Guild Wars 2

Its a preview, not the full expansion… It is like giving you a big watermelon and saying you can only have access to a small slice, knowing if you were to be given access to the whole thing you would eat it all up.

It would be too exploitable for gathering on mounts. Interacting with NPC’s would be ok.

Bring back the Monk before Dervish/Paragon. Make the Monk a full damage/retibution class, because if you go back and be nostalgic 600/55 monks were all you saw in GW, very few real monks were around after the Monk strike…

There’s gonna be more raids and fractals, chill guys ^-^

Maybe they can bring back FoW / UW soon??

Farming Sapphires and Rubies from UW and selling for an insane profit at the beginning of Nightfall release and watching tons of people getting scammed by spammers of “Sapphire’s” when it was “Ice” and “Rubies” when it was “Lilac eyes” they were selling. Couple of my guild members from back then got scammed…

I remember having to go around in wurms in the crystal desert. We had a guild member that we tricked into running out there a couple times and he would instantly die.

Bunny Thumper! GW1 people would remember them… Just give us a hammer and let us go wild!

Lunar Sunset.8742:

Ahhh I remember the first month playing, when I used my FDS. Good tiems.

Still do on my ranger while running through dark places… FDS+Torch=Light the way

Still waiting for the Bunny Thumper for the ranger class to come out… Don’t fail us Anet!

I would like to see the following 2 show up:

pixieish.9627:

Well, just woke up, decided to take a quick camp in the DH BL before I had my tea, and then I was interrupted by an unknown guardian from INC attacking me. Hoping it would be a nice quick easy fight, I initially fought in the circle, only having a couple of vets to still deal with, but while a pesky scout kept blinding me, I slowly began to realize that, no, this wasn’t a fresh 80 guardian new to the game (I suppose the gold armour should’ve tipped me off, but… eh, haven’t had my tea yet.)

I did wish I had the time to take a decent screenshot, though I figured it was a pretty decent fight, though it took rather long too, what with, well, guardian on guardian, and I figured he was more of a defensive type with his greatsword/mace+shield combo (and I was more of a defensive type with a hammer). After I fell back further to the south, at first I was starting to get the impression that the fight would just drag out forever, what with my offensive strategies not quite doing enough damage to him, and both of us getting to full health rather quickly. At one point I even shrugged and tried to run away, figuring he might want to call it a draw, though he was kind of keen on blood, and I suppose it was seeming like I’d lose, what with my health dropping a little further than his.

Perhaps luck played in my part, but I finally managed to get a nice combo worked out and hammered him down. I suppose I am a tad too nice, but I couldn’t really bring myself to finish him off after such an epic fight, so with a salute, I was off to sip tea and post a screenshot that has barely anything to do with the fight whatsoever aside from a snippet of the combat log.

I know who you were fighting, he actually lagged out. We talked this morning about this and he was telling me that he had a fun fight with another guardian. I guess he tried going back out there to find you to fight again.

A little overkill for 15 people… However we welcome it!

Cant Buy or Sell on the BLTC… Error attempting to sell… Please fix this.

Do we have a score update?

Oozo, just wait for Monday-Friday. AR’s presence during the morning when DH/IoJ doesn’t have great numbers, the points will go up to pass DR’s.

DH, Ill be on after this 17 Gigs are redownloaded. Had to uninstall last night and go out and get another SSD today… Grrr I hate missing WvW!!!!!

You’ll love the SSD. Was probably my best upgrade in awhile.

Yeah already have one, just GW2 was getting too big in size and left me with less than a gig to work with. So I uninstalled on my SSD and then reinstalled last night on a Reg hard drive and it took me too long to get into LA/WvW to even play. So got up early and headed out to get another SSD to just have GW2 on and I wont have to worry in the future how big it gets.

DH, Ill be on after this 17 Gigs are redownloaded. Had to uninstall last night and go out and get another SSD today… Grrr I hate missing WvW!!!!!

Great matchup

Hurry everyone, go use your karma on all items that you can buy with karma. It will change in 2 days… blah blah blah. Just play the game, I say. Its too easy to make gold in this game.

DH 95189 +380
GoM 74520 +115
HoD 72716 +200

HH it took 5 of you and lag to take me, yet I dropped your thief to down status in 2 seconds after he scorpion wired me. Then you ran through the portal with your tale between your legs…

btw, to the thief, how can you let a ranger do that to you???? LOLS

This was annoying yesterday, said 3 things in chat and bam suppressed…

all kills don’t count because WvW is a zerg fest unless you are that solo player that tends to pick off that last person of the zerg.

Can you make fractal weapons sellable or be able to be bought for relics (prestine ones)?

I would also say to those low tier servers that don’t have enough people to WvW a lot, encourage fellow server members to go do the jp and you can offer them some silver for their siege if they dont want it. That means more silver for them to pve with and more weapons for us to WvW with.

DH 117.174 +285
GoM 84.207 +290
HoD 78.920 +120

All I have to say HoD/GoM, you woke a sleeping giant by backing us up to only our Keep, Aldons, and SM today. Good Job on the flips, but I think you made DH a little mad after you broke down the “walls” to the keep.

Great Job to DH to all those that responded to the call of getting our stuff back, plus some.

DH 83179 +255
GoM 57405 +250
HoD 55997 +190

Corrected “Walls” lmfao

Score update

HoD 44441 +205
GoM 42788 +195

What’s funny is that most of the servers that are complaining are the same ones that had organized “black outs” so they can get more people onto the server to WvW. Did everyone forget that most of the WvW players took an absence from WvW to go and get their ascended armor or went off to play another game while WvW wasn’t fun? They heard changes were coming, so they came back to try it out.

All I have to say is, you brought this on yourself and now deal with it. The lower tiers are dealing with it (SBI, HoD, ET, etc) with the mass exodus of guilds/players. They are the ones having fun, sitting back having popcorn, and drinking some rum and cokes, laughing their tales off at you guys that are complaining about long queue’s.

Guild’s that thought: “Hey lets go to these top tier servers, it will be more fun, exciting, and have better competition”, you thought wrong. You should have been thinking: “How can we make us as a community/guild better than we are now?” Lower tiers are a lot less zergy, you use more tactics, and the other servers keep you honest. Coming from SBI, I have seen the high tier pain of queue times from the early days to the mass exodus of guilds there. That’s why when we (as a guild) made a decision to move off of SBI (before free transfers were up and WvW points reset were announced), we made the decision to go to a lower tier server like Darkhaven. While SBI will always be called home (because of the community there), we have a new summer home on Darkhaven to WvW on with very little queue times(Friday/Sat night).

Pigmyz.9235:

Hey, i’m taking a break from spvp and wanting to play more worldvworld.
What’s the best servers to go on, world vs world wise?

Thanks.

Any server with a short queue is better than any of the top tier’s atm, however that is just my opinion. Lower tier servers have a lot of open area where you can find yourself with some great 1v1’s and 5v5’s. You hardly run into that 100+ man zerg on any of the maps.

Score Update
DH – 41648 +395
HoD – 28357 +230
GoM – 26900 +70

The jumping puzzles should not even be in the WvW. It hurts the WvW system by having 10-20 people camp it and make queue’s longer for those that actually want to WvW and not babysit a chest.

I want to thank all 3 servers for the fun that we are all having. GoM and HoD, you had me going insane all day with Hooligans/Golanta supply camps and almost 2 times taking out Wildcreek and Klovan while I was on EB. Mad respect for you all. Had a freaking blast out there…

As I have left EB with the rest of the commanders taking over the score is:
DH = 88206 +270
HoD = 55040 +220
GoM = 49670 +205

GottFaust.5297:

Honestly, unless SbI and IoJ lost as many people as they claim, GoM is going to end up in tier 8 within a couple of weeks. .

SBI, has lost a large number of guilds to the T1 and T2 Servers along with Kaineng. We decided to move to a lower tier server to have fun on a more balanced server setting.

Actium.8765:

I can say for sure that the only “guild” transfers I have seen so far is the guild from SBI [INC] that has about 10ish players in it with Commander Bulldog. While not a lot of players [INC] is a good guild and can cause substantial havoc.

Slackers Incorporated [INC] has left some of our brothers and sisters on SBI for them to PvE and will guest there to do our PvE (when guesting hits). On DH, we are going to be WvWing a lot. We wanted to blend in with a new community and picked Darkhaven over our other 2 choices (Kaineng/Maguuma). We are a guild of 70+, but only have approx., 20+ that are active in WvW. I can say so far it has been a lot of fun in EB making some noise, especially last night when we got the inner door of HoD keep to 40% before being noticed. Dang them orange swords! I love trying to keep both GoM and HoD on their toes.

I wish all you guys the best of luck this week and stop camping the jp’s on all 3 servers. If you want to build your community, encourage more people to go there and collect the badges and blueprints. Maybe we can all persuade them to come out get them and commanders/w3er’s throw a little coinage their way for the blueprints if they don’t need them. If you want to build the community, give them an incentive to come. They might like it. That’s all for now, off to cause some havoc on the EB or a BL.

:)
Bulldog

Fun, Fun times… Let the bodies hit the floor… all around… Having a blast on EB tonight, want to say ouch as well as culling killed my party (5-8 people).

From what I saw tonight, its looks like we will be joining you DH for some WvW. Numbers are good, not zergy and looks balanced.

I want to thank all the SoR and TC guys/gals that were pvping on the SoR BL @ Bluebriar. We had a lot of fun both getting killed and killing you all. TC from the bridge and SoR from Bluebrair, it was a ton of fun.

A guildie and I have been talking about servers in general and the overview of each server.

What is the Best NA PvE server in your opinion? Please give the reasons why you think your server choice is the best for PvE.

Anvil Rock / Blackgate / Borlis Pass / Crystal Desert / Darkhaven / Devona’s Rest / Dragonbrand / Ehmry Bay / Eredon Terrace / Ferguson’s Crossing / Fort Aspenwood / Gate of Madness / Henge of Denravi / Isle of Janthir / Jade Quarry / Kaineng / Maguuma / Northern Shiverpeaks / Sanctum of Rall / Sea of Sorrows / Sorrow’s Furnace / Stormbluff Isle / Tarnished Coast / Yak’s Bend

Thank you ANET for putting these into the BLTC Sale for the weekend. 8 New characters slots have been added.

We are still recruiting. Currently recruiting mainly for more PvE with occasional WvW. Looking to round up to 75-100ish members

kKagari.6804:

Funny how actual GW1 fans are most offended by the new changes.

If GW1 fans are so upset about a grind, let them remember how many armor sets GW1 had. Most of which had numerous sets of.
http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Armorer

Even in GvG/HA/RA/TA there was a grind. (Deer rank to Dragon)

When its all said and done, most of us are used to this. No game will just give you everything on a silver platter. FotM is a new way to get gear and not have to spend hours upon hours in Orr competing with bots for drops. It gives us something to do. Heck run fractal lvl1 over and over, gold/exotics will drop and we dont have to compete with bots for the loot. Its one way for anet to look/find out where these bots are and address it.

I actually enjoy FotM, running with guildies and having a blast trying to figure out the quirks of every little map. I enjoy having the different maps and all the programming that anet had to do to put this into place, and this is how far into the release of this game? 3 months, I cant wait to see what they have 1 – 5 years down the line… to all those that are saying “oh im quitting, because of blah blah blah”, have fun with your next game. The long time players will be here, just like most of us were there for GW1 that long time between GW1 and GW2.

Actually I don’t care about the levels as long as my guild is doing it together and having fun. If we have to go back and get a guildie up to a level we will. We are casual gamers that just like to have fun. That is the point of GW2 is to have fun and have a great community to work with.

If we DC in FotM, we need to be able to rejoin our group instead of not being able to get back. It is frustrating for guild members to have to start all over because either the game DC’s you or something else.

The game is a living world, ever changing so there is no endgame. The game evolves with time. The game is meant to be played by all aspects of players. If you didnt have levels in any game it would feel like you are not doing anything or accomplishing something. At least here you have something to look forward to whether its a dungeon armor set, pvp, legendary weapon, map completion, trade post trader. The game is here to allow you to play it how you want to play it.

neon.4863:

The rates are still pretty low, but I agree that it is much better than last time.

a change from .01% to .02% was a nice change

Well, I will be rerolling a different Character… it is a shame that our damage doesn’t come close to most other classes. Instead we have a useless pet to help our damage output every once in a while. Anet, please go back to the drawing board on our damage output. We all want to play this class, however the lack of damage compared to other classes makes us kittened…

I honestly think the OP, needs a cookie… anyone else agree? Everyone send him a chocolate chip cookie ingame… so he can boast more about something irrelevant.

I think they are giving you guys a chance running around in no armor…

I agree, while the orbs were there to give bonus’, I like it better now since it gives you a real feel for how your server matches up against the other servers.
