where coming for you FC treat us nicely ya hear!!
not bitter at all the squeaky wheel gets the grease that’s life sadly.
so i haven’t been around for a few day’s how are we (gom) getting kicked to tier 8. this makes no sense what so ever. well i was going to wish hod and nsp good luck but i remember playing sf.. you don’t need it see you in a few weeks.
Just figured i would pop in and thank OS for the night of death and carnage last night on our borderlands. Keep it up. borderlands gets kinda of stale sometimes. and E. bg is a bit to siege orientated for me. hm got 3 screen shots of OS attack on a tower. these are a panoramic of the battle (graphics have been turned off, [my computer is old])
hm pic 3 should be where pic 2 is.
Speaking of this being a troll thread…we really must be entertaining the devs with this thread still being up
Didn’t you Hear? we at Gom have hacked the A.net mods, preventing them from “logging on”
Oh yeah where doing “That” tonight. evil laugh i almost forgot
ah i just heard 30+ on the forums im not in t8 myself so it could be 100 for all i know . give it time. when this patch comes out there is either going to be a huge influx of players or a mass exodus. either way it might balance things a bit better.
I’m sorry but there is no hope for you guy’s. from what im reading SF can field 30+ guy’s Everyone in tier 7 can do that even hod (who both gom and darkhaven will admit have less people) now both Hod and Gom are used to fighting larger number’s (dark haven) what do you suppose is going to happen when one of us drops down and has to fight Lower numbers? Our Pve players will start to Wvw. more people = bigger stomp. which throws them/us back into tier 7.
The only fix Anet can do is simply wait. they can’t close servers atm because there are only 2 underpopulated server’s. they need a third underpopulated server so they can delete tier 8. otherwise it throws off the balance with glicko (3 servers per tier).
course this is all just theory so take it with a grain of salt.
hey least we got something to read this week. was getting pretty stagnant in here
welcome to the war DH! hope your enjoying yourself so far i know i am
They tried Foghaven trebs earlier this week on us too when I was at Cragtop earlier this week. Luckily we had a treb inside to pre-emptively counter it.
I didn’t even know trebs from there could reach ’till this matchup.
We used to use this in pre-sale (along with most high tier servers at the time) it was abandoned by most though. couple reason. there trebs can be Aoe’d from the ground (2 sides) there are 3 entrances to that camp, which make defending it near impossible. If by some stroke of luck they do end up defending it the other team eventally zergs on top of the trebs and fights there. and finally Setting a treb up in Hills vista will reach there. while returning fire seems to hit an invisable wall. And finally the way we took it out, treb from cliffside. Kain you should stop using that spot. (it might still work next tier Anvil doesnt have that much more people then us, but eventually you’ll run into these problems too.
This forums pretty entertaining lots of trolls on all sides, gives me something to read (and i don’t have to troll for once )
i feel sorry for Kaineng same things going to happen to them as all other “Flooded” servers rising through the tier, they eventually run into a tier with even numbers. then they get smashed. then there major guilds leave and they plummet back to the bottom. its a long boring road for them. (If you don’t believe me look at Bp as an example)
The Timing/animation comes in handy though. when your fighting d/d thiefs. takes a bit longer for the animation then h/s so you end up evading all there attacks and landing with Fs’s second strike. (This is also the case for Shortbow #3) Also when your immobilized you will just spin in place evading all incoming attacks.
for the most part it is annoying how long it takes though..
Well Flanking strike is one of the best (if not) the best sword skill so i really do hope they never change it. If at this point you haven’t figured out a way to make it hit 90%. you really need to go back to the drawing board and figure it out. even when it flings you in a random direction who cares. it gives you enough time to walk into range before your second strike starts.
A dodge, Boon remover, plus 1/4 More dmg then Cnd.
hm this shall forever be known as the battle of the fallen. from the top 3 tiers to the second last. all of are servers have fought long and hard. we’ve lost people, guilds and motivation. but we never gave up. are 3 servers thrive on battle. we all would of jumped ship long ago if that wasn’t the case. one day we shall all rise again!
(yes i am bored )
Lol thank you for reading one of the funniest things out there.
Psychatog.8246
can i have directions to the land of dreams?
All the Exploiters where from Dh guild on hod.
as ive never seen hod glitch/exploit before im just going to assume its this one guild.
Either way. they have been reported and no doubt will be banned when a.net does there next ban wave.
for those of you who don’t know. every time a tier drop falls A.net gives thieves +1 power. you made us Op =)
what you guys afraid to fight your old server or something
been seing alot of group Vs group vs Group. keep it up those fight’s are alway’s a blast no matter who wins. (it’s probably due to the breakout event, but oh well i’m enjoying them while the last)
I just think they should set it so they both can’t go off at the same time. i was in are borderlands the other night, and both the enemy teams where setting there breakouts to launch at the same time. which is smart, but the problem is we our in last and most of are players are doing the pve events they already outnumber us heh. all and all though i kinda like the event. it gives people a reason to defend for once and it adds a little spice to the match. just requires some tweaking
So Our fair weather players decided to show up this week. that’s a shame. now where going to jump a tier. winter’s day will come out, they all disappear, we get smashed and are back here in 2 weeks.
I’ve seen more shame seige these last 3 day’s then i’ve seen since this game launched. Alliances are good and all, but you should teach people the basics first especially when they float around with a blue dot. But hey what do i know i’m just a pug
^ That’s just it on my thief i roll with ALL defensive abilities. i can also say noone knows how to fight a thief. i can’t even count the amount of time’s i’ve “Appeared” beside someone only to have them run… thanks for the free backstabs. people have already stated thousands of counters to the thief. yet you guy’s refuse to learn any of them it’s just sad. so ignore that black mist and gaint cottage. we sure as hell ain’t there…. when i dagger storm your zerg back up really slowly that’s the correct counter…
Yes you Are. I guess your aloud to kill there merchants too.
i asked a dev the other day if i could kill there spawn merchants. he’s reply was. if you can get there why not?
Mind you. he could of thought there was no way in. who knows.
Missing: Player’s from servers: Anvil Rock
: Gates of Madness
: Eredon terrace
If found please send to nearest battleground. seriously where the hell is everybody this world peace is not healthy
Lol Anvil rock is such a joke. they better keep praying anet never fixes the res on defeated state.
To the bp guy. it’s been 5 weeks since we droped down to this tier. things must of changed up there. when we where there one of them ruled the night. the other ruled the morning. and gom took after work hours. so relax, start working on training your lowbies it’s not that tier you have to worry about. you probably won’t have a problem till you reach the bottom of the middle tiers.
To Anvil Rock/ and Gom. we should leave E.t Alone on there borderlands. let them take the map. that way more of there pve players will join and we will get a better war going. Let’s face it neither of us needs to take there lands to win. we can fight over our bl.s and Eb. (i don’t speak for any server, just a suggestion. and im sure et could use the time to figure out some zerg breaks and to train there pve people)
Eviator, it’s seems to me that Gom and Newl take are homelands while RH attacks anvil borderlands untill called to defend. last i checked Ai was still trying to get a commander (should be any time soon, how are you progressing insanity?)
Ip seems to be recruiting alot. but i rarely see them. Ubec is also a wvw guild i believe there also a bigger one as i see them all over the pond.
(again i refuse all guilds so, this is just from my outside vantage point)
I think one of Gom’s problems is all the bwe/pre sale crowd have stopped getting upgrades/seige let’s face it we got fed up of buying stuff just to lose it 2 mins later.
This is changing slowly though as Gom guild and Rh seem to defend alot more ive started to buy seige again. I’d Urge everyone to do the same, (its the only way we can fight there numbers atm)
Sorry for the long rant fella’s.
May the Madness be with you.
lightsbane just ignore them ive seen more small groups of gom members take out zergs 3x there size. the thing is we don’t brag on the forum about it with SS. i guess we should start posting are 1vs12’s and 3vs 20 screen shots like these children. but of course we would all be banned for spamming lol
i thought they where always unorganized.
sure. it evades and gives 2 hits whats not to like? its great when you’re in the middle of a zerg. and a plus vs d/d thiefs casting this will not only make there heartseeker miss your hit will usually land. (it seems to take longer for the animation) i think most people don’t like it cause if you fail the trick, your drove sideways. but what is really happening is your locking onto another target and u evade towards them. which is fine it puts you in great range for cnd. sorry im tired probably ain’t making much sense atm
oh i don’t think steal cnd and backstab is op at all. i play a sword/dagger thief myself and i can says its pretty easy to counter. hell setima has listed off how many ways so far heh.
i would just like to add please don’t change flanking strike. it is fine the way it is though i really think you should give it the ability to hit invulnerable like how you made it target unblockable. (thanks btw now those pesky guardians are where they belong. dead on the ground )
My concern about thieves are this. You hired a balancing team who did wonderful work and had many aspects balanced besides for 2 main points. you then proceeded to lock them in the basement and starved them of light and nourishment hitting them with stacks of forum threads printed on paper. it didn’t take them long to crack but when they did and escaped the room of perpetual darkness there minds had been broken and they truly believe the whiners on the forums where right…
all the while missing the 2 points: capping while stealth and steal c+d and back stab…
So in short. delete every change you made. fix those 2 things. and we are now balanced again… you can leave revealed we’ve gotten used to it by now…
any bets on how long this post will last
I think the main problem with the bottom tiers is being able to res after defeated. a small group vs a zerg is really no problem the problem comes after you down X amount . and the last 5 people stop fighting and jump on a corpse. your team Aoe’s them but it doesn’t matter, sure u may get one or 2 into downed state, but he’s res’d by the 3-4 other guys.. (alot faster 2 since he ‘s downed and not defeated) then they just repeat until there 20 are standing again. by this time your small group is on full cd or out of initiative, your forced to back up. which allows them to res even more guys!. Whatever server your fighting for, you have no doubt seen something along those lines.
I vaguely remember reading on these forums that A.net was having an internal debate on allowing res on defeated.(during beta, on the forums) its a shame but the wrong side won. being able to res defeated has caused alot of problems. If you can’ beat the zerg join it. a lot of guilds on mid-low tiers jumped ship for this reason. This is just what i’ve seen though it could be off base or spot on, who knows..
So just now i was running solo in fotm dredge dungeons as a …certain class… you can bypass pretty much every cage wall, and that gate room in back can be bypassed as well. now i can’t really state the ability on here i guess…. or class i hear. so i don’t even know if this will help you… perhaps get your security team to look me up. ill do it again now incase u use timestamps.
GoM players have been too stupid to take a back path out of spawn, they wanna fight you right out front. Gaaahhh. xD
In most cases you right. in this match-up not so much. why? Free badges. just mark them with aoe and run back to guards, watch them die then pick up there loot. repeat. or even better stand in the invulnerable zone and wait for them to charge you..
by all means keep feeding me err i mean spawn camping. yup really stupid to be able to collect 12 badges in what 20 seconds..
I would also like to point out they destroyed the dmg on 4 combos, by halfing the dmg on DD
psn arrow + dancing dagger = psn dagger.
steal (Tar) + dancing dagger = confusion dagger
Blind + dd =blind dagger
shadow refuge + Dd = life steal dagger.
sitting at 100% crit dmg this does 1000k on guards. while my normal 1 attack does 940 without crit. and doesn’t cost init..
Please raise the damage on dd 17%, (would make it -33% nerf instead of 50%)
The zerg is getting all powerful.. next whine: Anything that hits more then 1 target.
personally im on Gom i thought it was half smart, it will never work on any other server though. the only reason is worked on Gom is because of the useless event. oh shiny trinket!!!! was 10 vs 30 sbzy. don’t expect a battle this week guys. gom has to use pve people in wvw. we don’t have the numbers (they left) and though we have tried to recruit more guys we always get the statement gates of hackers/ect..
*note: when i say pve people it is not meant to degrade. it simply means you would rather do an event. dungeon over wvw. nothing wrong with that.
Don’t worry though ill still hack you down

Considerin that Eadren said “let’s go GoM”, I’m gonna guess he’s Gates of Madness.
Also, let’s go Gates of Madness!
Speed Reading ftl. fun night tonight.. i enjoyed watching anvil and borlis fight it out over Green vale camp in Borlis Borderlands , Anvil Set up seige and tried to use the wall as a zerg break while borlis streamed in from every corner of the galaxy. haven’t seen that for awhile. was a good show to watch.
So while you guys have been fighting for 5 weeks straight and dislike each other.
you still have fun fights right? Enjoy them while you can. coming from a high tier i can say fights like that only happen rarely, it’s a numbers game up there. and if u think gom/anvil/borlis has double your number wait till you go up a tier…
Night all
Eadren what server are you from? i come on here to pick a target (Gom) the server that whines the most gets me attacking there camps all night
so please tell me where your from so i can attack the other server lol
