My personal opinion. Fighting BG and SOR for months in T1 is like playing in the Pro’s of any one sport. We may win or we may lose. The fact is We push each other and we are becoming so much better for having played each other. No other server will ever be able to beat any of the T1 servers.
It would be like a college team playing against the pro’s. I don’t mean to put any other server down. It’s just the fact. When you play against top notch servers constantly you become better.
We used to say in basketball, if you play with scrubs all the time you become a scrub. Some server in some other tier may have a lot of talent. But if they are playing scrubs constantly they become scrubs.
I am just getting bored playing BG and SOR. Would love some new match ups.
I actually think it’s great if SoR & JQ 2v1’s Blackgate and I hope it happens more often
It’ll be interesting to see what happens to SoR when JQ isn’t there. I know JQ still remembers what happened when they didn’t have SoR in their match-up last week…
Nothing new under the sun. Just to take the guessing part out, I wish you were here over the last matchups when the 2v1 was official against SoR because we actually asked for it.
The results can be viewed here:
http://mos.millenium.org/servers/history/41ok 1 I don’t think u get the fact that JQ nA coverage lacks in numbers compared to SOR and BG
2 ur asking JQ to give up towers for a chance to get towers or ppt
3 ur server mates insulted jq for the pass week calling them lapdogs boasting about 111k victory over them and saying they r nothing
Yes we generally just don’t like BG. We will 2v1 them every chance we get
Truth is in SG its really this simple
Mance: "who should we smash in the face??
Guild: “F” BG lets make them QQ
Mance: okay
Its really that simple.
No big devious Micro or Macro deep thought out strategy.
Seems the new random matchup is working as intended.
We understand if you do not wish to be embarrassed.
It has absolutely nothing to do with being ‘embarrassed’. It has everything to do with we like fighting in situations where we need the situational awareness. GvG is sort of a waste of time, because all it does is gauge e-peeeen, and luck, and really not much of the ‘skill’ aspect as to wtf to do when you have one zerg to your right, and another to your left. What do you do? Where do you go? Where should the CC’s be placed?? (type of thing) It just doesn’t offer that adrenaline rush that we crave.
As far as our ‘huge zerg’ is concerned, from our PoV you guys look like a massive zerg too. We enjoy running with our guild group, and cannot help it if militia tend to gravitate towards our commander – We just appreciate that they actually listen to our commander on TS and do exactly what we ask them to do and when. Having a competent militia following is most welcome, and I’m sure you would agree. Being the new kids on the block, it also gives us a chance to get to know the other guilds and people that we will be working with, as well as getting to know who has the good scouting calls, etc. Last night – we had roughly only 20-30 BT following our commander.
Hope you understand!
The fights have definitely been incredible, regardless! Keep em coming!
I agree with this poster in that. GvG is kinda boring. Sorta like dueling. Our guild has never gotten into that. We don’t really like to zerg, we enjoy small scale fights and tactics. sometimes randoms join and we ended up running 15-20. Just the nature of the “pin”. (Sometimes you have to zerg and not saying we NEVER zerg). Sometimes we run from big groups and sometimes we are like “nope – not running” and we go out swinging. Just the nature of the game. Nobody in our guild minds dying on the battle field. Rez up and go again. Yes we turn into bags. Often I might add. We also get far more bags then we give up.
I will say. If you constantly run 30-40+ people. You never develop any sort of small scale skill. You are used to just bull rushing people and killing them as they run as a result you end up less skilled as a whole. (Not pointing fingers at any one guild)
I noticed last night, that certain guilds expected JQ folks to run, when they stood the ground. The guilds from the other server got wiped time and time again. Was really embarrassing for them. In-spite of constantly having superior numbers.
Great fights tonight! Both in the GvGs and fights afterwards with JQ and BG in our Hills. Was tons of fun.
Had a blast playing vs you guys pro, was a shame I didn’t get to play on my thief though.
I guess my guardian needs love every now and then too.
As for SG, you guys can continue to act relevant when all you really did was add to the bag counts for both sides and end up losing your garrison for it. But hey, you guys don’t care about the hard work some people on your server did upgrading the place and walking all those yaks. I’m sure you guys will be more than willing to help your server rebuild that garrison. l0l
uh…we defended it for about 6 hours straight. pretty sure you guys took garrison after everybody logged off… I know we had it when I logged an hour after that scary 15 min post.
But your post did make me feel guilty. oh wait…
LOL, [SG] you act like you didn’t die over and over to us (while we were GvG-ing another guild I might add). At worst you were a minor annoyance, not even worth much thought. Give us a call for a GvG when you get relevant in WvW
Respect begets respect.
I’d like to thank [Pro] for the great GvG today, those are the types of fights that I love playing GW2 for. Tip of the hat to you guys.
Oh we did die to you guys as does everybody die to everybody else. However the difference is we had 8, you had what 3 full groups?
You guys are horrible players balanced by a metric ton of warm bodies. You say it was a minor annoyance yet you came to the forums to cry. We literally laughed when we found you guys GvG’n and said “He lets make them whine on the forums” 10 min laters. Whines on the forums. Was the single best thing all nights. We even said we would trade all of our points for that one whine post.
Were a hit and run guild. So talking in TS holding hands and kitten stroking each other on the forums is not really our thing, while we set up a duel is not really our thing. We will see you on the battlefield. That’s where it will all be sorted out.
Say what you will about “JQQ” only original T1 server. Not moving anytime soon. The other servers move around like yesterdays trash. Bringing the bandwagon guilds over to try and stick around. You know what happens. They leave , when they leave the server drops. I am glad SOR is winning, BG did not win with dignity, and will be happy to see them go, and they will go. Meanwhile “JQQ” will be sitting inT1 forever.
Not sure what happened or the original story. But if your guild is turning their back on you because you said some crap on the forums. Time to look for a guild who has a bit of sense of humor. I know if I properly troll in the forums my guild was give me props.
This is warfare. Seems to me they are giving us more tools closer to warfare. You have traps. You have siege. you have crap that hurts.
Last night I had a ton of fun. We had BG going after Bay with a huge zerg. We did great defense with AC while small havoc group was taking out their trebs. in between we got into small man skirmishes. We had to keep taking the supply camps in order to fund the Siege they were breaking of ours.
When I thought of WvWvW this is what I thought of. AC cars suck – but you learn to deal with them. Do other stuff.
To me its fun. I look forward to traps. Put traps around your keep that suck supply. So when they run up to spike your door with 4 Rams. You can’t really do it in 30 seconds and its slows the assault.
just saying sounds like a lot of fun!
I am a new thief, soon to hit 80. what are your thoughts on the new gear for thief?
Right now I run either clerics with Buff duration for small group/guild groups as support or I use Berserkers with + crit damage runes for Zerg play.
I am interested in trying the new sentinel gear with my ele.
I am more interested in higher damage while sustaining surviablity in small group play.
Current spec is 30 Air 30 Water 10 Arcane
Thoughts?
Thanks
Sorry not sure how to quote:
No I got the Jist of the thread. People whining about a couple nerfs like its the first MMO they played. Crying that the class is broken. Good players understand the basics of the game correct. They also understand the class is not broken, the class is fine. Good players adapt and move on. It’s been nurfed. The fact that Rtl and Mist are only two spells in a ton of other spells. If two spells broke the class for you. You are bad. If you think the class is now broken because of two spell changes you are bad.
Probably is people would go full zerk gear and have 14k Hp. and do okay, because they could escape. Not many other classes can do that.
Now you have to decide if you want to do a ton of damage or survive.
I am elementalist. I did not classify myself as a d/d d/s or staff only. I carry all of it. Spec for what I do most often 30 air 30 water 10 arcane. I have a mix of zerk and PVT gear.
I do fine. I may not be able to face roll 1v5. I do fine against most classes. Usually comes down to skill. If I am a better player I win, if they are they win. I don’t get into fights I cannot get out of with the current skills
You facerollers who would Rtl in and mash buttons and run when you start to lose are bad.
Regear- respec – move on . Or quit the game ..
now I know why I am told I am better then most ele’s…because most eles are horrible. Two skills change and the QQ’s of the class is broken. Maybe you are just bad. The class is fine.
You can still stomp while in mistform. which is all I really ever used it for. But if you can’t see how mistform is still great. Your bad.

I guess my guardian needs love every now and then too.
