So someone's only option is to join the server in dead last or a merc server which doesnt even play with the same people consistently lol.....

Only the 3 unpaired servers play with the same group consistently.

Being on the host or the merc is inconsequential

[Hunt] on Maguuma

Saturday night thru Tuesday night

Normally being chased by the backgate zerg

I believe this is a closet chest-thumper

Agreed

The Zerg is fast enough

Axe does have disadvantages inherent. Scepter has range and sword has gap closers, mace... Well that's it's own thing.

I'm fairly comfortable with axe having a damage lead on other weapon choices, as that's literally all it's offering.

Litany of wrath gets fairly close to 20s with valor.

But yeah, Firebrand is going to get destroyed by interrupts. Thieves running pulmonary impact especially. A few days after the patch goes live the general population will know this and solo FB will be their favorite treat.

Even as a dragon Hunter I expect a fun time. Lots of time to pewpewpew between 1200 and 120 range, and if they do survive to get in melee range , well they won't.. because they can be left in the dust at will. But if they do by some miracle LB4 punt puts them right back at range AND shuts down whatever tome they were opening.

It's gonna be a slaughter

Nah just show up doing whatever and get offended at the slightest challenge by those more knowledgeable.

Good advice in any situation

Scepter does seem lagging since sword buff. But mace needs love more

So don't tell me "oh the cast time is low enough", for other classes, the baseline is 0s, instant cast, as low as it gets. Guardian gets a minor improvement, and we are supposed to be thankful for the "buff".

What's the cast time for attunement changes? Tomes aren't an elite

Racing a stopwatch is all there is

Once upon a Time guardian skills had 1200 range

Now we're down to 120 as a buff

Lets all hope poor BG can finally get a few people to help fight the good fight

What about Portugese?

OP is aware Brasil isn't Spanish speaking?

Personally I'm quite pleased Anet chose not to segregate us like the EU servers, I've played with people from around the globe on the NA servers and were those people in their own cluster that'd not have happened.

I assume gsch is still there

Unless it receives some attention Scourge will be the right answer for WvW. A distant second will be anything that supports Scourge, if that even proves necessary.
