Arena Net trying to end her own game

These changes are for casuals and Yak’s bend players. No shock that anet would rather bring stupid stuff like this when wvw should be about fights, not siege and ppt.

The Waypoints need to be changed on this map.

The original intention on the design of the old borderland maps is to have it the way like EBG has it where each side owns its own lane. But because of how the flow of the maps works out, each server can take full control of their own borderland maps because it was more convenient to keep pushing on the same map as the lane you’re defending and squeeze your opponents out of their lane.

In my opinion, the defending team having its only 1 waypoint is good enough. It creates variability and most importantly creates a winner/loser situation on any given time slot of the day. The only way where this can be unfair is if a server grossly out-covers the other two, but then again they shouldn’t be in the tier for long if this was the case.

Oh great, so it’ll work like EBG you say? You’ll have to defend your corner on all four maps? not many server have this type of coverage except t1 and t2 when it comes to NA servers. people already don’t want to defend now you have to do this on 4 maps? Good luck with that. It’ll be karma train central in mostly every tier.

Did they address the fundamental design flaw that is gates that melt way too quickly for any response to reach the towers before they flip?

Even with suckers, oops I mean scouts, standing in a keep it’s almost impossible to defend before it’s capped, and that’s with a waypoint as the 3 minute timer means no one will reach it in time anyway.

Making it worse won’t be anything but promote more karma training and less defending, especially if there are no rewards for defenders.

Spot on.

T4 OC and EU status

in WvW

Hi,

Wanted to see if the OC SEA and EU time activity in T4 is ideal for us to transfer to. Probable servers are looking like: NSP, HoD, and EBay. How’s the action during these times? are there lots of people? are there blobs? Zergs? roaming? Havoc? Looking to transfer from living dead T8 as there is almost literally nothing to do during those times.

If you’re looking for some fun join Maguuma in T3. we’ll cover the transfer cost if you change your mind about moving to t3.

Which server is best for AU WvW?

Stormbluff Isle has a really good oceanic if you’re wanting t3. SoS/Yak’s Bend have decent ones for t2. Crystal Desert has mid sized groups for t4, but they’re more separated into guild groups.

If you want fights come to maguuma cause with more ocx players they can wipe the pvd scrubs on sbi and get mega bags.

First of all, the waypoint for the garri is way to far from the lord room making it very ineffective. Also, East and West keep not having a waypoint makes it even harder to defend and gives the bigger servers with the numbers the advantage. If you are on another map how do you know your keep is contested without the waypoint? Not every server can afford to have scouts on east and west keep 24/7. If this isn’t changed these maps will be a karma trainers paradise and this is exactly what most of the community doesn’t want.
