Guild Wars 2

Morrigan.2809:

Especially after the farm fest you all got rich on ;P

I don’t play trash content like that.

If you do, … send me your zombie-money.

Why hasn’t anyone mentioned april? Why couldn’t it be april?

They look rather boring. Not creative at all.

In my opinion they should be in character creation. It’s ridiculous that you have to pay extra to get one hairstyle on a new character. I agree with paying for changing the hair of an existing character.

I love how so many people are exaggerating. Trinity does not mean HARD trinity… it can take a range of varieties, the one more tolerating, the other more strict. Light trinities are obviously a LOT better than kittenes, but they’re also better than GW2 combat system that is a DPS-only-ty.

Might be an explanation: i’m a pvp player mostly. World vs. World and TPvP are about the only engaging content in the game for me at the moment. Dungeons were fun the first 10 times per path, but after that… ughh. xD

An expansion… that’s what I want.

To be honest, by the time you reach level 30, you have all the knowledge of your class you require. And that’s when it gets boooooring. I always end up abandoning the lowbie for a couple of weeks/months for my high levels, then dumping a load of money earned in PvE into crafting and getting them 80 in 2-3 days.

Coming from someone with 8-9 (forgot the exact number) of 80s.

Maybe the thing we need is simply insta-level 80 in WvW (as it works in SPvP) and no upscaling bull kitten.

What’s underworld?

Can you send us some ballistas in Vabbi?

Apocalypse. 15 charr-acters

Dat Dench Blade.9501:

Team KYSA from Fissure of Woe

The enemy reveals himself… greetings from Vabbi.

This combat system is pretty weak and does not require a lot of personal skill, especially in WvW and PvE. In TPvP (Hotjoin is a farmfest) there’s some personal skill required.

Immolator.5640:

It’s definitely not just because I’m lazy, but can we get some kind of WvW based exchange for Tomes of Knowledge? sPvP gets glory, PvE gets running around Lion’s Arch in circles constantly, we don’t have any.

What are your opinions?

Finally, no more pve for leveling.

quercus.9261:

I hit them with my hammer, they hit me back with their hammer, everyone is a heavy wailing away with a hammer. Every time I die it is six guys with hammers and maybe a meteor shower. It has been weeks since I got hit with a mind wrack or even a backstab. I see a blurred frenzy or hip shot on my log and I get all nostalgic.

I am playing a shout heals hammer warrior because you are either on the hammer train or under it.

Hahah. That’s why this game mode is broken. Hammer trains with necros and elementalists to top the damage.

MANY EPICCCCC. MUCH SKILLS! VERY WOW!

From easiest to worst to fight:

Easy to fight:

• Ranger: not a lot good rangers about, so most rangers are free loot
• Warrior: while a lot of people think warriors OP, they’re very easy to counter if you are an adept warrior yourself
• Necro: usually free kills cause most run a zerg-roflstomp build

Okay to fight:

• Guardians: though tanky most are not too risky to fight
• Elementalists: are fine to fight, not OP but not weak either

Annoying to fight:

• Engineer: depends… the perplexity engineers I just avoid, no point fighting them
• Mesmers: avoid altogether
• Thieves: avoid altogether if they run d/p, kill them otherwise

I’m stunned. o-o

In one of my old guilds we used to do a couple of pretty nice things:

• Naked races across a map
• Make a new character and go level 2 in fractal (AWWW YEAAAH)
• Tournaments in PvP (like not the silly things anet give us but elimination tournaments in our own guild server)
• 5v5 matches also in PvP
• Role-playing with the guild
• Hide and seek
• and much more xD

I think we should get some tools for doing stuff though.

Sorte.8431:

Join us!

We know how to kill the Ice Wurm!

Tell me I’m not watching what I think I am.

^source… I think it’s more like 50/50.

50% likes small groups and guild groups

50% likes pugging along in a blob

The perfect motivation. You don’t want to be trolled by a Vabbi thief, cause y’know!

^gold

This guy is right you know…
#conspiracytheorieswhereyoudidn’texpectthem

^can be vastly improved?

Yeah I agree actually. Yesterday we slipped inside Stonemist (with about 5) and randomly killed off stragglers from 1 enemy zerg that invaded SM being defended by the other. No-one payed attention to us, cause they were too busy catapulting walls. xD

Sure it’s fun to get free loot, but people actually liking to PvD more than PvP?

We have a night guild in vabbi.

Very much doubt we will see a new race/class anytime soon. A true shame.

“GW1 was a all instance game”

And why are the bosses in dungeons sooooooo lame? They’re instances, amirite?

Tyler Chapman.1832:

This build is so fun, it should certainly shake things up a bit.

Crazy changes are crazy:P

#elepocalype

Let the elements guide you

You mean new meta is ele. xD

Since transfers will be free one week before the 2nd Season begins… Vabbi can use your manpower! It’s currently the lowest server on EU (rank 29) but trying hard to get better. Most of our guilds are just in trouble with low numbers, but they have all the strategic insight and skill they need

Help us out! Join us now and bring Vabbi to the top!

WvW Guilds in Vabbi you can join:

• [TNT] – The Nobel Titans
• [Now] – Fear No Darkness
• Joe -> PIZZA
• …
  (please alert if your guild is open to recruitment)

Attention: we’re not looking for 50+ member guilds. They don’t fit in Vabbi’s attitude and community. Small groups are more than welcome as well as roamers!

Interested? Come check us out at the Vabbi Community Website.

I don’t understand why people think it will kill wvw.

ESO won’t kill WvW, WvW is doing a nice job of killing itself.

Unfortunately the Developers of GW2 care too much about PVE and making $$ than they do about the PVP side of the game “Epic World Battles” was one of the BIG selling points of this game yet they are NOT very EPIC at all.

The skill lag is EPIC.
The bugs are EPIC.
The imbalance is EPIC
The Hacking and Exploits are EPIC.

^like that indeed

They Fought As Legends [MYTH] is a brand new gaming community founded by former members of a hardcore WvW guild on Vabbi.

Unlike other guilds, we are not bound to Guild Wars 2 and will not disappear out of your life once people stop playing Guild Wars 2. Our members are free to play ANY game they want, and suggest it to others on our Community Website!

If you want a stable, long-term community to play games with, [MYTH] is the thing for you!

Recruiting for:

• Elder Scrolls Online
• Everquest Next and Landmark
• Guild Wars 2 (restricted to Vabbi)

Out of my humble friend’s list 3 people within top 1000. Five other people who have achieved a win/loss on team arena within the week.

Well main problem of most people is lack of game modes I think. All comes down to condi/bunkering atm. If they don’t do anything in that direction, spvp is doomed.

When will SPvP close it’s doors?

I thought elder scrolls wvw was pretty bad. Wouldnt pay 15 bucks a month for it when gw2 is free after u buy the game.

Someone used the analogy already…

Some people will pay a subscription for playing AvA.
Zero people would ever pay a subscription for playing WvW.

I think that’s true.

That does not square with the fact that lots of people put money into Guild Wars 2 regularly that are WvW players.

Haven’t met those yet… oh wait you mean pugs?

Baels.3469:

The response to this CDI seems underwhelming compared to not only previous WvW CDI’s, but also other currently active CDI’s.

I’m not being snarky, but to an extent, I think this is reflective of the lack of attention we have received as World versus World players.

Sorry but could you explain what happened to the previous CDI threads???

• Server Balance: “Oh hey guys, it’s actually working as intended”
• Commander: “What about we make this icon super awesome big and visible for the player himself”

Sure… that was exactly what we needed…

Cause ESO is a more than realistic threat for WvW, biggest one ever, and I can’t say the WvW population is very happy with GW2.

Nyel.1843:

GW2 is a mediocre trash game.

The playstyle is awful. The combat is like B&S but only 10 times slower. And the skill system is quite awful, you can’t come up with any tactical component due to the fact that the skill system is shallow, boring and completely uninspired.

The game is hyped into heaven and has got the GW-brand, but many ppl will realize at least one month of playing, how awful the game is in the end and they all will come back.

Where B&S has heart and polish, GW2 lacks both. Maybe 1-2 months this game will be a “danger” because of the “WOW ITS NEW” factor. After that it will take the SW:TOR path into oblivion.

Look, I can make up things too. Fixed your post to point out how generic it is.

Fits better on GW2 than on ESO xD

2015 lol.

Thobek.1730:

expansion sized patch? yeah I doubt it. More like balance tweaks etc, not a whole lot of new content.

Oh ESO why do you have to be a p2p game?!

Maybe because the developers are convinced that their product is good enough to keep many people paying a fee for the content they enjoy.

Ask yourself, where would GW2 be, if they asked for a sub. Would anyone pay for the content we get?

Well no, because GW2 content since launch was 5% QoL improvements and 95% filler content.

I’m doubtful about ESO as a subscription game though, think many will buy, rush through content and stop paying.

Obviously people are giving up on this game. It needs an expansion badly.

Living story has the same “quality” of the free monthly patches we get in about every other game on the market, adding near nothing to the game itself and being filler content itself.

But contrary to GW2, those other games also bring expansions (either paid or free), with new features, not the same old, same old, over and over again, recycled so it looks ‘new’.

This game would actually be better without the living story: no crappy achievement grind, no money beating out of the gem store (look at Scarlet shoulders and gauntlets LOL).

Trust me numbers is but a illusion.

Im on piken wiping 70man blob with 25ppl.

Ofcourse it is a elite guild group but still.
Just keep practising,

However for public commanding numbers a recommended, so yes u should look for numbers, but u shouldnt prioitise it over training

You don’t happen to be ObV? Got 2 friends there xD

Come come UW… you still have more people than Vabbi.

New YOLO guild recruiting for Vabbi, anyone from other servers interested to come over when transfers go free… contact Dj Wedgy or Vael Icarium in-game. Thanks!

A big problem I see with this system is that servers that aren’t good enough to win in one league will try to keep their score down in order to get into a lower (silver/bronze), for a guaranteed first place.
