Why are stuns the end-all-be-all?

In most pvp games stuns are king. Is it just the developing; can the current tech not handle anything better?

Population gives coverage. 10 warm bodies are worth 1 skillful player.

I have no opinion either way (other than its bad by design). I just figured that kind of meta was frowned upon.

And this subject has been beaten to death with different topic names.

And has never been fixed (if it can be).

Everybody can win though. The axiom explains it all quite well: If you can’t beat em, join em.

Has anet ever said if server collusion is allowed or not?

2v1 is essentially win trading. Not exactly something to be proud of having to resort to in order to win.

Maguuma has been fighting the same servers repeatedly in gold tier. We finally got a fight VS. Blackgate due to BG getting double-teams and a bunch of hard core groups jumping ship on BG. Only to have BG steamrolling both DB and Mag simply because BG has double the pop we do.

Overall WvW is more a measure of server population than server pvp skill. Certain top tier servers can just rely on zerg tactics to beat out a server like Maguuma or Dragonbrand which have half the population. Either some server population ppt balancing needs to happen or the high pop servers need to be grouped together. If this does not happen, the same servers will almost always dominate the WvW leaderboards making these tournaments pointless exercises with the results a foregone conclusion.

Please for the love of christ can we have slots saved for a minute or so if we crash out, this is the 4th loving time I’ve crashed out of an organized teq group and the world is full if I try to join back in. Such as having 20 or so slots saved for a minute for people who leave the zone for some reason.

So open all Spvp bags in a outnumbered WvW with all MF buffs rolling?

I heard somewhere that MF affected something new. I can’t seem to find confirmation as to what it is. Some people say all loot bags, some say only the environmental event boss chest, some say only spvp bags. Anyone know which it is?

The spvp rewards tracks are a nice idea, but I thought we could level them up in pve doing stuff in the respective region? Been trying to do Krytan reward track and have been killing mobs and doing events in bloodtide coast but my progress is still at 0%?

Sometimes the tooltip for Ranger Sic’ Em says it lasts 8s and sometimes it says it lasts 4s. Any ideas why this variation? No changes in traits, so that’s not the issue.

Is a thief being able to insta-stealth while under the effect from revealed from sic’ em a bug or a feature?

Personal Story: Forging the Pact bug (blocking progress)

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Managed to complete the quest after 5 bugged attempts by
1. Having 2 or more other people in group
2. Having them run ahead and kill all mobs in the vicinity.

The bug seems to be centered around if any NPC you are escorting has died between the ‘holdout’ section and the ‘talk to kekt’ section the game bugs and Trehearn fails to complete his script of taking the lead of the NPCs after you talk to kekt.

I am not sure if it can be resolved by just double checking that all NPCs are with you and not dead when you talk to Kekt, or if you simply need to keep everyone alive at all costs.

Hope this helps.
