Thanks for the opening MB*!
The video is actually 54 seconds jam-packed with lessons ...
Being a support warrior, it is my job to:
- be on the commander as close as possible
- follow every command to the best of my ability (without hesitation)
- blast for healing and might
- provide healing support and condition removal
- spread some destruction along the way
In the video I failed in almost all of my objectives.
The Commander had ordered a push across the bridge and to the left. Even though I was third to the bridge I was not close enough. Yes, I messed up getting onto the ramp and I hit stability too late (I no longer have the reaction time of a teenager) to make a difference but even with that I almost made the corner ... but I was not CLOSE ENOUGH. Even though my warrior has a lot of armor and health, it needs support to survive. That support comes mainly from guardians and the commander (usually a guardian). But even then, a warrior and guardian are not enough without the rest of the zerg with them. I died following the commander but in doing so I was hoping divert enough attention so that others could get through.
A Zerg is not a Zerg without everyone being there. Look at the mini-map in the video, We were not a Zerg. The commander is faster than a speeding bullet at times but I know I have to do a better job at keeping up.
Anyway, I am enjoying WvW and I hope to get better at it.
* MBparis and I go back a long ways ... well before GW1. We were part of TOG and then Blood of the Martyr when it split off. I am not a PvPer but did some GvG in GW1. My WvW is still in a learning phase. MB kids me about jumping into a fight and dying, leaving him to heal me up ... Something that has been going on from the beginning of GW1. That is not likely to change but I am trying to at least do it while trying to keep up with the commander.
