Yeah, this will kill it deader than Herman Cain's presidential campaign.

It truly would be appreciated if someone said something. **The assumption that makes the most sense to me is that alliance work died when the lay offs happened. If so then just say it.** Really, that's all I want. Just be honest with us. If it's no longer on the table, at least we can properly plan to organize entirely on Discord, forever. #Alliances when!? Or If? Or ever?

As usual, there is no communication, except from leakers. For 2 years we have asked, #Alliances when!? and our voices have fallen on deaf ears. The WvW forum lives on salt, lies, and pain.

2 years with no official word here from ANet. #Alliances when!?

# **Balliances** when!?

#Alliances when!? If no alliances, # No End of Dragons!

New patch, no updates, no hope. #Alliances when!?

Also, looking at today's patch notes, the lack of updates, ever.

Because the model and it's movements were originally designed around a higher speed and longer distance jump. And now the gimped stats don't match the animations.

Yes, yes, #Alliances when!?

We require additional ~~pylons~~ maps.

First memory was going in for the 1st of only 2 ever tournaments, just to check it out, as a break from the PvE story and grinding Fractal levels. Was running with a small team hitting camps, and we got resistance from another team. It was more interesting than PvP stand in circles alone, there was back and forth to it, and then I got a freaking Ascended Armor chest off one of the kills (or a level up from that kill, hard to remember for sure). It was my first Ascended Armor, and I had ground to Fractal Level 69 by then. I was now hooked on Havoc. I knew the RNG would be about as bad as Fracals, but at least it wasn't boring. My **BEST** Memory is this still -- {Warning, some language in post is not forum kitten friendly} I don't command often, but I do miss that day. That was great. > @"KrHome.1920" said: > Earliest memory is a balancing state that has never been achieved again since then. > > Things like high, risk high reward and low risk, low reward existed while even at high risk, high reward build fights you had actually time to make decisions as the pacing wasn't absurdly high because cooldowns did matter. Agreed, I do miss the pre-HoT days still.

> @"Dawdler.8521" said: > The real question is how do you get into binding roots as a minstrel support in the first place. Bad situational awareness. Which as it sounds like he is new, is understandable. That takes some time to learn in WvW. Best tip for OP - remember to try and keep up with Zerg, don't be a "tail" and if you do have to run back to tag from spawn, wait for a few others to run with. Also, you're a Mesmer, so when having to get back, swap in Blink and an Invisibility trait. Makes it a lot easier to cover the distance unmolested. Then swap back when you catch up to tag as soon as you can.

> @"Garrus.7403" said: > > @"Sylvyn.4750" said: > > Just remember that we voted on the official Anet poll on this topic several years back and it was made clear that if DBL was voted out of the rotation entirely, Anet would not put any resources to making new WvW maps in the future, so we voted to keep DBL in the rotation, and for some it was a bitter pill, but they swallowed it to have any hope at all for new maps in WvW. However, we're still waiting for those resources to come to fruition as we still haven't seen a new map, but perhaps it is just taking a backseat to class balancing and server/alliance restructuring. > > Always nice to have a gun pointed towards your head in a discussion.
