P/P isnt that bad as people claimed to be, it is probably top 3 single range DPS in the game if speced correctly.
You can pretty much spam 3 unload in every 10 seconds, which deals around 7k~12k damage depends on the buff you have, add in the autoattack damage from pistol 1 and bleed,it’s dps is actually much better than melee weapon when you cant dps on the target with 80% uptime.
I have seen lots of people in high level FOTM used shortbow/Melee weapon but then they usually never bother to use their melee weapon and pretty much just autoattack and clusterbomb with their shortbow even when they are on single target.
So why not just used shortbow/dual pistol if you never used your melee weapon at all?
Conclusion:
For pve, it is actually the best single target dps weapon for thief, unless you have the confidence that you can melee on boss with more than 80% uptime.
For SPVP/TPVP, it is bad, dont use it.
DB is a server like JQ,
with good Sea presence, lots of pugs, and most importantly, it seems DB has more organized wvw guilds than JQ.
Both server do have lots of similarities.
To be honest, they do have the number to compete with T1 server(well, people will show up less when they are losing), but they are kind of inexperienced,
so all DB needed is more experience or maybe a good T1 WvW guild to lead them, once they have that, they could turn into a real dragon.
Well its always about luck, and when you do get a ring from the daily theres no guarantee it will be one that fits your build.
There is something you can do to get them though, and this is by using 10 pristine relics to trade for a ring of your choice at the fotm merchant. It’s up to you if you want to do this, no one knows yet if/when anet will impliment another use for the pristine relics
yea i do know that 10 pristine relics for a ring thing,
the problem is i want to progress faster…
with 0 ar, although i have no problem survive 95% of the bosses out there, but some people just feel uncomfortable when i tell them i will die when Jade Maw phase change ….
And most importantly..i feel like no reward at all for getting this far
Hello guys, i quited the game when Fotm released and recently just come back to play GW2.
I must admit that Fotm is a really well made contents, and i really enjoy it.
I spent about 5 days to raise my personal fotm level to level26 with pugs and 0 Ar, till today i already got 9(from level 10) of the daily bonus chests from fotm, and yet,i haven’t received any single ring from those bonus chests. Is this normal or I just got kittened up badly by RNG?
If prx(no not the ripped off prx – ward) decided to come back, JQ’s problem would be solved, since they have like 10 thousand people playing wvw everynight.
I still dont get it. BG had no issues or worries about ‘balance’ when they recieved pretty much every major guild from KN and was ticking 400+ pretty much perm.
Now SoR received 1 euro guild and have good fortune in regards to playing smart and the enemy playing sloppy its suddenly a broken T1 that’s unbalanced and will be for months.
BG and JQ have more players on there servers then SoR, even right now at midday UK time. IRON’s 100 people transferring over wasn’t enough to push our status from Very High to Full so the gap between them 2 ratings must be a large.
__________________________________________________________________
You need to motivate your servers community to get into WvW. SoR has an amazing community and we assign every guild we know off to a borderland at reset night (apart from Ace he solos SoR-BL for us).
__________________________________________________________________
Why do people from SoR keep posting screenshots showing how JQ/BG are ‘full’ and SoR is ‘very high’? A lot of the players that make JQ/BG ‘full’ are casual with very little interest in WvW. Most of them probably transferred for the sole reason of getting map completion. The only thing that motivates these players to play WvW is seeing that their server is already doing well and is in 1st. SoR being the underdog of T1 for so long doesn’t have many of these players. Win a few weeks and SoR will be full too.
It is called karma.
Just like last 2 week, how Bg peeps kept bragging and posting how JQ was full .
Typical SoR troll trying to create drama saying that a JQ alliance is transferring out. This really ticks me off, SoR does not deserve to be in T1. Terrible kittening community that resorts to stupid kitten like this
Well that was deleted fast. But really, it’s a shame that you don’t realize that it was warranted to your server since, uh, JQ keeps trying to call out the other servers on their past.
JQ has past as well. Try not to forget what suddenly threw JQ to a solid first place contender… when free transfers were coming to an end. Which was the main server of choice back then? It might be best if you just welcome everyone to their new home… just like in the past.
I’ve never had a problem with new transfers, ever. But having an enemy of my server create drama intended to try and break my server apart; that just doesn’t sit right with me.
OH WAIT, just did a quick search on your posting history and realize that i was replying to a troll…LOL silly me..you got me with your signature, nice one.

Wow, really…?
Since you are getting way too serious, i will be the good guy to tell you that JQ will not break apart due to the several reasons below.
1. I believe there are not many dedicated WVW guilds left on JQ. Most people just don’t care if they are 1st or last as long as JQ is on T1~T2.
2. Majority of players in GW2 won’t even check this forum, let alone this topic.
3. Most people are already lose interest in WVW..or even the game -gw2 itself.
So don’t worry, JQ won’t fall apart, therefore you should let those trolls have fun.
Let’s be honest, here’s what happened. WM/MEOW/etc transferred to BG and started fighting NA/OC/AZ timezone and got wrecked. Jang and co seeing they couldn’t compete changed their schedules and started logging in en masse for EU TZ which was dead for the other 2 servers.
Whatever may come out of Jang’s mouth, 2 things are clear: 1. WM isn’t in it for the “challenge”. and 2. They don’t have the chops for T1 combat.
WM is nowhere near as big as Choo/TW/Hire/Fire/HzH/EMP. Their zerg consists of 15-20 WM and the rest pugs.
The goal of WvW is to put points on the board and WM does a fine job at that. Waha and co didn’t seem to mind to PvDoor when no one on BG or SoR was on, so I don’t see the problem.
You sound real salty.
lol
i found another interesting quote by JQ forum cheerleaders, this is what they described WM about 2 weeks ago, they are mad now…
Welcome back to T1 WM, big welcome from JQ today. Hope you’re just as excited as we are.
Those T2 tactics aren’t going to work in T1 btw, you guys looked rusty as hell.
I believe the score was JQ 5 and BG 2 for the zerg wipeouts . At first i thought they were the fake WM since they were not so WMish like but was told they are indeed the WM we know. They desperately need tuition.
Don’t you think he has a familiar sarcastic tone that we can see from your posts?
Instead of sharing some love to SOR and make tier1 much more competitive, those random ex-Ta guild, WM and Ruin decide to stack on one server to make a new HOD, so they can zerg and PVD more.
(unlike random ex-Ta guilds who think they are some sort of pvd god, WM is a great guild , so no offence nor discredit to WM though, people are still respecting you guys, just want to point out some facts)
when 1 people disagrees with you, you may say it is due to different view of things.
when 10 people disagree with you, you may say they are dumb that’s why they don’t understand your ideas, time will prove you right.
when 100 people disagree with you, you may say innovative idea will not be accepted at first, people will eventually agree with you once your brilliant ideas become famous and success.
But when nine out of ten, majority of people are opposed with you, you gotta know that, this time, YOU ARE DEFINITELY WRONG IN THIS.
If you cant win, join them just like one of the random guild – TDA did.
They were non factor guild in HOD, once they knew where those TA crew xfer to, they just blindly follow them so they can enjoy stomping “Noobs” like you all.
WvW is all about population and 24h coverage.
It is funny to see some people claimed that their pro guild/alliance is the reason their server won.Of course i wont deny that, a big alliance is like magnet that attract lots of smaller guild and people to join the server and therefore give the server a huge population increased( and of course organized guild>pugs), but you gotta give your server’s militia some credits.
Without the noobs/zergs/karma train, you think your elite guild mates are going to win the 24h match?
If so, why not try this on HOD now instead of transferring to another huge population and good WvW server like SBI?
Too good at this game?Tired of winning?
Seeking for challenge?
Then why not stay on HOD? We are pretty much outnumbered like 10 to 1 everywhere and the queue time is instant on every map, aren’t this what you pros want?
Seriously though, why don’t you guys just admit it that you guys couldn’t afford to lose?
It is no shame to say that, really.
