Hey all,
Izzy is streaming WvW tactics right now on Twitch.TV.
Here’s the info:
Join Isaiah Cartwright here on the official Guild Wars 2 Twitch channel as he talks about good tactics for small squads in WvW. The livestream begins this Friday, May 10th, at noon Pacific time.
Thanks everyone who came out it was a lot of fun. Let me know if there is anything I could do improve it next time.
Thanks for the feedback here are some clarifications
Vets at tower: Looks like we changed how the defend event is trigger, it now only triggers on attacking the door or walls for keeps and towers, and any guard for all camps. Sorry for the confusion clearly I’ve been doing it wrong sense that was changed.
Thieves: The main thing I wanted to get across with thieves was not meant to be a commentary on balance but just on how you spend your time. There are many builds set up to be defensive and with good evasion and positioning you can run a group around in circles no matter what profession you are. If you let 1-2 people run your group around in circles and get a lucky kill here or there your letting the enemy tie you up when you could move on to another objective.
Because we have talked before.. I know you loved that chess analogy. Gw2 has hardly changed so i would say even then and now the same applies.
You have the pieces and they all work great but your board has holes in it. Not to mention you seem to want to tear it in half. Then add some fuel and set it on fire.
My point I was trying to clarify was that a tactical maneuver (strategic withdraw) is very helpful and useful tool against any situation in which you are not in the state of winning. I wasn’t making a comment on the thieves balance nor am I trying to get into a debate on the subject now but merely trying to teach and explain an extremely useful tactic when playing WvW.
and I would have gone for a Go analogy there :P
