Guild Wars 2

As for PvE I have not made it out of the starter zones apart from story missions so maybe it is a steep scale I dont know but what i have played my one stack of confusion allong with my illusionary berserker takes care of most things but also keep in mind im lv 80. Armor rare toughness vit power gear.

EDIT: I always pull everything in range aswell since most of my abilities are aoe

I do not think its the case. I have not ran into any issues myself but I am mostly pvp as far as stacking confusion you can’t stack confusion in a wvwvw setting as glamour due to the lack of toughness and combat skills in a one on one setting and we just dont have enough abuilities to do it in a large group setting. What we can do is scare people with large red rings and rez our teamates. The confusion is just a nice perk to go allong with our support we cure conditions on a large scale and nullify enemy attacks. To me it does not seem broken at all.

Though it would be nice to see the abilities above changed to glamour to give us a lil more offencive ability.

The reason the market is in the state it is now is the exploiting that was going on with server transfers. It will ballence in time if i was in controll I would just wipe the market and tell everyone that it had to be done due to exploitation.Even the prices of oricalcum are much lower than should be

I play a Mesmer Glamour build we play mostly a support roll though we do damage through confusion from our traits. I was looking though my weapon skills and thot that a few of them should have been marked glamour Temporal Curtain, and Illusionary Wave. Also the ability Time Warp

Tell me what you think and thanks for your time.

Edit: spelling-skill/ability error

money is not hard to come buy you make money when you dont farm and you MAKE money when you do over all i dont think its needed. Gates are free and speed buffs are free.

Another option would be to lower the player caps in wvwvw. It would hopfully allow better loading, require allot of the players to change servers and making no real point to have large meta alliances like TA. It would also lower night time and day time forces needed to compete. Hopfully it would squish the fail zerg play that goes on now and make the walls and doors scale properly.

We have jobs guys but we win when we are on so gj night capping I guess we might lose lol or do we win idk

Somthing else that could be added is a debuff to players that attack players in spawn lets call it Wrath of god (My favorite card in magic) that causes a burn that can not be cured or -50% dmg and healing for an hour.

Spawn farming is a tactic most of us use to solidify our positions on the maps but it is really bad for the game as a whole.

a lfg system would be bad I lost 50s in ac today. Myself lv 80 and 3 lv 35 and one lv 75 these guys were bad players did not follow marks didnt listen to walkthroughs but appart from that they could not do much dps. So i for one will no longer group with anything but 80s from now on; im sure alot of people feel the same way.

They said they are going to add new gear in expancions so im sure you will see it soon enough.

I though about this issue asswell though i did not put it in my post though i may add it now.

I was thinking of a wrath of god debuff that is given to players that attack players in the safe zones that give + 50% dmg taken and -50% dmg done for an hour or maybe a burn that does 3x there life that can not be cured.

I have farmed allot of players it is a tactic to get them to stop playing but all in all really hurts the game.

If they make some of the changes made in my post I don’t think this sort of thing will be an issue any longer.

and remmember guys this is still just a work in proggress im sure Anet is going to fix most if not all the issues before the 2 week matches start

You guys are right thieves and rangers should be nerfed
Thieves – one shot vit tough builds
Rangers – one of the highest range classes with second highest burst

I completly agree guys Anet nerf Thieves and Rangers soon before they cry about not being able to do everything

A possable change that could be made perhaps is make the orb a drop from the random spawn world boss mentioned above.

If it had enough life a teams could assult it head on, try to wipe the other teams trying to kill the boss or wait till one team kills it then kill the group and take the orb.

WvWvW Buffs

I was thinking about play in wvwvw and the steep prefomance/stat buff for wvw and ways to soften the blow of not having a night/morning crew.

1.Make PvE objectives in wvwvw the only means to gain a large amounts of exp for wvwvw buffs
2.Add one grand wvwvw boss spawn once a week at random on a random borderlands that would grant a large amount of exp and a one hour buff that allows you to hold 15 or 20 supply.
3.Remove the robust buff in exchange for somthing like build/repair speed or efficiency

I believe these steps will allow pvers to have fun in wvwvw and really help there server at the same time.

Siege
The most important thing in my mind is the way sieges work. Most of the time you just run in and sack a tower or keep with lil resistance. Here are some suggestions.

1. Health of gates, walls, doylaks, lords. guards, and siege raised
2.raise the number and speed of doylaks from supply camps
3.lower the effect of wall repair and posably amount of supply carried by doylaks

With these changes it will leave time for reaction and make sieges a real cost. With this no full map would likly be taken as even a supply camp would take some effort to take. Matches would be won by a tower or two and lower the desperation from night capping since a small force would be able to hold there area within reason.

Orbs
With the rest of these changes it would also be nice to see the orb buffs raised but spawn randomly once a day or every few days and allow a hour buff and must be set on the alter to activate said hour buff.

This would allow a chance for rampage/zerg play and not kill the other teams morale knowing that they might be able to get a few orbs tomarrow for a game changer.

My hopes are that the synergy of these changes will make the game more enjoyable for everyone. Allow guilds to hold towers and keeps they claim along with making it a more strategic play style. Thank you for your time I hope you have enjoyed this thread.

Was it fun? Yes/No

Isomyr your missing what he is saying. He is saying they are better than you and the points show it durring the day. You guys only show up on the board when they are not playing.I don’t know if he mentioned this but you guys did exploit every match till they “fixed” it so really you guys don’t even count. Your like a minor league basball player on roids awsome you got a trophy but you have a tiny kitten. gj

Its just HQD crying cause they lost ther point lead to a low-med pop server don’t worry guys your welfare team will try to get it back while we are all a work.

All I am saying is you guys are pro. keep up the good work.

Edit: @namu didnt you guys give JQ a nick name for crying about somthing like this. Lets see HQD?

@Elaithe lol I think its hilarious that that you guys exploited your way to 1st. Get lives ! I think its hilarious your welfare team got point lead while the real men were at work; the lead your losing now. HILARIOUS!

EDIT: A lead your going to lose to a low-med pop server.

There are much more important issues to deal with other than your kitten in wvw at this moment; though it would be nice to see player names so you could see who you kill and who is killing you.

One server I play seems to exacerbate the lag issues much more than the others. I was wondering if anyone has tested this.

Well your numbers are a lil off they have a lil over 1000 player and most of them are casual and mia they get maybe 50-150 players in wvw peak hours. Of those player only one has any idea whats going on archaos and if he is not on nothing gets done in that guild.

About that battle last night in stone mist there was somthing fishy going on there idk if its posable to lagswitch WvW but after hod grabed sm and not before the lag was so bad you could not use your skills with out a at least 10s delay. I have been in larger battles with no issues.

intel i7 gtx 470 sli

You guys have allot of time left you must believe in yourselfs your welfare zerg can do it.

Hopfully the other players servers will turn it around now since there all getting home from work now.

OH NOOOOS!!! some of them might be tired from doing things all day.

LOL people on other servers have jobs.. lol yep thats hod.

We on henge do not find th… give us a break you guys do it in every match. At least I have not seen you guys flying through the map and shooting though floors this time LOL!

This is going to stop the farming exploit but will not fix the wvw issues.

That being said there really is no way to stop said spying/botting with people from the large teams who invest in other accounts to bot and spy on servers that will be a threat. This form of metagaming is foul and with the region wide market they do not even have to xfer to get there gold from there bot account.

I am not sure of the bot time it takes to gain gold = 5600 gems to pay for there investment my guess is not to long and when caught they just cry I was hacked.

I will post some screens later.

You must mean there use of metagaming yea there real pros lol

In case you need a lil help
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metagaming

In my case specificly the briar tower you can no longer get back into the keep when you hide in the space below the lord or hide on the rige on the north wall. I have not checked other hiding spots yet but will when it there local.

First week of one week match ups relax most people didnt realize it was so. Each person losing in the 2nd 3rd and 4th bracket has learned somthing this week and will be more diligent next week.

Why would they do that?

It would be really cool if they did reset at the same time think of the mayhem in the jumping puzzles at that time

They were prolly duelboxed acounts from the other server or your own.

@ skyexile maybe but I don’t think so on the 2 nights we competed against you guys allot of us were skipping out on sleep so we could compete it may have seemed that way but was not.
I was one of those guys and i was just one of many.

@richerd most of the borderlands have commanders i personaly think commander tags are counter productive and a waste of gold but 3 of the 4 boderlands use them so if you couldnt find your way to an assult team somehow im supprized.

I do agree with you about communication ironiclly ruin thinks pugs are inferior even though they recruit all of there forces from map chat lol. The teams on the other maps use the allied forces often.

Now to your use of our server for jumping puzzle plz exfer to a non competitive server for your jumping puzzles there are 2 other low pop servers xfer there plz. Most of us are here to compete and since you do not have the same goals it would be nice if you could go to one of the other servers.

These underhanded tactics have gone to far!

Our day ques are full most of the time what we need are night players and pretty much only night players. ET is a melting pot we have alot of guilds from outside the states if you are looking for others of your nationality check out http://www.gw2guilds.org/view-alliance/2

I am a mesmer we hide in keeps when you take them after you leave we port a 5 man or so team in to ninja it back there is no exploit. Its just us mesmers hiding in the shadows.

I would like to see them make the wvw bonuses come from PVE events it would take up forces of teams for an over all gain.So like maybe a strat could be instead of overall zerg could be D and PVE till you get 10% buff then to mount your assult. This would go really well with higher hp walls and doors.

EDIT: you could also add a huge monster that would spawn in the middle of the lake on the borderlands that has a huge wvw buff exp bonus enough that teams would rush over to it and fight over it while killing each other.Also with enough hp so opposing forces could gather and try to time there assult on the creature in order to try and steal the kill

Azure prower its funny you posted it again cause the first one was removed for being a fraud

Is that really a viable recruiting strat i want everyone in map chat? You should take a tally of clickers/binders lol keep it up and im sure you guys will get the biggest guild. You can be just like who was it that you said did the same thing dm?.

Most of the people you are recruiting this way probably don’t know what Oceanic players means(I like the ocean/I live near the ocean)lol.

If your organization had any respect from the community you would be able to get established oceanic guilds to join you but you do not cause your player base is nothing but randoms from map chat. On a more serious note you don’t need anymore players you dont have enough leadership for the team you have now.

lol This is not legit if it was there would be no reason not to use the name of the GM.

This is just a dimwited attempt from Ruin trying to take some of the heat of themselfs for there foul behavior.

its all about DILIGENCE! We may have just had servers that did not know the week long matches were starting. They might have just screwed up and lost there footing but either way; its the way it goes.

If you dont make an effort you cant win and with the current standing on wvw buffs you either have guys on watch 24/7 or you have people asleep 24/7 cause its a steep slope; if you let it go to long the buffs will keep you beaten.

Next week will give us all a look into how things are going these poor servers that are winning in these blow out matches are taking in the bads from each other servers and its going to kill there ability to play.

On ET we are about to go back into the top bracked and over the past 3 days ques have been 2-3 hours from 30 min. Our server is in a bad state atm with the play style used by ruin that is recruiting from the losing servers we are geting a higher % of bads than we would normaly. The first thing they say when they enter the map is where is the zerg.

diligence- constant and earnest effort to accomplish what is undertaken; persistent exertion of body or mind.

You guys are going the wrong way with this I would like to see PVE events as the main means to gain the bonuses in wvw. Right now on ET we have like 25% health buff if not more with the orbs and a 10% healing buff. If it were dictated by pve content only it would be much lower and make anyone doing said content a tribute to the war effort.

Another thing that could be done is add a one hour buff for killing the worm that allows you to hold 25 supply for an hour or what ever the spawn time for it is. It would make it a race to whos force could down it first.

Even as is it should not be taken out thats silly grow up its not your wvwvw map if somone wants tokitten around in wvw thats there choice

Edit: some spelling errors

I would say that they will increase wall door and siege weapon hp so that it takes hours to siege instead of just running around capping with np. It will increase the grace period for losing servers through out the match time and make sure that our winners are the truly dedicated. What I have seen for the most part is sad compaired to what it could be just roming arounI with a zerg toppling points cause its just so easy to do and defence is toppling assulters with your zerg before you even render in.

I would say a good solution is a huge increase to gates,walls,siege weopons enough so each siege is a really expencive choice in both time and man power. Also increase the supply carivan rate and upgrade time so in order to siege you really need to have a team just on caravans.You could also lower the hp gained from running supply and repairing to make sieges effective.

My prediction in this proposal would leave matches won by one or two towers instead of the zergfest we have now.

I do not think that ruin is a part of AA

http://www.gw2guilds.org/view-alliance/2

Its not a problem with the system its a problem with the players you win and you get 200+ bads that want to win so its harder to get the real players in the battle grounds.

When you lose you lose all your collected bads and your server is at full strength again

The only way that this is avoided atm is by having a high % of the server pop your players like hod has with TA.

And even this will clear up after free server xfers are stopped and players on server will start working on there game play as opposed to looking for a free ride.

I am just going by what the cross – servering officer said “you can jump right up there” and he was using there siege the officer kept it fireing in the same place then the ruin team moved gardians there to try to reflect the dmg in order to destroy it.

I was a member I have since removed myself from your Company.

Edit: The Hypocrite nature of the matter was an issue for me no matter how small the impact. Taking up a spot is enough of one to mention but as stated this was the only instance I observed.

2nd edit: The impact of telling people they would be banned for using those trebs was a large one. I do not know if its an exploit but as the game currently allows it ruin has no place trying to police other servers.

The pvp director and the GM of ruin seem to have different views on this subject. Tonight I was hanging out in there vent and was removed when I reprimanded them for cross-servering.

The officer that went over to SoS said it was to report players for using the trebs on the hill of sos spawn in EB. I said to them with all the stuff on the forums and the stink you made about other servers doing it you should not no matter your justification of the matter.

After a few hours of the officer mindlessly anouncing his actions on SoS to us the GM replied “I don’t know why they would exploit we have already won; what can they gain from it?” and I replied " The same could be said about yourselfs." and was Promptly removed from the TS server.

This instance aside I have seen little questionable behavior from them.

They are for doors not players … so many silly posts.
