Blocking camp capture while stealth

Bind closest target, spam it and when you get a target CC it, blind is best as it will prevent him from CnDing letting your mob kill him.

You can pick him up as a target right when his stealth ends, your target will go over him even though he hasnt yet rendered.

Unless you are a victim of culling you can still hit him while he is invisible this way.

Poaching isnt an issue if people have free will.

Guilds just dont want to work with other guilds that are actively trying to take their members. Its just common sense.

I dont really worry about it with my guild, because we have a ton of fun every night in our own right, but thats why guilds dont like active poaching. It destroys trust and teamwork.

Dar i take it you didnt have enough people on to man the siege in the lord room or guardian block the door?

Some of the loot you get in spvp is useable outside of spvp, such as bags. And with paid tpvp you get gems. Also finisher abilities can be used in wvw.

Click edit queue and cancel the upgrade

For this reason a confirmation window is uneeded and would just be a hassle.

My personal suggestion to Ferguson’s Crossing as an old school Kaineng player: Wait it out. Devona’s Rest has achieved Northern Shiverpeak status.

Essentially, there were three new servers that were opened up originally; Kaineng, Devona’s Rest, and Northern Shiverpeaks. Out of the three, NSP got the population surge and slaughtered us both one week. Wait it out and they will rise in tier inevitably due to this new surge.

If you still want to WvW, do it in your own borderlands. Consolidate your population to one map where you all can make a true difference, and where they will be queued.

Frustrate them by forcing them to be queued to have fun. Consolidate in your own borderlands, and you will win by ‘Sticking it to the man’.

Hell, I say we choose one borderland man this week to fight in, and only that map. That way Devona get’s queue locked out.

It’s time to stop thinking about points, and time to start thinking about having fun at Devona Rest’s expense.

You are incorrect sir

The three new servers were Kaineng, Devona’s Rest, and Eredon Terrace.

ET got AA alliance transfer to them when it opened and they surged up the charts.
NSP lost AA alliance and tumbled.

For a while it was a release day server VS Devona’s Rest and Kaineng with the release day server completly trashing the other two servers.

The little treb that could.

in WvW

Posted by: Draygo.9473

Draygo.9473


On a day of war and strife
A little blueprint wanted life.
The warriors which were weary
Were losing their fort they held so dearly.

“Pick me pick me!” The little treb said.
The warrior sighed for there was no supply no bread.
The walls battered and crumbled the little treb did insist
“Fine” the warrior said and went to the vista so the treb would desist.

The warrior and his friend did run so far
For supply was only availible on another map thus far
Slowly and surely the little treb was created
As the inner walls and doors were left decimated

At last the little treb was complete
No more will the enemy trebs compete
One by one he blasted them to bits
And the enemy was noticing the hits

They sent a thief who utilized stealth
To attack the little treb and reduce its health
“Help help!” the little treb exclaimed
“Save me before I get maimed!”

His allies rallied and routed the thief
Just in time as the trebs life was brief
With the enemy trebs down
The little treb went to town

Attacking the walls of the enemy towers
But by then the enemy cowers
Fled back to home as the allies freed
The towers that once made our fort bleed


Dedicated to the warrior Delarme and the thief Tashiana of Apathy Inc who ran supply from another map to build the treb that saved the fort.

Dedicated to the little treb that could.

The fort had 5 outer walls breeched 2 outer gates, 1 inner gate, 2 inner walls down before the enemy was repelled. The entire time the besieged were locked in unable to bring supply into the fort.

Dred, we dont have a night crew on kaineng.

We have a morning and US prime crew. no euro real euro crew. When I log off at 1am-2am my time we are usually outnumbered pretty badly. Sure we still have a showing but its not strong.

I think you arent quite pegging when US nighttime is because I’m sure your out there in SoS’s primetime which is 12 hours after US prime.

There are no unpopulated servers.

And Gwal I worked out that system here:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/An-alternate-scoring-system-Accounting-for-population-differences/first

The problem with just fluxing the score based on population is it does not really curb the scores enough. Mainly because the server that overpops tends to take the entire map, even though they get reduced points, the other teams are getting none. So in addition to that, I implemented a bonus system to allow comebacks to occur.

You can make several mistakes in the current JP and still complete it.

Protip (not ment to be ironic)

Logging out with the orb when your server is trying to cap it wont glitch it to your possession

endprotip.

On Kaineng borderlands you guys went for an orb cap, I managed to down the orb carrier at the gate but I couldnt lift the orb because arenanet made it impossible to target items in groups of people (no closest item bind)

So the orb capture group retook the orb and marched near the skritt then started to make their way south to bay. I ambush the carrier again, and right before he goes into the downstate he logs out.

ololol thanks for the orb back. You guys would have easily captured it if it wasnt for that player, I had no hope of getting out with it.

As shana says the bottom tier is a balanced and fun matchup. Ferg needs help. An added bonus is that you will always have a challenge day in and day out, no one is rolling over in our tier, a morale boost to ferg can bring them back into the match as they seem to have taken too many hits lately.

Oh shana, if he listens to you, I’ll put the blame on you for this one.

The reason the rule is there has nothing to do with actual enforcement of that rule.

It’s there for the following reason:

You and only you are responsible for everything that happens with your account.

If you let a friend play, and he spouts racist nonsense in map chat and 200 people report him in a minute and your account gets banned 10 minutes later, petitioning support to say your ‘friend’ was playing on your account and they should be leinent because you didnt do it blah blah.

Catapults are inefficent at killing mobs.

Using catapults is so yesterday in defending doors. Arrow carts are 20 times more effective.

Three arrowcarts behind a door will force the mob to back off or die.

Whats cheaper? 3 arrow carts or 2 catapults
What does more damage over time? 3 arrow carts or 2 catapults.

Answer is always arrow carts. IF they put down 4 catapults they could have had 6 arrow carts instead which would have eaten a mob of 50 tightly packed together for breakfast and spat out a nice bag pile to the siege operators.

Stuck issue

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Draygo.9473

Draygo.9473

It is currently possible to get stuck if your character has next to no money (but not zero money) such that using a waypoint costs more money than you have, and die near a contested waypoint, you will be unable to respawn.

Steps to reproduce: Put money in bank till down to 2c on level 80
Go to any event that flags a waypoint as contested, or any perm contested waypoint till an event opens it (like in cursed shore)
Die near that waypoint
Be unable to respawn anywhere.

Current workaround is to have a friend or guildmate spot you some money so you can respawn.

As far as its supposed to work, you should be able to respawn at the closest availible waypoint, but that does not seem to work.

Its not a bug at the moment.

If you want to kill him blind him as that will stop him from cloaking with CnD

There is a rending lag right now as the game has to load assests from disk that prevents him from appearing right away. To target him earlier bind closest target and spam it till you get a target then CC your target.

Ballista and Arrow carts do not give a kitten about stability either, as they dont knock people down in the first place.

Invunerability is another issue, and i think anet will correct this by making sure defensive healing abilities are 5 capped like offensive abilities, especially shots.

I believe you. I just dont have a personal judgement about your guild. You have HAD a hacker, but you also did the right thing and removed him from the guild.

Some people level accusations without any proof and this might be that case more than any other.

Also fun fights with you guys last night. Stopped a mesmer portal attempt into Sharaden Hills (legit, you guys broke the door down earlier with RED and hid a mesmer in the keep, we didnt sweep at that moment, but we resweeped later and caught ya). Kinda a fun fight started with me and my guardian buddy getting pulled down fighting on that small ledge against two mesmers and a warrior (or guardian, i forget :P). Downed one of your mesmers, then i got pulled off and ran around. our guardian fought for a while but was killed a bit later then I fought up top against your mesmer when 2 more of my guild mates arrived then we routed what you had left.

The small fights make everything worth it.

Oh and we wouldnt have thought to sweep for mesmers if we didnt kill a MGM guy moments earlier in the pass below the keep. So he inadvertantly killed your cover.

As for PRO jury’s still out, but he’s kicked one person out for hacking and another for spying so PM him the account name of the person doing it and let him look into it.

ALso its not idiotic to move the orb when the alter gets blown by the quaggan storm, as the alter wont spawn till the orb resets. It is a bit silly to move it alone without scouting.

New exploit/bug - rezzing at contested spawn points ?

in WvW

Posted by: Draygo.9473

Draygo.9473

Not an exploit.

How its done:
Respawn in a keep/castle is restricted when the defense quest is up.

Defense quest is only up 98% of the time when keep is under attack, for a 2-5 second window after the defense quest expires, enemies can freely spawn into the objective.

How to utilize: Have a teammate in the objective call down the timer as it reaches 0. When it hit zero click the way point and it lets you spawn in.

Should arenanet fix it? Probably, but they should also fix orb protectors flagging keeps and a miriad of other things.
