I'm not sure if laziness posts here but I'd like to publicly thank him for taking me along for an esports ride and being chill as hell. Taking me from a "I never even played a ranger" scrub to a "Hey I can almost hold my own on a point when there's only one guy coming in" juggernaut.

So turns out when the marionnette event fails it kills everyone *in the area*. Ported in Lornar's Pass just as the event failed, "oh hey what's this green thing under my char" *bam* dead. Thank you Anet for the repair cost.

I honestly could care less about the repair cost. I still think it's completely idiotic. How would you react if you ported in an area and got instagibbed? Also thinking to the poor sods who are doing their world completion in this area too :)

You can also use Sword #2 and Judge's Intervention as makeshift Shadowstep/Blink, although you need to have a mob targeted (the skills work even if the mob's out of range). It's situational but can be handy in WvW once in a while.

Greatsword #3 is nice for this as well and you don't need a target.

Team SFD was out sPvPing (esports 360 no scope) last night. Unfortunately we had some pretty tough (some would say bullshit) matchups watch me as I recover from one bad call just get everyone back up on the mdidle point.

Sometimes cool things happen in PvP. Also it's fun. Thanks to everyone who tagged along. At this point I'm pretty sure lazy usually logs off after a while to go destroy a punching bag to keep his cool.

The armor set is the heritage armor set you can get from Hall of Monuments reward points earned in the first Guild Wars. Back when light armor was more about style and less about showing skin off.

Speaking of glory removal https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/phasing-out-pvp-glory/

quote:

The glory vendor that was introduced in the December 10 build will remain until the new reward system is released in a later update so you’ll have an avenue to spend your existing glory, but we will be removing the Mystery Coffer from his selection of wares.

If you have any leftover glory I highly recommend you to grab some. Mystery coffers can contain any item regardless of your rank.

While serving under Commander Lazy I have learned many things, including the masterstroke strategy of building a trebuchet right against the wall of a tower when nobody has any flame rams. Truly a great leader without peer!

Commander Lazy taught me that the best way to deploy a catapult is facing away from the target.

I think you forgot the fundamentals:

-Don't trust the goats
-Seriously don't trust the goats

Don't get me wrong, there's gently caress-all rewards, the map and gamemode selection is lackluster (Don't get me started about TDM either.) but overall it's a fun gameplay requiring some coordination. Obviously I guess the amount of fun you can wrangle out of this depends who you are playing with but so far all my sPvPs experience with SFD has been a blast.
