With the mention of WvW, what server? Are you both on the same one?

Thanks

Our guild is looking for a Necro on our WvW team. Unfortunately you're on a different server. What level is your Necro? Not going to ask to transfer as WvW might be changing soon but if you're low enough you can reroll.

If you don't plan on the PvP side for a while, we can still help and deal with the server issue later.

Thanks

No to no......

The quickest I've found and use when helping fellow guildies.

1: Use XP booster when possible.

2: Map exploration. Open waypoint, vistas and PoI's. Save the hearts for later unless they're quick ones.

3: Hit any dynamic events that pop up.

4: Get into maps that are 3-5 levels above you.

5: Personal story offers a lot. Can go quicker if you party up. Use LFG if you can.

There's a whole myriad of things you can do as others have said. Try the other game modes, craft a Legendary, Fashion wars, masteries, you name it.

Do some research, pick a goal and go for it. Joining a guild can also help and speed things up.

Torch.....

Check us out if you're interested. We have discord if you so desire. What class do you play? Hope to hear from you.

Edit: I'll be on about 9pm CDT.

That's why I was kind of hinting to remove the tickets from the Diamond chests. Spread the amount out over the previous ones. Have the Diamond chests contain T6 mats and other mats required for crafting Legendary gear and the final Diamond chest to have a 0.01% chance to contain a Grand Master Mark.

I could go for a % of a Grand Master Mark but not like 0.00000000001. Maybe 0.01%.

Also maybe some random T6 mats in the repeatable ones.

Edit: Maybe some of the other components required to craft the Legendary gear.

Bumping. Still looking for that elusive Necro Monger. If you like this class and need help, we're in the market.

Or that one which is my favorite "brings a mob over from a nearby node", gathers and you get aggro'ed and they leave on their merry way. I found minion necros are the worst doing it.

Yeah there are times I will walk right over you...

This maybe?

WvW got legendary gear. Welcome to the grind!!!

I have a few pieces of WvW ones. Working on the rest. I either run Celestial, Marauders, Viper, Nomads/Minstrels depending on the role I want to play. Do you know how many sets I would have to carry, # of different toons or the cost of doing those stat swaps?

Yes I think it's worth my time. Slow but still worth it.

If you think there is the slightest chance you will *ever* want to try out WvW, and want to try it with this guild, please mark us as your WvW guild as soon as that is an option."

> When people join the guild, as part of the meet'n'greet mention to them "hey, we're set as WvW so we can stick together if we go there, feel free to mark us as your WvW guild. It won't affect you at all if you never go into WvW but will mean we can help you if you do."

The only problem is they may still not get in during a season they have had no activity and the world is full. They may have to wait until next season and that is still "iffy" with no activity.

I don't know if they play on another world during the season to get activity rolling to be put in for the next seasons pooling.

Both those conditions should have died right along with Scarlet Briar!!!

> I have four accounts, two of them with both expansions and with characters in legendary/ascended gear. It looks like I'll be able to swap those two accounts to play with a different WvW guild every 8 weeks. So, I could play with Dcon on my main account and WL on my secondary account for eight weeks, then swap so I can play with WL on my main account and Dcon on my secondary account for eight weeks. And all I need to do is switch which guild is my WvW guild for each account. Is that switch going to cost me anything?

On the cost, "No". You will have to do the guild switch before the last week of the season. It will not take effect until the start of the next season.

Transfers only cost on the restructure if you decide to move during the season and if the world is not full.

I wouldn't mind it taking the place of the 2nd AB map. Tweak it a bit, put up some invisible walls to help with falling/getting knocked off.

This restructuring may never see the light of day. We have a long way to go and the original post by the Devs may get changed entirely.

Bored with BDO again?

If only 10% of people join the test and some people are still playing live, then it's not a valid test of the system, which depends on everyone playing as they normally do (some full time, some sporadically, some bingers, some burn outs, etc).

When it gets close enough to be able to test, announce it. Shut down WvW say for 1-2 weeks. Patch the game to allow us to make the required selections, i.e. guild/alliance and let us see how things play out.

Balance is not an issue as we know until things are adjusted. I think waiting 8 weeks for that is too long.

I mostly want to see how the pooling of players will be.

To me the hardest part is getting people to follow you. You will need to build up their confidence in you.

**Mix it up**- Don't just PPT or look for fights. Keep your group vocally engaged while attacking a structure.

There's a whole bunch more but it depends on your group whether they're experienced or not. Teach them positioning and such.

I've ask this before as well as others. Might have been missed.

**Are we going to get to test this before implementation?**

Thanks

And who's going to make sure those funds get used for WvW?
