[Searching active non-elite WvW world]

Hi peoples,

 

is there a WvW world which has some nice activity going on and where there are open tags appearing often? I am on Aurora Glade and rarely can find bigger groups to have fun with.

But I do not want elite servers, where everything is with mandatory guild entry and voice servers. Am I really searching for a magic unicorn that does not exist? 

 

Stay safe and have fun!

Ani

Nope, Anet has designed this mode for the boonball GvGers and pushed away normal people.

I still love fishing and am really happy they added it, but I can accept it’s overcooked (pun intended)

What? It's the complete opposite, fishing is so basic and undercooked it's BORING.

Great meta and great instanced content but ruined by incompetent Rewards "team" who clearly don't play the game and never bothered to get in touch with the community.

Someone from the team tried to defend Strike rewards on Reddit on a non-Anet account. It was funny.

[What will EoD be remembered for?]

End of Dragons? More like End of Rewards, amirite?

I'll remember it as the expansion that pushed me away from the game.

Same. Abandoned WvW and PvP on top of abandoning rewards and catering to the IDC/IDKs while also trying to force them to interact with players who actually take the game seriously (DE Meta + Strike to get turtle). Also releasing some of the  most conservative, worst looking skins to date that also dye terribly(cantha npcs have better looking skins!), no Kimonos, no Yukatas, no traditional Asian hairstyles. Cash shop outfits are intentionally conservative and not even cute or appealing. Asian cultures have the best looking clothing style and we get ugly rags...

 

There's content but no reason to do any of it after masteries / AP if you don't want a Gen3. They thought Gen3's could carry this expacs entire reward structure. It can't.

Anet again, for the 10th time, forgot they're making a MMO and designed a do it once then done single player expansion.

They really, really need to make some changes to the way they handle balance - at the very least shuffle the team around and change up their toolsets. 

They won't unless it's actively costing them revenue and I don't think it is.

. I just had a 15min fight versus a 6man group that was so tanky that 10-15random players couldnt even DOWN one of them. Ofc i dont want to play anymore after that, it was disgusting. (me in dragon gear hitting them occasionally for 1k or less)

That's their vision for WvW. Deal with it or play another game.

  

On 5/24/2022 at 4:35 PM, Loke.1429 said:

The amount of projectile hate and healing  and blocking and invul and evading and dodging  (etc) and garbage gameplay wvw now can provide is shocking.

Don't forget the mobility. Losing a fight? Np, press your 3 teleport across the map buttons to instantly get away.

 

Everyone I know quit this game due to the devs vision.

Anet wants to make money like any other business.

Doesn't seem that way for a lot of their decisions.

• Extremely conservative covered head to toe skins/outfits
•  Waste time, resources and money to create outfits, have then sit in the DATS for years only to remove them later
• Designing and balancing all their game modes around < 50 people
• Waste resources, time, and money on end game content such as raids and now the new strikes and giving them extremely poor rewards
• Add very little to the cash shop even compared to monthly sub MMOs, F2P ones add 10x the amount of items Anet does, if not more

, they can make it all, they just simply choose not to. Why?

They don't like money. They've had numerous outfits in the DATs then suddenly trashcanned them without ever releasing them.

Instead we got these ridiculous looking outfits that make us look like we belong in a looney parade or a cheap version of sherlock holmes roleplay, like the starborn outfit, just ew.

 

There may or not be certain unnamed individuals in charge of new armor skins that may or may not be having an influence on this.

We can never be sure

but one thing i'm sure is that i will alway get that A-S-S worth of 8g everyday while people bicker to prove the validity of that 60%

So you find a 50/50 chance at 4g/hour worth your time?

Buy 4 accounts, join a pvp lobby and do the pvp / wvw dailes in 20m for 8g instead dude.

Alliances is more likely to happen than removing any kind of gear from WvW. They could have done something like balancing stats/runes/sigils in WvW for almost 10 years already. They didn't. They refused. And it's very unlikely that they ever will.
