The title is part of the joke, you guys took it way too serious. Was meant towards the perma stealth with cnd chaining. Got so much hate for that.
The thief hate is too much. Mainly coming from people who just suck against thieves or don’t like their mechanics.
Anyhow, regarding the video itself, I see tons of idiots getting trolled. And it was a successful troll, props for the guy who did it (you).
Even if I tried, I couldn’t make a thread as stupid as this. Do not make your server look bad by posting such nonsense, as I happen to have enjoyed fighting SFR and have both respect for them, as understanding for their tough situation, which they share with Desolation.
Everyone keeps skipping the fundamental points of this whole thing. Which are, the ranking system is horrible, causing this matchup to become neverending. And Viz have tons more people, with the numbers from SFR and Deso decreasing due to the pointless battle it has become for weeks, which perpetuates the first point.
Again, I’m not talking about how bad any playstyles are, because I actually think all our servers use the same fundamental tactics. But the difference in numbers is just tremendous.
I find it sad but I think wvw is slowly dying .
In T1 it is, due to the points I’ve mentioned above.
“1) Elementalists, guardians, and thieves will no longer be able to destroy trebuchet projectiles”
That… sucks!
Really one of the worst things Anet could’ve done.
How are we supposed to get into keeps now if we can’t defend our catas and trebs?
Are you even serious? I mean, for real? That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. This should have been done from the start.
> sorry about the double post, everyone <
3.) That was never the real problem of dealing with Thieves, anyway. All the extra Revealed did was punish Thief players for being a bit more tactical with using Stealth as a defense. Not to mention, it throws off a player’s timing in a fight.
Hell, they’re supposed to be the local “Ninjas” – walk in, cap a high-profile target, then GTFO. It’s why their access to defensive Boons is rather limited, overall.
Thank you. Brains over mindless QQing.
I just want to state what I think, in the most brief and simple way I can.
- Viz has a LOT more players in WvW than SFR and Deso. The number of people Viz have is overwhelming, the number of players in SFR and Deso continues to decrease. I recognize Vizunah’s organisation and skill, but this hasn’t been why they have won for over a month now.
- With the currently horrible ranking system, this matchup will never, ever change, which makes it staggering to think why it hasn’t been changed already.
- The problem aren’t the zergs. I don’t care, at all, if we are in a map with the same number of people and 1/2 servers are massive zerging, as that is not the most efficient way if the map is full. But that just doesn’t happen, only on EB on certain occasions.
Thief is to OP 3 reasons:
Stealth ability is way too long.
Hard to fight back when they can be in stealth 80%+ of the fight and move out of your AOE traps and snares at will. This is the number 1 reason why people hate thieves. Their ability to keep you from seeing them in order to retaliate outside of AoE attacks is way to over the top.
Mobility is way too good
They can get out of roots slows anything that inhibits their ability to move. Movement is independent of conditions that slow that ability.
DPS spike is way too high
They can spike kill you almost instantly unless your class has the ability to trigger protection when hit. No other class in the game has all 3 advantages in one so the theif is OP due to that fact.Everyone knows this that has played a theif up to lv80 with full PvP gear. It is very easy to kill every other class once you know your casting orders and watch your condition bar so you don’t kill yourself when your mez bombed. No other class can compete with a thiefs abilitys.
While you could complain about high DPS, which would already be unbelieveably ridiculous, the first two points you made are just ridiculous. You do not understand how a thief is played at all, period. Please, actually read the posts on this thread, it’s what they are here for.
I don’t think you should go on the server you are facing at that moment to “steal” their members. To me it’s kind of low and gives a bad impression about all of the Blacktide players. As if we are trying to convert the enemy to join us…
If you want to do this, do it on servers we are not facing at the moment, there are enough servers out there. Maybe try it in lower tiers if you really want to recruit players?
Aws, seriously? So both Blacktide and Arbor are trying to sabotage us now, how fascinating. Just had one Arbor dude trying to steal our golems from Overlook and then we have this Toglos dude fooling around, being as useful as a windshield wiper on a goat’s rear end. You guys are so dishonest that I can’t even be sure that what you tell me are lies!
^ This is what happens when you do this. Now this guy is blaming all of Blacktide for doing this when it’s just 1 random person pretty much 99.9% of the server doesn’t even know.
Although he is also wrong by blaming all of Blacktide when it’s just 1 person.
Seriously…
The thing is, they were on Desolation before the WvW reset. They had no way of knowing Desolation would be paired up with BT and that’s something you seem not to be aware of. Regardless of that, suggesting that this is somehow a form of sabotage or that it will reflect in -any- way whatsoever in the WvW score is ludicrous. There are no devious intentions behind this, I just wish this was clear to everyone.
Toglost is actually a surprisingly fitting nickname for him. He’s always been a bit of a local joke on Blacktide – I hope he will give you great laughs too.
I don’t know why you’re spreading bs around, but I don’t really mind, since I’m actually glad you’re clueless. Happy holidays!
