[Why slot Chilling Fog?]

[Riddle me this....]

My impression from playing mmorpg is that there is a lot of players that have fun running over  a smaller number / weaker (noob) of players. It's pretty similar in WoW for example where you often meet full 40 man groups farming randoms in Alterac Valley for an hour without playing the objectives.

I don't know where the fun is in that because I'd rather lose a match and improve instead of never improving and winning.

Wait WSR can't even keep up with Deso? LoL.

Do you think power virt is superior to power mirage?

To be honest I can't tell. I never liked the mirage gameplay and so I ignored that spec and rather try Chrono stuff than Mirage.

But I'm pretty happy how Power Virtuosa works.

[When is the next no-downstate week?]

No downstate isn't exactly the situation where skill suddenly matters. Tell me why you think that is?

[When is the next no-downstate week?]

Never again would be too early.

[1 person to tap a keep.]

And no roamer will do that, because those perma-tap thieves are uncatchable anyway when you are solo.

Cool, Vabbi's dead now, thanks for killing my world for no reason when it wasn't even performing well to the point where the link should have been removed. It was fine.

Vabbi is dead since those transfers...

Power DH and Power Virtuosa. Works great even against (many) cele builds.

[Pls fix this pathetic meta]

The "so-called-fight-guilds" almost never fought each other, because they knew one of them had to lose. In the end you called it a scrim when you lost so it sounded like training game (or blamed pugs, blamed numbers or blamed pin sniping).
In the end hey all they joined each others guilds and since then they blob through the borderlands.
 

[Pls fix this pathetic meta]

There never were "fight guilds". It was a self-proclaimed label for people thinking they'd be the cool guys because they can stack on a commander and run around the wind mill while they needed a ton of pugs to scout, to run yaks and to build defense so in the end they had something to fight for.

Nades, Barrier, never has been nerfed since.. years ago.

I misquoted based on your avatar.

Harbringer is that type of dumbed down broken, braindead spec that requires very little and gives way too much, but they do have one weakness  - they hate reflects. Trying to outcleanse all Harb's condi burst is usually a thankless task.

I really hate people playing that spec, just as much as I hate permadaze spam from Mesmer dagger, but I learnt to counter both successfully. Worst case scenario nowadays: they'll just try to walk away.

So it's on par with Willbender, Scrapper, Thief, Catalyst and Mesmer you say?

Well he wasn't hiding behind the merlon part of the wall, the running edge of the walls are not that high nor are they evenly placed in height as in some places you can easily just W over it. If you were pushed to one in real life you are most certainly going to trip over it, although in a lot of places particularly the T3 iron upgraded versions of walls it's pretty hard to pull people over it unless there was a lot of momentum generated from the pull(sometimes you get to see people get tossed high into the air because of this).

Also kinda hilarious to state not being able to target an attacker without exposing yourself, when it's a ranger in the video who has access to longbow 5 which doesn't need los and recently buffed for wvw. 🤷‍♂️

What I think is hillarious that your idea is for a ranged class to jump down and give up the main advantage it has in that situation.
It's just pulls that are stupidly designed, not the range class doing "ranged" stuff. No pull should work without a clear LoS. End of story.

they say best defense is offense for a reason. but yea, some players want to rebuild the walls magically during a big battle.

maybe they could add new mounts with defense abilities, or give each profession unique wvw abilities.

But offense wins games while defense wins championships.

[New MMOs Now That WvW Was Murdered?]

And I forgot that Return of Reckoning - the fan made version of Warhammer Online still exists. They always had a better system but it lacks dodge and a similar combat system.

I am not sure I would expect a WvW mode in GW3. And GW3 is 2-20 years away as MMOs go.

But they sure have an arena where you can stand inside your blob and bombing on another blob.

[New MMOs Now That WvW Was Murdered?]

I'm having fun in Conan Exiles PvP, but I don't see any mmorpg out there with something similar to wvw before the patch broke it.

If you have time, you can always do multiple attemps of killing enemies, try to build siege behind the catapults, try to kill catapults, drain supplies, setup defensive siege, log in builds that outreach enemies/can cast from walls or assemble More numbers through communication channels. If you have never done anything else than stay on your current build and suicide casting from the walls, you probably dont have very good understanding of all options available.

 

Even Guild shield gen (40 supply =2 players) outside Tower has like 4000 bubble range and will force attackers to leave catas undefended.

Lot of you guys just need to think more. Era of free wins is over

There is so much weird stuff on this forum, but this post got me. Delusional to the end.

[Wvw update ?????]

Defending was the fun part of wvw. Thanks, Anet you OLAF!

Castles and keeps are there to offer incentive to fight and strategies you wouldnt be able to otherwise experience.

It is true those strategies (siege, time to implement, amount of different tier of objectives, supply count) are rather weak in current balance and should be adjusted. But relying on passive stats is akin to fixing a hole in spaceship with duct tape prior to landing: Not a great idea 

And by strategy you mean putting 4 catas on a wall and bruteforcing into a keep because defensive siege can't hit you and if it hits, it won't hurt you.
That's not exactly something what you need a brain for.

[WTF is Anet doing to WvW?]

I want to meet the person that thinks bruteforcing your way into a keep should be the #1 thing in this game mode.

[Sight distance in WvW]

Since the latest patch the sight in EBG seems to have changed. When you are inside green keep, you can't see from the outer north mortar position to Aldon's Ledge anymore. It seems like the sight distance is halfed to what it was before which makes defending that tower even worse.

[Hot Take: Boon Strips/Corrupts are not the solution.]

As I said in another thread like this.
- bring back Epidemic. Make it corrupt 10-15 boons and let the corruption spread to targets in a 20 radius.
- give us a condition that punishes cleansing (similar to Unstable Affliction from WoW) that deals damage and silences the one cleansing.

Give this to two melee classes not in the meta and to two "more caster" classes not viable in the meta.

 

- give the spellbreaker bubble an additional effect that prevents healing inside the bubble
