Guild Wars 2

I’g just like to say a huge thank you to the people who organise this. Its an awesome event and so good to see something that reaches out beyond gaming to something bigger.

GW-EN, you folks are amazing as are all those who ran the event so ty all

I think anything that potentially hampers legitimate placement and building of siege is likely to be very counterproductive. As an example a guildee and I have often quickly sieged up an empty keep before and tried to cover as many possible breach points as we can. That can involve up to 8 trebs and 16 superior ac’s, which we’ve completed in about 20-25 minutes. The initial depletion of supply from this can be quite substantial but we’ve never had complaints from the server about it as the benefits are greater than the negatives. We also often take responsibility for upgrading and sieging a keep on reset so i’m all to aware of the problems that lack of supply can cause

Conversely I’ve also seen keeps emptied to build rams an walls and all the other types of griefing mentioned in the thread so far.

My suggestions

add an identifier to siege prints when dropped “press F to build trebuchet” etc or even a different base appearance to a siege site when placed for different siege weapons which would make it easier for people to be selective about what they build.

A claiming guild (keeps towers etc) should be allowed to dismantle troll siege and similarly to avadore suggests have an option to lock down siege placement within that keep or open it for all. This would also give guilds another incentive to claim keeps.

Have a system that would enable the forced “unclaiming” of keeps if , for example 10 guilds voted to disallow the claim then the keep revert to unclaimed. This would hopefully avoid siege trolls claiming a keep to drain supply and allow servers to in some ways police themselves (reducing the amount of GM involvement)

Add “griefing” as an option in the report options because unfortunately there will always be those who think that its fun to throw down 20 ballistas on a ram build site. While that might increase the workload on GM’s in the short term, if the sanctions for griefing were significant then people would be less inclined to engage in this sort of behaviour anyway?

whether a hallmark players from Gunnar’s Hold server is always boorishness?

On behalf of PRXM I can only apologise for our members who did that, its not behavioour that we condone and wwe have reminded our members of that. If you happened to get the account name please pm me and I can speak to them directly

same problem on Gunnar’s Hold

fipz.1508:

Yes, thanks back to you. Was great fighting and I think more or less equal in win/loss numbers. Was the first we had a guild zerg (more than 5 ppl counts as zerg for us hehe.)

Hope to fight you again !

Cheers

Was fun fighting Wipe and yeah we came out at the end of the night on about equal terms. I can’t remember if it was you guys that set up an AC just outside the west gate of the north supply camp but that gave us some giggles

Also thanks to Buka (sorry if i mis spelled that) you gave us some nice fights as well as did some of the small to mid sized AG groups that were on the map

Kencu.5846:

It doesn’t bother me personally but yeah, it’s bad for your server’s reputation..

All we can ask from the people on WSR that were witness to that screenshot/conversation is please don’t judge the whole server by the people who arrived in your LA and tried to recruit. Its not classy behaviour at all.

Vabbi doesn’t care who we get put against.

No, but the server who is punished to be in your tier does.

But didn’t RioT transfer to RoS to get away from the huge zergs and enjoy smaller scaled fights? Thought this match would have suited you perfectly

Gotta say that from a GH player its not been our worst reset ever, even though we got hit hard by both PS and RS on our own borders and were a little shellshocked at the matchup we’ve had some good fights tonight. PS seem like a good bunch of people in general and RS well, lets just say only really seen your backs as you run back to the nearest arrow cart

TaoRay.3094:

Thanks to PRXM and XxX for the nice fights on EB tonight!

You folks were stubborn as hell and gutsy alongside that, you just kept coming at us time and time again and gave us some good fights. Swat definitely earned some respect tonight from PRXM

Well Krew have just gone to bed and surely enough left GH 6k points in the lead after an exhausting night of PvDoor’ing. They came up against 6 defenders in Mendon and Ogrewatch though so it took the 25 of them, wait for it…..4 hours to take those two towers. Another Xaoc all over, GH rises up a tier or so comes up against another night crew, Krew get fed up of the connection they have and leave them, then GH plummet back down to where they should be. I like even matches guys even if you win, how about you ditch the yanks and come fight us toe to toe on this huh?

I’m sure Krew can speak for themselves but you had way more than 6 people at mendons (I know because I was there). Yes they do a lot of night capping but thats about where the comparison with Xaoc ends.

They’ve been a great addition to GH, we’re very happy to have Krew here and they’re showing themselves to be a great group of folks.

As for the match itself, its been great so far. We’ve had a lot of good fights and hope to have plenty more over the coming week

you are lucky since gunar’s hold is a mid-tier wvw server with medium population that means transfers are free, contact me ingame if you are intrested – Arathor Greywing

Have to say I agree with Yorric on this. Its been a really good match up so far and I’ve seen plenty of fighting between AM and MS. Please don’t sour it with unfounded accusations of alliances.

Had some really good fights with both Abbadons and Millers this week, hope both of your servers are enjoying the match as well.

Well done FSP sieging and using the zoom mod to hit with arrow carts through the closed gates at hills on Gh border right now, hope you feel proud of that accomplishment

Zidd.6083:

You have my respect, and so does everyone else I killed. None of which had no weapons equipped though. Don’t make things up to make yourself sound better. Thanks for honing my skills btw.

Oh i can definitely confirm that wepons were stowed on players from GH as well as our guests from FSP. We on GH made a point of either asking or reminding people to do so to avoid any accidental attacks. However once you and your friends started behaving like a group of immature 2 year old seeking attention that didn’t mean we didn’t have utility skills still available and personally i quite enjoyed watching my pet hit you while you tried to run away. I wasn’t expecting any loot bags from the party so thanks for delivering those to us though.

Oh and i hope our guests also got a few bags from the few people on gh that seemed to fail at listening a couple of times, you might have noticed that once you killed them we made a group decision not to revive them so you could have a little fun corpse jumping them

Thanks to those from FSP who came along especially DW. It could have turned a bit ugly when RoP turned up but we had to laugh when you started corpse jumping them, and apologies from GH for the actions of a couple of people on our side who refused to listen when told not to attack.

It was really good meeting you out of combat for a change and heres hoping we have some more good fights over the next week in the same spirit as the last few matchups have been
