The reason that they added the stability patch and aren’t going back is because they had to compensate for HoT elite specs. Now every class has ONE or MULTIPLE forms to CC individuals or groups where as before that was not the case. If they go back to the old stability you will be stun locked for days.
It would be much appreciated it they took away the WvW tournament vendor then otherwise its like saying we might or might not continue to make legendary weapons – which is currently the case in PvE. Its somewhat insulting. Its not like getting first second or third gives your server anything other bragging rights tbh.
This is what got me to continue to “compete” in WvW and actually focus on making a guild specific towards WvW but now its just a weekly cycle with no real purpose other than loot bags and bragging rights.
It’s been about 3 years since the last WvW tournament and can honestly say that I officially lost all hope. I was told there were no longer going to be any more tournaments due to all the problems and unbalancing involved with how WvW has become. Seeing that its been over 3 YEARS since the WvW tournament vendor has been lolling around. Why the tease anet you can brutaly be honest and just say its not coming I’m okay with that. Or at least a date release but waiting 3 years for anything is subpar. I think its time to say goodbye to WvW and move on to sPvP for actual competition.
In all of the 4 camps this skill does not work. For whatever reason it shoots but disappears right away and does not hit if the ground is uneven.
I would suggest leaving gold tier alone, tiers 1-2. Everyone is forced to become a tier 1 server whether they like it or not. I don’t like this simply for the fact that roaming isn’t really viable anymore. Its all about the zergs. the population balance was only a problem for tiers 7 and 8. They are the ones whom I think should have had the only merges.
All I’m saying is that if you want thread matchups in here it will evidently turn into, what you called gw2wvw to be, a clusterfest. I’m sure you nor anyone else wants that.
This was just a thought I had recently come up with but like anything new added into the game it can always go wrong cough* the first intro to DBL before the remake cough *. It would just be nice to have some encouragement to those who are hesitant in trying to tag up or those who have no motivation to want to tag up.
It needs to depend on how many people the commander has in his squad. We don’t need 50 people running tags while they are flipping camps just to get better rewards.
While I agree, I can see this being easily abused. Like they’re still running 50 people but have 5 commander tags and 10 people in each squad, but all actually following just one person.
The threshold doesn’t have to be 10 people in one squad it can be higher than 10. Now that we got introduced to a new server which = more people seeing 10 people as one group is kind of rare but still possible. I would say something like 20 or 25 something along those lines.
Seeing more than one tag grouped up isn’t all that uncommon. With your example of having 5 tags following one main tag is actually kind of a good thing. The other tags can be used strategically. BLUE hits tail, YELLOW ranges, RED is melee, etc. but I digress.
There is no harm in having more than one tag around a main tag but I do agree with not having 10 people as the limit which is why I suggested it to be higher such as 20 or 25.
There could be a threshold as to how many people the tag needs in squad before any of those “rewards” start to be applicable. Because people can just tag up for no real reason and have no one in squad and still have some benefit of the tag reward with no real effort put into WvW.
Hard work should be rewarded and like mentioned before, tagging up is not easy especially since this merge of server where its only 50 v 50 and people expect you to keep going even after you wipe or win.
Well one thing I would probably suggest as far as rewards go would be something like: getting more badges of honor or proof of heroics to get more siege without it being too costly on the tag itself. Seige itself isn’t very cheap (for superiors anyways) and WvW alone doesn’t really give a lot of coin since it was introduced to us. Allowing tags to get more proof of heroics would make acquiring siege itself a lot less of a hassle.
There’s been a lot of PvF under very thin guises and drama and stuff.
While I of all honesty would like matchup threads again, I understand if Arenanet doesn’t want to deal with the harassment issues.
if you want matchup threads there is a website aimed towards that goal exactly. Here is the link to that website if you are interested in talking with or against other servers who do WvW. http://www.gw2wvw.net/ just go to the forum page and you should be fine from there.
I had an idea on what would make people actually “want” to tag up for WvW. I have seen this from experience but a lot of people refuse to tag up even though they have that capability. Excuses usually come up in the form of: tired, not experienced enough, there is no motivation, etc.
This can be addressed by giving some form of incentive for people to want to tag up. Although, this isn’t a big issue now since the merges it would still be nice for commanders to get some special reward for doing what they do because trust me when I say “commanding is not easy”
The reason I bring this up is because when I noticed that there was an incentive for doing WvW (reward tracks) a lot of people gave positive feedback on that as well as repopulated the WvW game mode. I’m pretty sure this was a “drive” to give people a reason to WvW. There should also be a drive to give people a reason to tag up.
As far as the rewards go I’m sure the devs can think of something unless the general public has an opinion on this. I want other peoples opinion on this as to whether this would be a good idea or bad idea.
I hope whatever they push out for WvW makes everyone happy….
They just need to remember why people go to WvW. Get back to the basics.
1. Allow for large group fights. This is the unique part of WvW.
2. Give roamers something to do. Whether it be escorts, camp flipping, small fights, etc
3. Remove EotM. This is a population killer.Above all, get rid of the PvE junk. There is a whole different part of the game for that.
I disagree on the population killer part. but the rest yes I agree
WvW needs legendary armor track reward = 1st step to fix WvW
Would be nice to have but definitely not vital for WvW to be “better”
About 30 people in my WvW guild left the game because:
1)Dragon banners became a thing. Banners just in general really shouldn’t be a thing except the ones that warriors use. On that note
2)** Break bars is a PvE thing. What is it doing in WvW for players who acquire banners?
3)The new borderlands became a thing… no one likes a vertical maze to fight in if you can’t find each other to fight (vertical map in PvE = good; vertical map in WvW = bad… really bad do not bring PvE to WvW it is meant to be separate for a reason. Basically if you wouldn’t do it for sPvP don’t do it for WvW, there is a reason why that water map in sPvP was removed.
4) Invisible rings from dragon hunter’s long bow 5 shouldn’t even happen. That should be considered a glitch.
5) Finally, remove PvE from WvW.
I’m sure by now the devs know that there is something wrong in WvW that they need to change if there are this many people posting on here.
These are just a few things that I can think of off the top of my head. Please bring WvW back to its former glory.
Not anymore I’m not. GoM moved me over to their server now.
I’ll look into Kaineng once I get a response from GoM. They messaged me and I may or may not go there.
Alright rather than having the server transfer paid just tell me which server would want an extra tag. Wasn’t really expecting this to be as complicated as it turned out to be. Ill get the gold enventually. @Silverstone CD is T5 it isn’t one of the servers I’m looking at.
I’m basically looking for a medium to low sized server as long as there is a single server wide voice com. Avoiding big blob constant 40+ man servers which is why I mentioned T6-T8. As far as the situation goes with paying for my own transfer that may not happen. WvW isn’t really profitable and I literally don’t do anything while in game except WvW. If I pve its because I want to WvW better, A.K.A. ascended gear.
For now if people are relying on me to pay for my own transfer that will have to be delayed for who knows when. When someone lets me know about wanting some help in their server ill be waiting in my current T8 server soloing towers.
I am NA prime time. I come from a guild that usually fights double our numbers and we are only about 10 of us on average. I am getting an alt into a different server mainly to help the server. Server has to have a server teamspeak or something similar (server wide voip is what I mean for lack of better words) otherwise its a deal breaker for me.
My alt is in a Tier 8 server atm but sadly the server I chose doesn’t use teamspeak (not saying which server just out of respect) so I moved him over there for nothing in hopes of helping command. All it is is pugmanding in T8 from what I know so unless a tier 8 server has voips that the entire server uses rather than having multiple voips ill gladly help.
To answer your question: I’m just looking for fights but if a server is aiming for a certain spot PPT wise I wouldn’t mind helping with that. Like I mentioned before I come from a zerg busting guild so I know my way around.
I am looking for a new server to command in. This is my alt account. My main account is in T5. For me the sweet spot is T7 or T6. I don’t mind commanding in T8 but getting people organized in that server is a little more work. All I ask for is to have the transfer fee payed for and I will gladly command for your server frequently.
As long as you have a server teamspeak or equivalent that you use I’m game to help your server out. I have had this game since launch and want to go to a server where killing a zerg actually means something. If you want more info or want to contact me about any interest send me an in game mail message or let me know here. Cheers!
