I’ll also point out that if you are carrying around so much gear to equip for the occasion then you would have no issue tanking up for ACs while you man 5 rams. Lol
6* rams and no problem tanking up at all, it is just boring as hell to have everyone run out of the keep when we get in there and kill their siege instead of actually fight. The Siege vs player is what makes it MORE blobby, not less and makes players think they can’t fight without it.
Siege damage on siege is fine. You take down 6 rams with a superior treb easy.
If you bust in and find nobody inside then that’s a sign that they don’t believe they stand a fighting chance, which indicates that you’re running fatter than you think and need to slim down.
I’ve been on both sides of the blob vs siege arms race and both are garbage. Punishing one does not solve it. The idle players at spawn, the server style of running smaller groups instead of an omniblob, and other factors not considered makes this a poor decision that only takes away from another player’s game because they don’t play your way. I’m just grateful this idea will likely die off like the hundreds that came before it.
When we busted in, they outnumbered us and then they jumped out as soon as we killed their siege over and over and over again.. ( YB). BG put up a fight in comparison, not jumped out like that. That was why everyone considers that style game play toxic.
You are talking about players who outnumber and run in towers and keeps and jump on siege instead of fight, even when we had 5, yes,FIVE players vs 25. Man that sure is FAT. LOLJQ didn’t and MAG doesn’t have an omniblob issue… In fact, BG used to tell us we kept promising to bring an omniblob but could not crap out one to save our lives.. WE KILL omniblobs.. Why do you think I am telling people not to come to WvW with Cheap gear and PvE builds and to be ready to play? You can have a great time if you learn to play and farm the omniblobs.. BAGS for dayz!
You must be the server hero… taking on zergs with only 5 people.
I can’t take you seriously as you’ve been a huge supporter of blobs in past posts and try to justify it. The very idea that you want to take away from others is toxic. The fact you tell others not to come to WvW without correct gear is toxic. Everyone starts somewhere and wants to play at their own pace. Get rid of the elitist attitude and you might accomplished something.
Uh no our server hero was an uplevel drunken guardian who chased off a golem zerg and made them WP.. LMAO 5 chasing a zerg into a tower to jump on ACs was justa normal day for most when fighting that server..
Blobs vs blobs are hours of fun.. why would I not support that? We like to play many ways, not just one. We fight Blob vs blob, 15-20 vs blob, 5-6 vs 15-20. It is all fun. WHy would I not support any of it?
Helping players get good gear and show them how to fight outnumbered=\= elitist. Not willing to learn or get involved in ones server community = not a team player.
“Why do you think I am telling people not to come to WvW with Cheap gear and PvE builds and to be ready to play?” = elitist attitude.
Claiming/bragging to chase 25 people away (to supposedly jump on ACs) with only five people = elitist attitude.
The overall goal of this thread = elitist attitude and a poor idea to boot.

The first week TC wins and we’re already starting with “they have way more than BG”? It’s a miracle that there are still players remaining at all after blobgate bored kitten near everyone away from the game. Without their BG blob numbers they simply can’t fight worth a kitten. Blobby, but not enough to prop up a secured win. Oh well, the wagon gate had to be broken sooner or later. Couldn’t have happened soon enough.
Unfortunately BG gained a ton of padding from their wagon so we’re still stuck with them.
Without a blob to provide a crutch PPT win, I expect the “hibernation” excuse going into full use now.
You guys think one week of being overran with a stacked opponent is bad? Try having to deal with this scenario for three months straight!
Do not count on Anet to intervene and change what has already been put in place. You’ll have to wait it out until they move up (lucky for you that can happen) or until they change links in two months.
I’m assuming you’re on Yaks Bend? The issue is that your population is actually not that far off from BG/TC, its just that your players on your server are disorganized and have little to no skill in WvW. With PPK being a bigger factor now, YB could PPT as hard as they want and still lose because they aren’t good at the fights game.
Yes, my main account is on YB.
Population that’s “not that far off from BG/TC”?? I literally checked a few seconds before posting this and YB is currently on high status while TC is very high and of course BG is full. Try again.
BG blobs. If you believe balling everyone under one tag and then face rolling equates to organizing and having skill I have some bad news for you.
After having to put up with it for so long it bored many players until they permanently left the game. Looking at the quad stack in T4 I see a lot of similarities. I don’t expect players to fix anything; they never have. It’s up to Anet to monitor the players and adjust unbalanced matches in a timely manner. Two months is IMO too long and I suspect more players will permanently leave before they’re spared from such lopsided game matching. The blobbers will kill this game off before beta is even complete.
My time on Blackgate was not spent in a blob personally, and I met several guilds and several others that also did not run with the blob. I’m not saying they don’t blob, but I am saying that isn’t ALL they do. I also want to remind you of why they HAD to do that against YB when YB was 1st place every week – it was because YB would run 80 pugs on a tag and there was no 20 man groups that could take that alone. They had to take their 3-4 20 man groups and get together in order to take down that blob lol.
Now maybe it is just more the norm for them to start blobbing up more often, I’ve seen TC blobs and YB blobs as well, they’re just as bad. Your blobs just aren’t as good at fighting lol. The KDR speaks for that alone.
Ah yes, the “they did it first” argument. I’d go into other things but I think we’re done here. LOL
World versus World (also known as WvW) is a Player versus Player game mode where players from three different servers, or worlds, battle in the Mists. It features open-world combat on five large maps with up to several hundreds of players per map. In World versus World, players can besiege objectives such as Keeps and Towers with siege weapons, and battle over resources, to win rewards for their world and World Experience for themselves.
MMO-A massively multiplayer online game (MMOG or MMO) is an online game which is capable of supporting large numbers of players simultaneously in the same instance (or world).
2 things for you to chew on. Both of those is what WvWvW was designed and intended for. If a server choses to run their map a certain way, so be it. If your server choses to run a map a certain way, so be it.
Don’t try to change the game mode because other servers won’t play to your game style. GvG, Havoc, Roamers and Duelers all take their chances entering WvW encountering a blob.
It is what it is
How very educational.
Btw it’s “chooses”.
Population fix: go outside and socialize until the next big game comes out. You save yourself the frustration of trying to fix something that is not designed to be fixed and you make more friends. Once you free yourself of this WvW mess you find it difficult to find a reason to come back.
Back when I played I witnessed BG (well known guilds) getting hard wiped and constantly one pushed all the time. That’s when they would begin to hump siege or map hop in order to PvD dead maps.
I think it was an excellent strategy to pick off one BG zergling as it would force their entire zerg back to spawn or else they’d risk having somebody on their server run solo until they randevu with the blob zerg. They would all willingly port back to hold hands and counsel their fallen. Lol The trick is to lure them out when they think they have 3:1 numbers, but even then they hesitate…
As for managing to stay in T1, you can thank the massive glicko wall that kept BG/JQ from falling. Instead they remained by default.
