Guild Wars 2

It shouldn’t be your first class to try out in wvw. Once you learn how the game mechanics work on another character Ranger is a much smoother ride…and glass cannon rangers are the easiest kills in the game, get some toughness.

Might just be guardian, but the sword looks silly… sits too far down on the hip, and when running with sword in hand, it looks like you’re palming the pommel…pics below

Checked a couple other cheap swords from TP, same result…checked my Human Warrior and Syvlari Ranger, they look just fine.

Does this kind of stuff ever get fixed? sword/shield is my favorite to use for looks, but this ruins it for me…

Strang.8170:

Might be because i tend to only pay attention to giant glowing red name above the characters.

Yeah, no race has an advantage.

It’s just Sunnyhill, we had 3 golems on it and nothing…but we took every other gate down on the map. We had to use rams to kill sunnyhill gate, I do not recall auto attacks being ineffective…not ranged at least

fivekiller.1432:

Allow me to kick offline group members.

Why is this so hard for them to implement?

Stealth thieves. They do no significant dmg, but they stealth and heal so they never die…all they do is distract you, so I just walk away from them…this has happened to me so many times.

Thieves prey on glass cannons or underlevels, the best thief I’ve seen is a tanky evasive S/P thief. If you have full berserkers you’re a snack for Thieves…get some toughness

What class am I afraid of the most 1v1? Mesmer

Same thing happened to me twice today, never before…I closed the client and re opened, a few hours later it happened again

When our alliance agreed to take up the EB map, I don’t think the leaders knew we were applying for a part time job. As a guild, WAR spent more time in EB last week then we have combined from the other matches

I’m sorry if you guys feel you got jipped, we did our best in EB but we only played 1-2 hours per night. I at least didn’t know we had agreed to more then that

Lol, we finally lose Stonemist, Fergs attack north gate with and 2 golems, DR attacks south gate with 6 golems…we held them off in the lords room for about an hour even though the lag wouldn’t let us use any skills

Easily over 100 players in that Lords room…unfortunately only like 20-30 were Kaineng

You fergs better not let those DR scum get it!

Are you saying all thieves should stop using invisibility? they cant control the rendering glitch, lol.

NullMad.4370:

Actually Splitrr you can’t get exotic weapons that ares Power/Toughness/Vitality with badges or karma. You can only get them in dungeons or for gold. Why they didn’t make token set for every stat combination is a little beyond me. I think they consider wvwvw a chunk of pve and so they think pure wvwvwers don’t exist.

??? You can indeed get them with WvW badges, half of my weapons are P/V/T invader weapons, I was not aware you could buy P/V/T on the trading post but I never checked tbh

Wrong. Level 80 Exotic gear can be purchased many ways, Karma for the Temples in Orr, Invader Badges in WvW, Dungeon tokens, using gold for the Trading Post

They made it very easy to get 80 exotic gear if you know your way around the game

What’s PvE? oh, you mean that zone that helps you gear up for WvW? pfft.

cross server drama strengthens inner guild bonds

If you log out while in the downed state, you still have to waypoint somewhere to revive yourself…which is about the same as repair cost, so that’s not the reason they do it

it’s just an unsportmanlike dick-move…or they are ignorant, thinking they save money doing so

Anyone that does this is hurting their team more than the enemy, by taking a player off the field for a good 5 minutes…I lol when someone does it, their loss

Nice assault on DB with the 3 cats on outer SE wall, 2 trebs inner wall, I thought we were kittened but we barely held in the lords room…I can only imagine the whole zerg did not cooperate, because I saw like 20 DR still at the trebs when you guys slowly got wiped in(next to) the lords room…it could have turned out a lot worse for us

We barely mustered a defense, we called all guild groups from 2 other borderlands to defend this, lol.

PS: I logged out already, and I’m sure the assault is regrouped and continued, so we may still lose

I cant believe this all got started because someone doesn’t understand game mechanics and calls it hacking…this is gold!

WAR as a majority took a break from WvW for the past week, this is our first night back in as a guild…we put about 40 players in the WvW arena tonight, so that might be the difference you’re noticing

In case you guys took me seriously, Kaineng has never worked together with ferg OR ANY OTHER SERVER EVER. I’ve been here from Day 1, so trust me

I was trying to be funny, but if you haven’t been in our bracket for more than a week I guess it isn’t funny

It’s purely coincidental if it looks like 2 teams are working together, those pics were just a one time occurrence when we are making no headway on inner gate, we see DR on the outer gate not aware we took the water gate down…so we all run to defend the gate for fun, LOL.

PS: DR has also never worked together with ferg/borlis/nsp/green team either. Fact: Our bracket has been server-alliance free since launch

(Kaineng is defending Fergs keep from DR)

meanwhile, at the inner gate…

OMG, blatant kaineng/ferg alliance to dominate Devonas! conspiracy!

pics below for proof!111!

1 key used, 40 gold item

So you’re saying whoever supports spawn camping also supports cheating, exploiting, and unsportsmanlike play…K

SniffyCube.6107:

and xir I didn’t message you guys, but as soon as you took our borderlands while we were in EB trying to take stonemist I had 4-7 people including delarme feralblood and many others messaging me things like “owned” “noob”
“that’s my keep you can’t take it”

Wait what? I have not whispered you once in like 2 weeks

Try this – every person that uses the portal subtracts 1 second from the time it stays deployed

We were messing around when we said SoS was king of kaineng. And no SoS member I have seen has done any chest thumping, Chaster seems like a pretty cool guy too

We saw people bashing on Chaster and SoS while ingame for no reason(and cluttering our teams comms)so we started saying stuff like “chaster is #1” and etc to peeve them off.

No need to get upset at SoS because they are more distinguished as a guild, such pride is looked down upon around here.

But hey, it’s good to see the Kowabungah guild growing and committing more and more into WvW these days

Teulux.6732:

Mighteous.9281:

Stuff

I won’t get into a political debate on a forum with a random person on the internet but trying to compare the losing team of a online video game with the lowest income people in The US is comical to say the least.

Fubuki.7162:

Don’t get sucked in. There are two types of people on Kaineng: Those that have Mighteous on ignore, and those who haven’t bought the game yet.

Oh yes it is the first time we have broken 100k by far.

Thanks to SoS, WAR, iSpy, JAWA, and RMA for switching servers last week and making a massive difference in WvW.

This Friday night we should be Blue team for the first time.

Caravan guards should be default. Upgrade allows them to tank all damage given to the Dolyak, forcing players to kill the guards first…it’s a start anyway, lol.

Zerg is everything, basically it just escalates

Level 1 – who has the biggest zerg wins
Level 2 – which zerg has a better leader(knows where to go and doesn’t waste time)
Level 3 – which zerg responds to commanders orders faster and more efficiently
Level 4 – which zerg has a solid group of players leading the charge and breaking through enemy zergs

I’m just messing around, threw that together in 30 seconds…some truth in it I guess

It was hilarious, for the entire duration of WvW since game launch I never saw these invisible character models, even in 30v30 battles(never really seen larger) that everyone had been mentioning, and I play like 4 hours daily

Then, it patches, we log back into WvW, go defend garrison, 15v15 and WE CANT SEE kitten CAPTAIN

The Keeps wont defend themselves. Those upgrades are meant to bolster your defense, not make it impenetrable.

It’s already easy to defend a fully upgraded keep/tower with well placed ACs and a Cata

IV Endu.8920:

Splintrr, I see what you’re getting at but you’re thinking small scale. BF2’s system is fine because it has no more than 64 on a team?

It’s not small scale because we can have what, 5-6 commanders per zone? it can work. Besides, I don’t want to organize the entire server, I want to start by helping guilds and alliances smoothly operate, to me that’s what this game is about, that’s how I have fun…and it would be even funner if we didn’t spend 25 minutes every night getting parties and team leaders set up.

Quoting shadowx, “Your proposed system is flawed because it puts the power in the hands of people, and people as a whole are dumb.”

That’s basically my problem with it, it’s almost a lottery system, you might have your best leaders forced into zergling spots because they weren’t famous enough or whatever…

But seriously, they must be making some changes to all this in the future…if they leave the features(minus all the glitches and bugs) as is I’d say they don’t even know how to make a game right.

We just need some simple changes and additions, you will never stop dumb people from being Commanders, so lets try to help the ones that are actually doing work and organizing their team

My ideas -

1. add Party leaders, with a mini blue star on the map in place of the dot(only party mates can see this) maybe they can place orders of their own, optional

2. Commanders squad reworked, instead of a big party make it so Commanders can invite 5-6 Party leaders into his squad, the party leaders in the squad can see each other on the map and each leader has a number or color

This should help a lot for organizing guilds and alliances. Just a simple start is all we need. Look at Battlefield 2, that’s the command system we need

Like the idea, but I think that would be too much work, we just need some simple changes and additions

Pro tip: Evasive thieves are the best tanks in the game.

No, just make the commander purchasable with 1000 badges or 100 gold. Anyone who has played enough WvW to EARN the Commanders title easily has 1k badges, unless they are using them on full invader gear(which is silly unless you’re a warrior/guardian tank)

Right now a person who has just done pve to 80 and done a ton of dungeons or Trading post manipulation can enter WvW for the first time and have the commander title.

Make them earn it, not pay for it.

No need to rage at Borlis for the acts of 1 person. This is the first time I’m aware of anything getting “hacked” in Kaineng/Devona bracket, so lets hope it doesn’t happen again and be thankful it has never happened before.

We just took Dreaming Bay with our kitten Train, started led by Commander Ranger Danger, The Derek Anderson, The Herm, me, and a few guys from the Evermoor Alliance. We picked up about 25 people by calling in map chat and took camps and towers and etheron, about 2 hours later we’re all about to call it a night and we say “hey, lets suicide our zerg on Dreaming Bay before we log”

Let me explain something for Kaineng, we NEVER have Dreaming Bay, it is literally a dream for us. We must spend 3-4 hours daily with coordination and planning between multiple guilds during prime time and fail to take it every time. It’s fully upgraded if you didn’t guess.

So it’s 3am, barely past prime time(kaineng prime time is 7pm-2am EST) and we gather at citadel, we have about 20 + our 7 guys since we lost a few, we go down and take Arrahs for supplies, and we maneuver our zerg into the NorthWest gate, we drop down 2 rams and crush the cannons/oil quickly with coordination, we call out to everyone several times to RUSH STRAIGHT INTO THE WATER and to the inner north gate, these randoms somehow execute it perfectly with no deaths, we build FIVE rams on the inner gate, we drop it quickitteno say the least, rush through, take the keep.

TLDR; A keep we never take with our best and sneakiest plans and most coordination, we just took with a leisurely late night zerg we on Kaineng call “The kitten Train”

I’m a terrible story teller so maybe someone else can add on.

I get 50-100 badges a day, its RNG guys dw about it

DR’s nature walk pic below – what were you guys doing?

I play support guardian, tons of kills and loot bags, I’m tired of seeing guardian threads so I’ll just say this – if you’re sitting in the back waiting on cooldowns you’re not doing it right, frontline hammer/scepter-shield guardian here, plenty of rewards.

No way, I love diving into 20 enemies for that 1 loot bag, also seeing 15 loot bags piled up is a big morale buff.

No sarcasm, the feature adds some fun times

Hilarious, I payed $1300 to build a PC from scratch, and I can play Battlefield 3 on Ultra flawlessly. Needless to say, this game is no problem except in massive WvW fights

Someones either a troll or a sucker.

I’ve seen it done on my server, they were quickittenaken out by a Ballista directly below the cliff, like 3 meters out. It just shot straight up and wrecked them.

quickly* taken* out*

Since when does it give PvE world the buff? I had no idea

So about 40 minutes ago we lost Overlook(our borderlands garrison/keep)

We held it since reset, so about 7 hours. Nice job guys! a fair lead on DR, we’ll see how it is in the morning.

A pretty fair start of the week, we’ve held our EB Keep since the game started, and are fairly ahead of DR in score.

Still holding our territory in EB now.

Spam F. I never have a problem getting them, melee guardian

I’m not the type that can wait very well – Planetside 2.
