I’m free to think as I do because I do feel that Yaks bend is stronger than Maguuma.

You may be correct since we dont seem to be able to get out of T4, I can say this, they need to have come a long way, I hope and believe that Mag and Yaks will be an even matchup with NNK/dragonbrand giving us good fights as always at night but Yaks needs to have come a long way since we last met them..

Of course YB is better than Mag, they’re beating the team that Mag can’t catch in the ratings. Maguuma has failed to close the gap on SoS for weeks now despite playing against smaller population servers that they should dominate. Meanwhile YB has widened the gap between themselves and Mag while playing tougher (higher population) servers. I’m not even sure how this is up for debate.

Do you really want us to tryhard wvw all week, pop up wps in all your keeps, and camp you at spawn? Personally, I think that sounds a lot more boring for all of us. Keep going on thinking you’re a special flower though.

Please don’t. :\ what was it Tuesday night you guys did that? It sucked…(to be on the CD side of it)

I think this about sums up the chaos at SM earlier.

So much lag.

Yeah if they could improve the lag a bit fights like this would be awesome

Well that explains why the fight club was so dull tonight! (at least from 11est+ i usually can’t get on till then)

First person to win a 2v1 DURP or no DURP (censoring) as a longbow ranger and records it gets my vote for King of Maguuma. Opponents must not be downleveled.

And while all these 2v1’s 1v1’s 3v1’s are great and are fun to watch. Did any of you stop to think maybe you just had more raw skill than your opponents? If anyone wants all this fair stuff, blah blah blah go to sPvP.

Hey maybe theyll do another 3 boosters and 3 tonics into the MF for a fusion chest. 1 can hope!

Didn’t you all learn your lesson during the Halloween update? and to add fuel to this fire, i got my ticket on my first chest…its RNG accept it and move on. Having one of these fused weapons actually makes it feel prestigious because of its rarity legendary’s are far too common now. ;D

This is a lot worse than @ halloween, now the tickets are account bound … 25-30 Keys no ticket, thinking of deleting the game too.

So delete it, its a weapon skin and it adds no advantage over any other player in the game what so ever. On top of all that just grab a CoF weapon they aren’t drastically different. The best part? If you do decide to delete it you dont miss out on anything because you have no sub-fee and the only thing you wont have that other people may have if you decide to return is all aesthetics.

when you don’t have a single story mode done on 8 80’s…

If you do leave this tier Maguuma i for one will be very happy. Fun fights and a great pride in your server, but this is not the tier your server belongs in.

Im not sure what its going to be, but im usually one to skip cut-scenes or skim reading up on the lore. But this 3rd installment had me really hooked i didn’t skip anything read up on all the action going on, especially those translated messages. And boy am i excited to see the finale now!

Guys its all RNG i got mine on my very fist chest. That being said now that i have 1, (maybe 2 dont hate me, i got very lucky!) the skins aren’t too amazing, to be more specific id sell it on the TP if i had the option in a heartbeat.

Waffler.1257:

What would be really cool is if you could see how much supply someone is carrying.

But thats what that 100g supply check icon was for i thought!

I love that intensity Crystal Desert had roughly from 8pm-10pm est. i really hope we can see that again! Felt great to get a queue during an NA primetime on a weekday.

Thanks for the quick update!

Want to bring this to Anets attention, dunno if other servers are having this issue. Crystal Desert is having frequent d/c’s from all of the borderlands and eternal battlegrounds.

Dear maguuma, why did you have to pick on us undefended swirling wind eles blocking your treb fire? Im still recovering from that portal bomb into the 3 of us. It was kind of funny.

Mags team chat:

Solider: Commander there is a group of ele’s blocking our treb fire completely undefended.

Commander: SEND…IN…EVERYTHING.

Honestly i can never grasp this perma stealth thing for theives, can anyone tell me what im doing wrong or link a guide or give me some advice? im assuming it revolves around cloak and dagger? or that pistol dagger leap finisher? or both? any help would be appreciated. It’s been bugging me lol.

My 1 and only real complaint. IT’S A WVW UPDATE. Why is there not a thing about the commander title?!

Alot of people are experiencing this issue right now. Should just be a quick hiccup, but keep checking their twitter in case it becomes more serious.

Halo.8976:

10 vs 10 (golems) with Awe was awesome. I like this guild, wish we had them on Mag.

Video of the event: http://youtu.be/Fhs3GlNuYAE

That was pretty awesome.

I feel bad for Awe, carrying the entire server on their back.

With that attitude i’m glad to see you transferred.

I shall see if NAGA would be interested in this golem mayhem because i think we should make this a regular thing. :P That video was awesome.

Jabberwock.9014:

Getting sick of cd. Eternally outmanned during NA hours. Honestly wish the oceanic players would leave so we could drop to a tier we actually belong (nothing against the players themselves, but it really is ruining the experience for us NAers).

Whats so ruined? In the past 3 weeks I’ve yet to see us outmanned to the point where we are spawn camped. And if it did happen it sure didn’t last too long. Sure we’ve lost our own garrison in CDBL, EBG, etc. However it didn’t take long for us to take them back, not only that but they can easy be defended with good siege placement. (We have video defending 5 (4?) omega golems attacking hills). Coordinate more in map chat be patient and understanding with new players and you’ll find WvW much more enjoyable. I for one would not find it enjoyable winning every time i like the thrill of defending keeps that are soon to be upgraded from endless waves of enemies. What fun is it in always winning? If we drop a tier its most likely well be in Mags place in this tier owning most of each map consistently, then everyone will be complaining that there is nothing to do. Think of it from a different perspective, i love being the blue/red team and fighting my way up.

Waffler.1257:

I think some cross server romance is exactly what needs to happen to spice this match up a bit. Third week of the same match is exiting the honeymoon stage.

I want that crazy charr engi from Mag!

Tobias Trueflight.8350:

Pinko.2076:

We’re nice, but killing in the JP is normal and should be done. Sorry, but you are not entitled to blueprints.

ParaldaWind.4523:

Oh, that’s just CAMP. They camp jps. I don’t think anyone should complain about pvp in a pvp zone, jp or not.

Please note, I do understand the blueprints are important to not get for free. But there’s killing in the JP and basically avoiding a fair fight. They didn’t even chase me, they just waited for me to come back as I thought they were running it. Nope.

I wanted the achievements, not just the blueprints or badges. If I wanted blueprints, I’d buy them. If I wanted badges I’d just do other things like man arrow carts. I just wanted to do the achievements while it looked like everyone else was busy on major fights over the keeps.

Rally for some buddies in map chat clear the JP finish it and be on your way. Every server has campers some more than others, it’s all part of the game. 10 achievement points would get you the +5 kittenery armor or anything, so be patient.

All that over a simple re-supply.

This post is to commemorate the brave souls who fought in the great battle of Bluewater Village.

3.20.13-Never Forget

Im sure this has been posted before but if not here it is. I did skim this thread and didn’t see it.

Race: Any
Class: Necro
Gender: Any
Item: Final Rest

Its the most necro-est staff however the scythe animation is way off when you attack. Almost halfway down the staff.

Just posted this in our thread however i say Maguuma. And this is why.

Oh maguuma, i am so glad i didn’t re-spawn right away and got to enjoy this marvelous view.

EDIT: He wouldn’t add me, so that i could commend him on his dedication.

Murderin.8269:

Halo.8976:

Murderin.8269:

Ill pay you to take him to Mag

Deal.
People on Mag trained to ignore bad commanders, but we can enjoy hilarious ones just fine.

Its easier to ignore a commander when they aren’t the only active commander on the map.

Morale seems to be really low for our server this week. No one is even trying.

I know i as well as some others just avoided it this weekend because of this. Ill be back at it tomorrow, our morale is very low and it worries me that this might be the final blow to it that we cannot afford.

What confuses me the most is this guy is spamming the map chat, not cooperating with commanders, literally suicided a zerg. and the people were still following him, i was just baffled. lol

Please please take him, CD hasn’t hit the point where we can deal with people like this and still do okay in the points category.

Is he the upleveled ele commander?

Yes he is, he made commanding this weekend a nightmare for me.

Are you the commander with the legendary shortbow?

Im the ele that flings his body into your zergs. :P

Despite this matchup being the mother of all coverage imbalances, I’m having fun. I’ve been fighting outmanned when I play and though it’s annoying it’s not at painful as it used to be.

Murderin.8269:

I don’t hate the people, just the fact that our server is backwards and has no population during what should be the prime time.

If you don’t have a strong attachment to your server, playing on one that coincides with your play time might be best.

Probably the best idea.

The few good commanders we have gave up on this match already. Now we just have one that shouts random lines from 300 in all caps.

Hehe, it is very heartbreaking when your own garrison on your own borderlands is taken. You take the outer wall down, call for reinforcements only to see “TIME FOR A SUICIDE RUN” from your fellow “commander” to the lower right supply camp. Meanwhile the entire map is green so that supply camp will just about do nothing for us. Eventually the newer commanders will either learn and adapt from their PvE perspective, or just get bored, its a matter of time. I personally have not given up but its hard to command a zerg and a commander at the same time. :P

Shouldn’t be able to buy commander unless you have a certain time played in WvW. Having a blue mark for your name means nothing if people are just going to end up hating following you into completely bad ideas over and over.

There’s a few I enjoy following, a few that I will follow if no one else is around and then there are some that I would rather run solo then listen to them lol.

You know they shouldn’t be commander when they are getting constant arguments about their strategy in chat multiple times. Or when they are running around naked anytime you run past them because they have got them self killed that many times and cant afford to repair or are to lazy to run back. Or if they lay there dead in the same spot for 10 minutes while the rest of the team tries to take the objective because thats where his ping is.

Eh I could say more but honestly they know who they are. I’m not saying I could do it better but at the same time I’m not the one with the blue

Everyone starts out bad. You should be upset at the veteran commanders not showing up or helping the new commanders.

I agree however there is a difference between a new commander, and an ignorant one.

Yes i’ve added you from last week gonna be a tough weekend this week with the holiday but im sure well get at least 1 good night in for some fights!

dreztina.4820:

This forum feels so dead lately. Doesn’t seem like anyone cares enough to post anymore, myself included. Not just this matchup thread either.

I love you guys, just sick of you at the same time lol :P

Hello again Mag/Sbi cant wait for another intense week. A lil off topic but am i the only one that would LOVE to see Cd vs. Sbi vs. Ebay? And think that mag/yaks is in a tier 4.5 so to speak? No hate, i love fighting you mag on of my fave servers to play against and sbi surprised us last week and almost took 2nd, look forward to trying to hold that spot against you guys again!

Murderin.8269:

We are gonna end up in 3rd this week if people don’t stop zerging one map at a time on CD.

Hard to do when we cant even fill 1 map let alone multiple.

Pinko.2076:

Any fight clubs going on?! If not, we should get one going.

I believe the usual Thursday night one is a go this week, 2 weeks ago with you guys was a great fight club!

My only gripe with thieves is that you should not be able to hit 8k+ crits easily practically guaranteed with some builds, and still be completely invisible, unless that is the culling issue and not the stealth issue then please forgive me. And i get that they are squishy but that doesn’t mean anything if i cant see you, and sure every once in a while ill get lucky spamming AoE around me and nab one. Not complaining (i have no right to, im a D/D ele :P) just my 2 cents.

Tobias Trueflight.8350:

Question!

Hypothetically speaking, if I were to dip into the Sapphire Sanctum jumping puzzle this week, being from Stormbluff, would I be immediately whacked upon discovery or do I at least get to get to finish it and grab the chest before I am murdered?

Message me ingame and ill make sure to check it out and let you know if we have any campers there.

I could not waaaait to bring my engi into world v world and this completely shot that down and now he will gather dust like all my other alts will starting with this March update. I hope they take notice and really consider changing this.

My inventory could not contain that farm at Bluelake tonight.

Wreckdum.8367:

WTH is with all the people raging about emotes after WvW kills? Is this the new generation of carebear thinskinners? Winner has the privilege of emoting. If you don’t want to get taunted after you die… die less! =D

I purposely don’t respawn when people start emoting because I like when I get a small gathering around my corpse. Makes me feel so popular!

The only time that ever gets under my skin is when i’m in a 1v1 situation and it gets interrupted. If you emote after that your just a jerk plain and simple i’m all for trash talk or whatever you want to call it but that’s just being a bad sport about it.

Yes give it a few minutes and you can go back to chatting away.

Fun night so far in CDBL it was amusing when Yaks took Dawns from us but left all of our siege in there including a mesmer which we used to take down the gate form the inside to get our zerg in. Then afterwards we used the treb you guys didn’t take down to counter your treb firing at dawns after we took it XD. Look forward to more great fights throughout the week!

Im glad that charr is so recognized in his own server as he is in ours (CD) he’s one crazy kitten. Hope to fight you again soon Maguuma!

I gotta admit, I’m a little disappointed with our CD NA timers…I usually pop in during the oceanic time. In the first few days we grabbed SMC from maguuma in a pretty outnumbered fight…spent a good chunk of time defending and upgrading it. Even doing supply runs for stocking up on the siege.

When I come back, all our effort is wasted with Maguuma owning SMC again. I mean, what happened guys? There was practically siege at every corner. How did you not hold them off?

I’m sorry if we always lose SMC whenever you guys take it. CD is always outnumbered by Mag in their NA prime time and even in CD NA prime time.

Problem is that there isn’t really any major active guilds in the NA time slots in CD. Most of the commanders just have to make do with pugs and there’s not much organization, so people see that there’s no action and leave the map.

Since we’re unlikely to get a WvW focused guild to transfer in over now, we’ll just have to hope something else changes so some other guilds in NA time start focusing on WvW. The March update may be able to do that. If not, then we’ll just have to accept that CD is a SEA server and they will get night-capped by NA servers, just like they night-cap theirs.

I have been seeing slow but steady progress from our NA standpoint it also appears that the weekend (obviously) and Monday have the most NA activity ill have to start annoying people in team chat with my recruiting shpeel. :P

Exactly how long ago did that happen? Depending on the time you attacked you probably caught us on one of our ‘deadzones’ when barely anybody is online.

Around 5~6AM EST.
You had people busy zerging EB at that time.

^ Our CD don’t have coverage to cover 2 borderlands at a time. And since everyone considers eternal to be the homeland borderland. CD bl is often left unattended.

When i command i always hit up CD BL first make sure its blue then head to eternal. Which time range are you speaking? Just out of curiosity.

50,000 influence?! On top of Art of War 5? I love this update but that kills it for any smaller guilds. Or am i missing something?

EDIT: Actually read the article (teehee) and now it doesn’t seem tooooo bad.

Lots O’ Fun in Crystal Desert Borderlands tonight! Awesome defend at the garrison around 12 30 am EST. Look forward to doing it again tomorrow.
