Well they got culling/haste fixed….Confusion was next, after that I am guessing the nerf-dogs next target will be backstab thieves…People just won’t be happy until they whine enough to get FAILNET to come in and save their bad playing selves….IF confusion is killing you then, you fail, plain and simple….Now sometimes you get stuck with confusion and cant just run away, sucks don’t it…Sometimes I get stuck with 10 stacks of bleed and cleanse/heals both on CD, that sucks for me and sometimes I die.

I want that nerfed, in fact I want it nerfed to where no one dies, no one even goes down. We can just run around and do no dmg to each other and all get participation trophies at the end of the week.

To the people whining about confusion, I say this: go back to the games you came from.

Because Confusion = Spiteful Spirit, Empathy, Backfire, etc from GW1….People all dealt with them, and the hilarious bads like you whined then too.

This is not correct, and if you really do believe this then I don’t think you played GW1 very extensively.

Yeah I know, who needs facts when you have an opinion.

Again, theory crafting is absolutely not facts.

I could say that, since X weapon has 90% accuracy, and since weapon Y has 80% accuracy, in a fight between the two weapons, weapon X will always win. This is not correct.

When people say that “well, he should have paid mind to the purple circles around his ally in the corner of his screen while he was busy dealing with the necro and in the middle of a cast and trying to stay alive” it’s just not credible at all.

There are many variables outside of what people conceive on this forum that have a huge effect on how fights play out.

(In reality I think people are just playing ignorant in a futile attempt to not have their precious confusion nerfed. A futile attempt because it’s pretty much set in stone that I will be nerfed).

O rly? And yeah, just because we don’t want something nerfed that doesn’t need to be nerfed, that means it’s op, naturally. Straight logic.

That doesn’t mean I’m all against balancing btw. Confusing enchantments should be taken care of because it allows for area denial without an AE cap as far as I’m aware. Pry bar is really strong in 1vs1 since unlike confusing images, it cannot really be avoided. And one could think about reducing the general base duration to 3s instead of 5s for some skills. But nerfing it in general would simply make it useless, especially since mesmers aren’t really good at stacking other conditions reliably.

I’ll see your 26/3 sPvP forum post that only states the blatant fact that confusion has not been changed in sPvP at all, and raise you a 10/4 forum post saying that skills will now be split between the various parts of the game. Much like… Hmm… What was that thing that was changed in PvE / WvW but not sPvP? Let me think…

Oh that’s right. Confusion.

Heh.

(In reality I think people are just playing ignorant in a futile attempt to not have their precious confusion nerfed. A futile attempt because it’s pretty much set in stone that I will be nerfed).

First off I played GW1 VERY extensively….Extensively enough to know that Confusion is most like Spiteful Spirit, in that it damages from attacks and skill activation…So many people whined about it that after years ANET finally did nerf it to my recollection. Empathy dmged you on attacks, and Backfire on spell activation. Depending on the enemy I (Mesmer/Necro) would take Wreckless Haste (Factions) and mix in a little Price of Failure, and it would do one of two things: 75% of the time nubs died, 25% of the time smarts would run away. Why? Because of the reasons we have outlined in this thread: that if you build for this trait, you likely can’t do enough DPS to overcome a player that just runs away.

Here we go…

If I told you there is a skill in GW1 that

  • Removes 8 conditions and 8 hexes (basically everything, for those who didn’t play GW1)
  • Usable on any ally within ~900 range
  • Has a quarter second cast time
  • Costs next to nothing
  • Heals the target for ~10% of his / her base HP as well.

Would you be able to list a similar skill in GW2? You won’t. And this is why I don’t believe you played GW1 extensively. Trying to justify GW2 mechanics by comparing them to GW1 mechanics is not possible, because of how different the combat systems were.

How about actually providing some arguments instead of just being sarcastic and aggressive all the time. Everytime somebody posts some actual facts, it’s being silently ignored by those claiming that confusion is op and there’s no counter.

I guess he didn’t realize in the 0.0005 seconds after hitting Save Yourself that he had 12 stacks of confusion on him. Not everyone has the Mind of God, like most mesmers do.

Maybe the pink glow around the heads of the people he was taking the conditions from may have been a little clue?

Yeah. That would be a little clue.

In fact, I think the 100 nades instagib should never have been nerfed. The fact that an engineer uses immobilize should be enough clue for you top pop your 15 condition removals that are always off cooldown and get the hell out of there. Only a total noob would die to that.

Seriously I was doing 1vX’s the same night I got my mesmer to 80. Confusion is stupid OP, and I laugh at anyone trying to claim otherwise.

Besides, isn’t this thread kind of redundant? They already said they are splitting skills for PvE and WvW in an upcoming patch. I can not think of any reason for this, save for a confusion nerf.

you guys are like angry chics that got dumped lol… We beat you even numbers…we cheat…., We beat you when we are out manned……but we had a million people on other maps, Its always something.

After a while it stops being " the feisty server" and starts becoming " The kitteny one"

lets just put away the kitten measuring sticks and have some fun.

When you cheat to win I am not having fun. Also, you consistently cheat even though you outnumbers us two to one.

Maybe it’s because the DR pugs actually wanted to take Stonemist, not fight Zoomhacks and invulnerable siege trying to defend DRBL against the 80+ DH horde?

Did… Did IoJ just golem rush a full paper SM where there was absolutely no one defending it?

Yes, the same golems that were going to be used on durios and bravost until silly ol’ dh decided to push mendons so the golems were used to rush a fully upgraded jerrifers and knock down the 2 rear gates of lowlands keep STILL FIGHTING FOR THIS KEEP

EDIT: The whole time we were hitting DH, DR the little sneaks go and take our hills and hit Ogrewatch or Veloka…even after we saved your corner by hitting DH hard and letting you lot have SM tsk tsk DR tsk tsk

You didn’t “let” us have SM. We went in there and took it from you right as IoJ were about to cap it.

I was there the whole time defending SM, I am certain DR attacked first. When we wiped the first wave of them and pushed them out the broken wall IoJ came rushing our gate up north and broke in.
We had to split our forces in two.
I remember casting a firestorm in the Lord room on both IoJ and DR. At that point DH had already decided to flank you and take back SM later. Then I crashed…

We are definitely not talking about the same cap.

When SM was fully upgraded i even said to the server “The goal here is to get it flipped, not take it” And we achieved that, the second time (just before) We were focused in DH’s corner trying to get their keep hoping you would hit SM and not us for a change!

GG DH your keep defense is amazing…or my strategys really need some work…or both

Great fun tonight, we nearly bloody had it so many times!!!

Lowlands is far harder to take than any other keep in EB. A mentally challenged monkey could defend it.

I’m really hoping this rotating colors change is coming sooner rather than later. I’m tired of crappy blue side.

I dont know what time 7am server time is, because i have mine set to pst. ..but when the scores reset at 3pst we were much softer then we are at 5pst..thats what i was saying.

but as every dark haven’er has learned by now. Ole Gab will find something to say about every post lol.

..surprisingly, No lip flapping about the two of you trying to team up on us though. I hope the alliance between DR and IoJ works out though because its nice to have a challenge. ive been fallin asleep at the keys far too much the past couple weeks.

Is that why we’ve been trampling over you in the open field these past couple of weeks? Well get some coffee man! As far as the ‘double teaming’ I would say that I’ve killed more DH than I have IoJ, but IoJ just can’t put out the numbers DH can =P

This is an exciting week so far! with A-net pushing the reset back further into the bankers shift We were really caught with our pants down because of our lack of coverage..and if i can be honest i think alot of folks are starting to lose a lil interest in the matching. Then take into consideration that the other two servers are teaming up on us and i think we might actually have a challenge on our hands.

This has made things fun again! ….lets rock.

Jaxx of Grim

I agree. Here is an image showing DH’s lack of coverage at 07:00am server time.

Fun fact: At the same time I took this screenshot, you were flipping orange swords on and off outside IoJ Overlook too.

Supply, it’s what you get from a supply depot.

Everyone is anonymous in WvW.

You can get most things from loot bags.

You don’t, unless you have guild buffs to use. They will apply to anyone in the vicinity.

You will only get XP if the players die. When they are behind a gate like that it is easy for their allies to revive them.

Shockingly, the DR have managed to snatch the lead again, though just barely!

Will Darkhaven start bringing out pictures of outmanned DH surrounded by a horde of ravenous Devona’s Rest with unusual siege placement? Will the IoJ finally unveil their secret plan? Will half of the DR playerbase be hospitalized at the end of the week for sleep deprivation if they can manage to keep the maps being painted green overnight?

Interesting. Word has it that an off-peak hour guild moved to DR and that is helping to stem the loss of PPT overnight? We already knew that DR had competitive numbers during NA prime since we’ve won reset nights and quite a few evenings already.

Coverage is everything.

Rather, I suspect it has something to do with the free trial that is happening this weekend.

Oh, and no we don’t have coverage. We were out manned for about 12h straight yesterday in both EB and DRBL, and yet the massive DH zergs completely failed to capitalize.

I don’t know what you guys are talking about. IoJ was attacking us all of last night.
Also, it’s pretty silly to think that any of our servers are coordinated enough to focus on just one opposing server.

Dont know if youve noticed, but DH is the powerhouse server this week, teaming up against them with DR (stronger that us on reset) Will in the end give you guys more points, thus making us in last place, where as on the other hand, taking points off of you will inturn help get us to second

For some reason IoJ wants to stay in a tier they don’t belong in. Will be funny when we both meet in a tier we belong in and DR absolutely smashes IoJ lol.

"Why are you following us?"

in WvW

Posted by: Gab Superstar.4059

Gab Superstar.4059

Because we’ve been on T7, found it too easy, moved to T5, found it too easy, moved to T4, found it too easy, moved to T3, found it too easy, moved to T2… and we met our match.

So presumably, all the players on T1 servers are more skilled than you are?

No, but if we were to transfer to T1, we’d have a harder time than on T2.

Ah so basically you’re stating that you are more skilled then everyone else in this game, got it.

T1 generally mean cream of the crop. zerg/gank/duels etc.

So now that you transferred down does that mean you turned into less skilled players?

EDIT: I have been to every tier imaginable, and I have played both on European and NA servers simultaneously. The individual skill of players in higher tiers is nowhere near as high as in lower tiers. That being said, higher tiers are more likely to be filled, to a much greater extent, with people who only WvW for points, and being pretty hard core about it too. This leads to better coordination and organization on a server wide level, since your WvW population isn’t made up of 80% pugs who just so happens to wander into WvW that day.

Do the 20 man you are looking to fight need to be organized ppl or just pickups preferebly upscaled ?

The 20man can be organized or not. As long as the small guild has the skill to fight them. Im looking for the one skilled guild above all.

You might also look into ADD NOQQ and BTSY not sure what servers they are on now though… Of the ones I mentioned I’d say XOXO/SPCA aren’t really focused on synergy and supporting each other rather just skilled players who run together.

OG has fought and killed ADD, NOQQ and BTSY. Need something better than that.

You did? O.o

Seemed to me like you ran back to invulnerable spot or got wiped while having a buffed supervisor for the most part.

If I am mistaken please correct me.

EDIT: Don’t think any of the mentioned guilds would want to take you in btw. PAXA is pretty adamant about their 5-man and is only looking for specific professions.

And which guild are you in of the three I mentioned? If I have it ill supply screenshots.

I was in none at the time, I can provide videos of what I mentioned if you would like though?

Apparently AD stomped you real hard in the field, and then Bunzy asked for a 5v5. He was denied and started bragging about how they won the GvG (that never happened), concluding that OG is better than AD.

Neither T5 or T6 has queues on reset night. Don’t know about T4, but I don’t believe it’s much different, since all T4 servers have strong overnight presence rather than a strong prime time presence.

T7 does have queues on reset, mostly in EB, but also if theres a push on a certain BL, then theres a queue….

PS: Stay in your elite tier, no queue avoidance down here.

I’m not here to verbally spar with you. It wouldn’t accomplish anything anyway. If you have a hate-on for DH that’s ok. Hopefully you’ll have someone new to fight soon and you can tell them how they’re only winning because of numbers and coverage.

Here is a funny little quote for you. What I say about numbers is my honest appraisal and not something I say because I am losing.

My honest opinion is that EB is the most organized server out of all three in this match up. They consistently make use of better strategy, whereas BP and DR quite often compensate with numbers.

I ended up putting my alt account on EB after the match up as a result.

I don’t think DR is better necessarily, they are in second due to better coverage (did I get that right?).

snip

Wut? Rather, in terms of points DR is superior to IoJ. I think that is as clear as day to everyone?

Ok, so what is the reason you’re beating IoJ in points? Is it because you have better coverage (which is one of the reasons DH is stomping the scoreboard) or is it because you are just better? Cause imo, I think the reason is better coverage/more coverage when it matters (ie, NA primetime). Not an attack, just a man tryin to understand ( so please treat it as such and don’t go all atomic on my kitten )

What does it matter? You didn’t follow this discussion from where it started did you?

The end result of Darkhaven focusing on DR will be the same, it doesn’t matter why DR is superior to IoJ. All that matters is that we are, and that this match up will stay as is for much longer due to Darkhavens actions and DR’s superiority.

And I think all servers in this match up made it pretty clear that we don’t want to be in it anymore.

Is it possible to face-palm yourself into delirium??? You kitten all over us for supposedly saying we’re better than you and now you roll with this? Wow.

Pot. Kettle. Black.

Being superior does not mean that you are better than DR in any way that I care about. I care for personal skill, group synergy, tactics and strategy. (If you haven’t figured this out by now I will just ignore you, since you seem to be ignoring me).

As such, no Darkhaven is not better than DR according to me. However, with the current ranking system, you are the superior server due to your numbers and coverage. This can’t be that hard to comprehend can it?

In reality, WvW comes down to coverage and numbers. Or do you think it’s a coincidence that the higher up in tiers you go, the longer and more frequent the queues are? Rest assured though, there is absolutely nothing impressive about this. Would you prefer to watch a soccer game where every competing team could field as many players as they possibly could, rather than their 11 strongest?

Maybe you should facepalm yourself into delirium.

I don’t think DR is better necessarily, they are in second due to better coverage (did I get that right?).

Wut? Rather, in terms of points DR is superior to IoJ. I think that is as clear as day to everyone?

Seperate reset times for NA and EU

I play Tier 7…..and there is a queue. The last 4 weeks (when SF was in Tier 8 ), there was a queue for multiple borderlands.

SF is obviously a T8 server in terms of population

/facepalm

Tier 8 with a queue. The point is how poor of a change this is, and it screws many people over.
I would imagine that there are other servers with queues between Tier 8 and Tier 3. Saying he should leave Tier 2 to not have a queue is really what deserves a facepalm….

Focusing on anything other than the fact that a better solution to this problem is needed is straying from the point……

The difference is he can’t play at all, because all 4 maps are queued for most of the night.

Now tell me, have you ever not been able to play WvW at all on SF due to queues?

We have worse coverage.

IoJ always plays for second which is why the score between IoJ and DR is closer than it should be. DR is by far the superior server.

I’m sorry, I guffawed at that. Everyone thinks their server is the superior one. To make such a biased statement you need solid proof to back it up to be taken seriously.

Is beating them 6/8 weeks enough proof for you?

(Note that IoJ always plays for second too, if DR did that we would absolutely destroy them)

So by your own ~logical~ argument, DR is superior to IOJ because of points! Aha! We’ve come full circle and dearest Gab, we’ll make a scoreboard stan out of you yet.

And if you poke back a few pages in this thread, and wade through the QQ and hallmarks of deleted posts, you’ll see an awful lot of DR pushing into IOJ’s BL, as I’ve noticed this week and has been reflected in this thread. Playing for second place is my fourth favorite hackneyed forum topic. Now we can all have fun with rollplay. IOJ = NSP and DR = AR. Whoot!

Wut? Rather, in terms of points DR is superior to IoJ. I think that is as clear as day to everyone?

Yes, I was kitten off at a special someone who trash talked me and DR on the forums so I decided to turn his Hills keep into my housiehome.

I would gladly take 3 pm.Would plan a guild raid for 7-8 pm but that’s just me.Midnight still sux but at least people in EU get to play for 2 hours and still get some sleep before work/school on saturday instead of nothing at all

I am not a fan of the fact that Anet needs to screw someone over in the 1st place and i really don’t understand why the reset times can’t be separate since the NA and EU servers are *completely*separate in the 1st place.You can’t even guest from NA to EU so this thing really leaves me perplexed.

But ,being from EU i can’t not be glad for getting even such a small improvement.Either way here on the old continent still have it a lot worse than you guys even with this “improvement” and im not rying to make it a justification in any way is just a personal opinion.

See the problem with this on my server will be queue’s. On a normal reset night you have to be on the button/portal to get in, if you miss getting in right at reset you are in a queue for 5-6+ hours, if you get in at all. I would actually prefer a 2am reset, that way there is no big reset push and most ppl would just log on Saturday morning and do their push.

Don’t play on a T2 server then.

Lol, kids go to school on Saturday in EU???

In some countries yes.

School on Saturday is crazy;)

T1-T6 has a long queue on reset night, so that leaves T7/T8, no thank you.

[/quote]

Neither T5 or T6 has queues on reset night. Don’t know about T4, but I don’t believe it’s much different, since all T4 servers have strong overnight presence rather than a strong prime time presence.

Is it guaranteed that we’re getting a new opponent this week?

No, you won’t get a new opponent. If you focused IoJ 100% you would get a new opponent, DR is far to strong to be pushed out even though both IoJ and DH has been poking at us this entire week.

In essence: IoJ is the server that will move down. By attacking DR and not IoJ you are preventing that.

While thats true, it kinda sounds like your trying to get us to leave DR along At least when I read that last line, I get the feeling you’re trying to make us focus solely on IoJ.

The faster I can get rid of Zoomhaven…

gab..you diddnt beat us this past reset night.

secondly. Borlis and anvil have way more “consistent” wvw’ers then we do. their last half of Grave and the entirety of their bankers shift has way more people.

when we would fight them, we would have the lead until sunday morning…then it was like a wave of doom causing me to lick my monitor and face roll my keyboard. We would wake up monday morning and a 5-6k lead was now a 10k deficit. they would get 500 PP ticks from 3-4 am until darkhaven folks got off of work at around 5pm. then as our peak would hit from 7-8pm until 2am or so we would be ahead in the pp’s but it was never enough to make up for that lack in coverage.

“as an edit” i do believe that when we faced bp/ar the last time we diddnt have the numbers we currently have. but im sure as we face some opposition all the fair weather wvw’ers will crawl back into super adventure box and 6 min CoF’s.

all i know is im super excited to face sorrows furnace. as ive heard they have a fire under their rears with something to prove…i cant wait for friday!

You can never have a situation where X & Y populations can play without also having a situation where P & Q can’t play. That is how time zones work.

Yesterday, when at IoJ inner gate, someone dropped a treb and said “build this treb.” The tone of the comments that followed were pretty ugly. We just need to explain why its not the best situation to use something like a treb, instead of insult them and possibly lose a new player who is only trying to help. Or, puts tin foil hat on it was actually a Doctor (new coinphrase for DR player, btw) who was trying to ruin our attempt at taking the objective.

Are you kidding me? Shotgun trebs are like… The best thing ever!

It wouldn’t surprise me if it was in fact a DR player, it seems only our server know of this untapped potential.

“Winning” on reset, lulz. Re-living the glory days of three weeks ago, are we Gab?
Story time! DH got nice and cozy in first place against AR and BP all weekend that week we moved up to T6, only losing our lead Monday morning after we all went to sleep. So clearly, DH >>>> AR and BP. And the server that wins reset is the better server. Clearly. Also following through that logic, DR > DH > AR > BP. So obviously this whole tier thing is just backwards! Someone alert Anet.

Hmm I don’t think you even understand what I am saying. Reset is the time when the fighting is the most equal in terms of numbers between the servers.

And we beat you every time.

EDIT: Btw, I play in T5 too. You have way more players than both BP and AR, consistently and throughout the week.
