Guild Wars 2

Kaga.7629:

Hello. My name is Kaga, and for now 3 weeks I’ve been blue, which means the worst spot in edge : Frostreach. The fantastic Ice Palace. In a way, it reminds me of Maguuma proper, since you’re always outnumbered.

And lo, the great dual comms strategy emerged, and team Kaga & friends went to work on perfecting that defense, farming the zergs coming in, reaping us a great baggie harvest with a generous side of zergling tears. The anguish generated by operation defense for the past 2 weeks had escaped the confines of the overflows, and is now on blast on the forums. AND I REJOICE !

The defenses (events) and the retakes do give rewards. But killing zergs 3 to 4 times your numbers feels much better. Against the grain of the karmatrainers that believe you should let it be capped and just recap it, The ice castle got defended against overwhelming odds. A great many defenses ( for season) and kills were obtained by the happy edgerunners of Frostreach.

And by the time the enemies fear and back off the slice … then the raids begin. Unless spotted and acted upon quickly, Kaga’s infamous sneakystyle raids have produced dragonite for the hardworking defenders of frostkeep. Because tactics do serve a purpose in edge of the myst.

If i’m around and running things, beware! Commander Kaga farms j00, ktrainer ! (And yes, I’ve had 4 hour frostkeep flawless defense matches. )

Oh, and this was found this week . Made my day ! http://captiongenerator.com/15883/Eotm-Karma-Train

I just wanted to say that I love your commanding style in EOTM. I was able to run with you yesterday and your sneak-style of commanding along with your views on defense is very refreshing. Your map movement and personality

Personally I think Frost Keep is the easiest to defend out of the 3 keeps, since the inner keep layout is so small, a few trebs/catas is enough to hold off the enemy while you rain down arrows on them. The slow debuff also helps in the defense of blue as well.

Your map rotations and personality is amazing as well! I would follow you again 1000000/10 =).

I saw the post on reddit yesterday and I wanted to say thank you for making this! It has actually helped me out a bit in envisioning how I would want to play some of the other classes that I have yet touched for tPvP/sPvP

Amazing Guild, definitely should check it out ;D. They also have theme nights too!

I am glad that I will never need those Silver Doubloonsc.

I am currently rank 630ish and I have gotten about 4-5 Ascended Trinkets, but that was over a large time span… But I found an Ascended Cleric Weapon Box and Ascended Knight Armor earlier this week. Not sure if the drop rate was increased or I just got lucky with those drops. The Ascended Knight Drop was from either a Veteran Scout or an enemy player…

I got lucky about 3 months ago and found a precursor drop off a Veteran Scout though =D.

Bump! Come check us out =).

lolol, Karn. My guess would be that they disperse themselves onto all the servers.

DI people are amazing =). Definitely check them out!

Keep in mind that you can also unlock the traits by doing other content in GW2. You don’t have to spend 3 Gold and some trait points etc… to unlock it.

Based on the Dev Stream (Only one was seen) but you could unlock one of the Grand Master Traits for a Ranger by pushing for Arah by killing the Risen Wizard.

Yes it is some of the PvE content and it does essentially require you to run all the way to Cursed Shore with a level 80… but it does not cost Gold or Skill points. So it could essentially be a barrier for some of the people that play exclusively sPvP. Just keep in mind that you can get it for free by completely PvE events.

Keep in mind that once you unlock an amulet that it is account bound in sPvP. They are only charging the 10 gold to unlock the new amulet stats, from what I recall there are only 2 new amulet sets which is Cavalier and Magi (there maybe more) and they plan on introducing more stat combinations eventually…

For the Runes and Sigils, I don’t recall how much gold it is to unlock the ability to use them… but they are only introducing Runes of Travelers into sPvP (from what I recall since they scrapped Perplexity Runes)

Sigils, I think there are probably about 2 of them at the Live Stream I watched (Renewal and Generosity)

I was wondering if the Dungeon Tracks will be giving Dungeon Tokens. During the LiveStreams they only mentioned that you could get weapon and armor from the said Tracks.

One way to find out for sure But as far as I know they won’t. It just seems like skins/mats/tomes of knowledge (so the items directly). Dungeon tokens will always be a reward for dungeons only, otherwise there would be no point to running dungeons :X Dungeons tokens are for skins anyways, so we just basically just skip the purchasing part.

Who wants to party up tomorrow and finish all the story modes?

I will, but only cause you got all the shiny skins to illuminate the way through all these modes I’ve never done before.

Yeah! Team AOTM.

Yeah, I wasn’t sure, since I did recall the Devs saying that they wanted people that played sPvP the ability to make their legendary through sPvP. The only exclusion that I recall that they had mentioned was the Gift of Exploration (Map Completion) and Gift of Battle. They didn’t mention anything regarding the tokens needed for the Gift of (Dungeon) necessary to make a Legendary.

Fingers Cross I hope that you could get tokens as part of the Dungeon Reward Track, if not, I will be le sad, since I don’t want to do Arah Runs for my Legendary =(.

Greetings,

I just wanted to say that the video was amazing. With a Staff Elementalist as my main, I want to say that you have actually have inspired me to try out using Staff on my elementalist instead of switching to D/D everytime when I want to duel.

I usually do solo roam as a Staff Elementalist in WvW but I usually never end up killing my opponent because of the lack of damage with my 0-10-0-30-30 with 3 Cantrips. I am definitely going to try out using more Arcane utilities later today when I get home.

Maybe I will see you around in OS sometime this week or future matchups!

Welcome [PR] Phoenixes Reborn! Looking forward to see you all around =)

1. Skill Lag, Some Rubberbanding, There have been a few times that I have been kicked out of WvW without warning (not AFK and no disconnect)

2. Isle of Janthir

3. Yes

4. I believe so

5. Sometimes I experience lag randomly, even if there is no zerg near my location. I will experience lag if there is a large fight on the other side of the map.
I also experience lag in fights if I am involved (if there are like 30 plus ppl total in the fight)

I’m tapping this like one of FA’s keeps

I’d tap any keep!

Ioj is hardly the underdog for silver season 2. they are kicking yaks and bps butt atm. Look like they will place in the top half this season.

We will be having a tough fight for 2nd or 3rd place for Season 2. (Probably will be fighting SBI and HoD for those places. I am not sure how the #s of HoD are right now since they got a bunch of guild transfers there from the free transfers).

The reason why we have such a high score right now against the two is because BP lost a few of their big guilds and YB lost a few other guilds as well (not as many as YB).

This looks like a cool guild ;D. Too bad that I am already active in two other guilds (1 for PvE and another for WvW) and am on another server =(.

Bumping this up

Definitely consider IoJ as a server transfer! It has been an amazing community!

I am really excited for what is to come for Season 2 and hope to see some more guilds or people come to IoJ =)

I think there might be a typo for the pricing for NA Server 12. Because it says that NA 1-12 is 2400 gems but NA 12-15 is 0.

My best guess is that Server 12 is going to have a 2400 gem charge and they meant to have NA 13-15 as 0 instead.

It is a typo of some sort. Based on former leagues and their current pricing I would have guessed their pricing at:

1-9 = 2400
10-12 = 800
13-15 = 0
16-18 = 800
19 and below = 0

Probably better:
— Gold
1-3 = 2400
4-6 = 1200

— Silver
7-9 = 1800
10-12 = 900
13-15 = 0

— Bronze
16-18 = 600
19 and below = 0

I was actually expecting that the new Transfer Pricing would have followed something like this… since it did seem most logical

There is probably a typo for NA Server 12 because it is listed in both 2400 Gems and 0 gems. My guess is that it probably will be 2400 gems and not free.

What ever happens in the next 1-2 weeks will be interesting to see fluxes in WvW populations.

My guess is that NA #12 will probably cost 2400 gems, because EU has their #12 as 2400. We just have to wait for Anet to address the typo/issue.

I am more worried about last 4 servers in EU leagues. These servers are really disadvantaged because they will not get enought tickets to get Mistforged Hero’s Weapon.

It appears to me the gift of heroes is purchasable with tickets OR badges of honour, in which case, even the server who gets the lowest reward of 200 tickets could get 2x mistforged weapons? Maybe they clarified elsewhere this wasn’t the case?

My guess is that the Gift of Heroes requires both badges of honor and 200 tickets, so 1st-3rd place servers can probably make two?
