11 servers Full on EU ladder ? Anet read pls.

I see your problem here kBoom …

Well the problem is also the statements of certain former Arena-Net employees about the algorithm.
To be precise:

To be fair, Samuel Loretan is now working for Riot-Games, but it would be fair to tell the customer at least roughly how the purchased product works.

11 servers Full on EU ladder ? Anet read pls.

in WvW

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

>>I don’t understand the problem here. Having 11 serves full means 11 servers have roughly equal population. <<

Let me help you here: Having 11 empty bottles of equal filling does not makes them full!

Or let me explain the result of this awesome peace of engineering.

Our SFR-based Guild (30 people) had problems to get new members on the server since the server was closed for 3 month.

Consequence: Pay 1800 Gem and move to Gandara temporarily.
While transferring Gandara turned FULL and SFR turned OPEN.
Consequence: Those who transferred (over 20) pay again 1800 Gem and move back to SFR.
After the first people transferred back SFR turned FULL and Gandara is FULL.
So now we are stuck on 2 full server with some people who payed 3600 Gems for absolutely no service.

And that is a problem.

@Alchemists lab:
The event usually works direct after a new patch.
After that is prone to bug before the golem…..

@ Modniir’s: I wonder, thats something that BETA tester should find in 1 day.

Revenant needs more utilities options!

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

A Revenant has 4 choose 2 = 6 different options for utilities, healing-skills and elite-skills. (Just the combination of legendary stances)

For example a Guardian in SPVP has (25 choose 3)*5*4 =46000 different options for utilities, healing-skills and elite-skills

You don’t need to be a genius to see that Revenant is not customizable enough and way too predictable like that in SPVP.

And you only need one or two more utility and one more healing-skill option and for every legendary stance to change that dramatically.

Perfect solution to SW Amber farm

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

Yeah, had this gem shop idea some days ago too

Actually i don’t want A Net to Nerf this, but doing the actual event should be more rewarding then running around like chicken digging in the dirt.
I don’t mind if ppl get 100 or 200 bags/h but this amber chest farm seems almost brain damaging to me.

Is there an esports checklist?

in PvP

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

If this game mode would be that appealing that it would make it into esport, it already would have made it. Wouldn’kitten

IMO u would need to:
#1
First u would need a (much bigger) market research team to analyse scientifically what makes this game not that appealing to ppl.
(After every patch make a pull: Who would u rate the latest patch? What did u like the most? What would would u like to see changed in this game?)
U cant just guess those things. Or say: I like it this way so will the customers. It doesn’t work that way in the long term.

#2
Add more competition to the game. Make lots of rankings where u can compete in.
(Most Caps, Most Decaps, Best Kill/Death, most kills, most healing,…, most kills in one houre/week in WvW, Most towers caped, …., Fastest solo/2/3../5-player dungeon Runner, Highest Fractal runner,…)

3
Make a big “competitive MMO” upgrade with lots of new stuff, official GvG game mode, new graphics, and SELL it as extension to get the medias and peoples attention.
There is now way around this. This twitch thing does not work.

And again kicked from my own solo run...

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

Well, no matter what you think about dungeon selling:
Allowing players to harass other players by kicking them/scamming them is inadequate.

I don’t see whats wrong with selling dungeons as long is the price is reasonable (max 5g for a 3g path).
There is no reason to force ppl playing dungeons they don’t like because they need the tokens for the bifrost etc.
There is no reason to force ppl playing in groups if they don’t like to do so.

I don’t know why ppl always wanna force others to play a game the way they think it should be played. Its my choice if i want to play Arah Solo. Being rewarded adequately is also my choice.

ATM i get kicked every 3rd attempt to give Arah away.

New Solution: Party Leaders

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

Add:

1) The party leaders can only call-votes and not directly kick group members.
1a) Others can call a kick vote too but the party leader has a veto.
2) If the party leader DCs he will be kicked from the party after 5min and a new one will be selected.
3) Add a vote function to disable the hole leader system.

… and again, i got kicked by some tards trying to sell a solo dungeon and one of them had 16k app. And best thing is, they are still in the dungeon i soloed… nice!

How hard can it be to fix this party system?
almost every indi game has a better party system – even spiral knights!

More DC's after the last patch?

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

Hi,

I never had any problems with DC’s prior to the instance owner patch.
After the patch i DC every 3rd Arah solo run when trying to sell it.
Its quite annoying.

Anyone else experiencing that?

Subsequently i ask myself:
Does A-Net not want Dungeons to be soloed and sold anymore?

Dec. 10th Balance Preview - Updated Nov 6th.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: kBoom.3748

kBoom.3748

Elementalist:

Water V – Cleansing Wave. Moved to Master tier.
Water VIII – Arcane Abatement. Moved to Adept tier

Why?
You tamper with perfectly balanced and really nice to play builds if you do that.
Plus:
You will not get a bigger build variety.
You will not ballance something otherwise unbalanced.
(its surely not unbalanced now, and i don’t see it being unbalanced with the new traits.)

DPS Guardian.
Well, i think you do not see DPS guardian for 2 reasons.
1) People just don’t know/realize how much DPS a guardian can do.
2) They are just not that easy to play on a decent level then e.g. Warrior.
(A DPS Guardian needs to work more to stay alive. they don’t have a high intrinsic survivablity due to passive effects like warriors.)

@Wemil:

Yehh, I think it is time for a proper golem rush.
Yesterday ECL with “Wickie Pedia” made a small scale golem push on EB with something like 10 Omega and 20 Alpha. Well it served the purpose and they got us in a nice farming spot – but i dont think its a real golem rush if u have less than 20 Omega.

@Kain Yang.9352, UvL and AI:

Thank you very much for the opportunity to fight your alliance.
I really enjoyed it very much. The tension before the fight -getting the focus up – trying to read you opponent – aim with every step for the best for you team.
Its so much more intense than roaming (*1). Every advanced GW2 player should experience this.
We also found things to improve.
Keep it up! You did well!

Ps:
*1: Also roaming fights vs GD are intense too.

@Thyophelis.8035

On your screenshot are roughly 15-20 sIN.

We fought sIN multiple times today and some fights i did capture.
I just checked those and at around 11pm CET (22:20-23:10) sIN had 17+-2 guys and we had 11 to 8 guys.
(2 Guardians, 1 Mesmer, 3 Ele, 4 warrior and one new commander on guardian at 22.30)

Enemy numbers always looks larger than their real size.

Anyway, this is my first and last command on this “size” thing.

Have fun fighting. sIN is a good opponent and nice to fight against.

Before the last patch it was open almost every day on SFR.

After the patch i have not seen it open on SFR, Deso or Vizunah.
The most succseful attempts i have seen failed 40 sec before the end of the last stage.
The Problem was: 2min before the end Jonez starts to attack the Champion Wraith adds. And even 5 eles and 5 guardians with tome of courage did not manage to keep him alive in all the AoE of the Wraith. …

As has been said previously currently we do not have the strength to compete in tier 1…

Dont get me wrong but, there is one thing i dont quite get:
Instead of taking the week off, why dont you and JUG just go on EB and give Ruin hell?

Lets face the facts.
In the late evening:
1) Ruin are rather isolated on Blacktide.
2) They seem to focus on EB.
3) They only have one zerg(20-30 ppl) going from tower to tower. They are very predictable.
4) They dont have any specific battle order, they stand very loose and open.

I’m pretty sure: You could easily ambush them or snipe unguarded towers and keeps.
This week is your chance, pull them apart and farm them off. You only need like 15-20 good pvp players.
Don’t let yourself down or go simply off, fight them.

After my first replay was deleted by a moderator with the advice
“This is an English-language forum, please refrain from making posts that are not in English. Feel free to translate your post into English” here is my second try:

“although i am German, more then once in a while i tend to sing:

Sojus neruschimy respublik swobodnych Splotila naweki Welikaja Blacktide."

This, my dear moderator, is the 1944 national anthem of the Soviet Union. I did exchange “Rus” with “Blacktide”.

Translation:
An unbreakable union of free republics,
The Great “Blacktide” joined together forever to stand.

I hope its OK to quote a well known song despite the fact that its title is not English.
