is it always a zerg?

I AM?
Theres lots of skill in zerging, right?
You feel so accomplished after beating on a door then zerging a keeplord.

Or, the real players, are the ones in raiding parties — and youre just ignorant because youre stuck in zerg mode because you cant hack it in small groups and need the giant ball to mask your lack of pvp skill.

Its cool, though. We need the zerg as much as they need the raiders.

Stop complaining about a queue and come to a empty server!

That sucks
See, thats what i DONT want. They need to (IMO) let overflow players/plyers in Queue waiting into servers like that to play.

I know while im waiting, id love to join a random server to help out., I doubt id even accept the Queue when it popped to go back to mine :p

…. Youre obviously not on a top-tier server.

The fun part is having all t he working parts of a machine working flawlessly. Youll get kills, far more rewarding ones, when in a raiding party. 5v5, 10v10, 2v2…etc. Theyre far, far better than sitting in a zerg spamming fire from the skies screaming YESSSSSSSS I AIDED IN A KILL BROS GG 150 EXP F*** YEA!!!#!#!# ALL MEEE!!!

Thats not fun for most people. If you think that is, cool, youll sit at the keeps shooting doors, pretending youre good at the game, and really doing nothing but Army vs Door then bullrush the lord and GG it with aoe.

The real skill/fights are off at the supply routes, etc.

Also, you realize, if you lose… You dont get orbs, right? Nor honor/glory.

Which class is best suited for WvW?

im going to say NOT guardian if you want to be in the zerg.
Yes, they have wubwub from staff.. But after that? Really nothing.
Their heals are lackluster, ranged DPS is slow and pitiful… So youre basically regulated to manning the machines and doing shouts/placing walls.

However, they are GODS at raiding.

Amode the bottom 3 servers right now are Devona’s Rest, Northern Shiverpeaks, and Kaineng.

from best of the worst, to the worst of the worst.

And malpractice, its a self fulfilling prophecy. We cant win matches without people, but people dont want to switch because they will have to lose matches.

Truth, However, Organization is what wins in the end, IMO.
And without that, numbers wont matter.

Ill basically prob look for a decent server with great organization (keep pugs moving/active/with something to do, etc)

Yes there is. Supply lines are critical to defending a keep. Without siege to defend, and supply to repair with — the keep falls.

Thats one example.
There are MANY more.

You just need to WANT to play with your friends, and do things that help. Taking out power nodes in the water. Putting up swords on the map to shift enemy movements/attention. It all matters in the end.

Kaineng has never been second place.

Its a clear loser. Just look at the matchup its in right now, 3rd place by more than double the points.

Hey don’t worry, at the rate we’re going we’ll be with you shortly. We had our second exodus over the past 7 days.

lol… at hedge we frequently beat the other 2 servers by their score combined :/
And they have an alliance.

I want to transfer off, tbh, since the Q time takes a while. But at the same time, i dont want to lose every single match.
So its hard.

Share your Guardian builds!

Thats what i run in pvp.
Gear is of the undead, and the accessory is the vitality/condition/power (iirc)

Greatsword — No explanation needed.
Sword and board — #2) Used to chase, or jump to an allie being stomped (followed with a #5)

  1. For chasing/killing/pressuring from a range when your GS #4/5 are down.
  2. SOOOOOOOO useful. This lets you interrupt people, hold a position, stop a cap, save an ally — the uses here are endless.

The trait for 90 toughness when using a shield helps a ton, i find, since i rez with shield up etc.

Basically you use meditations to stay alive and stay in the fray where you need to be. Your #8 skill helps maintain dmg and keep the conditions down (coupled with the signet passive. Ive even used the traight for another condition removal every 10s)

I use #9 to keep myself fresh from huge condition hitters.

The meditation heal trait heals for about 1400hp. Signet for like…. 8500. My hp is at 18k, so i stay really high up.. Rolls also heal for about 370.

If you want to be REALLY tanky, put on the aegis heals on removal instead of relation. It heals for about 600 hp, and in a standard fight (say a min) youll get 4 procs at least. 1 from initial, 1 from 40 sec later. 1 from your 5pts into valor, and lastly 1 for when u activate courage. Thats another 2400 hp, for free.

5 points into radiance/virtues due to how good the passive is. Blinding enemies is amazing, it truely helps survive. And getting free buffs from your clutch virtues is just great at relieving pressure.

You dont have to go in the zerg. Theres plenty of other objectives to take.
But you will NEED zergs to take castles/keeps. Do you really expect 10 people to take down a door with repairers?

Server alliances ruins WvW

Its fine.
Im from Hedge, we havent lost a SINGLE wvwvw yet.
#2-4 keeps changing between 3 servers, so we fight the same 3 over and over.
They have an alliance against us, and we still win every day.

Maybe u guys need to organize better.
