Guild Wars 2

I once spoke to a lead from a certain department. I will not say who and when. But he said during their meetings, GvG has been brought up on multiple meetings with the leads from each department and is backed by Devon.

JoshDavies.4138:

The top 6 of SFR, Deso, Kodash, JS, FSP and Gandara is fairly well established, but picking one out of Piken, BB, RS and AR is hard. As others have said, any one of those could beat any other on any given week, and/or push higher servers hard too.

Good info mate. I will wait till S4(when it happens) to choose the 9 gold teams.

So in summary, NA has a total of 7 top servers and EU has 11. And with that 11, its very hard to pick 9 or even 7 of the top performers because they are all almost even?

So it is therefore impossible to compare NA and EU in terms of game wins unless we go with this?

EU
———
SFR
Deso
KD
FSP
JS
Gand
BB

NA
———
BG
TC
JQ
FA
YB
SoS
DB

So that would mean(sorry if i get the abbreviations wrong)

SFR
DESO
KOD
JS
FSP
GAND
AGR
RS
BB
PS

?

Also what servers from that list have really low populations but are there but have low pops?

As I will be adding EU servers to the top 7 servers of NA – JQ/BG/TC/YB/SoS/FA/DB
for statistical chart analysis, i need the top 7 or 9 EU servers. As i see your glicko scores are very close i do not know how i should choose which ones. You help will be greatly appreciated.

scores updated. Some minor mistakes s im too tired to fix :P. Willl do later here is the beta for week 17. I also noticed some sites are outdated. Please give me the new sites or they will be deleted

If anet are to release a new elite that will not make the ELE oped
it should be the ability to grant us true avatar state for 16 seconds where there is zero cooldown during attunement swaps.

Or maybe the ability to swap weapons for 9 seconds with 180second cooldown

the gw2 score still updates the PPK

When you say wild life, are u referring to the hairy Charr ?

What the posters above said. Just buy it from the ELE trainer.

DnD frontline pushes run at 00266 with atleast 650 in healing, 30%crit before fury ,180% crit damage, 22k vit after stacking, and 2.8k armour factor before earth attunement.

Full Cantrips are required giving you LF, condi clear and stability.

In GvG your role is duel. On one hand you can kill the backline and on the other assist the pin.

In zerg fights, dnd frontliners need perfect timing and need to go deep with the commander. Your are an AOE,bombing and blasting bot. Pulling back and the use of your cantrips are something you must learn overtime.

If you die easily, you either are not doing the job sufficiently, or your commander may be making the wrong calls.

Zaxares.5419:

Currently the escorts are laughable as you can just focus the dolyak and the guards despawn as soon as it is dead.

I never figured that one out. It is like the guards are saying
“Im outta of here! Im not paid enough for this kitten”

It is quite normal to lag a tad bit when you have over 2 mega blobs on a map. But if you face this problem even in small fights, it may be something on your end.

We should ask PETA.

Celestial everything is the easiest way to not go wrong. However half celestial and half knights/cav makes it more exciting.

Female Human because of the assets. Female asura because you can make a cute anime looking one.

S4 may have been pushed back another 4 weeks. It certainly wont be just 4 weeks, because 4 weeks is way too shoort and 9 weeks toooo long.

6week Season 4 would be just right imo.

Its a necroanger!

A new hybrid coming in 2016 gw2 expansion

Anet must address the current T3 problem. If i was head of Anet, i would give free transfersin to IOJ and NSP for next 2 weeks

In WvW there are almost no rules. Like the hunger games. Except you can respawn.

Only a WvW player has more badges than gems.

Its the same on T1. Its like a marriage. Infact we are just gonna call T1 JadeBlackGateQuarryCoast.

Ok done. Scores updated and shows last 4 months standings. Nothing frrom Anet if they
are changing glicko, so leaving as is. I wonder when s4 will be announced?
Data taken from both sites – mos and gw2 score

DnD cele ele still can kick some kitten. You just need much more knowledge about the profession(not like it wasnt one of the top 3 most difficult classes to master anyway)

Snowreap.5174:

by request, I’m posting estimated probabilities for the upcoming matchups in this thread also. these numbers are based on the currently predicted ratings (which are in turn based on the current scores), but if the actual end-of-match ratings differ significantly, that will throw the numbers off.

the “na1” and “eu1” files have probabilities of getting a particular server as an opponent, while the “na2” and “eu2” files have probabilities of getting specific pairs of servers as opponents.

-ken

Thanks Ken

As per tradition, Special 16 weeks matchup stats to be presented tomorrow.

Scores may or may not be deleted after HoT expansion if there are drastic changes to the way scores are calculated in glicko.

Based on the wiki and interviews, the revenant looks orientated towards group play. Which is good.

Much of this thread is… random.

But pretty fun.

BY THE POWER OF GAILE GRAYSKULL!

I just had to

Wait for next patch

Yeah i did find the Burning drake a little over-nerfed but it was expected.

I have no real idea about DnF. Havent tried it in nearly 2 years.

It will interesting to see how the classic DnD can fit any other utilities spells unless Anet are giving us new slots.

I am excited about a new elite for Eles aside from our usual FGS.

Lets wait and see how they will roate the current map in BLs with the new HoT map that will be placed as a BL map.

Lesson 1 – Buy PVT
Lesson 2 – Make a Warr
Lesson 3 – Join Teamspeak
Lesson 4 – Follow the Commander/Pin
Lesson 5 – When commander says push, push.
Lesson 6 – During pushing and pulling, make sure you are with the commander
Lesson 7 – Practise some roaming to polish your skills
Lesson 8 – Go to EOTM when you want target practice but BLs when serious
Lesson 9 – Always be kind to your enemies as someday they may be your friends

I tried them, still happy with my classic build. A1 feels more buffed and SoR feels smoother now. Might stacking still is easy for any long term Ele player.

What about the rest of the classic DnD eles?

Anet sanctioned the site after closing the matchup threads. I still have screenshots of their msgs directing players to go the community site after they closed their own matchup forums.

Thanks vyx. Oh can we finally get .gifs

MethaneGas.8357:

Rangers are probably one of the most revolting professions in WvW
Low risk high reward. You basically have to literally stand (as in… not move) at 1500 range. You remove your hand from your mouse and keyboard. Then you extend your one hand and your finger hovers over a button. You then press that button and after a few seconds a bag of loot magically appears in font of you. Huh. Whadda’ya’know?

How I imagine most rangers think

For those that are wondering, this topic was discussed 3 years ago and it was stated by Anet that it would make the ELE op.

E5 blast is bugged.

However casting E5 does retaliate.

gw2wvw.net is down

Anyone knows when it will be up?

There are many options.

However you are still at a very low level.

Remember

- F3 and F4 both create spells u can blast
-A3 and E4 and E5 both create might blast stacks
-Advanced techniques = cast F2 around your enemies then F3 followed exactly byF4. The reverese dodge and while in mid air attune to earth so that u land on either F3 or F4 , and if you must use e5 but stop immediately so that u can enjoy the might blast
-Keep E4 for later
-u may also know that you can get 4 stacks in 1/2 a second by casting f3 followed immediately (within0.15seconds) with A3 so that your enemy is not only burning but also chilled.

So these are some of the ways it can be done.

It will be very similiar to the MLs of DAOC. Meaning,

you will receive the ability (with the emphasis on group)

to specialise in additional roles , BUT in a very minor way.

Example, you will now be able to give group bonus to heal for all members by 5%

The exact specifics are not to be revealed until we can confirm them.

-Added Score points not from tick with PPK% average

- Week 15 post s3 scores.

- Some minor mistakes were corrected

- Added Fan art by Vorddak

SpellOfIniquity.1780:

Relax, wait until it happens and I’m certain it won’t be a big deal.

Its more like , “Dear dev, please read the threads pertaining to the upcoming nerf and think them hard before implementation”

Wishful thinking but maybe the changes will be mitigated by some buffs to the DnD ele? Wait, who am i kidding?

OR just maybe, and remotely possible, the changes will only touch on sPvP and not WvW. /prays

Mightybird.6034:

Is thief or mesmer still best for roaming? Coming back after a long break.

Solo roaming – thief
group roaming – thief or mesmer

TBH play what you like because in a video game, having fun is more important. That and beer. (psssttt..dont play an ele, huge mega nerfs incoming)

Heres a vid my friend made of roaming in t1

Sorry for the delay. Here is the update

In NA T1 – Its 24/7. So anytime is the best time.

diamond skin.

Also the DnD ele is the one class a ranger should run away from. Unless you are a god skilled ranger. Most panic when their health bar drops to half in under a few seconds

Bloodlust was reduced because it was way too OPed when it was first released. Some other good suggestions though

Good idea imo. Some modification required though.

Yaks should be immune to all CC. Also while we are at it, can we have their speed boosted by not just 150% by a further 10% for each player standing within a 360unit radius of the yak? Capped at 200% speed. Also guards in general really need to be bumped up.
