    Aye, I thought there was a 5 cap limit per field a few patches ago. Or maybe like I posted above, there must atleast by 2 blast per party to get full effect no matter how many you are. I.e. staff guard and staff rev

  2. How many times can we blast a field? Is there a limit to ppl affected? Etc.,

     

    https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Blast_finisher

     

    https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Area_of_effect

     

    https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Combo

     

    With this i wonder how many smokes you need to blast a Zerg or is it necessary that 2 out of 3 in the party must have a blast finishers to cover all people?

     

    When I look at this in wiki it does not specifically answer my question but it implies that each party must have 2 blaster and that they be arranged good. And stack really tight. So the blast hits all within your group based on priority and not the number of fields.

     

    Anyone can clarify?

  3. Seems like my post didn't post earlier.

     

    In team speak we used to do that. Not only with 5 to 5 to 5. But with guilds using the same ts since there's a commander voice option. You can be in your own channel at the same time, do your thing with others via command

    Aye.:3 internet speed is never an issue here. Just the ping pong from where it goes.

     

    With 1mb or less pre paid internet I have no lag with gw2. It's just weird

We really can't allow this unresponsive lagfiesta psuedo-gameplay to continue years into the future in its current state. Just do something about it already, anything really. The WvW community will PAY MONEY to fix this issue. More people will play WvW if it was playable to begin with.

     

    :/ We already paid for it.

    This is correct

     

    You only need 1 herald per 10, 1 tempest per 10, 1 spell breaker per 10. The rest is fb scourge.

     

    It would look like this

     

    Primary Fb scrap scourge spell scourge

    Secondary Fb scourge scourge herald tempest

     

    Even with this, you can limit warriors to 3

     

    Then put more scourges or Weaver's for mass ae bombs

     

    And supposing ppl want to cheese

     

    Fb scrap scourge scourge spell is strong.

     

    Repeat till squad is full

    Wvw isn't really something you can rush. :) It is by design a snail pace.

    Since you are four. Just transfer halfway of the relink. By then the matchup is solid in its proper tier.
