Yeah, we we’re trolling so hard…
Doing the only thing we could do, aside from just handing the camp over to you.
Sure, we could let you take the camp and then get picked off trying to get to hills. But, that didn’t sound quite as fun.Not trying to argue with you here. You guys obviously wanted to defend the camp but rather than us waiting for you guys to give up suiciding, we decided to build an AC for fun since you guys kept trying to build AC’s.
Also, you had other options since Hills had 0 supplies, and our forces were either in Hills or at the camp, you could have ran supply to siege up Hills for a last stand. No one would have stopped your forces heading towards Hills since we were all occupied.
Yeah, you kind of are trying to argue, but a group of us tried that only to run into a handful outside south gate. And had we not been at camp you wouldn’t have been occupied regardless…
But hey, we’re saying the same thing in the end, and that’s that you’re large guild group set up a superior ac to farm a small pug group. You guys think that’s cool, we don’t think it’s that cool. That’s about all there is to it.
I suppose you thought it was smart to keep running into this camp for whatever reason? From reading this, I don’t think anyone is gunna agree with you there tho.
If a man’s hungry, he’s not just gunna walk away from the raspberry bush.

That was the point
Seems like just bad argumentation. We’re not both necessarily right.
Prolly = probably. It’s not as slanted as I think you think it is. I’ve had many OK thieves drop dead in stealth while trying to get away because of how I plaid the fight.
You should lose any 1v2 if the skill levels are equal regardless of the classes involved. Thieves end fights quickly in these situations… yes. Thief isn’t the only class that can come out of kitten nowhere and take you down very quickly though.
If you could consistently win in a 1v2 at the same OK or above skill level then your class would be OP and in need of a nerf. I agree… people care about fairness. I don’t see why it’s only fair when people can not be killed quickly in a 1v2 on their own class though >.>
Um, you seem to be the one giving the slanted account. I said 50-50, and I think that’s fair given that there are variations in skill level and performance (depending on external factors) between players who have ‘OK’ skills.
Also, NPC guard and thief vs. a player is not a 2v1. This is not theory crafting. And my point is we should be talking about spontaneous fights that actually happen in WvW all the time. Their spontaneity gives stealthed players (with stealth-related bonuses on top of the element of surprise) a pretty large advantage. Assuming players of equal skill, clearly the player who hits first and does significant damage (and then disappears for a short while) has an advantage. This seems obvious and yet so many people are not honest enough to admit it. I wonder why.
Many classes are perfectly capable of sniping a person at 1500 range. Elementalists can also RtL Bomb someone out of nowhere.
Seems like…..??? Why ya gotta get all technical here for son? While you we’re thinkin about wether kitten is sound or not, that thief jus unloaded a cd-bs combo on ur kitten , twice.
Shoulda been thinkin about whats goin on, not how it happened, at this stage in the game, you should already know.
If we are both not necessarily right, then idgaf, opinions opinions, if you wanna argue opinions then, meh, all i’m pointing out is I don’t see thieves win every fight, I see them loose or run away more often than anything else, oh so they killed you after resetting 3 times??? So they won 1/4 of the fights gg man, gg.
I’ll be leaving this here and forgetting about it, thnx for readin.

I see wars regularly destroy thieves all the time, Necro’s too, guardians, mesmers, engi’s, ele’s, other thieves and even a couple rangers, although i think they’re usually rrr so meh,
I see thieves regularly destroy warrs and other classes too. So who is right?
That was the point
r4420k+ blazetrain
No… thieves would like more viability in other rolls… and complain that they don’t add much to a team composition (go check the thief forums). That’s what most thieves WANT to be able to do. However that doesn’t mean that the current stealth/burst that thieves have is unbalanced. They are actually on the weaker side even in 1v1’s once you get to a higher skill level (why I don’t often play mine anymore). The two are not inherently mutually exclusive.
So what you’re saying is if you compare an elite thief player vs an elite player of another class in a clear 1v1, the thief doesn’t have much of an advantage?
Well, yeah, we all know the classes are balanced around tPvP. This has little bearing on the state of the classes in WvW.
I see wars regularly destroy thieves all the time, Necro’s too, guardians, mesmers, engi’s, ele’s, other thieves and even a couple rangers, although i think they’re usually rrr so meh,
Thief only has one advantage and that’s ppl being all scared when things go invisible, get over that and it’s just a fight.
This is coming from someone who’s pvp experience doesn’t even go back as long as wvw itself, I’m not that great, i loose fights all the time, thieves run like 3/4 fights, if they aren’t tower humpin.

I see yall ganging up on us Ebayers now…
It’s less “ganging up” and more “Oh look! Less defended points!”
If TC didn’t go after your stuff DB would take it. If DB didn’t go after your stuff TC would take it. So we both go after it to keep it from our opponents.
Just the “glorious wonder” that is “coverage” :P
I really think it looked like double teaming all night.
Coverage and what potential tier’s we are all in really has nothing to do with the score.

So after I get my gift of battle (should be any day now), what reason do we have to come back?
Small man fights are what fuel my wvw appetite. 2-10 guys runnin around, takin camps, tryin to sneak some northern BL towers, campin out sw camp trebbin bay to lure ppl in and kill em, scraps at the ruins, ganking yaks and the ppl who defend them, and depending on your match up you can get some interesting fights defending your southern home BL yaks.
Get some friends you pve with into it, find some wvw builds or experiment with your own, have fun with it and your friends, havoc on enemy BL’s is the best for this, find the outmanned buff, make it free!

Nooo!!! to you suggestion, I’ve fought in a garrisson for like an hour before, trying to cap, the lord being ressed tons of times by suicicide warriors, otherwise we probably would have capped it, hell, the first bannering of the lord was probably the reason the fight even lasted that long.
Honestly, if you’re holding something for more than 5 min, it should be how well YOU fight that determines you’re keeping the circle, not the auto res on some pve vet.

TLDR at bottom
This was originally someone elses idea, but it never got much attention, and it has been rolling around my head ever since.
K, so I think this is a great idea to break up zergs. With multiple, mid range realm point worthy capture points in each map, would give small teams and roamers rewards and action fit to what I think would be reasonable and enjoyable for me as a roamer.
Essentially they would just be capture points, ranging from the size of a sentry cap to circle to that of a camp, placed around the maps, hopefully in places within reasonable reach of all servers.
Each one would be on the map, so players can see which team is guarding, if anyone, each point.
The capture of a point would be just like any other cap, but, if no one from your team is in the circle, you start loosing the circle, and the event timer stops.
Once a team caps the circle, they get a 10 minute event, where if they successfully hold the point, they earn the server 10 realm points, plus a small standard event award.
The main reason for this, is so that you won’t have people commin through right at the tick, and holding each one, then running off again.
Some ideas where to put these points;
Borderlands
South east of garrison, by east sentry on the plateau
Where the minotaurs roam (west of garrison)
The raised area in the ruins.
The Center Quaggan island should double as one of these.
The plateau just north of Hills, or the tip of the cliff, south of n/e camp.
Eternal might be harder to get some places for this, it’s pretty tight but;
Around the grub area
The two plateaus/cliffs by Klovan could each have one
The Plateau by Anza, and the open area behind it and the dredge.
I don’t have much else thought out about it, and would like input, if its a good idea or not, exploit prevention, any other ideas at all.
TLDR; King of the hill style cap points in wvw maps to break up combat, reduce zerginess

if you look at all the new content, the new goodies, the new everything that keeps popping up every 2 weeks-4weeks I am very happy.
So keep going Anet! thanks for not listening to the greedy people.
WvW forums…
We have been recieving extremely few ‘goodies’ in WvW since release.So it’s not about being greedy, it’s about you looking at pve content and responding in the WvW section as if it’s the same.
Sactly, back when they introduced southsun/ fractals, think of all the kitten PVE got, what did wvw get? relatively… kittenIN kitten, December, whole new pve world, snowy events, what did wvw get? some kittenin xmas boxes that came out for PVE ALSO, same thing over and kittenin over, what happened last patch, SOUTHSUN in PVE got completely revamped, new kitten got added, and oh guess what… what that ascended backpeice?? Gotta go kitten around southsun for like 3 hours, then pay a kittenin crazy amount of mats or gold (which we all know as wvw players alot of us used the same funds to upgrade kitten or maybe work on some alt or ya know, be helpful to the wvw community), anet has done kittenin kitten for wvw, they baby pve like standing there watching a bosses health drop for 5 min is more exciting than a ranger shortbowing a reinforced door down. Every time you open gw2 and see the lil red bar have to climb from left to right, if ur a wvw player, you probably dont kittenin care.
Am i mad?? of kittenin course im mad, i remember that kitten upgrade my ranger was supposed to get back in november, since then, kittenin kitten, idgaf, seriously, when this patch comes out ill do the same kittenin thing, ill go google “dulfy living story” bamg out this stupid pve kitten in like 2 hours, then go back to wvw to the lackluster bleh that it is anymore.
maybe i need a break.
r4420k+ blazetrain
My opinion on this is that….we’ll this is dumbest thing next to the quiver back piece you put in the gem store. Some of us play this game and work for our ascended stuff. I hate fractals and love wvw but I put my difference aside and did fractals to get my quiver and rings. Now you are just giving way quivers in store and ascend stuff to wvw and pve. Let people work for there stuff and if you don’t like working for you stuff go play another game.
(not give way but make it easier)
Let people work for there stuff and if you don’t like working for you stuff go play another game.
They said we wouldn’t have to do anything we didn’t want to, to get the same kitten everyone else was getting. (play your way)
And its a skin, if someone payed their wvw gold for the gems for that skin, then they worked for the stuff they wanted……………. ooooor am i missing something?

Question: Will these reward chests for ranks be given for people who already have Ranks? For example will a Rank 60 player receive 60 chests?
There will be a system for rewarding players who have already gained ranks. The way it will work is you will have a backlog of 60 chests, if you were at rank 61, and for each rank you achieve after that you will get 2 chests, instead of 1, until you’ve received all 60 of your backlog. These bonus chests should be available for every player who has gained rank prior to the build.
So being rank 158 I wont get all my chests until I get rank 315??
So what if it takes you this long to get all your BACKLOGGED chests. its not like your missing out on anything, or your time was wasted. Now if it took longer to get each level then i could see your concern, but it doesn’t each level after 5 is 5000 Wxp. Think of it this way someone that just starts today playing wvw will need to get 315 levels to get 315 chests you only need to do 157. I would be rather happy if i was you.
Really? I feel dumber for reading your logic. It’s simply not fair for those that have put in the time already. Why shouldn’t they get the chest right away? This is probably something Anet’s programmers cant figure out to do properly, so they implement this system, epic fail.
They’re probably worried about the in game economic effects of however many ppl who grinded out wvw ranks (158?? workin part time i kittenin wish… slow clap) dumping a tone of rares/ ectos into the market.

We controlled all three BLs (total control of our own home BL, at least 2 keeps in AR AND BP) AND held our side of EBG AND Stonemist 4 hours into reset lol. This is after being double teamed by BP and AR in EBBL. +695 at 1:58am servertime was only the icing on the delicious, badge filled cake that EBay already devoured mere hours into reset.

Something I’d like to throw out there
You should only be allowed to use a wp if you’re dead, and you have to use a wp within one minute of dieing or your sent to the original wp (citadel or border wp ect) you can only res dead people when your out of combat. (if it takes longer than a min, tough)
Would just lessen the amount of jumping, but maybe not enough, maybe too much idk, idea just popped into my head.

If I end up downed by the guards (if they have escort) no rally from yak, also the chest they almost always drop, doesn’t award anything.
Am I supposed to be awarded something from the chest, or is it just the 5 supply you get sometimes?
Why no rally, maybe if I’m being downed by a couple teams of close together yak guards I don’t deserve a rally anyways >.<

As I read this I thought… what if they made a map kind of like old Kaineng City in the original gw, it had tons of chokes in alleys and bridges, ramps and stairs and rooftops and tunnels!!! ANET give me moar tunnels!!!!!, it was (and could be) a crazy place.
It could be 1 bl, then we could have the other 2 to theme to the other two continents from gw1 and eb could be something else or whatever, this last bit is a whole different discussion though, thought it was relevant to see where i was going.

You had no where to go? Die with honor then. Sure your a good ele, and i’m personally not afraid to take on w/e class whenever, no matter what the letters in the brackets after their name are.
I also dunno what exactly they were doing as i had jus ran 3/4 of the way around the map listening them whine about you tbh. Also you can’t touch someone in that exploit so its impossible not to let your cd’s reset.
Cool tip btw.Well i did go out when it was 1 v 4-5 of you, but after i put em in downed state the rest of the masses showed up. Not much “honor” in that fight so i ran back to that spot figuring eventually you’d leave and I’d WP out. Instead there was an easy 10 stayed to “camp” me. lol. Still showed them the errors of their ways and managed to get 5-6 loot bags before they finally left and I WP’d out and regrouped with ma server mates.
I agree, kinda lame for me to stand in that spot. Bout as lame as all those camping me, and even lame for AR to build siege on the immune area north of WH by your citidel spawn and sit up there on the cliff with the mass zergs ranging WH when we have it. But meh…was all in good fun and I wasnt QQn or complaining.
Been having great fights with AR and NSP. From what I’ve seen both servers got some great Wv3 guilds. Props to you all and lets keep up the fun fights.

Only to the person dealing the damage and not DoTs.
Honestly, If i smack you with a sword, i’m going to feel where you are, and know where you are, and you should be at least be shown as a silhouette for about a second or something like that, or what about a 1/4 second daze upon being hit while being under stealth? for all classes obv.
Revealed should also last longer per x amount of enemy players around, it should obviously be harder to hide right in plain sight when there’s 20 people running around looking for something to kill.
I have a thief i rarely play cuz I kinda suck at it, but i still drop 2k-5k and over then stomp you way way too easy imo.
Stealth is never my main problem when dealing with a thief, its, and i know its also been said a billion times over, but in the end, it’s the 3-4 hits and game over man, run back from wp and try again. Something needs to be done with the damage, then again, 50% of the time I get killed by a thief, I feel robbed, so i guess it lives up to its name.

Short answer……. NO imho
I am a die hard ranger style player, every game, this is the kind of class i play, and it just doesn’t feel like your the sniper you should be, your pet does not ALWAYS fell like a threat, although a nicely timed kd, fear, immobile or some might provided at the right time does really help, and I really really really feel like being a nature/adventure type of class… why oh why don’t we have a condition removal in our own heals??? seriously, that is one of my biggest wtf with the class.
My other big beef being, besides long rang shot and RaO…. wheres a trait or SOMETHING that provides prec, might, fury or even a dmg bonus at x range or something???..(my dream would be x% of crits being unavoidable in some way even over some distance or under/over some anount of endurance or health) warrior is supposed to be a beast at close range and they have all sorts of traits to reflect that, thieves get dmg bonuses for stealth, attacking from behind ect, guard gets the 5% dmg with gs (which i realize isn’t that that important, but still) and other classes get other stuff within the traitlines meanwhile we can shoot a whole 5% further. When it comes to traits for me, it is a choice between “meh” and “meh”
All of that being said, they are in fact getting us closer to my dream ranger, I play basically 99% wvw and a lil pve on low lvl chars to lvl up via dailies. My philosophy on ranger is, your a ranger dude, play range, SoH buff finally lets me “run” around with my sb and lb which has jus changed my life, imo axe/warhorn was jus there to run around and cap the odd camp ect having my sb on backup in case of some actual fighting, then id have to switch up to lb to do what i think i should be doing as a ranger, but alas! no more.
I have full carrion armor 4/6 sup eagle runes and two ruby orbs on the other pieces, full berserker accessories. my traits go 20/30/10/5/5 I know ppl will have w/e to say about this setup but it feels the most smooth to me right now.
I ran wvw for 24/26 hours fri-sat (spend a couple hours bummin around pve at one point running the same build) and honestly noticed a huge difference with my ranger, (I try and be out of danger, drop long range shots and rapid fire, switch to sb when enemies get close to you, dps a lil, escape, back to lb if possible or useful)
Crits on lb in prime situations 2k+ easily, and i’ve hit a few sub 80’s for up and over 5k at times, if I don’t see rapid fire go over 3k i know ive misplaced my timing, you gotta expect a real player to notice they’re gettin slammed and go for dodges ( so you poke em a couple times to let them use up half their dodge)
SoH hasn’t left my bar and Lightning reflexes is in there for a lil escape when needed and i run a spike trap and maybe flame trap to deal with a pesky thieves if need be, maybe even the condition removal or QZ for some good ol quickness, don’t let your pet go into a situation where you wouldn’t send yourself and you have plenty of quickness imo anyways tho.
Place your shots right and play like a RANGER and in wvw ranger is pretty cool where it is right now.
