It was fun farming FA tho. all you needed to do was press one on staff and their ebg map Q melted. Score system should be about pvp not pvd. This is why low skill servers who get farmed like SOS, DB and FA(FA the better of the three but not by much) can survive with their night cap crew.
You need to mix up the match ups a lot more. Things are gonna get stale real quick
This is a PVP gamemode but we all know PVD is what wins the match up. These FA boys been getting wrecked but they can always take their frustrations out on some doors when maguuma sleeps.
I’m on mag and it’s kittened. needs to be taken outta the game.
All the night cap players are panicking. Poor guys :’(
It should act like a veil. 6 seconds of stealth TOPS. people are wping to their spawn with this crap blind siding people making ebg straight cancer.
TC is abusing this big time and it’s literally aids in ebg with their 80 man map q blobs. REMOVE IT NOW!
More Airship strikes and cloaking waters on other maps! yay! just what the doctor ordered.
Cloaking waters and airship strikes are straight cancer and need to go. All it does is gives blob servers like TC easy kills. Get rid of that crap asap.
I don’t know why people complain about Map Q’s. it’s always a good thing in my eyes. The maps being empty should be a concern.
This guy has to be on Yaks bend or NSP. hmm…
Get rid of it. all it does is take people away from real wvw. eotm was brought into the game as a place to go when you’re waiting in Q and we know that’s not an issue anymore.
Get rid of the dbl maps and eotm.
Air keep is a bigger problem because there are walls on inner and outter that cannot be defended. Also, if the enemy can hit double walls you can too which makes it easier for the home players to cap it back .
How has this not been nerfed yet is beyond me. These baby gates pretty much rip all your stab if caught in the middle of them.
The upgrade system still sucks and the waypoints on east keep and west keep not being accessible for the home team is a joke. not being able to use the waypoint after the 3 minute contest is a joke as well. What’s the point in having waypoints? Use the waypoint to farm nodes and that’s it? It’s like every change they made has made the game mode worse. They seems to not care about what all the people in the community have to say. They only listen to t1 na blob commanders and eu blob commanders who suck at this game without their zombie hordes.
“I’ve checked the combat logs and you are a hack. I’ve reported you and sent a picture of it to anet.” That’s what i got the other day. I guess anyone that wins a outnumbered fight is a “hacker” I think there is a lot of gw2 conspiracy theorist out there that actually think that there is a lot of hackers when there’s only a very tiny amount. Most people in this thread need some actual proof so they can back up their crazy claims.
isn’t that naturally happening with people transferring up tiers? the whole system is broken. the game is not about skill it’s more about numbers. blob wars 2 not guild wars 2.
All the legendary commanders are leaving the game or have already left long ago. Not a good sign at all.
Home team needs to be able to use air and fire keep waypoints when they own them and enemy team should still be able to use their lane keep waypoints when they own it. As a home defender it is super hard to travel to the action on the bottom of the map and this could make the bl’s more playable and air and fire keeps more important in the grand scheme of things.
Have you tried running from north keep to the south towers and from the side keeps to the south towers? It’s actually faster to get to both south towers from north keep than it is to get to the south towers from the side keeps.
i tried to get from wk to swt and garri to swt tower with swiftness and no leaps and it was the exact same time to get into the portals. easier to get to the south west camp which can help but wow. Wonder how long it took on the old maps cause i got 1 minute and 47 seconds for both runs. scrap this idea i guess lol.

Sending them back to spawn is a better method regardless of whether this is working or not.
That might work on EB, but would not even be suitable for the old alpine maps. The present Desert Borderland is too big and takes too long to navigate back. Your idea is kittened.
don’t die and you’ll be ok
No. PvP doesn’t have as large of maps as WvW. Doing so would just increase the frustration level.
Maybe people will play better knowing they have to walk so far to get back to the fight.
if they’re not in combat before rez and get hit while rezing you are still able to rez.. this thing needs to be like pvp and just send the fully dead back to spawn. this needs to be fixed asap
the system we have now is a step in the right direction. They just need to modify the yaks for camp, towers and keeps because they’re too high.
PPK won’t make a difference in score at all. tops 10k points which means nothing in the grand scheme of things. ppk needs a buff cause night capping scum are what decides who wins instead of the combat deciding things.
so u think u can just show up 1 hr a day to do some zerging and expect to win the matchup? whats next? 1000 pts per kill? 10k pts per kill?
The reason u are getting extra 7k kill is b/c ppl dont care about dying, once pts system is in ppl will just stay inside their towers and lose no pts to U lol. Now u got no one to kill and no pt to earn.
So you honestly think everyone is gonna hide in their keeps? Like they don’t do that already? they’ll have to ppt some way.
In tier 4 maguuma has 7k more kills than the other servers and 7 thousand points aint making much of a difference in the score. might as well not even put this in the game if pvd and night capping is still what decides who wins which is a joke. 10 points per kill seems about right. 70k can actually make a difference.
No good guild uses druids for a reason.
John Wilson commented on the end of mine earlier. Different game mode dev but atleast someone is watching!
I like how you cry about the rally thing cause it means your blob is gonna get zerg busted.
They end up breaking the game with the update. Go figure.
I’m pretty sure no1 cares about ppt cause it’s super boring.
I have some sympathy with the OP but I don’t want to have to spend 1g+ on an upgrade.
well it’s simple. Spend karma instead of gold and all problems are solved. Make the useless currency somewhat useful. if people don’t upgrade there’s really no point in even going to the bl’s.

Why do I have to PVE to get certain armor sets?
Why do I have to PVE to get certain sigils runes and ascended trinkets?
Why do WvW guilds have to PVE to upgrade their guild halls?
Why do I have to PVE to get Legendary armor?
Why can’t I buy these things with the millions of karma, Thousands of rank up points and thousands badges I have?
Big changes are needed and fast. We don’t wanna PVE anymore.
This thread has me laughing so hard i am crying. Well done!
The old upgrade system was amazing. The only thing that sucked was that it would cost the upgrader gold. Supply use to be important, now it is just there to keep the k train rolling.
So what’s the point of the yellow xp if us wvwers don’t benefit from it? I just don’t get it. I guess we’ll have to grind it out in pve to get mastery’s. no wonder wvw is a ghost town.
SBI also have the asian bannok AoD commander who blobs up during sea but i haven’t seen him in awhile. Probably in pve
just what wvw needed.
t1 and t2 being full is a good thing. SBI should be full too but this is a step in the right direction.
r.i.p
You don’t know what you had till it’s gone
sorry had my PST and PDT times backwards. Silly daylight savings time. ><
Just go with 24hrs later than whatever yours use to be.
oh snap when does that daylight saving thingy happen? lol
It’s actually at 6pm pst(but usually it’s 11 minutes late) time and all keeps and towers have cannons ready to go making it super aids right off the bat.
This^
or at the very least make it only go on a 4-5 second interrupt when interrupted.
Having it & courage go on full Cd when you get hit with a cc before they actually do anything is a major pain in the kitten
(not to mention it’s inconsistent with most other skills in the game)
Bang on! I’ve been interrupted using resolve and it’s led me to death most of the time.
With the regular guardian virtues I can pop them in mid stomp, rez and while in renewed focus while, the dragonhunter virtues cannot be popped when doing these things which severely cripples it in my opinion. I like the elite spec but find that these virtue problems can push people away from using DH.
Is there any new food that has come out with the HoT content that could be used?
Exactly. The NA ladder is more stratified because GW2 has no Oceanic servers and at release had no Asian servers. The players from those regions for the most part played on NA servers, and over time they found themselves moving higher and higher as only a few servers had the off-hours coverage to compete.
Now we’re at a point where outside a guild here and there almost all of the SEA/OCX guilds are clustered in T1-2. If those players spread themselves out, the top four tiers of the NA ladder would be reasonably balanced. But it is not in the interest of the SEA/OCX players to scatter, because there is not enough of them to populate four tiers. And despite the meme that they only want to PVD, that is not true. They want to have people to fight.
If those off hours guilds wanna fight people why did a guilds like OG join SBI that already has a stacked ocx/sea? Surely they wanted a challenge.
Can we maybe get a response on whether or not the proofs will be awarded for ranks already earned, or only for new ranks gained after HoT hits.

Still need to add a waypoint on east and west keep. good changes listed so far though.
