Guild Wars 2

Well so the “no cleanse for allies and only 3 for the caster” nerf stays? I could live with “no cleanse for allies” but only 3 conditions removed for yourself is intended?! There were so many bugreports about this and now we hear that it’s intended? The nerf itself is huge but please if you change stuff in the future please don’t forget to put it into the patchnotes. It’s really bad for us players to report seemingly broken stuff only to hear after 4 months that this was intended:(

I don’t think there is any kind of “love affair” between us and MS. Last night our zerg attacked both borders(miller just took longer cause they still had a lot of defense). And the night before we focused miller way more than you;)

Well, now we got the problem: In the past ther has been stuff like wrong droprates and stuff like the staff “Final Rest” not dropping and at frist A-net said everything was fine till they found out that there actually were some bugs. Guess we have no way to know for sureXD

Silent Shino.7239:

I have to say it’s completely typical, for once Aurora Glade have a colour advantage and there’s a bug in the green borderland which means we only have half the number :L and we are green 5 out of 7 weeks -.-

Is this bug actually real? I heard rumors about it but so far found no big topic about it or something.

Wow, this topic actually got a nice new direction O.O
And Columbo you can’t tell me that you haven’t heard of some of the high rank guys on our server O.o. Even I have and I rarely run with our Karmatrains. That said I’m kinda surprised that another [DP] member got a Gold title. I expected a [LNS] tag^^. Oh man forget what I’m saying. I know who is the second guy:D.

Wow looks like we(AM) got a new forum warrior…

Anyway i kinda disagree with most of Zord’s posts and think more like Rincewind. Also concerning our last matchups:

http://mos.millenium.org/servers/history/25

As oyu see most of that matchups ended with a placement for us that was to be expected.

Simonoly.4352:

What on earth happened to Abbadon’s night crew?! We used to get golem rushed constantly pre-season to the point of insanity and now there’s just…nothing.

It’s fun that AM and Gandara are very competitive at the moment though. Looks like the battle for 2nd place will be as interesting as the battle for 3rd

Actually we have more people than we had most of the time in ,last matchups but it seems like they are just enough to hold some points on EB and AM BL. I don’t know if your zerg at 4a.m.(GMT+2) is really still so big that you can easily hold most of your border for the most part(but to small to attack anything else because we rarelly see more than 3-4 Gandara on our border when it’s getting late) or if Deso is attacking us most of the time. When we took their t3 bay on our border somewhere between 3-4 a.m. with 16 people while they were attacking our last t2 tower and we went back to garrison they(they capped it to while we got bay but it was nearly wood anyway) rolled over us with 40+ people or something. Deso seems to have a really strong coverage again(we all knew that this would happen, right?) and we still have the curse of a national server: compared to international servers on our level we just don’t have a big coverage.

To this guy from [ART](or his guild):

I hope you managed to reach the end of the JP without problems. We were in that JP with 2 Zergs and the other commander and I kinda told our players to not attack you. It seems like it worked for the most part from what I can tell but I couldn’t see if you managed to get to the end. Still most avoided attacking you which kinda makes me happyXD(dat discipline).

I posted a similar topic in the suggestion.subforum so I agree with this.

Please move this message from “game messages” to “combatchat” in the chatlog.

My chat in WvW scrolls really fast because this message is filling it up very fast when i try to use skills which are on cooldown. Same for the “No line of sight” message.
It is kinda annoying and after a very long fight I actually couldn’t read a whisper that someone send to me at the start of the fight.

Had to shorten the topic titleIt becasue of the maximum length. So this is my problem:
It happened to me quite often now as a guild leader(or someone who got the rights to kick guild members): I try to join my party from an overflow(Tequatl fight) or I want to kick a guildmember from my group. But instead i accidently hit “Kick from Guild” becasue I’m either getting a bit lazy after clicking “Join” for over an hour to get into a map or because I’m in a hurry and just read “Kick from…” and hit the wrong option.

So my suggestion is:
Please add a confirmation window like this: Do you really want to kick <<Playername>> from your guild? Yes/No)

GUess I’ll have to agree:D

EDIT2: Not relevant

Well it would make sense to do something like this. I hope they do something like this. It would be quite stupid if my server(Abaddon) had to fight in gold league because some servers above us decided they want some easy wins in the upcoming season. Abaddon has been rank 11 for 19(NINETEEN) weeks now. This is the spot where we belong. This is the highest position we ever had and it is really stable. Overall we’ve been between rank 14 and 11 for the last 26 weeks. If we get into gold league it would be quite a fail.

Well it’s a guildgroup more or less. Guess you call that discipline.

Who are you trying trick here?XD Guilds stating in their stream that they’re trying to perform bad etc.
And less coverage then half of the silve rleague? You guys must be kiddingXD

So you guys are seriously trying to go for silver league? Not that i do really care but that’s kinda… ah well I just don’t say anything.

Haha. Yeah, our hills-golemrush was really nice. As the commander at that time i had to decide if we try to get our border back starting with the wood towers and garrison or if we go high risk and go hills first before it got a waypoint. We went for the high risk solution:D. That said: We had to abort the attack 2 times. During the first try someone hit the gate while we tried to kill the guard so we had to run away. Durin our second try we got spotted by some of your dolyak protectors. We then waited in our secret spott where the golems were until the dolayk arrived in hills and went for the gate. Was a really intense mission for us and we were really excited when we managed to cap the hill:D. Thx for the fight^

Also i want to thank everyone on our side who took part in that attack:D

Well there’s a reason we’re not that blobby i guess: We’re killing Tequatl(just did it). Seriously the Tequatlzergs look quite like WvW zergs if you compare guilds tagsXD

That garrison fight really sounds better in your story AmeliaXD. Fight was good but the fight from the last matchup was kinda better imho(were it was DAWN/TUP vs AM Randomzerg for 1 1/2 hours:D). Yesterday was still nice though.
That said we have low TS numbers since patch kinda. I joined wvw around the time hills dropped and we were around 30 in Homeland channel with another 40 players in EB Channel. number dropped quickly to a 20-30 homeland channel and raised a little bit in EB channel to a top of 50(these guys helped us defending garrison) but dropped quite fast again although we had queue on homeland for some time. Though during the last fight in garrison lordroom and right before that one we were not even close to a queues anymore and total TS number was around 50 in TS top(homeland and EB combined). Guess it’s a mixture of dragonpatch and lag problems cause of the bloodlust buff and the bloodlust buff itself that keeps our numbers kinda low. From what i’ve seen and heard most people don’t like that buff. But as i said in the beginning: It was a very nice fight but definately not our best organised defense(sry for that one:/). I also want to thank our commanders and players: we still did a good job:D.

On another note: we heard rumors that AG got some new transfers?:D Around 100-180 players or something. That’ll make silver league quite interesting if it’s true(and we belong into silver. There is no reason for us to be in gold).

EDIT: We know that TS problem too. Sometimes it just kicks people out and everyone rejoins quite fast. Some don’t get kicked. Others get it couple of time, etc. So no it’s nothing special:D.

From watching the cooldown timer ticking on Skill 1 while using it i see it quite often counting with numbers above 1 second(eg i see numbers like 1.7/1.5/1.3/1.8) and only every few shots the cooldown is really fast and counting below 1 second(i see numbers like 0.8/0.5/0.7). The tooltip say the recast should be 1 second.

Anyone else made that observation?

Since WXP were introduced i rarely play anything besides my maincharacter(necro). Esp. with things like defense against guards. The total time spend on other characters in wvw in total is less than 10 hours for me. There is just no good reason to play on an alt-char when you have a high ranked mainchar. And everytime i did play an alt in wvw i felt like i totally wasting my time and wxp on a worthless character. I have absolutely zero reason to play an alt anymore.

Eclipsiste.3251:

A little question for Abaddon players: what kind of sore losers build 6 siege engines in front of the opponent’s spawn at 6.30 AM on Sunday, just to do some cheap spawn kill?
Are you that afraid to fight us? I had much more positive memories of your fighting skills from previous matchups!

I’d guess that they were bored. But it doesn’t matter. Every Spawn has 3 different exits so just use them.

Eugenides.1274:

Can we all please stop acting like “our” server is the messiah server that doesn’t blob or take on uneven fights? Every match-up thread is the same thing and it’s getting tiring.

Every server blobs. Every server ganks people in unfair fights. WvW is always going to be unfair in one way or another, so save your breath.

^THIS

But as someone who has to listen to billions of things about “Blobbadon” for the last months i kinda doubt that this will ever happen… sadly.

dangerdoom.3862:

Maybe if you see 5 men chasing the tail of your blob, a small group (not everyone ofc) could peel off and fight back? That’s actualy what we are trying to do.. We are constantly looking for fights but you rather A: steamroll or B: let the tail die.

Ah well you wiped our whole ~6player Mapzerg tonight between Redlake and Lowlands
XD. I guess we call that a quite fair fight numberwise(though we didn’t really had a chance).

Matchup sounds interesting. Let’s see how it evolves!:D
First impression is nice but i we won’t have the overall coverage to fight for first place.
Anyway: GL & HF this week!:D

And a small(not so serious) note:
OMGOMGOMG! I just got blobbed 2v1 by 2 guys from Dius!
;)

Hiding behind invincible buff in vale is kinda lame… just saying. C’mon you guys are better than that! (Won’t name that guild here)

Yeah, no gift for me too although my character is 12 months old

Could say similar things about some of you guys earlier this evening…;)

We just had a nice fight on Gunnar BL between Bay and Garrison^^

Oh yes. So many taxes to pay tonight. Evon gonna be pleased!

Well we didn’t lose. Otherwise garrison would be blue now but it isn’t. Did you have the upper hand for quite some time? Yes! But you didn’t win.

Well, I guess you actually DO;)

Oh yes please fix it! It’s really quite annying. At some point i tried to guide a mortar shooting at enemies’ siege and i couldn’t see the mortarfire at all. This breaks wvw big time.

Well i hope all the AR guilds on AM-borderland had some fun last night. We definitely had a lot of fun with all these bags and fights^.^. Your try at our garrison was nice too.

socialdisorder.9684:

I hate flaming and QQ but this i just gotta say:
Abaddon LL guild u are the worst i have ever seen in my GW2 career.
3 of us vs 5 of u and u build a ballista? WTH were u thinking….
And still we wiped u…
I was standing there jumping/asking a 1v1 btw…

Lol I just said to my guildies: Hey, lets just throw a ballista they sure gonna write about that. So here we are as I expectedXD.

Anyway just to get some facts right:
- Our tag is [ILL]
- We were just having some fun running around and showing some parts of the map to our guildies who are kinda new to wvw. None of us saw you jumping btw. All we saw were some Deso-players fighting with us(2 Thiefs, some heavy Charr guy and you as an engi i guess. Perhaps someone else too in the beginning)
- We were 4 with all of us being build for zergplay and 2 of us(as mentioned above) being new to wvw(without complete armor and not used to play their builds and stuff)
- Swag
- Next time we’re placing a superior ballista;D

So much fun!:D Rly good Event

Cyril.1486:

Thought i would post this in here a lot of it is vs. the blob Abbadons Mouth in particular. It has full Sacrx The Machine Audio so earplugs are advised.

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

Was an honor to be wiped by you guys. Sadly I’m not in the video:/

Parthis.2091:

HAI ADAC.

Ok someone plz tell me the point of placing siege on dead enemy players of a guild X.x

There are ways to defend gates without siege on the walls;) So yeah tbh i still doubt you would have succeeded;) But we’ll never know:D

Well you did a nice job getting into outer and the stealthattack with golems was a nice idea. But tbh you weren’t close to get into inner by far. We still have lots of siege and we have our big raidevent-zerg for emergencies .;D

No we used our asura commander. We took him by his arms and legs and rammed the gate open with his head!D:

Da Nazgul isn’t playing on AM. He was just here for a weeks btw.
Anyway: No we don’t play against Elona or VIzu or RS or Baruch in this matchup. But you can’t just switch a serverorganisation/structure around everytime matchup. While we have some guilds running solo we, we still got a big amount of randoms/PUGs and we can’t just split them into “nice 20-30 players groups”. And we don’t want to exclude them from the fun so “not running with them at all” isn’t something we’re going to do. It’s not our fault that random-match-generation creates matcheups where servers with quite different wvw-population are mixed together.

EDIT:

You went trou the gate , you sure you didnt take it down first?
Or you just went through the gate?
Im getting confuzed here ….. -.-

Don’t be so nitpicking:/ Went through = open it the gate and go through the opened gate.

Well the fact is: Server with hihger ranking got better coordinated blobs and they can field them quite often while we only get “full borderland blob” during reset or special raidevents.

EDIT:
We still had a mesmer in there and went through the northern inner gate after he ported us inside.

Mesmers… heard they got portals.

Well, like i said: The problems we had were way worse than any normal skilllag when big blobs meet. And we didn’t even had big blobs on some maps. It seems to be gone for now but we aren’t sure.

multivira.7925:

I wouldn’t blame blobbadon for the server crashes, they are however the first time for at least a week that I’ve had skill lag. People teleporting around and being unable to swap weapons or eat food. Prepare for a week of lots of complaints blobaddon.

Yeah it’s the first time for us too. We had bigger fights yesterday than any fight tonight an AM BL so far and it wasn’t lagging like kitten.

Yeah. But i guess we can all agree that at least on AM borderland these problems don’t have anything to do with zergsize. Our PUG-commander has a maximum of 30 people with him and DP got around 30-40 people split up. So it has to be something else.

Could you both please stay on topic? This is NOT blob related as we don’t even have any blob on AM atm. max. 30 guys with PUG commander and DP guild with 30-40 both running seperated. Still we have massiv problems.
