I hope AA/TL back up their words. They claim they haven’t really been playing WvWvW and instead powerleveling people to 80 for the 1 week battles.. Hopefully they show up to play this week.
If ET gets matched against HoD and SB and ET comes out ahead of them both, then all that talk AA/TL has done was actually truth and not excuses.
The major guilds in ET aren’t even really playing at the moment. They’re either running people to Orr or doing zerg bombs on keeps to power level characters to 80 in preparation for the new week long rounds. I wouldn’t get too used to thumping your chest about beating the lowest population server in the game when their primary force isn’t even participating.
TL and Ruin are the majority of players I see in WvWvW, unless there is some other major WvWvW guild I don’t know about that is on ET.
Let’s get real. Henge Does not need to ally with any server. The notion is just silly….the server has dominated nearly every matchup, and the accusations are ludicrous.
/thread.
HoD has dominated because they have a great overnight crew. That’s the pretty much the main reason. And hey.. There is nothing wrong with that, it’s part of the game and will be the reason HoD will remain on top for awhile. Until a server that can get a good enough overnight force to compete with HoD’s overnight force, they’ll remain on top. Unless 2 servers gang up on HoD from the start. Although that isn’t really needed as ET has proved that they have a much better day force then HoD.

can someone confirm that has a good i5….whats your fps with 60+ onscreen?
Mine drops from 60FPS to about 30FPS when there are 60+ people on the screen. Sure, it gets laggy, but still playable.
This is what happens when your server has a horrible over night force.
in WvW

Hopefully this changes for ET come the week long battles.
So when I load the game it this is what happens.
First time it will say I have 59% map completion.
Second time it will say I have 80% map completion.
Then it will say I have 64% map completion.
And so forth.. Not a serious bug, but still a bug.
The shame in all this is the wvwvw is awsome and played as intended is a masterful experience but when you cross-realm to cheese the numbers you are taking the skill out of the game and exploits kill games.
I don’t know how true these rumors are, but it’s said some servers will actually send people to other servers they are facing just so they can get into WvWvW and prevent people from getting in.
It’s also said that some servers actually send people to “sit in” on their enemy public TS/vent to listen in on their strats..
Not saying ET doesn’t do this either, I don’t know. I’m willing to bet at least a few people from each of the top 6 servers do this.
Lol Can it really be taken seriously we have players from henge flying around the maps shooting through floors and walls. We have a huge rendering issue where you cant even see the other factions(faction if henge is in the match) combat consists of aoe there i have a feeling thats the spot. Not that this is always the case but im sure you guys feel me.
I have never seen people flying around personal, but I have seen screen shots. I have seen people attack Keep Lords from the floor below him.. And the rendering issue I agree needs to be fixed.
This has only been documented to happen on Gates of Madness. I dont know why he’s transferring it over to HoD.
I think he is saying WvWvW in general.
All this drama is going to blow up someday and we will witness the fall of these servers
There is nothing wrong with trash talking amongst servers. Although, if any server alliance will implode, I honestly think it would be AA.
Stormbluff Isle has easily earned recognition from multiple guilds and players on HoD. They have a very scary force in War Machine (WM), EviL, and SiN. Underestimating them is not a good idea.
This is the truth. Theyve done better than ET and JQ in recent days. Theyve improved a lot. and war machine is a beast at night.
I will admit that ET has been slacking the past couple of days. However, ET does belong in the top 3 as of right now we are destroying BG and SoS. We literally have the entire WvWvW maps owned within the first hour. (Not sure how it looks right now though, I’m in bed) However, I think we will come back in full force once the 1 week battles start. Like I said, we have a VERY strong day time force, even better then HoD I think because we come out ahead of HoD and the third server. It isn’t until night time that we fall behind because of our fail night time force.
I’ve only seen one match-up where ET was ahead of HoD. The result was that ET still lost.
If ET deserved to be in the top 3, I’m sure they would be. However: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Current-world-rankings/first#post82393
I’m not saying ET isn’t competition. There are always good fights when ET is on the field against HoD.
We lost that match by 100 points, maybe even less. Since then ET has been slacking off for whatever reason, I don’t know. I fully admit we have been sucking the past couple days. My only guess is that AA/TL are bored with the 24/hr matches.. We shall see how things go this next week.
I think if any server can knock of HoD, it’s ET. No offence to the other servers.

you slacked, you lost your place. now if you believe you deserve to be in the top three again fight for it back
We are fighting back, we should be matched against HoD and whoever comes in second between SB and JQ for the first 1 week match.. Unless ArenaNet keeps us with the 5th and 6th ranked server.. Then it just wouldn’t be fun because we would just stomp them. Like I said, when I logged off tonight, we had 565+ potential points to BGs 80+ points and SoS 90+ points.

@Piccolo – Where is the open admission from HoD that they were working with someone to take ET down? I’m assuming this is the match that HoD won by 1k points? The one where Jade Quarry was given multiple opportunities by ET to capture Stonemist?
@Tarinis – What bug are you speaking of? Is there a link you can post that provides details for the bug? Or are you talking about HoD players relentlessly trying to enter the Wv3 queue to resume their fight, which is not a bug?
@Thesilentflute – Screenshots/FRAPS/etc of HoD exploiting? If you’re talking about the previously provided screenshots and solitary video of Stonemist, I’m almost 100% certain that said “exploit” is being thrown in with that “we can hit people through the gate with catapults from inside and flame rams/players on the outside exploit”.
You can hate HoD all you want. Leave your baseless accusations at the door, though.
Last nights match. Go look through the GW2 Guru forums and you will find it. It’s no secret Hod and SB sometimes work together. It’s only a matter of time before SB wants to come in first place and starts to work with ET or JQ to take down HoD.
Why would SBI have to work “with” HoD to take JQ and ET down? SBI does it without HoD in matches as it is, so there is no point in working with HoD to take out servers SBI can already take out.
I’m willing to bet my 50 in game gold (lol) SB can’t take down ET by themselves.
That’s why when ET and SBI were matched without HoD ET was spawn camped?
Oh wait SBI has a night crew who does things, while ET has mainly pugs during the night who lack any organization.Believe me, I was 1 of the 3 who camped 30+ ET in EB. They kept grouping at the legendary guards then running out 1 by 1 to die.
So spawn camping on one battleground means you owned ET the entire match?
Spawn camping all 4 maps, and numbers above 300k means we owned the entire match.
Was that before or after AA/TL transfered to Eredon Terrace? Because They were not always on Eredon Terrace. They were on Nothern Shiverpeak then transfered to ET.
Don’t know either of them and SBI faced Shiverpeak once? I don’t think Shiver made it to the top tier bracket too much. (The only servers SBI has had nice fights with evenly were JQ and HoD during our peak times, otherwise it’s mainly a case of SBI taking over most the maps against other servers, or HoD running us over during off times.)
Oh, and I am in TS right now, as well as looking on guru for the “accused” screen shots of SBI/HoD alliance, not finding anything.
NSP never made it to the top because AA/TL transferred off, otherwise NSP was winning every match and would have eventually been matched with the top if AA/TL never moved servers. I actually think AA/TL would have easily beaten HoD if they stayed on NSP.. Why? Because NSP actually had a good night crew and HoD wouldn’t have been able to pretty much take half the map for free like they can now.

Eredon Terrace was never placed against HoD until AFTER AA/TL transferred. ET started at the bottom of the ladder because it was a new server.
We are not talking about HoD. We are talking about SB. Because if I remember right, ET won every single match after AA/TL transferred to the server. Once ET started to get matched against HoD is when ET started to come in second and third.

The previous 24-hour match? The one that HoD sat on the lead of from the very, very beginning?
Let me go ahead and take a guess at this: it was a non-tagged/no server listed “random” poster who’s account had been created in the last 12 hours, yes? I’d rather not dig through 6 pages of HoD vs ET vs SI to see a random account make an accusation.
It wasn’t a random account. I don’t know why you’re getting so defensive. Again, it’s no secret HoD and SB work together sometimes. Stop acting like you don’t. It’s part of the game, no one is going to get mad at you for doing it.
If it wasn’t a random account, why didn’t you just provide a link or re-post the admission? I’ve never worked with another server against any other server. The only public Wv3 TS/Vent’s I know about are the ones that TA offer so that HoD players can log in and coordinate.
I’d personally suggest you stop acting like you know. Just saying. It looks silly.
Just like you’re too lazy to find it yourself, even after I told you were to find it, I too am too lazy to do the work for you.

I can’t see why HoD would need to form an alliance with another server…they don’t seem to have a problem with holding their own.
Although I can understand the feud TA has with AA might cause an inter-server teamup
The main reason HoD comes out on top is because they have the better graveyard shift crew. While the majority of people on ET and other servers are in bed, the HoD night time crew can easily take a map with little to no competition. During the days, ET actually comes out on top because we have a better day force.

HoD already admitted on the GW2 Guru forums that they worked together to take down ET. Wouldn’t surprise me if they were working together against JQ.
yes, read Anet posts.
Can you link it?
Guild mates say it starts tonight, other people say it starts tomorrow.. When does it start?
Because it’s a real problem when you can’t see enemy invaders because there are so many of them that they are invisible. Nothing is more annoying when you are running from point A to point B by yourself then all a sudden you die from nothing.. Then moments later you see 60+ people on top of your dead body. It’s like “WTF? They were not there before”
Players that have purchased the “Commander” rank and have a full squad should have the highest priority.
Players that have a full 5 man party should be next in line for priority.
Players who are trying to get into WvWvW by themselves should have the lowest priority.
Put the game on a SSD?
I don’t have a SSD.
No point in WvWvW on the account that 90% of the people there are invisible.
It’s really a bummer when I have to wait 4+ hours in order to play WvWvW. I can’t even play with my friends because of the wait time. All we do is WvWvW. We shouldn’t have to be forced to server transfer to a low population server just to play all together. Here are some ideas that I really hope AN takes into action.
- Increase the WvWvW population limit.
- Allow us to queue into multiple WvWvW servers. (Not sure if this is already allowed, if it is then ignore)
- Allow me to make a group and then queue as a group so we can all get in at the same time. (Although this wouldn’t solve the insane queue times)
While I think it should be damaged – I think it should separate from PvE, and cost less to repair than normal (or allow you to repair with badges or whatnot) or perhaps have a free repair NPC with a long cooldown? Perhaps even a controllable resource for that, like mercenaries.
I like this idea, allow us to repair with the tokens we get from players.
The fact that it’s really hard to make gold and keep gold in this game is pretty annoying. So on top of that, they have it so each time you die in PVP (WvWvW) your armor gets damaged. For someone who has a hard time making gold in this game, this is really annoying. It’s hard to enjoy WvWvW when I know I could potentially lose all the gold that I have from playing in there. I really hope they change this or change it so gold isn’t hard to make.
Not only do you have to pay the listing fee, there is what seems to be a 10% collecting. Why? When the Trading Post tells me I should be making 21s and then it turns out that I only get 18s from my sale, one would think the Trading Post is broken.
What is the respawn time on them? Also, do the respawn when you are inside the zone, or do you have to leave the zone and come back?
bad math is bad — impossible to tell from this.
(how is 50 attacks per minute 1.2 attacks per second?)
It’s really gonna depend on the 2-5 skills, your traits, and your gearing choices. A straight-up look at auto-attack will misrepresent.
LOL!
What happened there is that for the Longbow, I decided to count in my head for 60 seconds per auto attack.. I lost count and then said to myself “I think I was at 50”. I did the Shortbow differently, I just didn’t go back and do the Longbow the same way I did the Shortbow.. So let me fix that.
So I have been trying to figure out which one is the better option for straight up damage. Some people say the Longbow and many other people say the Shortbow. So I’m not the best math person in the world and these numbers are not 100% accurate so please bare with me.
Longbow (white auto-attacks)
Four auto-attacks total damage – 2560 (average 640 per hit max range)
Attack speed for four hits – About 4.797 seconds or about 72 attacks per minute (About 1.2 attacks a second)
72 attacks x 640 damage = 46,080 damage per minute
Shortbow (white auto-attacks)
Four auto-attacks total damage – 1720 (average 430 per hit max range)
Attack speed for four hits – About 1.891 seconds or about 230 attacks per minute (About 3.8 attacks a second)
230 attacks x 430 damage = 98,900 damage per minute
This is very rough math.. I am no math expert as said before, so if you see issues with my math feel free to correct it. Also, this is ONLY taking into account white auto attack damage. We are not counting critical strikes, bleeds, or abilities.. Just straight up auto-attacks. So my question is, is it intended for the Shortbow to destroy the Longbow in damage like this?

I’m already apart of two other guilds, however, they’re casual guilds and not super active. I’m looking for a guild that is very active and mature. Looking for a guild that loves to do Dungeons, PVP, and WvWvW.
No one knows for sure because ArenaNet hasn’t said anything about it. Although I do find it real annoying that it says I should receive 5 silver if someone buys my stacked items, and then only get 4 silver and 50 copper. Perhaps ArenaNet is trying to make it hard to impossible to play the auction house like you can in other MMOs
So I decided to test out the buy low sell high thing because people claim to be making 1g/2g per hour. So I bought 10 vials of blood for 4s and 50c. I then sold that 10 vials of blood for 50c more, which would be 5s and 0c all together. So after the Trading Posts tells me I have sold all 10 vials of blood, it shows my profit only 4s and 50c.. The listing price for my sale was 22c. So I should have made 4s and 78c.. So what the heck is going on here? The Trading Post is screwing me out of my profit. Or am I doing my math wrong?
Same thing happened to me. I bought an item for 2G and 99S and it took my gold but didn’t give me my item. The sad thing is.. I won’t get my item nor my gold back when they do fix this issue.
Happens on my server as well.
