Guild Wars 2

2 druids and 2 guards where as 1 the funreal one is bunker guard, only 6 kills. Makes sense

can someone explain why guest servers that are linked with a “full” server are not locked for transfer? it makes no sense, not only do they get a server to handhold them but people can transfer there freely, thank you for the answer

“handhold”? lol, seriously do you think that just because a server has been considered small enough to support another server that it’s behind handheld? Frankly it’s the other way around. Your server is a host and has links because it can’t sustain itself either. Otherwise you would not have a linked server.

We can argue with ANet about this without being nasty to the very people that we try to have fun with in the game.. right?

In EU servers that got high population and is in t1 gets links, servers that otherwise are full status. People are transfering to guest servers that are linked with full servers to steamroll their opponents.

Yes linking was a good idea but with the introduction of rewards its not really neccesary anymore because most servers got players. If they trully want a better enviroment for everyone they should just redo the entire gamemode and close servers that are considered “empty” . Theres no reason to keep empty servers up other then allow people to play with “full” servers.

Yes roflstomping enemies is fun, but what about the ones getting roflstomped all the time? linking solved nothing.

FogLeg.9354:

The reason is that linked servers have less players so everyone transfering there is balancing up the WvW.

How does it have less players when its “full” aka you cant transfer there

can someone explain why guest servers that are linked with a “full” server are not locked for transfer? it makes no sense, not only do they get a server to handhold them but people can transfer there freely, thank you for the answer

Link low population servers indefinately and stop with these linkings, they are just discouraging for the community

https://strawpoll.com/s794hkg1

left is SFR and right is Deso, so, they got queued on almost all maps, winning k/d and winning ppt. Why do they need a link again?

DLight.7952:

I like linking servers. I’m not sure how one would know about “population being at an all time high.” As an Anvil Rock player, I’m not interested in going back to playing on empty maps. I like learning from different players; each server is quite unique.

If its truly empty like u say wouldnt it be better if they just closed the server and offered transfer to other servers. Not locking linked servers = easy bandwagon transfer to otherwise full servers. It happens way to often that they link servers that are otherwise full or high population already, atleast on EU.

Lets be honest, population is on all time high since rewards are introduced, linking servers serves no purpose anymore other then easy way to bandwagon and for anet to make easy cash from transfers. If you gonan continue with linkings you need to either open up full servers or lock transfers to linked servers. get your kitten together because the gamemode is a snorefest.

Hello

I recently downloaded gw2 launchbuddy to log and play on several accounts simultaneously and is now looking for a autohotkey script to switch client window clients with keyboard shortcut. If anyone got a script for this please do share.

burn guard can apply a lot of vuln and cripple as well.

literally wut? burn guard has no cripple sources from their skills or traits so the only way this is possible is from a sigil. Their only source of vunlerability is f1 if traited to do that which is completely awful and chains of light on scepter which applies 3 stacks.

This is why noone takes the forums seriously.

You are aware that the dragonhunter has 2 traits that sunergies with f1 burn right? applying vulnerability AND cripple everytime f1 triggers. Maybe you should go read up on guard before you comment on this forum.

Darknicrofia.2604:

Lets not pretend like anyone actually liked or used the old SWs

I used hammer for my burn guard and have been for the last months, got to rank 41 and 1811 rating with burn guard and spirit hammer on EU. I liked the old hammer more

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

Yes, this is allowed. As long as each account is played independently. There’s a Sticky above addressing this topic.

Good luck.

Ah didnt see that, ill check it out. Thanks for the reply

Hello

I recently download the gw2 launchybuddy program that lets you log into several accounts simultaneously. Is this allowed as long as you play the accounts manually without any alteration such as move 1 char and other moves.

Thanks

I think i was ressing someone and this guy was cleaving, i used active knockdown while ressing then hammered him with burns, he died and my guy got revived. Was using the zeal traitline so the hammer was dealing burns aswell. 3 sec knockdown on 12 sec cooldown op op

Guy calling me hacker because of spirit hammer knockdown, tried to explain what happened but that didnt go very well.

My new engineer, getting ready for the new spec

They’d have lost to someone eventually, most likely first or second round. At least they got to see top level PvP from the enemy team first hand

They won the tourney, other matches were roflstomp, final was 170-500

Krysard.1364:

I dont see the problem, its not supposed to match equally skilled teams

The problem is there are no other skilled teams, maybe next month they can just give them the rewards.

Perhaps the monthly tournament is too easy to enter. It is, after all, a Monthly Tournament. These things aren’t suppose to be easy.

Only 32 teams was in the tourney, even less in NA. Maybe anet dont need to hand out 500g and a obnoxious crown to people for “achieving” something in a dead gamemode. People have no interest in making teams for pvp.

This automated tournament is the biggest joke ever, lets increase rewards for a dead gamemode none cares about. The ones who tryard do whatever they can to manipulate the system. I got permabanned for saying aloha snackbar in mapchat and these people only get dishonor? seriously anet

All the proof is there stop sugarcoating it. Also remove that obnoxious crown. Crown for what? win 3 matches? how about i get a crown for killing 250k players in wvw, thats more of an achievment.

nice meme, pvp so alive, daed game.

Sleepwalker.1398:

No ones bandwagon to TC, actually we just keep losing players.
You should come join TC and play for a few days.
I bet you will come back here again and ask a mod to delete this thread.

Soory forgot to mention, this is for EU, dont know about NA

Why are the servers that get linked not locked for transfer? why do anet encourage people to bandwagon to linked servers. Wasnt the point with linkings low population on the guest servers. EU Server linkings have no purpose anymore other then a way for u to cash in on the bandwagoners.

What’s going on with these MUs?

As a Dazgo, i get forced into a timeout/break from WvW because of ANets MUs..

No reason to play this week, thanks a lot. Vabbi zergs everything and everybody down to ground. No chance at all. Roaming amd Zerging impossible against this predominance (in numbers!!)..

Fun to play? Doing reward-tracks? Try to conquest something? Maybe next time… oO Why you are not interested in a real (mean: playable!) WvW-MU? Why?

As said, the AM/Dz side got enough players. I whispered some and asked why the amount of thieves and rangers is so high, and that they dont have proper builds. 3 guys said that most of the people just play for themselves. Maybe you guys need some new cmds who push you people out of laziness. AM could do just fine, you got the numbers. But atm, when you got queue and cmd, still 90% are on roaming classes, we just need half the people to plow through. Cmon, you can do it!

Mhm, ok. You asked few guys (gender correctly: people^^) and got that answer. But it’s not really about that. Last Matchup e.g. we were linked with Drakkar and everything went well: Commanders, who announce what they want (water, spike, walls etc.) and zerglings with a proper build so that they don’t fall during enemies first push. And after relinking they’re all gone?

You can have the toughest and best-organized zerg – you won’t be able to make a point against pure outnumber. And as i see, every motivated wvwler and commander stay out of wvw because it’s frustrating. So the rest are surely mostly randoms and new players who make the zerg atm.

Maybe you’re right..but i can’t remember a link or matchup, where mostly of the time we got outnumbered-buff on every map :/

No, he asked what gender the 3 who messaged him were and they were males, did you just assume he/she/it/attack helicopter/ze/za/zi/zen/zan/zin/zun/zon assumed their genders? REEE

And yes, the vabbi linking is stupid. All linking are stupid, they serve no purpose anymore. Just link smaller servers indefinately and block all server transfers.

Skittledness.5106:

Winning competetive tournaments in pvp is the hardest content gw2 has to offer and anet gives 5 gold a daily win??? Why would any body do more than 2 get their qualifying points and leave?How does that encourage other teams to practice and get better by playing those teams?Also the tourney takes like 1.5 -2hrs to complete so 5g? that’s ridiculous

Make the rewards somewhere around 50g a win and PLEASE FOR THE SAKE OF PVP REMOVE CLASS STACKING

If you want best gold/hour ratio go do something else, play pvp for enjoyment. Also suggesting 50g nice meme

The OP is Katsumi and only wants the rewards to increase because he knows he’s going to win every single one. The whole motivation argument of his is just a cover, people who care about PvP will play ATs every day for fun, more rewards aren’t needed. Not that I personally care because I uninstalled the game today, but the Abjured doesn’t really deserve more from the community or Anet because the only players on that team that are actually decent people are Nos and Zero.

Winning all the time in a video game sure makes the losers in it salty!

This is toker’s 3rd account in top 10 and he’s saying this for the same reason Katsumi is, because he knows he’ll win every single one. Yes I was salty a couple days ago but I don’t care anymore because I uninstalled. I just want people to know who the OP and you are so perhaps they can develop a different opinion since you two are such valuable and helpful players in the community.

Imagine the amount of cry if raids gave you 5g as a reward because that’s only elite content for the top 1% of pve players who can play this game.

The point is that there should be rewards that would make ordinary players want to make a team and get better. If 5g is the only reward then no one is gonna be interested in tourneys. The only “good” reward would be monthly but unless there is a carrot that can make players want to improve and get better then the “good” rewards will always be given to the same teams.

If there aren’t really great rewards from doing tourneys then who is gonna play them?

Better rewards from daily/monthly point isn’t to make top pvp players be rich. Making the pvp scene grow is the point here.

PvP has gotten in a point where everyone in NA thinks that the best players are cheating because the pvp playerbase has changed and players play the game like the game had just been launched.

I recently watched a unity NA tournament where one of the teams literally had 1 afk on close the whole match and when the match was almost over they did random 5 man zerg to far point and lost the game. If this is the skill level in NA then I am not wondering why ppl accuse better players of “cheating”.

GIT GUD!

Problem is there is no interest to be competetive in gw2, why did they stop weekly cups and the tournaments? because theres no interest in them, adding more rewards wont incentivise people to be competetive, only more scrub teams that will get steamrolled by the few established teams. The established teams only want easy loot, they couldnt care less if more people play.

Hannibal.6294:

Totally agree. Why should I play an hour and a half of an AT and only win 5 gold while I can queue ranked for the same amount of time yet earn much more. These rewards need to be scaled up a lot more otherwise teams will get their minimum 100 QP’s and stop playing these.

Then stop playing, there will always be teams playing in the tournaments. If you want best gold/hour ratio go do something else.

They ned more incentive. Im not gonna look for 5 ppl for only 5 gold. They can instead give blacklion keys which are always great

“i’m a fanboy and my favourite streamer said black lion keys is a good idea, let me go on forums and say black lion keys is a good idea, i’m such good boi”

dude you are the only guy against keys. you are also seriously salty about it. considering how quickly you accuse people of having ulterior motives im going to assume that you’re projecting.

giving between 1-5 keys per member to the winning team would be a great incentive to compete & get competitive.

Give winning team 1 black key, sure. But people suggesting 10 keys equivalent to 280g or 12 euro gotta get realistic. Black lion keys are what makes anet the most $ and suggesting that they will hand out thousands of black lion keys every month is not realistic.

and dev proved us that it wont happen ^^

“Using this tactic, my team could dodge potential competition by slowing down our games.”

His intention was to manipulate. Nothing stops top teams from fixing daily finals by agreeing on who to win, by throwing, aka manipulating.

Not really, exposing a potential flaw doesn’t mean I would use it. That being said, I’m glad there are brackets in the ATs.

Nice edit on your post

Triggered much?

Not triggered, just proved my fact people will and try to manipulate the tournaments 1 days after release, triggered?

Funny how people already find ways to manipulate this kitten, and people want more rewards lol nice joke 10/10

zealex.9410:

Why not when to get them you havev to be better than so many teams 99 to be exact. And their sales wont decrease. A HUGE part of the population will enver prob get top five these ppl will still buy keys liek they used to. This just makes tourneys all the more apealing.

Just because 2 streamers dont think its appealing doesnt mean it isnt, alot of people want the armor and other stuff. Maybe play for enjoyment and not gold/hour ratio, if you want to maximise your gold/hour go do pve. Winners get a good kitten statue for gods sake.

choovanski.5462:

no, keys are a good idea. they are an actually valuable reward which can give you some really good skins. its a good incentive to compete in the tournaments. im in favour of it.

also, the chances on the tournament getting manipulated is really low. if it happened anet would be able to ban people easily too. so its not worth.

10 keys is 280g or 12 euro, you cant possible think anet will award 10 keys to all winners on repeatable daily tournaments

Not all winners only the top team the rest 4 will get less. And not everyone can take part in tourneys 3 times a day its leinghty process Takes hours usually to finish one.

Do you really think anet will award hundred of keys weekly when keys are what makes them the most $ gemstore wise, i think not. Not even the reward track that awards ONE black lion key is repeatable, please be realistic.

It should be more prestige only stuff
(The current gold + other valuable stuff rewards can stay ofc but not more of those should be added and instead more immaterial prestige stuff)

Maybe things like:

• Special Emotes (like AdH / Zaishen in GW1) for 1 month
• Unique Auras for 1 month
• Make the Glorious Hero’s Armor that you get there more distinguishable from the Ardent Glorious Armor and the Glorious Armor Sets (maybe add a special effect like they did with the T3 WvW Armor) so players can show their prestigious piece of Gear

no more auras, i support the reworked armor tho

Why no to auras? They are a fantastic audition, they are wat allows ppl who achieved something to be able to show it.

So is titles, we dont need more obnoxious auras

gems is kittenty aswell, thats why they stopped awarding it. I know you are just a lord helseth fanboi who just copy pasted what he said on stream but i dont think black lion keys is a good idea. It will have a big affect on the economy. Tournaments can easily be manipulated so i dont think the reward should be to high.

No thank you, keys should not be rewarded in a gamemode only a few established teams will win. Also keys are not awarded anywhere else in the game as a repetive reward. Maybe make it 10g but scrap the keys.

I like all u listed except the reduced kick timer, what if i have to take a kitten, i dont want to sit in 120 man queue again.

I played burn guard before it was cool, Its a fun build!

Whats the purpose of linking servers now with skirmishes, all servers got populations now.

Tired of enemies running away from fights? miss the good ol days when skirmishes didnt matter? no more! with a deployment range of 200 and a effect radius of 3600 dome of death is the ultimate choice. Happily kill your enemies with no chance of escaping but to fight to death! But be cautious, the dome only works if there are 25 enemies and 25 allies presence. If u cast dome of death people can enter the dome but not leave.

Available today at the traps and tricks merchant.

Theres no point in having a 350 rank requirement when u are guaranteed to have it by the time u have enough tickets, thats my point.

think im gonna sacrifice my first 350 tickets for science unless someone at anet enlightens me

I dont think thats a very good idea tbh, yes there needs to be a way to get rid of them other than lvling alts but free ranks is not the way.

It makes no sense that the rank cap to get legendary backpiece is only 350, by the time you gotten all tickets required to get it u will guaranteed be over rank 350. Increase the rank cap for it. #justanetthings

Hello, does this new wvw converter have same reward table as all other converters aka blue, greens and copper trash items or does it work like the fractal reliquary/karma converter where u get to choose reward. 50 memories of battle is like 4.5g and is not worth the junk /blue/greens u will get.
