BTW, gotta retire this week. Have some RL to attend to till reset.
FC, I know how you feel being trampled by two stronger server, we came from that dilemma months ago but just keep learning and your server will be stronger. Hope to see you again.
DH, kitten guys, we cannot beat you with your numbers I hate it when I see your server as one of our opponents.
IoJ, guys, we fought hard this week. I know we all tried hard to keep up with DH but well we already know the standing the moment we saw our matchup on reset. Keep it up.
god I hate when people say we just need to learn more.. as if it’s anything besides numbers and coverage. it’s especially annoying when the majority of FC has been complaining about absolutely no skill across both enemy servers besides PD and a few there from Abyss

If Anet wanted to change how the siege weapons work. They would set you to first person POV, instead of letting you zoom back out of relatively close to first person pov. Until they do, then all your arguments are moot points.
Since there has been no official response as to how the ac is supposed to be operated, then we have to assume that it is working as intended. And with that in mind, then how one is able to operate any siege weapon within the confines of the determined environment, is how it has been designed to be used.
I posted a screen shot on how to make the shots that DH has been doing. Then it was infracted and deleted. Then the moderator thanked me for sharing the exploit but to send it to exploits@arenanet and not the forums so it doesn’t become public.
so yes they obviously support what DH is doing.

Firstly, I looked to see if there was a sticky thread or merged thread about this since I know it’s common, but I didn’t see anything. Sorry if I missed a thread dedicated to this.
Anyway, around 2-3 months ago I was forced to change my name after several players reported me for completely different reasons than my character name. You could say it was because they just didn’t like me and they heard that if they mass report someone enough for character names that they’re almost always forced to change names, but I don’t think that’s really true. My character account was “Xr Moobs”, which was a play off my earlier character “Mr Moobs”. I was also forced to change my character name on every character that had the word “Moob” in it (6 of 8 of my characters). I would like to request for this to be looked at again, as I don’t really think it’s that much of an offensive name.
P.S the reason I haven’t posted a thread much earlier is because Gaile was on vacation at the time.

But at this point ANet needs to give up with enticing players to move to lower population servers and just wipe out the entire bottom bracket and merge those servers with different ones.
ET, FC, and AR are probably the 3 lowest population servers. Each are bleeding players every day to higher population ones because ANet keeps pairing these servers up against others with 2, 3, or 4 times the population. I’m confident that if any of these 3 servers had real coverage for the midnight to 8am timeframe they’d have no problem rising through the ranks. But when you’re outmanned at even your prime time? Come on…. something needs to be done.
we dont really mind being outmanned at prime because when we field around 30 we usually wipe anything they throw at us.. but yeah I wish we had some overnight/morning coverage.
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
Lol @ the [GEN] ranger and guardian that used a stealth trap on me in our 1v2. I’m that good that it was worth using a trap on me? I’m flattered.
you were probably just perma stealthing 95% of the fight and they got bored of it
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
IoJ and FC are pathetic that they need to team up to fight us. its soooo SAD!!! very sad.. learn how to play WvW without hacking or tagteaming.
says the server that has the worst battle skills and completely relies on sheer numbers to ever win, and loses almost every fight of equal or close to equal numbers.
Lol says the guy from the server that sent waves of people to try and take their garrison back just to get wiped time after time the commander even asked us to just leave which we did when they finally stopped trying to push for it.
sorry I meant they rely on sheer numbers and arrow carts.

Gotta organise, on Kaineng we don’t have the numbers to match other servers but we trained all guilds and pugs to all basic WvW strategies like moving in groups, fire/water field, buffs and combo.
Its working very well, whats killing us on the ranking its our lack of 24h coverage. so we end up losing, but on the battlefield, most of the time we win the fights when outnumbered most of the time.
by outplaying your enemies you may counter their number. just gotta organise with everyone for this.
It’s gone so well over here, we had few ppl who started to join Kaineng even tho we ain’t high pop top of the list server.
A guild even asked us to pool them golds to help them transfer and most guilds contributed.
so Yeah Anet system blow but you can counter it
dont worry about it FC wins every equal number fight, ever, and when we have an actual organized zerg we dont lose (unless siege is used or there are around 2.5x more than us)
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
Sitting dead inside a keep, waiting for someone to rez you through the gate is pretty lame. It’s pretty obvious that isn’t working as intended, I guess I overestimated Core’s class.
oh yes Core
the guild that me and a buddy 2v8’d, killed 3, downed 2 and finally one of us died. then they laughed on us.
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
it’s 30% on crit though which would make it 3% of all hits. doesn’t seem like he would hit people 30 times in 5 seconds I keep it proccing but who knows.

First, I’m out of town and won’t be able to play at all in this matchup until Monday or Tuesday.
In my experience, average player skill level is somewhat higher in lower-ranked servers. This is not to say that players are better: simply that they’re devoting their time and effort to a different aspect of gameplay: solo/skirmishing versus group-play. If FC or IOJ (or DH) were to play a tier 3 server, I believe our players would win a majority of 1v1 or 3v3 situations, but lose almost all 15v15 or 30v30’s.
The current system makes this matchup unfortunate. Either Darkhaven goes all-out in an effort to stomp IOJ and FC and gain points, or they ease off to encourage competition and lose points, thereby making a future rematch more likely. Is that what you really want?
In any event, there are many of us who welcome 1v1’s and small-group matches. Feel free to PM or /w me or my [PD] mates or a number of others if you think all DH players are zerg riders.
True most of us in WvW from FC devote ourselves to Skirmish and solo / roaming, so far i havent been impressed, lol except PD but PD only so far has come in groups not really a solo wise, but i still got most of them down to 10% and 50% a necro, a mesmer and a guard or warr, I wanna see you all in duels this week, I need some new fresh faces!!
yeah nothing special in terms of roaming so far, but Ive only checked out EB. Ill roam in some BL’s tomorrow when I have time.
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
I wouldn’t say a pug is a non major guild member, more like someone who has little knowledge of what WvW is and don’t understand what they should or shouldn’t do
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
Well, this isn’t going to be much fun.
Sorry FC, still rooting for you guys. But you might want to defend your entire BL / Corner of EB over SM next time. You get pushed out and we get focused on entirely by DH. You had the numbers to do it for sure. I was trying to ninja SM from you with 20 when out of nowhere you had 75-100 people hit us from behind lol. Really though, we were hitting DR pretty hard for a few hours. I was hoping you might capitalize on it, but choosing SM over your entire BL . . . :\
DH, what are you guys doing? I understand it’s fun to come out strong on a reset, but you do realize that you’re going to make both FC and IoJ just want to give up, right? I’m not to keen on an essential 1v1 with DH because you demoralized FC enough to where they don’t show up at all. You keep going at this rate, and nobody is going to be in WvW. Do you really need to capture all of EB, all of FC’s BL, and have half of our BL? If you keep it up, I think you’re going to have an entire week of absolutely nothing.
Also, if you’re going to spend 2 hours throwing hell down on our EB keep, at least charge the thing. We had outer gate, 2 outer walls, and 2 inner walls down. On top of that, you easily had 3x our people. Even then, you had 2 trebs and 3 catapults hitting right around the choke points. And you wiped all our siege. All that and you sat there long enough staring us down for the blasted thing to fortify, only to start trebbing it into oblivion again.
On a more positive note, CORE had some good fights with you in your BL. Not sure why you hopped maps after we wiped you once though :\ . Or why you had literally 10 people in DRBL at reset. . .
seriously don’t know how it’s even possible that we lost our whole BL when we had several guilds dedicated to it and at least 40 people.. even with a queued DH we shouldn’t have lost EVERY keep and tower
shoulda been there, was pretty ridiculous
i go towards a camp and get swarmed by 20-40 dh when they were holding everything in the vicinity, AND we had major fights going on elsewhere in the map. wtf were they even doing there? idk. happened several times.
BUT GUISE WE HAD SM!!!!!!!!!!!!1
idk man EB and FC BL numbers were almost the same. our Zerg in EB wrecked pretty much everything DH and IoJ could throw at us so it gave us more control in the map. by when I was in EB, defending SM was lesser importance than keeping our section.

nope because when I could be considered a pug everyone wouldve been a pug, thus there were no pugs..
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
this glitch is actually a lot worse than some of you guys realize, needs to get patched ASAP.
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
it’s auto loss against decent players, they were decent players. tough luck.
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
Yup you euros play too much haha
anyway the higher the the tier in NA, the more organized guilds. Not necessarily more skill or less pugs, but often because there’s more competition to fight in upper tiers the higher skilled guilds are usually up there as well. In terms of small mans, on average lower tiers are more skilled. since there’s much less players though, the actual number of good players comparing low and high is about the same (BG and NSP for example)
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
also although I was lagging too hard to actually fight at fight club.. VLK made it worth it to show up. way to go guys that was fun.
Sharks With Lazers [PEW]
Loved the small fights in FC borderlands yesterday. Even the fight at bay. We were just ramming the outer door trying to attract some attention hoping a few would come out and fight. 5 mins later the outer door is down… WHY?
because its ferg and the average population is about a third of yours

Here is a guy from Ferg’s crossing that glitched himself into Lang. I entered lang then he did Whirlwind assault and he was inside able to kill me. In the 1st picture he accepted my party invite and I got his name. He said “It was a accident” when he entered Lang twice.
+ Why does he look like a ghost? Looks cool.Teleporting into towers and keeps is quite intentional since it requires a certain spot on the wall to get in with judges. And he obviously kept doing it/used it to his advantage. Which is an obvious exploit.
He looks like a ghost to disguise what he actually looks like, so if someone screenshots him, he can’t be identified. Only real use for that tonic.
But you got him into party, so we know who he is. Lols on himScreenshot, send to arena net.
youre funny though. I used it at the front gate, attempted to do a JI + WW combo before he got into the gate but I was too late. too my surprise I still downed him and somehow I was inside the tower. a bit later after that I wanted to see if I could do it again from the same spot and it worked; I left immediately after. I use the tonic because it looks good.. I always use the tonic.. look at my sig. the glitched gate at langor requires no special positioning except that you be in front of it apparently. so lols on you
So you do admit you wanted to exploit a glitch. “Wanted to try again” is still against the rules. You took the time to “Finish” me off when I should have been safe from you, And then you killed that poor defenseless npc. I don’t care if langor was under the control of fergss, but since you wanted to try it again, that is exploiting. You basically just told on yourself lol.
yep checking to see if its a repeatable glitch is exploiting. ok.

Are people complaining because people are running solo roaming builds while solo roaming? Do you nubs really think they are going to run a build with no escape plan in case of a zerg running after them, because they are going to sit there and eat the damage cuz dog. Either way, any 2 – 3 compatible players would never lose to 1 person no matter what build they are. Stop sounding like idiots and play the game for fun, not to lose and get mad like half of you here, because you look like this guy,
but its not fair to run stealth classes! its only fair to run 2 guardians in a 5 man group

Bonus info, the trait “Retributive Armor” does not take the extra toughness from Strength in Numbers into account.
Very tiny increase in precision if it did, but still worth noting it is not working…intended or not.

Why dod so many players so quickly scream nerf the necro. I play a necro and a engineer in WvW, and both are condition damage builds. I do play my engineer as a bomber at times. I see so many remarks about limited condition removal open to each class; has anyone mention certain races have condition removal, take a look at humans. To my dislike, the game allowed all races to be whatever class they wanted to play. If conditions are killing you, then run more condition removal, or use a make-up kit, that might alllow you to change race? Thieves killed me all the time when I first entered WvW, I added lots of thoughness and hp and I found myself living longer and sometime winning against them. every race and class has strengths/weakiness and those strenghts/weakiness are by design to promote group play. I’m a full condition necro, and I dont mind at all spreading the love on the battlefield. Master of Conditions? My engineer can reach about 2400 CD, and I think rangers can also, I wonder about the title “Master of Conditions”.
they cant transfer and remove condis as well as necro, making necro the literal “master” of conditions; though they may not be the hardest hitting. regardless, I believe that condi engis and condi rangers are ridiculous as well. Condi engis however use projectiles and are thus at least able to blocked or reflected.. then rangers dont have ridiculous repplication and you can actually see their skills so its easier to dodge. so in the end necromancers are basically unblockable conditions and can easily kite as well.

Can’t see why sPvP is just brushed away. If you want small-scale team based fights, it’s never been easier since custom arenas…
…
Seriously, if you don’t care about the keeps/camps/points, and your favoured scale is 10v10 or less, you’re pretty much the perfect match for custom arena pvp.
Because it’s all secretly a ploy to make threads like this, instigate conversations like these, and in between the fights that they do get by whacking the nest thusly, they like the fact that they do this sort of fighting in WvW because they get to gank and back-clap about it. It’s evident in the things they’ve posted in match-up threads for months.
sPvP is in fact too fair for this lot.
Troll all u want to man don’t even know who you are. Fact is we’re kitten ed off we spent a year playing a non-developing game.
YOU KNOW WHO I AM
but it is sad that there arent more roaming groups in the game, even Ive tried to put one together several times, but people are usually A) uninterested B) they leave too soon after creation or C) they suck

Oh, for everyone thinking VS runs with equal numbers of the zergs we fight, or think we need Pugs to help us, you’re wrong. In our previous video, one of you talked about all the green dots on the map. You should all know that they flock in when there is a fight near them, they don’t do that much though. In this video though, you’ll see we win these fights without any help. We were fielding about 22 this night. You guys do kill us sometimes, but I will say 95% of the time we wipe, we only have about 13-17 VS members, I don’t count the rest, nor do I care if they’re with us, as they’re mostly rally bait and actually helping you guys.
Here ya go: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGATIyNEs7s
Oh, shoutout to Deth, WZ, IoM, and a few other guilds for the awesome fights throughout the week. And someone asked where we came from, we came from Ehmry Bay. I want to fight t7/6 servers next week for more zergs. After seeing TC madness, I don’t think any size zergs will scare us away.
but where’s the video from last night where you had 10+5 pugs lose several times to 4-5 of us in SF BL? ;(
