  1. All I going to say is this, - I have quit playing Mesmer due to, way to many line of sight errors due to invisible barriers in WvW and elsewhere, but WvW predominantly. Either fix the invisible barriers issue - or take line of sight away. When my Asura can reach out and touch an enemy, but there are line of sight errors, when I attack, this is not acceptable under any circumstances
  2. In my experience the quality of help on offer is abysmal ... , and quality Guilds, that can teach, are flippen scarce ... how are guilds supposed to teach that you can consider adequate?To get quality teaching/learning you have to have a good, to very good Guild to start with, the number of such Guilds is dwindling - fast. Number of Gung-Ho here we go, guilds are springing up like mushrooms and disappear as fast. "I am leveling a Guard, what sort of build should I be aiming at?" Typical Answer: "Go Minstrel " Minstrel is a stat set, not a build, so it goes, getting better answers is like pulling teeth. When you get to the third or fourth one, you decide it is way to painful, and you quit.

  4. So if its full, that means everyone is a halfwit...meaning if the OP joins WvW they will become a halfwit too? Did I make it all inclusive, or you just lack somewhat in comprehension. Wake up, drink a cup of strong black coffee and read again. If you do not understand then, then you have my sympathy. You are the one who has my sympathy as you failed to see the sarcasm in my post. -1 point OP: WvW is always worth getting into imo.Unfortunately, forum rules, make a suitable reply not possible. But thanks for your awesome effort, I am sure some appreciate it.
  5. Not on NA servers, the lag, would kill me worse than on EU servers, besides I don't feel like building an account up from scratch again.
  6. Reaper is slow, core guardian is slower, and core mesmer also as slow. If you want to buy into the game, buy both, HoT and PoF, mounts go a long way to making Red BL playable, but there are times that gliding, can save you rear end a beating

  8. There's a revolutionary idea: How about those people just ... shut up? If someone's already left and isn't coming back anyway, their whining has nothing to do with their current experience anymore, obviously. I'm having fun in WvW and judging by our server TS, I'm far from the only one. Judging from the team- and mapchat, too. I'm not saying it's perfect, but there's fun to be had. I can only recommend for ppl to join their server TS, look for a guild with a regular presence on TS, and especially join comms on TS. You are fortunate to have people on your server who can type and use Team and Map chat, I have been on for hours and get 3 lines in the whole period . Seems Discord, Team Speak, or similar, are the communication Gods, these days. its not new, it has always been the major reason for vets to socialize thru those external communication system. Not new, but the tendency to totally ignore the other communication channels is just going from bad to worse. Then you wonder time to time, why no one new joins. They cannot if the road there has be severed, then it is impossible for them to travel it. So we just loose, and loose again - ah well ... , so it goes. i dont wonder because there are those who take time to join. and those who do not, the best i can offer it to not bad mouth them. i like to do my best at the moment, and i expect the same from my guild. hence why i maintain my 10 man core. any more than that, i can't really make meaningful connections. my 10 and others who join us can fight 15 or 20 or 25. thats how effective the voice com is. there is just no better way, unless you seat across each other. You happy with your 10 man group, enjoy. The remaining 50 have no value to you - awesome - exclude them. Have fun when they are no longer there. well its not my problem if they want to do their own thing. i can respect that. and those 50 should be able to handle their own. im happy just having my 3 man team too. we know what we can do. we know what we cant. and i am not obligated to carry anyone in this game. and if the 50 want to join us, ive never turned anyone away. whether im in eu or na. there's only one server i left. I am on the point of leaving so, shortly it will not matter, just a little while and I'll have my Eternity, then I am done. Bye Bye GW2. bye bye then =) you shouldnt force youself to play if your not having fun. i myself played swtr, and wow. and i have multiple games from other platforms from rpg to chess. my wife and i still play diablo 3 and i still pop in for starcraft league every now and then. I have played since the very beginning, and in WvW, I am one off those who been there, done that, got the T-shirt, the DVD, and whatever, and well the current crowd do not know how to play efficiently, and achieve with 20, what they cannot achieve with 60. I have seen all the META's come and go - oh well - guess it is time ... Then told I am an kitten for telling them otherwise well, ppl will do what they want. and if they dont learn from repeated wipes, they're probably not really meant for wvw. it is easy for me, but, to others it is not. and those who find it easy is simply good at other games too. They do what they want, basically because they do not have faith in the ability of the squad, and or commander. Back in the day, we would check which commander was running, and bring what we knew fitted. You don't trust the squad, or the commander, then you bring a build, that you believe gives you the best chance, regardless of the commander or squad. Way it works. Back in the day, we had guilds that daily demonstrated that their method worked. And off duty guild members made up the majority of the zerg. Today you have a bunch of clueless hopefuls, running after a commander. And the commander preys he gets a solid core group, to keep him alive, and that the zerg at least sticks to him mostly. Hell for both the zerg, and the commander. No one wins, not the zerglings, not the commander, not the server, they all losers. Most of us pubs trust the ability of nearly all of our commanders, but it's hard when you have limited play time and spotty afk to be locked into a squad and voice coms, plus you take the hint that they want a different class or whatever. Much truth in that as well ...
  9. Can build Eternity in a month in fractals, cannot do it in 2 years in WvW - sacrifices you make for playing WvW.

  11. I dont think you understand teamplay. Running after someone while not contributing anything because “i only play core ranger and you have to accept me” is not teamplay. Let me ask you this. You are in a football game (not handegg) and 1 player says sorry i only play with my hands and i don’t want to be a goalie but you have to let me play because i showed up. Am i not a teamplayer for not telling him when and where our next match is? You can always make him a ball boy, ... :)
  12. When fighting 50 with 20, the commander, needs to know what he can expect from his squad, the squad must know what the commander, prefers, and they must pick the spot and fight on their terms, not the opposition's terms. The moment you fight on their terms, you have lost it. Equal numbers, you can swing it, if caught out of position if you have a good commander, and a disciplined group, that can hold together.

  14. Sovereign has given you good advice, you can also get gear from temples in Orr, it is just not salvageable for Obsidian Shards. Hook up with guys who are prepared to help you, with the stuff you cannot get yourself. Play and decide. Not a good guy to ask at the moment as I am seriously considering leaving the game behind.
