Guild Wars 2

Bugged in Desolation.

If you are unsure about Desolation know that we have cookies :P

(Seriously though…Lots of cookies…)

At least one official response would be appreciated.

Hi all,
as a part and a Commander of EoW im sorry what happened.
It was not our intention to use this bug and we still dont know how this bug works.
It was an accident that some guys glitched in somehow (not only Mesmer).
We are also sorry for taking the tower after that. I was leading the raid and after a random mesmer made his portal i failed in stoping them from getting through this mesmer portal into the tower, because i didnt know what happened. So this portal was not a portal of a EoW Member.
I talked to our Member. This wont happen again.
We apologize for that accident.

We hope Anet will fix it soon

A similar thing happened to IRON in the past mate so kitten happens it’s ok, the important thing is showing mutual respect and understanding, thanks for the apology

[IRON] players are pretty weak at 1v2 sadly most of the time they are ~20-30 hard to tell with the culling issues. This is nothing but a zergfest so me and friends decided to take a WvW breake.

Deso is strong no question about that. But with your numbers idk why you couldnt stay at t2, come on Baruch Bay couldnt compete with us at primetime you can, whats wrong?

you have alot large zergguilds this is not the WvW i like.
Most people on MS and Kodash play for fun and challenge, not to win at all costs.

We don’t really have that much numbers, only a couple bigger guilds and some smaller guilds, other than that most of the numbers in WvW go to jumping puzzles or some randoms who are almost impossible to organize since most of them are not in our voice comms. I don’t even need to talk about our non existing night coverage and not enough morning coverage. I don’t know about the other guilds but IRON alone have been trying to hold 2 maps at the same time for the last couple days and doing that barely by a lot of support from allies and now since Kodash has started to show a lot more organized presence than the last couple of days, the fight is getting much more intense now.

Long story short, we need more guilds in WvW and we need them fast

The thing you need to know about Xaoc, prepare to counter golems…lots and lots of golems

Rayya.2591:

I added an short fraps to see is not icon bugg
if you cannot see it tell me where to upload it
Edit you can also see first screen he had it for 5 min then 10 min even if he was alone so was self buff, and from thief last 30 seconds or 3 attacks

I sent a pm to our guild officer concerning the issue. I’m sure they will look into it when they see it.

iiMulch.2138:

Very funny how you people claim that all desolation are pugs and “know nothing about tactics” when GoD and many other guilds are doing an awesome job in wvw. Use mesmer portals/turtle/etc. And are very organised. I think you should rethink before you post crap like that and stop thinking you are the kings of desolation wvw.

You aren’t the only wvw guild around theres many others on different borderlands doing a good job.

The term “Pug” is used in our TS to identify the players, following our zerg and parties but not in the guild, alliance guild or in TS. It’s used for informative purposes (for example debriefing the commander saying “4 IRON, 3 Pugs in the camp”), not to degrade or offend anybody.

Other than that nobody in IRON thinks that we are king of Desolation or anyplace else, on the contrary we can’t stress enough how important alliance guilds are for the war effort.

Criticism is ok but please be more constructive about it.

Nohonor.5382:

It will be curious to see how deso plateaus out after this move by RUIN. Players can talk all the want, in the end we will see how much deso needed/didn’t need RUIN.

It’s not a matter of need. RUIN did cover the night shifts yes and it was essential, now since there is no stable night coverege it will be worse for points and yes we will drop tiers in the long run (maybe starting this week i don’t know and don’t care) if we don’t find some night shifters. But considering how RUIN made everyone hate them, hurted Desolation’s and so many other server’s prestige it’s still a win. I’d personally prefer getting owned in a respectfull and fun environment rather than trying to pick up the pieces of this trash. It’s no more a game for fun for other Desolation players and guilds but just being a colletral damage in an all out war between RUIN and the servers they pissed off. Everybody is sick of this.

Long story short, good riddance and sorry for Blacktide.

Calendor.2675:

…Desolation were letting them down and want to play on a server they dont believe they are carrying.

Yup, i left the guild after i heard this and will look for another wvw guild.

So now it’s Desolation that is letting THEM down…come on!! :S and no single guild is carrying the server, if not for the smaller scale guilds undertaking 5 man party operations or supporting the main zerg we would all be trapped in our waypoints. There is an alliance going on. IRON for example is under strict orders; “If ordered, obey the alliance commanders without question” and other alliance guilds are doing the same thing. No one can take sole credit for any success nor any failure can be burdened on one guild.

Btw. IRON is recruiting if interested

Differenttan.7049:

Rumour has it that IRON is on the verge of imploding, due to Cyanide being caught with their hand in the cookie jar……Wrex is trying to hold it together but not quite succeeding.

Due to this, RUIN are of the mindset that they will be left as the only major guild on Desolation in WvWvW, trying to cover all four maps, which they did before in NA, and couldnt maintain, so they are moving to BT (some already have moved, some are in the process of moving).

Seems to me the challenge that RUIN claimed to be looking for would be found by staying on Desolation, RUIN appear to have other ideas though…..

There is no imploding in IRON. There is a work in progress going on for improving guild effectiveness, and because of the general server disarray we are taking it easy a little bit but IRON is still active, up and moving.

If RUIN is pointing IRON for their decisions it’s just making an excuse, nothing more.

Long story short, IRON isn’t going anywhere, we stick by our comrades in good day and bad. IRON always stand by his convictions

There is no official announcement from RUIN about this, on the contrary most of them are telling that there is no such a thing, no need to jump to conclusions

DavidMonthen.4398:

There IS NO SUCH THING as an overkill!

As you can see I learned that the hard way

Devitz.2136:

I’m also sure that Deso and VS will have a better vision of what Blacktide can bring to the battle…

After seeing this, I have a pretty good idea of what Blacktide can bring to battle You don’t know the meaning of the word “Overkill” do you

Slashpaf.9250:

Vizu wants Deso and his US mercenaries with too big mouthes to be kicked out of this Tier, and the more humiliated they are, the best we feel.

If RUIN has shown us the minimum respect we (the only T1 serv since the beginning) deserved, maybe we would have considered this match differently. But this is not the case, so you’ll learn to be less arrogant next time you’ll fight with the bests.

I can understand the frustration but not everbody is badmouthing you in Desolation, actually IRON have a strict “no badmouthing to anybody” policy, so no need to have prejudices about the whole server and of course humiliation is a bit strong word for a game mate, everybody have their good days and bad days. Blacktide is winning fair and square and Vizunah is putting up a pretty tough fight too so you deserve to be in T1 in my opinion. There is no need to hate an entire server or make this a matter of life and death

People accuse Desolation of nightcapping but the thing is just couple of weeks before we were losing tons of points to night capping by other servers. This is not a great Desolation conspiracy, just adaptation to the rules of the game, all the servers are trying to cover all hours of the day, why the hell it is a wrong thing when we do the same just to keep up with the competition?

Same thing goes for the thief matter, last week Vizunah and Arbor was using the same freaking tactic, preventing a 50 men zerg from capping a supply camp for 15 minutes and now since we started fighting fire with fire it’s a crime and an exploit all of a sudden. Please…

I got to say, Blacktide is really giving a hell of a fight, the strongest opposition i have seen yet. Keep up the good work people, see you on the battlefield

On a side note for Desolation discussions please have a look at the following thread

Blade.9317:

Sadly guardian is relatively useless in wvwvw.

Well if you had seen a group of Guardians forming a chain of shield commanded by their commander breaching a downed castle wall with a zerg behind them awaiting for the attack order, you would think different mate With some organization and the right commander it turns out epic

tyu / You have been given an explanation for that situation, IRON did not use exploit, there is no need to slander.

About the wrong section thing, i really thought about where to put the topic but it seemed as a technical issue to me since it concerns the development. If i’m wrong it will be moved, not a big issue i suppose

I have two monitors and i’d like to use my second effectively. What i’m asking is not anything like triple monitor setups with eyefinity etc. , it’s more like the system in Supreme Commander 2, i’d like to use the main monitor normally but put the map and chat windows (and party info etc. things like that) to the second.

Having the map and chat full screen on the second monitor would really enhance the gameplay. I’d like to know if there is a plan to add such a thing or if it can be considered by the developers.
