Guild Wars 2

Meanwhile, TC, Magumma and SoS are saying “we don’t get any easy weeks. Our ability to care? non-existant”

All this roaming talk reminded me of this post:

Buzzcrave.6197:

Don’t listen to any of these bullkitten. Roaming is all about using cheese build. D/p thief/shatter mesmer/staff condi mesmer/grenade engi/stun warriors. And make sure to have a way to disengage incase you are losing. That’s all to roaming, bunch of dudes using kitten build and then chest thumping saying they are good. Jokes.

Even the game code knows we should be in the same match together.

I find it funny all the PvF from TC and SoR bashing each other and generalizing the people on the server with bad name when most of them are from NA prime time. We SEA/Oceanic are having fun with the match up, stop making us feel bad with each other when the one with issues is you NA prime timers.

In the SoR ts, we were theory crafting for reasons behind SEA timezone 1v2(on most days), this is what I came up with…. This is all based on findings about zodiac compatibility.

So Tarkus is a Horse and Waha is a Dog, and quoting from resources “Horse+Dog = A happy couple” Its been said that the Dog can be happy with the Horse who will let him get on with his causes in exchange for a little independence.(perhaps 1v2 cause??)

Indo is a rooster, which is not compatible with horses or dogs. They will only work together when absolutely needed. Also from resources, but unrelated, Indo is extremely conscious about his clothing and appearance.

So with he information given, we can assume Tarkus and Waha are a happy couple, who 1v2 SoR because they dislike roosters.

And for EU, Wrex is an ox. The Ox can also be prejudice, chauvinistic, proud, tyrannical, petty, critical, eccentric, bigoted, conservative, grumpy and on occasion violent…. be careful with that!

Thanks for your time everyone.. please add on!

Well,
JQ is still ticking ~220ppt atm and we’re trying everyhting we can to hold it.
It’s just a shame that that other server just doesn’t show up anymore. And i’m even more sad for those 2 new guilds they just absorbed this week, they must feel like kitten.

Cerialkilla.3571:

Ben I’m on every night, and I’m not a member of jq that gives up, It’s the inbetween sea and Na i believe because sea is good, and around 9pm central we start to gain a little back, but we seem to lose it right before that every night. Our transition from when one group logs off and the other doesn’t come on for a few hours is what hurts the most right now I think.

It’s easy enough complaining on the forums about something when things aren’t fine and dandy but I personally would rather see people who are wanting to be part of the solution instead especially when the going gets tough. So if you have ideas pop on Jadequarry.com and help out.

I do think this ability adds some strategy to WvW..

Not much its a pretty brain dead easy tactic. Even pug zergs can pull this off now. Call 3-4 eles, tell them to put on their focus, and step forward when its their turn.

What you lose is far more than you gain, and what you lose is having to care at all about where you place your offensive siege. If you have more Ele’s, and numbers, plop stuff down anywhere. But without this ability siege placement actually has some strategic complexity as you have to use your head to figure out a weak spot in a strcuture’s defense, where can I sneak up a cata where the defense can’t hit it. Or can we quick build a ballista maybe to take down some of their siege so we can get a ram up.

The zerg is usually going to win in the end anyway, but this speeds things up many times over and just helps a zerg overrun an entire map that much faster, and this is not desirable. Not for competition of a match, not for population in WvW, and certainly not for defending being worth a darn. Anet wonders how to get more people to defend or to reward them, first step would be allowing defenders, even out-manned to have the high ground siege advantage that should be inherent in this type of warfare.

The advantage to having your siege behind high walls is that the attackers can’t hit a lot of it. That is why you have a darn fort in the first place. This lets the attackers have the exact same advantage. I’m standing in the middle of an open field, but somehow my siege is entirely protected as well as being in the fort, doesn’t make sense.
