Guild Wars 2

^ WvW is PVE

I don’t think I actually knew what grinding was until I played this game. The gold grind, the profession grind, the map completion grind, badge grind. So much grinding, I haven’t played in a week or so, dd to that jumping puzzle frustration. I really dislike those.

I got to 80, which took way longer than expected and honestly felt like a grind to me, because they were just pointless levels with little reward. But it was necessary to get 80 gear…. get exotics, which was a grind.

Then those world crushing grinds above, no thanks.

Edit: What makes these grinds even worse, is that they aren’t fun and there aren’t any tangible rewards at the end.

They probably think people not queuing for WvW got all of the badges they need. When it’s really just because of poor/drawn-out/lopsided matches.

>Vuh-ho better nerf something

No queues = Not at player cap = Prepare your kitten

The only thing I’m interested in is WvW, I don’t PVE ect. (I finished the story so I have tried it.) Today I didn’t feel the urge to log in and it’s not like I’m playing another game, I would rather not play anything than WvW at the moment. I’m on a ‘winning’ server to.

I’d prefer 3 day matches at most.

Did anyone else stop reading at “ain’t”

Are you forgetting that players fight other players in WvW?

Understanding why people aren’t using the system in place to smooth out WvW populations is what I’m after.

Seriously? You don’t understand why thousands of people interested in WvW from all over the world aren’t collectively dispersing themselves to random servers where a WvW community may not ever exist?

If anet honestly wanted that, they would have some sort of optional tool which asked the player about their play and then recommended/assigned a server.

I’ve been to several several servers where WvW might as well not even exist compared to the top servers, and you wonder why I didn’t stay there waiting for more people to randomly come?

I like 24 hour matches a lot more than this. I would be happy if they move them to 48 or 72 hours to. For a large portion of the week, or 2 weeks servers are just going to sit at spawn.

I transferred from ET to SoS and both sides of that equation are boring.

After reading this, if HoD and SBI aren’t teaming up on JQ I think they really should, at least put more effort into focusing them

I think you can get armor by unlocking chests? Can you transmute these to your actual armor?

The only rewards I’ve seen are bags, glory boosts and rabbit finishers which I have no interest in using.

To me it seems there is every reason to WvW and no reason to sPvP, am I wrong?

30 silver to fix? I have a full set of exotics and it costs me 1 silver and 64 copper after I die.

Not everyone wants to be on a top server, I actually tried out a bottom 6 server and was having fun there. But I play at random times (including night) and it seemed to be a ghost town at a certain hour. There’s noticeable differences playing in the different brackets and I would suggest trying them all out. There’s no reason not to unless you’re an extreme tryhard or very committed to a guild.

I’m thinking, since WvW has a population cap then servers that are constantly jammed 24/7 won’t benefit from recruiting more. In fact, it just adds more people to their queue and increases competition to get into WvW for their server.

ET was recruiting Aussie timezone people

WvW already has an issue with attention kittens within their own server without people trying to make ‘a name’ for themselves with the opposing server.

They offer free transfers, but the only people who don’t have a disincentive to transfer are the independent/solo players. If guilds transfer, they not only have to worry about splitting their base up but they will lose all their upgrades.

If you’re truly bored with WvW, transfer to HoD, afk in their queues and when you get in, just gather / jumping puzzle / troll chat. If I ever get bored with gw2 my last act would be to transfer to the #1 server and do that in windowed mode as I browse the internets.

Set up a public voice server for the zerg / everyone, a lot of the more organized servers have done this. Then just spam the address in /team

The queueing system is just broken.

If they let everyone in you would be complaining about imbalance.

Did he kill any of you?

I think anet must be operating under the assumption that PvPer’s overriding motivation is to have fair and balanced fights. This couldn’t be further from reality.

Devona sounds like a black woman’s name, does anyone else think so?

The stats on them aren’t that great, at least for my build. I’m about 10 or so badges away from getting a dagger, and it’s probably going to be the only bit of + vitality I have or want.
