im complaining today about some areas which are over-mobbed and im complaining so anet will nerf this because this is very frustrating.
some areas like the desert when your doing the quest ancient secrets its nearly impossible to get past all the bugs and monsters its a very huge swarm im not saying there to strong all im saying is that there are way to many of them!!

even when i did the quest with 8 lvl 20s in the group we still could not get past all the mobs because when we defeated one group in came another one just a few seconds later attacking us while were down to like less than 50 health we couldnt even activate the portal without a million more bugs coming to attack us while we have barley any health and a huge DP.

this can be very frustrating and annoying so all im asking is for Anet to lower the number of monsters in some areas especially the desert but do not make the monsters any weaker so we can still be challenged but not overwhelmed but a million bugs hopefully Anet will do this nerf before i freaking throw my computer out the window.

Not to sound like an asshole, but the problem lies with your individual builds and coordination. A better organized team has no problem in most areas of the game.

ANet doesn't need to remove some easy monsters, you need to run a better team build.

You could always use one of the advanced tactics like pulling.

Just because you are having trouble they won't nerf it. You know how many thousands of people have beat that with ease.

Why is every stupid problem everyone comes across, they come here to whine about it and it ALWAYS includes the words "anet nerf"?

You have 2 options.
1. Pull
2. Learn to put together a decent team.

Those mighty level 16's your tackling aren't all that impossibly hard, believe it or not. Please learn to play the game before going and whining "anet nerf anet nerf".

Incidentally those however many mobbed areas would put there for a reason. To make them more difficult for solo farmers. One area I think it over mobbed is frozen forest. Reason why is it is difficult to run. I have no issue fighting through it though. Guess Anet put that stuff there to discourage people from running (amazing how they have good ideas once in a while).

1) Pull
2) Kill all of 1 group before advancing to another
3) Learn where pop-ups are at
4) Use a team build that can handle over aggro on occassion

5) unsigned

I spent a whole day reading about Shard of orr and about skills on wiki. my first time there was a disaster. came up with some nice builds for 2 Holy derv and a protect monk. Now i enter Shard and they get it up their sorry ---. Try the same.

GW is no hack'n slash. Read up on what you wanna kill and dont use an ''all around'' skill bar.

the more you'll read, the less you'll whine.

Complaint type threads don't actually get closed until there is a lot of flaming/trolling. Otherwise Sardelac will be empty

That said, I'd vote for a /close

Possible if entering through NF. Wouldn't be the approach I would really use though. Ranks up there with going to UW through the Lornar's Pass entrance.

Please, learn to not suck. Simply pull the group away from the rest of them (jade scarabs I'm assuming) and kill them seperately.

change your builds, you Fail due to lack of communication, team work, and the build you are useing.

proper agro control, team setup will get you through any area in GW.

Mobs are fun (people who know how to make builds and not just make 8 random skills I mean real builds that work with eachother) will over agro for the fun of it,

you wanna know whats fun. in nightfall the quest "protect the learned" get a 8 man team setup and have 7 of them stand near the base of the fortress and have the other person go trip the monster spawns, killing 12 groups of margonites (thats 96) at 1 time is fun and to easy if you know what you are doing.

the game has this thing called a learning curve if you can not keep up with it then this game is not for you.
