Always Loyal
(edited by Sovereign.1093)
This is a simple shouts build with signets and healing. You can do damage, escape fast, dive into your opponent and cc them via gs 3 and 4, and then change to hammer to attack 3, 4, and f1, and easily change to gs again to repeat the process and hundred blades the downed.
Been using this for some time now and I rarely ever get killed unless my team does something too daring (Once to Thrice every game play of gw2).
Try it.
I have an extra axe which i use to stack bloodlust, but more often than not, this militia build does adequate damage and keeps the enemies on their toes. And a longbow for sieging the walls when necessary.

Simply people don’t know what they wish. And hardcore WVW want hard fights, but not everyone is hardcore, most are fairweather players. This is what I learned when people want something but don’t understand the consequence.
When was this patched to not see? Was it in a previous patch a long time ago?
more skins for the siege weapons would be nice. ;3
Something is wrong with the RNG if the matchup is measured this way because I doubt SOS and FA is enjoying fighting TC.
My apologies to those whom I spiked in WVW, just part of the game.
I was looking into the patch notes and didn’t see if we can see or not see on the enemy. And my guildmates says we can only see on our part but not the enemies’. I’d like to confirm.

TY DB and EB for a nice week. It was like a cute kitten. ;3
Maguuma and Sea of Sorrows,
Thanks for a wonderful week. ^,.,^
Oceanic presence then nice nice
SOS is doing good at the moment. Their SEA time presence is awesome.
where to get and how
Your options might be valkyrie/berserker ascended accessories.
Backpiece – fotm – can be upgraded to ascended. – cheep but takes time.
Backpiece – craftable – 70+g through mystic forge
Ascended amulet – only through laurels – there is only 1 berserker or valkerie ascende amu
Ascended rings – fotm – personal lvl 10 and above grants you 1 pristine – 10 of which can get you ring. or they drop from daily at personal lvl 10 or higher. You can only use 1 berserker or valkyrie with offensive slot and the other must be with defensive slot. You can’t use two rings with the same name.
Ascended earings – guildmission or laurels. Same as above, you cannot use two earing s with the same name, must be of 2 different names.
*cheers for mag and sos for fighting and winning something. ;3
*cheers tc for defending something
We’re not meant to survive solo. >3< except maybe in pve.
I love this dungeon and it is easy if you treat it like how you’d play fotm 40+ and above. You stack, to easily kill the mobs. You move together so that if your friend is downed, you can rally or sprint revive or heal. And take advantage of the cleric set – which maximizes heals/zerker trinkets – so you do good damge/or valkyrie. And melandru runes / food – 40 percent condition time really helps here.
It’s simply a learn to play issue not a must use a certain gear to win.
Thank you kn (WVW) guild for the opportunity to GVG with you guys.
I don’t get it. FA really wanted to fight TC last time. And now that they do and is about to end, all the negative talks are filling this forum like a plague.
Careful what you wish for?
Anyway, ty FA and K. both of You are awesome this week. Just like old times.
The last boss fight is easy, except for dodging the canons.
Fighting fritz- is mad. Haha, that was fun.
So… if friends had difficulty in this dungeon it is because of;
1. learn to play
2. bad items
3. no team work.
I love this dungeon. I wish fractals had more dungeons too.
This one is fun.
It is supposedly inside the place where they sell Lionguard cultural weapons but Mai Trin is not there yet.
I see. I thought my team did it wrong. Huhuh, I was like roaming around fort marriner looking for each bit of crany. >.< or wondering if because we didn’t blow up the airship due to not knowing where to put the cannon core since it didn’t have any clikable option. Just says – do nothing.
So, if mai is there, we can talk to here yeah?
P.s. If you’re the dulfy writer of gw2 guides. Keep it up man. Love your guides and I really like it – especially the fractal ones.
My team and I finished the dungeon. So, we now have the capture achievement. Where do we talk to Mia? Is it in LA or somewhere else?
FA/TC we hope we get a chance to fight you guys in a rematch of the old “Tier 2” soon! Hope you guys are having fun with KN!
:3 hehe, the old tier 2 was fa/tc/and kn the new tier 2 is fa/tc/and db.
i do miss your guys painfully patient way of taking our tc items. >3<
Just imagine – those out of no where siege placements .
.
Yey, FA is so many. This is becoming fun.
Keep it up guys. Kamusta sa mga brad DPS. You guys really zerged that one human(leax) and norn (me) at kn garison.
Stability ignores warding skills, and so does a well timed dodge. Just went through such in wvw just now.
hehe, i got away from that kn defense in water gate of gar. huhu, let us in, we just want to hug. ;3
So I’m taking that master of consecrations would be very useful and just swap out my last skill as needed and keep the shield ready thank you all very much for the input.
The main thing I am wondering now is my idea about knights gear, should I stick with the 3 pieces and hammer for agro or go all zerk?
Your gear is fine as is. I just resently changed to cleric – but from 1-48 i was knights and valkyrie. Since fotm – is toughness based, you should be fine.
But if you go pure berserker, you will have a hard time because the mobs are strong, and you will have like very low hp. So, it’s not advisable unless your team is very very good.
Since i mostly play pug games, i find knights/berserker/valkerie the best to finish it. Whereas cleric/berserker/valkyrie is a good alternative.
The above is what I use when things begin to become difficult. So i can spam shield and wall as the case need be.

we don’t know the changes yet; so until we it happens, we can only speculate. it might be or might not be what we think it is. but rest assured, warriors will always have a part to play in gw2.
Just warhorn = streamline <3
I run almost the same build as you except I have staff and septer focus as my main. And I have a great sword to pull the mobs depending on the situation. (i have all guardian weapons) But i use staff the most and then septer focus in all things. I just transfer weapons for variety.
This is what i run. from fotm 1 -48
I use ascended valkyrie for accessories – with 45 ar in total.

Thank you for your replies! Any stages in particular I should watch out for and specific skills that are a must for them?
You need wall of reflection for swam bloom berg. And shield in that stage. You don’t necessarily have to change traits, but having those skills.
Same applies for dredge stage – fighting the mobs.
Same applies when fighting the fire shaman.
Same applies when fighting the harpies and the last boss of harpies stage.
You need stability buffs for the ice stage – fighting the ice elemental 2nd boss.
And shield and wall is helpful in fighting ascalonian mobs.
It is safe to say, you can have those skills in all fractals. And then you adjust what you need per experience dictates.
Your build is okay, but you have to change skills depending on the stage. And because you have 25 on virtues, you can change ii and ix to v and vii if the need for you to use shield of avenger and wall of reflection.
Also, I recommend having some sort of long range weapons because you cannot melee the boss all the time, especially in the 48 stage.
To the TC ranger that just camera/zoom hacked our siege in Dawns.. enjoy your ban, we mass reported you.
The siege – ac inside dawns is easy to hit via an ac on the right or leftside of the door. There is no need to use a zoom hack or anything on it. Now you know how to counter that AC inside the tower.
FA, and K. I hope You all had fun when fighting us earlier. ;3
The ascended gear are good, but not necessary for us to enjoy wvw. As long as you have rare, least requirement, to exo; you will do fine.
But I do find it weird that it takes 40 laurel in wvw to buy earings as opposed to the accessory
ok i’m in. yes, got fixed fast.
the more we say not to panic, the more we do. – psychology.
haha.
Gw2 twitter says they are looking into it.
Huhuhu!!!
so how come we can’t get in now? i hope any anet staff can fix this. ;3
Thank you SOS and CD. May we meet again in better terms after this matchup. Keep it up.
Hey Sovereign,
Just gotta call you out here, but why were you lurking in our TS, CD, I mean it couldn’t be that you were trying to listen in on where our zergs were going right cuz you sure as heck just disappeared when I directly messaged you. I mean I don’t mind if you just came to hang out, but jeez at least say something otherwise there might have to be a ban put down and I really don’t wanna have to do that.
That is not me. Please ban who ever that is. Ty
My CD tag, in the past is [Awe]SovCiel – if someone is using my name in CD TS please scold ban or kick the person out of the channel.
I currently don’t have TS installed in my computer because I’m solely using mumble.
Anyway, thanks for pointing this out. This was pointed out to me just now, as I was about to do my fotm runs.

CD has a lot and we’re fighting against them with equal or less numbers. We win some and we lose some. And they often would wipe us if they stuck together. But when the fight is long, and the endurance is faltering, they kind of spread out, which i think is like panicking, and it’s where we capitalize and kill the stragglers.
Very good fight.
(edited by Sovereign.1093)
^ That is the spirit.
ps. if you want to catchup, maybe we can like do fotm or cof – my old cd buddies.

While I think being serious in WVW is okay, but sometimes, we have to remember to have fun too. And how do we measure fun might be different for other players. So, are the amount of time, money and effort they spend and we spend in making sure our hero is at his or her peak.
TC,
First off, stop the big brother routine. You know, where a 15 yo beats his 10 yo brother at basketball and says things that sound encouraging, but are really just condescending because we are NOT your 10 year old brother.With that out of the way, I want to say thank you. Thank you for whooping on our PuGs and militia so brutally.
No, I don’t wish ill on them; just the opposite. I want everyone on SoS who does WvW to learn that all beserker gear doesn’t work. Want everyone in heavy armor fully decked out in PVT gear and running with consumables.
I want our newer commanders (even including myself in this one) to get used to communicating with their groups in Team Chat and learning to not fear repair bills.
I want people to download TS3 and actually use it, so that we aren’t typing “War and Peace” every 30 seconds just to take back a supply camp.
Because the last 2 weeks, we had excuses. “FA and TC are larger and BFF’s” or “SoR is just too big.”
With FA hitting hard times, we face the real possibility of taking their place if things get worse over there. That means that we should be facing you every week.There’s no good reason, even with the overwhelming numbers, we should be down 80k by Monday.
Don’t get me wrong, we can’t beat you and we can’t match your coverage. However there is no reason for us to be losing like we are…other than fatigue and Zhaitaffy (ok, we deserve some slack..this time)We’ll work on our end and since ANET just thinks we’re perfect for each other, we’ll work on putting on a better match next time (this week’s a wash already, but we’ll see if we can salvage it).
Can I steal the relevant parts of this and replace “SoS” with “CD” and sign my name to it?
(Yeah this is an abnormally long thread for a CD match – and CD is the cause for most of it. Our bad)
I don’t write on the forums at all but this is embarrassing.
I like this. Can I change SOS with TC too because it partially applies to our militia too.
CD. Man, that was a tough fight at EB. Got to say, as long as we don’t surprise you guys, you really push us to death.
Hehe, give us the pleasure of believing that we’re actually good at what we do and not just because of numbers.
The good thing about the new sytem is everyone gets to feel strong and weak depending on the week; but the inconsistency might make WVW non-competitive. It will make our beloved sport, a past time.
