Guild Wars 2

Dancing in WvW, SMH

Less Zerker sets, something I can stand behind.

I see a whole lot of crying in this thread and nothing more. Some of you people really need to wake up and smell the roses. The majority of you probably think you’ve got WvW figured out, but its quite obvious you dont have a clue.

Speaking for IoJ, I find it pretty kitten sad that you cannot funcition or operate without a commander in the zone. As soon as nomnom logged off for class yesterday, we lost DB and Garrison with almost NO BODIES there to defend it. DB was extra pathetic, as people were trying to retake Garrison instead of defending DB at all, those people at DB were just as useless. When you call for the defense of a keep, you have to actually do more than sit on the kitten walls and AOE the enemies. Do most of you not understand whats going on? Your aoes will not do anything to them, especially if they have more. People dont even have the intelligence, or courage, to drop down the side of the keep and start baiting and clearing the enemies that are coming. The majority of you opt to stand there and do nothing instead of actually trying to defend it, its really pathetic.

Over all, from IoJ at least, I think we do alright for the most part. But a lot of people are very afraid to die, or even fight. People dont even WvW unless there is a commander out, and I feel there is no excuse.

Stop trying to make WvW rocket science, attack, defend, kill people.

the true test will be this evening, last night wvw was picking up. now that people are finishing the lame halloween event, maybe we’ll actually put up a fight till Friday, would be nice to see.

I’ll tip my hat to SoS as well. I’ve only been on IoJ for a week, but compared to what I saw last week vs JQ, SoS overall has much more advanced tactics. I can easily recall PRX stomping on many peoples faces Friday night, and still going on today.

They seem to use a lot of strategy I came accustomed to in Warhammer, the most simple being the bomb. I’ve seen them quite a few times hide behind keep walls, and then suddenly all rush the door invis, bombing everyone on the rams and anyone near the gate, killing them instantly. You see variations of this with mesmer portals as well. This is something I’ve yet to see anyone apply on this server in my short time. The majority of players are afraid to even enter a mesmer portal. I see no group invis bombs going on. I would guess if people were fighting and assisting more often than not, some of these keep assaults, like the one on Garrison last night, could have been much better.

The second reason I think we are losing has to do with the numbers of SoS. Seems to be much higher than what we have, not always, but most of the time. HoD also gave up instantly in this match up. I see almost no presence from them at any point during this entire weekend. I really think that having an entire server be more or less useless is really whats hurting us, if the other server was there making any kind of presence felt, I feel like that alone would give us more opportunity to overcome the 3 orbs and the beat down we’ve received thus far.

I transfered from Sorrows Furnace to IoJ to see some better WvW, even though we’re getting whopped, overall I am very impressed with the skill level of the servers in WvW. Good work SoS, IoJ, but not HoD, you get no love.

4. 20/20/0/25/5.

I run that now but I opted to take ten points into the third tree so I could get 3% dmg reduction per illusion out. Thought it would help keep me alive longer, will have to play with the other builds and come back to comment.

Thanks man

Hello, I just hit 80 and was wondering what some of you all are using for builds. in WvW. A lot of people seem to go full kitten spec, just focusing on crit dmg precisions power, no vit or toughness at all.

I was wondering what people have been using that isnt so much kitten spec. Something that will play better with Crit Tougness Vit Power.

For what its worth, I use GS / Swrd focus. Seems pretty standard.

Anyways, just looking for build Ideas. Would much rather be tanky and have a build fit to play around that than to just kitten kids down as fast as possible.

Thanks for any feedback.

I’d be interested in this as well. Part of the guild TEST. Have about 4-5 people that play almost everynight. Lambs/ Q Q Machine in game or Solomon7532.

What would you suggest then Cpt?

For the most part since I’ve started playing I’ve been using a 30/30 10 build, where i focus on grenades, my rifle, and getting speedy kits to zip around. I find this build to be very average in random sPVP games, damage can be really fast, can get owned really fast.

I am starting to not like grenades as much, as leading shots, timing shots, just hitting people constantly in general is proving to be quite a pain. Was considering a swap back to bombs, would feel safer with the smoke bomb and my rifle shots.

But really, I’m just a scrub, I dont know what people are doing in sPVP. not so much pub games, but tourney games.

Would rifle just not be a good considered build for sPVP advance play? I’ve seen one other build I thought was interesting, used pistol and a shield, bombs, and thats all I noticed. Was insanely hard to kill this person, but other than that, he was more annoying than troublesome. Possibly a good build for defending points?

Lots of questions little answers, thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this mess.

My father (Sorvo) created a post on the Players Awaiting Help [merged] forum on Wednesday of this week, but the forums have deleted all post older than 2 days even though the issues are not resolved… Anyway, A friend is helping me post my problem onto this forum. Hopefully this is the better place for it since my ticket is past 72 hours with no resolution. I have tried to follow the instructions provided on the web sites etc, and am hopping that this post will help get things sped up a bit. I cannot predict the future 100% accurately, but If I have to miss my guilds world pvp night tonight (which I set up) I’m pretty sure my head will explode and brain chunks will be splattered all over the room. And since my wife will be working and I own a Great Dane; I may be eaten entirely and my wife will have no clue as to what happened. I could go on, but I’m sure you understand the complications that can arise from this situation here… I have already lost years of my life, and a few chunks of hair by watching my guild’s pvp videos and being upset that I cannot partake. Since I was at Dragon con this weekend, its been since last Thursday with no game! HELP ME!
