Guild Wars 2

What goes up must come down. A foolish man builds his house on sand. Etc etc.

Yes I had to do a double take when I saw EVOH in red names. When did you all leave?

Legion.1569:

I dont know if im less impressed with Maguma and FA’s blobbing groups or with their small man, because both are fairly atrocious.

Kinda disappointing. Are all higher tier servers this bad or are these two the exception?

Oh we got a hero here.

And what server did you formerly call home my friend?

Summary of this weeks matchup.

Gold!

Oh my lord that’s too good.

How did u get a box?

I can see that english is not your fist language from the errors in the translation program you are using, but I will provide you with a link to many good builds available for people interested in playing a necro in wvw.

Ya uh, I also like, spent alot of money on siege and stuff last night. Like 10g worth. Please refund thank you.

You sir are looking for a warrior or an elementalist.

When you zerg dive, what are your stats if I may ask? Ive been experimenting with a grenade-eg-rocket boot build which a former guildie got me started on and am sitting at almost 3200 armor with tons of protection uptime and 3300 attack.

But I would love to hear what you’ve been trying OP (and others).

When I first levelled a guard, I was dissapointed in the lack of mobility compared to my warrior. There are some nice leaps/teleports, but guardian is probably on par with necro and mesmer when it comes to being “slow” with regards to catching certain other professions.

I’ve come to accept that this is just the design philosophy of the class. Guardians are woderful front line zerg units, and point defenders, but are not meant to be that mobile.

I dont think anet will make this any different soon, but I do wish they worked on the top two trait-lines and brought them in line with the last three so that there could be more of a choice with regards to builds.

Sorry fellas I’ve only just started world 3 is world 4 not available at this time?

Is it confirmed that SAB will return later?

No but I dont think nubs with tags lead what look to be guild roams.

I dont usually call out guilds in the forums, but if I never see GH again it will be too soon. Zoomhacks and arrowcarts. How someone can find that fun I will never know. Why bother gearing/levelling toons if all you want to do is zoomhack with siege?

GH is open recruited pvx casual guild, of course they’re going to have cheaters and baddies, no need to generalize the whole guild

Don’t really know what you’re talking about I saw commander tags doing it, not noobs.

Same here started sab and it’s quite fun.

Well this thread caught fire rather suddenly.

Steelo.4597:

Thieves with full ascended and using all stackable power buffs from sigils, wvw masteries and whatever (orbs >.<) – hit kitten hard. Because of their stealth mechanism they can go full out damage and still get out of anything. the class has been considered broken for a long time, yet the devs did nothing about it – 4 seconds reveal after attacking is their solution – so you have 4 seconds to kill the thief (while he can dodge / stunbreak at will) or he will reset the fight, its just – great design! The devs totally know what they are doing, thats why there is a very livid competitive scene in gw2. cough cough sorry about the sarcasm, just move on and find your peace in blaming the lamest assassin design a popular game has ever seen in history.

Pretty much this. Actually summed it up very well I think.

New to necro. My biggest complaint isnt necassarily lack of vigor or evade or block since deathshroud is IMO better than most of those in many situations, but the lack of stability. Coming from a warrior main getting knocked around so much will take some getting use to.

Er I woudnt mind trying to kill this thing. Invite please and thanks.

Brother, they do NOT want gvgs. End of story. I think you need to come to this realization. They put all their eggs into the pvp basket and adjustments to facilitate gvgs are tantamount to admitting pvp is a lame duck (which it is).

Some good suggestions, but you’re wasting your time is all.

If we can find the correct reciple of energy drinks and methamphetamines to keep Xushin up 24hrs a day, Mag would have the best coverage in the game.

I think it would be fine if when we switched into grenade kit the template was always active instead of having to click twice, once to bring up the template and another to throw.

I don’t understand why people seem to think ‘leagues’ are different than anything in the game right now but whatever.

The only new thing in wvw will be the bloodlust buff and that might very well ruin wvw.

Its becoming harder and harder for NA folks to bring themselves into wvw lately with the stagnant situation, but I always wonder what motivates these asian players from staying on during the hours they do considering there is nothing around.

It’s really only SoS that has a huge night time population without being in t1/t2 (probably more t2 size), but that still means there’s 7 servers. Short of a mass exodus of one of them, there’ll always be one out of place.

If the rolls go bad, then DB/FA’s night time also has a dull week.

That actually doesnt answer the question. I was asking an oceanic player to chime in and explain what keeps them coming back to wvw considering the servers SoS draws dont have people on when they’re zerging.

Doomdesire.9365:

Because other games has counterplay to it, then GW2 should have it too? Why do you use that logic? Not trolling, just curious.

How old are you?

Well in case anet has any doubts, GW2 appears to be entering a crucial period a mere year after its release with both its competitive communities in crisis.

Really the only time I pvp anymore is to kinda get a feel for new builds. I say kinda because of course it can never be the same as in wvw.

Other than that I have no more interest in it. I think I’m lvl 34 or something. For all the reasons mentioned above and the running to and frow away from fights which sacrx mentioned annoys me. Just jumping into a hotjoin is annoying as hell. 8 people all moving together. Last match I played, I just watched what people were doing. Enemy groups running past one another to cap control points like their real lives depended on it. Just shaking my head.

To be honest I think pvp in its current form is dead. Besides, I already play a game mode which gives me nothing but repair and food costs with little return; wvw.

I’m not wading into the gvg controversy Frizz. Quite frankly I dont know why there is one. This game is called Guild Wars is it not? I find it more amusing and than anything that no form of actual guild wars exists in this game.

But what Sacrx said regarding a select group of pvp interests me and I just wish to hear anets response is all.

With all due respect, blind spamming aoe is not a strategy. Its a dice roll.

I have no issues with stealth per say, but its the combination of it being a great defensive utility as well as an offensive one which kinda ticks me off.

Me personally, I believe in the risk-reward philosophy of such things. Take the ubiquitous 100b for example. Powerful ability if seen all the way through the channel. To balance this, it roots the player, and usually requires the assistance of either the other weapon set or 1 or more utilities to land. As such, it is fairly balanced in this regard.

Things like blinking and stealth while cool in practice, don’t subscribe to this risk-reward formula. It just doesn’t.

The fact that many of these blinks/stealths exist on weapon abilities is all the more mind boggling to me.

But then again, apparently it was never the intention to balance this game 1v1 from the get-go according to anet, so l2p.

DavyMcB.1603:

In forum you’ll only hear thieves crying. In the real game play you will always see them gloating.

That is very true. On here it seems thieves are the hated class. In competive play though many of them are the “come at me bro” types.

Yes his video was…eye opening indeed.

I specifically want to hear about why a select group of spvp players are the ones crafting the experience of the multitude. Early access to build/profession changes etc. Its as if anet wants to artificially create superstars for their esports league.

I’m not surprised at all most of them managed to get on the same team in solo q when it came out. Need to make top of those leaderboards. Get the name out there.

Oh well.

Necros have very little access to stability.

Healing shout warriors will be happy.
Also, baba booey.

Hi Anet. I dont own a legendary weapon but I did have an idea on how you might improve them for those that do.

In the recent patch you gave the ability to players to be able to change the stats on their legendary weapons. This saved people having to transmute more appropriate stats.

What about being able to do the same with sigils? If you slot a particular sigil, it can be considered ‘banked’, and you can swap out sigils as you wish, provided you’ve bought and equipped a particular sigil you want to use. Most of the time people have different kinds of the same weapon for precisely this reason.

Just something which I think would make legendary weapons that much more…legendary.

EDIT Just saw them. They look OK I guess…. Nothing special though.

FA BL outside of mag spawn was a blast. Great maneuvering on all sides.

Shout out to the [Awe] group at our spawn in mag. Respect. I like the way you play the game.

Guys mag has a forum where we can discuss this.

ParaldaWind.4523:

Pretty decent fights tonight on TC bl, hope to have some more this week.

Yes that one fight at the swc/switchback was fantastic. TC pincer was thrawted with some great manuevering, then kitten and PYRO turned the tables on a very sizeable TC force and made them the bologna in a mag special sandwich.

Thanks for the fights tonight.

You know Mag has an AON now.. Ran into them tonight in EBG, thought they were you for a sec till I targeted one.. I was sad.

Anubis of something, right? That guild has been on Mag for as long as I can remember. But yeah, they’re primarily a pve guild.

[AON]= Anunnaki Of Nibiru.

You have no idea how jealous I am reading this thread.

Hope to have a matchup like this one in the near future.

The start of the ‘RP walk for Peace’ around stomemist.

Shame on you lot who ruined it.

Show us YUMM goes on vacation from wvw because SoR and BG pushed their kitten in.

Hey guys! If you’re a member/leader of The Shadow Legion [TSL], Seraphim Martyrs [BURN], Rethesis [RE], Myrmidon Elite [ME], or Zero Negative [ZN], I’ve sent a challenge to you guys for a GvG in gw2gvg.com! Please contact Nateralus/Slaughtis Ironwar or W Rod if you want to reschedule the time. up

For anyone else that wants to challenge Night Shift [NS] into a GvG, please do so in http://www.gw2gvg.com/ and we’ll be looking forward to it! Let’s have some fun! (:

Rip ME

That’s one loss you’re not getting back.

Still here bro

Looks like TC is back after a 2 week vacation from wvw because SoR and BG hurt their feelings.

Its quite simple. If a team starts down a player, or if a player leaves before a team has reached the halfway point mark, then the players on said team do not take a loss.

Whoa whoa wait a second here.
Eles can use staves?
