Guild Wars 2

Most of the time it was just CoN in hills tbh and even when the random zerg came I’m pretty sure Kodash still had more at least at the start anyway. Had fun fights though.

You should turn your head every once in a while to see your co-players.
When we started our siege against the T3 hills keep you had around 30 to 40 (educated guess). I’ve seen some VOLTs, BG, BOOM and CoNs then, but many had guild tags I did not recognize. A few minutes later we received message of CoN entering north (I’ve counted 25?). Your first attempt at rushing toward our safe spot – despite joined forces with another group of around 20 (?) – wasn’t successful and we could wipe you with about 25 to 30. In a similar situation some time later you acted clever and waited, when we should have been pushing and did not; and in the end wiped us from the battlement.

…edit/shortening quote…

When we finally opened the inner ring you defended like some mad men (Kudos! Also: Kodash-style… We didn’t disable your port once in meh) and finally wiped us. We had problems resupplying, and in the end we could not break your choke defense (stacked AE and so many ACs and ballistas… did not feel good when we finally pushed over the bridge).

Though we did not capture the keep, we had a lot of fun and got some goodies from your corpses – Unfortunately most of us had to quit at ~10 pm… We might take revenge sometime soon…

Was indeed a nice fight guys, glad we got to exchange bags a couple of times and everyone had fun.

We look forward to thwarting your efforts at taking revenge!

Wow… people really complaining about 1v1 getting interrupted in WvW.

For a start this subject so so kittened I’m holding back the rage, so I hope I can retain some form of gentlemanly conduct for this.

WvW is not the place for finding 1v1s. If you really want to you can usually find a duel by the windmill at south camp, but roaming on your own and getting your knickers in a twist because your 1v1 (rarely is it a fair 1v1 I might add) get interrupted is quite frankly the height of stupidity.

If I’m on my warrior for example, I’m built for team fights. I have zero chance against someone built for roaming, duelling. I’m cool with this though… I will usually just try to escape and if I don’t then it’s GG, respawn, go a different route to find my guild or objective or whatever.

If you want to show off your solo skill, go Spvp. Either that or go ahead and try in WvW, but be prepared to get interrupted during your gank/duel.

WvW is and has always been group orientated. 1v1 will escalate to 2v1, 2v1 will escalate to 2v3. It’s exactly the same upward spiral as we see with the silly ‘omg more than 10 players stop blobbing!’ complaints.

@Chillnan.4186 – that meme – LMAO!!! :P

I think the big SFR blob you encountered was our afternoon map-hop Pug zerg. We have a few very charismatic commanders that tend to be good at getting quite a large following. This is also partly because SFR spent considerable time and effort in getting pug/randoms/pikachus* (*as we’ve grown to call them) on TS and organised.

I can’t speak for our all-powerful Russian contingent (who to be honest, we would be lost without <3), but our organised CET guilds play a bit later – so I think the crossover is what causes this.

Also, I think you are absolutely correct about the upward spiral effect. It happens and is natural – each side has their own perspective. When defending or taking important points on the map, it’s all part and parcel of WvW.

As Drq says though, sticking to a limit of 25 isn’t really practical. sometimes we’ll have less that want to play, sometimes more, and we all have the same right to enjoy the game.

I’ll finish by saying huge (huuuuugggeee) love and respect for all Kodash from myself and my brothers in arms. Apart from that one time with the GvG. That time we were out for blood!

PS – nice Ninja on Bay the other day. CoN were on the map and probably passed right by you. Bad scouting – you won’t be so lucky again! ^^

Good luck and have fun in the coming week, Kodash!

I agree with this, I don’t really feel like they have a place in WvW.
