I just manged to plant 31 arrowcarts on the north gate of SM. 15 on the ramparts 10 below and 6 on the third tier. All were able to hit the gate where they were placed.

Note: Just because they arent built doesnt mean they cannot be built. The siege limit was not hit due to AC’s now being able to hit for 3500 range while the siege limit range is per 1000(or there about). Im fairly certain I could place more on the upper tier where the Cannon is also that can hit. (edit: I just placed 6)

Rampart – 15 AC – http://i.imgur.com/eG0HJVS.jpg
Below – 10 AC – http://i.imgur.com/aWN3vWT.jpg
3rd Tier – 6 AC – http://i.imgur.com/3kzw56n.jpg

THIS IS WHAT WE WANT!

I can see how having 30+ people defending each gate of Stonemist with an arrow cart would be overpowered. When there are 90+ people in Stonemist, I should be able to take it with rams or golems.

The problem you have is that the 10 below that wall is more than enough to stop anything breaking that gate and a Treb on the third tier is a counter to practically all siege.

“We’re luvin it!”

10 arrow carts were enough to drop any rams or golems beforehand too. Like, I get that the arrow cart change could be overboard (80% is a big leap) but before one arrow cart couldn’t punch through my guardian’s passive regen. Either way, contemplating scenarios of 30 arrow carts manned at one gate of Stonemist is.. not at all relevant (unless that’s actually somethin that happens in tier 1? – before the patch we found 4 arrow carts + 1 superior stopped 9 golems with a lil’ over 50% of reinforced gate left).

Curiously enough, it’d be moving to higher tiers not lower ones. He’s from T8 (Ferguson’s Crossing, if I recall correctly). You’re fighting him right now, in fact!

Hey KWBH, have you considered going up to join SF? They were looking for night time crew.

It won’t stay balanced for long.

based on what? all 3 servers are still within 2k of each other after 5 days.

the only thing that would unbalance the tier is a large guild like this transferring over and breaking the equilibrium.

I fought when we were locked with AR and BP for nearly 2 months and Darkheaven/Dragonbrand for a month in those "Balanced’ match up.

Either one side get transfers or the 2 server gang up on 1. Animosity escalate pretty quickly. NSP always seemed to get all the hate. Maybe now that the peoples causing internal drama in game or on the forums are gone we might be able to rebuild

Yeah, things change so enjoy the good times while they last =)

looking to move to a server anywhere from a tier 5 to tier 7

Your guild will be the biggest WvW guild BY FAR in those tiers.

Even the T2 servers have very few WvW guilds that have 15 people online 24 hours a day.

If you go to any of these lower tiers, you will be bored to death pretty soon, I think.

cafard.8953:

Well, i’m not generally doing this, but you could do worse than moving to <INSERT SERVER NAME HERE>.

We have a healthy, friendly and very skilled community, very little queues in your time-zone, and you would be welcome with lots of <GOLD/PRESENTS/KISSES>. Our community is widely acknowledged as one of the best in <EU/NA/TEH INTERNETZ> and all our opponents agree that they wish they were us. We fight our opposition using our <TEAMWORK/COORDINATION/MAD SKILLZ> even though all they can do in return is <ZERG/BLOB>. We never do that because we’re special and, dare i say, pretty unique in the entire GW2 server ecosystem. If we only ever lose a matchup, it’s because of such <UNFAIR TACTICS/CHEATS> as <SPEEDHAX/PVDOOR>. We are also home to <INSERT RANDOM GUILD TAGS YOUR MAN NEVER HEARD OF> whose <BROTHER-IN-ARMS/BFF/SIDEKICK> you would have the chance to become.

Now i hope you find a suitable home, and wouldn’t want to feel pushy, so feel free to go wherever suits your guild best. In my opinion, that would just happen to be <INSERT SERVER NAME HERE>.

kitten! That sounds great! I’m joining these guys right away!

naphack.9346:

Ruprect.7260:

Yeah, the whole patch was stupid. with all of the changes together it is not even possible to siege a keep anymore. We tried numerous times last night, funny enough we were trying in a relatively small group and it was the zerg that seems to have benefitted from these changes lol. We were not able to treb the walls down as they would just counter treb and because it only takes 3-4 treb shots to kill our trebs, our trebs were gone long before we could turn them to stop the counter treb. We were lucky to hit a wall 3-4 times before our trebs went down.

SO cata the walls you say. I say a traited AC now out ranges a cata and the catas are down in before they are built.

So use rams you say, lol, just lol at that. Basically there is no way to siege a keep anymore unless you have a large enough zerg to rush in and take out the enemy zerg to stop their couter siege.

Thanks Anet. WvW was near empty last night when it used to have a short queue most times. At least I can stand in a tower with an traited AC and get a few bags.

If you ball up in plain sight and wait for them to turn their treb before starting to build, that’s your problem. You only need to know where their treb is, then you can take it out with a treb built behind some obstacle where they don’t have vision or at the least built where their treb is not facing at the moment. Think strategically. They are inside, you are outside. They are confined in a tower, while you basically have the whole map to perform your movements. Just kill their siege, they need to rebuild, kill it again, their supply is gone.
I don’t see any reason to build catapults now, tho :>

Catas by the wall don’t make much sense anymore but building them on elevated terrain gives them extra range that should keep them out of arrow carts just fine.

@SPCA Mesmers, come on, lost to Ranger/Ele
tsk tsk

Ya it was pretty fail. I was trying out a new mantra healing build with some clerics gear…and man was it bad. Poor waff.

Yeah I am trying a troll spirit build. Cya out there.

I feel sufficiently trolled. I’m terrible at guardian.

Man, I wanna give thanks. Gates of Madness has had a string of excellent matches in tier 7 and 8 for a while. This one though is especially close. It’s Wednesday and first place and third place is less than 2k points away.

Good times, everyone!

Goloith.6349:

Syn.3459:

yes they want us to stop playing mesmers, it’s not a rediculous claim at all, it’s totally what they want us to do

mesmers are the ONLY class to use confusion and it’s our only way to deal damage, we’re also the only class to use retaliation so surely it has something to do with them wanting to slowly remove the class from the game

i hope for your sake you aren’t serious or think i am

Your kidding right? Engineer has Prybar and it was wrecking faces in WvW.

I think if you read the last line again you’ll realize he was kidding. I’ll be honest, until I read that line I wasn’t sure if he was kiddin or not. I expect all sorts on the Internet.

It’s true, mesmers are much too common in WvW. They have outnumbered warriors and rangers for too long.

In my imaginary world, PAXA and XOXO are best friends because of their love of X’s in guild tags. In the real world, PAXA and XOXO are best friends because of their love of letting people know how thoroughly unimpressed they are.

It’s basically the same thing, I think.

No one cares. Have fun buried forever in t8 and away from our forums.

Play nice now, soon we will be back

Hope so! Same with Eredon Terrace and Ferguson’s Crossing. It would be neat to see some more regular server exchanges between tier 7 and 8.

Not a bad list!

My biggest dream is to be able to manage party/whisper with right click and kick people from the party like in PvE.

It seems GoM is the new IoJ butttt at least nsp have enough to keep them occupied, for the most part in oceanic times.
At least prime time is a pretty even playing field.
I personally would like to see all of these “boss roaming groups” that DR seems to talk about. All I’ve been witness to so far is unorganized 4-12 man fights which are by all means not bad but I wanna see the big baddies more

There’s a few things I’d like to say about this match up though… :
Not as much trash talk as I’d like & or I’m accustomed to
Needs more LOLUMAD/BAD
The most important…. GIFs and memes!!!!!!!! WHUR DEY AT SON!?

I end my piece with a simple yet eloquent
GET@ME BADZ!!!!!!

Yeah, this match-up seems lighter on the roaming groups than what I was hoping for. Even a few of our old foes from NSP that we were looking forward to fighting again seem to be sitting in zergs more and roaming less. I did manage to get a good 1v1 with a Btsy and a 2v2 with those EDGE guys, but that’s about it. Everyone else seems eager to duck into guards or their zerg at the first sign of trouble.

Still hoping to catch Oozo’s crew out in the field and see how we stack up against them. And XOXO/SPCA… where y’at? I miss PAXA

I’ve killed many a RH but I haven’t seen you and your more organized group yet… It’s a shame. From what I’ve seen us and SPCA like to play in GoM’s BL, and we rarely if ever go to EB, so that could account for why we aren’t meeting each other in a loving embrace.

<3

Ah, well that’s the problem then. When Pierre’s not running around the map with his new Commander Zerg Zerg dorito up, we’re usually doing stuff in the other borderlands. As for EB, we avoid that place like the plague. We’ll have to make it a point to hang out in our own BL more often. We’ve got some new blood in the guild, and there’s no better way to get everyone up to speed than by throwing ourselves at some other strong roaming groups until we get it right.

I’m pretty sure I’m #1 killer of RH.

Oozo.7856:

bokkieskitten.8023:

There is quite a few DR, that have a lack of maturity and it’s really getting on my nerves.

I instruct my troops to be polite and respectful of the people they kill. Ending with /bow or /salute. No dancing, no laughing, no jumping and utterly NO teabagging. I want them to be honourable.

Learn some honour people, it will earn you respect.

Here I am being teabagged….classy.

There are a couple of people from AD who have a bad habit of dong this. I’ll ask them to stop. However, people are free to do what they want to do. This is a game. I’d suggest not taking things like this personally.

Also, every server has people who do that not just DR.

side note: Is it possible to be tea-bagged by a female toon?

It’s hard to generalize for servers, Lili. I mean, my guild have sometimes uses emotes for whatever reason on corpses. I haven’t told them to stop (unless we are to move out and they’re being tied up for no reason with emote nonsense). It’s not my favourite thing but I’m not objecting to it.

I am quick to watch that people are polite and respectful in what they say though. If RH are being disrespectful or harassing people, let me know!

Time for my first forum post for the match up lol.

But, this has been (to me) one of the funnest and even match ups we have had in a while.
Everyone is very close in points, and anything thing can happen. Makes me wanna drop everything just to play more.
Really enjoy GoM’s massive and unnecessary golem rushes with like 20+ golems! lol. Never ending fights over Stone Mist, not to the point were we lose in one rush but yet still gives us a run for our money.
But lets keep going, Good luck to everyone

I agree and last night was no exception. I have never seen so many people in such a hurry to get to SM from their Vally keep. I set us (AD/BSTY/NoQQ) up as a blocking force so our friends inside of SM could take SM while we did our best to hold you off. Some really nice fights in front of your Valley Keep & a “BIG” thanks to our guys inside of SM for taking it. All round good fun & nice fights.

Alright, someone has to explain AD/BSTY/NoQQ to me. How are you guys not in one guild? It’s like I never see the guild tags apart!

In essence we are “ONE” guild but we have decided to keep each of our own guild tags. I won’t go into the all the reasons why but we field anywhere from 1 to 13ish most nights(sometimes a little more). Plus having multiple guild names makes us look like PUGS which has a quality all of it own. So our name of AD/BSTY/NoQQ is our combined guild tag

TeamBattleAxe.3901:

Just about every time I’ve logged in this weekend, we’ve owned SM. Obviously, Zombieland is doing something right. Besides… this story is lacking some details. Was that tower upgraded? A fully fortified Wildcreek is an absolute nightmare to deal with. Was anyone else working on SM at the time? A golem rush on a tough tower while a separate group takes down a wall-less paper SM is a good play.

At any rate, calling them out on the forums is no good. Just send them a whisper if you don’t agree with a plan. They might be seeing something you don’t, or vice versa.

No they don’t. In fact we normally capture SM when the GoM commanders are on, Knighpiepoe, or something like that, and The Old Spartan in especial.

While i witnessed they leaving because the moment we get SM 4 commanders pop in the mid of castle and begin to give strange orders like “attacking Durius while SM, with normal gates/walls, is being trebbed from Klovan”

Yesterday we captured SM, had ppl running supplies, 80% of the upgrade completed.
Our outter walls were down, and we called for help.(had like 15 players there)

We had every thing to hold SM, we had sieges inside lord room and upgrade would be going up in 5 minutes.
They gave orders to abandon SM and attack Meldon that were being taken 1 minute before.

Their explanation: it would be “easy” to take back SM.

They ended wasting 30 minutes on that in the mean time we lost SM and Anzalia. they lost more 30 minutes to take back anzalia and went to to enemy land to be wiped 10 times in a row without taking a single tower.
Went to SM and got wiped 5 times did this kittenty golem rush taking only one tower, and immediatly losing it after that because they didn’t defend.

After that one commander log out and the other ppl just didn’t follow his orders anymore.

From 310 points per tick we went to 200 because of them.(yes. it’s their fault because they just pop up commander when we already have commanders, 2 commanders giving completely different orders will never work)

They don’t do separate play. Their average plan for what i’ve seen is: throw players and sieges at the enemy, if it doesn’t work throw more.

I don’t think they are a good thing to GoM.

When i asked them wtf they were doing they answer with a “Shhhh GoM learn to play”
followed by a “you don’t like what we are doing? buy a commander for yourself”.

That’s why i HATE the commanders system in this game. This puts a bunch of PVE players in the place to command a PVP group.(pve because the only kinda of player i see throwing down 30 g like it’s nothing or is a bot or a 100% farmer)

This only ends in pathetic results.

In fact i’m kinda of tired of seeing commanders with legendaries that never upgrade towers/keeps. it’s almost funny how the “normal” players who doesn’t have legendaries/money to waste are the ones who actually do that.

i didnt bother reading this because it was too long and im but just a puppy

Me too… except for the puppy part.

I read it, everyone on our server has a part and a voice and I want us to hear from every one of our players.

I’ll try to get in touch with you when I got the time to see what we can do to get your concerns addressed, Div.

I can’t say I’m itching to have more PvE interactions in WvW (like apparently being unable to solo a dolyak unless I pull it to a sentry – that’s way too much exploitin AI PvE nonsense for me).

Chiolas.1326:

Yes Devon really seems focused , he announced a bunch of unneeded changes to class balance (I’m not saying if they’re good or not, I don’t care, but change just for the sake of filling the changelog while overlooking the real problems is silly)

Maybe the plan is to not announce the real changes yet, so we all rage now, then when they do the big changes we will all be super happy… or maybe not

You really think Devon makes the class changes?

I don’t want to know all the things the original poster is proposing. It really just seems like a tier 1 problem where I imagine all you guys worry about is making sure that every map is as close to full as possible.

Last thing I want to do is come to the forums and listen to people whine “Well, you had 65 people on the map but we only had 63” or post screenshots of “our 41 people > your 44”.

You want to know how many people are on a map? Scout them. You want to get out of a queue? Spread to a server that doesn’t have them (which no one will do because the goal is to have as much coverage as the queues allow).

pita spoon.5708:

TeamBattleAxe.3901:

Not sure which guild(s) pulled this off. Going for the throat… lol.

not sure who did this but taking a keep before taking towers.. that’s something i would try to do. wonder if it was HH executing that or taking part in it.

as for the WvW guild that transfered from HoD. I wasn’t there for that but sometimes you bring a large force to a location to draw enemy forces there and use a small force to gain the objective that you want. when people see 20+ golems marching to thier land they sometimes freak and want to destroy them and call the server to do so leaving other points undefended.

but my question is why did they transfer to GoM. rumor has it they hate all of gom so why not transfer to FC or ET. anytime im in EB and reading the chat almost seems like they are talking down to GoM. im not sure what was or is going on at the time but when i come to eb and read " GOM " then the next line says " stay 2 feet away from me " well it doesn’t sound too friendly, and our pve players that come to wvw might find it offensive and quit playing wvw. now that the super mario box is over i see a huge difference in wvw. i would rather keep our pve community that plays wvw and has helped us win matches than to have a wvw guild that supposedly hates GoM.

They don’t hate our server (which is why they transferred to it).

This is my advice for all situations involving a commander and not to this specific situation.

A commander should never be rude or talk down to people. That’s the fastest way to end up alone in the field wondering why no one follows you. If you think it’s a really big problem and somethin needs to get done, try talking privately (and politely) to the commander about what you think the problem is. Can take screenshots and we can bring it up at the meeting, though we ultimately can’t make anyone change their behaviour.

I can’t speak to which commanders you are talking about or what strategies went through their head but usually commanders that are angry ‘cause they’re doin somethin that doesn’t work learn better or quit playing, I find. On top of that I find golem rushes kinda binary. Either they work and you’re in through the gates or all the golems melt. Not every golem rush can succeed. A couple days ago we managed to wipe 9 of NSP’s golem at our garrison just because we correctly guessed which gate they were gonna attack (all 4-5 arrow carts were at one gate). Life goes on for us and NSP. WvW is a lot about trying things. Sometime these things work.

Revealed is 3 seconds then 4 seconds and then 3 seconds again.

No patch is the end of the world, friend.

And I can’t believe the ppl on the livestream weren’t more outspoken about some of these changes. They were just yawning and saying yes all the time. You have the opportunity to talk to them directly and start good discussions, but you don’t? It’s like having the opportunity to talk to the president, and then your only question is “what did you eat this morning?”

Oh well

I agree with this, the people on the stream were pretty terrible. At least in the patch before there was someone bold enough to ask, “Isn’t that a bit strong?”.

Huge changes to wvw and they presenters were just like “ok”.

I think the WvW community should have a representative on the panel.

I’d love for that happen, and you’re correct, you have people who refuse to ask difficult questions to the devs every time they do this. I mean after the devs left you heard them chime in a bit more about the changes. They should have done that while the devs were on.

The devs were over time as it was.

All that’s holdin the State of the Game back is volunteers, apparently

http://www.guildwars2guru.com/forum-8/announcement-14-were-looking-for-a-wvw-state-of-the-game-host/

Edit: Really, I’m imaging a WvW State of the Game being three guys from tier 1 server hopping guilds complaining about zergs, skill lag, asking about queues, and what can be done to save the dead servers below tier 2.

My apologies, I was translating my intent into something a forum regular would understand, as I don’t speak Brah, and wanted to convey my point as succinctly as possible.

I hope the influx of eager female groupies in the wake of your astounding move to T6 is everything you hope it to be. In the mean time, continue your attempts to elicit incendiary reactions with your hyperbole.

It’s positively adorable.

You seem kind of mad. You realize he wasn’t trolling, as much as just joking around right? Even with his secondary response, yet your responses act as if he’s declared some hostile intent. Methinks your subconscious is bleeding outside.

We’re here to have fun sir, and we are (relatively) having fun in t7. We’ll move up to t6 when it’s happens. Until then, try not to get bummed, we don’t hate you.

Seriously though, elitism is oldhat.

That is the great things about T7 forums Vox they are pretty predictable…

Post something talking real smack: elicits mad response, insults
Post something talking fake smack, just in good fun: elicits mad response, insults
Post something with what you believe to be fact: elicits mad response, insults
Post something that is fact: elicits mad response, insults
Post an opinion: elicits mad response, insults
Post a score update (as either winning team or winning PPT): elicits mad response, insults
Post any type of screen or video: elicits mad response, insults, critique of play/method/build/execution (how one activates skills), and whether or not the surrounding dots/players qualifies as being: solo/roaming/zerging
And finally….Post something that is so ridiculous it would have to be taken as a joke to anyone no matter the severity of kitten they thought they had suffered: elicits mad response, insults
Post another followup, blatantly ignorant thinking maybe they will understand no one is this dense: Get reported, elicits mad response, insults

Though, on the mesmer forums they gave confirmation that they were aware of the issue of map completion stars and clones back in like October. Hope this gets fixed (it’s a lil’ more serious) soon.

I feel like no matter what the map limit is, people will transfer to the bandwagon servers to fill it. People want to have a full map 24/7 and then you end up with posts complainin the map is full 24/7.

WvW ranks shouldn’t be super required. There’s more than enough of a gear grind as it is and geared level 80’s have enough of an advantage over uplevel’ed characters to flatter egos.

Just wanted to send a shoutout to NSP and HoD, it has been an interesting matchup. Went stale unfortunately pretty fast, also not sure what exactly is going on with HoD but the lack of effort and/or participation is fairly evident.

Props to both servers for making it seem like SF are the “good guys”, I feel as though we should send you both to some Dr. Phil sessions….Also we can safely say that those “legendary T7 small roaming groups” loosely translate into: “we think 3-5 v 1-2 is better than 20v5” (ironyyyyyyyyyyy).

In all seriousness, this has been awfulllllllllllllllllllll, and I do mean aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwwwwfulllllllllllll….Only interesting thing as been the new tactics that come with each tier, the truly good players you guys do really have, and backcapping stuff that NSP euro kids have been day capping.

Farewell T7, as it looks as if those with their degree in glicko-ology are saying we are headed for T6 this week…Not sure myself, but I rarely look at that stuff.

PS: it would seem that you guys have more than your fair share of ladies (maybe more so on NSP), to that SF would like to extend an invitation for them to: “drop the zeros and get with the heros”, the rocket ship is boarding soon ladies, don’t miss the flight to T6.

Awful? I don’t think I’ve seen anything more awful in Guild Wars 2 than this post.

Also, unless things drastically change, you’re not goin up a tier this week.

Oh hai there lil fella. Funny retort, did your bum bum get hurt by my post? Did you misread the fact that I said people keep saying we are going up but I do not keep up with it? Did you miss the joking tone of my post? Do you think everything on the net is true and accurate and sarcasm is non-existent? Are you still upset that you rightfully got ousted from T7? Is T8 no fun, cause I can assure you T7 is cruise control for us? We would gladly like to ruin your WvW experience given the chance since “that is what we do”.

And finally, you seem to have a sandy kitten, would you like some cream to apply?

Weird, that’s two posts where you aren’t right about anything. Why is only one of us writing essays?

That don’t seem right. Give necros their hit points!

Every time I read about this supposed FC/GoM tag-teaming, I QQ inside. Because GoM and ET have never, ever both run up FCBL at the same time, have they?

Oh. Wait.

There’s no tag-teaming. There’s no alliance. There’s no conspiracy. ET just has blood in the water and we’re all circling it at the moment. And, yeah, we lost our upgraded Bay and Garrison to GoM. But I’m okay with that when I get to wipe a whole, whole, whole bunch of ET.

see that’s the thing I don’t understand, you leave the door wide open for GoM to take Garrison and Bay but stop ET from taking 1 hill (seems like they left the door wide open for their garrison for you to take as well) im not saying their is an alliance going on but it sure does seem like it, I very rarely see GoM and FC hit each others BL but if they do its just 1 tower or camps.

Don’t even suggest that it ‘looks’ like an alliance. Because it most certainly is not. With all of the blood, sweat and love we’ve put into upgrading our structures, we would not willing give them up to anyone. We do not play that way.

Bay, hills…. Garrison… so many upgrades lost. My heart….Oh my heart…

Lily feels the ebs and flows of WvW most profoundly. It is very moving.

You can track Sorrow’s Furnace rating increases here http://mos.millenium.org/matchups#NA

Because the match in tier 6 is pretty close, Sorrow’s Furnace may be with you for a lil’ while longer.

In the last hour, I’ve defended the inner garrison gate on my borderland from Ferguson’s Crossing and right now we’ve taken Bay and Garrison on their homeland with big orange sword level zergs on both side.

The only crying from either side was the time we mopped the floor with paxa and the tears that followed was.. "omg pew pew cheese op’d mesmer/ thief combos/ we didn’t have our full 5 / insert more tears / ect ect / Whines in whisper.

Other then that one time I think its been rather tear free.

Huh. All the times I’ve been around it’s been pretty fun fights with no floor mopping. Who was it that cried, if I might ask.

Themanbat.3206:

Yes, and I’m sure that makes you feel really special after having run from the fair numbers fights. Now stop with all this attention grubbing. I’m trying to PvE, since killing you guys isn’t enough of a challenge.

It’s funny how when some people are mad they go right to the “you’re bad” card. I think you’re a good player and run the best specc that fits your play style (only time I ever see you is when you’re solo). XOXO has lost plenty times to PAXA, so saying that we aren’t a challenge kinda goes against you… dying to bad players and all.

Also, only time I have run from a fair fight has been when I’ve had a phone call in the middle of a fight. Our groups have never run from a fair fight. Funny how you bring that up though. Hypocrisy is a pretty big pet peeve of mine.

Acts all carebear and stands around with me until others attack me. Then when the others leave and he’s all alone… PEACE OUT!

Don’t get offended by Jscull saying you guys sometimes zerg. It’s just a factual statement.

He didn’t say “sometimes” and your groups have definitely run from some fair fights. Might wanna look a little more into who your new recruits are. Also, I’ve seen PAXA in 15+ groups of people too. Might as well go whine on the forums about it.

You’ve changed, PAXA, it’s like I don’t even know who you are anymore.

We lost our upgraded garrison today too. Life goes on!

I am about to have a permanent shelf to hold the soap if FC continues to keep kicking ET’s butt like this.

Not sure what that means, but yeah we tend to get beat up. I think it’s due to numbers. Every time we get outnumbered. FC tends to be 4-5 to one. And GoM is Legion.

^ No kidding. 0.o

I can’t remember a single battle in the past week where we had equal or more forces than our opponents have had. It’s like everybody suddenly just disappeared from our WvW. Typically, I’ll find small roaming groups around the battlegrounds, which is nice, but they aren’t scouting or doing anything particularly useful except increasing the size of FC’s and GoM’s wallets. In commander-led groups, I typically find about 15 or so. On the other hand, GoM and FC… Wish I could post some pictures from my scouting right now. “Legion” and “4-5 to one” are both understatements.

Eredon Terrace and Ferguson’s Crossing had a pretty wild showing for all of Friday evening. Even when we had a queue on our borderland we couldn’t hold anything on the map.

This is one of the closest 3 matches. Don’t sell anyone short in this match up.

if you’re worried about wxp then you’re doing it wrong.

S’far as i’m concerned you can turn it off – virtually pointless obsessing over it.

It’s not a matter of being worried about wxp. It’s the fact that full wxp gain from objectives/kills never being split directly causes enormous zergs to form for farming, much like karma trains from many months ago.

I haven’t found people play differently after WXP than before. Other than we put the guy with ballista mastery on the ballista and listen to him laugh.

I’m pretty sure Basic’s entire line up is the mesmer, the asura guardian, the asura thief, that other thief. Then again I can’t remember what I had for lunch.

I think our lineup consists of like 1 of each class minus a Ranger lol, also depends on the time, sometimes we’ll run 2 elem, 2 gaurds, 2 necros then 1 of the rest minus ranger.

It feels like I’m seein a lot more of you guys since you transferred. You must be havin fun in your new home, glad it’s workin out for you =)

4 weeks in a kitten row now, facing the same bloody servers…., and still haven’t managed to be swapped location wise, or get my 100% world completion.

Arena net, PLEASE find a way so people who enter WvW have the option to go as combatants or just for the sake of getting their 100% world completions, and make those people unable to kill or be killed..

I’d have my map completion if PvE wasn’t in the way, I mean, why should I have to enter PvE just to get World Completion when I mainly do WvW? Sounds silly when you say it from our point of view, huh?

Yeah that silly mini-game PvE… oh wait… PvE is the MAIN content, with WvW being the mini-game and just one part of the End Game Content.

We don’t have to do sPvP to get map completion, at least not beyond the mists, and I think you are missing the point. You don’t like the “Carebears” running around your maps? Arrange days for map completions for all sides regularly and get it out of the way so you can get back to your WvW SRSBZNS.

Seriously, not everyone wants to play like you do, and there is an obvious challenge in the ranking system that doesn’t allow for reasonable match-ups. You don’t want to hear the complaints? Don’t read the threads.

Seriously, not everyone wants to play like you, and most of the match ups are pretty darn close. You don’t want hear the complaints? Don’t read the threads that are in the WvW forums.

Insane rumor going around and i hope it’s not true i mean HoD is already OP enough as it is being that 1 of them can take on 3 of any NSP and SF players but is it true that XOXO and KING’s leaders r planning on moving their guilds to HoD cause that is utter nonsense if it is so keep an eye out on the rankings if HoD suddenly hits tier 1 again >>

We will be doing no such thing. Rumors are entertaining arent they? By the way a little something you might like:

Ok so you are taking over EB when the map is a ghost town and have almost no resistance. You have far too many Omega their damage is crap for gates. Alpha golems should only use skill 1 to attack it is the fastest rate of dps. You really need to work at having golems stack and port them across the map and to gates. Always clear cannons and oil before moving golems to a gate. If this was in tier one you would not have made it to the first tower

And if tier 1 players were in tier 7, they would have transferred to tier 1 and never taken the keep.

We have actually been in Jade Quarry since beta but I can see why you would say that in general

Yes, I thought that could be the case. My original post said “you” instead of “tier 1 players” but I went back and changed it in case.

The point is though the lower tiers are different. I’ve lead/been part of golem charges and since we don’t have your numbers some of it is finding taking targets when their few forces are occupied (by you or someone else) elsewhere. In that case you just want the golems through the door because 1-2 people on the cannons/oil (the oil is pretty easy to dodge as well) aren’t going to stop you and in 5 minutes their only zerg is going to be there.
