Well in ID1 the infamous Gaile Grey is answering questions so I happen to screen cap one thing that will get everyone excited and answer some questions for the second chapter






/edit

I also have tons of other screencaps that answer some important questions too...I will post later if I dont get to it just message or ask in this post.

Yes there was a big discussion about that between the Admin and many other district members.

/edit

There was even a small post from the Frog himself that said "he opposed of IWAY" build..but I failed to get a screenshot of that...i was too busy laughing

But in my opinion I agree IWAY has taken over tombs and its just plain boring now

//edit

Nevermind



PS sorry for all the edits I keep pushing enter before I'm actually done

Truly - I don't want this to turn into a flame war, but.. - what is all this fuss about IWAY? It isn't often that you come against a real good group, and it's a clever build. Really I think people are just whining and can't stand the fact that every once in a while they lose to IWAY. So sit down and shut up ;o

well said Bringer.

I don't use IWAY but what ever... if they are going to nerf it then they need to nerf the enemies in PvE that use it to. All this 'OMG I can't beat this build, it must be unbalanced... NERF!" is getting VERY annoying.

lets cry about a build that is by far the easiest to counter, but people underestimate it enough to not think they need the extreme counters and lose to it... or too busy worrying about spike groups

I actually have been in IWAY and seen a few counter failures.

Nerco: I WILL DEFEAT YOU WITH SPITEFUL SPIRT MUHAHAHAHA

Me:....

However the one tactic that always works is RUNNING AWAY! No seriously just make sure you clear conditions and have a ranger use crippling shot on all the IWAY warriors and have all the targets they want dead run away . Works everytime.

I do all areas of PvP and PvE I don't discriminate.

Although did come in late and the frog didnt talk that much. After Gaile teased him and called him a Toad he kind of just stopped talking. Gaile said this was caused from someone giving him too much nog

anyways, i feel that its against my principles to take the easy way out for some wins in tombs with IWAY. I'm not the bomb-ding-dang-diggity at pvp, i just REALLY enjoy winning in tombs. so i can see why people would use it. no one can say its a creative build by any means, especially when compared to EOE or All-smite monk. but the fantastic thing about Guild Wars pvp is that it has an element of luck attatched to it. If you are facing a Minion build and happen to have some smites - lucky and right on time. If they want to nerf it oh well. balanced will always be fun so i don't really give a flying foot about any nerf-tastic updates in the future. just more interesting builds.

Normal IWAY rarely ever wins tombs anymore, the [MATH] IWAY is somewhat coordinated and it's successful such as alot of other coordinated builds. Sure alot of people in IWAY groups are assholes for the fact everyone says "oh RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO IWAY, IWAY is gay, IWAY = Idiots Will Attack You, IWAY is for noobs who can't pvp, IWAY is this and that". I'd be an asshole to you too, and I don't see why you wouldn't deserve it. I like IWAY and I run it, but I am also skilled enough to run anything else of that matter. So you can't say everyone that runs IWAY is a noob because that isn't true.

my apologies then, no offense meant. must be some substance affecting my memory. since most people here don't like iway, what are your tactics for countering it. i know pvp builds are guarded mafia-style, but maybe if we share how we all counter it instead of simply saying its easy to beat, then it wouldn't come up in every thread.

One of the only reasons that you see IWAY a lot in tombs is because it is an easy pug that people with no exp in tombs can create. i mean my god ive seen people run the ivex trapper premade for iway... Ive seen top ranked guilds (rank 25+) run iway in tombs, seen r6++ iway groups forming... does it end? no.

IWAY is easily countered with spiteful spirit, chain aegis, ward against melee, and a few others as examples. PEOPLE BITCH ABOUT IWAY because they are tired of seeing it over, and over, and over, and over again. Good example. go into observer mode. half of the teams that you see are IWAY. and thats only the ones it allows you to see. PUG's arent rated so you dont see how many there truly are. go to any american districts and half the ID districts, and its iway lfg... Orders nec LFG iway... stuff like that.

its an easy cheap build that does have a bug in it. you should only be allowed to use a corpse of a pet or ally once. i cant raise 9000 minions off a dead ally/pet, why should i virtually gain infinite health off that target? if they did that, youd see iway fal loff the map as it would be virtually ineffective as al lthe warriors cant use pets/people as infinite wells of blood that can work across the map...

man iway goes down so easy if you blind them, or slow down there attack speed, or give them contions, or hex them, or use ward against foes and run from them.

I also have something to add to this spoilers gone IWAY flame thread. Have you tried lately to find a decent PUG that is not running IWAY? Three nights ago, I was in Tombs saying "r4 Air Spiker lfg" for 35 minutes, all districts, with no invites. IWAY is an easy build to run, and it is an easy way to get into a group and learn the maps and strategies for Tombs, its just that simple. My suggestion to all of you IWAY haters is this: Bring counter-measures EVERY time you enter Tombs. If IWAY is no longer effective in tombs, it will be dropped for something else, i guarantee it.
