it not bs, it just how i feel about it, just like how you feel on it. I just feel a game should not warrant stress levels like this, that all, lol.
You are insulting others because we do not feel this same way about this as you do. You come in here with your holier than thou bullkitten, and that is exactly what it is. No one cares. Go get a hug from your mom for being such a big boy, the rest of us crybabies will be here complaining about this mediocre company.
The game does work, i have no problem, and the minor of changing trait till they fix something is fine. Sometimes things are missed, it happen, grow up. that how i see it. There is not one game out there that plays perfectly, and that why things get added or remove. Besides, once again, it just a game, if your stress by a game, maybe take a breath.
No one wants to hear your holier than thou bs on this subject.
None, zip, nada. Your stupid little patch broke the game, you should revert back and rethink every stupid decision you made with these changes. You fixed kitten that was not broken, and ended up breaking everything.
This thread’s title was changed to “4 shotted”. That means there’s no issue, since the damage was spread across multiple hits. Now it’s just a L2P issue of using evades and stun breaks.
Give me a break. The guy was on me and hit me 4x in 1 second and downed me. I had absolutely no time to react at all, much less evade and stun break. You are talking out of your backside. The mods changed the subject, it was virtually a one shot, not literally. I could have lied and just said it was all in the same skill though. I put “one shot” in quotes for a reason.
A mod seriously changed my subject to read “four shotted”?! Wow. This all came at once, it was a one shot with four hits….all within nanoseconds of each other.
No doubt the mod who edited this plays a thief main. Amazing.
u just got outplayed idk why u even bother playing pvt u could do something like knight armor with cavalier trinkets and still be a tank and actually contribute
You must be trolling. I got outplayed? That would be true if I actually got a chance to do something….wasn’t even stunned…just bam…dead.
Did this happen in bay on ybbl? If so, it was a full glass thief. He was wearing force, night, and scholars. We all had a WTF moment when we saw him down you. We asked how much he hit you for, “18k.”
Well in however many hours in wvw I have been in to get to silver rank I have never been one shotted like that in the split second he jumped me and I was down. I have roamed a ton and faced plenty of thieves, typically I would lose to them because they could constantly stealth/heal, not because they took me out like that. But never anything like this.
Being spiked for 36k in a split second is absurd, never seen anything like that in wvw. Not saying it can’t happen, just not sure how I can play so long and face so many thieves and never experience it. Sounds like a fluke.
It was across 4 hits but they were all at once for the most part, the biggest being 9090. He jumped on me and I was down, period, gone. I have WvW’d enough to be in the silver ranks, I have NEVER died this fast, ever. This patch is broken, fix it.
EDIT: Mods changed this subject, it originally read “one shotted” because it all came at the same time. It just happened to be 4 separate hits. Ridiculous edit.
I don’t even play anymore because you just can’t roam without constantly being killed by thieves. So tired of having you down to 20% health only to have you stealth then reappear with full health again to keep fighting. It is complete bs and you know it. You should not be able to stealth during combat unless it is to escape. Even then it would be cheap, but not as cheap as it is now.
Nerf the kitten out of this class, period. No more in and out of stealth at will during combat, period. If you want to stealth to escape fine, but this whole dps/stealth/dps/stealth/stomp crap is absurd.
A guild group on Overgrowth [DC] actually running eotm with about 20 people rolling uplevel pugs lol. Never saw it before. Is this what guilds who can’t wvw do?
This is the 3rd week SoR got stuck with GoM and AR…who basically double team us even though GoM should not even be in our tier with their numbers. If this happens again kitten Arenamet and this game.
The prank would still be funny if you could turn it off. Why won’t they let us turn it off?
You are asking for too much, too many kittens in this playerbase defending this bs. Why it is such a irrational thing to request a toggle is crazy to me.
Its for one day. They never have a toggle because it’s ONE DAY.
kitten just turn your graphics down if its that much of an issue.
So let me get this straight…..you can tell me it is just one day as if it is not a big deal, but I cannot tell you it is just an off button as if it is not a big deal? Instead of putting in a simple command to turn it off I have to go through and change my settings then put up with the stupid arm thing I don’t want to se for a day. Is this the type of logic you practice daily?
Sometimes that simple command, isn’t so kitten simple. As a developer, I know this quite well. Stop saying it’s simple when you have no god kitten clue what their code looks like or how it actually functions on the back end.
You do have an “out” so to speak, just change your kitten graphics settings. Takes 30 seconds to change the settings, it would take you that long to flip open the screen and hit a freaking toggle.
OoOoOoooooOooooo a developer huh…citing your profession over the internet always convinces people.
Yup, for a day. One day out of the year. You’re more than welcome to take a break for the day if it’s that bothersome; the game will still be there after the change goes away tonight.
Because inconveniencing a large portion of your playerbase for only 1 day is better than putting in a simple command to turn it off. Don’t go into business anytime soon.

It’s not irrational. It’s all the other crap that’s been added to the various requests.
BS. All I complained about was it was annoying and still was getting attacked by the “cool kids”.

you know what….I don’t even care about the plane crash thing vs the apr.fools prank.
some have a twisted cense of humor (as I do) some don’t. unless you lost someone on the plane or at the very least know someone that lost someone on the plane kitten it is a joke get over it…..
what I find annoying is a game that I PAYED for I cant enjoy because of a lame prank by the company.It was funny for 5 min.after that…..extremely annoying. no reason not to have the abilty to turn it off.
And these white knight holier than thou blowhards just can’t get this simple view.
I don’t think many people really understand the idea of April Fools’ Day. Maybe they’ve never played pranks before? Or maybe they’ve only had them played on them and they’re bitter?
Anet status:
April Fools’ = success
I laughed about it. No fun allowed I guess?
Maybe you don’t get the simple fact April fools day jokes dont last all f’ing day. We over it, we now just want to play the game in its working state, wtf is wrong with you people that you can’t get that.
I don’t care if this dude’s story is legit or not, NERF THIEVES yesterday. I am close to quitting this game because of this overpowered bs of a class. I feel sorry for you people who need to play cheese specs with this class in wvw.
No class should be able to attack, stealth when you attack them back, heal and clease while stealthed, then come out of steath and reattack you, rinse, repeat until you are dead.
I have no problem with thieves having escapability, none at all. My problem is in and out of stealth fighting bullspit. Enough, peroid. I don’t know of any other game that allows such crap. They should hit like a truck, they should be able to sneak around, they should be able to poof and escape AFTER their kill or to get out of a tough fight….but they should not be able to repeatedly re-stealth in the middle of a fight to heal and cleanse over and over, it is absolutely absurd.
/rant off….let the flaming begin
How would you feel if they left all the mechanics the same except you don’t lose target when they go in stealth?
(technically this would be an auto-reacquire of target after leaving stealth, so (like now) you can’t fire directly at stealthed target).
I would take anything at this point, theives are stupid op. If you play this style I fel sorry for you, obviously you can’t play without easy mode advantages. no respect at all, never. When you win a fight it is 100% because you are exploiting an overpowered class.

What gives the impression that the SOR wants to get to t1?
I can’t speak for all, but i know i don’t want it.
I haven’t heard one person, in fact we don’t like where we are right now. Need to take it back down a notch. These T5 peeps are too elitist for me anyway, rather just have fun.
What T5 server are you talking about CD or IoJ both got their WvW population destroyed by being in T3.
Be that as it may there’s still a whole Texas kitten load more of them than there are of us. They outnumber us AND have better coverage yet we still remain competitive. I am kitten proud of SoR.
What a load of bull. You guys have similar coverage and numbers. Why do you think the scores are so close? Don’t tell me you actually think it’s because of skill? Some SoR guy mentioned they queued 3 maps last week on reset. Last time CD and IoJ saw anything close to a 3 map queue was during the tournament before both servers’ guilds jumped onto the T2 bandwagon. Interesting tidbit. Mag with a 3 map reset queue absolutely steamrolled both CD + Ebay and would have crushed IoJ too if they were in the same matchup.
Whatever makes you feel better. All I know is both CD and IOJ run their kittens off if they don’t outnumber us. I was so not impressed with either of you. You win this based off pure numbers, nothing else. Yes we fielded tons of people over the weekend, but you guys can do the same 24/7, we simply don’t have the coverage on weekdays.
And the majority of your blob sucks, catch them in an even fight and they barely even know what to do. You can have this tier, looking forward to moving back down. FC gave us better fights than you.
SoR is an awesome community, why we have so many haters is baffling. I wouldn’t be talking this crap if the hate wasn’t coming out all over the place.
Since the change to stability, I read post after post of people on the blobby servers raging because they lose all their stacks of stability in 0.2 seconds to the big bad pug blob.
Well, I got a revelation for you!
Here in the lower tiers, we have constant 5 – 10 – 15 man fights were stability still work perfectly.
When you get tired of playing the pirate ship blob game, come visit us for true WvW :P
You do realize you are telling them to all transfer down which will ultimately lead to blobs on your server as well….right?
You people dont seem to understand that stealth is broken as it is.
I understand that if u bomb aoe or spam guard staff 1 to a place thief is in stealth, ofcourse it hits
As i said Ranger longbow rapid fire. It still targets you if you are in stealth even if you dodge in stealth
Necro axe skill 2 ghastly claws still hits you 8 times even if you have stealthed before 1st hit and dodge it, rest of the hits will still be succesful.
So i think that doesnt count as survival does it?
Aswell as rangers see where the arrows go they know exactly where you are moving because they still have long skill that doesent lose target.
As i said it keeps target even if you have stealthed long ago before the first hit and dodge
Until you cannot stealth/attack/stealth/attack/stealth/attack me until I die I don’t car if they nerf you into non-existence.
I’m fairly new to WvW, but a long time GW2 player.
However, I was under the impression that the other servers players were fairly anonymous – which made it very odd when, last night, a player started private messaging me giving me abuse because apparently I had killed him when I was part of a “blob” and that I sucked, and should come and meet him one on one where he would teach me a lesson. He kept telling me that my server’s “blob” was too big, and that I should stop them from doing this style of play.
How exactly he thought I was going to be able to influence all the players on the server I was part of, I don’t know.
However, my question is – how do players on other servers know my name (I thought it just showed my class and server)? Is it normal they then contact you to give you abuse? And then.. is my server bad for having a group of players following a commander as he runs around taking castles?
Just point and laught at the guy nerdraging because he died in wvw,
lol who thought rapid fire or whatever it’s called was a good idea? all i see these days are power rangers everywhere. Maybe ANet should nerf that LB range or something. Seems like no one wants to fight, they just want to sit back and face roll from 1800 range….other than trolling is there any real reason to play power ranger?
What do you play?
The reason to play a power ranger? Because someone might want to. Why do you play your class? Cry more.
Longbow with air/fire sigils, piercing arrows trait, rapid fire with proper positioning is as effective zerg aoe dps as there is. No we don’t bring utility to the zerg but you still need to kill. There are ranger builds more suitable for the zerg than glass bow.
aha you reap what you sow. none of us will ever go back, not with all that useless drama you made us go through. rott in tier 8 forever you guys deserve every bit of it especially the crap pve guilds bye and good riddance
SoR has one of the best MMO communities I have seen……I am extremely happy you are no longer part of it. Enjoy wherever you are, and please stay there.
IF you lose a keep to 5 catas like that without trying to counter it…I think thats your own fault.Theres lots of ways to counter them.you failing at them doesnt mean it’s bad game design.You also obviously havnt played the first year in wvw where it took about double the time it takes now to get anything down…and no it wasnt fun
Alright dude, I am bowing out of here. You guys win. It is all my fault our keep was taken in 5 minutes. You are right, game mechanics have nothing to do with it.
You shouldn’t be able to just set up 4 superior cats and melt reinforced walls of a keep in minutes, it just cheapens the entire experience. Even if you have people to defend you barely have enough time to set that defense up. I really wish this could be made more of an epic experience than just a constant game of keep/tower flipping.
heres an idea, get in ts, scout an objective and build defensive counter siege, and alert your team if its being attacked, OMG what a insane idea right? Now call me crazy but I have actually seen this work oOoOo
You’re so cool dude, you told me just like you said you would in your sig!!
Just happened, swords on fully upgraded keep during this hour which is not at all prime time for my server. We get the few people to the keep that we could….outer already down and inner is already taking damage. Within minutes they flood in and it is gone before we can mount any kind of defense. If this is the kind of “epic” siege rvr/pvp you want enjoy it, I want something more. If you cannot understand why a keep that took several hours and supplies to upgrade should not be able to be taken in 5 minutes then we have nothing to talk about.
wow you lost an upgraded keep during off hours, that never happens to anyone does it? Get over it dude, its not the end of the world, it sucks, its frustrating, it happens to every server at some point, but its not the end of the world. Recap, rebuild, go attack the enemies territory. WvW is an open battlefield, your supposed to attack stuff, and be attacked. If it doesnt meet your pre concieved expectations by all means feel free to take a break or play something else, you have the freedom to do so. I mean really do you expect the enemy server to just not attack you or bring less people/siege because its not your prime time? My server always gets hit during our off hours, sometimes we hold our stuff, sometimes we dont, its not the end of the world.
Listen dude, because obviously you have a thick skull. First of all I don’t care to hear you repeat your opinion I disagree with 100% over and over, move on. You don’t know me other than the fact I felt the need to make one thread about this, equating that to me thinking it is the “end of the world” is moronic. I still love the game, I still play the game, I simply think it can be better. Unlike some people (that would be you) if I think something can be better I speak up, I don’t just accept the status quo as “it is what it is”. Because just maybe there are people who agree with me, and there is, and this will be looked at in the future. Just because I complain about one thing in the game does not mean I am a sky is falling player. So get over yourself, because you have the same thing I do….an opinion. You are not unique here, and you are not right just because you say you are. Making this out to be some irrational complaint is absurd and you discredit yourself by continuing to do it.
I feel a fully upgraded keep (that took hours to upgrade) should not be able to be taken by a few catapults within 5 minutes. Why this is such an absurdly ridiculous and unrational opinion to you baffles me. I already got over this fact, the only reason I am still here is to make sure you know how unreasonable you truly are.
You shouldn’t be able to just set up 4 superior cats and melt reinforced walls of a keep in minutes, it just cheapens the entire experience. Even if you have people to defend you barely have enough time to set that defense up. I really wish this could be made more of an epic experience than just a constant game of keep/tower flipping.

Some of the builds are downright overpowered 1v1, the burst is just stupid at times. L2p it and troll in wvw roaming. Thieves and mesmers just make wvw not fun for everyone else.
Folks, I’ve been on the TC server since the day I started GW2 and have really enjoyed WvW up until I came back to the game a few months ago. I’m primarily a roamer with either myself or 1 other person and it just seems these days that WvW is completely full of zergs. Is there no place for the solo roamer anymore on a T1 server?
As a solo roamer, would it be best for me to change to a different server? What are the pros/cons of doing so?
T1 is just about running around avoiding the other zergs and flipping keeps/towers over and over. The lower tiers are not much better, but at least they allow for some roaming.
