I think I got one mailed to me once after a heated WvW exchange.

More mechanics to make people pay attention would be nice. I find the EoD bosses this way, and the alien/contra meta boss in SoTO. I don't think they have the resources to update the starter ones though. Maybe solution is to get rid of them and make them bounties?

Was wondering what's going on. The games are so weird though when both sides have them, but I guess predictably close.

A couple of times? 😂. I haven't seen the duels, not attesting to either of your skills or lack of, but from a ranger perspective, that's hunting a clone a few times to try to hit (and not accidently LB #3'ing into a distort or something from the mesmer itself), and actually finding the smokescale a few times...getting it to lay the field, and hoping GS #3 doesn't glitch if you aren't positioned exactly correct around said field. It's not worth it. Which is why we all went to evade beast or melee untamed instead of the Sic' Em stealth types. If we do want stealth that's the same condi Druid from 10 years ago, which is way easier to position and kite with--that one should be able to win against mes most times but... That just patently false lol. If you instead said make the virt waste burst into the bubble then counter (typically in melee range), then ok--but standing behind a wall and using F skills? 😂 I love ranger takes on here sometimes.

Was almost entirely weapon skins until ~2017---when Fortnite came out. *ominous music*

I think I've died thrice in WvW over the past two days, and all of them to a pull from someone inside a zerg. My survival percentage is roughly half (3 survives out of 6 pulls), but they seem to be reaching farther lately. Or it seems that way. Like, the necro pull reaches from bay wall almost to the stairs now--sometimes in the middle of the stairs--or open field I'm getting pulled at what seems to be 12-1500..it's wild. Tis probably karma from the days I'd run inside of zergs and prelude lash a bunch of poor saps into OH axe #5....

I agree, never have been a fan of buyable legendaries but that method does get around GoB/GoE. It probably only strengthens the argument for the gifts to appear somewhere as a vendor item though--if anything an alternate means using competitive currency would be both a sink and far more engaging than watching a reward track slowly go up by protest dying. Like, for GoB, why not 2-3k skirm tickets, 1k badges of honor, and 20-50g or something? The then GoE could be a bit more expensive as it takes way more time to get. Numbers are rough, but my point is I don't think we should be forcing people to do content for arbitrary reasons. Especially when it's literally one component of 100 or 4,000 in the case of the new spear...

Can go with that--revert the GoB to actually requiring badges and kills or add it to a vendor to get players like that back in PvE where they want to be. Allowing a system where you can auto-attack a guard, other player, etc. one time and get credit then wait in spawn is bad all around.

Being rewarded for intentionally letting people farm you seems like bad practice for the mode, does it not? If this is ok behavior, then adding the GoB to a vendor is a no brainer.

True, this particular individual is seemingly using protest as a means of participation. It's interesting, and not even a meta I knew existed--but it should say a lot about the state of the mode.

Sounds like you been bamboozled Caf. Unless the work here is filling up someone else's 50 invader kills for the week--that's beyond doomer though lmao.

Ah so you haven't met the perma invis thieves yet that don't want to lose so run you into overtime until one of you dies randomly to the fog... Had this happen on auric span during a 3v3 season--was 2 of us chasing 1 person around that was just built for evading, it was both hilarious and not fun in the least.

Not as much as you'd think--team generally wastes this opportunity dying in lanes until you eventually get overwhelmed. I tried climbing this way the longest time and could hold 2 or more on my Druid but would either lose fights elsewhere (as cannot help win fights if bunkering), or lose a mechanic as 90% of the time those are ignored. The mechanic part varies by map..it's easier to get to bell on capricorn than it is say tranquility or even the svanir. This is more reliable. Can intelligently hold far or know when to leave it to go help out elsewhere, and better 'macro' control the map that way. Essentially, I find roamer carries way better than sidenode does--because you can control stupid a lot better.

I'm aware. Gizmos though, not titles. Titles you don't need to sell as it's easy enough to duo to most of those--granted maybe the top 1-3 are sold but think a top 250 or top 100 would be enough for OP, and those aren't ever sold to my knowledge.
