Ah well…. ^^

5.33: was a great fight at bay. Also great to see how you guys reacted at the ninja cap :P
Not long anymore ‘till reset. Best week I’ve had up ’till now rly. Cheers

Hahaha yeah, we were all surprised at that cap. ^^ That’s what I love about RiOT – even when things go awry, nobody cares and we are still having a blast.

I wanted to compile all the fights we had at bay yesterday (spanning from 20:00 to 22:30 on my clock), but it was already too late when I d/c and my boss is not exactly pleased with my late arrivals. xD

Wow, you guys managed to do 3 pages in less than 2 days. I should stop taking breaks from the forums, reading through all of this was a pain.

Anyway, thanks to RoF for the fights in RoF Bay, and to FIRE for helping us take it. ^^ It was loads of fun attacking and defending it. The way we lost it, though, was one of those WTH moments – the wall spawned directly in front of my face and it took me some time to realize the keep had actually been capped lol.

Ah well…. ^^

There’s a bug in WvW at Sunnyhill tower (and possibly even Longview and Woodhaven, although I’m not sure about those). When you wield a fiery greatsword and use skill number 3 (or 4, not sure) on the gate, you get teleported inside the tower even though the gate is still at full hp.

I’ve also heard on TS that other classes are able to do that as well, although I’m not sure which weapons they have to use. Please fix it before someone gets banned for all the wrong reasons.

nagymbear.5280:

What I was sad to see is a d/d ele inside Sunny before gate went down in RoF BL. Let’s keep these things out of wvw shall we? No ressing through the door, and no glithcing inside towers/keeps pls.

That D/D ele was me. I was wielding a fiery greatsword and somehow got through the gate with skill number 3. Apparently that’s a well known glitch on that gate and since it was the first time I was using the FGS on that particular tower, I wasn’t aware of that.

If you watched closely, I went up the stairs and jumped off the wall into the open without damaging anyone, despite ppl attacking me (obv). I’m sorry for what happened, I didn’t know there was a glitch there and it was in no way intentional.

edit: or was it skill number 4….. dunno.

Well, as far as yesterday goes, some of us did join one massive blob in EB, nobody can deny that (my PC went nuts even when we attacked the veteran oakheart). It wasn’t a guild event, nor was it a scheduled community event; it just happened. As far as the guild goes, we were waiting for our guild event to start and because it was delayed for an hour due to our commander’s absence, the ones who were already in EB just wanted to have some fun.

It was a nice raid after that. VcY decided to train our community in WvW a bit and I’m just glad they are back in the game.

I’m still stomped why Anet doesn’t just ban him. At least temporarily, it’s more than obvious that he’s ruining the game for a lot of people. He’s been reported so many times already that I’m surprised their server hasn’t crashed yet lol.

Blue left???? Geez, finally. Do you know where to by any chance?

Sienna’s legit. I’ve watched some of his movies and was just astounded at his determination. I would’ve given up after 5 minutes or so. ^^

Now if only they made a tablet that would run GW2…. :-(

Pyranna.2054:

Please dont take the QQing of a few as a reflection of our whole server, alot of us are having a blast this week

I’m not, I was just clarifying for those who think GH is being focused on.

Steelo.4597:

“This is WvW and if anyone of us meets Miller’s head-on, we’re not exactly gonna exchange greeting cards…”

i laughed at this thinking of EB last night… when RoS were taking veloka while millers were trying our north keep door – merely 30 feet from each other. that was somewhere around the 3 hours where you failed to take our keep despite doubleteaming and throwing everything at us. 1 treb to rule them all.

I wasn’t there, so can’t comment.

Hyung.6140:

Liquid Storm.8097:

Oh please GH, like you didn’t focus us or used Miller’s presence in our BL to take our keeps. Just remember Tuesday when Miller’s launched a full assault on Hills with golems and RiOT, VcY, FRS, DEX, PG and practically anyone on RoS at that time had to port in to fend them off. And what did you do in the meantime? You took our fully upgraded garrison with your own golems and placed a gazillion ACs in there.

And now you are QQing about being focused? Really guys? This is WvW and if anyone of us meets Miller’s head-on, we’re not exactly gonna exchange greeting cards…

One person wrote one post bemoaning the current state of the map. Another person from GH (me, in fact) disagreed and said what was happening is fine. It’s not exactly an orchestrated server-wide QQ campaign :p

Have fun fighting whoever you’re fighting right now

We are, thank you.

As a former player of FoW who transfered to RoS during the free transfer period at the end of March, I fully agree with Sin. In reality you have two options – either sit and wait or transfer; rebuilding the WvW community on either FoW or Vabbi is impossible unless you get some transfers in, which is highly unlikely at this point.

Getting 600 gems shouldn’t be that hard to get, considering 100 gems are about 3g 11 silver on average; it would take you about 18-19 gold altogether. Just transfer to another med populated server and enjoy playing WvW the way it was meant to be played, with an active community, teamwork and loads of fun hours.

You could all just buy gems and transfer like everyone else did. I know it’s hard to leave a server you’ve been on for months, but it’s either that or sit, wait and get crushed week after week until Anet does something about it. Which, apparently, isn’t gonna be anytime soon.

Whatever you say pumpkin. :*

Steelo.4597:

bullkitten, stikko, do you even believe yourself? if millers was dangerous in morning they wouldnt sit on their boderland and let you cap ours without doing anything whatsoever, they would either push our bl aswell or push yours… not many other options assuming they dont like to play cards in their garrison lords room. now because of this kitten we have to push your borderland again in the evening to not come out 3rd when we could be in millers testing their power. just boring…

lolololol

And you complain about others being two-faced.

Steelo.4597:

Try logic, Noss. Why should i have to be not angry? Just because i said FRS were angry with gunnars? Makes sense? No.

Um… yes?

Well we obviously don’t stand a chance against Miller’s numbers and we definitely do not like to participate in siege wars (how on earth can some people enjoy camping in towers and manning ACs 24/7 is beyond me), but some fights have been sort of fun. At least neither server’s zergs of 50+ run away from a group of 20 people like they did on Fort Ranik [FR] last week, that was just… lame.

Lert.6287:

It isn’t, but killing 7-8 guys trying to do the same from opposite server is.

With a thief fending off upscaled foes? Yawn.

Do you see any thief of GH in that picture? Yeh, neither do I.
That’s just a target, but I do believe there were some of yours as well.

Keep your eyes open and skill up for next time.

All I see in that picture is an upscaled FRS fellow and someone in chat saying about killing 7-8 pugs. Being a D/D ele myself, I can kill several upscaled enemies too with little to no effort, especially if they’re wearing light armor. Bragging here makes no sense since you have a huge advantage over that player from the start.

Lert.6287:

Just checked the scores:

198 968 – Underworld
199 086 – Ruins of Surmia
198 520 – Fort Ranik

Score-wise our tier is the tightest one in the entire EU. Nice job guys, I can’t wait to get back from work and jump straight into WvW!! ^^

Bloodstealer.5978:

Goota say I am hopin g RoS and UW are matched up again this week I have had a real blast with you guys.. the chicken bloober FR can go play elsewhere, they are no fun and lack anything other than blob – AC drench – run.

Agreed.

It was a nice wedding in SM yesterday btw. ^^ Had everything – the ceremony, wedding crashers at south and north gates, and a nice party where all guests were properly entertained with lots of action and loot bags. :P

Enocka.7421:

You are joking right all ive seen from Ros this week so far is huge zergs and people exploiting ac

You sure you’re fighting RoS mate? Or have you mistaken us for FR?

Cookies? I thought we agreed on cake!

Amshaa.7492:

18:00 GMT+1
FR BL

On the road to Hills north gate, 2 groups (or so, 10-12) of almighty RiOT got stomped by 2 groups (or so, 10-13) of Ranik’s Pugs. No siege assist, no guild group… I guess that might have been too much of challenge atm.
Can’t wait to see it in your next video

(if you can’t bring peace to the forum war then just spit some oil on the fire) :P

Um… I hate to break your bubble but at 18:00 GMT+1 some of us were still at work. Or on the way home at least. And FR without siege?? Riiiight…

Anyway, it was wild in the RoS BL tonight. Can’t say I enjoyed lagwars2, but it made me giggle to see FR, despite their huge annoying effort and a gazillion arrow carts on outer walls, couldn’t cap Bay due to the application of the server patch. Nice timing Anet, I think RoS nearly died of laughter. ^^

Like a walk in the park.

Oh, pardon my ignorance then. ^^

Enis, a blob is a huge group of 50+ people. It doesn’t matter if it consists of only one guild or 50 guilds, it’s still a blob. And yes, FR in general is blobbing like mad.

Enis.4057:

There is a gap between words and actions. It seems that the FIRE is fearing our storm. You got a big group, we got a guild group, you flee …. ok very nice, but don’t say we’re the runners

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFAVbwDnkuU

…I didn’t see any fleeing on this vid?

Too bad I was already asleep when FR was capped. ^^ I should quit my job lol.

Anyway, RoS started getting transfers in when we had Arborstone as our opponent (if I remember correctly). I wasn’t in RiOT at that time and I do remember Arbor always outnumbered us heavily. After we got some transfers, things stabilized a bit.

ich.7086:

The problem in FR is that most of our people in zerg are PU that are afraid of dying (i know it’s weird) and prefer the calm of a fortified tower over the glorious sound of battle (maybe a backfire of fighting too much german serveur which are very meh on open field from my point of view) but guilds like aZm, BL ,GROU or RDT never fear a good fight. Set apart PU zerg and guild zerg and you will find what you seek.

In my knowlegde no guilds in FR encourages cheating and we are trying to find a solution against our cheaters. We (at least UFR alliance on FR) apologize for that unacceptable behavior.

Apart from these problems, the last night was very fun and the new matchup system is very refreshing. Special mention to GuM thiefs, i love you guys.

They’re afraid of dying in a PC game…… o.O? Wow. Is this the case on all French servers? Cause when we had Arborstone a couple of weeks back, they were also reluctant to engage in open field warfare unless they outmanned us like 5:1. And even then they all scattered after you downed about 5 of them.

Amshaa.7492:

Liquid Storm.8097:

Fighting UW is fun. Fighting FR is not. Constant blobbing on every BL …..

Actually, the whole evening (and night) each and every BL was a free-to-go on FR server. No queue. So, imho, you should enjoy your time and battles until you get to face a german server

Anyway, it’s all about biased points of view. As a reminder, you may wisely think about how you looked like tonight taking longview on FR BL (with 4 trebs and acs) [RiOT] + [VcY] + followers…. A blob, yes, you guessed right :P

Oh I don’t mind blobbing, it’s WvW after all. I just don’t understand why, just WHY, do you people run back into the nearest tower or keep and man ACs when you outman us heavily anyway. Yes, we faced German servers in the past, they blobbed like hell as well, but at least they had the guts to face us in open field.

And about Longview, your group was 3 times the size of ours, we had 3 trebs and 1 AC, and still you were too chicken to face us. I just hope this matchup ends quickly, I’m getting really tired of your constant running away.

Fighting UW is fun. Fighting FR is not. Constant blobbing on every BL and the very second they see us coming (outmanned at least 3:1 btw), they quickly run to the nearest tower with 5+ ACs up. Really guys…? Plus it’s funny and kinda weird to see most FR guys in 1v1 fights when they rotate the camera view with their A and D keys instead of the mouse lol. In all these months of playing WvW, I have never ever EVER seen anyone do that.

WvW truly is just about numbers. Considering FR is leading by a massive amount of points, that just proves it.

Fights for Stonemist are already bad enough in terms of lag. We don’t need nor want additional latency because of the merger.

Yorric Hunt.8214:

Also kinda surprised RiOT are claiming they only ever run with 2-3 pugs. Is this a typo and you mean 2-3 pug zergs?

Please read this again:

Liquid Storm.8097:

Next time you meet us, please take a closer look. It’s mainly RiOT with maybe 3 or 4 people from other guilds, definitely not more, unless there’s a RiOT commander leading pugs. I’m not judging you for your server event, nor am I complaining or QQing. Just don’t accuse us of something we don’t do.

Cradorell.3941:

Very Very dissappointed that Cryhavoc, PRXM and MARA needed to blob to wipe RiOT! No respect for you guys now :/

Ah leave them. We were wiping them the whole week anyway.

Yorric Hunt.8214:

Sarcasm aside RiOT are a decent open field guild but ive seen a RiOT only group once since our matches have been going. You guys are always hand in hand with VcY and Dex so please understand why this happened to tonight and how we have felt with you doing it constantly.

Intensity.8964:

Just like you did over my 7-0 comment? Easy, p.s. Zim never commanded FURY. Oh, and he got kicked for being a knob.

At this point I would like to express my utmost gratitude to FURY for kicking Zim out. RoS and RiOT are very pleased to have him with us.

Luna.9640:

Liquid Storm.8097:

And be without WvW for weeks? Rather not.

So you think that Anet cannot fix this for weeks ? :O

If I answer that, I’ll get a perma ban. :P

And be without WvW for weeks? Rather not.

And of course they’re gonna start deleting these topics.

I’m still speechless here. I mean… infusion upgrades for 5 laurels and an additional 125 BoH for an extra 1 whole percent of damage to GUARDS. TO FRIGGIN NPCs in a PvP environment.

Oh….. god……

That fight was epic. ^^ Could do with a little less skill/keyboard lag, but what else can you expect near SM anyway…?

Oh yeah, and kudos to Zim, really awesome commanding there!

Yup, happening constantly to me as well. I have to restart the client X number of times for the guild roster to appear.

I always decline.

….you guys do realize this is a computer game, right? That even if you should, by some miracle, solo an entire group of 60+ players, nobody will give a kitten ? If you’re making money off streaming, I can see the point in bragging and spreading the word, but other than that, these brag wars just seem stupid.

DanyK.3842:

RiOT being outmanned? Pff you guys turned around from an objective with your 30ish blob to chase the 6 of us down… outammed for sure Hope we all dropped you exotics so it was worth the turn. Also /respect to the guys who were jumping on us, I know it was a bad play from us not being able to put up a good fight 6v30 but we’re just that bad
Shoutout to PG guild who now learned why they shouldn’t chase us even if they outman us, we were looking for you guys on that border again after the fights but seemed you disappeared. Anyway BCry will be up for GvG any day with 6-ish people usually. You can bring more if you want we don’t really care just want to have fights :P

Where on earth did you see 30 people with RiOT? We were outmanned constantly for about 3 hours on that borderland and had no more than 15 people, and no, not even the +20% MF didn’t yield any exotics from you. Considering the big words aimed towards PG, you shouldn’t have had any problems wiping us with your guild of 6 uber skillz0r players.

It always makes me giggle when I read people bragging and QQing in the same post lol.

Those, my friend, are all game bugs. Yesterday’s server shutdown kicked everyone out and the guild bug you’re experiencing today is something most of us are having as well.

I temporarily fixed this issue by restarting the client (twice). For a perma fix, just wait for anet to do something about it.

Wow. They actually removed the JP from EB queue. I’m impressed.

DevonCarver.5370:

Kaleden.9386:

Outfitter? You mean the NPCs selling PVP weapons/armor? If so, did you check just south of the home-point spawn location on Red BL – they were the last time I saw them (this was on Sanctum of Rall’s borderlands a few weeks ago).

I do wish banks were more accessible in WvW, but those are one of the few useful perks from upgrading personnel at a Keep. That said, IIRC, the banks were removed because people were queuing up for WvW just to access their bank, causing longer queue times.

That’s also what was the impetus for removing the crafting stations. The more time people spend in the maps not playing WvW, the longer the queues are.

As much as I can understand your reason behind the removal of NPCs, seeing how the jumping puzzles take up WAY more space than the crafting tables, don’t you think the fixing of JPs need to be prioritized? After I read about this change, I facepalmed.

Imagine you need 45+ minutes to get into EB, you start battling for Stonemist and then someone starts asking for mesmers in JP. I don’t usually get angry at games but this makes my blood boil. Not to mention the skill lag is unbearable, but that’s another issue (that needs to be prioritized as well).

Because if Anet starts focusing on making it hard for larger groups to play and favourizing smaller, well organized ones, it doesn’t take a genius to figure out what will happen to WvW. Guilds will enter WvW and dismiss anyone who’s not in their guild (pugs and random players who are not in an organized guild).

Edit: although I do think they should add a GvG mode to the game, that way everyone wins.

just build an arrow cart

can you stop posting the same dumb message in every thread now ? if you have something constructive to say about arrow carts,Use that thread. https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Arrowcarts-merged/page/32#post1953768

Actually literally every problem in this game now can be solved by building an arrow cart so I think his posts are perfectly valid.

He is trolling the forum with that message.Imo being immature doesnt help to solve a problem,being constructive and laying out your problem with the current Arrowcart buff instead of acting like a . . . might actually get you somewhere.

Maybe in real life. Here it’s just a matter of spamming like a maniac until they fix the broken fix.
