Guild Wars 2

Bubi.7942:

ormagahd we can’t win gold league our server is deadz!

They never been able too anyway… T1 too stronk…

Mishi.7058:

Actually prior to my break they happened due to groups being very organized and very little bannering. However people used tactics, along with siege, and could drive off the enemy, or defeat the defenders and secure the objective. Then again maybe that was only tiers 1/2

Ironically, those complaining are from the higher tiers…

thiagoperne.7340:

AmFah.5974:

“•Players can now continue gaining world experience rank rewards after reaching rank 10,000.”

it works, thanks anet! <3

You already knew this more then 2 weeks ago by the Dev, but looks like you want to bump your thread to show this meaningless achievement again, no one cares.

And you just bumped it again with your response… And I’m bumping it again by responding to you…

And the cicle goes on…

We had a bunch of tags on EBG at NA T8 today… But we did that on purpose and everyone had agreed with that. We usually don’t even have a tag up…

The group with more warriors shouldn’t always win… This change prevent that.

Mystic.5934:

I’m curious: will the devs be playing as generic players, or will they be sporting a Anet tag? and can the enemy see our intimidating red tag ally?

The Anet tag is the tag of their guild… If the Dev will be representing your guild, they cannot be with the Anet tag.

amem to that…

Anubis.9346:

Sorry, we left for Archeage.

Too late Anet, soon you’ll realize that you have lost your player base.

We’ll be waiting for your return, just as you returned when you left for TESO and Wildstar.

FarmingPanda.4359:

wow, where have you all been? First time you’ve seen 5 guild catapults for an undefended paper tower? Log on more during SEA timezone and you’ll see 5 guild catapults for EVERY paper tower, 7 for EVERY reinforced tower, 10 for EVERY fortified tower 6 of EVERY paper keeps, 9 for EVERY reinforced keeps, 15 for EVERY fortified keep — defended or not. I guarantee you will bleed from you nipples every time you try to defend.

DR’s credit card for buying guilds may be limitless, this scrub has limitless credit card for his sieges and his full collection of legendaries.

We are bunch of tryhards.

This post taste salty…

And how you would suggest that they rank commanders? I’m curious…

Asquared.4091:

I wonder if they will spend much time in the bottom of Bronze League, wandering aimlessly through the empty borderlands.

Well, I sent the invitation for [STDs] here on Eredon Terrace and there are other guilds on my server who did it aswell… I really hope we get at least one so they can see how things are down here on the bottom of the barrel and I would love to hear their opinion (as a player at least) about it.

Actinotus.6410:

honestly SoS had a much better time last season than BG did. i’m looking forward to tourney

Last season JQ/TC decided that they would bully BG… Who knows if this will happen again, or if JQ will be the one bullied this time.

Only time will tell…

Svarty.8019:

… but strangely it is still the case.

T1 EU Blue is winning, green is 2nd
T2 EU seens pretty even with Red slightly ahead, green is 2nd
T3 EU Blue is winning, red is 2nd
T4 EU Green is winning, red is 2nd
T5 EU seens pretty even with Blue slightly ahead, green is 2nd
T6 EU Blue is winning, red is 2nd
T7 EU seens pretty even with Blue slightly ahead, green is 2nd
T8 EU Green is winning, blue is 2nd
T9 EU Green is winning, blue is 2nd

T1 NA Red is winning, green is 2nd
T2 NA Green is winning, blue is 2nd
T3 NA Blue is winning, green is 2nd
T4 NA Green is winning, blue is 2nd
T5 NA Green is winning, 2nd is very close with red slightly ahead
T6 NA Green is winning, blue is 2nd
T7 NA Blue is winning, green is 2nd
T8 NA Green is winning, blue is 2nd

So, from a total of 17 tiers, we have right now only 6 following the pattern… I think it’s enough proof that it isn’t always the case as it used to be.

Svarty.8019:

• Green means you are expected to win
• Blue means you are expected to come 2nd
• Red means you are expected to lose

This was only true when there wasn’t RNG rolls to determine matchups.

Allisa Wonderland.8192:

I got an ascended chest at Tequatl with a level FOUR character. Plenty of disgruntled witnesses to it… I had no level 80 characters on the account, so I of course leveled just so I could make use of the weapon.

How the hell you were able to damage somenthing enough to get credit on a level 4 toon?

SonOfJacob.7396:

kikojak.7051:

Because i wanna level them up through WvW but that would mean that i might not get ascended chests.

I’m REALLY hoping you mean leveling them in Edge of the Mists…not one of the actual WvW maps.

Why?

Warrior and Guardian are the two professions that doesn’t require much to be effective on WvW. (Zerging wise at least)

Some people will say thief, because you can just stealth away from danger, but they really lack on big zerg fights in my opinion, since they are super squishy and don’t have the sustain a elementalist can put.

As you learn about WvW you’ll be able to go with your other professions and play the one you like most on the style you preffer most (Zerging, Roaming, etc)

Ryu.3972:

Because of this unfair matchup, Mag is pretty much dead in wvw now.

The irony is: Prior season 2, all T2 wanted was to be SoS/Mag/FA BFF… You have absolutely no idea of how people frowned upon the idea of Dragonbrand being on T2 (Which ended up happening because of SoR implosion).

Now all T2 want is to no longer be this same tier they wished to be…

Arius.7031:

They’ve been through more than any server NA server (probably EU server too) and they’ll continue until they’re clawed their way out of t8 by force if they have to.

I belive Vabbi beat us on the EU side… But no other NA server have endured what ET have.

Rode Pix.4059:

For me, the difference is that if you have a treb on a gate, you can still destroy it from another tower. Here the bridge is protecting the cata’s. From my point of view, using this glitch is not fairplay and this is cheating. What do you think about ?

You can treb the bottom of the bridge and the splash damage hit the catas…

Fair play.

The splash damage of the catapults might be able to damage the wall from below… There are various spots where this happen across many towers/keeps.

I’m not sure if they were intented, but it’s not really a bug. It’s more like a broken mechanic of the game. (Like trebs being able to damage rams on the other side of the gate)

Right now Mag rating is lower then the old CD rating. If CD stop losing rating, and mag keep bleeding rating like that, they might be able to still evade gold.

zhonnika.1784:

May as well say that there’s only 5 servers in gold, which makes it just all the more lame.

Not that someone can compete with the top 3 anyway…

ErlendR.6107:

Tell me why that sever is still in t2. How much r they gonna suffer?
-3-

Well, SoR suffered 9 weeks of Season 2 when they clearly didn’t belonged there… Mag at least will only suffer for 4 weeks.

Arcadio.6875:

SoS/FA/Mag
CD/YB/DR

Worst possible roll in terms of getting CD into T2.

Mag stays in gold?

Unless CD ppt really hard (which is unlikely since all the top 5 silver are somewhat even in this off-season) yes, Mag is golden for the next 5 weeks.

Chaba.5410:

Servers in T3-4 right now are not fighting to their full potential. The competitive matches are merely an illusion and do not predict actual tournament performance.

So you are telling us that 5 servers have not fought their fullest for 8 weeks straight?

skullmount.1758:

dandamanno.4136:

I’d love it to be expanded upon actually. I’d like overmanned armies to get a “Overmanned” debuff, where you no longer get a downed state.

You should still be able to win since you outnumber the other side, unless of course you are a terrible zerg, and the other, smaller opponent groups are more organized and skillful.

That would be interesting. We know they can remove it (due to the upcoming “feature” patch newbie leveling changes), so it could be done. Don’t think it would be that helpful for the outmanned server, since they probably wouldn’t have enough numbers to down any of the enemy zerg/blob.

Oh it would really change the scenario at least on the most of the lower tiers, where you have one mindless blob taking the other servers stuff.

Most of time they die like a EotM K-train under a single superior AC. Without downed state it would make so much easier to stop their attacks that I’m sure the scores would be a bit more balanced.

retsuya.4708:

They should add a point per stomp/kill if outnumbered. It doesn’t affect the fight much but at least the outnumbered team can get some points defending before everything gets flipped.

I don’t know… This would lead to the elitist groups complaining you joined their outmanned map and they lost their buff which was making them give points to the server by killing people. The idea is good but you know how some people are….

manarchon.2089:

In EOTM not giving up your position is the way to cap big objectives like keeps and towers exspecially if enemy is stronger than you. If youre stronger you can just wait until they show up and kill them = bags.

Best way to avoid fights all together in EOTM is to wipe the enemy in the first hour of a round so many times they are demoralized and dont attack you and run when they see you. Bunny’s zerg can do this.

Technically, if you are wiping someone you are not avoiding fights…

Zetsumei.4975:

you also don’t get wiped if you avoid all the fights

Questionable… Your group might be avoiding fights, but a group looking for fights can come for you and make you wipe. The only way to 100% avoid a wipe would be not give your position on the map, which is kinda impossible since EotM is mostly mindless PvDoor with orange swords popping at every objective you hit.

Straegen.2938:

Drop down a tier or two and finding 20 people across all maps outside NA prime on a server is difficult (DB and CD are probably the only two).

Unless SotD left Darkhaven, DH have a solid 25+ on SEA. If the other servers didn’t had more or just as much, I really doubt DH would be rank 17, since OCX/SEA pretty much inflate a server score (which mean, pushing up on ranks).

Just because you belive that every server below T2 is a complete wasteland, doesn’t mean it really is.

Banzie.5248:

RNGs taken the .6% chance before… May we all pray to the RNG gods this reset for mag to drop.

I personally would like to see that miniscule chance of them facing DR, just to see how the bandwagon deals with them.

This post taste salty… Just saying…

Rimmy.9217:

Let me know if you do this – Jeknar has always wanted to slap my actual face, rather than chasing my rainbows.

I can’t leave my country however… I don’t have a passport.

Also, it’s 1500-1600 US Dollars (Roughly 3500 Brazillian Real) just for the plane tickets. Which make financially impossible for me to take part of that. (Values based on a trip from São Paulo to Ottawa)

kesuh.3891:

I would like to see a Screenshot of that 12k dmg from Rangers Gs Skill 2 ;D ?

Anet and their funny forum censor for screenshot -_- S S turns to kitten xD

Well, he said fully buffed, so I belive he mean when he’s on a zergball with 25 might stacks and stuff… My ranger hit an avarage 7k-8k Maul crits on full exotic zerker with no might at all.

I also use Become The Bear for some one-shot crits for the lulz… The damage is kittenedly high, but the build is unreliable since it can’t really sustain the dps.

Deli.1302:

Nemis.6874:

Just check the spells :’D 100% WvW/GvG HC player. I think he is from Red Guard

He also said he got half his title from playing wvw. Nothing implies he used those skills when he did wvw, just in eotm (where your skills don’t matter anyway).

Actually nothing implies that he use these skills… He can pretty much change them just to rile everyone up.

azizul.8469:

if the match up system still rigidly follow the glicko rating points, Mag would still be in gold. this is because the rate of their rating point dropping is even slower every time SoS gaining theirs. the gap between SoS and Mgs is almost 300 points now.

Yeah, but if the RNGod decide that Mag will get a T3 matchup next week, one of the two servers on that matchup will be screwed. Or even the one that get on the T2 if it’s able to “compete” with SoS/FA.

Marcus Antonius.1904:

Today we celebrate our Eredon Terrace Day!

/cheer

ET FTW

Does this mean I need to start organizing ET offline meet Round three? New York has been done, Las vegas has been done. People have been asking for Canada next.

Come to China <3 So You can visit me

Frost.6748:

Another thing to consider: Anet hasn’t specifically said that the leagues are remaining the same, unless someone has more info than is posted here:

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/announcing-the-world-vs-world-fall-tournament-2014/

There is a red post in a recent thread that says that the league will be the same 6/9/9 with swiss style. So it is the same as Season 2, except that it will be shorter, and the meta achievment is now split in weekly activities instead.

Straegen.2938:

IMO faster to just gold farm.

That’s the magic of GW2… We don’t need to farm itens. We just farm gold and buy what we need from TP.

MasterD.4790:

lmao…. new meta……siege cap map so no one can actually build rams!!

The cap actually is separated per server… So you can only cap your own server.

There still a blue camp on FA BL…

TexZero.7910:

If WvW becomes anything like EoTM you will have 0 population left.

People want large scale fights, server based communities and guild based actions. Not PvDoor / Karma Train nonsense.

You argument doesn’t sound right when there is actually more people playing EotM than WvW…

I’m over 1470 and I never got a ascended chest. (I got some rings however, which isn’t impressive as they are easily obtainable)

So that’s a 0/1470.

Protor.9716:

btw. someone know, is there a cap for flame ram’s ?

Yes. But aparently they have their own cap and do not count toward the map siege cap total.

I love how you ignored the fact that you said that your server could flip TC stuff (but not JQ’s), and didn’t got your POIs while TC was green (which was 2 weeks ago).

I supose you really just want the POIs to be handed to you…

yanniell.1236:

What difference does it make to lower the population to 50 per side when outside NA prime some servers has 10 people on total and the other has 50 on each map? It wouldn’t even come close to solve the coverage issue.

All this idea does is to generate huge queues on prime times.

That’s exactly the point… People would have to choose between move to other servers or wait in the queues.

Romek.4201:

there is your problem …. zerker gear dont work in wvw^^

Say that to thieves…

Rimmy.9217:

Edit: Jeknar beat me to the colour point by nine minutes. Guess your lack of comprehension/ability shows up to others as well.

gg

The most even servers are problably the ones at T3 and T4 (Altho T4 seen a bit loopsided atm… But YB was able to turn that around last time they faced DR).

SYPHA.9283:

The sides that i need havent changed colors in 3 months.

Didn’t change in 3 months eh? Let’s see:

Week 35 (08/30 – 09/06) – JQ (Green), BG (Blue), TC (Red)
Week 34 (08/23 – 08/30) – JQ (Green), TC (Blue), BG (Red)

We already had BG changing sides, which mean that the line “They haven’t changed colours in 3 months” is invalid, but let’s continue…

Week 33 (08/23 – 08/16) – TC (Green), JQ (Blue), BG (Red)

SYPHA.9283:

We only seem to flip with TC

Following this quote, you could have gotten green POIs on this week. Which was… 2 weeks ago? TC was also green at Week 31 (08/02 – 08/09) and Week 25 (06/21 – 06/28).

Blackgate was green for the last time on Week 24 (06/14 – 06/21)

Eh, this looks like spvp to me…

But anyway, if you got auto-balanced you receive a win regardless if you lost or not. You also get some extra points from Auto-Balance volunteer.

oxtred.7658:

It’s easier to play on EotM because it’s the official farming map. WwW ranks are supposed to be about World versus Word ranks, meaning that someone not fighting for it and just capping points over on over on a dedicated farming map shouldn’t be rewarded for that. Anyway, I won’t bring your success for a rant topic. Still congratulations.

What about the people that capture undefended towers and keeps on the regular WvW maps? Isn’t it the same?
