Guild Wars 2

The problem here is different maps are separated and the players capable of going into a map is limited; so even if you have a global team chat, it may not necessarily mean aid will come.

To make your suggestion work, all 4 maps must become one big map. Else, team chat is good as it is.

However, having map and team makes either redundant, since the enemy team can’t read your chat anyway. Haha.

This is a nice and fresh idea, which reminds me of a matchmaking system. Very very nice.

Cool beans. Aren’t we all mischievous. Cheers cheers. ^——^ time to prove your mettle in the battle field on the next round. Weee.

Each class has an important part to play, however, not everyone has yet to imagine a way to implement them in a team since it isn’t easy to suggest characters to members, or players are willing to gamble with something new.

That being said, guardian is a stellar choice, but if you like flashy stuff, elementalist is the way to go. ;3

Hammer – Berserker/Valkyrie – sigil of force/paralization/fire

Sword/warhorn – knights or pvt or cavalier – sigil of bloodlust on sword and sigil of energy or hydromancy on warhorn.

Armor – PVT/Cavalier/Knights/cleric – goal is at least 3k armor total with trait and w/o food buffs. So, you can mix this up. Why cleric? warhorn blast = heal allies based on your healing power and not of the one who casts waterfields. But I do recommend knights gear.

Runes of melandru or soldier. Melandru with lemongrass is very good. But soldier adds that niche where your fgj takes away conditions.

The aim is to be a buff machine, which is to spam your 5 warhorn at the enemy/fgj and sigil of rage (balance stance depending on your need and endure pain) to take advantage of empowered.

But rather than spamming all your skills at once, time it when you actually need to use them; so you don’t waste skills unnecessarily.

The usual way to go about it is to cast skill 4 – for speed, leap into your enemy, cast skill 5 to weaken them, and then switch to your hammer – taking advantage of fast hands and gaining some might. casting your signet of rage/fgj, skill 3 hammer, normal attack to see if your hitting your opponent, then skill 2/4 and f1.

That 5 points in reckless dodge allows you to damage your enemies while dodging – pretty cool aoe.

As for images 4-5

Instead of warhorn, you’re using a shield. Same sigils used.

However, instead of spiked armor, you’ll be using cleansing ire to redure conditions in addition with lemon grass, and melandru runes.

Empowered allies and inspiring banners instead of empowered and quickbreading; so you’ll have stable power base which assists you and your allies, as well as fast casting battle standard.

Warrior’s sprint instead of signet mastery; so you can still run fast.

And Healing surge instead of healing signet.

Reason for the utilities is to take advantage of stun breakers as well as condition removal.

Healing signet will allow you a burst of heal in case of need. And battle standard to revive your allies or the lord.

I use both builds interchangeable to break the ice, and I’ve found both equally good or at par with each other. The only thing you need to keep in mind is, which weapon set you prefer to use and master first.

For trinkets – pvt/cavalier/valkyrie/berserker. It’s pretty much up to your taste as long as you have 3k minimum armor.

A very small and short point of view from our SEA/OCX timezone in TC.

TY for the matchup BG and SOR. Sor wins this week.

if you find stun duration a problem lotus root is good food to counter it. -40% stun duration.

Weeeee buy my crafts!!!!

The game is 24/7 and has a 1 week interval. Pacing yourself if you have the coverage is the way to win.

Keep it up guys. >3<

O.o;; superior ballistas, your zerg, and the result is a dead grub. Why oh why the QQ over something you can kill fast.

Insert old gw1 pvp mode into gw2. It would be fun.

I’m done for the day – did my ritual – world boss – crafting. See you guys later when wvw is up.

guard killer guard lleach and defense against sieges – things you’ll want to get with your laurel if it’s up as well as one point per repair build ans upply mastery

<3 win. Then you level your wxp normally for your needs.

Alts are now viable again if this comes to life. <3 AND MY GUARDIAN WILL BE A COMMANDER WEE.

it doesnt make alts viable

it just lets you invest more in your characters

For me it does. And I do invest in all my characters. But I’d prefer wxp to be account spread rather than soul spread.

^______________^

ahahaha

For leagues to work, it must be balanced or moving towards that direction over time. ;3

That being said I can’t wait for today’s update.

The four kings

1. guardian
2. ele
3. necro
4. and warrior

if your gameplay is wvw. and those 4 are also viable and good in pve.

A small moment in time. Hi BG and Sor. Hail TC, keep up the fights.

A small moment in time. Hi BG and Sor. Hail TC, keep up the fights.

Guild versus Guild or Guild Wars is always fun to watch, especially when the server’s PPT is low, and also a morale booster if your team wins.

The solution is simply to take it quick or defend/react fast. Use superior sieges and speed builds.

The OP probably wants it easy to take stuff. But making it as the OP suggest will ultimately put servers with lower population in a bigger bind than at the moment.

It’s not supposed to be easy to take stuff when heavily defended. One must use at least a simple tactic to win besides numbers.

However, another point of view is if you have little number and the opposing force has lots of banner specked warriors, it will truly be a pain when your hard work turns into a slaughter house when one warrior banners the lord, tanks for 10 s, and the zerg arrives to wipe the infiltration team.

Play what you like; so you have no one to blame by making the choice. But I’m willing to get blamed for choosing a guardian or warrior.

A large PK instance. Without it, gw2 will not be as good as it is. Not withstanding the ppt fights for those who care.

TC, where are your roamers? :’(

@bg bl.

blobing as 10 while roaming doesnt count!

0.0;; 10 is like custom pvp numbers.

Shifty.4985:

TC, where are your roamers? :’(

@bg bl.

o.o;;

Group into 15, have your leads do something like an objective – profit – small groups, effective point takers, but if you need to defend, simply group up again.

. it’s just mere discipline.

map chat is awesome. you can turn these off also by unclicking map chat from your chat bar. just explore your game screen; so threads like this will no need no posting.

GVG started when servers with greater population fought those with lesser ones. In the interest of gentlemen sportmanship, guilds fought each other head on instead of points since one party already cannot fight back. (these things started at the t8 servers)

It is a duel of sorts which became popular and well loved by most if not all WVW guilds.

For GVG enthusiasts and players it is a serious thing. Rules are fair, numbers are similar, builds deviate of course but is always good fun.

Since most of us, like me mainplay in wvw, it’s what we really look forward to. Seeing our hero guilds battling other server guilds and hoping for that win.

It came to the point since we already forgo what PPT is, and just played for fun, GVG became the best thing in WVW, and the maps became simply that, a map to do gvg.

It is also a good means to gauge enemy teams and learn new tactics. We made allies who would either transfer to us or we’d transfer to them.

In the old days two guys fight and then become friends.

Felt like a magic missile earlier when running with Fist in BG BL. Was fun.

^.^ Some TC stuff videos I’m making. Hope you join us for the leagues. Good luck Sor and BG. Go tc.

:3 I’m glad they apologized. That’s a step in the right direction. ^_^

Spira.4578:

Ahm, ok so i checked the vid and i can see the amount of insulting – coming from the players – starting with “just let the kittenes in the middle die” and continuing by calling him a kitten and telling him to play somewhere else.
Once again – you were insulting him because he wasn’t playing the game based on your rules.

I was working in an ISP center in the past and I must say it.. You people are the kind of ppl that the whole company laughs at.

Here we go again, someone who cant see the underlying issue. I have one thing for you to picture though, how are THEY supposed to play the game when the DEVs implement a crappy matchmaking system that resulted in them steamrolling their opponents?

It’s not about being the best, it’s about doing the best you can do in any given situations – if you didn’t learn that in your life then i don’t have anything else to say to you

The irony here, they’re doing the best they can given in the situation at hand.

GVG’s is also one of the best ways to make new friends among players, which shows respect and professionalism in and outside of GW2.

No one recognizes that guy who’s good at manning the ac’s. Or that group who pvd’s. Or that server who blobs. Most are negative reactions from the opposing team, but when you’re actually skilled in group combat, players will cheer for you.

It’s free marketing. Many will wish to participate and be a legend in their own way.

Gw2 spread because of gvg videos in youtube.

Lesson here is, be prudent and think before acting because there is always someone recording and watching you.

Phoebe Ascension.8437:

12 hours ago devon was here. wonder if he’s here now, since still not locked.

Btw nice promo video for TC Sovereign XD GL with leagues.

Thanks.

I try to do my part for my server, and for gw2. ^.^

I’m sure TC will be a force to be reckoned with.

Those are 1000$ worth of ideas given by loyal gamers for free.

Jyeoi.6027:

SOMEABODEE GONNA GETTA HURT REAAAAL BAD!!!

lol. But seriously, [TE] is not a GvG guild cmon. They are pure hardcore WvW. It’s just the matchup was so boring they decided to practice their group synergy in a GvG.

The aim was to improve their teamwork and co-ordination in battle, not to glorify their guild in a GvG.

Pls stay focused on the topic. ANET interfered…

Not only that, they’re enjoying the game.

Titan.3472:

BG stomp you all and we have little to no GvG guilds so stop lieing yourself kids. GvG is Newbies and Beginners mode, end of story.
Much love. XD

Sor’s currently stomping BG. I’m grateful for one of your commanders, but I’m making sure you guys are going second this week.

Titan.3472:

BTW Who can interfere in a game mode that doesn’t officially exist nor have any legitimation. There is no such thing involved. Your complains is another thing that will make you look bad to all others again: Another lame thread about GvG. Go spvp to check really if you are so skilled… YOU CAN ALSO RENT AN ARENA BUT PAY FOR IT.

This is what I do sadly. WVW is kind of dead at the moment, and has little to no appeal.

I go from wvw – 5 minutes, then play in spvp and kill every single thing I see with no skill.

spvp cannot compare to wvw in terms of mechanics with possible combination of food gear and teamwork. 15v15 is the best gvg mode there is. And I’m a defensive PPT commander (used to be, now just your random dailies guy).
(i seldom if ever do gvg’s except when i cheer for my guild mates of whom ensure the ppt at sea time of my server, but now they seldom do go to wvw because it’s boring)

Junkpile.7439:

Would be hilarious see www without GvG people. Two zone blobs would run around map and PvD.

Probably players just running to towers with their acs, and once the land is gone. Log off for the day.

Titan.3472:

Anet can ban you all anyway chinese market is open, Anet doesn’t care to hold players that don’t respect game design as it has been intended, like you would tell Anet employee I don’t care of all work that has been done here nor I respect it. WvW have to stay clean from GvG people. XD

Don’t speak for anet, you’re giving them a worse reputation than they already do have.

Server councils know this well, especially in good tiers with stable communities – you make COMPROMISES to your players; so they can do their thing, be it gvg, group roaming, ppt, because you want that community to stay in your server. Else, they will leave for a different world of whom will cater their needs.

There is a deeper working behind the lines of competitive WVW (at least when it was still competitive).

It’s not just if a, then b. else, c. Not d.

The best defenders of a bl are those who do GVG since they actually have skill to fight bigger numbers of whom just rely on very limited tactics.

Open field fighting – gvgs- are a means to train these other than guild raids.

Strategically and tactically – gvg’s are the basics of what wvw is.

22:00 min onward, the truth of Anet dev

WOW, the guy is freaking joke, violating his game mode? Turning on his tag? Why is he acting like he is still in primary school?

What a joke.

primary school kids play good. this is insulting to primary school gamers.

Anet’s good reputation is at stake here. :/ Wish their employees would fix the bugs and do their jobs rather than disrupting their customers from playing the game.

huh? I am sorry but I see a dev playing the game as intended.

You GvG kids are way too arrogant, take your bikes and go play outside please and leave us play WvW…

That GvG Community LOL

I feel embarrassed for this post. I used to command in Deso 6 months ago. This wasn’t the community I left. :/

Because I have a different opinion and I like WvW how it is?

And I dislike GvG because they are just bad players who cannot play Spvp.

Suggestion: Add a new feature for WvW

Right Click : Report player for GvG.

Your opinion as a player I can respect. You’re free to think as you do. ^.^

I would have fired that guy.

Heres is the proof asked for before on the Anet dev attempting to stop a GvG. Please discuss Tier 1 and 2 servers

What’s there to discuss? A few months back there was a commander on Blackgate with an Anet tag that purposely lost us Stonemist on a reset night, declared ‘my work here is done’ and promptly logged out. One person with that symbol does not reflect how the company as a whole operates.

EDIT: It also does not mean they are a developer. Just an ArenaNET employee.

That symbol is the representation of the company.

In the business world, being an employee represents the whole company. Every management executive knows that.

Oh yeah, meeting in wvw again. haha
