Guild Wars 2

Player.8373:

Also guilds could do GvG’S easier

this is true, guilds on any tier would be able to GvG each other and not have to wait for RNG matchups

Removing white swords would be a hackers dream…

this is a troll thread right?

Mesmer – Guard – Ele….

To me this is great, watching someone come to WvW then complain they can’t PvE…

insanemaniac.2456:

why did you put cdi in the title i feel duped

CDI is the only thing Dev’s seem to read

So basically just wanna hear what people think about making the OS a megaserver….

Yes, there will be campers killing PvE players and what not but what interests me about the idea is that WvW players who like to duel could go to the OS as a megaserver and duelists from all the servers could be there, could also help generate more OCX/SEA players to actually play the game if we knew we could get fights without going to sPvP..

What are your thoughts about the idea, be civil too about it and with some luck a dev will read this and maybe consider some of the ideas

So basically I’m bored with WvW, the only part of GW2 I actually enjoy…

It’s either I join a zerg and PvD my way around the map, occasionally wiping or getting wiped depending on who has that extra 20 players in the zerg or I roam around chasing people who refuse to fight for over an hour before boredom sets in knowing the best fight was a 1v6 while you were capping your 100th sentry looking for someone… (OCX player)

I want to know, what have people done to bring excitement back to the game for themselves?

Have you got a game you play internally while in WvW? (Eg: 2 people hold the bridge of justice between red keep and mendons)
Or do you roll a trap ranger and pretend to be afk for that greedy thief eyeing you off?

Gimmie some Idea’s please

You hop over to FA and go deep with me and BLNT like the good ole GoM days

:O
FA is fun, have been on that server before just after game release lol, nice community, or atleast being in [uA] was….

Thanks to everyone for the tips tho, I tried a few but naturally being OCX it still didn’t make it enjoyable… I see less and less OCX players every week, no one around to fight I suppose or nothing to do but PvD

How about a system similar to skill points… if enough people commune with the siege, maybe it will turn into a yak???

Icetea.3204:

Personally i don’t think its a hack. There must be a place where you can jump far enough. I mean why should they hack themselves up to this position, if they could hack themselves just into bay?

This reminds of monthy python……perhaps the swallow gripped it by the husk.

Well that would depend if it’s an African swallow or a European swallow!

John Corpening.9847:

Removing white swords from objectives to give defenders a stronger role in alerting their team as well as giving attackers more of a chance to get through having their siege disabled.

This would be a mistake.

Agreed.

Might have 70 people on the map, but only 5 of them care enough to scout and report to comm why there was swords in the first place and after lord rezzing was disabled it would be nice to hold onto what little defense we have left available: Siege disablers and white swords.

By taking away white swords, we would be left with siege disablers… How useful would siege disablers be if towers were being flipped before anyone had a chance to even scout it.

(edit)- Did the Devs join WvW focused guilds and the WvW communities or did they join PvE/PvX guilds for adopt-a-dev?

I would play PvP more instead of dueling and roaming in WvW if PvP wasn’t so build dictated…

Really boring fighting the same builds from the same classes repeatedly every match, much better to roam WvW and have that diversity available!

I agree on what you said, but as someone who transfers alot to find the fights I also have to disagree…

While every community is essentially the same, the fights and the people you fight will always be different everytime you change servers…

I have been GoM>FA>GoM>IOJ>GoM>CD>IOJ and will most likely transfer again if IOJ leaves silver league.

I asked for golem mastery to be removed from the trading post…

The text is just some random kitten I had to think of so I could post the pics lol

Golem mastery is too OP please get rid of it and remove them from trading post, ty.

EFWinters.5421:

No. You will however receive 100g through the in-game mail within 48 hours as a refund for the 4th tag.

how to confirm and claim?

I also have 4 commander tags.

in every season and in every tier there is a server not where it “should be”…

IOJ s1 is good example lol

No longer will that stray warrior banner a lord and deny my WXP and karma and no longer will my enemies boast about that 2 hour garri fight with 15 banners and 200 loot bags because those fights were the worst, I mean seriously, who the hell wants to fight other players, im just there for your karma, let the EoTM people have thier PPT.

Does T1 or T2 have oceanic ques?

Is the roaming good for oceanic times?

Is there Oceanic focused guild groups?

Arghore.8340:

Also, if you build an AC somewhere decently close to the door, you can simply target locations behind the door, through the little slit above every door… no wide monitor or zoom hack required…

There are also spots where you can build the ac on the outside of the wall bout halfway up, jump on the ledge holding the ac and you can see the top of the wall = shoot everything on the wall.

EG: Bay north inner.

El Cid is ghay and lost a quaggan race to RISE….
And our [RISE] vs [TBT] Golem vs Golem showdown I’m pretty sure he cheated!

Hi there,

Curious about guilds out there mostly… (must be wvw raiding guild)
Obviously please don’t post if you are not recruiting.

Please post;

name of guild.
server.
raiding times (is it daily, weekly, NA prime or OCX prime)
If you use teamspeak
If you use guild builds
If you have a reliable driver
Most Importantly How many on average do you run?

Respawn Trap – Triggering the trap opens up a mesmer veil for 5 seconds that teleports enemy players back to spawn.

1) My guild, people I have known for nearly 2 years now make me come back. (WvW guild)

2) Golems and superior siege on the trading post – IMO: Tactics was thrown out when this was implemented (if anyone else remembers being amazed at an omega knowing it cost 5g + SP + MATS)

3) Gates Of Madness.

4) Yes, GoM> FA for commander training > GoM > IOJ for season 1 > GoM again to rejoin old friends > soon to be EU to see some more friends for a week or 2.

All in all: I only play this game for it’s community and to have a chat, this game has little else going it for it now with bigger and better games being released.

I also get the “fake crashes”…

If I alt-tab and get back into game it lets me play crash free until I log off.

For warrior?

Get greatsword, press buttons, stomp/gs 5 away, rinse repeat.

Straegen.2938:

Kill Shot warriors are one of those rare beasts that can neither be ignored or played effectively.

+1 lol

20k killshot highest ever reached for me in exotic gear :/

Zerging = loot bags…

If I wanted fights I would go to PvP due to solo roamers only ever being thief, PU mes or GS warriors..

Sniping zerglings from an enemy zerg is brain numbing too, only so much fun you can have killing people set up for large scale combat > roaming gear and utilities… (feels like a lion vs a house cat)….. Not that it matters that most zerglings usually auto run while you attack em or they just stand still and wait for the death.

phantom.8426:

You wish, I am in EOTM for almost 3 hours and still couldn’t cap a kitten tower

You must be the Red side.

I would also like water balloons, thankful bobbleheads was not banned too.

I feel your pain about the difference in guild raids to pugs zergs…

10 guildies push 15-20 people and win.
20 pugs push onto 20 pugs and the winner is decided by who had the least uplevels lol..

I make the mistake many a time to tell people to kill AC’s in a tower just to die ontop of enemy AC while whole zerg is getting farmed by ac’s trying to kill the lord.

Jeknar.6184:

If I see 1 enemy, I’ll click on him and if I see the 40% condi duration food buff, I’ll simply turn my back and run away because I have no desire of fighting this bullkitten.

Are you saying…. That you only ever fight thieves, greatsword warriors and bearbow rangers?

Edit: I see a few posts of people saying they never fight condi or certain classes…. I think the OP got his answer on why people run so much, it’s cause he’s not a zerker bearbow ranger with 6/6/0/0/2 traits, obviously judging from the posts thats what it requires of our enemies before we decide its a challenging fight.

Even if they changed the timer from 1 hour to 2-3 hours would make a huge difference..

By the time you fully siege up a tower you gotta refresh it all, flip a camp or two, defend from 1 or 2 people then refresh again before actually getting out into the WvW world.

I solo roam on condi necro build with perplex/terrormancer/dumfire build and it’s only cuz I feel like the necro an his condi is the only class able to keep up with PU mesmers and groups of 2-3 thieves trying to gank… under any other class on a power build an im sure PU mesmers and the gajillion thieves would slughter me.

I would like to face new servers cuz that would mean we would be facing higher tiered servers that actually bother to put up a fight after the weekend ends.

Jeknar.6184:

“Yeah dude… GoM have less people than ET and won Bronze League without losing because they are good and you are all bad… Stick with it.”

It’s pretty much what I’m reading from GoM posters…

You’re only reading 10% of the posts then.

In order of what I personally prefer:

Warrior
Guardian
D/D ele
Necro
Engie
Mesmer
thief
ranger

I always focused higher ranked players.

Being on the recieving end sux but it also has a lot of advantages, you just gotta find em.
It would be great if GoM could go up to a higher tier, after just getting back to GoM after last season on IOJ it would be amazing to continue fighting the abundance of roamers you see in silver tier compared to bronze.

That thief that got killed probably only knows thief well enough to press 2 and 5 from time to time.

If people emote spam you, then you’re doing it right cuz if you get stomped and then they all move on then it shows how bad you are, but if they take the effort to emote spam you then you know that either they are bad or you are good.

BUT there are some nice things to do for revenge… Hop on mesmer or thief, go to his spawn and only kill that person over and over till he leaves the map (done this plenty of times)

If you have trouble doing that, then have a commander tag, buy 15 omegas and take everything they own in EB and run defense on it too, very satisfying to watch an enemy zerg dwindle from 50 to about 10 cuz all you did was farm em repeatedly haha

WvW is nothing more than a champion wxp farm.. some commanders make it a loot bag farm which is when you see me zergin otherwise I am normally roaming alone chasing orange swords and ganking zerker eles and rangers trying to make it to their blob…

But yer to me: WvW is for loot, PvP is for fun fights and PvE is that place I go to when I log in.

I solo que in the team arena just to avoid skyhammer and spirit watch, as do a lot of people I noticed, pretty rare to see an actual team anymore and being on a team it’s even rarer to face another team on TS

Roaming is dying, well solo roaming anyway…

Go to a BL and run around for half an hour before finding 5 enemies running together reflipping camps and sentries you have taken, if you engage them from boredom and die then they all throw siege and jump on you.

Go to Eternal Battlegrounds, solo flip some camps while 1 enemy watches you, just as you get it done you get rolled by a 40 man zerg, go flip a sentry then get rolled by 10 man “roaming groups” that emote you after they kill you….

Yer it’s either be apart of a decent WvW guild then raid with them, zerg and get tons of rewards or roam and get laughed at.

Personally I just started getting back into PvP, WvW is just a karma train comparing it to a year ago when it actually felt like a warzone and people wanted to win and not just reflip your own BL keeps every 20 minutes.

I can confirm that running in to small groups of people who enjoy taunting you like they’ve accomplished something is true, but I can also tell you that solo roaming takes practice. I rarely encounter this problem anymore because I’ve been roaming for quite some time. Although I still make mistakes from time to time and have to deal with people like this, it’s a part of my job as a roamer and a scout. I roam on a Necromancer and I can manage to stay alive and avoid being killed even when tapping enemy keeps or flipping fully upgraded camps right under their noses. You just need to know when to do those things. Checking your map constantly and never letting your guard down are two of the best ways to do that. Always check your flanks even when you’re in combat.

Yer I’ve been roaming for about a year now but I don’t roam to help the server, I go looking for a fight, if I see orange swords I’ll head in that direction and try and bait a few people out of the blob to attack me, I think this is why I’m liking PvP a lot lately, there are always challenging fights and people always have to attack you pretty much, can’t be running away just cause the health bar reached 50% and hide in towers with siege.

Number 2 will never happen, especially seeing as though they just removed the ability to see the commander “buff” icon on enemy players.

Never understood why they did that. No one ever complained about their commander buff being visible. It had also made protecting the commander even more important as he would be a high value target.

It was a T1 thing where commanders were specifically targeted and focused to the point where they would no longer pin up.

Eh, doesn’t make a difference as it’s really easy to tell who’s commanding. Just look for the guy constantly at the front of the pack

lol that theory wouldn’t work in lower tiers cuz the zerg usually leads the commander.

Thief….

Thief is so silly right now with it’s new confusion trait + perplex… ontop of stealth.

(coming from a roamer anyway, got no idea about condi’s in groups or zerging)

cheers fot that guys
