Well maybe I’ve been misinformed then. Who’s the ALS Norn warrior with the commander Tag I always see at the head of zergs?

That being said, have never seen any Rangers in ALS worth mentioning…

Yeah that’s Twogallants.

As for the second half of that comment, I can say there are probably 2 rangers who I would never want to fight. The first is Dovgan, the second is iBankai, ALS’s guild leader, but he sadly doesn’t seem to play much lately.

I haven’t seen too many good rangers though.

Bankai’s been rolling with his alts, and honey badgering however, where ever, and whenever the kitten he wants. Though, I believe he deleted the ranger and rerolled as a thief. I caught him in Queensdale last night.

He’s most powerful in his final form, Omega Bankai. You have to give the Quaggan Council a few stacks of giant pearls to unlock that.

PAXA & Envy

mewl mewl mewl swats the dummy MEWL MEWL

“5 man”… “8 man”… “two different borderlands”… mewl mewl

*mewl*—insert litany of lamely-crafted lies—*mewl*

I like how the NSP kittens are mewling and getting others to mewl about things that the NSP kittens do, as well.

Lawls. [Envy] boy has too much of nothing to say. I’m not even going read any more of it, Skarllok.

Sure, people like this seem to be saying things, but really it amounts to absolute zero.

You’re boring.

For all of those magnifying glass mad scientists…we are about to run 8.

I’m still running solo.

Lol that’s a shame man, grab 5 and hunt us on a BL.

PAXA challenging people to 8 PAXA vs 5 Other. Case closed.

osif.8673:

30 man hunting parties must be really fun!

Only when they are stomping the guts out of egotistical small group gankers.

LOL

osif is adorable. “mewl mewl”

Skarloc.2569:

Dear ALS,

If you’re going to run into with a zerg of 30 people and have multiple people spamming environmental stun weapons, the least you could do is kill a small group of 4 people. Didn’t take long to find the trashcan guild of the tier.

Over the weekend, I kept getting stunned and then bursted down while trying to reclaim our southeast tower from BP. I noticed the same players always near me when the stun hit, and then saw the Norn BP Warrior holding the gear whenever I saw “Throw” in my combat log.

They were at it again last night, but this time both sides had gears. Sorry for you that you were hanging around the 3-way battles near that tower and Hills keep, including Ronny’s failed golem raid.

No need to feel proud about the time you escaped, in light of the times you haven’t. I already know that some of [Envy] are spiteful and self-congratulatory beyond reason, so I’ve also already learned to love hunting them.

Anvil’s Last Stand [ALS] is LFMILF 18-40. Cougars will be considered on a case-by-case basis.

He means that he looks forward to making sure, this time, that you’re working for him. Good luck!

I believe that Badges of Honor are already the WvW reward currency.

The work you did in PvE was donkey work… so no skill involved, just grind.

The skill involved now is participating in WvW during the offensive assault that claims the capture location in which your missing POI is. That’s not dumb blind luck, it’s fighting against people who can out-think players that are trained on fighting transparently obvious patterns in PvE AI.

Welcome to Guild Wars 2, where the PvE crowd can’t figure out how to WvW well enough to get map completion, the WvW crowd has mostly only bothered to complete all four WvW maps, and the s/tPvP crowd mostly hasn’t bothered to take a character to level 80.

In a game, when I don’t want to do a task that is necessary to accomplish one of the game’s objectives or achievements, you know what I do?

I don’t do the task, and I don’t care about the achievement.

Um…

Ergo rewarding dungeon players with tokens when some players plain don’t like to dungeon would be grossly unfair.

Ergo rewarding stock market players with profits when some players plain don’t like to stock market would be grossly unfair.

Ergo rewarding winning players with wins when some players plain don’t like to win would be grossly unfair.

Silly people.

Npac.3476:

Hey man…as I said you get to have your opinion and lol all you want. Seriously the only reason behind that post was so that way I, co founder of PAXA, could give you a little insight into our perspective/way of doing things.

No worries.

Npac.3476:

Now you don’t have to buy it, believe it, or even agree with it. But what I can say to you is that as far as I know, no PAXA member has ever noticed, mentioned, or even given a second thought to your guild…yet you have noticed mine.

LOL

Npac.3476:

If you would like to change this, please either upload a pic so that way we can recognize you in the field (we keep our server colors off)

Hey, me too!

Npac.3476:

or hand us our butts so badly that we feel the need to kitten all over the forums about your guild.

See you out there?

Already have. ^____^

And that, NPac, is why I said “10 or more… stacked and waiting,” because it was 10… or more (maybe.)

I got a great view of the stack before any Mesmer clones were made at that location, inside the [Determined] zone. Clones don’t stack on command; they chase and aggro things.

In before further denials: LOL

@subcrazy LOL Nice one.

@/facepalm MUAHAHA

And yes, the amazingly close BP vs AR score is great fun. Looking forward to this evening. No thanks to PAXA!

osif.8673:

Yes, because the people that aren’t in our guild know better than we do where we are and how many people we are running with. Our bad, we are very misinformed about our own guild!

Seems so.

And to answer PAXA’s request: No, Anvil Rock will not be taking TCMM back. They’re all yours, now.

Furgerat.7842:

probably because we were runnign 2 5 mans in 2 zones ??
lol i love the forums.

LOL

My favorite thing about you guys is your disinformation. It’s been priceless for weeks.

osif.8673:

Anvil Pants.3426:

Y’all are absolutely hilarious.

I know what I saw, and I know what I did. Have fun, kids.

That unicorn you KNOW you saw last night outside of your window, was about as real as the 10 PAXA members you saw together last night.

That was my guild leader firing his shortbow at my window. He came over because he was lonely.

I SEENT IT

Furgerat.7842:

anyways tho seeing as how the 2 5 mans running were in different zones last night im just stumped on how that could be possible..

shrug

I was on all four maps at various times, and ran into PAXA on at least two of them. We go where the action is.

Furgerat.7842:

Work is slow glad the forums are working today

IKR

Y’all are absolutely hilarious.

I know what I saw, and I know what I did. Have fun, kids.

Kardiamond.6952:

So many thing in this post that doesn’t make sense.

PAXA 10-15 players group? What? I didn’t see them run with more then 5-6 players.

I saw it last night. I do solo & party roaming when I take breaks from commanding, and that’s been most of my activities this week.

BP had southwest borderland waypoint, and NSP had southeast. Three-way fights in the field by southwest tower. Without a commander, we stomped some of PAXA’s people at the rock by southwest tower, and chased the elementalist all the way to southeast waypoint, where 10 or more PAXA were stacked and waiting. A fun fight followed.

PAXA runs more than one party, and sometimes they converge. So do we.

Dovgan.8605:

@Walabone We were extremely stretched out when I put my tag up, but you guys did have us moving. … I always try to keep the mood friendly and fun when I lead.

Who is this, and what the hell have you done with my commander-tagless, roaming, camp soloing Dovgan.

Q ____ Q

Edit: OH! This week is opposites week, and I’ve been solo/roaming the past few days. Nevermind! And, could you handle that pesky alliance thing for me? When I get home tonight, I’ll be busy playing with my new mesmer armor set, again. Thanks.

dank.3680:

Well Envy was there the whole time, in fact it was us that were there first and started the whole thing. We are also the ones that built all the siege, we had about 3x as much siege as we did people, the siege was more of a joke then anything. We did not care about earning points as we were just having a little fun.

Cool.

dank.3680:

Also the numbers were never even, especially not at the end lol. We started with I think 7 of us and gained 2-3 pugs by the end of it. Though most of us were Mesmers so I could see how the numbers would look much higher (though I switched to my ele halfway through).

7 is ok as far as estimates go. I remember seeing more than 7 [Envy] stacked on the sentry, and remember that current culling method culls allies before enemies. I know there were more than 2-3 pugs, and they showed up many times across the hours.

Ronny Raygun was wearing Humiliation Dye that night.

dank.3680:

This is something we did on ferg for fun and will do it here too, it’s not about the points, it’s about creating a small scale fight. We all had a blast and I have to give credit to ALS and also thank them, as they never gave up even after they got wiped several times. Even BP came by and stood on the sidelines to watch… And good job finally pushing us out, it was bedtime for most of us at that poiint.

The BP group started out by trying to sneak in and hit our flank, along that southern hill where people jump to the hill and rooftop of the camp’s eastern entrance. They weren’t good at the jump, and there’s was only one party, so we flanked and trapped them. They came back a few times.

Cheers.

On Anvil Rock, I’ve taken all three of my level 80s into WvW at level 2, immediately after character creation story quest. I leveled all 3 to 80 in WvW.

When I organize a leveling zerg in WvW for [ALS], having chosen the correct time and maps on which to do it, I do that using one of my other non-80 characters, and without using a commander tag. We usually start with 10 and end up with 30+ people in the lowbie zerg, and have no trouble using what we have there to do more than spam skill #1.

It often happens that we start out taking the obvious karma/xp objectives, then end up in a brawl or acting as reinforcement to a more serious operation on map.

AKLbow.2463:

Just wanna say thank you to whoever fought us at Redvale in Anvil Rock Borderlands. Was a great time.

The picture says it all .

Yes, we had fun with that, too!

It all started with AR finally securing our map fully, about 5 hours after reset. [ALS] formed one of its roaming groups, Team Tig Ol’ Biddies. When some NSP decided that they wanted the southwest supply, Biddies spent about 20 minutes defending and keeping it contested (lots of delaying action and trips to waypoint for both sides… we only had Garrison waypoint).

Eventually I had to switch from Necro to Mesmer, since my team was complaining about the NSP mesmer clones. I can play that card, too.

That was a few minutes before [Envy] showed up, with the camp secured for NSP finally, to build at least one of every siege weapon (include an anti-personnel Alpha Siege Golem.)

We sparred back and forth at that camp for nearly 3 hours, while I used my commander hat to draw in reinforcements. NSP was gaining no points from the action, so I followed suit with letting it play out as a front-line sparring match, without planning to build any counter-siege. I think a few on our side did throw down an occasional ballista or something. We had Bay south gate siege, and simply held that line and used the camp exits to choke.

It ended with roughly equal numbers on both sides, and AR’s [SOS] guild whispering me to say that they were preparing to sneak into the back of the camp. I tanked and flanked with [ALS] and all the others following the dorito, while [SOS] did their thing.

We aren’t rewarded for standing in artillery/AOEs.

We are rewarded for maintaining tactical formation under fire.

STACK!

PUSH IN!

FLANK!

Toble.2968:

Also, It’s that time again guys!

I will be on at 7pm est tonight and will be accepting PMs for fight club!

Love me a good fight club!

Paxa, you can come too, just don’t crash a bunch of times and show how kitten you are in some small group v groups.

:) PM me!

Now you went and done it. Expect whispers from our War Lords guild, looking for the time and place to accidentally xpTrain across the ring. :S

Nausicca.6038:

Anvil Pants.3426:

Ah! I’ve been dreaming, too. Dreaming about the lowbie 4-man group …

Oh you ! You forget the 0 after the 4 !
It’s ok, you’re forgiven <3

It’s a fair mistake that you’ve made, there. We do have a bad habit of queueing the maps we go into during primetime this week.

Ssshh. It’ll only last for a few hours. Just try to lie as still as possible and we’ll lose interest.

osif.8673:

@ Mr. Anvil Pants
Nah Anvil Rock does those things. ALS doesn’t though. Get it right!

Ah! I’ve been dreaming, too. Dreaming about the lowbie 4-man group (sometimes 3, due to disconnects) in which my level 20 thief absolutely did not spend more than an hour in your Borderland before [ROFL] outmanned and outgunned us at the southeast Garrison sentry!

OH, LORD FLAME RAM, FORGIVE ME FOR I HAVE ZERGED!

Edit: I also dropped acid before hallucinating the all ALS commander havoc squad in EB, with all commander tags turned off, and the lulz had about Twogallons attracting our zergers even when he tries not to.

Edit:Edit:

Grub? Commander? Moine? Moine? Moine?

Godfather.8217:

Your all silly,

… overall it was a great job by all, our alts leveled from defending, and it was fun countering all the trebs.

How dare you have fun?! This kitten is serious!

Aline.7365:

… nice duel till 2 other anvil guys came up … nice fights !

You must be dreaming. Anvil Rock doesn’t roam, field solo or small groups, nor duel!

Dovgan.8605:

Pre-patch transfers have supposedly caused… no idea what you’re talking about, loved the week we had vs Kaineng. And here is the part here I refuse to believe anything you’re saying.

It will work! TRUST THEM!

Dark Aidget.3879:

So what is this with ANet reseting server scores? And what does this mean for our tier? The way the scores were projecting, it was looking like Darkhaven might bounce up while NSP bounced down, but now I have no idea what is going to happen.

Someone explain these weird things to me.

Simply put: Pre-patch transfers have supposedly caused an unevenness in the current match ups, which is now even less balanced than the occasional mass-transfer to a low-rank server had previously caused.

ANet believes that letting this week play out, then resetting the ratings across board, will more rapidly sort things out.

A server that demolishes its opponents next week will shoot up in the ranks, and then will either meet its proper matches in the following week, or will itself be demolished (which is fairly karmic) and will then fall down to its proper matches.

The Flame Ram Backpack should be only the ram’s head, and yes, it should spout jets of flame periodically.

Wearing the backpack should give you /humptydance and an air-hump animation to “ram dat gate” with.

Dovgan: PAXA obviously deserves to be in Tier 1. LET’S DO THIS!

Zergs are fine. Individuals from zergs that trash talk small groups are not.

Agreed.

Can you go back to saying things I don’t (also) agree with, so that I can go back to crafting smarmy/jerk responses?

Thanks!

I’ll say anything you’d like, if you craft for me. O.O

Perhaps… but, I don’t have enough Mystic Coins to bribe Zommoros into being pleased with you.

The only thing that has annoyed me the most with PAXA is that your calling a guild as a whole skilless zerg for the few that post here on the forums.

Actually, I’m more upset about their forum warriors’ breathing problem.

Don’t worry, my inhaler is right next to me on my desk.

Aha! hides it

Problem solved!

JaironKalach.4938:

And then you talk to some of the more experienced folks and realize that you should have just drained the supply and gotten out of there.

Taking supply from a keep/tower? Scandalous! I’d bet that you also think that there is strength in numbers.

JaironKalach.4938:

He/She’s wondering why there’s a sudden rush of lots of different people complaining about zergs. I think it’s cyclical. You get one person who is annoyed by it, then you get a bunch of people who can come up with the answer to game balance after thinking about it for 15 whole minutes posting their various theories.

Somewhat like in WvW, when there’s a capture point to be taken for your team, and many of your teammates flock to that location to claim it?

You’re the penultimate WvWer of this forum. Tier 1 kittens coming from you, 24/7.

Coming from 2 button smasher MR. “spinny spinny”. Must be nice to have 19 other guys so if you go down, someone will still be able to res.

… remind me which skill it is that lets Mesmers spin-to-win… I seem to have forgotten, in light of all the dumb shining through, here.

We’re seeing a zerg rush on the forum, this week, to QQ incessantly about zergs and related things. I’m curious, and hoping that the forum warriors can answer this: Where is QQ pulling so many kittens from, to zerg us in the name of ending zergs?

jkctmc.8754:

TCMM from AR went to NSP end of last week. I have a feeling some of them got the ban stick though.

Saw 1 NSP TCMM hanging out with 3 AR TCMM last night in our Borderlands, seems like whoever transferred just came to spy.

Lawls. No doubt, that’s one way to interpret the scene, but it’s not the case. I remember that same scene being called out on our Teamspeak server.

Most likely, the TCMM people from both servers were informing the Anvil Rock ones of the fact that TCMM left AR. TCMM came to Anvil Rock from Gate of Madness, so faced a two-fold difficulty in moving its people to Northern Shiverpeaks: Many of the ones from GoM didn’t want to move and start over again; and many of TCMM’s people were picked up in Anvil Rock, where they intend to remain.

The ones we’re seeing on both servers, together on map, and not fighting each other, could very easily be friends catching up, arranging a duel for fun, and yes, even spying.

However, if they’re spying on anyone, it is Anvil Rock.

Culling is fricken terrible right now my god.

trust me PAXA its been to your advantage, you all seem to run away just fine when more than 6 people are coming towards you.

We also have fewer deaths on the server than anyone else, and in REAL pvp games…deaths mattered, there were consequences for dying. Not this “call of duty crap” die respawn, die respawn, die respawn. Clearly that’s where you come from “Mr. Spinny Spinny”.

You’re a pretty girl.

ComeAndSee.1356:

Eurlin.4256:

this is just beyond stupid.

IF you’re blocking treb shots for over 10 minutes your server is doing something wrong. There isn’t a spot you can put a treb that you can’t take down. Stone Mist second floor can be trebbed, and ballista’d

IF you’re server can’t organize after 10 minutes then they are doing something wrong and you’re just wasting time sitting there defending a tower that will still be lost.

the Swirling skill is great for counter trebbing and protecting siege to -take down- their siege. If you need quick protection for a minute or two it’s great other than that, I would never sit an ele by a wall for defense.

It’s called priorities. Putting an Ele to block treb shots is putting a bandaid over the problem until you can get to it.

Literally there’s been times where I’m in Teamspeak with a named guild and we have to play firemen on the map going to defend two towers back to back, re-cap three camps, and then go and kill the treb.

That sounds dangerously like having to fight in a game called Guild Wars 2.

Scandalous.
