Guild Wars 2

Wvw is meant to be an extension of pve.

How dare two servers work together! /sarcasm

There are quite a few former everything players on HoD now. LOLOLOLOL

Everyone stacked into Gold league PvF.

It’s a globe that you touch and receive some buff from.

Bumpity bobble!

It’s gonna be fun times when Tibstrike sees this thread, the guy whose quotes are being attributed to me. I have no obligation to prevent you from making a fool of yourself. You might want to delete posts now before anyone else notices.

‘’compete against each other in the best way we can. ’’

so the best way you know to compete against eachother is 15-20 blob fights. Your words, not mine.

/facepalm

^^^ Not familiar with GvG scene. Thinks people do only 15v15 and 20v20.

You said 15-20 yourself in the post above mine

Wow. Just wow.

^^^ Not familiar with GvG scene. Thinks people do only 15v15 and 20v20.

LMAO. Or just “Flaccid”.

What’s the precursor for that one? I want!

Daily reminder that running in circles and spamming AoE with food buffs on is not GvG. The provided video links in this post are GvG. Make sure you learn the difference.

Different game, bro.

I did not suggest that. Don’t put words into my mouth. I said these GvG guilds also play WvW. I didn’t say they play WvW for PPT. And you of all people, coming from FA, should know that even the guilds who don’t play for PPT contribute indirectly to it.

EOTM is not a solution to the lack of a GvG mode hurting WvW. The point was missed that many of these GvG guilds also play WvW and are/were members of the server’s WvW community.

I agree. I want to add another way how the lack of a GvG mode hurts WvW. After Season 1 and leading up to Season 2 there was a lot of guild movement to other servers DUE TO GVG. These guilds cannot easily get access to other guilds to GvG, especially when seasons lock servers into leagues. These population changes affect WvW because a lot of these GvG guilds also play WvW. If there were a GvG mode, the likelihood of GvG guilds transferring servers and affecting the WvW population would be reduced.

The cause can still be the same with different client behavior since there have been patches to the client.

LOL stop slandering FA saying we play for second. Perceptions about other servers are created by people like you saying kitten like that. If you don’t like the tanking talk about your server, don’t dish it out.

Maybe try playing a different map until it is fixed.

If you say it enough times, Chris, it must be true, right? Like how SoS tanked in the match up against Mag and DB, let Mag and DB feed PPT off you guys, despite all your threats to DB that SoS will stomp them if they came to T2. No worries though. BG did the same thing.

Dahkeus.8243:

Yea, there’s 2 primary reasons behind why I don’t enjoy WvW even though I love PvP:

1) The maps are so huge that most of your time is spent running to objectives where you outnumber your enemy or running from areas where your enemy outnumbers you.

2) Since there’s no time limitations, there’s no real sense of winning or losing. Ultimately, it feels very pointless.

I would love to see a PvP mode larger than sPvP with multiple objectives, but sadly WvW is such a far extreme of that, it completely misses the mark.

Your comments are interesting because, after getting more into sPvP, I been feeling that sPvP is a micro version of WvWvW but where you get better fights and can play for PPT in a more meaningful way.

Sounds like the map is crashing and the current client is having trouble recovering.

The swiss tournament system itself is not fail. It’s all the transfers pre-season and fail of Glicko-2 to quickly compensate for SoR server implosion and HoD bandwagon that was fail.

The camp has full upgrades yet the yak for briar tower sometimes has no guards spawn to protect it.

Flytrap.8075:

The fact that you need to use a third party in order to figure out such basic information is super annoying and inconvenient.

Of course it is super annoying and inconvenient. And yes, it would be better if that information were put on the in-game map. But the information is also currently available beyond just the logo on the banner.

The API shows the guild that claimed an objective. View a live map that uses the API on the mos.millennium site or gw2score. There might be some overlays that show that information as well.

This thread. Much win.

“After that round has ended, worlds will be matched up according to how many points they have in the tournament. This will continue after each round, which means that the matchups are not predetermined but are dependent upon the results of the previous matchups. If two teams have the same number of points, the team with the higher world rating will be considered the higher seed for the purposes of the matchup. "

Hey now, it takes skill to be a hardcore clicker.

Bump for a tonic or something!

I agree with the poster who said you should server hop.

When I read the posts from the upper tier guys about bloodlust, I just read it as “small group is limited to bloodlust capping”. Sounds boring to me. Just my opinion.

I didn’t say it was all zerg fights. I said zergs are much more numerous. That fact alone tends to result in less roamers/havockers than on lower tiers, which also have zergs, just not as numerous.

Yea, you need to figure what kind of pvp you enjoy and then research the servers from there. WvW tends to be players grouping up into large zergs and the server rankings are a general reflection of population. On the higher tier servers these zergs are more numerous than on the lower tier servers. Because of this, you’ll find smaller scale fights get a bit more action on lower tiers while the upper tiers tend to have more large scale fights.

If you enjoy a more structured pvp game mode, 5v5 conquest in the Heart of the Mists, which server you are on doesn’t really matter. Neither does your server matter for PvE content.

Nick.6972:

Can’t win #12 server.
GG.

Number 12 server is a bandwagon. GG, Nick.

Yes, please. I’m already missing the Chibi Thunderbirds WvW action.

Remember the yaks!

There’s a cap on wxp rank and point progression. Diamond whatever or something.

I think it is better to split recognition of time played and recognition of skill, especially in a pvp game mode.

Kraag Deadsoul.2789:

“Kill them all!”

This was our guild’s battle cry. Or motto.

Power Shoes was buffed semi-recently to provide the 25% boost out of combat too. <3

I love playing Chibi Wars!

Match-ups are going to be by tournament points with Glicko rating as tie-breakers according to the blog.

Jonstern pulled me out of retirement.

Nah, not trying to derail it, …

Andrew,
Thanks. Some person had posted off-topic accusations about the current match. Those posts had been removed so now my post looks way out of context. XD

Do NOT make level 80 so obtainable!!! /sarcasm

I wish people would stop equating rank with skill or prestige rather than time played.

I keep hearing this, but are you saying that time played does not need to be rewarded? How am I being treated in a special way for playing longer than others? Remember this is an MMO. The goal is to spend as much time playing as possible.

Time played is still being rewarded by rank. There’s a cap to it. You will continue to gain “rank levels” after you reach the cap and will receive a chest for doing so. In the PvE game mode, you hit level 80 and continue to gain a skill point for every “level” you gain after that. That’s called “end-game” and Anet continues to provide “end-game” content and rewards.

We will see how the season pans out. But TBH, HoD has no chance against FA off hours. We may get top 3 in Silver, but no chance at the win. But either way, it will be nice to face off with some servers we have never really met on the battlefield

Actually FA has no organized off hours. You are going to find out exactly what your numbers are worth when you face them.

Lol… This guy showing off his knowledge of other servers again?

I think the rank adjustment is perfectly justified. The way it was previously set up was completely backwards. Rank is and only ever will be a measure of time playing a single game mode, like levels in PvE (which take way way less time to get). Experience is a natural consequence of playing a long time, but doesn’t necessarily mean “skilled”. The better way to reflect prestige is through achievement titles, ladders and leaderboards.

Yes, it feels weird to long time players because you’ve been playing under a backwards/broken prestige system for so long.

Please don’t use our recruiting thread for off-topic discussions that can violate the terms of this website. If you would like to talk about the match-up, I direct you to check out http://www.gw2wvw.net/.

Edit: Thank you for removing your off-topic posts.

Maybe file a support ticket. You’re not the only NA player who interprets “start of the tournament” as NA reset.

OMG zerg rush kekekeke!
