Alsandar.7420 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I doubt so many of you play WvW seriously. Mag doesn’t beat anyone ever. Because Mag doesn’t fight. Mag runs. That’s the epitome of the cloud and why it succeeds. That’s 💯 why everyone tries to get out of tier 1. Because all the other servers actually want to fight. 3 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone here is QQing about Maguuma so I bet lot of their PvE/PvP players go bathe in the salt and their activity is sky high. Mag has some good roamers and a ton of good responders. Now you can also translate that as zergling for those that respond but back off till they have more. You can get 1v1s, but you should expect 1v5s. If you beat a 1v1 a 1v3 is next followed by a 1v6. All roamers but some had already backed away till more showed. Its just most don't push them and find themselves outnumbered since they didn't. Mag's strength is more will respond. If the side they face doesn't attack and backpedals that will just encourage more responders. Most server have decided then to not to play, instead of lock them EBG and farm there elsewhere. Double-sided sword. Note: As we have discussed the EU to NA issues seem to vary on a number of topics so please share what you see from that side and populations.

Their running strategy has net them 50% more kills than the next highest server in NA though 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheQuickFox.3826 Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Maybe some new, long term WvW rewards and achievements could help the population. Once you have most of the current achievements and WvW legendary armor you're mostly done reward-wise. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only full server and (usually, though not at the moment) the only very high server. Reddit just posted the Maguuma reset queues: nearly 140 people for EBG, all other BGs were near 40. Did any t2 or t3 server queue all its maps on reset? I seriously doubt it unless BG did, since they are still chilling there. More people equals more kills and deaths, that's pretty self evident I think. As for t4, ViP is down there, so...

A couple years ago when BG dominated in T1, the servers in T1 had more people yet they were lower in kills+deaths than T2. That stat requires fighting. There's lots of "not fighting" you can do in WvW even if there are a lot of people, like what happens when timezones are mismatched or when someone sits around and goes to cap a camp every 10m for participation without really playing. I had an account on BG at the time. There was a lot of players standing around semi-afk at the keep in EBG waiting for an opponent to attack. Was incredibly boring. I moved that account off.

T2 and T3 stats have more to do with coverage-mismatching than whether or not people want to fight. In T2, when SOS is most active, the other servers are asleep so its very unlikely for that tier to generate significant K+D compared to T1, where each server there has sizeable NA/EU presence. Also, it's more than plausible to think that the T2 servers are deliberately suppressing their activity so that they don't get promoted to T1.

Sahne.6950 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 (edited) bit late in the discussion :DDD but: 3 Kills per minute...... 4 maps..... that means on average there is less than a single kill happening per map per minute.... in my books thats hella dead.

All the time non stop. That's what this average shows. Let me try again: if you were making 75 cents per minute for every single minute of the week, would the amount you earn be more or less than what you make now? (hint: it nets 7,560 doller/euro per week. That's 30,240 doller/euro per month). and yet that 0.75 dollar/euro is so small a number.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bear.9568 Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 Mag is the only full server and BG the only high pop server. Every other NA server has declined in population. Players are leaving and it's a total bummer that nothing is being done to retain them. Seeing Mag pull Kaining as a link this match should solidify that nothing is going to change.

If you are deliberately tanking, by definition you are significantly reducing your activity, and thus reducing your likelihood of fighting.
