KeyOrion.9506 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 I saw 15 Charr Guardians take on a total of 60 players. Sometimes it comes down to quality not quantity. The 15 Charr Guardians won. The only time we started beating them, is when I called out single T to Target and we whittled them down one by one by one. There's always a tactic or a counter. Sometimes overwhelming firepower on a single target is what it takes. Some of this Permaboon 5 man squads in a zerg….is just one big overlapping overpowered healing shield, invuln, reflect. Although :) I do like the idea of Soulbeasts in large groups kicking all your butts. Allied or enemy. Gives me confidence in ranger overall.

KeyOrion.9506 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 You should have seen the 15 Smurf Asurans all wearing the same armor/outfit/guild colors. That...was a nightmare. Couldn't keep lockon, because they had at least two mesmers continuously vieling them, so we couldn't keep target lock on the one guy that was taking the most damage. Had to ball up and just nuke the living hell on the ground we stood on to take that group down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EremiteAngel.9765 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I saw a 5 man Identical Mirage party once and honestly I would rather fight any other class comp than them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyOrion.9506 Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Saying the best Quality can beat larger numbers. 60 vs 60...it's going to come down to leadership, training, tactics, and strategy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kovu.7560 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Soulbeasts aren't as bad as they used to be nor are they as omnipotent as people are complaining. Soulbeasts are annoying, at best, irrelevant at worst in larger scale fights. They've been designed (whether intended or not) to specialize at roaming and small scale, so of course they're going to be decent at it. If you want to kill a soulbeast bring builds with CC and sustain like those available to engineer and warrior, or bring spike damage and pressure the heck out of them with a thief or mesmer. Heck, despite the condition mitigation and general condi-hate in the meta, condition mirage will still work.Trying to use a Necromancer of any form to counter Soulbeast is just silly. They'll get ripped to shreds before they get within 900 range. Why is this being suggested?~ Kovu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother.1504 Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 1v1 any profession can get owned if skill =\= and you face your hard counter. 5 rangers vs 20 I have to call bs. Whatever people may say about their op l33t skills gw2 wvw has been and remains a numbers game. If the 5 rangers won they probably got lucky kiting a few nubs at a time.

I was strapped down in a sw/sh and m/f. Working as intended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
