Guild Wars 2

ORGH The amount of whine and WOE is me is over the top.

Everybody sit down and relax this is what we know.

1. There different events that have different difficulties and need for numbers. Bounty was a Multi-zone event so chance’s are you will need to be in a BIG guild for it to work.

2. The different events size might coincide with different levels of the tree. A 5 man event will need tier 1 and 20 man event needs tier 5.

3. There is no talk about it only being in the Art of War tree. Only that the Bounty one will be in that tree.

4. It is something to work towards. It is a thing that will take effort and planning from your guild. IT is not meant to be a easy way for you to get loot. Yes your 2 man guild will have a hard time doing things and that is why there is the multi-guild function.

5. It is a very short passage so keep your impotent nerd rage in check until we actually know the entire picture and stop being so dam reactionary.

6. The people complaining about having to go into the wvw tree when they don’t wvw. I have to do kitten Dungeons for my monthly and Fractals for ascended gear.

IN the end relax and let’s see what happens before you blow the top of your head off in pure anger.

look familiar?
both giants wont fight each other. again…

BG and KN crash into each other all the time. However, over parts of the night and early day, both servers tend to be more opportunistic and take the path of least resistance.

So rather than fighting each other,KN and BG would rather not fight each other most of the night and day(every once in a while crashing into each other) so they can get the easy points double teaming the less populated server. Now i know why you guys cant get out of T2,but i cant figure out how TC is staying in T2 being the least populated server of the three,and being double teamed most of the time.
who do you think is the better server ,and gets the most action?

Don’t start. They fight constantly and we fight them as well on every map. Expecting them to not take advantage of easy points during our downtime is foolish, and getting hurt feelings about it only hurts you. They have a pretty close matchup going on, and I can tell Kaineng is hungry for BG’s ranking. Despite that, TC can run an extremely competitive Primetime with the luxury of not having to worry about the overall score since our Oceanic presence lacks us that luxury.

The most important thing, though, is that in a week or 2 we are going to be in their spot, hammering two other much less populated servers and you are going to be reading posts like yours constantly from them. Try to be the competitor you want to face.

I give full props to TC you are in a weaker position then both Kenig and BG because you lack the Oceanic and European contingent you can not do so much, but at NA you put op a great fight. I know i have had to several times where i was leading RK and got called in to deal with massive TC army’s.

The way you can tell a solid server is not how often you win, but by the defeats you can survive. TC always come back even after we took all there things. They actually seem to be coming back with bigger and bigger forces and you can only admire it.

So Thai was organizing a golem rush in Kening last night and RK joined it and i most admit Omega Golems are the greatest golems.

RK was out again to day and we had great fun running into Kenig. With the help of other guilds we manged to do a lot of great things.

Score update and extras below. When we want a wall down NOTHING WILL STOP US!!!

Good day today with RK. Some what of a slow start, but some massive fights here and there. Unlucky for me i did not get to fight WM when i finally had all my guys out and was only fighting them with 10 RK and a few militia.

Still good day over all. I got to wipe Kenig so i could take TC’s tower. Great fun over all.

Score…

1 hour and 20 mins until RK is going to out fight again. I hope to kill you all then.

Hopefully you will have a bunch of stuff for me to take when RK goes active in a few hours.

Well another night another fight. Good solid fights all around even if the WM army was a bit to big for us to take on from the start, but in the end we help a tower and murdereised a bunch of Kenig players.

Good fights over all. I hate playing that defensive, but you forced my hand.

Also SCORE!

We had some great fights in TC over all tonight as RK.

Score update also next time you take most of the zone’s Kenig do not post about it. You only force me to get on earlier and take stuff back.

I am WAAGE I HAVE SPOKEN!!!!.

Noooo i want to stay. I mean this is nice and pleasant i like it here. Tier 1 is a horrible place where one is unhappy.

I say join some one else so i can stay.

Well Europe have more competitive gaming then NA. There for you see a lot more competitive teams and though that people tend to take things a bit more serious when over here compared to NA.

It is like this a teams start out with a more competitive mind set and they are forced to fight other teams that start in the same way. The level of skill goes op faster as they fight one another.

I had to take a break from the tier 1 discussion thread, the amount of ranting that is going on in that thread atm is insane.

Even your combative posts here are pretty luke-warm in comparison. Were others are actually telling people to clam down and not get so emotional.

I encourage the tier 2 community to view and bestow some maturity on the tier 1 discussion thread. Use it as an example of how not to behave when u guys are in tier 1 next.

Respect.

lol speaking for myself in a server that played SoR and beat them for 11 weeks in a row, I completely understand why the T1 thread is polluted with bull kitten. SoR has the worst forum warriors/trolls I have ever come across in a game and an immature community that thinks they have the largest e-pens’ compared to the rest of the servers. One would have a better chance at convincing a wall that it’s a bird when trying to talk some sense into them. Really glad Kain and especially TC can keep it classy and not formulate excuses like SoR did for every week they lost. Long live the current T2 matchup, keep it up fellas

Well we had people like that in BG the first time we went into tier one, but as we got knocked down we lost a lot of them to other servers.

Also i know HB have a zero tolerance for open forum Drama and it is kind of the same with RK or at least i have gotten told that i am not allowed to start fights on the internet any more or i will not be given siege and i will have to buy it my self.

My lust for in game gold is higher then my lust for internet drama.

Great fight at BG BL tonight. Our 15 men held out BG’s 40+ men zerg at Bluebriar for over 2 hours. ^^

The where no Zerg. It was all a elaborate rouse.

In realty it was cardboard cut outs on strings and a tiny track going in circles it was all part of the plan.

Well RK was out and about again with Nith leading today and it was preaty good fight and we got ton of loot so woot to us.

Here is a score update from me as a tree.

So yeah i am one of the main wvw leaders in Radiant Knights on Black Gate (tier 2) in the EU time zone. I do not only lead RK into battle i often enough also have other guilds running with me.

Warriors are one of the single most useful classes in the game and have some of the best synergy of any class out there.
A warrior has some of the best speed buffs, disrupts, passive survivability and skirmish buffs in the game with options to modify and enhance them with out giving any thing up.

They also have solid damage and some great utilities that make them a kittenhreat that should not be underestimated.

Rafael.9085:

ima have to say this but really it seemed like tc and bg united forces at kain BL they both attacked our garrison 2 hours straight, we had our 3 gates down for about 20 minutes and the fight at lords room was still going, all we could do was res lord and respawn and keep attacking, while TC and BG didnt kil each other but helped build siege inside garri to kill our defenders, PD i manged to sneak into bay for 2 hours with a mesmer, Kain could have portal bombed very easily but every one was busy at garrison, check better for mesmers next time :P

It always looks like that.

From TC’s view i helped to wipe them several times outside of a Kenig tower. during late EU time on TC border.

In realty i was testing the strength of both so i could tell the strength of the people in the borderland in rudimentary terms at least. Kenig was not as strong as TC in the server so i hit hills and there by giving Kenig room to breath and gain strength.

I was trying to take attention away from BAY so that it could stay safe as both sides would look to Hills as there prime target. That was the basic idea at least, but depending on what side you where on the perception is different.

So i took RK out into the field today yet again i got to be in all 3 borderlands and kill both TC and Keinig.

I captured towers, Keeps and even a Garrison so i was very happy. Thanks to the Militia and guild that supported me and let me boss them around.

Everything I heard mentioned BG having pretty good 24/7 coverage – is that not true? I know the numbers are a bit skewed this week due to the lunar New Year, but later in the week that should balance out some.

Great week so far, here’s to hoping that internal Kaineng drama doesn’t skew our awesome matchup thread and the fantastic atmosphere TC and BG have shared with us.

Not really. We have some Oceanic’s and they are great at what they do, but we have never had a strong 24/7 coverage. If WM and the other oceanic over there was looking for an equal fight they will not get it. BG will fight and do there thing, but it is not our strong side. BG is a lot less populated then most people think.

Xinthai.6175:

This is not the matchup everybody wanted if the mighty War Machine is not able to field their best commander.

The good news is it looks like we’ll be stuck here together for a long time. Yay!

Why would they need him. Hey it sucks if he was wrongfully banned, but do they really need him to PvE some doors. It is not like we have a massive Oceanic presence for them to fight.

A few from RK ran with HB tonight and it was fun, but man i hate being awake on this ungodly hour.

Also when smokee post his video be on the look out for the big Yellow dood. That would be me.

I had great fun taking parts of TC and running over who ever i could with RK tonight.

Also score update

Hey that’s a really sweet looking character! What armor combination are you wearing? I have a norn friend that might be interested in looking as burly as you do.

Well it is all Transmuted to hell.

Helm is “Mind of Koda” from Honur of the waves.
Shoulders are “Commando’s Pauldrons”
Chest is" Guild Heavy Armour" (Guild skin for Armour that puts your emblem on there)
Gloves are the “Carrion Draconic Gauntlet’”s
The Pants are “Commando’s Chausses”
And the Shoes that you cant see are the “Heavy Rubicon Boots.”

The Dyes i use is Abyss Black, Illumination (Yellow), Ancient Silver and the red i have in a few places is Ruby.

There you go.

I had great fun taking parts of TC and running over who ever i could with RK tonight.

Also score update

Well it is disappointing, but i can survive for a month.

To the HB and other BG who just stormed us at the hills in FABL, amazing work. That was some top notch stuff – lots of great cohesion and stacking. It’s just a shame that we couldn’t put up a better fight because 1 person didn’t listen when we said “please don’t queue fortify”.

Top notch stuff though, that was definitely a tier 1 performance, great blast stacking and ability to move on the fly.

Yeah that is always horrible when it happens. Hey we got this keep and enough supplies to do something let’s get read to fi… WHO IS BUYING MERCHANTS" we have seen that happen to us also.

Radiant Knights [RK] Was part of the back end of the fight after HB and the others had done most of the ground work. We manged to make a strong push into the top of the lord room and destroy the last siege up there clearing the way.

It was a great fight.

Soutalgon.3827:

well, must be nice that sheer luck of 3 euro guilds transferring to blackgate to carry them out of the loss they had. Euro guilds dont want competition else they would of spread out among the 3 servers instead of merging on just 1. Real sportsman of you guys. Least it was fun while it lasted and it was still worth beating the tar out of blackgate til the fight got rigged

We are not there yet. We have some 20-40 people trying out the server and talking with people to see if latency is a issue and if the server is good.

Nothing else. Our guilds are not there yet and the final choice have yet to happen so relax.

I did almsot 5 hours of wvw.

I have yet to run out of any content.

We have plenty of Strong wvw guilds who are ramping up more and more. If you are willing put some effort into winning instead of running with the zerg JOIN US!.

When we are on we Dominate, but our issues are more in the problem that we need more to win we can’t be active 24/7.

Hey i am Waage from the guild Radiant Knights we are a +100 man guild that is mostly doing wvw on Ruins of Surmia.

I am also on the Primary wvw leaders and officers in the guild.

Now other then 1. Your complaints are silly.
Yes they need to fix the pop in and where you show people you fight. It is a huge pain in thekitten and it needs a fix, but that is a bug and kitten happens.

Now for the rest i take it you are not a long time wvw guy so you do not see what is needed.

2. The PvE mobs are there to limit movement and make it more risky to go off the beaten path there by making roads more used. That means you will have more Warband vs Warband fight’s as they travel around.

The thing is trying to move 40 people around should not be easy and having a few mobs in the way slow’s a warband down making roads the faster way to travel there by making it easier to spot for small groups.

A small group can move through side paths easier so the pve mobs are a good thing.

3. Do tell me what classes are not good in wvw. I have not seen any class that can not do great things in wvw.

Elementalist’s are great at AoE, but they become a million times better in conjunction with a guardian. A Thief has some great AoE and support skills that can win you a fight. AoE stealth for a group really helps if you need to hit some siege weapons and get out.

No class is useless especially not if you run with an organized guild.

4. They do, but there is a bug. Only the small sentry’s do not.

5. NO we make a bunch of money if you are a part of a organised guild with out that money sink we would be swimming in money in RK and prices on trade would be way more inflated-

6. I disagree. Downstate is there so if you play right and uses your skills right you can get back into a fight with out the need for rez spells.

I beat CM EM Asura Path 1st try with a random group. It was difficult, but you just gotta know what you are doing.

Back when we did it we got 36k exp 25 tokens and some silver. It probably gives more now depending on what level you are. Since it seems as if dungeon rewards now scale to level, which is awesome.

I manged to do it to, but if you do not have a team that is built for it then it is a bunch of bull.

I love the bosses in that route and they where fun, but the Trash mobs where stupid strong and some of the pulls where pure stupid.

I like a Challenge, but there is a challenge and then there is stupid hard.

On Ruins of Surmia we sometimes have Queue’s in EB and sometimes the border lands when the different wvw guilds are out in force.

Yes it is annoying, but i would rather have short little Queue’s then zones with thousands of people that makes the game unplayable.

IF you where a wvw person that wanted to do hardcore wvw then you would be joining on of the smaller servers to help build it up and get access. IF you are on a massive server then guess what there will be queue’s.

yes there are some who do that and they need to be punished.

Now often it is a matter of perception and it fells like you are getting attacked by both of them at the same time, but that is becaus of how the maps are made and it is a good thing.

Monday we where in EB with the guild that i am part of Radiant Knights.

The match was Drakkar Lake [DE], Ring of Fire and Ruins of Surmia (my server).

Now Drakkar had taken the middle keep and after a long fight we had manged to fight our way into the inner keep with PUG help.

SO we murder our way up and we are winning when all of a sudden Ring of fire shows up and attacks us from behind. 10 RK members and some pugs slow them down below the lord to buy time for our guild to kill and take the KEEP and then swoop down and murder the invaders.

Now Ring of Fire had attacked us Several times during the day and if you where not pay attention it would look like they where working with Drakkar attacking us where we where weak when we where assaulting Drakkar.

Now the thing is we where attacking Drakkar because they where fighting Ring of Fire so we could sneak in and raid there towers and supplies. Through the eyes of Drakkar it would be the Ruins guys who looked like they where helping the Ring side.

Some times it is only perception, but that is not to say that it dose not happen. If you see some one doing kitten like that and you can prove it with screen shoots then get evidence and report.
