Due to the last update and removing Cannon Ball, Pirates Peg, Gears and Molachev kittentail (great name, btw) from WvW, there’s no more way to fight while under transformation effect. I believe that Dolyaks and Quaggans discrimination has gone way too far. Now, when players see a Golden Yak from other team – they won’t flee in fear, no, they just one shot this glorious creature. They will kill every baby quaggan and loot its body. And upcoming cats for 100 laurels – that’s the point of it in WvW anymore? We can’t even use siege weapons!
Anet, I hate you, I really do, but can you please at least let players to use creatures’ abilities under transformation? And besides, with 1.2s for a tonic it’s a great gold sink.
Gears are pretty expensive consumables to spend them for dredge.
WvW is the way to go.
No one said a word about Gears.
Gears.
So much crying, huh… Well, maybe it’s better that way. It’d be kinda scary to suddenly have a bunch of good necros in wvw. So, please, by all means, make yourself thieves since they’re really useful in large scale fights.
Watch all the videos in this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/necromancer/Necromancer-tutorials/first
As for yours, it’s bizarre and more likely will get you dead in any competitive part of the game.
Greatsword warrior guide for WvW:
Step one: Use 100 blades in wvw once, kill couple of people by surprise.
Step two: Run from every singe ranger you see.

Don’t run dungeons for now, then. It’s not like they will be gone or something.
People value their time, it’s natural. Your progress is your own problem, just like in real world.
Ebay using gears. just sad.
I’m using them while being a golden yak. Gets me a lot of hate and death, but still fun.
We should all use gears while we can.
Boreduuma Borderlands. 5 AM EST. 0 people in the mumble channel.
Also, I just autorun from our citadel to east keep while posting this message and no one killed me.
Fractals are kitten
/thread
I made a guardian just for dungeons runs and have no problem finding groups.
Even on my necro I can always find a group on gw2lfg.com for cof, even though it’s full of kittens.
Farming is different, but yeah, if somebody wants spend his time with brainless farming in a CoF 1 – warrior class is just for him.
Nothing really happened at Boreduuma Borderlands today, so I made a shrine to the Great Lord Flame Ram. http://youtu.be/cmaoir-MT2w
Was kinda interesting to see how all 23 rams and 2 golems despawned at the same time.
More pve? No, thanks.
Ok, have a tier 3 response:
http://youtu.be/7eL7hsuB3u4
Came here for awesomeness.
Left with disappointment.
Warrior – smash!
But the ram part was fun, I’ll give you that.
I’m flattered to see so many wasted golems on our paper keeps that we don’t even bother to defend…
On the other hand, 1 omega and like… 5 alphas flipped DB’s garrison today. Was fun.
And 6 alphas almost took FA’s east keep, but then the keep lord screwed us with dying outside the circle =_= Oh well.
We are playing a new game lately.
If you see anyone from [BT] chuck gears at them. Whoever gets the most hits wins.
Oh, thanks for reminding.
I need to stock up some gears for that anet’s employee from FA.
Nice Halo, but I think something about you using kitten Surfers’ is making youtube suggest I also want to view videos about ostomy bags.
In my case it’s some gaming videos and FIFA, for some reason.
I suggest to clear your cookies =)
Mag guild tag STRM you have been reported. You were exploiting the bugged invuln spot in SW supply on DB BL. Either take your lickings or get off our map… That stupid fight lasted too long and when your chips were down you just went to your invuln spot where you could still do damage and then get back up there if we were pushing. This is beyond unacceptable.
Thanks, I was wondering that to do this morning….
Anyway, since DB* love their SE supply treb spot, I want to show everyone a simple way to it from east keep: http://youtu.be/kffj67GSKrg )
FA, DB, whatever…
(edited by Halo.8976)
There’s a video of the bug: http://youtu.be/tt-vOnmflJ8
Got me killed couple of times, because couldn’t use heal or stun break =_=
Illustration of the whole match:
FA has more siege weapons on our walls than we – people.
I hoped to have some fun at least during reset night, but guess people are sick of it and decided to have a week off. Can’t really blame them.
Yet another exciting pve week on Maguuma!
Hello, Obal.
I’d like to run Arah with you, when you have time. AH guardian, full exotic.
Like everybody else I have an experience with fractals up to lvl 18ish and CoF.
I did it once, never going to do it again. Is there a way to hide this horrible paragraph of useless text about this miserable story? Or we cursed to have be reminded about it on every single new character?
One kill is a lie. 1:27 and 1.35 is the same footage.

You’re screwing it up.
Yak’s Bend did.
I’ve always wanted to spell LOL with flame rams in an attacking borderland visible from Garrison cliffs. But we would need to have an upgraded, fully supplied West Keep and everyone flash building simultaneously to have a chance of getting them built before it gets zerged down.
Edit: and then we would probably lose our West Keep.
It will be extremely difficult, since siege placement limits are bizarre and somebody always can screw you over just by placing one more ram. But yeah, it worth a try.
I Actually talked to the player from Maguuma who was building all those flame rams in FABL He said he was going for the Beseiger title (Supply on seige) and he solos supply camps then proceeds to make 4 flame rams. He has the money to make 3 legendaries and still throw 6g everytime he needs another stack of rams. He will have a cool title i guess.
It’s a honor to have such dedicated people on our server.
/salute
I think FAers put a treb on one of the boats at one of the bay keeps once. I saw the screenshot in a old thread.
We did that ages ago. http://youtu.be/btZD16QxCVU
Do it or don’t. You don’t need to ask me.
Just suggesting, since your post sounds quite sad.
I’ll find my bit of fun regardless.
But we can’t play offensively when our borderland gets reset every night then spend 12 hours trying to get FA and a queued DB out of our BL so we can even upgrade what we’ve got. We can’t stray far away from our towers and keeps when 3 rams will get a non reinforced gate down in under a minute.
I thought we play for fun, not for points. If there’s no way to hold our keeps – why even try? Why not just go to FA borderlands and flip their keeps, like we did with kain? At least, breaking toys is much more fun than guarding yaks.
I think I found my home…
- Continual work to re-build the way our game loads models and compresses data, to allow for more visible characters/names in WvW in the long run as we build towards removing as much culling as possible from the game.
Translation: in near feature some server will be able to have only 10 players per map, while others can send all 166. Queue fixes all our problems. © – Anet’s way of doing things.
Maguuma’s golem rush in EB: http://youtu.be/9RqVIqG6bKw
It makes me sad, embarrassed and kinda happy at the same time. Stay classy, EB.

No, you still can’t inflict conditions on siege weapons.
What I’m talking about is your condition damage stats apply to siege weapons skills. So, instead of base of 40-ish you can get 100 and more per tick if you’re a condition build.
I could be wrong, but I think the OP means the bleed from carts and ballista attacks are not flat damage but go off your condi damage. That’s what I got out of it.
Yes. Now I’m getting my 110 bleeds per tick instead of 40-ish-something, as it was.
Oh, and cannons can inflict bleeding too.
All arrow carts are belong to us. And ballistas.
to be clear:
No, you still can’t inflict conditions on siege weapons.

Better than nerfs. And I expected nothing but nerfs.
Though, my hate towards anet is still the same. Weird.
Why aren’t you giving the blueprints that you don’t need to people in wvw that may need them?
Because it won’t help him toward his legendary toy.
First post! Though you guys would like to see this short vid I made of some awesome DB skills. http://youtu.be/WCiNBZTe-bs
Pretty good guys! Keep it up!
PBC (pig blood cake) guild dude, it’s him on jaegerx’s screenshot https://dviw3bl0enbyw.cloudfront.net/uploads/forum_attachment/file/41073/gw041.jpg
And a wall-climbing thief from the same guild:

Zerg of 30+ for a single dolyak? =_=
This tier is too epic for me.
I actually like how it ignores enemies for a while, can be used as an infinite shield.
For that you need at least 3 tanky builds in your group. Otherwise it will take 2 or so wipes before rage quits or just reset < Pugs.
…and the other two beating everything back however they can.
Other one, since it will take 10-15 seconds for another person to run back from right switch.
Swamp fractal – you need a mesmer for that? with flesh worm and spectral walk, necro got some nice abilities for this fractal too
Flesh worm is somehow bugged there, it ports me to random places (it thinks that all walls are up or something).
Perhaps I’m missing something, but you don’t need a thief or mesmer for Dredge fractal.
Please, teach me how to activate the panel with pugs without mesmer or thief? Starting from lvl 20.
I like to think of the Necromancer as fairly useful. I’ll say that you don’t “need” any class in a dungeon…
Dredge fractal – need a thief.
Swamp fractal – a mesmer would be nice.
Volcanic fractal – healing guardian, or two.
Though, f fractals. I like CoF so much more.
No, not really. Here’s nothing that only our class can do. Before wintercrap patch our fear was awesome, but right now it’s next to useless since all bosses, champions and legendary are immune to it.
But even so, finding a group is not that hard. After all, there are always more spots than players, and necro in general is better at surviving than most other classes.
Let’s say we are not that useful, but at the same time we can take care of ourselves.
100% not true. Condition builds typically use Cond/Prec/Tough gear which is ideal for condition necros due to multiple sources of “bleed on crit” procs.
1% not true.
I like pure stats (vit/power) more than just a chance to add some ticks.
