Decoy actually transfer target from mesmer to clone
This is not true. I’m not sure why you would think this.
Mistake happens.
Deleted my game 2 weeks ago. after over 1.5 year of playing. It become really time consuming lately with my WvW guild. Can’t play for 2-3 hours every day. Need to spend time in real life not in a fantasy. Now i can’t stop trolling forum:) It is kittening addiction.
To answer the basic question posed, People view PU as OP and Cheese because of two major reasons.
1. It relies heavily upon stealth, which has 0 hard counters in game at this time.
2. Mesmers can summon Clones, Phants and have them do damage. This damage and summoning process does not De-stealth the Mesmer.
People tend to frown upon PU for similar reasons to frowning upon MM Necros or Spirit rangers. When in a battle with any of these builds, you are fighting off AI more than you are the actual player.
It’s not fun to fight against, and it’s not very fun to play (IMO) either.
And as stated above, its a poor choice for more hardcore sPvP matches as it is neither a bunker nor a decap centric build. Aka, it doesn’t hold points and it doesn’t cap points half or even 1/4th as well as other builds or other professions.
then why isnt phanta builds looked down on gs-x/p phantas full zerker while stealthed can jst kill u with phantas and no one complains about that. all AI and sitting in stealth. alot of mesmers damage can come from AI other then shatter/ glamour builds.
Becouse it is easier to kill zerk phat mesmer.
Compare 14k hp 2k armor on zerk phat to 26k hp 3k armor full dire cond PU:) with over 2k cond dmg.
Also PU usually have 2x or 3x invis uptime comparing to phat
BTW who told you no one complain about phats. I guarantee you can find alot of complains how big bad mesmer kill some poor noob with huge scary phantoms and need to be nerfed asap

i always see people on jq doing it at any time day or night. my guess any server that is full bg tc jq has champ train.
If you like easy mode fast lvling roll a warrior.
Get into guild asap. You can get a lot of help from guildmates. Just don’t ask them to donate money or mats to you. If you have close friend in the game then ask him for gold and lvl few crafts fast. It is a lot of Xp points. Use craftig guides. Doing maps with buddy much more fun and goes faster. Always ask in map chat if anyone does same map and invite them to do it with you. More people more kills faster lvling.
Not any other good GM traits so ofc PU is taken pretty consistently. What I don’t understand is how people call it cheese or OP’ed when all you have to do is keep the Mesmer on target or just simply run away given most mesmers don’t spec appropriately.
A lot of PU mesmers run 3-4 invis skils. Decoy actually transfer target from mesmer to clone and all other invis skills remove target from mesmer.
You can run from fully cond PU mesmer with Staff Sc/T but it is not that easy to run away from power PU with GS Sw/P especially with Traveler/Centaur/Speed runes.
Katniss I think he meant go to the mist and have the npc mesmer turn you into moa for practice on how to use moa skills after you where transformed.
That. Sorry for not explaining it better. I always forget certain people need detail instructions.
I don’t see it becomes very popular.
Thanks for watching and you reply!
Thanks man I really appreciate it and it makes me very happy to hear! =)I do have a question regarding your shatter play which I’ve been scratching my head about for some time – how do you feel running with almost zero conditon removal?
I play a similar stealth shatter approach (well not recently – I have not played since february), although with different equipment, traits and staff instead of GS, and I would love to be able to swap mantra of recovery for veil – but there are times when it’s impossible to avoid taking a hit and get landed with a long duration poison or something… what do you do when/if this happens?
Thinking post patch of maybe sticking generosity sigls and maybe taking torch trait, but not having on demand access to clear poison or similar I find to be a disadvantage.
Do you ever get melted by conditions?
I didn’t see his build but sure he has Mender’s purity or Torch skills traited. Plus as you can see he doesn’t have vids with fights against high cond nrcros or engys:)
thx ppl! i think im sticking w mesmer. any build specificly tailored for ascalonian catacombs?
AC is eles kingdom. P1 and 3 with 1- 2 eles in the group can be done under 10 min. It actually can be done under 10 min with any high DPS good group but eles makes it incredible easy. Regular Zerk phat build with all reflections traited. Use sw/f sw/p for spider and gravelings. Change to S/P and GS for burrows and try to pick up Icebow or Flamesword. Skills on spider null field MofR feedback and TW. I constanly change skills. SOme are good for running like decoy mass invis blink othes for fighting. 1 i keep always MofR.
BTW centaur runes are for poor people. If you have money go for traveler if not runes of speed. By some reason everybody in dungeons trying to speed clear it and get annoyed when you last to the party. I think all speed running thing is a bit idiotic cos it saves few min for a good group and kills mediocre groups but better go with the flow.Centaur runes are fine for skipping trash in Arah and Traveler’s runes are not needed for any dungeon. Oh and Greatsword is terrible.
I love idiotic comments like that one.
GS not terrible it is situational and on burrows it works just fine. When you can stay far enough from the target GS numbers are compatable to main hand sword. On P3 with bad groups i can solo last 1-2 burrows with GS.
My point about Traveler runes is to have + 25% all the time without using any skills. No heal no tonics. For me it is annoying constantly clicking something during run. Especially when i need to skip trash mobs or traps.
I did Teq in Zerk. Had no problem at all. In Pve Zerk is fine.
Yay. More people all over the place. Grats on your experiences vs eles! Grats you didn’t die to moa before! Yes, I died not just from moa alone. Yes, moa still needs to be changed.
I think if you just read my posts, instead of have a seizure about the skill mechanics, you’d see that it’s a cheesy skill that you guys get, even if it’s “bad” to use it.
This is what this thread has earned me:
- People on my server referring to dodging and moas whenever I happen to be trolling about something else.
- People in spvp moa-ing me doing the spvp daily thinking that it’s going to kill me in every situation. Sometimes it works because I’m laughing too much.
A lot of people explained why Moa is not as op as you think. I understand your frustration especially if you have been turn to moa first time. L2p. I actually was killed once or twice by people who knew what they do in moa form.
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Polymorph_Moa
Go to Mists learn how to use polymorph skills and stop trolling
BTW Coming to class forum and expecting people to agree with you that some skills are Op is kinda stupid in first place. Especially considering how many mesmer skills was nerfed by Anet.
Moa usually used as a way to annoy and troll not as necessary fighting skill. Personally i would gladly give it up for CD reduction on MassInvis or TW but then people like you start complaing about it.
Nice. I couldn’t stop laughing at guardian using tome on you. Another mistake i constantly see ppl do is razing when stealth thief or mesmer is around. I honestly feel sorry for GS/staff guards. Not sure they understand how bad that set up is against mesmers or thieves. My main for a long time was guard:)
A lot of people hate PU especially yours full cond variety. But they always hate someone or something especially when loosing every fight. I’d say kitten them. Who cares what dead ppl thinking. If you comfortable to play it go with it. Overall a lot of idiots even among mesmers considering PU OP easy mode low skill cap play stile.
Mesmer personal DPS is crap. All our DPS is in phats or shatter bursts.
@Drakma.1549
I’m very surprised because this comment is about 2 hours too late. I expected it earlier.No, it’s sad if for you “game life” and “real life” are equal.
And yes, I’m expecting the prize because instead of spamming aoe and rushing I try to heal and rez downed players.
And if you’re talking about real life:
If someone have won because I helped him, I expect “thank you” instead of “I’ve done this alone”.Stop being rude and stop talking about my life, it’s not your business.
@Ptolemy.5086
Oh my, I want prize for winning. I’m so bad. I’ll go to the hell.
Bro don’t get upset. Money in the game is very easy to make. Spend 20 min to run 2 dungeons, make 3-5 g and go to WVW to have fun. I start my day with CoF p1 and AC p3 or TA UP. Each run can be done in 10 min and provide you with enough money and loot plus daily ach. If you are after # of kills or loot in WvW i recomend ele, necro or staff guard for zerg runs. Mesmer is bad farmer
If you go to WVW for loot it is stupid and pointless. Go farm champs and events. I usually end up spending 1-2 g every time in WvW on camps and structure upgrades.
HEHE last time when i try to raise that issue on forum my thread was removed by moderator and i was almost banned. I guess Anet is ok with it.
Cond mesmer in PVE is worthless. Cond builds is main reason no one likes necros and engys and kick them out from all speed runs.
BTW centaur runes are for poor people. If you have money go for traveler if not runes of speed.
I can have 100% swiftness uptime with centaur runes. That’s better than traveler, and it costs less.
My first main was guard. As you know with Retreat, staff and Save yourself guardian can keep permaswiftnes but it require constant use of skills. After 6 month i got sick of it. Now i am kinda rich in the game and lazy ie prefer to use traveler:) I got lucky had 17 traveler runes when Anet converted it from MF to current state.
thx ppl! i think im sticking w mesmer. any build specificly tailored for ascalonian catacombs?

People assume I have infinite dodges or something.There’s no way to know ahead of time that a mesmer is running moa. Their body turning purple is a crap indication of when it is even being cast. I had no idea how to detect it at all until I looked at multiple youtube videos. If I cast any ranged attack you can see it as clear as day, and move out of the way. Moa is 1s, leaves no trailing animation, and if you were spamming escapes and didn’t hit the 5 after (in my case the 4 in air with staff to remove immob ended up being the 4 on moa) it landed on you, then get immob’d, it’s gg.
I don’t know how this skill even made it into pvp to begin with.
A lot of ignorant comments and trolling accusations. I get it, you don’t like elementalists, me, or anything that points out imbalances.
Moa is a bad skill. Not a lot of mesmers use it. It is dodgable blockable takes to long to cast and you can still fight in moa form or break LOS.
I kill 70-80% of eles in WvW without moa no problem unless it runs away.
Do you see me on ele forum complaining about meteor crap you drop on me and my arrow cart destroying it and downing me on the wall of the tower with 1 hit or 3 k 11111flameswords hits?
My advice roll a thief or mesmer or war and play it in WvW. Ele is not the best class to fight mesmers 1v1. With equal players skill ele should loose to mesmer 70-80% of fights.
My WvW rank 472 i have seen them all.:) Basically what dire thief does is hit you then C&D of you or clones invis caltrop and hit you again. Direct dmg is minimum but bleeding is huge. They usually d/p p/d or p/p with a lot of HP and tough. It is impossible to kill dire thief 1v1 unless he is a total idiot. They kill you or run reset come back and kill you.
Another very unpleasant type is full glass. They can backstab 10+k on 2k or 7-8 on 2.6k of armor. I have seen as high as 16k backstabs on me in full zerk but on regular basis it is 10-12 on zerk phat build. Backstab, heartseeker C&D and you are on your kitten but they die very easy if you catch them off guard. I honestly prefer to fight glass and not dire.
Thieves are main reason for PU build.
I deleted game yesterday. No more WvW. Now i have to stop trolling forum and everything in my life return to normal.
The rest of season 2 will be a fight between JQ and TC for second place and BG comming out to kick anyone too close to their PPT. Nothing new. Have seen it during season 1.
I think in seasons only winning should count. All other places should go with same reward or no reward at all. That might make playfield really interesting.
I think Tag color should depend o CMD rank and maybe popularity.
Basch i am not sure which tier is FA but in T1 splitting main zerg into 3 is good way to wipe and to loose BL. That is main T1 problem. Bloob or wipe.
Healing signet wars with perma speed covering half a map in 2-3 jumps. Chain fear necros, cond engys, PU cond mesmers, meditation guards. You all annoy me and i am not playing glass thief with only method to survive is stealth. I wouldn’t mind 10% backstab reduction otherwise in my opinion Thieves are not that bad and in a good place.
It is highly unpleasant when good glass thief put you on your kitten with 2-3 hits but it is usually your own fault. Don’t go on glass zerk builds in WVW.
TBH, Power’s probably the worst stat. I run a super tanky healing mesmer machine. With healing mantra, healing power possibly is by far the best stat available to me. I equip all mantras, because ATM I think they’re incredibly OP. Being stunned? 2 seconds of stability, AND like 2.5khp. I’d much rather that over damage.
I’m predicting new meta Healing Power tank support hybrid PU mesmer.
That meta already in the game. It is Guardian:)
Right now, i have bloodlust on sword and another sword with Air for changing after 25.
Tornment on GS, energy on pistol. It is for the man Hybrid set. For full cond staff with corruption, and Sc/T with+cond and plus duration. Rarely use it, don’t like full cond build but run it sometimes in Zergs Dire armor rune of speed and mixed PTV and cond trinkets let me run close to Pin and not hung back during the fight.
But i agree with Lavra. Wait. Good sigils are expensive as well as runes. Ima sure apr 15 will bring a lot of surprises and a lot of broken stuff as well. Maybe also few new builds when everybody get accustom to changes
For PVE lets do easiest calculation and see mesmer place.
How many players of same class are good in dungeon group without making it redundant.
War 1-3
Ele 1-2
Guard 1 rarely 2
mesmer 1
Thief 0-1
ranger 0-1
engy 0
necro negative number
Did you watch Osicat vid on Shatter GS S/T. Check it out. He has detailed gear and trait + vid. Very nice.
I personally run MofR all the time ie with same build as yours can remove 6 cond. I asked coz was curios how well you deal with cond. I have no issue with any cond builds besides engy. I met 1 guy whom i fought 10 times and newer was able to kill. Skilled engy is very rare but if you see one run away. In PVP skilled engy probably hardest class to kill. Necros on other hand are very easy to kill, i rarely loose to them.
Don’t get me wrong but about cond thieves you have no idea what you are talking about. Dire thief can caltrop you to death very fast jumping around and newer give you a chance to hit him. Caltrops kill phats and clones fast as well.
Guards have no cond per say. They have only fire which is not staked ie not worth mentioning cos it is instant and usually gone faster then you can remove it but does a lot of dmg. Eles in my experience rarely do big cond dmg. Usually i see 2 types. PTV with very little DPS or Zerked. Zerk eles have highest DPS in the game but die easy due to low HP. PTV takes too long to kill.
Rangers ATM are not worth to be discussed. 80% are bearbow and other 20% with some skill very limited by class mechanic and easy for mesmer to kill.

For god sake it 100000 and 1 post about stealth. Stop crying. BTW i am not using thief in WVW. Thief is not easiest class to master and good thieves are rare enough. I kill a lot of thieves i die a lot fighting them. Would be nice if backstabs on 2600 armor wouldn’t be 7-8k. Besides that i have no problem. Almost all classes have mechanics to fight thieves, learn how to fight and stop going to WvW in zerk armor if you are not a thief.
Every time i see 1v X vids all X’s are usually noobs. I refer to first part of vid 1. In my experience ppl who are not at list 100+ rank usually suck. Unless they did a lot PVP before WvW. Sorry have no patience to watch it all. Still nice vids and good job. I am curios how you do against cond builds with just 2 cond removal every 20 sec.
Looking at MOS, it appears that TC decided to play for 2nd place at around Sunday and started a 2v1 on JQ which lasted until early Tuesday. With 1st place out of the picture, it looks like JQ started retaliating on Tuesday and are now focusing on TC, leading to a 2v1 on TC.
The ex-SOR on TC did not learn anything from their mistake in Season 1 and basically repeated the same mistake a second time. Just not smart at all…
I can confirm that this pretty much happened. It was a really a low point for us in JQ, watching 1st place being served to BG by TC, and probably commanded by the ex-SoR players who jumped ship to TC.
I don’t know why there so so much fixation on JQ from TC or why they basically ensured BG got first again in this round, especially considering BG’s flawless wins in the first season. It’s something I don’t think I’ll ever understand.
We haven’t deliberately 2v1’d anyone. You let yourselves get 2v1’d with terrible map politics (such as attacking TC when they’re attacking us). Also your SEA guilds have been a no-show so far. Haven’t seen WvW or NUKE out in force and haven’t seen much of Ge lately either. Just been stOP, FOO and MERC/SoX doing overtime. They hiding out in EoTM?
Yep we are missing a lot of people by some reason. I think JQ start hitting TC hard and ignore BG as much as possible coz it is obvious BG will win season and we don’t have enough players ATM to fight both sides. I have no idea why we can’t cover all maps even during pick hours. SOR did same thing as TC doing now. I remeber SOR zerg covering our EB border WP helping BG to take our keep. WHere is SOR now? #12 i think? TC got a lot of WvW commanders and players from SOR. Good luck with it guys. Did you already find next server to move?

It all smoothly went from PvE leveling to Dungeons then to WvW to end up in personal attacks and “I know this better than you” ’ .
To OP – In an orgnized setting, Mesmers will be phased out of PvE content for most dungeons, only few being an exception (and some fractals). If a mesmer is only taken for reflect, a guardian can do it better and deal more damage, have more accessible active support.
Not sure about ranger’s dps compared to mesmer’s in a speedclear setting, but I guess you’d better take a ranger for the prec buffs rather than a mesmer (rangers do have reflects too).
I am curios how guard has better DPS comparing to mesmer. Do you even play mesmer or guard? Fully zerked meditation guard can do good bursts but survive very little. 11k hp is not really good unless group using los spots all the time. Phat zerked mesmer can be on par dmg wise to zerk war in longer boss fights and unlike war don’t need to be melee all the time. If we are talking DPS here get 5 zerked eles with Flameswords and phase every other class out of the game including your obviosly favored war coz eles DPS is higher.
while rolling around in a ball of 50+ players isnt that "skillfull "
it does take team coordination, and a excelent commander that leads the ball in strategical advantage points in the heat of battle.
While it is also mostly spaming 11111111, there are also critical moments (seconds) in a zerk fight that can decide the end of the battle.
elementalists calling water fields on the commander, so the rest of the group can prepare their blast finishers to fill up the entire zerks health, static fields, walls, meteor showers that wreck wall siedges.
Fast thieves that report scouts that can make a zerg ambush, or avoid a battle.
I agree, sometimes combat seems simplified, but when you pile up a bunch of players with a bunch of various skills you can get some amazing resoults.
PS: Gw2 offers a lot of different content, some like casually exploring the pve world, others like fractals/farming dungeons, some are there for just to pla spvp. You cant say “i find eating a baggette on a cannon for 5 hours boring and there for it is bad”
He is not saying it is bad or useless. But it is definitely boring for anyone accustom to active game play. In my experience zerg require good commander and TS. Very little depends on individual player. I like my guild zerg runs but rarely participate in pugs zergs.
The funny thing is he is traited rifle too. This char kills more stealthers with kill shot and volley in a group than any of my other L80. Channeled attacks own thieves. Mesmers are super easy I just shoot the clones and the attacks pierce right through to the Mesmer.
And no I don’t run him solo he is a Zerg spec only. This game isn’t played solo. If I need to scout I have a thief and a Mesmer.
Honestly, that’s pretty cute. There’s enough projectile reflects going around in any competent group that the only thing you’ll be doing with rifle is killing yourself.
Additionally, saying that mesmers are easy because you just shoot the clones immediately tells us that you run him outside of zergs…because clones don’t survive in zergs.
Umm there are no reflects because the JQ/BG hammer trains run retaliation only. What the EU guilds have been doing to beat the hammer meta is piercing projectiles and ranged kiting. I have been trying it and it is very effective vs clumped melee.
And yes whenever I see a Mesmer I literally just stand there and shoot clones and phantasms and maybe dodge a zerker. I am not mocking mesmers I am kittened off that my Mesmer is basically useless in T1 WvW.
I know how mesmers work and I have run a PU condi build. What you may not be aware of is how weak sauce it is from a warrior perspective.
What you don’t understand is not all mesmers run PU cond. Read mes forum more. Problem with cond PU is if people ignor them they are useless. my Mes has 2100-2200 power 700-800 cond 2600 armor and 23k hp. I love riffle wars. Wonna see more. Need bags. BTW. I have 4 lvl 80 guard war thief and mes.
I actually like the 2v1 thing. TC got 2v1 hard last night while I was on and I enjoyed it. Got far more bags than I would have got from capping towers. It keeps things interesting because your constantly fighting. I know some don’t like it, but in a 3-way battle it’s to be expected.
I’m surprised though as why any servers would 2v1 anyone but the leader. Shouldn’t TC and JQ being teaming up to topple BG down to more respectable points that those servers can reach? IMO, it makes more sense to say, team up to the point the top server is wiped off every map then spawn camped until the scores are more leveled out.
I like the 2v1 system though, though i’d much prefer if Anet upgraded their systems enough that we can add a 4th server to the mix.
In regular weekly matches 2v1 might work. In seasons it is all wrong. For example TC knows well they can’t win but can get second place by double teaming JQ. I am not saying it is wrong coz JQ did same thing at the end of season 1 by double teaming SOR for second place and pulling TC to 3rd. Personally i would love to see few 1v1 matches between BG and JQ. It might be interesting
Shrug. What else to do in the game? I am dungeon master, 11k ach. jumped all JP’s. If i stop WvW then it is time do delete game coz farming same dungeons and events for ectos sounds amazingly boring.
Every build has it’s place. I like power + cond PU in WvW, phat in Dungeons, sometimes shatter for dueling. I see no reason to pull nails with my teeth when perfectly good set of pliers lie on the table. I have enough money in the game to keep all mesmer weapons and 2-3 sets of armor each for different task.
So, yeah. As we all know, ANet’s been pushing “QOL Enhancements” onto Mantras, in an attempt to make them more usable. So my question is:
Out of all the modifications to Mantra mechanics in the past months, why have they NOT fixed the fact that Mantras are CANCELLED when you enter or exit a body of water?
I mean, seriously … you have a breather on, you can talk. What The Kitten?
EDIT: I’ve had charges vanish when I enter or exit water. But a test right after this topic has me retaining charges on Distraction. The others still crap out, though.
You should have same skill setup underwater. Then mantras stay charged. IHave MofR as 7 in both setups and it newer loosing charges
Well, mostly just concerned about when I complete ascended armor set because I wouldn’t wanna regret going full zerk if the ferocity difference is noticeable.
Zerk in WVW is not the best set anyway. I run dire set with zerk trinkets. For dung runs zerk always best option. In few month all mats return to original prices and you’ll be able to make 2-3 sets. I run ascended half zerk half assasin in dungeons
Cute, a PU clone-death spammer pretending to be skilled.
Every mesmer spam clones. If you don’t understand that you even bigger idiot then previos guy. Every mesmer skill put clone or phat up. It is how we fight. Hope you don’t expect me to kill war with main hand sword spaming 1
The funny thing is he is traited rifle too. This char kills more stealthers with kill shot and volley in a group than any of my other L80. Channeled attacks own thieves. Mesmers are super easy I just shoot the clones and the attacks pierce right through to the Mesmer.

Please please kill my clones. I have 1 up every time i dodge. I love people killing my clones and get conditions. BTW when invis i have aegis ie no DMG to me. That guy is an idiot who kill few noobs and now think he is god of WvW
War or Guard if you really intend to take your zerg into fights. Do you understand how it works? You as commander is the target for all friendly AOE.That is how used to tell it one smart person. Put a target on commander and hit him like he owns you money and refuse to repay. You are not standing on the side and DPS with GS but actually go in the middle of enemy hammer train.
just to play a mesmer basically you are forced to have more skill than the average ranger
mesmer have really good fields i think people are more afraid to fight on a null field than any other kind of field.
but as mesmer i so far havent been able to beat anybody 1v1 since month of release
thieves just kill me while stealthed, guardians just shrug off any of my conditions, archers would be ok if their pets didnt stay locked onto me despite my stealthi know it cant be because of lack of skill because i get every skill off on them, chain every combo use every block and dodge i have. there could be an issue with my gears (still using greens confused about runes) but i cant imagine gears should really make that much difference
1v1 is where memsmer shines. This class as well as thief created for 1v1 fights. FOr me mesmers actually worst class to fight which is more realated to my large sckreen and me sitting far from it. I deal with thieves much easier then with mesmers. Other classes go like that
Mesmer rate is 50-50
Thief 50-50 as well but fights ar much faster and easier comparing to mesmers
Engy I can do almost nothing against good one but it is “rare avis” 80% engys suck and easy to kill
War 70-30. Newe know what to expect. Some impossible ti kill, some zerked and good. But considering huge numbers i kill them a lot.
Ele. 70-30 but much easier comparing to wars
Guard only zerk guards with focus judge intervention and hammer can be a problem,
PTV Staff, GS are a joke in 1v1 80-20.
necro. Power necro usually easy but for meta cond necro i need to run null field and mantra 90-10
ranger. I have seen few good ranger but it is newer Bearbow type. in 1v1 with rangers i die 4 times. Have no idea how many i kill.
BTW my rank in WVW on memser is Bronze colonel and i rarely run in zergs. Small groups or roaming. IE my over 20 k are real not like ele or necro aoe marks.Necro with same rank as me can have 50+k kills easy.
(edited by Ptolemy.5086)
War in PVE is easy mode op class. It was that way from start and then wars where buffed and rebuffed by Anet in order not to suck in WVW and PVP.
SO far best dungeon run group composition is 2 wars, ele, guard and mesmer. Will see what happens after april 15.
As you can see this week, we’ve decided to spank you
And, let it be known, the “we’ve” he’s referring to is both TC and BG. For Queue’s on JQ, we only have 15 on one map right now. If you like to play during the time you made this thread, we have plenty of room for you in WvW on JQ.
HEHE Sad but true. We are being double teamed by BG and TC atm and a lot of people prefer to stay out of WVW waiting for easier week. BTW to BG fun boy. I am not denying BG is a very good WvW server but we wait and see what happens when yaklovers are not in the same match up. JQ helped them to get to 3rd place last season now BG helping them to get second place. Weeks between season 1 and 2 can show real picture. Seasons are more about politics. TC knows they can’t take first place and only real chance for them to get second is become kittenes to BG or JQ. BG and TC basically not fight each other now. Both servers fight JQ.
