RWM has a rich history of both highs and lows when it comes to Guild Wars 2, some of this history is good and some of it bad. We have hit a low point where it is time to rebuild the core and try to move in the right direction.

What is left of our guild seeks inexperienced and experienced players to come play in a community that wants to be a family, knowing each other and working with one another to achieve various common goals in game. In the past the guild has been a mature guild often not accepting members who are less in 16 years of age or older and that is some that I would like to see continued forward into the future.

Most of our previous activities were different game modes but featured Dungeons, Fractals, PvP and WvW(TC).

Those interested can contact Cwean in game or reply here and you will be contacted soon!

LF Recruiter to help rebuild

Greetings,

I’m looking for someone who can help share the load of trying to recruit for a guild that has not been active in quite some time. I want to recruit members five a a time so that we can become acquainted with one another and hopefully build on lessons from a more disastrous time.

Now I’ll be quite honest and say that this guild has not been active in almost a year but at our peak we had almost 300 members. Sadly though that is no longer the case, and I’ll be honest again and say that I am the cause. It is not because I was a bad leader or anything, I just got burnt out from being the only person doing recruiting and left the game to try and recover the love for Guild Wars 2 that had not existed for some time before. Long story short, I left the guild in the hands of people I thought I could trust and they just let it die.

So here is what I seek:

-One or two people who are active enough to share the load with me in map hopping to recruit a new core membership. After this membership is established, the three of us should attempt to bring in five more members and attempt to build a culture of activity and being active.

The end result I am hoping is a flourishing guild that can do activities like Fractals, Dungeons, Raids and other things together with an understanding that we are all each a core important contributor to the Guild community.

Please feel free to contact me here on the forums or in game at atlrising.5134 if you are interested or have questions. I hope to hear from someone soon and am looking forward to working with you.

Thanks.

Matchmaking Joke fest

Premades should not be fighting pick up groups and honestly what is with allowing multiple of the same class in a match, I’m talking about 3 theives or 3 guards. Oh and while I’m ranting fix that joke of a profession you call Dragonhunter before I blow a censored gasket. That class puts in minimum effort and gets max results and all they have to do is immob you and place traps

Looking for serious members who want to take the time to make a guild great, we are in a rebuilding period and that takes members willing to be dedicated and go that extra mile. Those who join and prove they are willing could if they like find themselves in the fast lane to being an officer.
What we offer: We offer a guild that wants to do things, we want to be active and part of the community as a whole. In the past we have done fractals and dungeons on almost a nightly basis, we have offered in the past guild missions on a weekly basis. We offer a guild hall to all our members with buffs for them to use as well. We have been a guild for over two years now so the experience is there from the two owners/founders of the guild and one of us has played guild wars since the original game launched in 2005.
What we expect: We want you to be active members in our guild community, striving to do things with us and make the guild the best it can possibly be. We have no rep requirement but ask that you at least set it up so you can see our guild chat and communicate with us. We have two teamspeak servers so if one goes down the other can be used and TS is required only during guild missions but people are always welcome to hop on and chat with us. Matter of fact we encourage you to hop on because we want you to feel as if your part of a family when you are with us.
Message me in game or whisper me for further questions or an invite and we hope you will join us soon!

Frustration with PvP

Posted by: atlrising.5134

atlrising.5134

Stronghold is a joke and I dont consider it to be true pvp. I dont want my guild members learning it and want to know why we are locking off conquest to new players completely. This was fine and understandable back when ranked was gated at least they still could experience actual matches.

Please dont tell me to take them into practice hotjoin matches either we all know thats where most of these high tier pvp players go to farm those with only average or worse skill and I do not think that will benefit them.

I still think and have since HoT launch that it was a stupid move to completely lock out the ranked queue from everyone.

P.S. Please remove that piece of kitten stronghold mode from this game.

Guild Hall Lore

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: atlrising.5134

atlrising.5134

We’ll be introducing two guild halls with the launch of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns. The first is the Lost Precipice, a hidden canyon refuge on the border between the Maguuma Jungle and the wastelands to the north. Empty cliff dwellings dot the walls of the precipice, and rope bridges connect stone spires of dizzying heights. Who carved the dwellings, passages, and statues into the rock of this windswept retreat, and what happened to them?
Secreted beyond a lost golden city in the heart of the jungle, the second guild hall that players can explore and settle is the Gilded Hollow. This monolithic cavern contains the remnants of an outpost of that city, but why was such a grandiose space carved out in the first place, and why was it abandoned? The answers await those willing to brave its winding halls and the vast aquifer it’s built atop.

I guess I just do not see this. I walk around my guild’s hall and see nothing that might tell the story of the civilization that lived there previously.

As someone who is interested in lore in general, I was excited to claim our guild hall and really fed into the line that it was once home to an civilization. Problem is there are no hints on who they were or what their importance was to Tyria, the elder dragons or anything. All we get is that Modremoth wanted the crystal inside of it but even that we aren’t told much about and why he would want it. Give us the ability to interact with stuff and find out more about the civilization that lived there before us so that we can tell the story of that lost culture.

I was looking forward to trying my revenant in pvp when I pre-ordered Heart of Thorns back after it was announced. I took part in all of the beta weekends and learned the different combo and skill sets. Now we got all this?

Reapers who swing their scythe around with permanent chills and blinds turning you into an ice icicle. They destroy an entire five man team by themselves and nearly without a sweat.

Dragonhunters who have traps that are better than any thief or ranger trap could ever be, they lay it on you and daze with no way out of it so they just have to at that point pound of you while you stand there and watch your HP go down. The traps themselves are high damage and severely over powered and the guardians know it. I have not seen a normal guardian in a whole week. Sometimes seeing three or more dragonhunters on a single team. Where is the balance of teams and the coding to prevent this type of thing from occurring?

Druids dont even get me started on this, what were you thinking? This build is nonsense, they cant be killed if they play things correctly. You get them down low and they just pop celestial form and heal all the way back up. Once their bar is up full again they rinse and repeat until their team arrives.

Honestly every elite has its issues and many of them are overpowered and need some work. The two weakest have to be revenant and daredevil.

Lets not even discuss the MMR, I havent won more than one or two matches all day for about three days straight now.

Come on Anet dont take six months to fix your kittening mistake. Man up and fix them now.

Boosts in Guild Halls

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: atlrising.5134

atlrising.5134

The tavern buffs aren’t usable by ppl without HoT. The old guildwide buffs were. Therefore the non-HoT ppl have lost.

No, they haven’t. Everyone lost the old buff system. HoT or no. The tavern buff system isn’t comparable at all as its scaling and acquisition method is completely different. non-HoT people can’t use it, this is true, but that’s like saying they “lost” scribing.

They have less buffs than people with HoT. Yes. But only if the guild in question chose to spend their resources on those buffs, knowing that many members can not use them.

If you spend materials donated by members without hoT knowing full well they couldn’t use them, in stead of fast tracking scribe or waypoint discounts, that’s the guild leader’s fault.

You are not required to take those buff upgrades in order to advance the hall’s services that do benefit non-HoT players.

Or we could just tell your non HoT members that you do not support them having access to the services. That solves a lot of problems.

I’m pretty sure we can all agree that when Anet said those without HoT could enter the guild halls, we all thought that meant all members could benefit from the guild coming together to make things happen. This puts guild halls effectively behind a paywall and forces a player to buy something to do stuff with the guild even if they do not want the expansion to begin with.

It pretty much requires HoT to claim a guild hall without going into spoilers here. It is not really a guild hall unless all members of the guild can get to enjoy it and reap the rewards of having one. I would not want to contribute to it knowing I got jack kitten out of it.

I feel like the game is locking those who do not have heart of thorns out of the benefits of a guild hall, which should be for all members regardless if they spent $50 or more on your xpac. I had a member of my guild come into the hall today because he was told about the xp boost and the vendor would not let him have one without the expansion. What is the point of a guild hall for people without HoT and why should they donate materials to it if they can not receive any benefit from it. It is afterall, a GUILD hall and not an Heart of Thorns member’s club.

Please unlock the boosts and other things so that ALL members can enjoy and benefit the halls without being forced to buy your expansion to feel like part of the guild experience.

Dear Devs,

I am enjoy the story and the content so far in Heart of Thorns, I have been in the jungle since it launched and really have not left. So bravo on that part since normally PvE is not my thing at all but I must complain a bit so you understand I am not completely happy however. My biggest complaint is I can not play my mesmer as a chronomancer, the character I have spent the most time on, built ascended armor for and took the time to craft legendary weapons for. So for now she sits and I play my ranger who I really only ever used to long into for guild recruiting purposes because she had map completion which made it easier to unlock over half of the ranger elite. One last thing before I go, did I mention the nine other level 80 characters I cant try the elite for due to the hero point requirement?

Sincerely,
An upset player

P.S I don’t want a refund, I just want to play my elite specialization
