is denying that. FSP was running a co-guild event on ER BL. PunK, Kale and FSV not blobbing but mainly hitting the same BL. Kalevala was 20 strong FSV and PunK were both near 15. There’s no fair fights ever in WvWvW field. That’s what GvG is for.

Please make sure you notice the difference between WvWvW and GvG. At least Irie guild from ER, props to them aswell, can take the death like men. They would crush Kale 1v1 as it stands now anyways. I have no interest whatsoever to force the GvG rules over the whole playing field of WvWvW. If you get flanked by other guild while hitting one of us in the back it’s only playing WvWvW as it should be played.

TLDR; WvWvW is not GvG

Why would we even want to take your VcY group on as singles since Kale was biggest group on that map and we were 25 strong. You do the math. Guess you enjoy rolling everything free?

I can tell you’re good with highlighting things out by bolding it but perhaps reading comprehension is not your strong suite.

Saying that I got bored getting rolled over by RiOT is by no means the same as me complaining about their numbers. It is just me saying, hey we getting rofl stomped and it isn’t super fun so I better amp the numbers too with a tag to make something happen.

WvWvW as a point game is firstly and mostly coverage dependant.

As an open field battle game, organised guild groups are strongest. However, if you put two guilds with same level of skill on the field it becomes somewhat a numbers game (not counting in siege or hitting the other group in the back).

Should one of the teams have enough people over the other even a perfect flank will not make you win the fight. The only way to measure the combat “skill” of a guild group is through the unofficial GvG format, since you remove the siege, positional play, buffs gained by killing things and the number difference. This is also why Kalevala will be aiming to start GvGing at the end of this month.

GvG format has very little to do with WvWvW though. A good commander in a fight can still suck big time in decision making on what to hit and when to hit in the field and vice versa. For higher tiers where there are queues always on maps these GvGs with their spectators can actually hurt the ‘real’ WvWvW by not allowing the actual WvWvWers on the map. (1 year and a game called guild wars, no guild vs. guild, lol)

Any number of people is fine at any given time and place as long as it doesn’t create skill lag on the map. When skill lag is present the game loses all meaning. FSP bl yesterday was lag free, so all good.

Saying sorry to blobbing VcY with EB crew does NOT contradict the earlier statement whatsoever,nor does it make me a hypocrite because I was not complaining about RiOT numbers. I merely stated a fact that we couldn’t win a fight straight up with our numbers. Very much so as VcY could not win a fight in EB against the blob.

Neither of the situations were unfair as long as WvWvW as a whole is concerned. Commanders should not engage fights they can’t win. Unless you like suiciding a bit with a good smush, like most guilds in the game do. Running away is a taboo, even though sometimes it’s absolutely the smartest thing to do.

Same for using game mechanics such as siege, that are ment to bring tactics and timing in the game. Most guild groups forget that they’re on a WvWvW field and q.q about ACs in towers and keeps. They try to implement GvG rules such as no interrupting fights on the whole playing field.

So as an end note if you see Kalevala people on the field I beg you to gank us with everything you have because that’s the right thing to do. Death is part of the game and that if anything teaches you to stop making stupid things.

PS. RiOT has a good WvWvW commander. Good usage of supplies, siege placement and timings.

Hi, I was leading Kalevala today at FSP. Got bored of fighting the RiOT semiblob with 20~ , give or take 3, guildies alone. (Because clearly there was nothing we could’ve done vs. it) so I hit the blue shiny tag up at the end to just rage thru hills before doors upgrade.

What comes to the comments about zoomhacking. I was personally manning each and every counter siege built. You might wanna check “Radius upgrade” for ACs. Any further ‘zoomhacking’ q.q you can discuss with me in the field.

Against VcY I commanded in EB last night before they left it completely. Sorry for overpowering with numbers but it’s WvWvW after all.

Good guilds, good fights RoS. Give Xerion back. All my rage.

@iorlas if you play for the scores even for the slightest I’m sure even You can come to the conclusion that there’s actually some logic to go UW BL instead of AG.

Any further info(bu*thurt) you may have, you can discuss about it with my hammer on the field.

Hi UW and AG. Had some fun popping the tag up sunday night and earlier today evening though I mostly lead Kalevala in WvW these days.

Just wanted to clear out some things, since apparently both of the sessions caused some but¤hurt in certain UW individuals. Firstly, I got fired up to command a night team because I watched UW have free reign on Fsp bl, which culminated to a garri cap against a handful of defenders.

I felt a bit upset about it on a personal level so I figured that I might aswell do something about it. After around 45minutes of cat and mice and us recapping bay your BL crew got totally fed up and left. Quickly capped whole BL back then ported EB and recapped everything there of our areas.

Wanted purely some payback so ported EB crew to UW BL capped bay and because it had 500supplies decided to continue to try garrison. Saw AG pushing hills and yea that only made the odds better for the push.

No secret plans were made with AG. After ported back to Eb took AG T3 sm and hit the sack.

Today in EB was amusing myself with the AG EB crew fought hours and hours with their zerg only because UWs prsence on the map was sad to say the least. AG crew was playing dirty with double agents but had a blast anyways :p so ty for the core TS group of that zerg.

After a while I wanted to play exclusively with guildies and due to our point difference being so low with UW we went uw bl to drop upgrades and lower your tally. Couldnt care less if AG pushed hills or not. Again no foilhats or conspiracy theories needed.

TLDR, fsp and ag dont work together. Never have, never will.

Your bay fell yesterday to 6 rams by kalevala. Not to a golem rush. There were people defending it at lord but not organised enough. After that your BL got ransacked pretty badly. —just to correct your misunderstanding.

We decided to go to your BL for the very reason that you were pushing ours. Did this Just to avoid the back and forth lagfest with siege around immortal lord room where you can port 600 supplies in every 3 minutes with 30s window.

Fair enough managed to get some open field fights afterwards but they were pretty one sided. Good defense when you got the WPs but need more work in anticipating enemy moves beforehand if you want to defend without them. All in all UW you have become a better server than I remember.

PS. I forfeited PUG commanding and only work to strengthen Kalevala’s guild play nowadays.

Best regards,
Cmdr. Q.
