What kind a trap build is it?

Posted by: SkyChef.5432

SkyChef.5432

We kinda saw him before he stealth. I was just surprised that he didn’t show up to finish our companion. I would.
I would look for him next time to see how a trap build could fight.

Well he either decided it’s best to get the hell out of there since he just blew all of his cooldowns, or he decided you all must be extremely new since 2 of you went down so easily to 1 condi bomb and he decided to be merciful.

Sure there is always 1st time for everything, including you. Read my sig to see if it applies to you. It must.

PS: I doubt you would understand its meaning & where it comes from. It doesn’t mean I’m saying you are stupid & assume too much w/ limited info provided, though.

Anet has a long lists of explanation of bugs varied depending on the mood of the server. If you remove those explained cards layers to layers, the final message is “We have a bug and we have no clue what it is.”

The only way to win any argument w/ Anet is to vote w/ your feet. Or your purse/wallet whatever. Or you are destined to be angry and disappointed.
I really don’t care if they change any days, any time or even if they close this game. I stopped paying to Anet for a long time. And this from a person who had paid 2 original accounts w/ bells & whistles plus another account to play w/ friends in another server.
No more.
Disclosure: I’ve paid far more $ into CU than to Anet. And CU isn’t around yet for another year.

Maybe one of the reasons is that mini patches they deploy at the end of day friday, won’t interrupt reset night like they do almost every friday night now.

Please don’t give them any idea to make a good excuse. They don’t have one to start with and will read the forums for some saving face ideas.

Thinking about transfer to T2 ?

HI CHABA

If you say warchests didn’t gut the lower tiers and especially IoJ then I believe you.

Can we agree that YB are the golden boys of WvW and they didn’t destroy T2, it was all these people moving in and then out?

Look, I don’t know the reason why WOLF suddenly disbanded and Mexay moved to T1 with a few others. It’s probably the same reason as it is for most players; they leave because they’re not having fun. If more people go to watch Ant-man than they do Pixels, it isn’t because Ant-man had a higher budget. And lower tier servers also have warchests btw.

Not all of them. In my 3 years w/ eBay, I haven’t seen one yet even we have discussed in length of what a war chest could do. I can’t say much about other servers.

There’s a block function.

No, the concern here is Anet takes mass reports as an evidence of hacks.

I doubt this. How many times have you had your entire server report (real) hackers? Yet nothing is ever done to them.

Hah. You do follow our (real) hacker story eh? I was the one working w/ a DH player trying to video recording that (real) one.
We have the entire episode on our website w/ many respectable individuals on those 2 raids, it’s an accusation w/o evidences. He got banned. We also have the name of the accusing player and he has that habit like Coglin and the likes, too serious of their knowledge.
I have none charity left for Anet & their “enthusiasts” so w/ 50% chance I’m wrong. I still take it.

Concerns with Population Calculation

in WvW

Posted by: SkyChef.5432

SkyChef.5432


Yeah I know, I am just taking this from a ratings perspective. I thought it was interesting that Ehmry Bay went to Medium eventhough their rating has increased over the past 3 weeks. Might hint at some of the parameters that go into population calculation.

My bad. AFAIK, there are certain parameters I can deduce that Anet has from normal WvW activities such as player queue per bl per period, the number of players of that home world, the rate of change of WvW queue and rate of change of home world population. That would give an average snapshot of that home world WvW population and after certain periods, the average will converge.
With that in mind, rating probably wouldn’t be a factor in calculation of population but rather results of combining of certain factors such as other servers refrained from ppt to keep the tier stable, quality of players etc. (I’m pretty sure NSP & HoD could blob the ppt hell out of us if they wanted to)
That’s just my speculation of their method to calculate the WvW population.

If your friends at YB said YB “seems” active, they really didn’t play WvW very actively. YB is always active in the last 10 mos, afaik.
Our EBAY player has implemented this website to show the coverage of every servers in any time zone. We’re active from NA to OCX. Besides those time zones, we always welcome opposing server PvDs w/ open arm.

Nerfs Rangers could tolerate

in Ranger

Posted by: SkyChef.5432

SkyChef.5432

Rather then nerf Rangers, they could fix the 1800 LB range bug and see where that takes us from there.

My issue fighting Rangers on other classes is the pets commonly chosen. The Wolf is in all reality, the biggest “l2p” thing I’ve ever been smacked with. But nerfing this would kitten Ranger. The issue is you have to dodge its knockdown and the Ranger’s knockback. Or you eat a whole RF.

That brings me to PBS, it is incredibly hard to dodge. Its being used as a offensive CC. The wind up animation is there now, but its too fast. Slowing this down, or adding adding a flashy particle effect (The Ranger flashes purple fire on the shot or something, purple looks nice with green.) anything of that nature would help. (Pin Down needs the same treatment, although I seem to avoid this more then PBS)

Just my two cents.

+1e6.
It also has a low CD. Smart ranger knows how to use this w/ hunter shot to reposition and pewpew you all day long.

Guild Bank bugged

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: SkyChef.5432

SkyChef.5432


I created our guild. All 4 members are on the same server. None of us ever moved servers. The other three (one of which has full leader privileges) have access, I don’t.

I’m pretty sure that you cannot access the bank if you’re the one who created the guild.

I’m pretty sure this is the case because it also happens to me, the creator of my guild bank. They did fix the Golem Bank w/ this patch so there isn’t anything to do, besides making another feature to fix for the next patch.
Job security is always our main concern, is it not?

I am the creator of my personal Guild, and I can access that vault. I am Leader, but not creator of another Guild, and can not access that vault. So, it does not seem to be who created which Guild.

Neglect to say, I’m also the leader of the said guild.
For debugging assistance, can you guys list something like this, or revise your statement to reflect it:

A) Creator of guild bank: Yes/No
B) Leader of guild: Yes/No
C) More than 1 member: Yes/No
D) Any of your member can access: Yes/No
My case can’t access guild bank: A) Yes. Yes. C) Yes. D) Yes

Incapable or Unwilling

in WvW

Posted by: SkyChef.5432

SkyChef.5432

Both incapable and unwilling.

Incapable is due to the design choice to have client side handling the data calculation. Any band-aid fixes are only to delay the hacks for a couple days. Can’t fix it unless they replace w/ better engine which makes absolutely no-sense for an out dated product on the down slope of its existence.
Unwilling because hackers don’t compete w/ Anet’s treasure department like botters, so it makes no business sense to pour resources into things w/ no return. They don’t even have any option to report hackers even though hackers and their techniques were around since day 1 and is no secret to any one wanted to find out. (Implying it’s not important to warrant a change in a report option).

He basically said 98% of GM activities is clearing bot implying their presents in WvW is close to zero because bot isn’t that dumb to collect resources or doing map completion in WvW. The remaining time is to responding to reports including but not limited to investigate and collect data to see whether the report has any merit to pursue further. So if you hope they can pop right there to instantly witness the hacking process, keep going to church on Sunday. I think that works out much better than sending videos & what not to exploits address.
