Usagi.4835:

Wench? Be nice to me! Before I club you!

You wouldn’t club an adorable little asura, would you?

nalenb.1425:

Gisei.5749:

I just answered that.

Absolutely.

Being steam rolled, to me, is more fun than steam rolling.

As the steamroller you are in control, i.e. you can back off and allow the other servers to claim objectives, you can assess numbers and attack with only equal numbers, etc. If you are being steamrolled, you won’t be allowed to leave your spawn if the other server doesn’t want you to. I fail to see how that is more fun, but everyone is different.

Steamrollers don’t think about letting the enemy come out so they can have fun… I’ve seen deserted fields during the times when my server was steamrolling everyone. However if you’re being steamrolled, you can start think in a way to breakout, even if it’s only for a few moments, to get a fight.

Finally some sylvari!

Score update at 2023PM GMT/1523PM EST/1223PM PST with map!

We already have Gary on the score board, move along wench!

Altie.4571:

Can we please stop equating WvW population with SERVER population.

The two aren’t that closely tied together.

As for the question by the OP, no, it’s not.

If the first phrase was meant to me, i’m asking about exclusively WvWvW… For PvE, i can use guesting anyway, so it’s not relevant.

And for your answer, you could at least say what server it is, no? (Since it’s not written on your signature)

Servers tend to “die” when the big guilds leave it (Let’s take the exemple of HoD, IoJ and SBI). I’m curious about if there is a server that still actively play WvWvW even after such “death”.

Tell me people, you think your server is alive? Do it have a major W3 guild? It already seen better days?

waeren.9743:

Jeknar.6184:

I bet that will just leave the “randoms” more lost because I’m sure every commander just like to work with their own guild/group.

I’ve even saw a commander (No names or guilds will be said) say once: “Whoever isn’t from my guild, please follow the other commander, not me”.

There’s several reasons for that. The main ones being the other commander needs people and you eat up boons that could’ve gone to guild members.

They complain when they don’t get help, and they complain when randoms try to help… I don’t understand the commander types…

Raf.1078:

Basically, yes…but you always need a weapon to pair with your warhorn. I find it kind of hilarious to be pairing my “in your face” melee weapon with the item that lets me run faster.

Well, running faster so you can get away, or if you want to chase your enemy… Also you can always use the axe as MH.

I bet that will just leave the “randoms” more lost because I’m sure every commander just like to work with their own guild/group.

I’ve even saw a commander (No names or guilds will be said) say once: “Whoever isn’t from my guild, please follow the other commander, not me”.

I heard dagger necros are very good at manning Arrow Carts…

This is war, not some small scale field fighting… We need armies, not groups… We want 300 soldiers (SPAAARTAAA) on the map, not 50.

That’s all i have to say.

KinkyGiraffe.4123:

Writetyper.1985:

The bad:

-this will only help horrible commanders be more horrible.

If you find a commander to not be all that good at commanding, why not try and help him? I see a lot of people yelling and bagging commanders, i myself used to cop a lot of it till the mass exodus of IoJ, rather than actually talking to them, trying to help them out. Or better yet, stop whining about the bad commander, and stop following him.

People only care about their own noses… Why help someone if they can just throw rocks at him and find a replacement?

I’ve been thinking about getting the Commander Compendium to try rally people to do efforts on the maps where we are outmanned (I’ve tried without it, but like i usually say, people only listen to the Blue Dorito Man), but then I think people will problably just think i’m some baddie (since i’m not of one of the “Big WvWvW guilds”) and ignore me even more…

Solori.6025:

It would be so nice if they just removed the badges from the JP chest .

Then people that actually want to help their server, the ones that actually want to work towards a legendary by being productive in WvW and learn every aspect of the game, will get a legendary.
Those kind of people deserve to have them.

And it would kill all the QQ about JP campers.

Not gonna happen mate… And in opposed of what you want to happen, you will have a lot of people unskilled on PvP occupying the spots for more time, where you actually want WvWvW active players.

sestitodc.3567:

BG, you really didn’t need any golems to get to the delicious cookies we’ve been snacking on in your hills. We’ve had ~8 people on the entire map for the last hour and a half. PVE time since you kicked us off your map

“That’s too much siege” said no BG player yet…

Masamoon.3864:

If you’re using the http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA, its not accurate, cause they don’t know the exact formula change anet will be doing.

And it is written in the page… I bet he didn’t even read it.

The TC, zombie coast, definitely improved from last time we met. FA also show up in force this weekend. Please bring it for the rest of the week! We’re having a blast when you guys fielding huge zerg group to counter our meat ball

So TC are zombies and FA are meatballs? Lol. I like it

TC definitely zombies (resemble of Zombie Coast) but FA (Fort Aspenwood) as meatballs? Hmm… i will see if i can get a better nickname for them.

It’s Fort JANTHIR now… We should start saying FJ…

Hellian.8103:

If FA would stop worrying about the castle for a bit and start taking more keeps, towers and supply camps, we could actually chase down BG in points a bit and not let them run away with the match. While yes, the castle is worth the most points, those points are worthless of that’s all we own. We can always take it down again before the way point is purchased. That upgrade takes a long while to get and is really the only great reason to have the castle.

Myself and another FA trebbed the wall down at ogre watch and only one or two other people responded to my call for help taking it back. After no less than 10 minutes of cleaning out the NPC’s with only the 2 or three of us, BG showed up and killed us maybe 5 seconds before the tower would have flipped back to us. That is rediculous.

Hey it’s always nice to see the update pics with the castle in our column, but then looking at the number to the right of the castle icon being much lower than BG or TC I seriously wonder about the priorities of most of our players in EB.

Long Story short: “Forget the castle and do the math”

7 Supply Camps = SMC
5 Supply Camps + 1 Tower = SMC
3 Supply Camps + 2 Towers = SMC
2 Supply Camps + 1 Keep = SMC
1 Supply Camp + 3 Towers = SMC
1 Tower + 1 Keep = SMC

Now get in there and start capping!

Catisa.6507:

Monsoon.2589:

The scoreboard would be fine if it actually represented correct scores. unfortunately with the culling and invisible armies the scoring is a joke that that does not really represent a server’s capability when you get killed by invisible people

Seriously, you’ve completely lost me here. WTK does culling have to do with scores? The score is accurate.

He is problably one of those guys who think WvWvW should be about killing people and not about conquering territories…

4/4 queues… And it’s not friday reset… BG decided to show up with more force now?

Anyway, score updates. (I’m not closing in my face because my Ranger got mauled by a Bear)

So you’ll nude on your ranger but not your sexier ele? What? :o

Oh and nice shot of Jormag’s Claw in the background there!

Fine… There you are… But don’t get used to it.

Ardon.4105:

One thing I’ve noticed from FA is that a lot of them seem to be running some pretty scary damage builds. That, when in the right position, they can nuke just about anyone, but when caught unawares or in the open field, things tend to take a turn for the worse. A human ballista if you will.

We found many o’ ’da same problems when facing Choo.

We pirates and salty dogs in TSL have developed o’ mighty fine strat ‘ta combat ’dis type o’ setup, and it be greatly effective at combating Choo, and has wrecked ’da FA groups we be commin across.

If ye be runnin ‘da right setup, ’dis type o’ build be no problem, because they be not gettin’ any attacks off matey.

Why are you talking like a pirate?

Because he is one?

Jayne.9251:

(I’m not closing in my face because my Ranger got mauled by a Bear)

OMG! You’re RPing!!

Indeed… I don’t see a problem in doing some… I play a lot of D&D and Storyteller too.
But that one was some other guy idea in the end: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/22-12-BG-SoR-TC/page/2#post1068083

Scores while I wait for the EB queue…

11h30pm on GMT -3 (5pm on PST)

Pssst pssst…hey….psssst, there’s something on your face. Either that or you survived a bear attack.

And the said SS: https://dviw3bl0enbyw.cloudfront.net/uploads/forum_attachment/file/32601/gw086.jpg (Didn’t attached it to not polute our thread scores)

enLight.1695:

Lately, there has been a lot of talk about the queue queue bug.

I just wanted to bring it to the community’s attention that Stormbluff Isle has, so far, not experienced it. And from what I’ve read in other threads on the topic, neither have other low-population servers (like Eredon Terrace).

The queue queue bug only seems to be affecting bandwa—I mean, high-population servers.

Maybe this is a coincidence? Maybe SBI is just lucky? Either way, I hope Anet gets to the bottom of this as soon as possible!

So the queue issues are only affecting servers with pops high enough to have queues. Servers with no queues are not experiencing issues with their queues. Go figure.

In other news, people who do not own cars are less likely to experience mechanical issues with their car than people who do own cars.

A bus also can have a car problem. (Unless you people call it “bus problem”)

4/4 queues… And it’s not friday reset… BG decided to show up with more force now?

Anyway, score updates. (I’m not closing in my face because my Ranger got mauled by a Bear)

Go to Eredon Terrace… They need people…

I wonder why we use Dolyaks and not pack bulls to carry supplies… Look how much stuff this guy can carry:

All i can say is that NA matchs had a lot of deadmeat in middle tiers while the last two tier were too balanced to start moving up. That’s sending those servers right to the bottom, and the top will adjust gradually…

Why don’t you enjoy some new adversaries? Or maybe you think your server isn’t strong enough to make it again to the top?

Jayne.9251:

Swamurabi.7890:

Why is there crafting stations in WvW when you can’t get all the mats in the WvW maps?

You can actually. There are all tiers of ore and wood scattered around the maps. I’m not 100% sure about leather and scraps, but I believe they’re in there, too.

I’ve only seen green wood, hard wood and elder wood so far… For leather and cloth, those drop off the skritt/centaurs according with your character level. You can also salvage stuff for materials.

Just check the commanders in the map… I hardly see more than 3, so it’s easy to know who it is.

Gobi.7508:

I feel your pain… Here some cookies n milk. Forget about JP.. This isn’t place for you to be at this time.. Come back later…Not trolling. I’m serious..

Oh yes.. I almost forgot…ROFLAWLOLOLOLOLHAHA

I would like to add to your laughter a HUEHUEHUEHUE.

That’s the stats for my mesmer level 35 with full greens… The stats on my armor are Vitality and toughness just as my traits. I don’t deal much damage (i’m not focused on that anyway), but i’m hard to kill.

Magiofdeath.2745:

Scores Update… And NO! No nuding… Screw you!

Do it or get Feisty back to doing the updates! :o

Oh you want some nuding? Here some nuding for you then:

Score update at 0209PM GMT/2109PM EST/1809PM PST, though no map update since I’m still queued. So bored.

There your map:

I’m going to unleash my new upon upon you all!

Did you know theres a mystic well in the EB Jump Puzzle.

Makes you stealth for 5 min. And theres more then one through out the jump puzzle.

It dosent last long enough, i turned invisable but then it ran out…

whos fault is that? get better at jumping and you can make it through the entire thing stealthed

Actually you can’t be stealth 24/7 because of the dark room, you need a torch and you cannot pick up the torch while stealthed.

There are tricks to do that… And even some videos that show how… I, however, never made it…

Porky.5021:

Jeknar.6184:

wads.5730:

they kill you because they know you’ll get mad, plus they want badges just like you, what better way than to kill you for them.

Actually I can make badges faster by jumping than killing…

Not if someone kills you first.

And who said people kill me?

kitten.3178:

I don’t wanna leave T2 just yet

Beat TC, and you won’t…

Krakah.3582:

DuckieGirlie.8972:

~Why do I want the chest? because I need badges of honor and I don’t really like doing WvW/killing people, I’m a PvE person, not PvP, why not make it fair for us PvE’ers to get jumping puzzles?

PvP players don’t want PvE in their WvW either, but PvE tears are so delicious thus there’s JP camping.

If you want PvE tears, go do AC exp

AncientAstronaut.7602:

THESE jumping puzzle zones within the PVP zone should be made non-PVP…..

Pay attention on the key words, and rethink your comment.

Usagi.4835:

Hey, Feisty! Back off!

-1

I don’t see beautyful eyes in the screenshot…

Hexin.5603:

And one more, to the upscaled folks. Gear scaling. Ensure your armor is at least the same level as you are, not going to say exotics and rares every lvl for 80 lvls … just try to ensure you get gear equal to your current level so it scales you and you are not an 80 running with a lvl 60 armor/weapon.

Indeed… My mesmer is full masterwork in level 35 and i have roughly 32k HP and 2,9k Armor. Some big meat chuck there…

MarMaster.6241:

Is the only chance to get to the “new, improved formula T1” after this match, to really dominate your foes?
Leading to Sorrow’s Furnace, Kaineng, Ehmry Bay being the first to hit “new math T1”?

I’d add Blackgate on that list… Unless Fort Aspenwood is a tough costumer.

covenn.7165:

Boom.9304:

Can we please keep this thread to the topic at hand?

I’d really like to see it stay open through the beginning of this match rather than it being closed before reset even occurs..

Oh I agree with you. Hopefully a moderator will come in here and clean up all the blatant forum violations.

Already did… I got 1 infraction point.

Actually i think that the more people cry about dying on the JP, the happier Anet will be… Have you seen the tons of traps and stuff intented to kill people on EBJP? I’m sure they want blood spilled there… Even the instructor tell you about the JP when you talk to him. I think your point is actually flawed.

Orikx.9671:

Blade.9317:

Interesting predictions by our forum experts. In my opinion let’s just have fun and see how the match plays out.

I predict ICoa will continue to troll the forums and not be able to back it up in game riding the coat tails of their server mates that have skill.

And I predict that SoR will keep comming to our thread just like BG kept going on theirs when it was SBI/SoR/TC.

Alaric.6125:

But three people to kill one person isn’t that a bit of overkill. plus it also damages your armour and so you spend half of your hard earned coin on repairs. I believe they should remove that feature from WvWvW.

Overkill? There is no such thing as overkill… I’d Eviscerate (F1 axe warrior for those who don’t know it) a rabbit with maximum adrenaline if i had the chance…

pot.6805:

Looking forward to this matchup. Thank Zhaitan the forum warriors from that one server won’t be in the t2 matchup anymore.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?! How can i fight while i wait on the queue if there is no forum warriors?!

Krakah.3582:

It’s nice to see FA ready to dish out good fights. To TC, we’re coming back with fireworks, and Fiesty Brat score boards. See you all after reset.

Didn’t you hear? You can only post scored updates if you’re naked. New rules. /nod

You sicken me! You could never understand the wholesome nature of Feisty’s updates!

Tomorrow at reset behind the Garrison after gym class, we fight!

Bah… It’s all about Feisty around here… I’ll never bring scores up again…
Please just shoot me to death.

I’d say we already can be sure (since the new matchups will be based on this week) that we’ll have:

T1 – Jade Quarry/Sanctum of Rall /Sea of Sorrows
T2 – Blackgate/Tarnished Coast/Fort Aspenwood
T3 – Kaineng/Maguuma/Dragonbrand
T4 – Stombluff Isle/Crystal Desert/Yak’s Bend
T5 – Ehmry Bay/Isle of Janthir/Devona’s Rest
T6 – Borlis Pass/Anvil Rock/Northern Shiverpeaks
T7 – Darkhaven/Gate of Madness/Henge of Denravi
T8 – Sorrow’s Furnace/Ferguson’s Crossing/Eredon Terrace

Since everyone will have the same ratings… I think Ehmry Bay will be the one to get more rating since it will be facing the same two servers it’s already dominating.

I think Kaineng should go back to T8 with Denova’s and Ferguson’s…

Yeah that was a troll post…

Now talking serious… Just let Kaineng actually hit a hard spot to say if they are good or not… Just saying that the server isn’t ready without even knowing what you will be facing is a bit ridiculous…
