New WvW tournament?

in WvW

1. Past tournaments decreased PERMANENTLY the WvW populations after they ended.

2. But if the players REALLY, REALLY want another tournament, Anet will have another.

Do you still want another tournament?

They would need to work on balance and other things first. But I really enjoyed the tournaments. But I am not holding my breath lol.

Would be nice. But I doubt it.

I would pass atm. Unless you like just PvE. Currently WvW and PvP are in bad shape. Ultimately it is up to you. But imo it is not worth it atm.

Super easy fight for me. Did not go down once. Did it with DH and Necro.

This is probably true, but it isn’t particularly helpful: unless you can share why it was easy, or provide education to people who are not at the same skill level as you, then all it does is mock someone who doesn’t have the same level of skill — for whatever reason — as you do.

Instead, either focus on explaining how to improve the ability to complete the fight, or just stay quiet.

No need to be hostile my friend! I was not putting anyone down or shaming anyone. Just sharing my experience.

All you have to do is dodge at the right time, and use your skills wisely. I mean it is just a dance, and all you have to do is pay attention. Not sure what else I can tell you. Maybe my massive amounts of time playing WvW helped me?

It’s PvE which is generally very easy. At least for me….

Do you use infused rings and backpack?

It gives a decent boost. Not a ton mind you, but every bit helps imo.

I would move from FA if I were you. It’s getting ugly atm. Most groups have no clue what they want/need to do anymore. Just my two cents.

Some of the best fights I have been involved in are on the DBL. I realize some people hate running back to the group, but really if you know the shortcuts it is no big deal. Just watch your back!

Only Siege Should Damage Walls/Doors

in WvW

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

WvW is having issues with the damage creep.

Even tier3 doors and walls can’t prevent a determined group from standing in a safe-spot and using weapon skills to destroy a door.

This is a problem because THERE IS NO COUNTERPLAY.

There are many ways this issue can be solved. One solution might be to redesign every objective so that it is much easier to hit people using siege without the siege being killed by Meteor Shower.

The solution I propose is to have only siege damage the doors and walls. This way we can play the siege/countersiege game instead of having to endure balling up target-cap exploits.

Just a thought. You could use a catapult or treb if the are at the door???

Which LS 3 Map Do YOU like the best?

in Living World

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

I really do not like any of them per say. The gameplay is fairly boring to me. But if I were forced to pick one it would be Draconis Mons. And there are only two reasons for that. I like the Primordial harvesting, and the Oakheart Essence.

Other than that it is not that appealing to me.

Honestly it rarely happens to me. Once in a blue moon I will get a salty person whispering me. But most of the time it is GG good fight in the whisper.

Also you do not need the newest mastery to complete the map. I did not get my new mastery until I finished mapping it. Where there is a will there is a way.

New Content for WvW? Any Ideas?

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

Personally I have given up on asking Anet for new stuff. They will eventually release new stuff, but usually it is not what Veterans of the mists would like. So I am just gonna wait and see. Hopefully the next xpac will have some decent WvW stuff. Otherwise on to a new game.

They would have to totally redo this map then. I could see non combat ground mounts. But flying will probably never happen.

I give it a D! I guess I was expecting something else! Something different. But (and maybe it is just me) it seems like you just are not even trying to come up with a good story/map? Maybe next time WOW us with something completely different. All I am seeing is more of the same old stuff. And TBH it is very boring and grindy.

And not one Dev has even said anything about this post. So sad! I wish there were hope in the future. But atm it sure seems bleak….

I realize it is their policy to not talk about things they are working on as they “do not want to disappoint us”. But I would rather know they are actually working on something, so we know that WvW is not being completely neglected as it seems to be atm.

Legendary Armor and WvW [Merged]

Malerian.8435

The problem with Legendary Armor only being available in Raids is population. We only have so much time to play each week. Spending hours per week, for almost 4 months, is too long away from WvW. It’s diluting the already dwindling player base even further. Dev’s should be encouraging people to play WvW and not incentivizing players to play PvE.

We need Dev’s who’ll rally the kitten up and push for us!

Could not agree more!!! 100% on this my friend!!!

NP navigating it. Just very uninteresting is all. It seems all they really did was squish a few maps together, made a few minor changes and released it so there would be “new” content….

How would you rank the new maps so far?

in Living World

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

It feels like they copy and pasted 2-3 of the last maps and called it new lol. Very minor differences of course, but all in all I give it a 3 out of 10. Just feels(and I could be very wrong) like they did not even try hard on this one. Just pushing content out fast to say there is something new.

NO! This is a terrible idea! Yest it would be fun! But implementing it would mean they would have to re-do the whole map. And non HoT players would be at a huge disadvantage as well. I have HoT myself, but I have good friends who do not. And this would be very unfair to them.

WvW Update [Fan made]

This post = More loot, more XP, nerf things lemmings hate.

Rewards are nice but they don’t fix or even improve WvW. The players who hold the mode together aren’t going to stick around for more greens and blues.

Thing is. All this stuff is easy to implement. Which was the main goal here.
Sure , its not what will safe WvW , but getting something is better then getting nothing.

What do you want to see?

Look. I like your ideas. But let’ snot let Anet get sidetracked here. It is my personal opinion that they should be working on the bigger issues. Sure it might be easy to implement these changes as you say. But it then decreases the chances of the bigger issues being resolved. Just my two cents for what it is worth.

How about bring back the way dungeons use to work? Use to be a great way to make some gold and have fun doing it. Now since you have changed the gold factor is is just not worth doing. That is unless you want Achievements or titles.

What is YOUR idea for a "Perfect" WvWvW?

in WvW

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

No such thing as perfect as everyone has their own ideas. Thus you will never have perfect. My main issues are imbalance and Anet messing with Glicko. Both need fixing badly. Then we can wok on other underlying issues, such as night time capping and such.

Not a fan at all of the HoT maps or Story Line. But I never had any issues soloing the Story Line. Not to be rude but if you are dying a lot in the LS you are doing it wrong. So easy it is ridiculous.

Small group vs zerg

in WvW

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

Yes it can be done. My small group does it all the time. It’s all about group comp, and knowing whom you need to take down first. Get the back line casters and healers, and 9 time out of 10 your gonna wipe that big group. Condi is just a crutch that makes people feel safe to run. If you know how to fight it, it is a minor annoyance. If yo do not know how then you will die quickly.

Change the scoring, no more PvD

I guess everyone has a different opinion on this. Mine is that I am in WvW for the fights. Not the rewards, not anything else. I am in it for fights. So when a group runs form you, I consider that cowardliness .

I agree with you %100. Hence why I don’t WvW much anymore here in GW2. And RvRs in another MMO that basic mechanics supports fighting over running away and PvDing.

Yes the community does need to change it’s behavior. But lets be honest here. Most will not change their behavior unless ANet intervenes. With game mode changing mechanics, that heavily pushes players to want to fight. Instead of again running away and PvDing.

But again lets be honest the amount of players that want decent fights in GW2. Are smaller then the current PvP elite community. So I have little to nearly no hope that ANet, will do anything to push for meaningful fights in GW2. Players just want a cheap ego boost here. And GW2 delivers on that the best out of any MMORPG on the market. But I still sometimes dream from afar.

I think ( I may be wrong here but I doubt it ) a lot of players are running what they now call the “Meta” (complete crap builds for the most part imho) and a lot of their play style is determined by the monkey see monkey do factors. It must start with the person leading the group. Maybe that individual has no clue how to fight so they just run? But WvW has gotten a bit ridiculous as of late with the newest players coming in. It is getting harder and harder to have a good open field fight. Sad but true.

This map grew on me. I very much disliked it at first. But now I quite enjoy it. As with every map it has it’s good and bad things. But all in all I like it. Especially since they made it a bit easier to travel around now.

how about WvW players feeling they are forced to do PVE map completion to be able to craft legendary ?

Exactly. I had do do map completion again to make another legendary! I very much dislike PvE as I find it very boring. So it goes both ways. What Anet is trying to do is make sure you have played in every aspect of the game to get certain content.

I see why they do it. But I do wish you could just get everything done in the part of the game you most enjoy. Perhaps there will be a compromise someday.

Reminder about Forum Etiquette

Posted by: Malerian.8435

Malerian.8435

So I have read through most of this. And even though I agree with most of you on the way you would like Anet to communicate, I disagree with the way your calling them out.

They have repeatedly informed everyone of how they intend to communicate! You must (no matter how unnerving it is sometimes) accept their terms, or simply move on. Those are your options atm as I see it.

I now that will not make me Mr. popular, but that is ok too. These “devs” are human too. And they do not need to respond to everything you think is wrong with WvW. Maybe someday they will change their policies, and hold a more open communication line with their customers! Let you know about what all they are planning! But until then you need to respect their way of communicating to us.
