Guild Wars 2

just curious, will it potentially be released in gem shop?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/archive/guilds/KnT-Knights-Of-The-Temple-Blackgate-WvW Funny, KnT’s own website doesnt list them as Oceanic.

I’ll have one of my minions change that ASAP

Good fights on JQBL tonight, our oceanic blob was way stronger than yours, but once SEA came along we lost too many players and you had FB to help, became a bit one sided XD

Either way, super happy that oceanic KnT can withstand forces like Ge/ATM! Hope you guys got plenty of bags from us tonight, cos we got heaps from you guys too XD

If we are playing for ppt , we will try to take hill and briar, have you find out after we take hill , we don’t even build a sigle AC or treb to defence it
we keep hit bay is cause BG are unwill to come out to play, everytime we meet, they just run in to tower or keep, so we only can knock BG’s door , but BG still prefect to stay behind AC.
Basic ATM don’t have any no good feeling about ZD come to BG, it give us a chance to fight EU guild, ZD are good , they are like the old MERC in BG that will fight us not hide in the tower, ND is good too, even sometime they have small number than us , will try to fight as well, just feel sorry to ZD that we can not stay that late to fight them all the time.
We just wish that ZD can enjoy their stay in BG, we don’t really know did they enjoy the fight during the week day or not, Maybe they don’t have much chance to PvD in EU server, so they might enjoy something different now, but we do know that PvD is boring, and it have risk to lose your Guild members as well.

Just because you want play a certain way doesn’t mean we all should.

We had so much fun defending bay against your omegas. It was really epic on our side of the story.

I feel like this complaint “you hide behind arrow carts” is thrown around too casually. If we know we are weaker in the open field, and you are not punishing us for staying inside bay (not hitting our other objectives), what else do you want us to do? Do you want us to come out and die so you take bay? No thanks, our guilds spent 20 hours upgrading it and running yaks, we will not simply let you take it because we want a fight.

We play for PPT. Fights will happen when you play for PPT. If you are solely looking for fights and not PPT, you should go check out that new GvG map.

We had 25 KnT + Pugs in JQBL. We had ND on BGBL. We had LP and TMD on SoS BL.

Your PPT was low because

1. ATM+Ge focused everything on getting bay. We held hills for most of the night and recapped it with 5 TRM players because of it.

2. During oceanic, you lost 2 waypoints. I hope I don’t need to explain anything further than this, if you don’t understand why losing waypoints means less PPT, then I don’t even want to explain it to you.

Last night was definitely a once off, not an indication of regular SEA. Usually KnT, being relatively new and mass recruited oceanics during first weeks of seasons, cannot even wipe 20 TKG players. But we will work on discipline after ensuring BG’s victory after seasons.

I feel bad for ATM + Ge. Sorry for hiding behind 10 ACs all the time in JQBL, but the blame is also on you. You really let us do this, never cut our supply line, only hit our paper hills once, and never touched briar tower. It was definitely an epic 4-5 hours, but I’ll be honest, you were never even close to taking the keep. You should reconsider your strategies next time, especially as you wiped us 3-4 times inside outer.

But I still firmly believe that the superior SEA timezone goes to you guys, and then SoR – Wiping constantly over and over is definitely not fun, with less guilded numbers and new, untrained players.

It feels like your NA gave up. Is oceanic/SEA going for one last push tonight I wonder…

I’ve isolated the problem it seems.

Every single time I open up the guild window with “G”, I can no longer talk in party, guild or whisper chat. Approximately 30 seconds later, I get the “The game is unable gain access to log-in server at this time. This is most commonly caused by firewall or router settings” etc etc.

I do not have a firewall on.

I did the -repair thing, still doesn’t work.

Any ideas?

Weird scenario which happens with one of my computers, but not the other.

There is no lag, and I am not getting disconnected ingame. However, my contact list will make me go offline then online, I lose my party and it re-appears, and I lose my guild tag then it reappears. This happens every few seconds-minutes.

Note: I do not disconnect from the game, in fact I don’t feel much lag at all ingame.

Any ideas?

Does anybody know if these skins (both from the first release and this one) will be obtainable in the future?

Overseas and haven’t really farmed SAB that much to get all the skins I wanted

Hi, I am more or less a “retired” commander from the US server Blackgate.

After discussing this with many current WvW players and commanders, most of which have agreed with a brief overview of what I am about to suggest, I decided to make a formal forum post to gauge a more generalised population

So here goes.

From my viewpoint, ArenaNet should make WvW 3 day matches. The rest of the week should not have any PPT, but still allow WvW to be open for those wanting to enter.

Whilst I do understand that WvW was advertised as a never-ending mist war, many people are realising a somewhat decline in WvW population, and guilds. I believe 3 day matches will be very beneficial for populatiton.

Advantages:

• Half of the week to revise strategy for more hardcore guilds. Currently, there is very little time to review meta, as coverage means all too much. I can’t stress how important it is for competitive players to review how they play . Viewing replays, discussing current meta, and trying out new tactics, where there are no consequences – this is what can drastically improve meta and skill.
• Currently, “tier 1” servers in US and EU are considerably stronger than “tier 2”. If we restrict the hours of competition, the queue times should be able to slowly dissolve these over-stacked servers (such as my own, I am not trying to QQ about SoR or anything in this post).
• Ever played a competitive game where you win because of a “huge play” that you did? In WvW, nothing seems to factor into the final score other than how many hours you put into WvW as a server. By making the matches shorter, it rewards player skill considerably more, allowing the tiers to be ranked by skill, not by coverage.
• Players want to play with people and against people their own skill level. As the final WvW scores are less affected by coverage, meaning the matchups become assorted by skill level, I believe it will be more fun for the WvW community overall.
• GvG’s, practicing strategy, TC’s Dolyak parades, 1v1’s and general fun can still be had in the other 4 days, on the maps. The PPT just does not affect the score.
• Enticing players by rewarding skill, in my opinion, is a better tool than enticing players by rewarding loot, even in an MMO like Guild Wars 2. ArenaNet seems very keen on the aspect of loots, and if they implement something like this, I think more players will be keen on WvW.

If there is anything that I may have missed, please suggest it and I will add to this list.

Disadvantages (those that were brought to my attention by friends who I have explained this thought to)

• Players who cannot play on these days. Potential solution – make the 3 days rotate (Week1: Sun.Mon.Tues., Week2: Mon.Tues.Wed., Week3: Tues.Wed.Thurs., etc).
• Massive queue times. Potential solution – Allow for cheap or free transfers to lower tier WvW servers from higher tier.
• Hardcore everyday WvW guilds lose their “purpose” – The current meta is the zerg meta. I whole-heartedly believe with sufficient time to practice, train, review strategy, that we can stray from this meta without any balance patches to nerf it. These guilds should automatically use the break wisely, build up siege, train up new commanders, train discipline, et cetera.

If there are any other concerns I will try to suggest potential solutions.

The current WvW 7 days a week is getting stale, and I want change. I don’t know if changes like these will bring them back, or bring new population in, but I can hope.

SoR completely and utterly demoralised in the SEA time zone. Looks like Waha succeeded. So when are you guys falling apart?

Figured out a glitch to get into jerrifers yesterday, really easily replicatable. Nothing difficult. Wondering how to report to developers for easy fix? This tower is actually important tower in EBG and I think this needs to be fixed ASAP.

“he who wins SEA wins the Tier”

I’m new to these forums…

Anyways TW, we’ve been holding out on you guys. We’ve been flipping stuff, map hopping, farming poor JQ pugs in EBG haha.

Lets have some good fights soon! (maybe next week, once I’m done with this disgusting thing called studies!!)

they aren’t cheating Shift.
DUH.

There we go. Issue resolved.

As soon as Arenanet fixes the portal stuff so that it can’t be made through walls of towers and keeps again I will gladly come back here and explain how we did it.

So by your own admission you didn’t have a mes inside the hills. You ported thru the walls? Thanks bro. Glad someone on DiE is fessing up to using exploits and not pretending to hide inside while 6 people watched.

I think you misunderstood…………

no I understand perfectly…………… they weren’t inside. there is no way a mes got past 6 people standing watch without someone seeing a glimpse of them……………..

as far as I’m concerned the issue is over. Everyone knows DiE now.. and will be watching for them and their behavior. No further discussion is needed as the Mod’s will be closing the thread down soon probably.

“West Borderlands Stationed Commander”

Nono, I assure you, you misunderstood him. Your madness is clouding your intellect in comprehending his meaning. Your anger is being channeled through your passive-aggressive posts. Your frustration will, however, linger, like that faint taste of blood from biting on your lip, just a little too hard because somebody on the internet made you sad

I completely understand you bro.

A strategy so clever that nobody can figure it out.

A strategy so effective it causes so much rage and automatic assumption of “Exploit/FlyHack”.

Sounds like it COULD be a brilliant idea

Seeing as there is no LFG, alternatives (such as the ability to morph a “guild” into a method for LFG) should be made viable.

Agreed.

Achievements should be something more players focus on, rather than an incidental “here have some achievement points for completing this”. The listed changes above seem well thought out
