Naxos.2503 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Times like these, there should be a counter team Hunting the gankers.Imagine a party of 5 deadeyes getting the drop on that group : all mark the same target, they all shoot their rotation instantly, immediate kill. and the gank group starts with a handicap of one.

Gop.8713 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 It's all relative. I solo roam bc I enjoy it more than running in groups and for me it's really fun when the other team learns they have to huddle together to survive :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They would travel stealthed while I was just out, seemingly by my lonesome. When an enemy roamer (or 2 or 3) saw me, standing alone on the road, they would assume an easy kill and just leeroy towards me. Those were memorable bags, to be sure.

spectrito.8513 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 What i find funny is that people didnt enjoyed WvW because they were being ganked running back to tag.Little did they know that outside zergs ganking got much worse and much less populatedBut who cares ? what matters is the pip farm xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only Wed. and my 4th acct is up to plat 3 for tickets, the other 3 are done. I may actually make it to the never gets to do anything but daily log in reward acct this week.

schloumou.3982 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Honestly the community that is left, reflects the state of the game. Duel spots are empty and my friendly requests, for some 1v1 fighty fighty, are ignored or if i'm lucky, i get insulted. When every patch caters to people, who have no interest in learning a spec, combat mechanics, or to challange themselves, this is what you get.

kash.9213 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 WvW isn't even open world pvp, you have a lot of safe spots to hang out in and nothing is too far away from anything else. What do expect them to do, not try to get at you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephiroth.4217 Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 its because you're on a mount and mounts require several people to bring one down.I used to enjoy solo roaming too but ganking people 1v1 was unfair... Now that they told me to adapt, we gank 1 person as a squad.You will be alright, just adapt. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kovu.7560 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 If you're solo roaming and get ganked by 3 people, find 5 friends and gank that group back.That's the Blackgate solution.That being said, take it in stride. It should be less of an issue with mounts being a thing and in the end, what're you losing exactly for dying?~ Kovu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeadlySynz.3471 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 That is generally how they work; no interest in a fair fight, and will jump you to kill. Ironically this happened 2 nights ago, we beat them repeatedly, even when they came back with 3x the numbers. The answer now was grab a turtle banner and kill them with that to prove a point. Thus it was done, we left that area of the map; can't justify beating them anymore if they are dying to a turtle banner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DemonSeed.3528 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I think it's magnified at the moment because the problem is compounded by the core skills perma-refresh-skill exploit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
displayname.8315 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 If your solo roaming and die to the first gank attempt it's time to work on your build choices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaijinGuy.8476 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 With WvW populations declining, people have to take whatever kills they can get. Also, don't expect people to show any mercy and don't give it out yourself. I waited for a SoulBeast to finish killing camp mobs before engaging but then that same SoulBeast jumps me while I am fighting camp mobs ... Sucks but it happens.

Traveller.7496 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 It's also somewhat of a test for roamers for not to overextend and fall in their trap. They will run, trying to get you to follow and then have their friends gank you. It's a trap I've fallen a few times as well, trying to get that kill on a fleeing ganker. Fortunately mounts have somewhat saved random people looking to join a bigger group or to defend an objective from these kinds of gank groups.

Sleepwalker.1398 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 As someone wrote in another post, the meta has become stale.You either get 1 shot or mix of hits that you die within few secs or you get these groups with dps and healers.Balance as we know it is very poor.

Nezekan.2671 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Play permastealth Deadeye.Gank low hp people and people busy fighting someone else.When groups jump you simply stealth away and watch a group of people spam their aoe abilities.Bait people into water and show them how Deadeye with Harpoon gun is the strongest underwater class.
