You’d rather be killing bags and farming dragons? How would that even work?

Bags are fairly dangerous, especially when they’re wounded.

I read some weird (nah, it was pretty awesome) stuff involving bags last night, so I’m actually afraid of their content. :-O

Another week with DB? Another week of PvE in WvW I guess. Killing dragons and farming bags.

Someone got Chaos Gun from a rank 21 chest on TC.

Players who gained World Rank prior to the chests being added will receive 1 additional chest per rank gained until they have received a number equal to the ranks they had gained previously.

Let’s say you are Rank 5. From now on you get two chests each time you rank up till you hit Rank 10. From there on you will only get one chest per rank.

DB is running away even faster now or switching maps after loosing one open field battle when we hunted them down. gg

I actually stopped reading when I saw those 25 laurels and 250 badges for an Ascended Ring.

First I stopped reading, then I couldn’t stop laughing. Just… wow. That’s completely kittened.

I just saw the infusions. Fml, I’m laughing now, too.

Kitten you, Junkpile, few seconds late.

Elano.2014:

Seriously, please come out. Our SEA guilds need kills and bags and badges as well.

Kinda curious, was it just you? Or did your server buddies miss the photo shoot?

Great posts here in the forums in the last couple of hours, keep up the good work, folks of DB.

Lanimal.6541:

Bayern just won the champions league

Great match, but the wrong team won in the end, although it was deserved.

Did he stand in this spawn area?

I dunno what you take, but gimme some.

Xehanort.4589:

WvW is not pvp, wvw is about conquering the map with military strategy, that’s why they need to reward more those players that take and defend objectives instead of those chasing enemy zergs. We need a total rebalance to make players being more focused on important things (you don’t win the match if you kill players as they don’t reward points).

So instead of chasing enemy zergs we should wait for them in our keeps/towers till the moment they attack to destroy them then with our siege? Those AC buffs were clearly made for people like you.

Xehanort.4589:

Thank DevonCarver for your reply, I’m looking forward for the new build. The rate of wvw leveling should be adjusted on a normal playstyle and not on the most profitable one like zerg vs zerg. I know well that in such a situation you could get half a rank in 10 minutes, but i also know that killing other players doesn’t make you win the match. In my opinion capturing points should award more points than player killing (i know now it’s 60 at best vs 75 but 75 is just too low for 1 camp while you could kill 10 players that give 30 wxp on average).

Let the circle PvDooring begin then.

T
Fixing Thief Stealth Class or Eliminate it from Wvw, fixing the class Imbalances, fixing the bugs that been plaguing the game since release amd Elliminating Class Favoritism

Than and only than, you’ll Earn my “Update Excitemnts”..

I agree man, they should get rid of stealth. They also need to get rid of toolkits and turrets on engineer. Those grenades and wrenches and nets are just to much man, thats got to go. After that we need to heavily nerf those elementalists. We should take away all their boons so I can easily kill them with my auto attack while Im away from my keyboard. They should suffer a 3 second root when they change element too, I hate running after them so much, my legs are short darnit. And then since we removed boons from Ele, obviously guardian cant have them anymore either. Its also so unfair that guardian and warrior get more base armor than anyone else. Lets nerf that so its all the same too. Then we can take out mesmer clones, cause why should they get some special shiney gimmick all to themselves when others dont? Those necros too man, I hate those circles they drop ont he ground, its like every half a second they cast 5 of them on me and I wtfbbqsauce fall over and die. That shouldnt be allowed either, they should only be allowed to attack me with the flying hands of black doom that dont hurt me at all.

Once they get all that fixed man, I’ll be a happy camper.

It’s funny ‘cause you didn’t mention rangers since… well they are rangers.

There is btw the chance for a precursor in those chests.

Also with the upcoming update to WvW, there will be a chance players can earn precursors from the WvW rank reward chests as well.

Apparently they do something for WvW – cutting of reinforcements. Anyway, it’s a l2p issue; I have no problems fighting thiefs as a necromancer.

Burnfall.9573:

Kittenish kitten.

You sound a bit mad, buddy.

Urrid.4593:

I really do miss the ninja stuff from T3-T5 though.

Still possible, just a bit harder, but that’s what makes it even better. Just be careful ’cause there are people screaming “exploit” on the forums once you succeeded.

First ability will be: Your chance finding an oil in a tower that is not bugged will be increased to 75%.

ColinJohanson.2394:

lordkrall.7241:

Is the combination cost for both items and infusions or just infusions?

Ascended items and infusions both will cost a less than normal amount of laurels, and a badge cost as well. (Ascended accessories will remain laurels + ecto, but with new WvW rank reward chests you’re going to be getting a lot more Ecto!)

Now with live scores – for the ones at work.

Woo!

Is that API documented anywhere?

I dunno, sorry. There are still a few problems as it seems, but I guess you could bookmark it for the future. Nevertheless – cute Asura score update pictures are always welcome. :-)

So many DB in their own BL. I think they didn’t appreciate our appearance in their beach party in Bay.

Evalana.5480:

Hills seems to have a little DB infestation. Not acceptable – Must call the exterminator stat!

Do you need any assistance? I’m experienced cleaning those things up.

But I have to go to university in a few minutes. Nooo. :-(

Evalana.5480:

I Deschain I.4623:

DB in EB are now jumping out of their towers when we got the wall down and engage. Even with ACs and stuff. This is getting funny, keep running. Actual PvP? Oh nooo.

lmfao! Wow. You’re luckier than us =/ last night we couldn’t even coax them off the wall so we had to yank them off…

No, they were so fast. :-( They left a few there to hold us off so they could make it safely to their keep.

So about this score update I wanted to do with you… I heard there are… ehm… some DB out there at the moment. We could make it a three-way. Only Asura of course. :-)

GabGar.4962:

I just want to ask if this kind of behaviour should be tolerated/allowed by Anet, guilds, servers and players.

Are you mad?

AT, please don’t port away next time when we are engaging you with even numbers. And TFV, didn’t know you can run that fast.

Elano.2014:

FA people should come out and fight instead of staying in towers using ACs. ^^

Buddy, you are not supposed to hit the doors with your head or did they use you as a ram again?

Evalana.5480:

or in Lion’s Arch somewhere. Heck – even Cursed Shore =P

Never heard of them, are they in FABL? Is this a trap?

Evalana.5480:

Gellor.6497:

Score Update but I has no fluffy friend!

Signet of the Lotus in your build should be replaced by Spectral Walk, just an opinion – Between spectral walk and Locust Swarm it’s 45 seconds of stacked swiftness, and warhorn has a 30 second recharge – pop it again, and then pop Spectral Walk again when it’s cooldown is up, and boom! perma swiftness. More faster than the signet’s 25% too.

Nah, he’s okay. I’m running the same utilities ( Consume Conditions instead of Well of Blood though), you just need to switch the signet for Spectral walk when it comes to larger fights.

Anyway, so many necromancer. It’s time: NECRO POWER ACTIVATED!

So how do I get into a score update screen with Evalakitten? I think I’m in love. Wait what, what am I saying? I need sleep. The last three pages were too much.

Elano.2014:

I Deschain I.4623:

And you are? One of the other forty guys standing on the walls waiting till we are in the range of your ACs? Or the one with the AC in open field battles?

I’m the one who hunted several KHs down while they’re running. :O

Mad respect.
We actually do have problems fighting forty guys with just five of us though.

Titan.3472:

:p I am in DB actually and I love the fights lol

You mean the ones between FA and TC you watch while you’re in your tower/keep?

So you never run into a tower/keep when 2 other servers fight? Mad respect.

And you are? One of the other forty guys standing on the walls waiting till we are in the range of your ACs? Or the one with the AC in open field battles?

Thanks to every DB those last four hours in DB BL. Had some great duels – finally – and although nothing was really going on it was indeed fun. Sadly your zergball just showed up, so priorities have changed.

Joseph.7213:

Oh that’s rich. Glad to see TC complaining about a non-existent doubleteam. Oh that brings me happiness.

Wow, one guy speaking for a whole server as it seems. New to me.

Even in open field battles DB uses ACs now in those rare moments when they’re not running. gg

To the giant DB zergs in EB these last days: Please stop running and actually fight us open field and don’t run into you towers and or keeps. Yes, we outnumbered you sometimes, but there were moments when you were outnumbering us or the numbers were even. Still you kept running. So let’s have some great battles and no siege wars. Thanks.

I don’t know if you’re reading this, but to the FA Recruit guardian at the top of the vista at our keep in EB: You won. I had to go, but I don’t think I could have get you down there. Although I really wanted to ‘cause when I heard that you were still up there even after the second wave of FA we defeated I was like ’Wow, dat guardian’.

I got to admit, I’m actually pretty impressed. Don’t know how a few changes will work out, but I guess we’ll see. And thanks for finally rewarding people who actually repair things (Do supplies from keeps count to, ‘cause I remember a statement about it that they don’t?!) and walk yaks.

Gellor.6497:

Hey TC quit complaining about Golem Rushing

OH MY FREAKIN GOD, that little Asura on the stairs is me. I’m famous now. \o/

That bay defense a little earlier in TCBL. Started with half the number DB had, but more and more joined the fun.

Again, lol. Something about a pot and a kettle.

You’re cute. <3
