That means PVT and clerics gear and the guild spec.
And that is exactly what the Guardian in the video I posted is wearing. Mostly Clerics, with the exception of 3 trinkets being PVT. I doubt your build is too far off as well.
O.o will take a look at it later then when i get more time.
kitten you and Gully for getting me talking properly <3
What the kitten is going on? The ultimate BG troll just had a serious conversation with the SoR Grand Master Troll. Did hell freeze over or did the world come to an end and no one told me?
Oh StarScream you will never learn will you . . . LOL
Let me put it another way – trying to get back to my guild and help them with a tower defence or open field battle is more important than spending five minutes trying to stay alive against players primarily built to kill me.
If I die fast I respawn fast so I get to my guild fast…….unless I meet roamers again ofc ;P
I know its hard to believe but fighting against roamers comes pretty down on my list of priorities.
I never said it was supposed to be your priority. It’s just really silly when you want to get back to a PPT objective, but we kill you and gain PPT for our server, and you didn’t even try to stop us. We still get PPT for stomps after all, its much lower than it was (sadly), but the free kills we get really add up… and those kills really shouldn’t be free.
A lot of the time, we end up camping a spawn just so people like that will fight us (because they have a group).
The other flip side of that coin (seeing as you brought PPT into the discussion) is while we are taking a tower, keep or even a camp, doesnt it seem a bit silly to just spawn camp or whatever it is you are doing to find your battles when you could be helping your server mates defend a objective?
Its silly that you want to fight but wont go to where we are fighting, you would rather wander in hope of finding some one instead of going to where you know definite action is. If your server mates are losing that defense, you are helping us gain those free kills you hate so much.
This was an argument we use to face against our fellow guilds back in the day, but this proves that many don’t understand the roaming philosophy.
Spawn camping does help because the following happens:
1) We kill you so there is less of you in your zerg for our zerg to fight.
2) It will demoralize people trying to get back to their zerg, especially pugs.
3) Usually most get fed up and group up trying to push out and actually give us what we want which is a good fight.
4) In some cases, we jump a commander trying to get back and we see the entire zerg go back to their WP to group up taking you off the battlefield for a couple of minutes.They are small contributions compared to what we can do for holding bloodlust, but it is effective.
As for joining the zerg fight, sorry not going to happen. I have better uses of my time than joining a lagfest spamming 1 1 1 1 1 1 all day. If you guys like doing that go for it, just not the roamer’s mentality. Zergs have an importance, but so do roamer’s especially with the new bloodlust meta.
We just wish there were more T-1 roaming guilds on the other servers who like to fight so we can have our fun too. Zergs have all the fun. lol
Let’s put it this way.
A good zerger can be a good roamer.
Someone that just roams usually is a rally bot in zerg fights.
Methinks that you’ve never been part of a proper guild raid if you think that the majority of large-scale battles are “11111 lagfests”. That’s a huge discredit to you right there.
Oh I’v run with some of the best WvW guilds, such as HB watching them farm IRON. The lag the past two weeks have been terrible during NA Primetime. Nothing wrong with zergs, if that’s what you want to do. Just not my style, just saying . . .
You have either been smoking something or just woke up dreaming to spout so much rubbish .At least have the balls to speak the truth .
This is what I see when I dream.
what being in a constant downed state and fighting a few iron and others?
please come and meet us guild to guild put an end to it
ps I wasn’t there nor was the majority of iron .
LOL, guild to guild? we are like 10 active players at any given time, you have 40+ on any given map every day. I guess that proves how you like to win, big bully when you have numbers, otherwise when you lose, your excuse was, “i wasn’t there.” Okay, I guess you would have made the difference, pfff, the ego is strong in this one. LOL

I really have nothing against oPP as a guild, I love the posts Gully often makes, but added to all the boasts from the elitists roamers during the past I took ire at some of your guilds recent forum claims. Please brag but brag about the accomplishments of others and not your own, you will seem less tool-ish.
I rarely post and only when people talk trash. Look at the recent posts of our guild. Other than the obvious light hearted trolling posts, they are in response to zerlings/zerg guild scrubs or just crap pvp’ers talking trash.
Bragging would be oPP posting vids of our small man wrecking all these scrubs and their guild groups over and over on the forums.
You are right and to be honest I was reading the posts in the JQ/SoS/Mag thread that the maguuma heroes are making. Your guild may have been the victim of wording and transference, merely the closest target at hand. I apologize for trashing an entire guild in such a way.
Once you are started with the personal insults (which I can empathize with, I was insulting your guild after all) it became a wee bit personal for me. Sorry.
I accept that, thank you.
Both servers do play for PPT, and so does JQ, so not sure what you mean?. Our point is why does it take a ZERG to hold Bloodlust? NO matter who the server, that doesn’t make sense to us? Its taking the path of least resistance i guess, but as roaming guilds its frustrating. It seems to me zergs would be more productive and efficient taking larger objectives on the map, not keeping the orb.
I guess Blackgate won a few weeks with stomps so now everyone is chasing the meta and making orb priority to the point that a zerg must be dedicated to RUINS? Beats me, but its seems ridiculous.
That [Fear] zerg, fighting with 3 [oPP] guys over bloodlust buffs. Holding that buff for 10 minutes in 2,5-3 hours? Good job!
You know oPP likes to talk big in the forum but I kill them as often as they kill me and I am not really all that great at pvp.
KnT are better pvp’ers individually than the oPP forum chestthumpers.
Screenshot or video or its not true.
And he said, “weeeeeeee” all the way down. lol
TKG we miss you guys!
I miss tagging along with TKG. This Guild has mad Skillz. I was hoping to get some match ups with some of your roamers but never see you guys.
Are you guys still active flake?
1.) WvW Rewards and Progression
2.) Making WvW Alt Friendly (WxP) account based or another solution
3.) Zerg Busting so smaller groups can compete against much larger forces.
Stomp points should of stayed the same. What kills me is the Devs had said before they don’t like to nerf or buff something only to make dramatic changes later on, but they rather make tweaks here and there. A good tweak was reducing the stat boost and leaving the point stomps and see how it goes. Please bring back the stomps.
So based on multiple answers:
If you’re alone, 10-20 man will feel like a blob.
Someone said 35+ feels blobby.
50+ is a blob and another said 75+ is a blob.Maybe we should set a standard so we can really define what numbers are needed to form a blob ^^
Yawn This discussion is so boring. Blobbidy Blobbidy Blobbidy. Can we turn this discussion into something more fun please?
King of the Hill!
And LULZ player, thanks for the fights! Nice Flamethrower!
Greetings fellow warriors.
Perhaps someone can re-freshen my memory about the subject we were supposed to have studied for today from the magnificent :Battle Field Manual 1023: Bookahs in Combat, a Nuisance or An Opportunity" written by Professor Mancito.
Was it chapter 13 “Bookahs as Shields and Shade”?
or was it chapter 113 “Advanced Mine-sweeping With Bookah-Detectors”?
My note book, which had the assignments in it, got wet from tears I shed while being spawn-camped by OPP.Professor Weasel
JQ [RATS] Cadet First Class, Genius ExtraordinaireA small ops team locked [RATS] down at spawn? Really?
We go where the fights take us.
Hello everyone My name is Wilson… I play a warrior in the small man squads of Jade Quarry’s Strike Force. I have been making videos for only about a month now. With the great fights OPP has been providing this week I really wanted to post this video here for all to enjoy. I only have a free version of Bandicam, so I miss a ton of stuff but here are some highlights anyway.
Dude give [Opp] a break, clearly their guild name was meant to be ironic. Like people who give their fat friend the nickname “tiny” I hear their guild leader’s nickname is
Sir Robbin The Brave.Here’s Opp’s latest fight against the ambient creatures of JQBL
I heard oPP are xferring to JQ soon anyway :/
Only for the right price. If you ask how much it will cost, then you can’t afford us.
Thank you for putting this online!
OMG, dude thank you for the laughs Gully. That was too funny. Man if I was Lulz, I would change my guild name and move servers. This is just embarrassing.
So is JQ and TC’s strategy tonight to ignore Blood Lust caps? This is seriously boring. I want SoR back. At least they put up a fight.
I was farming Riot this morning. You should wake up earlier.
How about you come farm us now that we have more than 3 people on?

http://www.twitch.tv/docmedb2e/c/2975783Good fights. Thank you, NS.
Oh snap…
LOL, Boulder put the smack down oneth you my friend.
Not quite, before the GvG started and between every round, oPP members would constantly attack us putting us into combat and just being trolls. had respect for you guys back on Blackgate but wow..
Somebody had respect for us?
…
Wow, that’s a new one..
I respect you Veretta. LOL
Uh, no we didn’t attack before every round. lol, there was one member with his tag off, and another had his tag on that did attack you, I watched him messing with you guys after you attacked them first. They were just kidding around. That guy logged off well before RATS invaded the windmill. oPP was off running around roaming the map between the time he attacked you and later when RATS jumped in. We were not trying to ruin your GvG fun.
Thanks to umad and oPP guild for trolling our GvG. and then RATS for crashing it. Hopefully we can reschedule OnS.
Actually RISE attacked two of our members that were just going to watch the match, so you are going to get TROLLED by us if you attack us.
2nd, RATS chased us into South Camp (that we took anyways, when they got distracted by the GvG lol) . Not our fault they kept going to the windmill and wiped everyone.
(edited by Jado Cast.1805)
RIOT complaining about zergs when they 5v1 you with their gank squad. All I have to say is lol.
Solo roamers unite!
Quoted for truth.
So go get four friends and do something about it. That’s what we want anyways. LOL
I agree this could be an issue. For example, the new control points are going to encourage bunker builds, but to make things worse, what if someone throws down the Sup Ram and a tank keeps using the Iron Clad Buff and giving to allies to help hold the point. Not good. No siege should be allowed inside or near the Control Point.
Groups running Torment + Perpelx runes and the focus on condition specs and stuns have made the flavor of the month annoying in WvW. Then a necro pops Epidemic and Conid Boms everyone and switches to plague form to mop up. This needs some serious balancing.
They are way too powerful and need a serious nerf with ICD.
I think you should start an internet petition.
You are looking for Reason and Logic, when it comes to Anet’s story telling . . . well, move along sir/madam, there is nothing to see here.
+1 +1 +1 +1 +1 making sure I get my 15 characters so I can reply sigh
You know its bad when oPP and RIOT resort to taking towers so people will fight us. If there are any small roaming guilds left on SoR or DB, please come out and play.

Those Pesky Perma Stealth Thieves can be annoying. The number one counter is anticipation. Think Like a Thief™
For me it was this issue:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Gendarran-Fields-a-missing-Point-of-Interest
Still can’t get to it so no title for me.
I chose the Zephyrite Wind Helm, and even though I double checked with the preview window, I still received the Lightning Helm. Not sure if it was when I went into my inventory or when I transferred it between players using my Bank. Regardless, I really prefer not to have the pink. Especially since I used it for the Ticket that dropped.
I’m a long standing member of KISS in GW1, so its going to be weird fighting you guys now. GL
I feel many people who role thief for the gimmicks like Mug and take advantage of culling and even worse, the D/P Perma stealth crap will move on to something else, bc they have no skill. My main is a thief, and I expected Mug to be nerfed a long time ago which caused me to try several other builds so I don’t depend on gimmicks. Personally I have more fun with my condition thief than my backstab thief. My guild leader has always used a S/D build that heals him as he attacks and every patch so far has made him stronger. This one is no exception. He is going to have a field day with these new changes. lol
+1 to the OP, tired of the skill lag Anet.
I can tell you since the last patch that EB has been terrible, and tonight JQ BL was horrible lag. It’s not just the Culling, its the Skill LAG. It makes fighting so frustrating that for the first time in a long time, I just wanted to leave. I can’t stand Skill Lag. Culling I will deal with but not Skill Lag. Anet needs to fix this with the next update soon.
Also, Guesting has made some of the world boss fights, and temple fights have ridiculous lag to the point I can barely auto attack a dragon.
Troll Alert. From Blackgate, and this is your first Post on the forums? LOL, try harder next time. This thread should be closed just on the grounds of a weak attempt to troll and stir up nonsense conspiracy theories.
This is just one example of how the down state is not balanced, as there are many others. Downstate needs to be normalized for all classes. The will never be equally balanced until they are normalized anyways. IF it was up to me, I would take all skills from the downstate except the ability to heal yourself and everyone has equal HP and Toughness when downed. That’s never going to happen so at least normalize the skills and HP/toughness pool for all classes.
WM needs to move to SoR so we can have some Foo vs Merc vs WM action. That would be Epic! The Kaineng Experiment is over so let’s make T1 more balanced and Awesome!
In more interesting News, I heard the TC Doylak Parade was moving to Blackgate and Smokee will be the Grand Master leading the Parade. I have two unknown sources that have verified through a friend of a friend.
Tell Jang Gun, WM that Tier1 has JQ’s FOO for his challenge. Get up here and fight them! They’re very strong, and from our point of view, may be on par or even stronger than WM. You gotta come up here and prove :P
I can wait to see epic matchup of FOO vs WM vs MERC. It will be insane, as well as a good reason to slowdown JQ’s SEA domination for us.
I would like to see that on video!
I just wanted to stop by the Thread and say Congratz to TC, my former adversaries for moving back up to T2. I have to say I underestimated FA and thought SoS still had more fight in them to stay in T2, but you all proved that you deserve to move up.
Here’s an idea. I think WM and VoTF should transfer to TC and all the great guilds on CD, DB, SBI, SoS, and Kaineng from all time zones should move over to TC. Then you guys will take SoR’s place in T1. Then we at Blackgate, and TC can 2v1 JQ for the rest of eternity as punishment for their lack of role play. This will allow us to end the match early every week so we can move the Doylak Parade to Wed, and just GvG and Duel behind the windmill for the rest of the week. We’ll even allow JQ to participate if they want. LOL
j/k But Seriously I was cheering for TC. Way to go guys! We missed the Parade this week.
WvW has some incredible Lag. EBG is worse, can’t even use skills. BGBL is bad anytime there is 40 people even remotely close to each other. What happened, we somehow took a step backwards?
Please tell me some BG who read the forums were out at the NW tower in TCBL last night because oh my god I was laughing so hard I couldn’t concentrate and I hope you were too. We were going to mess around and catapult the tower from under the bridge. Naturally, we were caught, but not before an ele tried to slam into me and went over the cliff instead and died. That would’ve been enough and I’m sorry for my /laugh emote but it was just so amazing. Then I was trying to launch an engi off who was trying to stop us only to have 2 or 3 of my party including me feared off to our demise by a necro from above. As we are lying there dead, not 1, not 2, BUT 3 BG either jumped off on purpose or fell off the same exact cliff around our bodies one at a time. And, of course, died. Ahhh I’ll miss the kitten out of you guys. Serious shenanigans.
Did you get it on video? I wanna SEEEE
IF I was VoTF, I would go fight for whichever EU server is fighting RG. just saying, you want competition, there it is . . .
It has been an honor fighting TC on and off over the past few months, and I can say they are my favorite opponent. They are a Class Act. I would highly recommend them as I have in the past, that if any Guild or Person is looking to make a change, I would take a hard look at TC. They are just as skilled on the battlefield as any other server, and could use some coverage in the gaps, and I can see them to continue the move upward. I can’t leave my Native Beastgate, but If I did, TC would be the only place I would consider. /Salute to TC.
