Oh no, not ANBU DH again…
At least we can play with CoSA. (Which said they disbanded and there still a lot of they around)
I like ET as a server, but my goodness you guys are HUGE kitten! I’m roaming trying to find a fight and all i can find from ET is 10 of you sitting in OW waiting to jump 10v1. You run away 3v1, 2v1 and 1v1, come learn to fight lol. I have like sceenshots from 5 different days of the same [PlC] guys chillin in towers 10v1 lol.
It’s funny and ironic because: DH can’t fight yet they always try to, and ET can fight but are big kitten.
You went to pug paradise (aka EB) and want fair fights? Are you crazy? I just go EB when I’m on zergling mood, or when I don’t care to get merked with 10:1 odds.
cuz meditation guards that can go from 10% to 100% hp is really nice.
I’m not meditation and I can go from 10% to 100%… Juz sayin’ =P
Edit: Channeling my inner troll
BTW, you guys are talking a lot about cheese, but yall don’t know what is cheese.
THIS is cheese:

Another point to bring up is that “fair” doesn’t directly equate to = in number. We may outnumber you, but that only means it’s unfair numerically. Tell me, is a guild zerg of 30 outmatched by a pug zerg of 40? Is that an unfair fight? Numerically, yes, but overall, no (the opposite, it’s unfair to pugs).
Maybe not 30v40, but I’m sure 30v90 the said guild group would problably die… I’m pointing when you outnumber us with double or even triple of our numbers… Otherwise i would have said it was unfair the fight we were having at the tower where we had 4 and you guys were 4 + 2 pugs (making it a 4v6).
What specific example of a fight can you give that we called “fair” had us at a 3:1 advantage numerically? Specifics, please.
You said we ran from fair fights… But so far, the only fights I’ve seen us run away was when you guys brought a 20 man on our 5 man group that pushed us back to our spawn, or when we poke your bay and a hundred of pugs show up to defend it…
How about you saying what specifics fair fight we run away?
[BS] who is the squishy human/norn female guardian whiteish long hair? she’s my fav! <3
I don’t remember anybody who runs a human or norn female guard right now but will tell you when I get home today.
Tuna think it might be Ken… But idk. Ken’s toon doesn’t have long hair.
Which one are you again? Belle is the guardian in hotw (ftr, belle is awesome in fights), and you’re the… Mesmer Sylvari? IDK if I asked you already. Trying to remember. Anyways, we roam mostly in ET BL and sometimes AR BL, and I’ve noticed you guys generally hit Dh BL (and sometimes AR), so you probably haven’t seen us all that much.
Well, if it helps, I’ll try to make it to fight night and will ask some anbu to do the same. Hopefully the bad thief will be on around that time, he will most certainly show up lol.
No. I am the Human Guardian in HotW gear… Belle is our Human Necro.
I’m not singling out this post (or the poster) for attack or ridicule, but I would like to say that this is exactly why I still love Eredon Terrace. I see so many of these posts from “Bronze League” server’s but I rarely see them from ET (Except for a few disgruntled posters, that even thought they complain, they are still playing for ET). We know we’re fighting an uphill battle. We know we have to fight tooth and nail for everything we can and we STILL keep coming back for more. Outmanned? No problem. Died five times already trying to get into Bay to defend it? Maybe I’ll make it on the sixth! Just checked my phone and noticed our entire BL is painted someone else’s color? Time to get to the computer and flip it all back.
<3 you ET.
You missed a important point and I fixed that for ya.
Again, what you have said about the thief is PATENTLY false. He will attack your strongest players in 1v1s he knows he will probably lose. The one thing that NO ONE can say about this thief is that he will only fight when the conditions favor him. Every single person in ANBU will vouch for him on that fact.
I don’t recall running on the thief, outside zerg fights or during the fight we had on the Redlake tower on the monday (that ended in a zerg fight when you came down with a bunch of pugs). Either I’ve not roamed enough to encounter ‘he/she/it/whatchamacallit’, or we’re not talking about the same person…
Anyway, have your guys to show up on fight night. Last four weeks were plain dead… I am disapointed as I need to get better on 1v1. (which I can’t if I don’t have people to fight with)

isnt the core class mechanic of thief to be sneaky and strike when least expected?
Yup, it is… Still it’s annoying.
Ah BS, hide behind legendary guards, let them kill a person, then jump on said person/throw blueprints. I’ve tried VERY hard to like you, because you are good. You’re making it very difficult.
I realized why people are throwing siege on your thief… He hide and only come out to gank people when there is a 20 man zerg around… It’s a kitten move.
Now about going back to legendary defenders… Did you see how many kittening DH were there? You guys outnumbered at least 3:1, and there were a lot of bad pugs rallying up you guys. There is no way to fight like this.
No, we took it. Also, are you the ranger who keeps throwing siege on our thief? If so, why?
Edit: I should clarify, we took it with many pugs. We only beat BS later outside of your spawn with 1 pug.
No, I’m the guardian on HotW gear. And the person throwing siege on your thief was a warrior, not a ranger.
The 4man ANBU group gave up on Redlake at DHBL?
BS also stopped AR from recapping bay with their 12man group that ported inside… The mesmer waited 20 minutes to die in vain…
ET [DI] flame ram? really? after i gave you props last night for a great fight?
It could be worse: a ballista…
Tonight was exciting. Thanks for the fights everyone!
Yeah it was fun… But the this chat part was what made my night:
Kawagima: “Hell, there is like 30-40 AR comming out” (Orange swords pop up)
Sherocious: “Where?”
Kawagima: “On the orange swords”
Sherocious: “It’s only AR?”
Kawagima: “Huh, we have like 10 BS here”
Sherocious: “And you guys are still alive?”
Threnody of Belle: “Of course we are, we are pro.”
The cd on those elites is ridiculous and one of them turns you into a big fat green target. Necros, compared to a lot of other classes, don’t have the same options for stability without sacrificing a lot of utility.
Necros die so others can live… That’s how it works.
Why is ET so demoralized about themselves? you’ve got some skilled guild groups. Me and my guild [Zero] Have fun every night
thanks for making our time slot fun!
The truth is: ET has the potential to be ranked much higher than where it is… However it’s ET’s own fault that it isn’t. And some people are upset about this, thus why you see people disgruntled with it as result of the wasted potential…
ET, we are beyond pathetic. Seriously, seriously bad play. We don’t deserve to hold onto anything with how bad we are. The past two weeks have been horribly pathetic and I just can’t emphasize enough how bad we are playing.
Tip 1: Build rams when they are placed. They do more damage than you shooting the gate.
Tip 2: Build the cats when they are placed. They do damage to walls, you do NOT. Quit fighting the kitten wall for 2 minutes before using your supply.
Tip 3: Build defensive siege. When a place is being attacked, especially a tower, and 15 of us are defending the commander should NOT have to build all 3 superior arrow carts by himself. That is beyond pathetic and we deserve to lose if you continue doing that.
Tip 4: Learn how to place siege, for the love of god don’t place arrow carts where they can easily be hit, you just use up valuable supply.
Tip 5: Defend!!!!! If you are called to get somewhere, get there. Do not wait until the enemy zerg of 50 arrives and you can’t get in.
This isn’t rocket science, it’s basic common sense. I guess the best I can do is wish you luck, cause we have no skill.
+1 for the truth…
Please request from the moderator to move this thread by having the OP report thread and state “move thread” before the closure of this particular sub-forum
No! This thread must die with us!
So i didn’t realize DH was still so desperate that they still had to attempt to abuse a glitch that most servers don’t use anymore.. Its just reset night and i found 2 people trying to die at water gate in their own bay..
I don’t think any DH guild leader condones this; but, it remains pointless to post this stuff. Take the issue up with the guild itself. DH as a whole cannot control every action of every player. I’m sure no one on your server ever attempts to use this tactic xD. Leave this stuff out of this forum and go enjoy the game.
actually, we don’t. it’s a cheap tactic.
In fact it’s been quite a while since this was last seen on ET (2 months maybe?)
Oh great, Darkhaven… To not mention the buffed Manvil Stone…
Every time I try to get interested in playing Starcraft, I always think of this video and nope the hell right out of there.
I’m nowhere crazy enough to play SC2 on-line… I was playing the campaing and doing challenges.
I had my share of playing RTS on-line during my WC3 time, but like the guy said on video, APM don’t need to be so high for it. Also, MMO’s and Action RPGs (Like WoW and Diablo in my case), made me lose the touch of APM… I used to have a avarage 100apm while I played WC3 but today I barely reach 50.

We’ll still have another week, as the forums will only die on 2014… Next week I might do some serious show up, I’ve been playing Heart of the Swarm for the last 2 weeks so I barely logged on Guild Wars 2.
This subforum work much like a planet on Starcraft:
It’s full of Terrans (Users) living peacefully. Then come the zerg (Trolls) and start infecting people/structures (Threads) on the planet (Subforum). Then the Protoss (Anet), send it’s zealots (Moderators) to start culling (infracting/banning) the zerg. Seeing how it didn’t worked out, the High Executor (Community Coordinator) says “Purge it with fire to cleanse it” (Shut down the forum, so it stop).
I guess thats what i get for taking PuGs with me =\
I don’t understand the problems that most people/commanders say to have with the pugs on ET… Seriously, I never had half of the problems I hear you guys complaining about.
Now, I don’t really understand why would someone close a subforum due “high ammount of poison”… Like some people already posted, we are playing a technically competitive game mode and we can’t even have some smack-talk? I already find the fact that we can’t see our enemy names stupid enough, and now we won’t be able to call each other on forums because the over-zealous moderators are “working too hard”.
Take a look on the old WvW discussion subforum… If you get all this week matchups together you can cover at least 30 pages (in total of posts). Either because there isn’t much to be discussed or because the people that actually used to post there were people that came for reading their matchup thread and saw some interesting thread in the first pages of the discussion and decided to take part of it (I’m sure a lot of people used do that).
Of course, some players are too blame for their stupidity in taking “internet forum insults” too serious… If you just come around, chill a bit, do some trash-talk and don’t worry about it, you will be fine. Many of the forum warriors which I fight around here are my friends today because we don’t worry too much about this to go raging around like some cry-baby.
It’s totally my fault guys, my trolling powers have grown too powerful and this is the only way to contain it.
#allisvain
Yo momma is so troll that she got the entire subforum locked…
#VLKfeelings
The poison is contained right now… Destroying the container will just spread it all over…
The throwing siege always confuses me – is it an insult or an honor? Someone please tell me, I don’t know how to react and I feel I am probably disappointing someone by laughing when it happens.
It depends on the siege thrown…
If it’s a ballista, it mean your tomb only worth 16c. While a omega tomb worth almost 1g.
I agree with the first part, but the second one is questionable because it conflicts with my personal opinions about SMC…
SMC flip more constantly where the servers have more coverage than down here where most servers have huge coverage gaps. Basically for us lower tiers, if you hold SMC through the prime time, you won it (unless one of the enemy servers have a night crew you do not, but that problably will cost you more than just SMC) since things will be quiet for long hours where the castle is likely to get supplies and upgrade without any danger… Many times I went to sleep with an enemy paper castle, to wake up with a Iron Wall and WP in the middle of EB.
there you go, i made a fix because I have no arguments to continue this discussion
You missed a few words…
SMC is essentially a double edged sword. You get that ppt and you work to get that ppt but in the end, you have to hold it if you really want it. If your goal was just to take it momentarily, then it’s not a big deal. But if you plan on holding it, you need round the clock surveillance for it and most of the time, it’s not even worth the effort.

It was fun on EB today… We came to finish off what was left of GoM (after taking their BL), and then people demanded that vista on lowlands, so we had to take DR side aswell…
Then the initial idea was to hold Overlook and deny GoM of points so we can try for 1st, but some people decided to stay on lowlands to secure second… In the end we lost both keeps with our forces divided…
Oh Eredon…
Happy Wintersday GoM!
You can always come play with BS Jeknar. We rarely go homeland or EB. Always enemy if we can.
No matter how much I try, every day I go roaming I think I should stick with zerging…
I feel improductive if I’m not doing some PvDoor…
(edited by Jeknar.6184)
It’s all situational. How upgraded are each one? How many people do you have attacking it? How many people do you have defending?
In this particular situation, only 1/4th of our EB crew could have left to support the one person trying to defend Hills from the 3 – 5 ET attacking it and we still would have been fine in EB/SMC as no one was presently attacking it.
True… Overzealotry in defending the castle over the cost of everything else won’t help (that’s why I said one keep). Still I find it weird that GoM BL didn’t had a single person to defend a fully upgraded hills from 5 people… One or two people would problably be enough to stop this attack as the keep would likely have supplies for some superior counter siege.
Prizes were underwhelming to say the least. I did manage to get an Exotic bow however out of that chest. That said I really do not have a problem with it as it stands. It would have been worse overall IMHO had the prizes been higher and all those last minute transfers to winning servers garnered those benefits.
Yup… Not worth 1000-1800 gems…
Dear Detective Miss Winters,
If the Very Good Detectives [VGD] “Keep Devona’s Rest free of crime”, why it have so many thieves?
Seriously… I think that from every 10 DR players, 7 are thieves and the other 3 are some random upleveled class. I never ran unto so many thieves…
I’m despising SM a little more every day. If we don’t held it, trebs are going to be built (logged in yesterday to destroyed fortify walls in OL, and almost in OW…). And then it’s going to be under attack almost constantly and when someone asks help to defend something else, something that’s fortified (like Hills), the answer is “SM is more important”…
Well if you want to sacrifice other things for SM, at least correctly protect it, instead of losing it 20 minutes later. SM is worth one keep and five towers.
Heh… I’m the one who trebbed those walls (along with a guildie). So here is a good new: I’m not going to do it again. The commander on the map simply ignored the fact that we sit there for more than a hour trebbing those wall, and never attacked the overlook, ogrewatch or even helped the trebs when GoM amassed around us…. So, I will not waste my superior trebs and time on this anymore (and not everyone has the patience of doing super boring treb work)
Edit: Fixed the last part for you… Anyone who correctly controls SMC will control Klovan/Wildcreek/Durios/Quentin/Anzalias/Ogrewatch (since 2 are technically yours already, it’s 4 plus).
(edited by Jeknar.6184)
I’m both ashamed and disappointed. When a 3 man ET group takes GoM Hills, I call it a good play by ET. But when we call for help from EB to defend our Hills against that 3-man group and the response we get is “We don’t care about our BL, Stonemist is more important.” It goes to show that there is discontent in GoM. I think I can safely say that the majority of the WvW guilds in GoM are on the same page that our BL is the #1 priority and nothing else. That doesn’t mean that all of them are on the same page. But ALL of our WvW guilds only make up a small portion of the competition you see running around in WvW, the rest are pugz from other small guilds or players from the large PvE guilds in GoM.
There is a very long discussion about priorities in some servers… In fact, I belive the priority should be where you can hold more points…
Keeps worth 25ppt be it on Eternal Battleground, [Your Server Name] Borderland or [Enemy Server Name] Borderland. And I would gadly trade a bay keep on my server borderland for a hills keep in an enemy borderland as hills keep is a much defensible position compared to bay.
Stonemist Castle is the highest ppt on the maps (as it worth 35), and GoM has the advantage of being red (thus constantly controling the overlook, which is the only keep that can harass SMC). I’d pretty much priorize SMC over one keep (25<35) since SMC have 2 rows of walls/gates as any keep. Also, SMC have the advantage of being able to control all 6 towers around it (thus increasing the total ppt it worth).
Of course, most people down here think that BL lockdown is the best/only way to play, which sometimes get very disapointing… This kind of thinking is the reason you go to an enemy borderland and see no friendly living soul around for hours (And I personally don’t like it).
But in the end, who I am to tell people how to play eh? Those are just my two cents…
I’ll skip wintersday since I’m a grinch.
There is no Santa in Tyria…
i would not be surprised if BS tried to steal wintersday and i’m also sure no one would try and stop them
The Nightmare Before Christmas? I’m sure Belle would fit on Jack’s spot.
Yeah… I heard my 9th place Bronze League chest was better than 1st place Gold League chest.
I’ll skip wintersday since I’m a grinch.
There is no Santa in Tyria…
Leagues are done, y’all. Stop fussing.
No, HoD tanked!
Ok, so whats going on with the AR/SF matchup?
Same thing that happened last week
I heard it’s somenthing to do with oceanics…
[Dx] is always looking for 15v15 GvGs for Asian/Oceanic time zone.
If anyone interested, please let us know!
I doubt you’ll find people at your timezone… But then again, DH might have someone up.
Queues? I don’t understand….I’m from Eredon Terrace.
Sometimes we get a queue on ET BL during prime time, when everyone is pilled inside our garrison (which is likely our only node on all four maps).
I’ve played HoD for 3 weeks now…I would like to see another opponent besides HoD for once. Gotta say, I’m not feeling the love here Anet.
FC had to face ET and SF for 12 weeks straight and you are complaining about facing HoD (with a diferent 3rd server) for 3 weeks? pffft…
ET is already losing by a large margin? Nothing new to see here…
We jumped into second place last night for a min while I was commanding on DR and as of right now we are in second place ahead of DR by 4k.
Judging by the current DR situation, we might finish in second. But I don’t think we have a chance of beating GoM.
