Reviving the Champion Keep Lord

in WvW

iAmTheDuke.6201

I’m sure most of you know the issue behind reviving the keep lord with war-banners. I also know that this issue has been brought up multiple times. But has there been any reply or statement made about this issue?

For those of you that don’t know, the issue is the ability to resurrect a a completely downed Keep Lord to fully up and running npc that restarts the circle.

Would appreciate a response about this issue!

Hello,
Marathon runner here, apparently. RE asking for the bad-mouthing guilds to put their money where their mouth is. We are available for Official GvGs, 15v15. I mean everytime we face each other, I send out official challenges via gvg.com and no one accepts. I send PMs and in-game mails and either receive no reply or some reason that the guild cannot do an “official” gvg. Then when I see said guild on the forum trying to buff their lil ego’s, its sort of hilarious. We love to fight. Other night I was running a whopping 12 of us after our prime time into a zerg of 30ish [VR], who were so proud of their accomplishment of defeating us they spam laugh after they spent the entire night running from our primetime group that had equal #s. I guess they redeemed their hurt pride.

Jimmies rustled.

Hey ROPE + RET, your hammer train doesn’t do its purpose if you run from every fight :S

it doesn’t help when you don’t fight without VR
And wtf RET went to bed like 4 hours ago haha

Didn’t you hear?
Running multiple-guild Voltron groups with cheesy names seems to be the new thing.

Nice having Maguuma on Borlis Pass server recruiting for their server. Didn’t know they wanted our superior people!
Just shows how bad Maguuma really is when they have to try and kill other servers.

About that whole kill other servers thing….

<my small contribution to extending the thread>

BREAKING NEWS

We of Borlis Pass have decided to create a ground-breaking new guild. We don’t PPT. We don’t PvD. We don’t Zerg. We don’t GvG. We don’t roam. We don’t small man. We don’t glitch.

We are Borlis Bards [BB], and WE WRITE SONGS.

Inspired by a catchy ditty authored by Borlis Pass Mesmer on our forums (“Maguuma Matata,” check it out), I have created a song that I think captures a fundamental part of this match-up’s dynamic. Without further ado, may I present to you a derivative of Icona Pop’s “I Love It”:

I’ll Zerg It

I got this feeling on my borderlands when you were gone.
I moved my tag onto your map, spammed chat, and drew a queue.
I threw some prints onto the ground and watched my golems grow.
I moved my tag onto your map.

I don’t care. I’ll zerg it!

I don’t care.

Your players went to sleep, and now I’ll PvD
You hate my karma train, that leaves you paper keeps
550 P-P-T, bet you will say we glitched
haters are gonna hate, but it’s all coverage b****.

I’ll zerg it!
I’ll zerg it!

Best song NA

Maguma Matata, what a wonderful phrase
Maguma Matata, ain’t no NA craze
It means no worries, and loot for the rest of your days
It’s our burn-out free contingency, Maguma Matata

Why, when he was a Borlis Noob
When I was a Borlis Noob
Very nice, thanks

They found their zerg lacked a certain appeal
They would wipe in the tower after every ordeal
But they have sensitive souls, though they seem thick-headed
And it hurt, they never played, but for back cap binge.

And oh, the shame, Mag was a karma train!
Thoughta changin’ their name, oh, where is their game?
And I got downhearted, how did you feel? Every port that I
BPM, not in front of the kids, oh sorry

Maguma Matata, what a horrible place
Maguma Matata, Their skill just has no taste
It means no worries Mag is nothin to craze, yeah, sing it, kid
It’s our Maguma-free philosophy, Maguma Matata

Maguma Matata
Maguma Matata
Maguma Matata
Maguma Matata

It means that next time, we’re gonna stomp in their face.
It’s our Maguma-free philosophy, Now go out and farm em.

Maguma Matata

Also huge ups to [Ark] on Maguuma you guys were solid as kitten

Yeah, we were really impressed with Ark tonight. They’re a brand new transfer from Ferguson’s Crossing. Good group of players for sure.

Wow I didn’t know Ferguson’s Crossing had such a solid guild.

Cant wait for out other Eu transfer. Should bolster our presence up even more!

How many people do you think would still be playing PVE in this game if PVE had the same attention, rewards and updates WvWvW has had? The answer is not kittening many.

I think most peoples sense of frustration with WvWvW actually stems from how close they came to getting something that worked for the majority of the people that wanted to have real RvRvR.

While we all hoped for improvements that mattered all we got was PVE in WvWvW (siegerazers), buffed up siege for carebears, stupid WXP with pointless rank/abilities and (even after improvement to it) crap rewards. And we lost the orbs.

It really says something about the game that when content that is released that is MIND NUMBINGLY boring such as chasing round different zones killing the same mobs for hours is enough to virtually empty WvWvW.

WvWvW guilds are drifting away. Even on SoR try and find a commander in WvW, you might be lucky if there is one on a map these days. Go to an event you can see 15-20 in line of sight without opening the map. Good commanders who led WvWvW leave the game faster and faster.

I am just as frustrated as everyone else, I’m tired of the same two maps, I’m tired of the carebear 3 button siege mentality and the karma train that never stops and certainly never fights. I’m tired of 2 rare drops and 1 exotic in WvWvW in 12 months versus more loot than I can carry in living world events (3 exotics and 5 rares in an hour in one memorable session). I’m tired of people ressing off Moas and other crap NPCs, tired of the downed mechanic, tired of Arena Net thinking that the crap they release for WXP ranks actually matters to anyone. And finally I’m jealous of PVE, though I rarely play it, who make me feel like an acne ridden red headed step child who they feel it is enough to hand a stale cookie to once in a blue moon.

Still, ESO isn’t far away. I’ll happily pay them the $15 a month instead of the stupid amounts of money I’ve spent in the gem store in orderto feel like I’m not some second class citizen to the guys who ran CoF to the ground or grind every day in some living world playground.

So Devon I thank you for that, truly – thanks for saving me from spending $80 – $300 a month on your game. You know where I’ll be and what you might need to do in order to get the people like me back. And if it turns out you don’t care, well then I guess we will both be happy

Please have my babies, I’m in love with you.

How to use "Trebuchet Mastery"

Posted by: iAmTheDuke.6201

iAmTheDuke.6201

Just thought i’d throw this out there.

1. Break through a keep
2. Build 5 trebs on the outer depot
3. Spam 2
4. Pat yourself on the back as you don’t have to wait for the enemy to build siege on inner.

Is there plans for open wrold PvP?

in WvW

Posted by: iAmTheDuke.6201

iAmTheDuke.6201

Said it before, saying it again – Reintroduce the real Shatterer event. Where he flies over a zone and corrupt players, ending in an all out battle between corrupted and regular players. The only changes that need to be done compared to the beta event is that the corruption should be visual only, everyone should be upscaled to 80 (like normal WvW) and there should be some sort of auto-balance so that the corrupted and regular players remain roughly the same ratio. Add large sPvP style capping points in important areas that we can fight around. And of course no Eir and Rytlock that walk around insta-killing everyone in sight, like the last time.

It could be an all day event in any random zone, hell even cities. Imagine how fun it would be to PvP in Divinity with Shatterer roaring over our heads?

Sounds fun

I wish all of the organized guilds would just leave T1. I swear, how can you deal with this many terrible players, this much skill lag, and the constant queues?

I mean, is winning really that big of a deal to most people? Because honestly, a server winning is 99% due to coverage, and that’s a very passive thing to hone… at least in open field or lower tiers, what you do as an individual actually matters.

Playing for PPT is pointless. The points will be there whether or not you do anything.

Come to T3-T5 (but not Maguuma). Ask [Agg], they seem to enjoy it. There are actually some quality guilds on servers like YB, Ebay, CD, SoS, etc. If you come down, you’ll get better fights, no queues, less pugs surrounding you and your enemies, and you get to actually make a difference.

Sometimes, [PYRO] is the only offensive force online, and when we take a couple keeps, that’s probably 1/4th of our total PPT for the night. It feels good to actually have something to do with our server’s PPT, and at the same time playing well in open field fights and having fun.

Think about it.

EDIT: I want to reiterate, do not come to Maguuma.

This.

Dragonbrand run head first into arrow carts. So Strong, so Brave.

I one day wish to be just as great.

LOL Yes, I led that charge…we didn’t feel like slow siegeing it with some stupid treb or long range siege to clear the carts in there….and since no one wanted to come out and fight us in the open field we just charged in

We did have a ton of fun fighting the d|erp/vr/pyro guys on Mag’s BL yesterday!! Especially the epic fight in lake tower!

When we switched over to DB BL we ran into BURN I think it was bay…and a 40-50 YB man zerg at DB BL garri…so good fights yesterday!!

Being the one that lead that Mag group, I would say Good Fight…. But I’m not, its unfortunate it got down to the point where you were placing superior AC’s all over the place as soon as you would see us. I’m glad Calvin is teaching you guys well.

Twas fun wiping BP with less numbers though. Hope that playbook helped out.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz EB all Blue and no fights……

Probably shouldn’t have had so many recruitment threads these past few months.

Except FA has had no new recruits, just a bunch of fairweathers who’re logging on while Maguuma’s prematurely wallowing in self-pity, apparently.

You would think the “megazergs” running around would prompt DURP/PYRO to post about farming delicious FA bags, but I’ve yet to see either guild in force in game or in these forums.

Step it up, Mag. I wanna see that #magswag on the field.

D$RP hasn’t been out in force because there are no FA or KN guilds worth fighting. All your server does is drop walls of siege and start boring, protracted battles. Your server is still in the “roll over and die” phase of open field tactics and even TC was a much more interesting engagement. We’ll be out soon. Depending on whether we actually meet an interesting challenge we’ll decide whether to do more than one raid this week.

You should have seen FA Bl on reset, was the most boring thing ever lol.
