HoD sweeping in WvW

in WvW

Just a few things before I start… First of all I am from HoD, I guess that alone is a major talking point in here and I’ll probably get flamed for it. I have been in every WvW map during all times of day/night, Yes I work a full time job, yes I still choose to occasionally play nights into mornings (11pm-3-4am).

Now, after reading through this very long 5 pages of excuses, complaints and walls of text… I noticed one pattern. Everybody seems to have a solution of their own to this problem but every single one of them involves a handicap. This is not going to be solved by penalties or anything of the sort. This is a war, it’s meant to be 24/7 and it’s meant to be a battle of endurance not spurts of power. Other servers NEED to have players on at late/early hours or it will never be balanced no matter what kind of rules are imposed or concepts changed. It’s as simple as that.

Secondly I want to mention that I was on last night in particular before and after the WvW maintenance. I played all 3 borderlands maps between about 1am – 4am and we were by no means a huge overwhelming force. We had 2 commanders on leading people. As soon as we saw swords on the map we sent backup there to defend. We had siege going up. We had resistance, but it seemed to lack leadership. I saw at least 3-4 different groups of guildless/pug SBI groups running around doing absolutely nothing to help defend instead just doing quick run in, attack, run back attacks on our smaller squads or taking a camp JUST to claim it then leaving it there with the supply full while our yaks run free unguarded even. ET put up a great fight even late into the night (up until the reset they were pushing us back from briar) and then it seemed like no one decided to log back in. Sounds a lot like giving up to me…

I don’t want to get into an argument, My point is that other servers should take it upon themselves (As TA has clearly done so well and everyone hates them for thinking of it first and getting it done) Is create a team that covers ALL aspects of WvW. No I don’t think ANet needs to change the concept or make new rules or limitations at all, I think we’re 2 months into game release it needs time to settle and level out and people need to organize instead of posting nonsense on forums because you don’t like the way something is going.

And just because I thought this was funny from last night:
“All our camps are full… too many supplies not enough siege to use it on #HoDProblems”
