Guild Wars 2

I am a member of Ethereal Guardians which is a major presence on Sanctum of Rall server. We maintain 500 members regularly. We are highly active. During peak hours we will have 200+ members online at one time. We greatly enjoy participating is large guild events to include daily Tequatl kills, guild missions and daily world event trains.

We do not like the Mega-Server update as it has caused problems with our ability to keep guild members together during these large scale events. I do not have an idea of how to fix this problem but I will say that this particular update has reduced the level of enjoyment our guild experiences.

Please consider removing the mega-server update if favor of the previous method of server administration.

Thank you.

I think Mr. Freist is saying that the summon items are not being used as they were intended by the developers. And yes, there are a tremendous drain on resources especially when you have a large guild group of about 100 doing world events and 50-70 players pop an ember. I have to put my graphics on the lowest setting every day for post reset activities.

As far as embers and/or summons being a player, I think he means as far as rendering and resources are concerned from a server administrator point of view.

Anet nerfing ele powder, pet whistles, spy kits, etc, is nothing new. I’ve been a GW player since the day GW1 was released. Anet has consistently swung the nerf bat at anything which made the game “easy” or in some way created a shortcut through content or otherwise made the acquisition of reward easier than the developers intended. Get use to it. If you plan to keep playing GW2 you will see this happen time and time again. Ingenious players will engineer tricks that will evolve into the meta only to be smashed by the devs.

I fully expect them to nerf Fiery Great Sword to require a target before a skill will activate sometime in the near future. Oops! Did I say that out loud?
