nah, its just tough to get up there and theres little point

Commanders used to run around with life steal feasts just so they could reflip a camp before that bug was fixed.

If you believe hard enough, you can kill it. But it usually takes about 5 minutes of believing before it works.

Thats pretty much every match for Deso.

oh great, piken is linked to piken, we're gonna get more threads from piken complaining about piken

Maybe you're not roaming hard enough?

I don't think they've fully described it, but I'm pretty sure its determined over a period of many weeks, maybe even as long as a full link time frame (2 months). Gandara had to tank quite awhile before they opened up. FSP is also unlinked, which does a lot to kill morale.

As best I can tell the beta week servers are just renames of the current servers and players are shuffled around. If you look at the score sites that still work during the betas, you can see where the servers get sorted and at one point in game it would say things like "Desolation has captured Rogues Quarry" even though it was Moogaloo or something. Im guessing that means that the beta matches probably also affect glicko scores, which is why Deso was in T3 and is now in T1. But who knows, since theyre constantly working on it they could be updating that at any given moment for all we know.

I imagine a lot of it was because they created some stupid bug at some point and it was just easier to disable than fix.

TBH, the less cohesive matches are, the quicker it devolves into mindless ppt. If you don't have people who play together and have natural organizational patterns they fall into, it ends up just being one person tagging up for an objective, going until they meet resistance and wipe, and dispersing.

tbh i just assumed you evolved into monkey

You know what, it could be interesting to see stab skills converted to group stunbreaks. Make groups respond to cc instead of trying to keep up it up at all times. That might be interesting to see, though would probably need some better identifying of party members in a large squad.

Endgame wvw is to have multiple alt accounts so that at any given time you can be on a server bandwagoning without transferring with gems.

I agree. Omegas should be repurposed to bomb the circle from the top level of garrison.

Gandara and Abaddon together most likely just results in a boring night for both servers unless they can get Deso or BB in a matchup. Now 3 of those 4 servers on opposing teams in a matchup was probably one of the most unique nights I can remember and its only happened once in the last few years.

I've always thought the introduction of a koolaid man that just blasts through structures to open them up after being held for so long.

WvWers are very good at making their own fun after all these years.

Theres actually a legit way to get up to that one, its just absolutely pointless other than to kitten around.

WvW needs a lot of things. That probably plays at least a small part in why people are doing what they are doing.

They gave us a delicious portal bomb last monday. Boy was that tasty. Just full burn guard unload on portal.

Deso does not have more of a night crew than BB. On the weekend we can kinda put up numbers for awhile but when the week hits we are definitely outnumbered. What deso does have is a bunch of tenacious roamers that specifically banded together years ago to try and resist the BB night crew and we have gotten really good at it. That said, BB activity atm definitely feels like its getting close to needing a link. The linking/unlinking system is wildly insufficient for the current state of the game.

This is the most original thing to happen in wvw since the linking system.

😧 I say! 😧

As a long time JQ I am going to do my duty and spend the next few hours suiciding into proper enemy blobs. For science.

TBH I stopped at the assertion people are defending cheaters. Maybe my experience is abnormal, but I never see anyone do this.
