Groups like the ones described by the op are usually -- though ofc not always -- made up of players who are unable to run alone or in smaller numbers so they bring help. I don't see it as a problem, I feel like if they have enough success with 5v1 they might one day try 4v1, etc and eventually become more capable that way . . .

Mostly those kind of grps I run into are Gold or Diamond Legends, low ranks dont seam to be that afraid to die or come 3+ to defend a camp from one person.

Cant see how that behaviour is any good fore a game mode with low population.

Title says it all.

Only fun I find in this game is fights in WvW with close too even numbers (spvp used too bee fun but too few working builds there now)

rly dont care if it is 40 vs 45 but 20 vs 50 or 1 vs 3 cant bee any fun on any side ?

Some servers are very fun to meet, others care way way to much about structures.

Yes its a ok weapon in open world pve/ story but anything works there ;)

When I see a fellow ranger with Lb I know I am getting a bag ;) last morning I killed a duo of two soul beast With Lb they could not hit me at all with the lb (they reported me as hacker lol) :) think it says all about the skill and knowledge spread among people that play Gw2

This thing about bringing a friend is the one thing I struggle with in Gw2 WvW , leading to me getting way to salty :(

Been solo roaming many years now and the mentality some have with no they dont get one friend when you beat them they often get a whole gank squad.

If you outnumber the enemy in this mode I personally feel like a cheater. ( not 45 vs 50 more like 1 vs 2, 25 vs 50 etc)

I belive it is caused by too many different motivations to play the mode.

Would removing gift of battle from WvW and all other rewards make the mode more about fighting ? (could it also make WvW draw in more income as more gold would be neede from gemstore to not run low if you dont PvE )

I main a ranger and have a bit aces to stealth , but I cant see any problems with stealth in this game.

And buff thief it is so weak now esp Dead Eye must 1 v 2 to have fun with them now :(

Only play in WvW but for the last few years I could not see any reason to use Longbow due to its weak state and now it got a nerf too?

running Gs/ Axe Warhorn as I have been doing since forever.

It is a nerf in my opinion, many have pointed out why so wont go there.

Have a good Roaming build with Gs and rune of the defender, works real nice but not any way near as fun :( as my old Gs roaming build

Why do People think Ranger = Ranged ok similar words but there ends the similarity.

How can you not see that it is a BIG nerf? clear as day IMO

Gs changes where not as bad as I imagined but still bad, On sword they made it feel and function way worse with no flow in combat making it a big nerf :angry:

Sword is in a worse position now after changes so dont think so :D

Sword where ok now it is trash, its near useless in its current form.

Adding lance saved this game mode fore me , made my day big thx

How is it rng ? it is always the third attack in the chain. The thing is you can use quickness to alter the speed of the chain to get the evade when you need it, in my mind that is active play and not rng ;)

Why the extensive nerf on ranger melee ? The LB auto attack nerf is ok maby rapid fire needs some tuning too but melee rly ?

And it makes ranger play more like warrior, I like my warrior but I have one

rly cant stay in melee with gs now, so sad actualy had a half decent boonbeast zerger that needed that auto chain to suvrvive

What rng with gs b4? It where rly consistent and that Cripplig throw los is way worse than ppl realise

Rip melee ranger :( only good thing with Gs where Power Stab and Swoop. The other buffs are so minor that they dont do anything

They said a dismount skill where coming, continued to play as I where thinking this unbalanced s.... where going away.

only play a bit sPvP now.

Only care about solo roaming in WvW and I know it is not the main point of the mode, but many people liked it liked it and now it is gone due to one change they refuse to balance.

Why do some ppl run gank grps when there are only solo roamers on the map from the other teams ? It is like they dont want any resistance at all :(

Cant understand why anet made it so easy to flee in a pvp mode :( wvw should be brutal

Remove it or add a good dismount skill
