Guild Wars 2

Seriously , why all this points BS , Winners should advance losers should fall all this fancy points crap is just over complicating things that should be simple.

Valiant Sword [ VS ] is recruiting for its WvW army on Anvil Rock server.
Must have :
Ventrillo
17 yrs of age +
Level 80 character fully exotic
Able to listen on vent and execute instructions under heavy fire in WvW
Have a thrist for killing WvW players
Must always represent VS

About us :
Theres 2 co-leaders at VS we have been friends for over 7yrs. Our biggest success was running a top end raid guild on Eq2 that ranked in the top 3 for one of the best raiding servers of the game. Weve been on Gw2 since launch and have slowy been building a army in WvW. We have 50+ members and field anywhere from 1-3 groups in WvW at night. Our prime time to play is from 4pm-1am PST. We are a small but fierce guild when we take the battlefield we change the game. Our tactics are solid and we have the respect of many other guilds on our server who often will allow me to lead them if other commanders need a break or need some sleep. One of my favorite things to do is take over a enemy Keep on their home map and fort it up to the point we build a teleporter on their own map. The core of Valiant Sword are all addicts who rarely miss a night of action , I personally have over 1500 hrs of play time since launch, and over 13,000 confirmed kills in WvW. We also do our fair share of dungeons most of the guild is over frac lv 10 and some of us are over lv 20. Weve completed every dungeon in the game and tackle new content as soon as it comes out.

Valiant Sword is not for EVERYONE , we kick the cRayZiEs and dont put up with people disrespecting or harrassing other guildies. Ive ran highly successful guilds in MMOs for over 7yrs and have zero tolerance for drama. Make no mistake this is a club and its not for everyone but for those who do make the cut we are respected by our allies and feared by our enemies.

I love these people who think the JP is supposed to be a fluffy warm place to hug and help enemies through to get free golems …..they bring me badges.

Yes I too miss the orb , it added another layer of strategy to WvW that I hope to see return.

When I play my thief I lead with S/p to catch people off guard and usually hit them really hard right off the bat then after I open I switch to D/D and finish the job , usually a heart seeker with a steal plus a back stab does the trick.

I really like the crossbow idea I could totally see that working!

Been playin guard since beta the 1 handed sword is weak … I want to like it but I can’t. The lack of damage on the #2 skill makes it unpressable unless your in pursuit, and the #3 skill is weak because you have to stop and cast it. Stoping in this games is a invitation to die and why would I want to stop to cast when with a sword I need to be close to my target to hit it? # 2 skill needs more damage attached to it or a cripple on next hit and the # 3 skill needs to be able to be cast on the move because in its current state u have to cast #2 if you cast # 3 just to catch up to your target again , unless its a mindless Npc.

Whatever you guys did to " fix " culling made it a issue for me where I never had a issue before , please flip that switch back the original position because this is broken.

Is NSP still playin? We took over the entire ( except bay , we felt pity) NSP map today with like 15 people and seen about 3 NSP … Didn’t u guys get transfers ? It’s no fun if u just lay there and take it, at least give alittle struggle sheesh.

I am new to NSP and am shocked at the lack of wvwers. I went from a zergfest tier to a ghost tier.

Just to let you know when you rolled in with your 15 man group, our outmanned flag went on. I spent all morning upgrading and running supplies to build oils and siege, and it was all gone in 15 minutes. Oh well, cest la vie.

Oh and by the way, 2 superior rams and 3 regular rams for a tower when there is no resistance? Here’s a ‘sheesh’ backatcha.

Failure to lack of siege was not gonna be a option : )

Anet needs to get on the ball and fix it to where people cannot jump over the walls , it’s not a hack its simply a cheat people can literally jump up and over walls and take objectives believe me I looked it up when we lost a few towers last week from cheaters taking keeps without a stick of siege it’s hard to catch the cheaters on camera but if you watch utube at all u can see people jump walls in certain places in less than 10 sec , it’s sad that losers have to play like this and it’s worse that the problem hasn’t been fixed yet.

Weak completely weak … If you have cheat to TRY and win you’ve already lost.

Lol this thread is so empty other mathes are already on 5 pages lol
Cmon ppl where is the competitive forum warriors? Surely BP in the lead doesn’t make everyone a sad panda? No winner is decided until the last hour! Last round BP came back then lost by a hair to AR, was a great match. I know NSP can pull out great numbers to defend(I remember from the failed golem rush recently lol) and we know AR can walk all over NA primetime. Get it into gear ppl!

LOL This match up is like an old married couple at this point we’ve run out of stuff to say to each other.

NSP take a aspirin and assume the position.

-K

Ya we had to take a rest so I found a vacation home on NSP up at Hills , stop on by guys we have a teleporter there now , so just cozy up to a superior arrow cart and take a rest let the badges come to you saves all the walking.

Sleep tight Rob don’t worry about your Garrison ill take good care of it till u get back Muhahahahahaha …….

Thus it begins…again.

ANVIL ROCK AWSOME JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BP and NSP ty for the best WvW match up yet it was soooooo close we all were on the edge of our rolling chairs =)

Was nice to go clean up Bay on BP this afternoon with the 8 golems we made this mornin you guys liked them teleporters way too much. You did pinch us at water gate though you sneaky jerks =) but I see ALS got your Hills teleporter later … when will your Garrison fall again … only the shadow knows….btw your blitz on ARBL last night at 2:30 am You owe me sleep.. and 15 other people!
Keep up the great fighting I enjoy the challenge!

Dark Aidget.3879:

Heck of a fight at BP’s bay tonight. That was epic. Proud of my Borlis.

Ya great job that was a EPIC fight very fun even though we didnt get your lord , we held that tower for 3hrs against every attack you guys could have thought to thrown at us over at Bluebriar. You get to keep bay tonight , but my 8 man team got your Garrison last night =) one blue dot in the middle of the map hahahaha you have no idea the hell we went through to swim them golems there on a completely green map.

I don’t want to get into this ego stroking between PAXA and VS, but personnally,

I could outrun a centaur

Now thats funny =)

Jscull.2514:

Dovgan, I actually gave credit to your ranger the other night in vent. Said you last longer than most, even solo. But we are here to kill. PAXA is driven by # of kills /night, that’s the only thing that matters to us. If you are red and in our visual, you are #10,634 for me, even up to 12,001 for two of our guys.

The only player, Hammerhorn, that has been relatively impressive from VS has been the black robed mesmer. The verdict isn’t out for the rest of the guild, simply just a mob of mindless zergers (aka burger-eaters).

You only have 10k kills? Your weakness makes me laugh =) Will be lookin for ya dont you worry, we like the easy badges.

Its been a great match up this week the fights are close and about as fair as you can get . I just wanna say ty to BP and NSP for trying so hard to enter our border lands by repeatedly using your break out events even though you were crushed each time , for all the badges and the great laughs on vent as we hunt down guilds like Paxa , Hunt and Seks. Your attempt on Bay last night was sooo close thank you for leaving your tower unguarded so we could take the wall down with one cata and wipe all 3 of your trebs only to build a treb of our own and save our bay by killing all your well placed catas. Sorry for ruining your Hills keep today on NSP I know you guys spent alot of coin to make that teleporter Im sure Os will have it back up by tonight = ).
REALLY though this has been such a close match up its still anyones game this week and Im loving the competition. My guild will be hosting a fight club on ARBL down by champions supply camp on either Thurs or Fri night. Let everyone get some good 1vs 1 match ups out of your system hope to see some of you guys there for a good clean time and some fun.

The fight club in WvW last night was awsome , the best thing to happen there all week! Im the leader of Valiant Sword [ VS ] it was mostly my guild and Twin guild playing in the fights from Anvil Rocks side and we were having a ton of fun. I was impressed how civil everyone was lining up taking turns and having nice clean 1v1 or 2v2 fights. I was very disapointed at one guild from our server that needs not be named because everyone there knows who Im talking about for their cowardly attack on the event trying to bring shame to the Anvil Rock server.
Oh and to the elementalist that fought me soooo long that they had to stop the match well played sir , and to the others that fought me thank you for dying with honor = )
Guild Leader of VS
Hammerhorn Da Great

The focus of this thread is to try and come up with some possible fixes for problems in WvW and please add to the list IF you have a solution for a problem no needless crying plz.
1. SIEGE – make siege disappear after 2 hrs of not being manned or reset the timer if manned, its not uncommon for me to lead a zerg into taking say Hills and throw down 10-20 pieces of siege run everyone around to camps to gather supply and build the place up only have it all disapear after we come back from a raid on other towers when we were relying on it to be there. Also on these runs when we come back I ask everyone to fire the siege to keep it from vanishing this seems boring to all. Make siege tradeable in the guild bank. Allow players who placed siege incorrectly to pick it back up if no ones put supply in.
2. TOKENS – Currently tokens are equal to silver 1 token = 1 silver , however i have over 10,000 kills in WvW I estimate ive made in tokens about 30 gold worth in that period which is nothing compared to how much I make in PVE. I think the value of the token should be increased or the loot quality be increased because I spend way too much gold on siege that disapears in 1/2 hr =) also the WvW armor sets should be reduced in price to match dungeons.
3. Outmanned buff – The outmanned buff only encourages people to try and level , craft , or go on a gathering spree not one thing about that buff makes people wanna try and fight a overwhelming force. I think the outmanned buff should give a 10% increase to all stats , or another solution is give us hired body guards like the ones you can buy to follow a yak.
4. Player amount- We need a gauge of how many friendly and how many enemy units are on each field and we need a limit. Say team A has 60 people… team B should not be allowed to field 100 units make it where team B can only field a certain number above team A before a que like a diference of no more than 15-20 players. The fights would be alot more fair than seeing a zerg of 100 crush 20 people.
5. COMMANDER – For 100g we got the shaft , the commander needs more tools such as the ability to see everyone in his /her squad across the map. A drop down squad party window would be nice to see how many have join. In its current state nobody gets in squad theres really no point. I think all the commanders should be refunded 100g and the commander icon be earned instead of bought. Too many idiots can buy the tag and dont have a clue what they are doin and do not deserve the tag. Also the tag would be cool if as you acomplished objectives you unlocked different tiers of commander with more tools at your command , like maybe a asura airdrop of supply , or double yaks , or a super treb after taking 5 towers for the day something so were not just a blue dot for 100g.
These were some of the main fixes me and my guild have been thinking about the game in its current state is great Ive been here since beta but we can always improve =)

What kind of runes / armor are u using on that warrior because I run Arah alot and that was pretty amazing!

I have to agree that people need to stop the tears about being killed by a thief , alot of the people crying dont stack toughness or health yet they want to live from a back attack thief? I dont think so!!! Man up and stack some defense or die cuz dps warriors hurt way more than thieves.

Oh I love this topic , Im Hammerhorn Da Great from Anvil Rock server , one of my guilds favorite pass times is killin people in jump puzzles. Given we do our share of hostile target take over in WvW the JP slaughter is a way to unwind. Recently we were pitted against a large server for WvW we took 6 of us and held the rock above the water fall for 3 hrs before we had other things to do. In the course of that 3 hours we probly killed 40-60 enemy targets lookin for free trebs and golems … thats the real treasure from free siege. At times we wiped groups of up to 15 people , 6 vs 15 no deaths on our part having 2 low lvs ( mid 40s ) and the other 4 were full exotic out. How? Well were organized , we use vent , were veteran players from top end hard core raid content of other games and we use siege to our advantage. Long ago when the game 1st came out I let people go by me in jump puzzles until one day someone I let go by linked up with a buddy , and when they had the advantage deceided to kill me. It was in that moment that I realized this is PvP , these people are getting FREE weapons of mass destruction why would I just let them pass? So to all you would be free siege grabbers when you see a guardian at a puzzle with the guild tag VS by his name just know when I wave its to let you know your about to die.
