Yeah thanks, Anet. Gandara was perma-stuck in T5 the last matchup due to constantly being outnumbered, except for a quick stint into T4. And now it looks like we're still permastuck down there.

You know, I said we'll deal with it, like we've always done, this isn't madness, this is Gandara, after all.  But this is far from ideal. If players get frustrated by that, it would not surprise me.

I'm so angry and tired, I feel like taking a ban, just to let them know the frustration of trying to play continuously outnumbered. Watching what you've fought for, wiped away easily by linked servers is depressing. I've probably through mine and my son's account spent a thousand pounds a year on cosmetics, stories, expansions and utilities. I'm not wealthy, it's just my hobby. I don't expect a gold card, but when you know you've paid into Anet and are getting kitten for it, it hurts even more. Not because I'm entitled to an easier ride, but that like all of us we should have a fair ride and it's just not happening. 

[medkit 1 has been broken for waaay too long]

Don't take medi-kit away there will be no reason to play scrapper, it's dps and barrier have been nerfed through the floor alongside the massive vitality penalty, the Mechanist is near unusable in wvw and rarely see Holo anymore. But we have so many broken useless mechanics, turrets, gadgets, lack of weapons in comparison to other classes and always stuck with alchemy trait line, almost as sad as Thief's Trickery reliance.

This is becoming ridiculous, listed as full, yet no queues bar first hour of reset. Constantly in T5, if we had numbers surely we would have moved out by now. This is disheartening, having to wade against outnumbered constantly, being swamped by linked servers, this is becoming a really bad joke. Another month of this crap.

[Thoughts on this core hybrid WvW roaming build please]

Been trying to make grenades work and bar setting up barrage it is hit and miss. Environment and players moving, means even with grenadier it's too slow. Haven't reset my armour stats to celestial/grieving, so running dire with undead runes and power trinkets. Without vitality/armour you can't stay in the fight and throw grenades at such close range. What has surprised me is mortar with explosives boosts, of course double pistol is needed too, as is firearms. Alas w/o stability Warriors and Revs can mess you up.
