BeepBoopBop.5403 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Hey OP you realize the roamers you want to run away from would have the same mount to chase you and send you back home (to spawn) right? Guess you gotta l2p after all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess you gotta l2p after all OBVIOUSLY you would gain a +300% mount speed and health bonus when moving away from a mounted enemy. I mean this is the only way to level the playing field with those mean roaming bullies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazyDaisy.4107 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Yeah, but mounts don't have group stealth or portal bomb capabilities, and no cannon mounted to its head! I mean of we're gonna break it, let's break it, I want cannon raptor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have a problem with them (in terms of them ganking me, or having trouble killing them), but I do think they are unintended and a cheap form of playing wvw that wasn't really intended. I also think that 90% of the kills they get are purely to grief others as opposed to actually being an asset to the server. Quote Anet on them saying that "roaming is unintended." _You_ **think** it's unintended and a cheap form of playing WvW. _I_ **think** it's intended and a fair way of playing WvW. Who is right here? Oh, no one. You're entitled to your opinion (which I'm pretty sure 99% of the WvW playerbase disagrees with)... but to each their own. Btw, these people who are being "griefed" obviously don't find it upsetting enough to come post about it on the forums. Why are you doing it? If you have no problems with roamers and the people who are apparently at a "huge disadvantage" are really upset about it, why aren't they saying anything? Stop fighting other people's battles and bringing up issues that really aren't issues. Roaming has been in the game since this game came out so really, get over it. You have no power over what anyone chooses to do in game. Not to mention, a 50 man blob steam rolling over a single person is probably the most unbalanced fight in the game. WAAAYYYY more than a level 80 killing a level 20. The level 20 at least has some semblance of a chance of escaping or fighting back. That single person against a zerg? None.

TheQuickFox.3826 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I would appreciate a raptor to roam on. And a springer to deal with tower walls. (Who needs a ram or cata when you can just jump over) And a griffon to patrol Stonemist Castle on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
