sounds like this is either ta or ac. both that can be rather raw. what build are you curret using? and list what gear as well.

But one thing you did get right is that dungeons arent really worth it :/

POLL: Which WvW Ranking system do you prefer?

in WvW

Posted by: echo.2053

echo.2053

I like 1 up 1 down

The problem I see with this system is in the Tier 1 area. In theory all it takes is for 1 of the servers to play for 2nd place. Effective locking the tier pummeling anyone that comes in since niether 1st nor 2nd place would move.

A solution would be to dissolve one of the lowest non particpatiting servers, thus creating tier 1 to be a 1v1 server match which personally i think theyd find fun as well as guarented competiveness.

The problems with this new new idea:

What happens to the players/guilds on the server that is to be removed – players could be given a free transfer pass. guild leaders could contact anet to get an rp item that would give them a headstart in remaking guild.

Both EU and NA have dual servers with lowest ratings…. it would not be fair to one server if the other was allowed to move to a higher tier. Im at a lost here, removing both would creat an odd sever out. thus the only way to implment this solution would be to remove 4…. wont happen since the 3 and 4th lowest servers are ready and rather extremely competetive lacking only coverage.

combining the severs doesnt seem optimal enough ( espically with vabbi and fow) though sadly someone has to be in last place. BUT this system opens to the realm of possiablities

Humans will mostly always take the easy way out, hence the top tiers are full and nearly have complete time coverage.

with this system being rather unpredictable its quite possiable for the population to spread out since it would not be a guarented. then agins it still possiable that servers be the same due to the funk that the several free months of transfers created.

If you let get it seen by the devs, if not let it rot

i guess they are having a good reset now that SF is gone.

HA jokes on you a good DH reset is a mythical beast.

In all seriousness though, the past few months of 2v1 on dh reset weekand training has paid off extremely well. We have moved from suiciding SM to protecting our assets. Was amazing to see only a corner of the dh bl not green and only a few eb assets not green.

Started in gom bl trying to help a guildie get the last poi he needs. To his luck he is still getting trolled by it. Lol we ran into 2 goms with 8 people…. next thing here comes 30+ sooo thats what it feels like :P
—- sidenote i prolly shouldnt of kept on my upleveled war but i was laughing to hard at the guildie

Ended the night stealing NSP name tags >:) just wait for what plans i have in store for them.

Population imbalance == not fun

Problem was that they allowed free transfers for the first few months. Its just human nature to pick the easiest path. servers become so locked that the only way to move is to rig games.

Theres going to be hundreds of transfers when some servers dont meet the ideas of its population.

DH has become nothing but an Eredon Terrace to me..

Badgehaven
Baghaven

The server with the most up-levels and least 80s. Unless by sheer numbers, DH loses encounters 100% of the time on an evenly matched field.

Where do you get this information? Because We have beaten even level groups we come across all the time, have we been beaten..sure..but to use this as a crutch for you losing for a month is bad form.

as a side note..im sure you do see a ton of uplevels lately. When we know that the other servers dont have what it takes to even pull off an upset, everyone takes the chance to get their alts to 80….im sure every server does thakittens a shame to see another group of people catch a case of the devonas…although there is a cream for it <3

Jaxx

I lold, sounds like you are living in a fantasy.

Well i guess…. i always thought it was " we are living the dream" but things get mistranslated.

The only times we get beat is really from surprise, sandwich or you running back to previously emplaced siege weapons.

On the side note you really have been helpful in levling. started off lvl 23 when you first got in this tier, now im lvl 73 and expectant to be 80 by the end of this week <3 chuga chuga woot woot.

I will be a sad bunny when this new ranking system get emplaced though :/

moderate queue timer servers i believe would be t5/t6 servers. never extends 20 minute wait which really on occurs during reset night.

I dont see why you couldnt join wvw same day. the only thing i think you are prevented from doing is transfering to a new sever for 24 hours

Reality for casuals

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: echo.2053

echo.2053

I consider myself a bittersweet casual. i preordered the game played for a month and then stopped playing until december…for no reason lol. decided on which legendary i wanted last month and got it less then a week ( then again im a hoarder so i kinda had a head start).

Point im trying to make as a fellow gw1 player is that gw1 lasted 7 years ( its still live but its more of a barren wasteland). everything takes time.

one of the simplest methods of making money is do the world bosses ( they spawn at spefic times you can find on gw2stuff.com) guarenteed rare or above.

Ain’t no fun – it was my good way how to get them God forsaken badges per day for the Legendary (along with some running with commanders), now I cannot do that anymore.

The Gift of Battle is the easiest ingredient to acquire when trying to attain a legendary weapon. The puzzle doesn’t need to be altered to make that even easier.

That’s subjective. I’ve finished all gifts and even have the precursor, just the Gift of Mastery left, namely badges.

no it really is beyound easy to get 500 badges. its as simple as leveling a necro to 20 get increased marks and tagging enemy zergs ( just like you did for the t6 mats). can do it on a staff ele or even a gernade engi.

easily get 60-80 badges on a short wvw night

Turrets - The Buff 'A-Net" Wants us to HAVE!

in Engineer

Posted by: echo.2053

echo.2053

I absolute despise turrets. The mere idea of them makes me drowsy. Much rather jump in and out of the combat flow then to run around in circles letting some ai contraption AA an enemy to death. So yeah sadden by them “trying” to force us down that path

Yah because running around in circles or standing there facing a mob dropping bombs on the ground is so unbelievable entertaining. 1 boom 1 boom and so on. That is so much more exciting than dropping three turrets and running around using dodge, firing pistols, glue, fire, shield bubbling and tossing an electrical shield around ALL while you can still run. As opposed the abysmal targeting of throwing grenades while you try to run and having them spread out effectively eliminating 30% of your damage (of course then they stack a nerf on this, uber). So then you spec FT and maybe throw in some EG… Yep all great until someone tosses up retal and you end up one dead bbq eng all the while everyone else plinks away with out issue. But hey.. you sure looked cool shooting flames all over that miss a good 20% of the time and many times get stuck firing into the ground on anything but perfectly level surfaces. It does provide a good light source in dark jumping mazes though. FT … naw … torch (of course gamma fixes that too).

Point is its a style of game play they put in and its broken far more than the rest(actually its 100% broken beyond being able to drop turrets at this point). It should be viable and if its not going to be then get rid of it and give us something else that does work and they know how to code for to make it work.

Lol almost bro, but I use the tool kit ( yes even though its main use took a 50% hit). Thought my wrench symbol would of been a give away…

Well then its clearly obvious thats engineer prolly isn’t the profession for you since everything is either broken and/or boring.

That plus we did have the wrong commanders out.. they were leading people to bravost and dane supply, while we were calling out the 30 man ioj dr zergs that were flipping klov/ WC + supplies. came down to a point where the only thing that stem the tide was a few pieces of siege.

Top it all off was the people at SM spamming the chat to bring supplies / dragging people to save SM knowing theres was was no supplies and point to protect sm at that time. Was raging at them so much that i literally thought i lost my voice last night, and i was not even using voice chat…… dang DH npc’s

Every server has disorganized PUGs. Personally, I prefer fighting guilds who think that a portal bomb = automatic win.

Lol, this seems like a thing from Darkhaven really. Yesterday we were portal bombed 10 times by different groups of people, some multiple times, who also got wiped every single time.

It’s kind of amusing but at the same time kind of sad. Not saying this as a troll, I do applaud your effort in using strategies, but portal bombing the same group using 5+ hammer guardians is just not gonna end well, not the first time nor the n:th time.

And that, good sir, is why we are the best of the lowest tiers. XD. We have a few questionable commandos out there who seem to be more for the “legendary” work then conquering. They get swarms of dh killed, mostly standing outside a door or wall with no siege ( le sigh). It the motivating amazing ones that you need to watch out for. >:)

Where are these players? Or did you mean to say amazing zergs. Quite frankly I have yet to see a group smaller than 15 do anything more than cap sentries and get wiped by 5 people. I have literally had better fights from ioj up level roamers then anything I’ve seen from dark haven.. Your weekday force must really suck cause you guys are very reminiscent of the mass zerging/pvdooring that SBI did, yet you are in T6.

Also the hacking that happened at NW tower in drbl tonight by 3-4 DH was pretty sad.. As if pvdooring wasn’t boring enough.

Oh DR, How I love thy.

Hmm well this awkward in the very short amount of free time that I am able to play was mostly chasing the DR zergs back to some fort where they would look down at us. Even more time was spent with bottles on my fingers, clinking them together waiting for them to come down…..meh any who I am enjoying this week keep on keeping on with the unmerciful smiles of war

I know that Anet wants to punish the users for quitting on purpose when they are down, but this piece of crap game coding has got to stop crashing every 30 minutes. It has been 5 months already and this problem still has not been resolved.

As of the recent few patches, the crash rate has gone up for my 32 bit windows vista game. I’m running a very decent i5 2500k pc with 4 gb ram and a 560 GTX and the game punishes me with its kittenty coding. Why the hell do I need to pay for repair bills when the game crashes and crashes like its my fault?!!!!

That’s 5 exclamation marks there, and for whatever code of conduct we players need to observe, how about Anet devs issuing a nice statement that they can fix this crashing problem some time soon??? I can’t even run medium settings because the crash will come in within 3 waypoint moves or less. Heck I’m on lowest settings and I still crash and crash.

Just holy crap. And now I have to queue all over again and pay for my repair bills.

The highlighted part is your problem. vista is an extremley crappy buggy os. suggest going to 7 ( 8 is pretty much the same as vista)

Thief and Mesmer stealth duo vs keep.

Posted by: echo.2053

echo.2053

random smoke aoes are nearly impossible to see and keeps are huge places.

Theres a big red circle to help point it out for you. If you can’t see it and your only argument is “the place is too big!”

Then it’s a L2P issue.

I love it when thief players defend their profession with most ridiculous comparisons and use the term “learn 2 play”.

Stealth is utterly broken, especially in WvWvW. Stealth = unfun for all those who are not using it. WvWvW would be better with the stealth and teleportation mechanisms completely removed or reworked.

LOL complains about ridiculous comparisons….makes a ridiculous comparison * face palm * ( I cut it out to prevent a sweet wall o text)

I love the glass cookie cutters that come complain about thiefs XD

For someone with 8 profession ( true or false I dont really care either way) I would think you would have know thata thief with out stealth/teleport is just an extremely subpar ranger.

Ill issue you a sweet challange. Make a wvw video of you playing a thief,using any build you want but restricted from using stealth/ tele skills( also included is cnd and blind jumping) . Then come back and tell us of the glorious fun you had during that time.

too hard? heres a 2nd option you can use stealth and tele but ONLY gained from your healing and optional skill slots.

Its the attitude of a typical thief and shows how intelligent they actually are. Most thieves prefer to call you noob for not being able to combat their broken stealth mechanic instead of giving insight on how to fight a thief. That also shows how mature most thieves are too – not very.

Once you realize that glasscannon builds arent really optimal in wvw, then the rewards are pretty decent. I make an avg of at least 50 silver afer repairs every time i play.

As for numbers deciding battles, yes and no. Yes 40+ people politely knocking on the front door to a tower will result in its fall. At the same time ive been with a pack of people 10-15 aginast 20-25 where we absolutley ripped them apart. It more about strategy and knowing when to pick fights or run. Rather then attacking head on you prolly should have a few people flank them. I play thief but before you go on a side tangent " stealth op, makes it easier for you bacon !!!!" 90% of the time i dont use stealth / blinking skills while flanking. people get so tunnel visioned while in a zerg.

Why do i love wvwvw XD the abilty to attack 40+ people in a single sitting.

rewards are just bad for some stuff like defending or escorting dollyaks etc…

NO !!!!!!!!!! by that statement you missed the first few months of wvw when escorting dolyaks was rewarding. It makes todays zerg number problem look like a golden solution. people were just zerging the caravans to their garrison not caring/playing the rest of the map to gain 1000’s of karma points per an hour.

Go to any game forum and youll see the same exact situtions you see here. People crying, making rage quit threads, tring to get people to quit etc. nothing new.

strange because generally all im been seeing is nerf profession x because its a counter to my profession which makes it “OP”. Its now to the point where profession x’s down skills are op….. as a small buiness owner you should know that you can not please everyone all the time.

Requesting WvW status update

There are so many things wrong about that post it’s hard to know where to start. First of all, the OP asked for actual updates on the issues … not BS like “they probably are working on it.” Saying that culling is OK because it affects everyone is simply inane, larger maps would NOT make culling worse (sigh), and ANet has already already stated that blueprint swapping is NOT a bug.

The issues listed by the OP are a compilation of those raised by hundreds of user threads in the six months since launch, and Anet has done an absolutely horrible job of acknowledging/explaining them or proposing fixes that they actually follow through on. ANet doesn’t simply deflect … they ignore. Rift had terrible open world PvP (which is why I left it), but at least their devs were candid and communicative (which is why I stayed with it as long as I did.) The only people responsive here at ANet are the forum moderators.

As with any problem always start from the top HEY oohhhh

9:00 john arrived to work.
9:45 after some friendly chit chat with co-workers john sat in on the coding department meeting to discuss future changes.
11:00 john had lunch break ( turkey club from subway, it was delicious)
1200 john settled in his cubicle and begin going through the hundreds of lines of code looking for that one piece that was conflicting or not as quite efficient as it could be.

note this does not take 30 mins, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours Etc.

6:00 john left to go home to see his family.

there now your updated.

  • pst they usually annouce changes in the wiki*

maybe it would not cause more culling but then again it most likely WOULD create new problems. so rather than to fix the current ones now you would like to mix it in with new problems XD le sigh

i wouldnt trust anet on that espically if its soulbound ( kinda defeats the whole purpose no?)

“want want want want” all you hear now a days.

Theres something oddly particular about this. I count ( correct me if im wrong) only 20 “supposedly problems” ( lets be real not all of them are life/death problems) and yet your stating that theres “hundreds of user threads”( most likely per each topic too). Then you wonder and condemn anet for ignoring them? this isnt their first pony show mate nor are they going to waste time repeatedly answering the same question to every alike thread only to recieve " hey anet why come you only answer with generic responses"

as in the first word of my 1st post in this thread… chilllax

I’m going to let you in on a little secrete

ohh ho hoho Ill show you some secretion….if you know what i mean wink wink

Games live and games die… its the circle of life baby!!!

I play thief and ill tell you that ive been throughly ( if not enjoyably) spanked by every profession. nope im not a gc nor a tanky tank tank.

The people who are frustrated are the gc’s at back of a zerg getting slayed by thiefs who excel at “coming in from the rear” ( lol check that one out lolol)

problem isnt so much with the game, but rather more so within the individal gamers. They think they should get new items weekly, attacks should only come from the front .etc.

A prime example was when i was playing battlefield 3 and got hatemail spam from a kid after i killed him. He got mad that I flanked him rather then run down a hallway from which he was spaming machine gun rounds down.

So yes i am a heartless bitter indiviual that will not cater to your emotional needs and wants.

in the meanwhile ill be enjoying my time running into enemy zergs, tearing it up …..or getting slaughtered by the mass with a viking like grin.

chillax mien. these things take time. Be happy with the fact thats it pretty deceant considering its free to play as well as they are coming from private instances.

be happy that culling affects both sides. could be worse where only 1 side was invisable.

rewards will come in time be patient.

The dynamic event reward is fine considering that they occur more often then reg pve events.

The dolyak guards are fine. supplies are suppose to be a weakpoint of the forts, otherwise itd be a nonstop siege/repairfest. guards harass people trying to solo yakkityyaks making it somewhat more complicated. want extra protection on supplies, escort them.

blueprint swapping is a bug.

sigh bigger maps but you complain about culling…. not even gonna touch

dont understand the rework npc one.

dont like the water, stay outof it.

bug indeed most likely in the works to being fixed.

agree on the outman buffs… lol that developer was asleep while deciding what buffs it would give.

The titles are fine. we dont need a system that rewards you for every minicle action that we do " look left, congrats !!!! you now recieved the left-dominate title!!" You only care about it becuase its not easy to get.

Same Guild on Multiple Servers

mmmm guild tag combinations arent bound to a single guild. Just last night I saw an player with the same tags as the guild i was in.

I say that becuase by your pictures you show the gom players guild but not the dh one. kind of points more towards a possiable subtle grudge against the mort guild.

Now im not saying there arent people out there who purposely waste keep supplies to slow/stop upgrades.

The last point being that server spawns are so far apart that repeatly killing a sand bagging friend is by far incrediable inefficient compared to having all char slots run j/p daily.
