It’s a part of the free to play business model. Flood you with loot, sell inventory spaces.
I agree it’s annoying but people HATE monthly subscriptions
It’s the massive heap of data (visual character models AND actions) coming from an enemy zerg as it approaches that chokes out your rig. For me, living out in the woods as I do, internet connection isn’t cutting edge. You have the option to limit the amount of visual fluff by selectimg Default Character Models down near the bottom of the general settings tab. This opens up more bandwidth for actions to be communicated at the critical opening moments of a big fight. Otherwise, the server is also trying to send you 80 different oh so fancy character models.
It would be handy to leave RF a bit early sometimes. Often, there’s a CC waiting for you right as you come out. The new virtue of courage helps with this, but I’d surely like the option to surprise a camper.
An amazing amount of players spend whole fights autoattacking the ground directly in front of their feet.
If you’ve managed to WvW any significant amount and aren’t at 2k… Well.. You might consider recording your gameplay to see if maybe its you.
Unlike in PvP, there is nothing to stop random PvErs from wandering somewhere they shouldn’t go. Should be fun, hopefully the ones with no experience don’t get too frustrated and learn the game type. In the meantime, enjoy your 1-hit kills.
Every matchup has ample space at the moment. However, I’m glad I’ve personally wearied myself of EB recently. In addition to big queues for everyone, the map can’t handle the size of fights that are coming to it again.
What’s the chance, if they do implement a rank incentive, that it’d be much more of a disadvantage for lowbies than say… The magic find buff.
I.E. not much
In that case the tier Mag is in will always get you fights. They could care less about PPT…only fights.
They don’t want fights, they just want to karma train. They run of they don’t outnumber their opponents. All they do is ktrain EB. Most boring server to fight. The only 2 ways they’ll fight is if they outnumber you or if they are in range of their staggering amount of defensive siege. I thought BG was bad until we got matched up with Mag. You are right though, they don’t care about PPT, that’s why their BL gets rolled without much resistance. Worst server ever…
Still waiting on HoT fulfillment.
Think I’ll pass on the $50 trait line.
Agreed, unfinished product. Can’t trust these guys.
i mean, the fact that their teams seems incompetent to produce legendary weapons and until recently the armor doesnt mean they are liars they just take longer
Why would anyone ever need to be mounted in this game? I’ve done all content without 1 easily and there is this feature call a waypoint.
Agreed.
Starting to look an awful lot like a WoW clone around here. Which is weird, considering mmos usually start out that way and move away from the similarity….. This one started original but is oddly regressing.
Used to get a kick out of Blackgate’s TS.
They were of the opinion that Mag had some trick to get extra people onto maps.. As the whole outnumbered excuse wasn’t flying when they queued everything.
If you can’t fight your way out of spawn, what entitles you to an easy camp ninja?
Seems like trying to make a pizza while the pepperoni is still in cow form.
Uh, why is it annoying? You dont have to be anywhere near the tower, just get it to T1. It kind of gets there automatically, you know?
Not in the time limit. Not for a tower.
Losing the camp, or even a dolyak that supplies the tower kills it.
Not to mention if someone has to go or disconnects and there were only 3 of you to start. It’s failed out on me enough that I don’t bother even suggesting them.
Looked to me like they werent exactly overlayed most of the time. If so, and from what it looked like to me (I’m new) he was launching them through the trap barrier, into the ward wall, then chasing them into a much smaller space where they had to eat the hammer attacks or cross the trap barrier again voluntarily. Sometimes after being pulled through it once already.
I was actually surprised at how well he did with that weapon set. I’d never have used that combo outside of open world PvE.

ToF’s active damage has an internal cooldown of 3 seconds. While it IS possible to damage someone with the same traps active twice, the window is quite small and requires much more planning than the first, sometimes willing application.
This is untrue.
The ICD is 0.75 seconds and can be easily tested through HoM Golems.
You’re quite right.
I’m not sure where I got that number from… Maybe three quarters <,<
There is no point to it cos it means nothing……are you saying that people do this because they can?? Well still means nothing and nothing to be upset about.
I’m saying I bet you five dollars a memo will go out to staff or it will be addressed in a meeting soon because too many have complained at this point and it looks bad on the company. Turning off the tag is a simple fix to make everyone happy and change little.
I play this game, and I want it to be successful for my own selfish reasons. Something like this is damming to a games reputation. This is not the first time nor the first MMO to have had a community flare-up over it. It would be a shame to see something like this damage such a great creation when the fix is so simple.
It would be absolutely shameful if they caved. The anet guild members should be able to be just as proud of their guild affiliation as the rest of us.
Most of the industry disagrees with you on this.
Why don’t you just take the next step and claim Voice of all Humans already

There are times when I wish I could call target/mark things for myself and not have them removed by random person calling target on a downed low level he is throwing siege on.
