Guild Wars 2

Why do you all have so much fun in zerg fights? Seriously, I don’t understand how that is fun for people. There is very limited strategy involved…biggest army wins most of the time.

My small guild and I came to gw2 WvWvW expecting some viability of smaller groups. Beta was great, far less Zergy…now the WvWvW is just not fun for people who don’t like Huge fights. This is why most of my friends are no longer active in this game. Spvp is fun…but it isn’t the same. I agree with an earlier post, there should be a middle ground between Spvp and OMG ZERG fights of Wvw.

Alas….it is not so.

I was a bit disappointed to learn about some of the new changes to WvW that included a limiting on the amount of enemy players that could be effected by the Aoe of catapults, arrow carts, and other siege. To me, siege in WvW was a great equalizer when fighting groups that were far larger than your team. Changes like this, as well as the increase in damage players now do to tower doors, makes zerging more viable and WvW less strategic.

My suggestion is a debuff that would occur when a certain amount of allies were within a certain space at the same time. Ideally, this would be a movement penalty of some sort. For example: If me and 30 of my teammates are all standing in the same spot in front of the front keep door we would be hit with a movement penalty, or “crowding” unless we spread out a bit.

I think something along these lines would add a lot more strategy and less zerging to WvW battles.

Malicious guild is recruiting on the Sanctum of Rall server. We are a small guild, run by long time friends through many games. We are a WvW focused guild. Please go to maliciousguild.com for more info, or message a member in game.

The solution to better WvW matchups comes down to the players. If you are waiting 2 to 3 hours to get into WvW on an overpopulated server, transfer to a lower pop server. If you are a guild leader, take your guild with you.

If you play WvW for fun and challenging fights, you won’t regret the move. Taking and holding a keep from a server that has you outnumbered is much more fun and rewarding anyway.

Join us on Ferguson’s crossing, we need more WvW focused guilds. Move your guild to one of the lower pop servers and be part of the solution. You won’t regret it.
