Careful there. Hope is contagious. Just remember anets usually tactics. Where’s the legendary armory ? Prolly “on the table” with alliances somewhere. Don’t fall for the ? ? without clear communication and interest in their players. I’ll believe improvements to WvW when I see it. For now #allianceswhen

Here mist warriors, have some buffs *guild banner tonic* Still not as trolly as anet’s alliances #allianceswhen

Happy 3 yr! I’d like to thank the WvW community for helping to keep the meme alive ?

> @"Halbarz.3854" said: > Just give up on the Alliances, it's not going to happen or if it does it might be when it's way too late and Anet realizes that they made a mistake ignoring a part of their community Really, a good portion of us have given up on them. I don’t even really care anymore about alliance system. I just want anet to communicate or admit they’ve abandoned the project. Until then... I will be a thorn in their side adding my #allianceswhen to consistently keep this thread/meme alive. Also, if you google #allianceswhen... this thread comes up now since we’ve #’d it enough. Love it.

It’s been awhile for me here so I’ll put in my #allianceswhen

> @"Hesione.9412" said: > I count another 6 threads in this forum, on the first page, that are about match-ups. It does seem to be a relatively popular discussion topic. :( Ya. I think your thread was fine until people started throwing our server names. It’s good to have a discussion about imbalance of severs that are matched (and frankly this is in every tier) but now that specific servers were mentioned.... I’m guessing this thread will be shut down soon. If not , then maybe the mods are getting a bit more lax or just never checking threads ?

+1 to the eater

Well... those who still have hope swear we will see them with the x pac this year. I’m not one of those. I don’t even fully trust there will be an x pac this year. It’s one of those “fool me once, fool me twice” scenarios. By all means though, plz prove me wrong anet! #allianceswhen

When Tyria has horses we can ride!!! Jk. For real though... when was the last time a dev streamed “let’s play WvW” and dodged the questions or gave half answers? I haven’t kept up with the streams.

You don’t need the WvW ascended/legendary armor if you aren’t willing to put in the time towards it. Each mode has their own way. I love WvW and personally refuse to do raids hence why this is the mode I choose to get my armor. Just imagine how it felt to be a WvW player before leg armor and trinkets were even brought to our game mode. We had absolutely no way unless we wanted to grind it out in other modes that are also not so friendly to casual players. Anet even made it so you get pips at the end of each tick vs pips at the end of wood, bronze and so on (the change was not immediate either) to help those with time restraints out even more. If anet made it to easy, less ppl would play daily,weekly, monthly in WvW. Our game mode thrives with population- hence why you have to invest time for the armor. It’s a goal you work towards, and can even as a casual. I hate fractals and pvp, for a very long time I had no way of getting a legendary back because I was unwilling to put in the time/effort. If investing 6 months work if 20+ hrs a week WvW isn’t your cup of tea then I suggest checking out the other sources of ascended/leg armor. As for low pips and non outnumbered maps... not sure what to tell you there. I spent the first 600 levels on a loosing sever. Even now my server is not always getting good pips and we sure aren’t outnumbered often at all! Wanna increase your pips for faster skirmish tickets? Same answer- play the mode. When you level to higher ranks you get more pips. Get a tag and tag up. I’m pretty sure you still get extra pips for tagging. Finish wood each week for the extra pip. Most of all, don’t WvW if you don’t like it or the farm will feel like forever. The tickets come naturally from actively playing in WvW.

It’s like they want you to play the mode to earn rewards! This thread always makes me laugh ;)

> @"Master Childman.2135" said: > The old Shiverpeak Mountains was also targeted by botting players. Today I found some necromancers farming AFK in Timberline Falls ... Timberline Falls? but what resources are recovered here? once again I just found a bunch of losers. I’m pretty sure like t4 totems or t3 totems come from there. I tried farming them before off of mobs when making a gen 2. Drop was way to low for me to run around killing. Farmed gold, bought them instead

Well, at least the population balance in WvW feels better than the shit show that is snowball mayhem ?

Maybe all the homeless sos players from the “DiSbAnD SeA oF SoRrOwS” thread can find a home on DH Haha

They obviously know they’re neglecting our modes. I suggest stop making excuses for companies that should know better, and probably do know better.

I first focused on unlocking all possible dungeon weapons and armor skins. Once I completed that I focused on unlocking all possible skins from triumphant/legacy armor. Then I did all possible weapon skins from the heroic weapon track. Upon completing that I collected all of the Amber fossils from the dry top track and crafted all of the amberite weapons. I sold the sand items. I’ve then collected all of the skins and 500 currency from every living world track and also have 19 gift of battle in the bank. If you’ve collected all possible items like this and still need a track: When festival roll around run tracks I run the Domain of Istan track on repeat for the three trophy crates of metal, cloth and leather. I get decent gold from the mats- or keep em for crafting. I then choose the armor at the end and sell it for 2g50 silver since I really don’t need the armor.

In this case switch game modes. The answer is a HARD NO. I really only WvW and have 9 accounts for the WvW with friends/guilds reasons I don’t need a break. Anet should be giving each game mode some attention, not just pve.

I don’t personally care about alliances anymore as they’ve stated it wouldn’t even address the population imbalance. I just want them to own up to their decisions and communicate with us. I do however know that we need updates. I’m not happy with the current state of WvW. I continue to play because I love the mode. When new people join in our mode I always take time to explain things vs yelling “don’t touch the tact’s” or “stay on tag” “dont repair the wall” “why you do that you noob” because treating newcomers like this will only help bring on the death of this game mode. Less people =less friendlies to play with no matter if you prefer roaming, small scale, ppt, ppk, and less enemies to fight. Do you really wanna fight gates all day?? I’m not sure what anet could do to help our mode out. I do know we need more attention that what we’ve been given. Some of the ideas I’ve read in the past seem good. Although it’s a gimmick and vets might hate it- theme weeks, dbl xp weeks, new armor/weapon skins. These all bring in/or back players. Even if they’re pve ppl, they might like WvW! We were all pve ppl in the beginning. If anet focused on something special for us once every 2 months I’d be happy. Even if it was simple as gimmick weeks (core skills, dbl XD and whatever else they’ve done in the past). I’m truly saddened by the communication as this is a really great game mode.

I scrolled way to far this morning to find this thread

Funny young cat indeed! I can’t wait to share this to my new WvW friends who wonder why I giggle at the meme that is our game mode ?

1 hr and 30 mins (52 secs) in friends. This was August 2019! “Upcoming months”

With all the confusion circling today’s relinks- I think we may have forgotten about the real timing issue! It’s not “relinks when” it’s “alliances when” When is the 2yr 3yr 20yr birthday. I can’t remember how long it’s been
