Guild Wars 2

We are still waiting for an answer about why they are nerfing crit damage in wvw when it was only OP in PVE.

I have been crashing every 10 minutes on average after the most recent update. I used to crash befor ethe update too, but not at this rate.

Oh look, Chris is back to trash BG. He seems to be one of the few here who care about PPT.

On another note, please consider SoR and JQ too. Winning doesn’t mean as much these days because of BG’s clear dominance. This week could be our …………… 14th straight win?

I said BG had skilled guilds and Siggy here says I’m trashing them. Your world is an odd, sad little place.

Saying our guilds are skilled wasn’t the point you were making. Your main point was, we have no right to say we aren’t stacked. But we don’t claim to be ‘not stacked’. Please quote someone here from BG saying that?

Try reading page 1. Page 2/3 are most likely the same.

BG is a joke.

The people who think forum posters represent a server are a joke. Could you please quote someone from BG saying we are not stacked? I can’t be bothered to read all that rubbish.

My FPS has dropped drastically since reset last night. I downloaded the latest drivers from the geforce website, but nothing has changed. I use GT525m but it has always run smoothly on lowest settings in wvw. Please help, because I can’t play with 3 FPS in large fights in wvw.

All hail the condition bunkers. If you can’t beat them, join them!

Peetee.9406:

You do realize that SoR has the lowest score of any of the 24 NA servers this week right?

6 months ago, Tier 1 was the only balanced tier in the entire NA bracket. Now it’s one of the most unbalanced tiers in the NA bracket.

Even with JQ/SoR double teaming you and you not playing to win, you’re still crushing us. That’s how unbalanced this tier has become.

This is not a ‘pat yourself on the back’ moment, this is a ‘oh god, what have we done’ moment. Your guilds should be transferring off to even the tier but you’re Blackgate. You only care about winning and not about fair play.

So you are blaming BG for the mass exodus your server is experiencing?

lol BG is full server now… bandwagon reached it’s limit it seems xD

oh don’t worry, if you are bringing a guild over they will have some large groups log off for a few minutes.

Plus, don’t count out the devs yet. Just because they don’t have the time to update WvW doesn’t mean they don’t have the time to expand server caps again.

I remember SoS did that back in the day >_>

Yes, we did. That’s why I’m sure BG would do it.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not casting judgement on BG (despite continuing this thread with it’s snide title) but merely pointing out the absurdities that go into maintaining a #1 server.

So you are stating your opinions as facts and then say you are not casting judgment? You clearly have something against us.

Lol don’t even bother with Chris, it’s almost as if he is paid to trash talk tier 1 on every opportunity he gets. I think he is still bitter about BG replacing SoS in tier 1 and JQ for the implosion.

It’s actually a lot of fun to poke the collective ego. Watching the goings on here, much like watching senior citizens argue in public. It’s always fun to point out the logical contortions folks make in T1 that justifies or re-explains the shifts in their fortunes.
BG trying to say they are not stacked like a brick outhouse and trying to claim that SoR is still a viable contender is amusing to me because it’s so insulting to the intelligence of whoever you think is reading it.

It’s like really bad propaganda from the 40’s and 50’s.

Stacked has always been a relative term. ET would call your server stacked. BG’s coverage has diminished post leagues, but not as much as SoR’s and JQ’s has. Their night time coverage is just a shadow of what it used to be.

I have to admit, winning these days isn’t nearly as much fun as it used to be. @SoR&JQ, hope you get some EU transfers.

There is a lot of truth in what you say, but BG is stacked in relation to all servers (NA, don’t know about EU).

JQ had a lot of pre-season mojo and are now falling more and more behind.

I think BG forgets how many individuals move there on a constant basis. You don’t need large guild transfers when you have a steady stream of recruits.

It’s not our fault PVX are flocking to BG because we won the leagues. And JQ was doign fine untl Waha quit.

So much hate towards BG… Perhaps take it out on the battle field? Double team if you have to?

Clearly, this is a L2P issue.

- HerpsADerPs, Oneofthe12DerPs

I would probably agree if it wasn’t a matter of numbers. The best player in the world will get hit the same with the same set up and variables on both ends.

False. The best player in the world knows how to mitigate damage from key attacks.

The best player in the world will get hit the same with the same set up and variables on both ends

you guys are all wrong, the greatest player in the game too gets his butt kicked by upleveled theifs.

Does the OP mean real bodies, with VOLUME?

Great news! I’m sure BG is as happy as SoR to see you guys back!

So it just hit me, if I want a thread closed, I would just have to start posting about a matchup in that thread. >_>

Noxrawr.6125:

i died in LITERALLY 0.5 sec.

Less zerk, more toughness.

Welcome to build wars 2, where your build is a measure of skill.

I’m curious to see how RG fare against VoTF. VoTF have been dominating the gvg scene recently.

johnnymiller.5968:

1 vs 1 kind of defeats the purpose of playing as a guild & pretty much world vs world. If you want 1 vs 1 go play pvp. Another side to 1 v 1 scenario is players stumbling upon the two players, not knowing and helping out their server/guild mate as you cannot distinguish between two people having a 1 on 1, vs one player being randomly attacked by someone roaming.

I would 1v1 in spvp if the available builds weren’t so crappy and had acess to consumables.

Should I use 6 runes of melandru or 4 runes of resistance + 2 runes of the sunless?

If i use 6 runes of melandru, I will gain 90 toughness, but will lose 5% condi reduction. Is this worth it? The 5% extra condi reduction is enough to reach -100% condi duration reduction for cripple, chill and immob. So will I be completely immune to those conditions? Or is there a minimum duration I will be affected no matter what condi duration redution i have equipped?

Stun duration reduction isn’t of concern.

I roam all the time on an ele. You just have to know how to pick your fights.

Grumpdogg.6910:

[SG] expoiting ftw

Lol are you new to wvw?

Last few hours……..

GG, Anet, way to kill the only game mode many people enjoy.

All these tears have convinced me to try a diamond skin build.

CuddleStrike.8215:

Just go to the new ones we’re all gravitating towards….. 136 users thus far.

I already did, under a different name, though. I wonder who will be able to identify me first.

RIP, will to troll. I guess I will have to do it in-game by /laugh’ing at the end of a fight. But it won’t have the same effect knowing they won’t be able to vent all that anger towards me on the official forums.

Tibstrike.2974:

It’s almost as if Anet is trying to stop the proliferation of condi-builds in WvW. Maybe now we will see less condi-necros. Maybe.

Personally, I’m fine with Diamond Skin. If you can’t chip away the 3-4k HP it takes to drop an ele to 90% then you are completely ignoring an entire part of the games damage system. You can still run condi damage heavy while still having a few attacks that can do damage.

Please tell me how you build an ele with 30-40k HP? The max I have reached is 26k.

I can hit 30k buffed on my mesmer..so maybe its possible for ele with full sentinel armor and trinkets..? Either way, you can always quickly take down the 10% really fast. The only time I’ve seen it be really effective is when people just spam their hardest condi skills constantly blindly and without thought

But the base health of an ele is much lower than a mesmer’s.

I too play for fun, not rewards.

@OP, please stay out of wvw, Mr. PVE’r. I personally had least fun during the league, when wvw was actually rewarding.

don’t be offended zergling

You actually got offended by what I said?

Ah well the W3 forums were fun while they lasted have fun and enjoy them before the new year.

Hi all

I’ve played OCX/SEA.

All 3 servers bring the 40-60 mans at those times.

All 3 have 10-20 mans guild untagged.

All have great 5-10mans.

And sometimes each group type meets the wrong group.

It’s a part of T1 wvw meta. Nothing we say or do will change it.

FW

fannywong, join your fellow countrymen and join JQ

Lol asking commanders to join your server? not only a commander, but a community leader who is in the process of rebuilding the server. I didn’t think you could stoop any lower after going into recruitment threads and trolling. Fannwong, don’t even bother replying next time to the obvious troll.

You guys are in 3rd place and looking like you will stay there, unless that comment was for your own server i’d shhh if i was you.

You may be reading too much in to whatever I type on these forum things… If whatever I say is bringing tears though, please let me know what it is so I can continue whatever that is!

lol chest thumping while in 3rd place.

They aren’t known as the blobbiest server ever for no good reason!

that from bg? lolz git good son

you guys are not going to stop 80manblobbing.

Give us a break. We’ve tried over and over to stop your 80 man blobs but our 20-30 man blobs are no match

Since when does 20-30 people constitute a blob?

scootshoot.6583:

To each their own but jeezus, it’s crazy the frequency of transfers some of you guys and gals do just for a video game.

wow!

I think you have it the wrong way around. It’s because it is only a video game, some people move about servers freely. It’s tarkus’ decision if he wants to move to the winning server everytime.

This guy is on to something! SoR and HoD should switch spots for a week!

NA Prime Time. One Map. Come at me brah.

I’ll make you think back to when tequatl first came out and you had no clue what was going on. You’re gifs don’t even belong in T1. Go back to T9 bro. I’ll eat you up quicker than a fat kid.

Teqwhatl? Is that a new FotM?

Personally I liked the bad rewards. I hope next season they reduce the APs too, that way less people will be doing irrelevant things in wvw. Most of the only people complaining about rewards are the PVE’rs who played wvw only for the rewards.

mistsim.2748:

Taras.4367:

ZD’s should be form the start of the video to the end. the only reason why you won.

Blackgate buys “top” WvW guilds, this much is known. my suggestion to these guilds is if you have any cojones and truly want a challenge, you should play on a server that isnt stacked =)

Says the guy on JQ. We all know JQ gave ‘stacked’ a whole new meaning when free transfers ended.

Holy crap, FA I didn’t expect this from you! Beat TC and it means you are on par with SoR.

It is stupid to either guard against direct damage or conditions and if you are fighting the wrong type of player, you have a really hard time just staying alive. The solution would be to guard against both, but then you wouldn’t be able to kill any thing. Something needs to be done or reduce CDs of condition removals. Toughness needs to factor into the damage conditions do.

Thats okay, 40 upleveled necros are having their way with your home BL

-_- he speaks the truth

If your going to post screenshots remember to edit the chat out first.

Y

Because our server chat is private to OUR server, but in this case your posting what BL your on, our numbers, but even worse the chat contains info about a mesmer going to hide in the keep thats about to flip as it happens. Just get in the habit of editing all chat even if you dont think its important.

Well for once, it actually helps that you did not censor the chat, there was a BG mesmer glitching in bay. SoR knew he was there, we could just not kill him the way you cant kill krait in underwater fractal that glitch into the rock. (Of course in his case, he knows how to exploit the glitch). TY for putting a character name on that mesmer!

Lol no, it that wasn’t him who glitched in. It was the “OTHER” mesmer you saw. He was definitely hiding in a super secret but totally legit spot. Sweep better.

Also I think the original point was that in the chat box there are swear words that are usually -kittened- out on the forums. Posting an image with those words in it is considered going around the rules. Even if it’s unintentional.

Quick way to sort this out, was it an asura mesmer?

At least PVE’rs have got a taste of how Anet trolls the wuv wuv community.
