Guild Wars 2

my 2 cents…

World vs World is just that, large numbers vs large numbers, not elitist groups thinking the maps belong to them. I’ve been playing MMO’s for over 10 years. Zergs happen and will continue to happen.

The maps are too small for groups to be really effective, but it is possible if you don’t travel the common routes the zerg takes and strike targets that can be taken quickly (camps or paper towers).

I think the commander tags should be for guild members or a “battle group” people can join once they enter. I would also like to see this battle group with a private chat, I’ve been noticing far too much lately an upleveled character at waypoints with a name of “xghbrhku” or something to that extent.

To solo roam you must expect at all times to get hit by adds, either another person from the same server as you opponent, small roaming group, or the zerg. If this is happening to often you need to relocate to somewhere with less traffic, but the downside is fights become less frequent.

Anyone that QQ’s about the zerg but still enjoys player vs player fighting should look in to structured PvP.

Do I zerg? Sometimes when my guild is not on. When they are, we’re the pain in the kitten group that stirs up trouble cutting off supply and taking paper towers.

Throwing in my two cents…

Don’t travel alone, I see the thief class as a stalker. Thieves prey on the alone and vanish before help arrives. Travel as a group and the chances of you dying to a thief are reduced.

A very good thief can take on multiple enemies, but to solo a group he needs to very good and are with a terrible group.

Not all thieves are good. I’m a walking example of a poorly played thief.

no buffs, main weapon is hammer, gave up some hitpoints for boon duration runes

+boon duration and soldier gear

0/10/30/30/0, altruistic healing, larger symbols, symbols heal all…. my main weapon is hammer, off set it mace/shield

I draw a lot of aggro. I also noticed I’m getting better drops too. When I had lower power and higher healing, I was getting kitten drops(blues only). Now that I have higher damage output I’m starting to see yellow/epic items for loot.

It is a matter of population. I was on FC when I began playing in November, Devona’s Rest dominated the map nearly 100% of the time, so I transferred to Tarnished Coast to join friends. It’s a decision I do not regret for a minute. (I enjoy the touch of class RPers bring)

A possible way to remove stagnation from the bottom tier is to re-enable free transfers to the bottom 2 servers, not just the bottom tier because many will will pick the winning server leaving the bottom 2 servers where they are.

AC is a level 35 dungeon, should be easier for people that are level appropriate.

My guess, and it is the reason I run the dungeon, is to get the soldier gear, if that was moved to another dungeons loot table you would have fewer 80’s in epic gear running it.

I play a thief and I’m terrible but I do have fun, many people have earned badges from me. If it took someone 2 hits to kill me, first swing must have glanced.
