Guild Wars 2

Some people dont have sigils, why not remove them? some people dont have runes, why not remove them? whats the point of trinkets, i dont have on my character, why not remove them? ohhh why do we need stats on our armors and weapons, just remove them? OP, please play sPvP and stay away from WvW. There you go problem solved. Your Welcome!

Screenager.7804:

Afterlife have finally completed our transfer period and will be entering battle this reset. For what we’ve seen this week great fights lots of facing off against big numbers and we had a great time last night. Pretty even fights all over the map in deso BL.

Sacrx.6721:

On the note of week. I hope deso will stop slacking and focus viz more in offpeak instead of trying some strange stuff.
.

NEVA! yea foul beast I shall best ye in battle and smite the spawn of thou guild in the fields of ruin that are wuvwuv….
ah the RP its all coming back… cant wait to meet you guys in battle / get roflstompped

Over stacking on a stacked server is not the best thing to do. Now the opposing server needs to be stacked or perhaps overstacked to beat an overly stacked server which didnt need to be overstacked in the first place. welcome to Stack Wars 2.

why not remove stealth from the game completely? Thief’s are the only class who has been nerfed so much since launch to the point that now they became a joke. Well with this nerf, i would end my days in gw2 for good. RIP Thieves. RIP GW2

ok thanks guys, we can close this thread now.

i have 5 characters, 4 of them are lvl 80 and the other one i use as a bank. my question is can we have more than 5 characters per account? if so, how? Thanks

its our turn to night cap :P

Isaac.6041:

If you have any suggestions on how to be more effective or how to survive during skill lag, please share!

Just some ideas:

1) Toughness/Vitality gears
2) Instant activation skills (that still lag but at least they’ll activate sometimes)
3) Dodging frequently?
4) Auto-attack?

roll a thief and roam around the terrain all by yourself. Problem solved, no more skill lag. Your Welcome!

the end of culling and ‘the start of skill lags’

im glad that you guys are having fun in tier 8

Some guilds will be transferring off SFR this week, they’ve kept a tight mouth on where they’re going though.

And we have 2 major US guilds comming in,plus their followers .We have to keep a tight mouth from wich server are they though

wow thats a great news. im so happy to know that SFR will be the next night cappers of Tier 1 of EU. Keep those night cappers coming!

Deniara Devious.3948:

To OP: I also play on Desolation and I have been doing the Quaggan events alone, but it would go faster if I had a friend. Want to join my roaming group?

Ayna

The Krait are now harder and you just cannot stand still and face tank them all. But the events are still very much soloable.

Sure, please add me. We can roam around the map flipping camps, sentry guards, completing pve events etc. Thanks

Catisa.6507:

full beserker glass cannon thief and I still solo it. It is a bit more difficult because of the nerf on omnomberry pie. I have to watch my health more closely and even sometimes cut short a daggerstorm to heal because i no longer get insane healing from it.

Yes im a full beserker theif too. Even with daggerstorm my health goes down quickly especially when there are 10 or more kraits at the centre of the island. Now what im doing is, im pulling kraits away from the circle and bringing them closer to the veteran quaggans so they can fight while i dps from the back. Even with that, the spawn rate of the kraits are insanely fast everytime i kill one krait another 3 or 4 kraits spawn. making it impossible to cap.

i guess everytime we need to take this camp we need to call our zerg for a hand

long story short, before the last patch i used to easily solo the quggan camp (the island in the middle of the boderlands) with my berseker thief quickly and without any problems. Post patch, now it requires more than 2 people of all lvl 80 exotic/ascended gear to capture this camp. It has come to a point where i dont even bother going there anymore because of the insane spawn rates of the kraits. Everytime i kill one krait another 3 spawns. And the veteran krait with all those knockbacks and insane damage just makes life harder. who else is having problems taking this camp solo?

Intigo.1653:

This Turk guy sure is affected. Such hilarious claims.

Nah i dont care. Its not my problem, its Anets.

tagnut.8621:

I propose a new T0 tier. Just one server in it – Viz – where they have no opponents and can show off their leet door fighting skills 24/7.

Then the rest of us can get on fighting as intended.

Viz vs Gate vs Wall….interesting line up.

my apologises i only saw half of them, correct due to culling. WoW 40 golems all together, we didnt have half that number of ppl on foot in EB. Well done Viz, you guys have taken PvDoor to the next level. Must be pride of that.

not accurate infos. there were exactly 53 alphas and 17 omegas. counted them + about 120 people to escort them including 50 people that transfered from jade sea overnight to help us.

50 golems, 100 golems, or 1000 golems. What difference does that make when there is no one in the opposite server defending?

PS, why would people from Jade Sea care about Viz? they are totally different servers. i believe you’re just trollling

06.03, there ticking the 500 points again all about is soon green green.

Psssst guys, now iam solo on ur bl defending (chough) Hills..U dont need ur 6 golems really i am alone here:p

Now make that 620+ tick to Viz. I love you Viz those 15 alpha golems and 2 omegas looked so great against doors.

seriously everywhere i go i counter SFR zerg of 40+. You guys are like ants no joke. The only reason why you guys are winning because of sheer numbers nothing more. Desolation has the best quality pvp players in EU server. When it comes down to small skirmishers (5-10 ppl), Deso wins 90% of the times. If we have half of SFR, we will be spawn camping both SFR and Viz at the same time. Until we get numbers we will lose the score but not the war.

In 5 vs 5 you will pick utility’s like
bull charge / frenzy/signet of rage for warrior
shadowstep / basilik for thief … etc
why would i use banner regeneration for warrior, why would i use hp on rally
Why would i use steal grant " might/fury and swiftnes to ally’s
why would i use Heal on dodge ?
And for real why on earth i would pick traits like increase revive speed.
symbols on guardian? (for 5 players ? ) nah
in 30 or 70 or 100 pvp , your bull charge /basilik/ signet of rage will matter 0
and “the most skilled player (in 5 vs 5)” will be another sheep on the map

Best regards,

FYI, i dont do any of that. But thanks for trying,

Not a teamplayer, are you?

i said NO to:
‘In 5 vs 5 you will pick utility’s like

You have to admit you’re not going to use the same utilities as you would in an organised group fight, different situations call for different builds.
I run around with the same utilities, but then again, i’m lazy and don’t go running looking for small-scale fights, I like my monster smashes.

In 1v1 situations i tend to use frenzy, bull charge more. Signet of rage is good for zerging but i will chose Battle stand in small scale battles. i will always use Shadow step on my thief no matter if its 1v1 or 5v5 or 5v50. I agree, it just depends on the situation.

Sure, if Deso wins, it is because they are the best, but if they lose it’s because they are less numerous.
Did you said sore loser?

No, No and No. I didnt say we are the best server, i said we have the best pvp players in EU. on so many occasions when we had 2 ppl and sfr had 5, we took them down fair and square without losing any causalities. im not saying SFR is crap server, but you guys rely heavily on numbers NOT in skills. But then again, why do you need skills when you have sheer numbers. True?

Guys dont trash talk against any server since it wont help your sever in the long run. Reputation is the key to every success. Whatever Viz is doing, is working perfectly fine for them and this is what makes them what they are. For that reason they are number 1 server in EU. And they will remain at the top until Deso, or SFR gets NA or Oceanic guilds. For me, i dont care about the score anymore. Even if we have 0 tick ill be still playing because i wvw for fun not for the score.

looks like they made some minor changes to the maths. according to millenium Elona was suppose to remain in t1 but they dropped down to tier 2. That surprised me alot since im on Desolation server.

Probably not as much as it surprised us – can you imagine the confusion on our TS after reset? :P

LOL i dont want to imagine :P. Even us, we were confused.

looks like they made some minor changes to the maths. according to millenium Elona was suppose to remain in t1 but they dropped down to tier 2. That surprised me alot since im on Desolation server.

i havent touched FotM for over a month. i know 30 ar was the max, but how do you get 35 ar now? is 35 max ar you can get now? thanks

Alot of my friends and I, have noticed an increase of rarer drop loots in WvW after the last patch. Yesterday, i got my first ever exotic drop in WvW from an enemy player. Where as normally i would get 1 or 2 rares every second day or so. With this extra rewards, this will encourage many more people to play WvW. With this positive change, we dont have to worry about the cost of repairing our armors. I believe this is a positive step for Anet and i hope better changes and additions will come for WvW in the near future. Once again i want to thank Anet for this long waited change for rewarding their WvWers. Peace

why would anyone leave their monthly achievement to the last minute or even last day? you had one entire month to do it, even casual players could have done it in the first week.

for pvpers and wvwers this kind of title has no meaning. this shows that you like to pve nothing more. Plus when did this title ever become prestige?

DeathPanel.8362:

It’s very doable with full team of 80s with good gear and experience.

You just need to set minimum standards for teams going forward.

are you serious? this is a level 35 dungeon not 80. have you tried running AC with a level 35 alt with lvl 35 gear? then come back to me and say its npt hard then.

Vinny.6924:

Reason for this: they are going to let us use achievement points to obtain items and other things in the future. Enjoy the 13th currency type Guild Wars has to offer!

i hope this never happens.

i 100% agree with the OP, now we can have 24+ zerg yes zerg hit our towers and keeps without any swords now. This will encourage more PvDoor! poor implementation in my books. Bring back the old 5 man swords.

They should removed the item from gw2 for good now, i dont see any difference between nerfing or removing. Now its nerfed, i dont see the point buying this item anymore.

Before this patch we were getting 25 achievement points for every daily completion (imo was alot) but now its 5 lousy points. Whats the catch?

vespers.1759:

laurels are out of control. i suppose the idea behind this is to keep us playing by requiring us to complete a daily every day to try and keep the time required to get ascended slightly less insane?

assuming you get a laurel every day it will take:

30 days for amulet
80 days for the other two ( also ectos because those are tacked onto everything)
rings can be done in fotm more easily. (if you don’t do fotm i feel extra bad for you)

completing 3 monthlies can take 30 days off which leaves a total of 80 days (assuming you do it every single day).

now 80 days might not be so bad (imho it is) but consider that many people use multiple gear sets and have multiple 80s. i myself have 3 80s. i only use two and those two each have 2 sets of gear. that means i’ll need 4 amulets, 8 rings and 8 earrings. i don’t even need to do the math to start laughing (even if i get rings from fotm)

is it really logical to require us to play each day for upwards of a year to get our gear? i’ve played grindy mmos, but this is just in a whole new realm of crazy.

PS: this is ignoring all the nice infusions at 20 days each.

Within couple of weeks gw2 will be dead. what are you talking about getting your gear in one year?

i think the OP is being sarcastic.

worse* not worst. I know what you mean, this patch has officially killed Anet. They nerfed everything. We now have internal cooldowns on food buffs. Everytime i see a zerg in wvw i drop down in seconds. i cant even do my dungeons on warrior anymore because of this nerf.

now we have cooldowns on food buffs? are you serious Anet? what are you thinking? i needed those extra stats just to stay alive against zerg fights, now i cant even do that. time to play other games now. G’day Anet

Novalight.7568:

Send someone to tag the siege now and again, doubt Anet will change anything anytime soon.
And yeh, it’s annoying when you spend lots of time and gold only to come back and see that none of the randoms that ventured through even bothered to tag the siege. Or use it. Or report enemies beating on the gates :P

its not about money or gold, but the supplies you need to build them. We ran up and down from supply camps trying build them since at the moment we only had 4 people in the entire map.

Xsorus.2507:

PVE it’s fine, even in structured it’s fine to some extent.

However in World vs World, I can flat out say..Stealth needs to be changed.

Now I know some people are going to be like “Oh look someone died in pvp to a stealther and now is whining”

Actually, its the opposite..I just got done playing my Thief in world vs world…and frankly i’m disgusted how easy it is to play the class out there.

Not only am I able to stomp on pretty much everyone I come across solo…I can frankly attack large groups of people with ease, and either kill a lot of them, or get away whenever I want.

There is no real disadvantage to playing the class at all….

So as a thief, I’m asking Anet to actually nerf stealth in world vs world..Make it somewhat challenging at least..

it so easy to counter or kill a thief. this is more L2P issue more than anything else.

i am sick of tired of siege weapons de-spawning at a time when you need them the most. i’ll give you an example what happened earlier today. I was at Elona Bl’s, the entire map was pretty much blue and we only had one tower in the south-west side, closest to our spawn. The tower only had reinforced walls, the reinforced gate was almost done 95%. And mind you we were outmanned. Earlier we built a catapult and an arrow cart behind the gate and 2 arrowcarts at the top. we went to flip some camps and we had some fights more like skirmishes with Viz and Elona groups. Out of nowhere a Viz zerg comes and starts attacking our tower (the only thing we hold in the entire map). So we all go inside our tower, horrified and shocked to find out all of our siege weapons disappeared , vanished – gone. i was about cry with frustration and i didnt take us long to realise our final hopes of defending our tower against 20+ zerg was gone.

One thing i dont understand why does siege weapons despawn when you only have lets say 5 siege weapons in the entire map. imo this is so wrong, ill understand siege despawning when you too much or when you over cap but when u have couple i dont understand that. I hope A-net looks into this matter so that siege weapons wont despawn when you’re outmanned or have one tower and/or couple of siege weapons in the entire map.

Who else gets frustrated when this happens?

i stopped running fotm for the following reasons:
1) bad loots, not worth the time or effort. i rather do cof then fotm for more gold making.
2) i have 20+ rings with stats i dont even like
3) with over 8k fract tokens i only have 2 skins (Staff and Shield) after running fotm 26 and 30 dailies for more than 100 times.
4) its long

“Hoots.9564:

VoTF is the jewel of all the guilds leaving sos so far, will be interesting to see where they land.

That’s still assuming they do leave. Going with the current rumormill though, and say they do transfer, SoR makes the most sense to me as the best destination in the NA bracket, with a big maybe for Kaineng. I still say they end up moving back to the EU servers though."

VoTF could actually continue to build on their reputation if they stay on the N/A servers. EU servers would mean queue times and just joining the multitude of guilds in the prime time over there.
I completely agree that VoTF transferring to SoR would make the most sense considering that their strength would come to cover a weak spot and bring some balance back in T1 for the weeks to come.
I honestly think knowing their tenacity and resolve in the battle they do love the challenge and will transfer to SoR.

I hope they consider Kaineng. Kaineng is a very competitive server that lacks an EU crew.

yeh i hope VoTF chooses Kaineng aswell. Kain is a great server, all they need is strong EU guild to back up their very strong oceanic and asian guilds.

Well we, Desolationians (EU) have plenty of EU guilds but we need one guild from NA and one guild from Oceanic to stop Viz from hitting empty towers and keeps after EU primetime. Well if we get two guild from two different time zones, we will become the superpower of EU

morrolan.9608:

VOTF are an EU guild

:(, oh well.

i have one question, is VoTF an EU guild or NA/Oceanic? if they are NA or Oceanic, we would love them to transfer to Desolation (EU) so we can beat the Frenchs (VIZ). Desolation is a strong EU server, we need more people after EU primetime to prevent VIZ from PvDooring us.

dw i have screenshot of viz shooting our siege weapons of inner bay earlier today in Elona BL……… viz viz viz, i have nothing to say to you guys anymore.

you got a hole over the gate, if you look into that you can target inside, quite simple really.

are you kidding me? there was no arrow carts near the gate…well what you said doesnt make sense what so ever. for 15 mins, Viz were hitting our siege weapons inside the inner gate from the platform next to the water. Plus, if Viz were using an arrow cart outside the inner gate it would have been destroyed from us in matter of seconds.
