Guild Wars 2

I’m also having terrible freeze issues and no, I doubt it’s my computer’s fault, worked fine (run everything on high) for the first few days after the HoT update.
Tried both the normal and 64 client, didn’t help.

Another bug: can’t enter any keep/tower.

Would also love the devs to anwser this question.

Much thanks to FSP who didn’t take the GH garrison today even though the hackers destroyed both inner and outer gates. Shows that FSP supports fair play.

I’ve also been on GH since the beta and never heard about this.
Alliance? We had one that I remeber, but I think they left server all together, no big scary argument here.
Forcing a poor 500 members guild to do something?
1) We never had anyone on server powerful enough to do such thing. Two options here: either there was a guild even bigger then this 500 members one that was ordering people around (and I somehow missed this guild – maybe they all played thieves) or this big, incredible, pro guild was ordered by a few people – an then they should have simply added those people to ignore :P Either way it makes no sense to me.
2) I have no idea what is this thing that should be done by a small guild and not by a big one. Imo, big guild should do all those things that small guilds do and more – I mean they have more people, more recources so they should do more.

Not rezing other guilds? I’ve mostly done only wvw since beta, never seen problems like that. Of course there were situation were player A didn’t rezz player B right away – mostly because he/she was still fighting.

Tbh, when I read this post I get this image of empty GH with only few people running around ordering each other :P Not really what I’ve seen for all the time I’ve been here.

My favourite quote:
“The self-proclaimed leaders decided they owned the server and its guilds. "

Paranoid much?

Guess who’s coming home for dinner… :P

Welcome back?

RiverHold at work!

Well, it’s not like this keep was empty, right? :P (looks at the green dots on the mini map)

A very nice match in my opinion, hope that next few days are gonna be also just as interesting.

Sulvation.5473:

Gunnar’s, just a question. Is it always like this or is this mainly because of Reset? Because wow you got alot of people XD.

Oh well, we faced French (they blob like ants breed :O) and I hope to get a good week, especially after a suprising RoF,RoS week!
Good luck to all sides, and I hope to get some good fights!

We’re always rather strong at the reset plus we won our last match, so yeah, we had quite a lot of people in wvw tonight. I don’t know if it will stay this way all week though
I’m pretty happy to be facing WSR again, You might sometimes lack numbers but You have many skilled players

Steelo.4597:

The Millers borderland was pretty red at reset (hills and bay ours for a long while), but not a blue dot there of course since they had to go to GH.

I will just add that we actually had a queue at Miller’s borderland at the early reset

Nice reset night, after a week with PS and RS I feel really happy to be fighting RoS and MS – got killed quite a few times in GH map both by RoS and by MS, but also managed to defend some keeps and towers and I think this match up is quite ok.

Signed, please devs notice that this is something different from commander’s squad

Yaro.3251:

Try this with rest of professions and then come back. THEN maybe we’ll be impressed.

Thief doing his job well. Wow. What else is new….

Umm, isn’t that an elem in the picture?

Dawdler.8521:

Zgorzel.4902:

We don’t have PS and RS numbers so we’re a bit more careful about choosing our fights.

3 hours ago PS still had the outmanned buff on GH borderland.

Either we are less than you think or you are more than you think :p

(RS is of course another story)

Well I have yet to visit PS borderland Prolly we would be outmanned there too

Loco.4561:

Riverside are just not fun to fight against, individually and in small groups they are just awful and too easy to fight. They only ever engage in the open if they massively outnumber you or they just turtle up into keeps/towers and fill the place with AC’s even if they outnumber you 3:1. The playstyle is just boring/irritating and no fun, basically :p And gunners seem non-existing this matchup, all I ever see is GH gank groups, picking on solo players or uplevels, I haven’t seen them in the borders actually pushing for an objective, they just run around ganking.

Of course we just run ganking. And towers and keeps that are red just changed color on their own
We don’t have PS and RS numbers so we’re a bit more careful about choosing our fights. When I was playing on reset night we had some nice fights against both RS and PS though.

Sandro.3694:

No purpose whatsoever, and i don’t have special grieff against any of you guys, just telling this week wasn’t fun imo.

Now if you wan’t to summon me to court for giving my opinions…

Hmm, we get a very balanced and close match and You don’t think it’s fun…

Would a match where Your server is having twice as many points as other two servers be more to Your liking? If so I really recommend Blacktide.

WSR has some nice players, that don’t cry on forum when they are losing.
They also defend well when they have players online. A good opponent and a server worth to transfer

Jordiboy.2301:

i say alliance because……
1. to massive zerg CONSTANTLY within our corner
2. example jerrifers is under attack by one server the other server is at golanta trebbing/cata klovan
3. i have not ONCE seen your servers fight at all today
4. Not only the 2 zergs in our corner in EB but 2 zergs of urs in our BL
we are losing lowlands from both north and south at same time / mainly losing via the north and south is spawn camping
seems rather fishy if you ask me…..

PRXM put a link to a movie where they fight DZ.
In case You missed it, it’s in this thread – it’s called Good to be back. PRXM Vs Dz and (surprise, surprise) it shows PRXM fighting DZ!

We had some nice fights against DZ last night – it seems though they think it’s normal in WvW for other servers to atack You, so they didn’t come to cry on forum about some imaginary alliance.

Malediktus.9250:

Its not a good idea to compare good low lvls against bad max lvls. You would have to compare about equally skilled players to get an idea.
Alternatively we could removed downed mode in WvW. It would fix a lot of issues upscaled players add to WvW.

It is a good idea to compare good low levels, because you will be excluding them from playing.

How am I excluding them from playing? Most people who leech exp in wvw are people who got several 80s already. If they want to play wvw they should come with their 80s or stay away from my zerg. They choose to selfishly cripple the zerg to gain wvw and save money on crafting or time for other ways of leveling.
I wouldnt complain if they dont have an 80, but most of them do have several.

A GOOD commander will be able to use also upscalled/not so skilled players. It seems to me that You are simply not a good commander.
I play only my level 80 charas in wvw, but that’s cause I made this decision. Also, I will group up with upleveled players and rez them.

pejot.4806:

GH, your current result makes me sad You sentence us for another week in t7

It’s RoS being lazy!

I believe a certain hunter is looking at the wonderful North american shores…

I believe GH are the worst server i have ever seen on this game

<3

Best of luck finding a server you love to call home!

Well, He did visit a lot of servers… :P

Stay tuned for the next thread “Ranger killed me. Nerf Rangers!!”

skwas.9873:

Looking at GH side of the maps, I sense a wp coming in AS hills… :]

Yeah, and we’ll get a nice AS waypoint in our Garrison :P

Zeal.1376:

Again I must compliment the tenacity of WSR. Each week we are outnumbered, each week we have to face servers that have far more organized guilds and each week we have to dump increasingly depressing amounts of gold into upgrading our towers/keeps.

Our newly implemented public chat program has made it a lot easier to compete and I’m pretty happy to have moved to WSR a few months ago.

WBC has a lot to learn still but I’m glad we’re now making an impact on the battlefield. There’s been some good fights so far and it seems less like a blob fest to fight against this week.

It’s fun to see those arrow carts at gates to shoot trough the gate on our defensive siege inside as the only means to get trough our defense. That being said, the arrow carts are currently waaayyy overpowered. Luckily that works both ways, it has saved us as many times as it has destroyed us.

At least we can find some good fights this week without having to face 60+ blobs. See you on the battlefield either with my guild or roaming group.

It’s great fun to have to use my zerg tank to full extent, more of this ! Great fun

Went yesterday to WSR borderland hoping to cause some trouble there. WSR seem very good at defending their keeps/towers. Cheers for the nice fights, hope we can get more of them this week.

Blackwyn.8127:

Fair enough, I guess the majority didn’t like it. As most enjoy following the blue tag and just fight big zergs, I should’ve guessed that small skirmishes / solo runs are not as popular.
But in big zergs it’s already as cluttered as can be and as an argument to the ones saying ‘hell no, clutters screen’. Then you can easily just say ‘turn off player names then and problem solved’.

I do think titles deserve their spot in WvW as well (in addition to the point mentioned earlier), some can be pretty time consuming and people like to show them off. Just like people like to show off their Legendaries as well. Or will it eventually reach a point where almost everyone will have a Twilight and people will complain that the effects clutter too much in WvW and demand Legendary graphics to be removed as well?

As I see it, people don’t want titles in WvW cause it clutters the screen. But in the zergs I’ve seen in T1, it’s already cluttered enough with 100+ players. So having title clutter is insignificant (as stabbing a person to death and then stabbing him ten extra times). If it really bothered you that much, you would suggest to turn off player names in options which is the same groundless argument as removing titles cause it clutters the screen.

Naturally player names appearing are more important. But titles can be just as meaningful.

So You think that “against titles”=mindless zerger and “wants titles”=“a pro, small group player”? I don’t particulary care about my enemy title – what I care is how skilled he/she is and that I will see in combat.

Also – almost all people getting Twilight/other legendary weapon? Many wvw players leave wvw only to ask people in LA to help defend/atack some keep/tower. So somehow I don’t see this situation happening soon.

Eclipse.1567:

What s that?
Sore loser? constant whining? funny boys starting to go offensive…
Again im just pointing out that at beginning at the thread all GH is speaking of 0 focus and now some admit they focus AS because you have Hills but no problem keep say how this mathc up is “refreshing” and “interesting” because you have an OP advantage.

With all respect – we know that GH will win this match up. And believe me, we don’t care who will come second, so there is no need for us to focus on anyone. According to MOS, Your server will be in the same tier next week fighting against WR and RoF and we don’t have any evil plans to send You to any other tier.

Tallis.5607:

Vena.8436:

That’s not right; the current combo time is 1.5 seconds (on armor less than 1900/16000 health, ie glass cannons, scale it appropriately with multipliers for your armor/health value):

• Black Powder ~= 1k on crit
• Steal ~= 5.5k on crit + condition on target
• Heartseeker ~= 3.75k on crit + condition + >50% health; 6.6k on crit + condition + <50% health. (Puts you into stealth.)
• Backstab ~= 8.5k on crit + condition + >50% health; 10.2k on crit + condition + <50% health.
• Proc::Lightning Strike ~= 1.5k condition + >50% health; 1.8k condition + <50% health.
• Total = 25,000 damage.

Let’s see if I understand this correct… according to you, thiefs can do 25,000 damage in 1.5 seconds.

And you think that this does not needs to be nerfed?

You think doing 25k damage in 1.5 seconds is normal??

Really???

This deserves a nerf. Plain and simple. A BIG nerf.

.

Also… anyone… feel free to show me a rotation where a warrior does 25k damage in 1.5 seconds.

Could You first show me a thief that regulary gets this kind of damage?

My damage:
Black powder – around 500
Steal – I don’t use Mug, so 0
Heartseeker – 2000
Backstab – I think I had once 4k crit on an upleveled player, so let’s leave that – 4k
Total – 6.500 – yeah, I feel deadly and op :P

The problem is that there are thieves and thieves – we don’t all use scary glass canon build to bully new players. What kind of damage would You like me to have? 200 crit on backstab, or is it still too much? Nerfing thieves isn’t that simple.

NOM (23) versus GH (70)
[img]http://img11.hostingpics.net/pics/465114gw170.jpg[/img]

Still talking ?

Nice, big picture, makes it easier to get approximate number of GH players. I counted 38 and well that includes at least 3 pets (no idea about mesmer clones and stuff like that :P).

Jimmy JimBob.2801:

alkalone.5798:

We called XxX to help us to take back Hills. We were preparing for fight when you took it. We weren’t able to protect hills at this particular moment. And then, you slept on hills, to finnaly, die at bluevale after 1 hour of idiot fight . You said that we zerg at night ? We just play H24 thanks to some guilds like FRS.
And last things, every time we find a GH’s guild who plays without the zerg, SHE RUNS AWAY !
Remember that diying on the game, doesn’t make you die on the real life.
But, step by step, we are practicing, to handle your big blog on our own. I just think you will be on T8 next week

I find this post hilarious. A complete misunderstanding of the Gunnars community

1) How can you not understand why we were fighting in Vale?! We have no way of winning so why bother fighting for points when we can just have a laugh and enjoy ourselves. It’s like you think fighting over objectives and for any reason other than having fun is madness.
2) A lot of us actually hope we’ll be on T8 next week. You guys aren’t going to T6 for at least another week so we’ll enjoy some more balanced fights next week where we don’t need to “blob” to even have a chance of doing something wrt points.

3. Hmm, fight at vale – correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t we fighting RoS in that “idiot fight”? Did You just call Your server-mates idiots? My, oh, my :P

4. Fighting a guild without a zerg… Non-zerg=less then 10 people?
So You want our 10 people group to fight with Your guild zerg (and I’ve seen You guys yesterday sorry, but You have more then 10 people) and with XxX defending Your backs? Hmm, yes that sounds like a fair fight – we’re flattered that You think so highly of our skills :P

Azkadelia.2490:

midiean.8469:

You sound jealous

No not really, I just don’t see the point in posting this unless it is 100 % green
And kicking out a server (red) with almost no night coverage is not an art, just boring door bashing. Nothing to be proud of

I don’t see the point of posting it EVEN if they do turn the whole map green :P
I mean pvdoor helps to win, but it doesn’t require much skill.

Nymph of Meliai.6739:

nicely done guys

Pvdoor for the win! :P

Also, the fights at RoS borderlands were great. Also farming at vale? I remember us getting really wiped once, that’s not a very good farm :P

Some good players/guilds at RoS, pitty that Your numbers are sometimes spoiling the fun

BrainZz.8976:

Lol im only posting that because you could have easily wiped us at bay, but instead you built trebs and hide behind the lake? We ported to spawn 3 times to get supply while you were in bay and if you have had a decent commander you would have taken bay easily you were more than twice our numbers.
And about the t1 zerg: i will make screenshot next time, we had less than 10 vcy and about 5 riot, rest was randoms .
Stop whining start improving, the skill lv of many dz zergs reminds me of jadesea zerker upscaled guys

We were never bored when fighting against DZ <3 Your server had too many people joining, so there is no way for You to get nice, small scale battles in this tier.

Genev.2450:

It doesn’t invalidate what people are saying, I was simply curious where that came from and figured you guys would know, since obviously, you’re from the same server and would know better than me why he seemed so unhappy.
I haven’t followed what happened to GH after I left last time, so the reaction seemed a bit weird to me.

So in Your opinion if we can find a hacker/cheater on Your server then You will obviously know what is he thinking?

Teel.9036:

Edeor.9720:

Nightingale.8364:

We came here looking for those kinds of fights, and despite what you may think about us, alot of our players started on low Tier servers and know exactly what to expect, its one of the reasons why we moved here. The massive blobs that exist in T1 are tbh vey depressing, we are a social guild too and enjoy playing together, this wasnt possible in T1 anymore, this is possible now.

Have fun all and see you on the field.

If this was your intent then you have made the wrong choice. With the transfer of the last days RoS will be soon in the same tier of FSP, Gandara, or Aurora Glade, and you’ll be overwhelmed by blobs (hell even FN and AM like to blob).

After all, don’t you think it’s pretty pointless to move en masse to a lower tier? It’s obvious that the server will rise quickly and you’ll end up at the starting point, in other words, blobs and lag.

What will you do at that point? Another mass transfer to start over? And then again, again, again … It’s clear that this game has limits in W3, but it is equally obvious that the players are committed to make things worse, and the absurd thing is that it would take very little to prevent the blobs fest.

There most likely is a huge difference between T1 blobs and T5/T6 blobs. I take it you’ve never met Vizunah in its current state.

The point is that in lower tiers the guilds are usually smaller and they will cooperate with other guilds to win. So talking about “Oooh, our pro guild is fighting blobs, we are so awesome” makes no sense to me. Sorry, You are simply fighting GH force – calling us blob will not make You look cooler :P

This suggestion imo is rather silly. So You want less people in the wvw maps. Stop going there then and ask all Your friends/allies to do the same. Done – You have a smaller zerg.
….
Ohh, maybe You wanted less other people to come so You can have fun on Your own? Well tough luck it will not work like that. I’m in not one of the high tier servers – and I think this idea is super silly – becuase people didn’t pay for this game so they can stand in the queues for hours. If it’s always 70 vs 70 where You are then just move to a lover tier server.

We lost focus after the good start and the victory got snatched from us
Nicely done FS and a good match.

Tomasen.6013:

I was there at sunny. A mesmer told us he was pulled up on the wall and he made a portal and jumped. Dont know if that is true, but since i dont know all spells i must asume hes speaking corectly. i used the portal because i beleaved in him.

An honest player, who deosn’t support cheating after glitching “by accident” into a keep would simply leave, not make a portal to get other players inside. I reported every fs player I found inside Sunny – learn to be responsible for Your actions.

Pitty, I was really hoping that GH would have a chance to fight “old” PS again.
Good luck to the core guilds

You do know that to use that signet You actually have to put it in Your toolbar and “waste” a spot You could use for another skill?
It’s not that those classes get this speed for free.

Gamblit.5041:

I advice you to reconsider your stay. With out the morning-noon players, you will be at the buttom of the WvW and among the other dead servers. You’ll be facing unorganized mobs of PuG players, most likely PvErs that WvW on occasion.

What’s exactly the point of your post? Awwww we are losing to sheer numbers in prime time so we need to jump ship?

No thx learn to fight against odds tbh, you’ll become a better player …

To let you know the situation of Gunnar’s forces at 11:26 CET. There were around 5 of us, on 4 maps.

I don’t really see a problem. 11:26 CET is not even our prime time – most of GH players are at work at that time. So wow, we are losing points when fighting servers with more wvw players when we are at work. Shocking.

I got talked into coming to GH by a few friends from a different game. They mostly stoped playing, I joined a new guild and registered at GH unofficial forum. All I can say, that even when we are losing points, even when opponents control 90% of the map I am really enjoying myself. I know that to some more hardcore wvw players it sounds silly, but we really are having fun playing wvw on GH – people at mumble are talking, joking and the atmosphere is great.

Other servers often have great, big, wvw guilds with players that already know each other from different games – those players already know how to work together. We are still learning that – we also don’t have enough people to cover all wvw maps. We know it – and we accept it. Still I have no intention of leaving GH.

Many thanks to all those players from different servers (Piken, AM, AG,…) that has been encouraging us to keep fighting and continue building our community. GH is not giving up!

Also, all GH players – please remeber to check out http://www.gunnars-hold.eu/forum.php . If You have ideas that could help our server, if You’re a guild leader that wants to advertise his guild or if You are simply looking for people for wvw runs, You can find it all there.
