Guild Wars 2

Mags like to distract players with fightclub; so not everyone gets to participate in getting better scores at WVW. Then again, it was fun fighting them. Very strong ground forces, but very … weird forum warriors.

We’re doing a fight club while 2nd in ppt/score vs the 3rd place in ppt/score while the 1st goes all tryhard. We just like to pvp. Maybe CD will have fun one day~

Didn’t you know that giving people fair fights with equal numbers and a chance to win instead of repeated zergsmashes is a distraction tactic to increase the gap in our PPT?

I don’t know about all this crying and night capping business but I find it cute that people think Maguuma hasn’t been to tier 3 before or something.

John Widdin.9618:

Seriously, how is this not fixed yet?

First rule of Spatial Surge Club is don’t talk about Spatial Surge Club.

What is this.

lani.7431:

Your Sea is tier 8, at best… I win. XD

I’m impressed. Our ten guys are t8! WE’RE DOING IT GUIZ!! MORE BEER.

nope no joke, t4 worthy, gl with that. you can’t even keep us ticking 50 during your prime time.

Is that a challenge? I like challenges.

sdsakuragi.8170:

High Five! But yea, you make a great point, most of the BLs are actually staffed with commanders and guilds who WvW to win, not to just farm badges and WXP.

Though, that being said… http://youtu.be/58_q59y8-Fc

Incoming badges!

Man, we’re not even in first place and ppl complaining about our zergs. I was there in EK DBBL pretty much all night (until we all slept). Watching Too Huge solo that treb inside of outer with an unguarded cannon on outer south gate while tanking like 30 people was honestly one of the best things I’ve ever seen. At the time when you broke through north again with your NNKish zerg, we had 26 people inside (I counted!).

Anyways, mostly EB is where our massive zergs hide. On BLs we tend to be smaller guild based groups and the occasional karmaWPTS-train.

Do u play with ur feet?

Legion pulling overtime on that BL!

We’re all drunk tho

Do u play with ur feet?

Guys, so apparently they don’t want 100 Maguuma posts a day. I herd it last week.

I’m not good at montage like jatska but in loving memory of this matchup~

Maybe we see you in a few weeks. Stay classy!

Our Oceanics consist of drunk/sleep deprived NA people and a few Aussies for the most part.

On reaching Tier 3… again…. Uh… Thanks? It was a matter of time but SoS falling apart sped up that process lol.

You can tell when they say ‘rez me’ and they haven’t hit the bottom yet.

MrKnieves.4162:

Pointing facts is lashing out now? You’re too sensitive.

I love it when people make ironic statements.

ParaldaWind.4523:

None of the things that I suggested needed more than one commander to do. Every server is experiencing the SAB problem. For the first time ever, most of my guild was not in WvW, and they were all in SAB.

However, there were times where you guys clearly had 30-40, would wipe once or twice, and would completely give up for an hour or two. It very clearly was not a numbers issues, because, as I said, we had 10-15 people most of the night, and around 25 when we were at our biggest. I checked this multiple times with /supplyinfo while we were stacking up, and I’m not saying it to make us look better or to make you look worse.

You guys wanted suggestions on how to improve, I gave some. Don’t write them off just because people are doing Super Adventure Box. That’s irrelevant and will not help you improve.

Someone’s kitten y over nothing, lol.

I was there for several hours so I know first hand what the situation was, and there’s some stuff I’m excluding for obvious reasons. But you are free to believe whatever you wish.

You can’t keep lashing out when someone points out the flaws in your strategy and logic. Learn from your mistakes and adapt. Take the advice and work with it. Or don’t, and be farmed.

Makes no difference to us.

Pretty sure that was the 15-20 mixed ME/DFND/PYRO and few public mumblers sitting in CD’s garrison, EK… WK…. Towers…. Camps…. all of last night just chilling (while totally sober!).

See trying hard sucks!!

Trying hard is great! Hats off to the 30+ CD who just kept trying hard all night.

This boss seems impossible.

Evalakitten480:

Wow – One thread for 3 weeks?

Maggies – What happened??

They stopped looking at our threads. Over 70% of the stuff here is infractable lol.

Null Field is long CD and glitchy. Arcane thievery is short range and often simply DOES NOT FUNCTION.
The Mantra is your best cond removal option, tbh, but as with all mantras requires a charge.

Mesmers can have great burst if you trait/gear for it. The problem with mesmers is you have to pick a few things you want to be good at and accept that you will literally suck at everything else. If you want good burst, you will be squishy. If you want to tank, you will suck at damaging. You can be good at damaging and good at avoiding having to tank, but you have a certain “charge up time” which means your burst isn’t a true burst and is avoidable and predictable.

IMO:
Glamour confusion mesmers are OP in zergs, , 1v2+, but crappy in PvE, 1v1, sPvP.
Shatter mesmers are OP in 1v1, sPvP, PvE, but suffer in large zergs and 1v2+.
Immortal build is OP in 1v1, 1v2+, sPvP, but is not useful in PvE or large zergs.

Depending on your play style, you might be perfectly happy in your build. I’m a perfectly happy shatter mesmer. But, I recognize there are some things I’m not so good at.

You are reading far too into this.

If it’s red, it’s dead. Unless it bows/waves/acts cute. Then I might let it pass.

sometimes i lag out when zerg hits enemies and everyone stands still and then suddenly everyone dead and i feel cool like goku

So I stumbled on this thread while searching for something on our own WvW thread. And I am really confused as to why YB is being discussed here. lol

Anyone care to explain what the argument is, cause I am clueless.

They’re fighting because Maguuma says that they’re better than us and some others says that we’re better than them.

Gotcha. Thanks. lol I was kind of surprised at seeing 2+ pages of us being mentioned when we weren’t even playing them. lol

SBI brought it up for reasons we still haven’t established.

How do you feel about the Great Lord Flame Ram?

Also, out of 30 JPs my friends and I did today, they both got 6 Coins while I got 2. I don’t know if this is some serious RNG fail or game just hates me.

Statistics so far show that there is a 1 in 5 chance to obtain a coin from a qualifying chest.

I got a 5% return and two chests that were bugged while my friends got all chests and the predicted 20% return.

Buried Archives and Chaos Crystal Cavern were already open for me today. Last time I did Buried Archives was weeks ago and I had never done Chaos Crystal Cavern before today.

235 135 131

Getting it with AMD Radeon HD 6670
Intel Core i7 CPU
Windows XP 32 Bit @ 3.5 GB RAM cap (don’t laugh)

Graphics settings all on low.

ok i took selfie

I’m crying for you. Real tears.

John Widdin.9618:

Perhaps all the Mazergma comments have warped their perspective.

I’d give them Magolemga.

Story time guiz.

I tend to afk in keeps and upgrade them build siege and crap because I watch too much Netflix. So this same story happens to me like once a day since this matchup started. Yesterday, post patch, I was in WK CD BL with a midget just chillin and like 30+ CD came and knocked it over. The two of us tried but we were defeated! So we went to fully upped EK and sure enough they started huffing and puffing at our north gate. There were 3 of us inside. So what did I do? I asked one of our commanders who I’d seen around for halp from another map.

Me: HALP!
Xush + D/ERP + Pub Mumble: Here I come to save the day!

2 full timers later, people started filtering into EK. Gate was below half and we’d killed one ram but there were still 321231231 CDs outside. We had maybe 15 people inside.

So the CMD who came got us to stack up. We pushed out. I totally expected us to wipe. What did CD do? They turned around, literally, about face, and ran away. So we killed them all because no matter how fast you run, you can’t attack backwards. This then happened like 10 more times and then they gave up.

I hope this answers a lot of questions that have been raised in the past 2 pages of blahblah overwhelming numbers.

Woaden.9425:

I think names should be done away with for enemy servers all together. I wouldn’t even mind if allies displayed no name, and we could see from mousing over or clicking, like with npcs.

I would prefer circles/dots above the enemies head, which would be red/green/blue. The only titles in wvw that anyone cares about are the wvw titles, to see how experienced someone is. So those titles could have a scheme within the circle, like a military rank or somesuch.

You can already turn off names.

Brassnautilus.2941:

There’s no way these name tags interfered with fighting in any way. All the info currently displayed are useful, they give you a little idea of who this guy you were fighting against was. In fact, they are necessary for properly IDing targets in a mixed confrontation.

bottom line, people are just making up excuses for their incompetence. Just like all that QQ on thief forum. Should probably look into the blizzard franchises if you wanted care bear stuff….

I give this troll attempt a C-. Needs more logic, even shady logic, to provoke actual response.

Open on Maguuma atm.

UnrepentantProcrastinator.7420:

Oddly, Spatial Surge now has an enormous AoE effect around your target that only affects structures.

I thought it was pretty amusing during CoE when I could hit half the turrets when the beam only ever touched the Golem boss. Subject Alpha’s spines went down really quick with this as well.

I don’t really know how ANet set out to let Spatial Surge pierce targets and somehow gave it structure-only-AoE…. Weird.

SHHHHH
Rule 1 of Spatial Surge Club:
Don’t Talk about Spatial Surge Club

If I see one more stranger Mag PvE commander say “lolol what is wildcreek??” I might go Nick Cage.

Happens to me too. Enemy or Friendly mesmer. From today’s patch.

Elgwood.8240:

Options, uncheck “Show all player names”

Hit alt to see player nameplates after that.

Understanding the difference between a “Nameplate” and a “Title” is important.

The first time our Mag zerg crashed into CD’s zerg nearly fried my computer. It was glorious.

Pinko.2076:

kerona.3465:

We also sorta stopped trying as a server circa day 2 of this matchup. Which is frustrating.

Where were you yesterday? We started mid-day with the goal of getting waypoints in every CD keep. Super tryhard all around.

I was there, actually. Nadeshiko Naito is my warrior. I helped take WK, Garrison, and was fooling around with EK with a treb with PYRO. It was refreshing to see us taking and holding things instead of just karma training.

We also sorta stopped trying as a server circa day 2 of this matchup. Which is frustrating.

OH yay now I can hit 2 people instead of 1 with Spatial.

It’s something.

So basically we’re getting access to what we already have.

Krash.9486:

OK, but it is still a battle of the haves vs the have nots….if we ever have more then 2 golem at one time it is a major golem rush for us…(I think I have seen 5 max at one time since all the big guilds left)

While you guys have havocs with that many….and as many as 20 with your zergs…..20 gold for one rush!? I have never even had 20 gold total at one time! o.O

Your main commanders don’t at all ask if anyone has any golem blueprints?
I find it really hard to believe that nobody on your server has the coin to throw into a golem. It’s not like it’s hard to come by…

MrKnieves.4162:

My goal was not to fight, it’s not smart to fight against 10 people looking for you anyway, but it was overly fun to say the least. Better keep watching those doors.

You are both dedicated and possibly OCD.

FIVE HOURS!?!?!?

Waffler.1257:

kerona.3465:

Its ok we used to being blamed for everything.

It’s all Maguuma’s fault that this March 26 WvW patch sucks. More progression? That’s the lamest excuse I’ve ever heard for an “expansion’s worth” of content.

Sorry.

Our bad.
