What you talking about FA had a megahuge grp in ebg and cd bl earlier I fought both ebg ones and in cd bl ones…[DIE] was in cd bl they were big…and in ebg you had a guild grp frontlining your megablob of your own tonight.
Plus off hours you got GK and I think BB…that ive seen…
If anyone has a right to complain in this matchup its CD since they got literally no offhours at all…and both FA and ourselves on the HoD link in their bl nonstop capping and fighting.
I don’t see Kasumei or CD in here saying thus.
When Rawr from CD was having to deal with 2-3 guilds grps of the HoD link in their home bl and yous had BEEP and DIE from FA in their bl also at pts.
End of story, FA has plenty of coverage in this matchup yous were leading skirmishes until HoD link woke up again.
I heard HoD lost about 4guilds recently…building up a NA grp to compensate? yous only had Fate left on NA for HoD from what I remember being paired with yous in the passed.
You can WvW roam/havoc with us if your in the CD link WvW.
Am in game most nights if you want to chat about it.
Cheers
You can roam with us in WvW if you want we run 5-10 tho on a different server.
Can chat with me in game one night this week if you want.
cheers
Whats your server?
Since your on CD and in same link Chris come roam/blob and chat with us in WvW teamspeak, the core am with will mentor you for WvW and we are pretty knowledgeable on pve aspects also.
I’ll add both of yous in game, see yous tomor sunday.
Also FYI your aloud to join 5 guilds so you can always have one pve, one pvp and one wvw guild each for example in time if you don’t find the all in one:P
Cheers
Just wondering if others feel like next weeks elite spec demo in wvw (/pvp) is gonna be so messed up with humongeous queues with most of the population of the game trying to get in and not figuring out they should just go to eotm to try the new specs.
Am pretty sure just like when the pip system got implemented queues will reach 100+ on about each map for the whole weekend.
What about yous?
WvW skill lag mate…can only spam skill 1 as I mentioned in big fights nowadays…whats the use of the buffs on the other skills if your reduced to only being able to use skill 1…ankitten ot even in T1 but in T4 and we get that often on evenings in ebg when the blobs come out to play.
The range distance was never an issue been playing guard since late 2013 ish.
Also when am in the enemies face you usually are on your melee rotation(greatsword/hammer in my case) not on staff unless your just running over the opposition.
The principal of the matter the new range makes it more a melee weapon when its more of a midline weapon for guard, all the skills 2-5 from staff are in situations where you have some distance to work with…range of them is mostly 1200 or 600 so yeah skill 1 should have stayed at 600.
And I never said I disliked in original post the add-ons for the other skills.
Was gonna get the expac up until today’s update, but I play guard about 50% of my time in WvW as a support meat shield, between the war(roaming)/guard changes minor as it seems to many, to me mostly WvWing its…anyways.
The comment about hitting threw walls and gates been like that for many skills on many professions since WvW launched…never seen much complaints about staff 1 in WvW playing…
Isn’t guard staff a midrange weapon so the 600 range was already right in the middle of 0-1200 well 0-1500 now.
Does almost no damage anyways.
I’ve been testing the diff. between 300 to 600 and it shows…have to be right up to enemies to hit at that point.
Never heard anyone complain about the range of the guard staff except people referring it to the “lootstick”.
Longbow/Scepter (range over 900 ) doesn’t support a party as well as staff at all and for WvW melee squad pushing fights…staff over longbow/scepter for many guardians.
A lot of skills on swords, hammer, etc have more range then the staff 1 now.
A lot of us have always picked staff as secondary weapon because:
Since WvW lag seems to be rampant even in 30vs30 nowadays….when only the skill 1 on weapons actually pops…we rely on staff to get us true…thus reducing the staff range is a detrimental change.
There isn’t or was a need to reduce the range.
Be appreciated if we could go back to what it was thank you.

(p.s.: I saw the other WvW forum topic on guard staff but figured saying the question on the mind of all us staff guardian protectors of commanders to anet; gets us a positive response, view from anet staff.)
Like many I don’t feel gliding is appropriate for WvW when improving issues that date back years are more important to us; lag being the top runner.
Am worried that in desert bl and ebg you’ll be able to glide into fortifications…
Take for example the cliff facing red keep in EBG, wouldn’t grps be able to glide pass first wall? and from SMC to Klovan maybe…long shot….
Anyways I don’t approve of this change but the armor stat swapping update change is a good plus.
(and I can see the value of gliding in desert bl with all the elevations but still…)
Reposted in this one with same msg because its on TC:
And yet last night in red bl (TCs bl), they had a grp of 30+ and the map was all blue except their garry…when we had only 2 roaming guild tags on map with militia following both…TC seems to not know what to hit to maximize ppt it felt…in any case TC has horrible off hour coverage but yous aren’t dead…am in the CD link and Ive seen huge TC grps around…its just that the T3 dropouts have more offhour…cough sos cough hod cough db…cough….
Sorry I know its not completely relevant to WvW TC closed server…but your link doesn’t seem to manage its WvW pop well in game at times like above…

What you talking about SkyShroud…when we were in a matchup against you…NA mornings 8-12 yous with time guild + militia + air were pretty much running 30-40 maybe even more…so you should be fine to handle the db morning hordes for 1 map at least…
Server population issues… since 2012.
Shrug…Anet just needs to keep tabs and manually keep a server from dropping if tanking one week and roller-coasting much higher then the server that went up the previous week.
You sure it isn’t September?…its every 2 months….
Men everyone is all over the place in the official WvW forums…so let me get some over the place stuff out also:
Anet saw the complaints about afking for pips and participation….and tried decay for them…
When people have always akitten in the first place even before pips and participation…"I"afk in WvW after running raids of 1-20hrs…to go washroom, do a few chores, etc. to get back my mojo back for more WvW.
Commanders and squads used to take 5 min break…
Etc.
Never seen that many pip afkers in the first place, queues now aren’t as bad even during prime for t3-4 links so…
Mostly you killed 2 WvW aspects for me with the complaints to do something…leading to decay.
I can’t have days of just thief spamming swords all over the place…yes and yes still can as people would say but I like getting my rewards as well as enjoying the best gamemode of gw2.
I can’t have days of just defending a tower in the middle of blob land and just recapping the nearest camp from time to time with decay.
Pretty much sums up what has been lost in my regards.
As for zerging decay doesn’t affect at all and for normal roaming neither.
Only exception is when all maps have a lot of RIs or all your color that decay becomes an issue at times.
I still think the outnumbered change is all that was needed***
Would people stop with this discussion…linked servers are pretty much a roaming population servers except on resets and they wouldn’t be able to revert to being alone again.
Am in one of them and except for NA prime it would be pretty much dead. Linking killed a lot of the population and guilds of said linked servers but its to late to revert back again.
I don’t want to find myself alone during off hours since I don’t want to just roam in WvW but a balance of all aspects.
The queues have pretty much died out even in ebg except NA prime weekends for the link am in. Our link feels on life support these days if not for Kasumi’s rallies and stuff.
In the end for the one reason, I’d like to revert back to single servers so I can recruit more easily peps and geps but the above just makes it impossible to revert.
Its something to do along the way to another tower camp or sentry at times shrug.
That’s not balancing that’s just breaking wvw even more…theres enough condis in WvW as it is…uncleansable condies you serious?…cascading conditions…have you ever been hit yet with 10 stacks of bleed its not peanuts you know and you want to increase the stacks….when you fight large grps this will be instant killers before you can even cleanse the condi stacks seeing as the stacks of all types can go well over 10. Plus you add uncleansable to your mix that you want perma-death…100% gamemode broke…
Why a post like this when already most of the wvw player base is running bunkerish condi….too much of it…
If you add the 2 above condi suggestions….only playable class in wvw will be necro where ev1 just transfers back the conditions to each other like somekind of desease.
Anyways this isn’t balance. Balance is lowering the condi caps…so the reversal of this post sorry.
Am in the CD link and like Spell said even us saw Mag owning FA’s ebg keep for a few minutes…before reshifting red…I saw another bug on the desert bl where it said green even tho our side had capped it until I claimed it, it then turned blue.
I was hoping for a tier 5 added on this relink…instead same thing 3 links just AR now with us…I don’t mind our link since I made some good roaming buddies from the host link server but why pair us up with mag and fa…both steamed rolled us in previous matchups…with same link ioj for at back then.
Many where saying…ah these 2 t1.5 servers gain together in our matchup time to play other games for the week.
Ebg was horrible, glad moving to a bl for roaming turned out a lot better at least.
Seems we aren’t the only ones unhappy with the new links/matchup this week…seeing the dh/db post above.
Anyways just my thoughts on relinks/matchup sigh.
Am in same link side at moment and never had any problems with being spawn camped in this matchup.
Anyways.
