Guild Wars 2

Haven’t you heard? it is a valid tactic to exploit another servers push to your own gain, if you want something heavily defended and there’s a large force attacking say north gate distracting defenders it’s an opportunist thought to gather a force and go for the south and hope the clash in the north dwindles both opponents down for a ninja cap, if both attackers find themselves in inner Hills they will rip each other to shreds to get the cap.

This is more commonly seen across the border lands than you may know by all 3 servers in varied combinations and it is always only the defender no matter what server they represent that the whole experience feels like an organised double team.

that piken guild ( sorry forgot the name >.< ) and many more on Desolation

That’s us Afterlife [AFTL]

On another note GvG is a luxury enjoyed lower down tiers where there actually is breathing space to do so and not something guilds can always afford time to squeeze in here in Tier 1. With all this 3 way action every guild raid is needed on the field if there’s a guild dogging in a bush in some corner of a bl with an enemy guild it can very well have a negative impacts on the servers effort on that bl and the rest of the server will not be happy kittens having left them hanging out to dry.

I talked to our server guys and we just don’t have the ability to reset these at different times. As much as that is an unsatisfying answer for you in the EU, it is reality.

It’s lovely you at least responded. But what kind of ability are we talking about ? hmm…. it simply makes one wonder why… since the servers are located differently across two continents….

I think the real answer is paying a separate team out of normal NA business hours to remotely reset EU from NA is out of the question.

And if this isn’t the answer it cannot be far off it, any game iv played that had both NA and EU servers with separate patch times and reset capability had an EU dedicated server maintenance team whereas Anet do not have a European branch.

Reset is crucial to many servers but in the EU it falls at the most inconvenient time where only the most dedicated of guilds can take part in any real capacity.

Many guilds have to compete in a smaller capacity due to members who cannot commit to such unsociable hours and or work saturdays etc, but also due to time differences in the EU some region players may be worse off than others.

I remember the days of the orbs reset was a 3 way push to north camp to take orb then form a blob the whole way to escort it to bay or hills. the remainder of the time it encouraged servers to stay blobbed and focused on the orb and not the remainder of objectives.

Right now there are a majority who are calling for Anet to find a solution to encourage servers to distribute their manpower and break up zergs the return of orbs will only encourage stacking further.

Orbs are not back for a reason either there is no easy solution to prevent exploiting them or bringing them back could cause further issues down the line with tier imbalance etc.

Personally i do not support any mechanic that can boost the fighting capacity and further reward an overwhelmingly strong server in a matchup as currently we have servers locked in tiers with a single dominating server that can’t move up and ones that can’t go down orbs in this situation will just rub salt into the wound. Orbs are the least of the communities worries right now.

I personally don’t miss orbs at the moment there’s much chatter about imbalance in tiers regarding population and coverage blobbing etc, throw orbs back in to the mix and it will upset the situation further.

Our guild TS went offline for a few hours before reset only coming back 15mins before apparently in this situation the provider was doing maintenance, but i do know lot’s of people have the feeling that some times it’s more than a coincidence that TS crashes etc at vital moments and tbh if their are dos attacks it would originate just like hackers to either an individual or small group of rouges that don’t represent a server community and in effect could be a disgruntled player on our own servers only the perpetrator really knows who he/she is and their motives.

Mystery.7392:

Looks like no one wants to swap with Elona

Seriously your better off staying in tier 2 m8

When the four guilds left Piken Square for SFR BOON,RG,sIN,ECL my guild Afterlife [AFTL] that had close ties with Boon Control went Desolation instead, we decided the challenge of fighting our former allies was more beneficial to our interests than tagging along for the ride.

And boy do we enjoy poking fun at each other when we meet on the battlefield
In my personal opinion i would not see our arrival on Deso as a bandwagon move we can field a max of 15 and averaging less despite our enemy outnumbering us 3/1 very often our notoriety on Deso is one of determination and some what suicide, flipping camps, attacking keeps, charging into RG , BOON and anything else red for that matter we wouldn’t have it any other way it’s our style, even the small people can have an impact.

For me the current system relies too much on servers winning and losing consistently to lose or gather sufficient points to go up or down which isn’t always the case many match ups become a stalemate as servers point income’s flux this makes some tiers stagnate hampering other servers in different tiers from progressing.

I see one of the flaws of the current system is that a server despite losing frequently can stay in a tier for a long time primarily riding on it’s past success and accumulated score to keep a point gap between 1st place in the tier below rather than it’s current performance.

A reset would only be a short term fix eventually the problem would appear again without an additional means to place a server in a tier other than points alone, possibly rewarding bonus points depending on a servers placement ie 1st 2nd 3rd at the end of the week could help boost the point differences between those stomping in 1st in the tier below whilst the 3rd position in the above tier hangs on life support indefinitely.

For EU Blacktide may be owning it’s tier but tbh it took a rather large fall from grace from tier 1 and bled out points down to where it’s at currently, despite winning it’s current matchup it still has points to make up for to allow it to move up.

In this particular situation Blacktide is winning tier 8 but cannot move up until either it catches up and exceeds Whiteside Ridge’s score in tier 7 or Ruins of Surmia does the same to get into tier 6.

Yes it’s a pain for those in tier 8 BT will eventually move out but currently it could possibly take an unknown amount of time so i do hope Anet finds a fix to your dilemma.

REAL.7483:

Tell me something, maybe i can help you understand:
- What was Seafarer’s Hills upgrades like in VZ BL ?
- What was Vizunah Garrison + Cragtop upgrades like ?
- What was Desolation bay upgrades like ?

Answers:
- Max
- Max
- Paper

People tend to attack the weakest target, which happened to be you, it is not an alliance, it is how it works, failing to acknowledge and come QQ on forum is lame…
Why do you think we didn´t have our garrison in SFR in the past 2 days prime-time ? Yes, because IRON downgraded it right before prime. Same hapened to Bay in Desolation border with RG + Option raiding there, i was watching map and we kept losing it, because we had paper Bay.

Solutions? Play defensive, siege up, escort.
Don´t wanna do that? Deal with it and enjoy the fights then =]

Sorry that isn’t a valid excuse were mostly all here in tier 1 for the challenge and on Deso bl we have the very exact thing and our objectives on our half of the map where all max and what SFR and Viz had was paper and they still both focused on our tier 3 stuff maybe we just have those from Viz and SFR that want a challenge come onto Deso bl rather than free loaders who belong back where they came from in lower tiers run around focusing on paper bringing numbers but no experience and avoiding anything that would require any substantial organisation to flip.

Anyway despite the double focus im proud to see the same old faces holding the line on Deso bl day in day out against the ever changing guild raids of the enemy trying to have a pop at us, you have to admit we make you work for your objectives

Another issue is the bags, we where told the appearance of the bag represented the quality of loot inside well iv had small chests full of trash loot more times than id like to count.

Anet wrecked SFR maybe you guys are regretting now having made that joke transfer thread it apparently backfired.

When a server looks strong people will flood to it if given a carrot (free transfers) I feel a second Piken Square situation and i really feel for you guys on SFR as it not only effects you but all of us as it changes the quality of play in tier 1 and i hope you can either shed the excess baggage or adapt around them to get your raids in.

I don’t even know why SFR ended up on the free transfers the initial list excluded them then the list was removed and left blank and hey presto SFR gets incoming.

The population statistics Anet have and use is Naf, they can’t or wont drum up a monitoring system to distinguish a servers population based on PVE numbers vs WvW.

Yes PVE players can WvW and vice versa however the two have separate and permanent stable communities the proof is in the fact almost every server has it’s own WvW community forums and the numbers that cross over are negligible in making such a big impact, what does on the other hand is an imbalance of one or more servers having a higher permanent WvW population in comparison to a PVE being classed as a medium server or a high PVE/WvW server classed as very high.

Anet treats the servers as one community however there is two distinct communities the PVP and the PVE, PVP players don’t want to kill AI character they love the challenge of fighting real players and play the game for this very reason and it kills them to be forced to pve grind, likewise PVE players enjoy the folklore and content and play the game for those reasons and more than likely struggle to compete with real players compared to their seasoned PVP counterparts, they come to PVP because Anet forces them to with daily and monthly achievements.

Im still curious how the Queue system is managed, iv heard rumors that the population cap is linked across a servers bl instances meaning for example if there was say a 400 pop cap and each bl is not restricted Deso server could have 100 on VIZ bl 160 in EB another 100 on SFR and only 40 on home bl be outmanned and still have a Queue to enter.

If this theory is any where close to what’s going on that would mean the queues are linked across the bl’s and someone leaving could free up a space potentially anywhere. If a server stacks numbers on one border they could leave another bl’s or more queued regardless if those there are outmanned.

It’s just a theory that keeps popping up from time to time regarding queues people are finding them only to enter and find their outmanned on arival etc

On a better note lot’s of fun on Deso bl against a SFR/VIZ sandwich in Garrison

SFR hammering the West side and Viz hammering the East with trebs and golems all night Deso’s VOTF,AFTL,DEX bouncing between sides like kitten ping pong balls both servers taking it in turns to storm us through the breaches and every time us holding off by the skin of our noses. Eventually we succeeded in silencing both sides trebs by re-capturing cliff and LV and managed to get the walls and gates back up.

Pretty tense evening in my opinion it was stressful but at the same time rewarding, what happens now without our coverage?… we can only guess

The blobs won’t cease no one will be prepared to revert back to individual raids not whilst blobbing means winning it’s a by product of tier 1 that is now spilling down to lower tiers.

When piken hit tier 2 it discovered blobs for the first time with SFR and JS without taking into consideration it’s coverage it’s individual guild raids refused to adopt merging raids and so couldn’t compete on a similar level.

Many of the guilds from piken now in tier 1 servers where some of those guilds proud to stand solo but tier 1 has changed them they have forsaken their values and merged with the mentality of the tier 1 blob. Im sure many despise what has come of us but Pandora’s box is open and we will find it very difficult to close it now as we have all in tier 1 set the standard of play.

Aneu.1748:

Can you give a little insight behind the veil at Anet regarding the whole siege turtling on keeps/towers vs open field fights. Which do you try to promote, which do you think is more fun to the community and do you think there will be a realisation soon that allowing these “blobs” to sit inside towers/keeps holding bottlenecks really does add quite a large sum of frustration to the game and as such a decrease in HP on reinforced/fortified doors/walls might help in this regard as it will promote offensive defence as opposed to the current turtle strat.

On the contrary i believe gates should have an HP increase due to the increase in group sizes (Blobs) becoming a normality Gates are going down too fast, i do not believe blobbing in towers is to hide from conflict it’s a step being taken purely for defensive means. If the doors where stronger in the face of a zerg smaller numbers could hold out longer for reinforcements instead of sticking large groups on permanent guard duty, scouts are no longer enough iv witnessed a zerg crash through a tier 3 outer garrison in less than a minute with no time for defenders to reinforce.

It’s much better than me being a deso player standing guarding the burst wall on NE garrison and then being asked if im a spy even though iv been shouting in /T the fact there was a hole there in the first place undefended lol

With all this talk of blobs between everyone i feel there’s a special Blobby Anthem due an airing, its such a coincidence even the lyrics can be related to lol

The one night im struck down with man flu lol

And like i said before guys were not taking into effect culled friendlies what you see and what the enemy sees may be two very different pictures, sometimes you will never truly know how many tag along’s you have in your group.

Not to mention the fact if you have two commander tags present every tom kitten and harry will be homing into your location like moths to a light bulb.

I can understand how IRON maybe couldn’t get all their members in as the last few weeks deso bl has been under defended with possibly 1 or 2 guild raids + pugs, steps to correct this on reset may have caused a bit of congestion with guilds and randoms resulting in numbers but incomplete raid groups.

On the other situation where IRON claimed to be up against more than just sIN and another guild, well the culling system now favors removing your allies before the enemy So in effect IRON may very well have seen more players than sIN or it’s allies could see on their end especially if one had a tag and you had half the bl’s pugs and randoms in tow, hopefully the patch will help resolve this confusion or possibly cause more drama when the true size of server zergs and blobs is revealed lol

But at the moment any debates on numbers is pointless as it’s just a case of agree to disagree.

[ECL] from SFR hope you enjoyed the fun on Viz bl nice try with the mesmers in bay unfortunately we [AFTL] played enough around you on piken to know what you where up to, must admit though you gave me quite the run about along with those two stealthers from [RIOT] lol

love from the annoying Asura Guardian flushing your mesmers out and chasing them round bay, need a lie down now my little legs are exhausted

Solo roaming is a thing of lower tiers can’t do anything in tier 1 without running into a huge group i guess it puts people off.

Well done those defending deso bl im sure viz hates us more than ever after their mostly failed attempts to take cliffside defiantly held by 10 men of [AFTL] and followed up by quick reaction forces reinforcing us, not to mention other commanders defending the other objectives.

Unfortunately raids started to call it a night before 10pm and we where the only guild left vs a group of 30 Viz with 3 trebs at astral and a load of SFR at garrsion so we took our 10 men + a few randoms and did a kamikaze into viz treb team blob, so have fun with your PVD SFR & Viz

Anet sort this rubbish out we had a queue onto Deso bl last night only to find we had outmanned.

Ok i owe you an apology

The fact you were crying about this in the first place is quiet laughable.

With all the drama it’s great to have a laugh!!!

Even i found it quit laughable afterwards when you SFR tried a bum rush and got wiped too over the same situation like you really needed a 3 way fight just to attempt a cliffside cap defended by originally a handful? many bags for Viz over that situation lol

Method.8592:

Axle.5182:

Was there any call for this Viz? simply trolling in my opinion you break in cliffside in Deso bl and hold off capping just to build siege in record time and farm bags from defenders and attackers until your satisfied then cap and you accuse others of cheap under handed tactics.

The lord was immune 4min, we had to hold you, no trolling.

Ok i owe you an apology

Angelyne.2936:

Split and start to come with a 20-25 group instead of that 50+ blob and you’ll have open field fights. Most of the time, we are all (you as us) unable to do anything else than auto-attack because of lags. that never happened before you came to T1.

Pot calling kettle black yesterday afternoon Deso where out manned in EB we took a group of 15-20 to SFR corner and who did we find?… not SFR but 60-70 Viz holding hands like a tsunami. Tbh 20-25 man groups are very scarce now in tier 2 and above.

When piken joined tier 2 the 20-25 man raid was how the server rolled despite it’s coverage they found both JS and SFR did a fair bit of holding hands the explanation given was they had merely learned and adapted from experience fighting Viz in tier 1 you set the standard of play for anyone competing in tier 1 and now you despise the very monster you created.

Xispeo.1706:

Guys try to fight properly and stop your golem hijacking by spies, we report them but ANet doesn’t ban them.

That’s because although it’s annoying for 1 you need proof and secondly you need to convince Anet it’s an exploit which to be honest many have tried and failed as it is perfectly within the rules to switch server and to use whatever resources that server has available Anet will not punish people for doing this, it is up to communities to find away around it ie build golems etc as a guild group and away from pugs and randoms.

Cheers Viz for the laughs on Deso bl the sight of your pug blob repeatably running into my line of warding on the pass heading up from Astral to cliffside not to mention the moment you all decided to stack up against the cliff outside Astral and got ripped to shreds from in front and above it was like shooting fish in a barrel had me in stitches, hopefully our commander posts up the video lol

From the perspective of someone 2 matches back who fought against JS you would just end up with two night and early morning capping servers no fun at all for anyone wishing open field battles.

Piken could easily beat them in prime time as JS are a very defensive orientated community opposed to offensive so piken would lose everything over night when the mainstream raids logged off, the bulk of JS’s income came from that matchup around the 12:00-0600 AM bracket and started to fall off around 2pm when more of the prime time raids with pugs started up, the income generated out of that time bracket was sufficient for JS to nullify pikens prime time gains and jump ahead sending piken to tier 3 due to a lack of sufficient out of hours coverage to counter.

It is indeed a fact that coverage is a big factor in deciding who stays and who goes up and who goes down.

Anyway cheers for the welcome Offski we will be ready to rock and roll on Reset with our full raid from that point on unlike our casual small scale raids so far this week on deso bl getting the feel for the server and it’s commanders and vice versa.

When I played some with them on Gandara once, I just kinda went “… I think he’s screaming at people to stay on him. I think. Don’t quote me on that.”
And I’m generally pretty good at understanding people…
:p

makes a change often it’s to tell people to stay away from their raid as they get very upset with pugs rallying downed enemies.

On their vent, where you’d actually hear his accent? Doubtful

Im formerly from Piken Square he was always at our server meetings on TS and very vocal, im not flaming RG i just find it amusing the concept of sacrx’s well known lack of patience that even he (Bob) knows he has mixing well with a french community.

It’s a laugh that even RG would appreciate come on someone from RG and tell me would you not find it funny Sacrx ranting at french commanders with the whole language barrier thing going on?

Never said it wouldnt be funny, and didn’t attack you :p

Ignore gizmo hes just emo we moved from piken. One more hypocrite now himself moved to deso.

Haha sacrx i didn’t care you came or left im used to it i was with RG on both BT and piken and tbh left piken for the same reasons most guys did the drama holding it back we didn’t join you on SFR like most did we chose the opposition.

I know what you guys do and i respect that despite that the rage of the machine is strong and it makes me laugh

That would be the silliest thing ever RG has been all about GvG if they move it’s to seek new worthy opponents to test themselves against that’s where they get their kicks from.

Tbh anyone who knows Sacrx will laugh hard at the thought of his frustration and rage with the language barrier etc, so if they do move they aint doing it to boost the server as coordination and communication will be a nightmare both ways they more than likely would be a separate entity outside the community and have their sights on fighting guild/s on the opposing servers.

But still even the thought brings me into a giggle Sacrx with his northern accent raging at JS commanders all night and them going ????? lol

Hiding in towers and night capping is something iv encountered with many french servers even in T3 with AR it may just be a french community thing and that’s how they play.

Despite this some french guilds on these servers do fight open field and i have great respect for them others need a kick in the backside and grow some balls we had a group of 15 run into a similar sized Viz group hoping to ninja cap a sentry or camp or something and rather than fight they simply ran off.

It’s raid leaders like this that form bad opinions not to mention spread defeatism within your community, i wish you the best in running an academy in the hope it strengthens the resolve of both commanders and randoms and for those that persist just tie a rope round their waste so you can keep them together when they flap away.

4 guilds left Piken Square for SFR [RG], [sIN], [ECL] and [BOON]

By the way my comment about rather having SFR take bay than viz is in the context that we just took it off viz and the embarrassment of losing it again to you so soon before we had even pushed you back out the gate was saved by SFR noticing an opening and grabbing the opportunity for loot bags, it does not mean an alliance or anything and id have felt the same if it was SFR and you guys ninja’d it.

But yeah keep trolling. And yes we dont have a lot of people but we are always with vcy riot ect we just dont make raids everyday.

Okay firstly i was on Deso border too, you were against half of DsD, since they play later at night + a handful of pugs, but good job! (endsarcasm)

Hebril Amolebin.9817:

Also you seems dont understand why sfr is so strong. We dont do like iron come join us we are blob, sfr develops it players. Our pugs are better than average.

Aaahhh, the good old “Our servers players are the best around!” Every server has great players, every server has bad players, try to accept that and your head will fit through the door on the way out

Il second that as also AFTL with 10-15 max where there, AFTL broke the north outer gate whilst viz was occupied at the south informed the server we had a breach and us and DsD took bay, now what followed was the remaining Viz setup cata on cliffs whilst rest of viz got back in through the gate half a guild and a small guild plus randoms holding off Viz whilst SFR just walked in through open doors and walls and ninja it.

Tbh most didn’t care as long as we stopped Viz getting it back not to mention we had a lack of manpower tonight on the bl and where kinda stretched holding off and making ground against greater forces from both opposing servers not to mention huge skill lag from bumping into their groups.

Also hills was defended by more than two guilds i was on the ramparts watching the place fill up with SFR after the outer wall was breached.

Beside that hello again SFR and for the first time Hi Vizunah from [AFTL] (ex piken)

Don’t Fret Afterlife [AFTL] in transit to Deso

In my opinion stealth is supposed to be designed to allow the thief to get close enough to attack and breathing space to disengage if things go wrong.

problem is the thief has been granted far to much control over stealth and less has been offered to counter it. We have no feedback on hits to stealthe’d characters this needs to be addressed and also the use of defensive skills such as healing should be removed from stealthe’d characters, that way if you can’t win your stealth is really a get the hell out option and not a brush off and try again over and over indefinitely and in quick succession whilst your opponent cannot.

Stealth is a very powerful tool and for it not to have a sufficient trade off makes it broken and in dire need of attention, however saying that i believe stealth will be addressed soon but Anet will not implement anything until culling has been removed as it in itself effects the data needed, without culling they will have a clearer picture of what they have to do.

RedSpectrum.1975:

Not gonna lie that shadow realm visual effect seems really cool, but when your like me who goes into stealth every 3 seconds, your screen going from negative to normal and back will get annoying

Stealthing every 3 sec is just as annoying lol

GvG fights are becoming more common as guilds set out to test their metal against their counterparts in WvW the only problem is there is no facilitated areas that guilds can do this that doesn’t disrupt either WvW itself or spectators jumping in and screwing things up.

A system implementing a large arena where cross server and same server guilds can set up matches against each other and spectators can join the viewing areas and then placed as non combatants would be nice.
