Poor Quaggans

Yes. And as I’ve always said, You can learn a lot from the Quaggens.

Get your “Wasted Space” Title off the Quaggens! :P

I would just like to say great job to JQ for quickly making up the deficit during the week. Your server has always had great tactics! Even when you are outmanned you play great! I am originally from SBI and I knew that you would come back after the weekend. We will continue to try and play our best, but hats off to you.

I really can’t think of a faster way to destroy wvw than getting rid of the score. Playing to win is important to most gamers imo.

I don’t understand why you think if JQ won tier 1 they might suddenly drop to Tier 4. Please explain what you mean. How would that be possible?

You can also only claim once the Righteous Indignation buff is gone/nearly gone (ie, 4+ minutes after your team has claimed an objective).

that something i didn’t know very good information.

Actually what happens is the game figures out which of the guilds that helped in the taking of the location had the first claim to the camp/keep/etc.
I ‘believe’ it is worked out based on total number of your guilds players present against the total number of players in your guild, to give you a %. the guild present with the best % of active present players of thier guild gets a 3min window to claim the objective before the objective is open to anyone that wants to claim it.

The only unsure fact in the above is the calculation, but after much testing its the closest we have come to the calc.

Either way, you can claim the objective right away if your are the eligible guild.

I am pretty sure it just depends on who had the most people capture the camp gets first right to claim it. After that it is about a 2 minute wait.

Once you activate the buff(s) they are good for 12 hours (iirc) If someone takes your claimed camp or tower, you can claim it again to reapply the buff, or you can claim camps as you roam the area if you are a small guild and need everyone to have +15. IE have it follow you.

Once you activate the +15 supply queue it again for the next day right then! It only costs 200 and every single guild should be doing this.

Also, the 1 camp, 1 tower applies per borderland. So if your borderlands aren’t always full, jump to other borderlands and claim there as well for your team. The ones you claimed on the BL you are playing on will remain.

On another note: if your guild has the cash you can buy your way to upgrades by buying drinks for the city of LA. The guy is in a cubby hole by the bank.

It is possibly a bug and should be reported as such. And yes fivekiller, I think it works like that for everyone. Unable to invite without typing in their name or clickling them if I see them in wvw.

I googled your message and came up with this:
Change the name of installer file to GW2.exe

Ctrl / mouse 2 (on the skill which is on the bar) works as a toggle to disable and enable auto attacks.

Score Update: JQ is catching up. SoS is fighting back hard! This week is gonna be a close one!

Oh, nice! What a nail biter! Keep us posted!

Score update brought to you by Feisty (and friend):

Great picture with a kitty!

I have read people saying your local.dat file should be under 20 MB’s and to delete it if you are having problems.

Go my documents, guildwars2 folder, and delete local.dat, then run the game.

I have not tried it myself.

If you want a sneaky, skilled server I would recommend Jade Quarry. I have seen more tactics used when playing against them than any other server. They are currently (AFAIK) fighting for 2nd place in Tier 1. I am not sure they have the numbers to ever take first place, time will tell… but they sure have the tactics.

You couldn’t find a better home than SBI.

edited to clarify… Meant shouldn’t have transferred to, what it looks like, strongest server in this tier.

Don’t be silly, they should have moved to Kaineng.

Kaineng is on the way up and is in too low a bracket atm. It is not the server you remember as being last.

/me notices a swift breeze pushing its way through the area above your head.

The joke was that even more guilds should bandwagon to Kaineng than already have.

Sorry, sarcasm is hard to catch in a forum post :P

Server transfers have been a huge problem. This is a welcomed change even though we will have to brace ourselves for one more fallout.

To answer your question: here is a cut and paste from a post I made 9 days ago.

How things play out for us (SBI) starting around 11pm PST. every night. We have already lost the few things we had in JQ BL. We never had anything in the SoS BL. SOS starts taking everything in EB and once EB is left with 1 tower and a camp they head over to SBI BL at which point our commanders all have to go to bed.

“Inc. AH (camp) 50”
“50? Look again”
“You count them then”
“Oh ok, at LEAST 50 maybe more”
——————————

“How many are on Bay?”
“About 30-40”
“OK let’s save it pls”
10 of us show up. Lost.

“Hills inc! Can we please try and save that?”
4 of us show up. Lost.

Ok they will head CS or LV or Garr. It’s all we have left. They hit 1 or 2 or all 3.

“Ok we have 1700 supplies in Garrison we need to dump. Start dumping them”

Lost. Well, we only left them with 200 supplies instead of 500 at least.

SBI ppt +35

1:30am – 2:30am ish PST time for bed I guess.

It is frustrating being on a server that a large guild decides to bail on. HoD was an extreme example and it was terrible. I can’t really forgive TA (more than 1 guild) for treating it’s militia like that and leaving us to rot a slow death. I would have stayed if it had been a quick drop in tiers but it wasn’t.

Figures… I get epic health problems and WvWvW becomes fun again when I can’t play.

Glad to hear SBI is putting up a fight.

Hope everything is ok Luna. Hurry back please! CG isn’t cracking the whip about them yaks like you do! And Hills keeps getting lost because it has no queen.

Jeknar.6184:

It may be too soon to say that we lost, but the status isn’t the best right now…

OH GOD I LOVE that picture
edit: not the score, but the picture.

Wasn’t happy to see a member of FEAR underground preventing a cap at a camp on SBI BL’s lastnight. Although we did finally kill him it wasn’t an honorable thing to do.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v510/Ferrydust/gw821_SOR_Fear_Underground_zpsd3eeb740.jpg

this was simple case of gw2 pixels, I was on coms when this happened I immeditaly told him to port back, but he was in combat so he alt f4’ed in no way was he trying to undermap by any means or prevent cap of a supply camp….

but again thank you for pointing this out at FEAR or SoR we do not condone exploiting or hacking by any means you can pm me at any time with any issues at all

Thank you I was hoping it was something like that.

It is my understanding that a level 30 in rare level 30 gear is equal to a level 80 in rare level 80 gear. (gear wise)

This battle has been the most fun I have had in wvw in a long time! I haven’t seen any sketchy business on any of the servers. (Doesn’t mean there isn’t any… but to not see any for myself yet is great!) Good clean battles and a total blast facing new servers with their new tactics. It is quite refreshing!

Thank you TC and SoR!

You need to wait to claim it if another guild had more members attacking it than you had. For a camp it’s about 2 minutes… not sure about a Keep.

Upgrades to towers and camps serve 1 primary purpose, and that is time delay. The better upgraded they are, the more time it gives your team to respond to and try and save. If you are on a low pop server or a server that doesn’t try and save camps or towers, then I can see what you are saying. Actually everything you say seems like maybe you are on a low pop server.. are you?

Score update again pls?

TY, Yeah, looks like a crazy fun match. Anyones game atm.

Jayne.9251:

Nope TC lifer and proud of it!

oh, ok

score update pot!

Jayne.9251:

Crazy crazy culling tonight in TCBL. But man what fights! lol .. first SBI, then SoR sneaking in behind them, then SBI, then SoR … over and over … was wondering why SoR kept running around inside for, it was quite odd seeing you guys hit the room, then run up the stairs, then down the stairs again, lol.

And Setch, I can pretty much guarantee if he wound up outside it was a complete accident, our folks don’t exploit .. and if they do we bash them over the head with a mallet.

Yeah, I am not saying that is what happened in this case since I am not there. And Jayne, aren’t you SBI? I know we don’t cheat :P

spartanx.1364:

Claimer at TC Gar has been bugged this entire time. Hes locked outside by the water gate…. Please give him a key to the door so we can kill him. Thanks,

I have seen enemy rangers exploit to make this happen. Anywho, you can kill him outside, no?

I think it’s important to note that Kaineng gained WM from SBI so that is the correlation between Kaineng now winning and SBI now losing.

edit: I would love to hear how WM likes Kaineng fulltime. I assumed they would miss SBI and was wondeing if they do or are happy with their move.

Indeed that does correlate nicely. Was WM a huge guild? And did they all transfer?

I am not sure of their exact numbers but they had more than 10 commanders if that tells you anything. So yea, they were pretty big. They were/ are? 3 guilds depending on the focus. IE PVE / PVP/ WVW (korean mainly) afaik.

- JQ has WON T1, vs HoD

That was AFTER titan alliance fell apart and everyone band wagoned to JQ. >_>

And what were some of the reasons that the TA fell apart? Here, I will list one of the numerous reasons. Drumroll please! Gasp Some of the members/leaders got banned for exploiting and hacking, i.e. orb hacking!

I have never once heard that before and I strongly doubt it is true as an original HoD member at that time. If a leader of TA had been banned for cheating it would have been all over guru.

Blackgate doesn’t need to be smart to be beat SoS, they just need the numbers. But they would need to be smart to beat JQ. My money is on JQ.

Or perhaps the strategy of SOS is so complex that you cannot see it?

There is a difference between local level tactics and overall grand strategy. You’re talking about local level tactic smart. If you, the enemy, could see how smart we were…..then how smart are we really?

Not that I’ve seen any amazing level of local tactics in Tier 1 at all, from any server including my own. But maybe it’s because I’m living it and don’t see how special Tier 1 is. I something think how advanced I would feel if I suddenly moved to a bottom tier server and compare our tactics with other servers.

SOS plays strategically to win. No matter how many spies, website hacks or anything, you cannot see the grand strategy. Infact, a few of our amazing strategists like Kurthos [Work], NexusMav [ATac], Coron [Tsym], and Amarathy [MERC] openly share SOS tactics with everyone on these forums. We let you know what we do and how we do it so that the level of play is constantly pushed to a new horizon.

We don’t worry about losing our tactical advantage it doesn’t touch on our core strategy.

I didn’t mean to imply that SoS doesn’t have tactics, they do. I was mainly trying to point out how crafty JQ is.

What does the center island temple of storm do exactly? I thought its the quaggan nodes that destroy the keep seige, not the center one. The temple of storm comes in 3 phases. When control by you, neutral and one control by hostiles. What does each phase do

3 side nodes = 1 center node afaik.
edit: to be clear I mean as far as lightning damage.

Believe what you wish…. There are plenty who would vouch for the accuracy of my claims.

I started wvw at level 2 on my ranger with a friend who was also starting a ranger. Once you get 2 pets (and are good a pet swapping) you are good to go.

Blackgate doesn’t need to be smart to be beat SoS, they just need the numbers. But they would need to be smart to beat JQ. My money is on JQ.

Rangers are good for soloing camps.

Oh, well siege has to expire or there would be a cluttered mess. You need to remind your server to refresh siege when you log out. A lot of people think the siege magically stays there when there are a handful of people running around making sure it stays refreshed.

Herr der Friedhoefe.2490:

I didn’t say the NPC breakout event causes material to go POOF, but I’m not sure why it has to go at all. We’ve been putting siege down because we’re in a very tight match and know the bad guys will use the breakout event. It is seriously annoying to run to save a tower just find that your material is gone.

Don’t get me wrong, I like these breakout events but why can’t we do a reasonable amount of work to prepare for them? The spy types will do what they do no matter what, so why does this have to affect us?

1 treb in the nearby castle focused on the tower at all times means it’s easy to take the tower back after the event as long as you watch for counter trebs and no where that counter location is.

OP Are you saying that the breakout commander causes siege to disappear? Or are you saying because the breakout commander places siege, your siege gets blown up? Or are you saying the timer needs to be longer than 30 minutes?
