Guild Wars 2

Or blind…

So we should not be able to cc the enemy condi spammers to help our team? We should just 100blades the air while everyone dies to condi?

K you win at logic.

Corodox.5421:

Shoutout to the ANBU guild who will be jerks for any amounts of loot. Thanks for interrupting my duels with Zumy by using your terrible warrior and thief skills. But thanks again for being so bad that you die in a 1v1 when I’m at no health and giving me the loot. I enjoyed watching you run I’m always available for 1v1’s if your actually willing to fight me honorably.

Last time I checked, this was WVW, not 1v1 duels. If you are on the map you are fair game. I did enjoy fighting you while my thief buddy took on the other thief. It was a good fight and i didnt watch my cooldowns as well as i should have. You won. I don’t deny that. You earned the kill. I was watching heavily for the thief though while we fought to make sure he didn’t get my thief. But don’t say that I’m not skilled. I do not lose very often and you play your warrior very well. I consider you to have at least equal skill as I do, if not more seeing as you won. Losing that one time simply makes me better as i can learn from my mistakes.

So don’t get too kitteny. WvW is not about fair it is about opportunity. I’ve never jumped someone and said I’m better than you after killing them. And I never say I’m better than someone who I kill after being jumped when I least expect it. Nor do I whine about losing. Most of my posts are props for well fought fights.

And who was the one who kept coming back to fight after being killed and who was the one who took his ball and went home after one loss?

nobody puts DH in a corner. DH puts [cosa]+friends in a corner. in garrison. like those smelly cow shots we had raining on ya?

Seeing DH at less than 150 per tick tells me cosa + friends are winning. If you are dumb enough to fight for a garrison only, keep it tbh.

Once SF hit the 10k lead. Dh gave up on 1st. DH doesn’t stand for Defensehaven, so assuming that we actually defend stuff is hilarious.

I’ll let our oceanic friend on dh know to fight for outher things that a garrison… oh wait…

nobody puts DH in a corner. DH puts [cosa]+friends in a corner. in garrison. like those smelly cow shots we had raining on ya?

ET stopped my QL solo attack earlier in EB. kittens! i had the lord to 15% with lag fighting and random SF thief attacks!

Assassin X.8573:

Watching on my phone, 20k HP or 26k?

20k hp… and he is so kitten durable…

Ty. Thought so. Looks like he might be running something similar to my build. Only he uses healing sig and sos and I use surge and zerk stance. And it is just as durable. His play style is almost exactly like mine. It felt weird watching LoL.

Watching on my phone, 20k HP or 26k?

Had some fun 3way fights early on at SF hills. I think DH had the least mount of numbers inside at the beginning, but as both of us whittled down ET who had the superior numbers to both dh and sf at the time, it DH came out victorious

This will be a promising matchup hopefully. Gotta get them carrots on those sticks!

TL:DR

Did the colonies complain that the British were zerging when they fought the revolutionary war? Minute men rocked the kitten out of the Brits with guerrilla warfare.
The crippling tactics of the small group was a huge factor in the war.

WvW is working as intended.

/thread

im working on a second set of celestial, just to have it for my war, i love it on my ele.

the theory crafting with celestial is very interesting to say the least.

if you want to have a really well rounded build, i would definitely use celestial. but if you are looking for a certain stat, go with what you are looking for like zerk knights pvt or whatever.

so bottom line, celestial gear should not be 100% discounted as an option, its viable.

with full clerics armor and trinkets (not weapons) my shouts were healing for 2,475 with ~1100 healing power.

If the [Ohai] trio at speldan earlier was the same trio that took SM, then I am not really impressed by your performance. Sm must have been undefended because, of the three of you, ele ranger and war, your warrior was the only one with a decent build and ability.

Well, first, I just want to point out that it is obviously not the same group as the picture I posted included me, a thief, and two warriors. Second, you can see a dead player and enemy players in the background of the screenshot. So, in your attempt to conflate the two incidents, it is evident that you are just merely making an attempt to trash our players for whatever reason. It’s really not very sportsman like. We didn’t post anything to impress you. We just had a good night and wanted to share how we liked the matchup and had fun.

Assassin X.8573:

If you can more you can duo sm lord. I’ve duoed bay and hills multiple times, both undefended and equally defended (two enemies showed up to defend).

If you know what you are doing, and the other enemies don’t k ow what you are doing, then its a cake walk.

It’s actually pretty funny that you post this. From reading your first post, I wasn’t exactly sure as to why you would be so rude for no reason, and now it makes sense. The fact that you had to make sure to include that you have duo’d keeps is very telling. I posted something positive, complimenting both FC and DH for their performance and shared a little bit of [OHai]‘s success and your immediate response is, "I am not impressed. I’ve done that in keeps. Blah, blah, blah." Well, frankly, we do not engage in chest thumping, “we’re the best players ever” antics like that. We play for fun, and it is unfortunate that you are trying to make a positive post into some negative forum warrior competition. It’s sad seeing as how other DH players have been nothing but respectful.

On a lighter note, I anticipate more good fight tonight from all. >:)

my mistake, i took your original post of “3 of us took SM” to be that which had an air of superiority. i apologize for that.

i’m used to seeing troll posts like that from [XOXO] for the past weeks before the recent month of FC/DH/X matchups.

i’m a bit tense as week 2 of not being paid by my employer and working for free (good ole US government!), but that’s no excuse for my interwebz outburst. i took out my frustrations on those of you in [oHai] and i offer my sincerest apologies!

hope to see you on the battlefield!

I just wish it was compatible with the Y-Axis. It doesn’t work if you use it on someone below you.

Cruril Darksbane.2318:

Problem is the art of war doesn’t apply to wvw because they are not objectives in wvw :/.

WvW lacks a sense of direction. The only objective is to cap the most towers.

The objective of wvw is to control of all points… you didn’t get the memo?

@ OP: my favorite tactic is to make your enemy thing you are weak and vulnerable, then , when he has become overconfident, strike with an unrelenting assault.

Its not verbatim but its the same sense.

Fun fights earlier in FC. 1 thief + my omega against 1 commander and 6 followers

Traitine.8713:

Melandru runes are nice. Reduces stun & condition duration by 25%. I’m trying out Dolyak now. Not sure the vitality and regen are equivalent, but time will tell.

Dolyak has its own regent of 100 or 150. I doesn’t scale with your healing power.

Jesse.4631:

Surprisingly some upscales fight better then level 80’s lol

True story, bro!

So I am having a hard time deciding on what set of runes to use on my shout build when the buff comes.

I have a set of soldiers currently which I used before in the past. I switched to dwaynas and then back to soldiers.

I am now trying to decide whether to use soldier for the obvious condi cleanse, monk for the aegis, or earth for the protection.

I like the idea of group aegis every 48 seconds when not with my guard buddy.

I also like the damage mitigation from protection sets like earth and forge etc.

And obviously soldiers is additional condi cleanse.

I am going for a super trolly build. LoL. Leaning towards apoth gear.

Any input would help.

to the FC Legendary War running 100Skulls gimmic build [sorry i dont remember your guild tag]:

you play a warrior well. i’ve only been beaten by 1 other 100 skulls war (the rest are bad at war or bad at playing the build in general). you were able to go toe-to-tow with me.

props.

see you again on the battlefield!

Looks like we got ourselves a stand off.

I got rolled by a mace/sword +lb condi war.

He played very well and I was impressed.

insanemaniac.2456:

sir, when you get 15 people to stack might in north camp and chase a soloist all the way to nw camp, you dont earn the right to jump on or sit on his body.

[DARK] is henceforth a guild for scrubs.

LOL i’ll have to let shotty know you took a pic of him. im guessing umadbro?

Doesn’t go with the lore so it won’t happen.

/thread

I loved my ginsu ranger in gw1. Still can’t stand playing ranger in gw2 because I hated pets in gw 1 and still hate them in gw2

Nsp acronym? No skilled players!

I keed! I keed!

Getting some good fights from both sides this match up.

I don’t remember FC having such awesome coverage and numbers ad they are sporting right now.

Its not a nerf to warrior. Its a globally accessible sigil. Not warrior specific. All classes that have a stunlocking Build are affected by this upcoming changed.

I don’t use them and I have no problem killing folks.

Also, I have been destroying the 100skullcrack builds. Either the players don’t know how to use it. Or its just not as good as everyone hypes it up to be. I tend to lean towards the latter theory.

OK. That’s pretty kitten looking! Nice work. I’d want to get sunrise to add to my twilight if it looked like that.

I do not use SIG anymore. Stopped using it before the patch. Its not as good as surge.

ThunderPanda.1872:

had fun trolling and hiding with 20 people on top floor of SM, until you guys omega golem-portal bombed us… :’(

That was me in the omega :|

Everyone was like lmgomgomg we are going to lose sm /freakout.

Then I brought the omega and told the folks to stack on the tagged commander grampa and we dropped the hammer on ya pretty hard.

Assassin X.8573:

Personally I would rather see perma stealth stance like ability. Activate it you are invisible. Attack or deactivate triggers a 5-15 second cool down but you cannot enter stealth until you leave combat (when you are able to swap utilities). Reduce movement speed while invisible to 75% of normal run speed. Trait can increase stealthed movement by 50% to a max of perma 33% ims while invisible. Move this trait to grandmaster.

This would solve everyone’s problems.

You’re talking about re-working stealth in its entirety. That’s just not feasible. One of the major points of my suggestion is it would be simple to implement, does not change the current power level of stealth and stealth attacks, and would keep both sides happy.

yes but my system is better. and its not that much of a rework. all it would really adjust is timers.

All that pvp armor is already available in PvE.

On a dedicated test server before builds go live. Gw1 finally, after years and years opened up the test krew team to help thier devs with build tests before going live.

Amongst any other mmo i could list, will we see a test server for the public to help you, the devs out?

Instead of excluding the player base and community why not capitalize on the folks who really have a passion for gw2 and allow them to have a better and more thorough input in The game.

Devs don’t play 24/7. Though I sometimes wish I could, there are plenty of players within the community that spend countless hours simply running tests etc. And would be more than happy to help out our devs with their input.

And maybe look into dedicated profession team leads. In DAoC, there were un official class team leads that submitted vastly detailed and informational reports on class mechanics and bugs.

titanlectro.5029:

This was a pretty awesome reset! (Although I’m a little sad no one commented on my Omega Golem army. We were killing zergs with them for hours!)

Nice to see ya again DH. The old DH/HoD/GoM days are still some of my favorite WvW memories. Sorry to hear that you lost some guilds. We have lost quite a few ourselves so the ratio will probably be about the same.

AR, from my perspective, it looks like your rebuilding efforts are going well. Keep it up!

We only lost the trash. Time to rebuild. Hope Dh gets to fight GoM/HoD 1 more time when SotD is fully back from break and we are trolling.

DH might be a little bit higher than you both but its about even now. We got alot of fresh meat

So from what I have been notified from some people, That Rager is calling us Trash? I hope you are not talking about either Abyss or SE. Do remember, you were in my guild at one point. And if you are talking about us, Do remember what we have done for Darkhaven before you start talking about us. You already know I have respect for everyone, but when it comes down to talking kitten behind backs, thats when you lose respect. So, Best of luck to you in DH.

PROSECUTE Approves of this message

Remember the time abyss and se stayed on dh when leagues were announced?

Oh wait…

For what it is worth. Everything you did for the server was great, however, it means nothing if you don’t actually stay on the server. Not to mention that just about 100% of the folks I recruited to [DARK] strictly for wvw either there left or were poached by abyss. So you are welcome for a those folks.

Don’t get me wrong you guys are great. I had a blast running with both abyss and se and working mostly in the shadows while you two held the spotlight.

But that’s just my preference to work behind the scenes.

Best of luck on the league. If we do meet again one day, both abyss and se will be considered Kill on Sight by [DARK]. not out of spite or Ill will but just for funzies

30/0/25/0/15

Don’t use the 20% reduce cool down traits.

so we finally took DH border back…

HoD i REALLY REALLY REALLY hope that you have a good explanation of how you ported golems from outer gate once it was down, directly into the ramparts of inner with all walls and gates of inner 100% intact, clearly in excess of 5000 range…

also a group of HoD earlier today got into inner of HoD hills with no mesmer. all outer walls 100% intact. no one had repaired anything at HoD Hills (there was nothing to repair no holes in walls or gates).

Let them go. Obviously not worth the effort and they are not a great warrior player if they have to completely leave the fight.

Its one thing to be Otw to your group and engage then bounce and another thing to be a solo roamer and run from a fight.

Vengeance is the only thing that grants us invulnerability aside from that 25 charge sigil everyone has access to.

Jinks.2057:

I am astounded that BP is falling a part so fast after 1 fight vs a T2 opponent.

Kudos to SBI for showing BP how a server uses skill to beat a bigger opponent!!!

Gratz SBI!!!!

ps. What happened to BPs’ weekday force? Thought you all had lives and didn’t play on weekends, but stomped during the week????

What server is T2 that bp faced?

[KREW] for all the time we spent battling back and forth on praag, I’m surprised our pathes have never crossed yet LoL! I’m talking to a few of the other Band of he Hawk guys and if you guys are interested, we might be up for some 2-5v2-5 from the war hammer days, or we can do some possible 10v10s with the rest of our guildies

Sadly I am the only one who came to GW2 from krew. I still keep in contact with the warhammer guys but college for some, extra work hours, family life, military etc etc pulled them away from the gaming world for now, but its always good to see old friends/enemies from another game

Don’t think I forgot about tht 30+ min duel we had!!!!! lol

It was funny last night at the dh he sup camp. I was either salt tabbed or looking at the trading post and when I got back to my character I was under attack. So tried to make the best of a bad situation and tried to stay alive. When I finally got my bearings I saw your guys tags was Kew LoL.

Then you guys came to the next sup camp and stopped my cap XD Tried to hold you guys off from capping so the other commander could get there to stop you guys, but she was an idiot and slow to react.

But I had fun trying to kite and survive your assault lol

Red Falcon.8257:

The moment a Warrior is on the defensive he has lost.

I disagree.

while you cannot say there is a true frontline/midline/backline like there was in gw1, all the same rules apply for kiting and peeling for your team cohesion.

you have to know when to press the enemy backline and when you need to support your own by ccing/dpsing/combo blasts/finishers, etc. whatever is on your soft target allies.

the only thing i hear in my mumble server is:

1: theres too many, like # of them!
me: we got this
2: How are you still alive?
me: # down, stomp them
5: omgomgomgomg
me: # more down
2: wtf!
me: stomp the downed
3: im omw back! guess i shouldnt have run
2: how did we survive that? how the kitten are you even alive
me: /shrug
4: what are you stats? i want my war to be like yours!
x: lol. inc!
2: oh god!

I love my war, ive got all classes to 80 and i still pretty much only play warrior. I have perfected my build. I do it all, WvW, SPvP/TPvP, and PvE with the same build.

[KREW] for all the time we spent battling back and forth on praag, I’m surprised our pathes have never crossed yet LoL!

no. End of discussion.

It’s most helpful to us if you are specific about areas that have difficulty spikes for you. (Such as mentioning the spin flowers above.) Also things are always laggy the first day of content release. So complaints about lag don’t help.

TEST YOUR kitten BEFORE YOU RELEASE IT! seriously where is quality assurance and control?
