CharlieWaffles.1509:

Score update 120k JQ 115 SoR 112 SoS Sos is currently making a push 325 sor 225 jq 145 sor

The end of that doesn’t make much sense, or maybe it’s just me =(

Ya… you sound like you feel like JQ is being particularly victimized by this.
Don’t kid yourself =D

purpleskies.3274:

I really hate the thieves burst, even speced and geared defensively they can kill you with an opener in about 1.5 seconds, which is ridiculous. In a perfect situation (I’m not fighting someone else, nothing is on CD ect) I can counter them, but things are rarely perfect in WvW.

I for one would really like the damage of C&D and mug reduced (or at least put trait in a higher tier for specing).
I also think it is ridiculous that a missed, blinded, ect attack doesn’t break stealth. If you missed you should have to pay for the mistake, not be given a second chance.

I don’t agree really, they can kill glass characters with burst.
My guardian since he hit level 80, i cannot remember ever losing a 1v1 fight to thief.
Warrior can be trickier, however I just WAY more hp and some more armor and I hit hard as hell too.
I feel the most annoying part about fighting thieves and even some mesmers is the constant target breaking that happens. I don’t mind some but the rate it’s done is just maddening sometimes =P

transtemporal.2158:

Imagine if a guardian found a way to get perma-retaliation by comboing off his own fields. How quickly do you think that would be fixed?

umm…ya… good thing that can’t happen…

All this coverage talk like it’s everyone who is on JQ’s fault they have people in the EU prime time and we have little =D
The match up is pretty good, the population caps being lowered are kinda altering wvw a bit, sure it’s screwing over SoR NA, SoS Oceanics and JQ EU’s however they are probably all running away with the score less because of it.
The downside is a lot of the large organized guilds are running less than half strength because of this.
I haven’t read a post of anet denying they lowered the wvw population cap yet, just responding they acknowledge the queue is bugged and not a line.

Fight in EB looks good
Don’t see JQ doing much there >=P

MarMaster.6241:

This is really funny. ArenaNet is trolling us. Need that new math, stat!

My god… Sorrow’s Furnace has +670 right now and Eredon Terrace has +5.

Aye!!! Dem’ Sorrow’s Furnace be monsters!!!

Barab.9016:

hehe maybe we can manipulate the new glicko system to permanently all three stay in t4.

Pretty sure that site is whacked still and wouldn’t worry about it’s predictions.
I agree, I really couldn’t care what tier we in, as long as we have THESE servers there.
Of course one poor kitten would eventually come crawling in and ruin it all =*(

Weekends over, we have a coverage hole we already knew about becomes more visible.
Doesn’t change much, so when ya log in the JQ keep walls are a little thicker, just throw down extra catas and call it good.
Laugh it off stupid, it’s a game =P

I like the scoreboard, people put too much into it though.
SoR has really carried the attitude of just rocking it out when your on, kitten it when your off. We haven’t really had any coverage other than NA until recently and it got us to tier 2 and we held our spot for a long time with it.
We would win the weekend, win NA primetime and lose the matchup.
Can’t be helped, however we made sure to give em hell when we got on.

Ashlov.3819:

Here’s hoping the scores stay this tight all week. But methinks that won’t be the case.

Screw the scores, just have fun fighting while we have a good match up.

uhhh ohhh I see a change in the winds in this match up thread…
Must be the trolls waking…

LieutenantGoogle.7326:

Near naked bodies to show our inability to repair armor due to siege costs ;-;

Well something had to give, plus gives us an excuse to show off our bad kitten spray on abs.
/flex

Would be nice to see some more signatures here to see what guild everyone is representing =D

Unsure, they have made a couple posts on it claiming they don’t see anything wrong, maybe that is their final answer =P

Wait… warriors and guardians are underpowered?
OMG I better reroll ele or mesmer!
lawl

In wvw every class has a build that works well, some a little more than others.
If you’re running small group or doing solo roaming some class excel better than others however nothing in the game rewards 1v1 skill other than smack talking rites. =P

Sins Vorkag.5218:

iCryptik.1496:

Aye!

TC be full o’ plenty o’ pirates ‘dat be tough as nails and takin ’da enemy’s wenches ’fer our own.

Arrr! Ye lubs dun know who ye be messin’ wit! We be not like tha other RPers o’ TC as we be ‘n WvW spittin’, cursin’ ye saltless lubbers, ‘n collectin’ booty. Occasionally we be ‘n tha taverns spendin’ yer coins o’ wenches ’n rum!

(Anyways been loving this match up.. wish it could stay this way for a couple weeks)

I miss these guys.

ComeAndSee.1356:

SoS and SoR must have it easy this weekend on queues because we can hardly get half our guild members on the map (the other half being filled with militia or horrible commanders) and you guys are getting your monster zerg guilds cruise controlling around the map.

Rest assured everyone is experiencing this =P
The Rallians are putting up the good fight though and I am very proud.

Still waiting for this threat to turn into the 5th BL =P
I predicted it would be a meltdown by Sunday, while Sunday isn’t over yet, you trolls are disappointing me.

Dog.1472:

SoR’s enthusiasm is cute, but BG was the same way at first and they ended up losing out to JQ with half the points by the end of last reset. Let’s see if you guys can keep it up.

Probably not.
Nothing we aren’t use to though, I just hope people don’t come in here screaming when we get capped on off hours, everyone just needs to expect it and just do your best when your online. I usually stop watching the scores after Sunday since all bets on fair coverage go out the window anyways =P

Coldviper.6794:

If you say so. Apparently finding something silly is mad.

You’re funny.

edit: fixed before grammar police nab me.

Biglulu.3928:

Tarnished Coast’s golem army.

Because we can.

Dolyak Protector 9000.
Curious which is faster… a dolyak or a golem.

Coldviper.6794:

I’m more irritated with the queue I’m sitting in right now due to a crash from that silly culling abuse. I do find it funny because it is skilless. I die due to being unable to use any utilities to auto 1 attacks and people I cannot see. I enjoy good fights is all, these aren’t good fights they’re just a zerg taking turns running each other over.

I agree with you that the queues are kinda bust and that the skill cap is low.
I’d like to argue that there is a lot more to it than just zergs running into each other, which I think is fun to see who has to better built/trained army, but I feel we will just be stuck on disagreeing.
Also you said it’s funny three times, we get it but it just makes you sound mad.

Coldviper.6794:

Dunno what you think you’re trolling. But ok. Just pointing out that its funny how skilless wonders just have to run around abusing culling to get a kill and how they’re considered T1. It’s funny.

Wasn’t really trolling, was being silly and throwing out the obvious troll post that was going to happen anyways. I somewhat agree with you, but only somewhat.
WvW is a game of determination, patience and working together.
There IS a skill level, however it is much lower due to the mass combat, if you wish to prove how amazing you are as an individual there is always sPvP where individual skills is a larger component of the meta.
You say funny but you sound mad.

Coldviper.6794:

This game is just getting silly now. Everyone just running the same hammer trains with mass invis to abuse culling. On top of it basically dropping FPS and just locking abilities up. Becomes unplayable and you just lose to auto attacks.

Oh?
Ready for this?
Here comes the expected troll post….
Transfer low tier bro!!
Ta da!
Thank you thank you everyone really, I’ll be here all night.

Anet responded to the TC thread on this and set everything was working fine. =(
So not sure man. Ill like their thread with the mod post.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Queues-for-WvW-The-Official-Thread/first#post82369

Only just got to T1 this week, reset night queue were seriously bad, I have never experienced it this bad yet, think a lot of people were just excited and wanted to wvw for a change.
I was in EB for about 8 hours and the action never stopped. Trebs hitting sm from all directions, trebs from sm shooting all directions, Klovan, Wildcreek and Anz flipped constantly. We pushed red keep a couple times, couldn’t deliver though they had LOTS of siege in the lords room but they burned 1k keep supply to repair everything.
I dunno, was fun, fast paced, we were always moving.
The queue was a little nuts, but I really enjoy wvw, its really the only part of the game I like and wish to play with others that feel the same way which you see a lot less of in the lower tiers. They are there, just less, much less.

Bavragor.1043:

Lots of fun fighting in JQ bl tonight, really enjoying this match up.

Same in EB, I got in late but pretty much non stop fighting from all sides.
Not sure what will happen once I sleep, prolly will lose everything. =P

I really care less about what the scoreboard and more about the fights and tonight has been pretty awesome. Lets do it again tomorrow… =P

appledainty.8127:

I have a special gift for our lovely opponents from last week, Sanctum of Rall.

Thank you for joining us MOOSE DEEP!

omg… so funny

Finally got in.

Jeknar.6184:

That’s the stats for my mesmer level 35 with full greens… The stats on my armor are Vitality and toughness just as my traits. I don’t deal much damage (i’m not focused on that anyway), but i’m hard to kill.

Sure, at the rate you get karma in wvw at low levels you won’t be able to keep up with a full green set, which you should easily be able to if your doing lots of wvw and taking points.
They could easily ramp up lower level karma, or make the lower level greens cheaper, since every 10 levels in the next set, which makes your old set outdated very very quickly.

testpig.5018:

You are in long ques because you are in zerg servers.

My guild started in SoR.. then once it started going to high up in the ranks, the que times were about 6 hours long. It killed our guilds morale. So we jump ship down to a lower tier server, and love have no ques!

Tonight is the first time I met a q this long on SoR.
I think you might have been from another reality or your smoking something.

Jayne.9251:

What would be the point of ever levelling another toon to 80 then? I realize spvp does this, but honestly I think it’s fine the way it is. I’d rather have a player that has levelled his or her toon up to 80 and actually knows how to pay the class to help back the team up, than someone who gets super buffed and winds up wiping the group because they don’t know the class. This is especially critical in WvW.

Even if your amazing at your class, your still worthless at low levels because your damage is severely gimp, as well as your armor. Simply giving them more armor, or slightly better scaling with armor and damage wouldn’t be unreasonable. They would still be at a huge disadvantage but less of a liability to their server mates.

Knighthonor.4061:

When players are scaled in WvW, how about giving them 40 trait points, so scaled characters can have some better play style options.

This way the game is more fun for more people.

That would still barely close the gap, they should get scaled to pvt gear that is green at least. With the current set up getting low level rares is a waste since you outlevel them so quickly, it’s cheaper and easier to keep up to date with blues and some greens.
They are just such a liability right now in big fights, pretty much marks scaled players so you can kill them while your downed to rally =P
Running around wvw with 1600 armor is just stupid, my glass cannon thief has 2200 and hits 100x harder.

Hanging with SoR commanders in HoM

I can see the score, want to see the map =D

Kezorian.5107:

Some awesome fights at Astralholme on SoS BL!

quit teasing and post pics!!

Foghladha.2506:

Am I the only one that sees the HUGE note at the top of the rankings screen?

“About this site
At the end of this matchup, all ratings will be reseted (set to 1,500). ANet has not yet announced the math so the site will use the old formula and the ‘next matchup table’ may be innacurate.”

Pay attention to this part… it’s kinda important.

the ‘next matchup table’ may be innacurate."

The guy who runs http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA *DOES NOT HAVE THE NEW ALGORITHM. * Until he does nothing on that page should be taken to heart.

why dont people read anymore….. they teach us how to in kindergarten….

Thank you for telling us people something we already know.
If you read back, we were looking at it because the current ones listed would be really bad and we thought it was funny.

We good? You feel better/smarter now?

Also can we get a map update for those of us stuck in queue.

Magiofdeath.2745:

Next week’s matchups look hilarious at the moment – http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA. I know, this is not my tier’s thread, but thought I’d share because its kinda epic actually.

Ya looks like SoR and FA going to experience the wrath of HoD!!!
Arggh!!

Calae.1738:

WvW is extremely popular due to the rest of the game becoming stale .If theres anything that will keep this game alive is WvW.

WvW is Arenanet’s golden goose.

It’s also largely ignored too, last few major content updates had little to no wvw updates.

jazzllanna.1278:

Numbers at this stage in the game matter more than tactics. Hopefully that will be addressed.

If your on high pop servers though the numbers is less an issue and tactics, coordination and intel become VERY important.

skinnyb.5920:

You can’t just take high tier players and tactics down to a low tier server. You end up steamrolling every map and it ruins the fun for everyone.

I agree with this…
Plus the stacking of a single server in t1 pretty much makes everyone else in the top need to do something similar to compete.
Also free transfers are gone now, so fat chance on any moves =D

LieutenantGoogle.7326:

A SoS veteran guard attacked me when I was getting hit by a JQ warrior.
2v1 I tell you!!!!

Pic or it didn’t happen!
Drink!

Cat Amiss.9463:

lol i got in brojack but freaking gw2 blacked out in middle of a fight -.- SO BS!

lawl, yeah gonna try requeueing, hopefully I can get in tonight.

Yeah, I completely agree, T1-3 look pretty good for a change.
SBI may have to fall one more and Emry bay move up one.
This reset is happening at a really terrible time.

Conditional Love.8149:

Ok, so the the beginning of the beginning is done. What does everyone think of the match up so far? IMO SOR didn’t come out fighting fierce, but they a lot more organised. Zombiegate just kept throwing corpses at us :O

Also. cough 2v1 cough

xD

DRINK!!

Ya I feel that too, this is the worst queue we have run into yet, and I feel it will die down as the novelty of being T1 waivers. Most the wvw guilds got less than half of their team in, just saw Indo Xx and Purp Nurp in Heart of the Mist hanging out =P

This is the first week since release I didn’t make it in on reset night =*(

I’m way to classy for cheap beer.
That’s why I drink wine from a box.

99 bottles of wine?!

Boxes!!
99 boxes of wine!

I’m way to classy for cheap beer.
That’s why I drink wine from a box.

Kiltor.9362:

what happens if your one bottle down already?

I’d call that a slow start.

Rhyis.7058:

Why would you post a score without a ram showing? The hell are we teaching you scrubs?

Wait, do score update require both a ram and a salad? I think those are some really advanced techniques.

oh don’t worry we can probably get more advanced then that like 2 rams or maybe even 3!

Could we add a pig and have it get into a deathmatch with a salad using rams?
