Ha is not totally dead. Its just Dead to Pugs. If you go into HA with anything less then R3 you wont get a group. Period. If you ask for people to do an original build it wont happen. HA has been this way for a long time now.

It is not dead for guilds. Guilds can still do original shit. IMO we need to make a guild of people who are all either Glad 4+, R6+, Champ 2+, ( Just something to show decent pvp knowledge ) That's sole purpose is to run original shit for the lulz.

YES. Guess what, people? This is HA for you.
I bled for my rank but now I call the shots.
That's how it works... can't ban hazing in a game ;-)

lol, how can you say ha is not dead

Teh Jace · Apr 17, 2008, 05:10 PM // 17:10

How is HA dead? I can always find a nonsway grp (ofc not during dead hours). And if so why u still play it then?

sororitygirl · Apr 17, 2008, 05:23 PM // 17:23

Yeah... I HA daily, mostly w/o my guild's HA team because I want to do it more often than they do. I've done pugs of every kind, from rank 0-9.

It's -not- that hard, and ha is -not- dead.
You just have to really want glowy animals.

I recently got back into HA (got r3 just before factions came out, played HA every double fame weekend but not much else) & surprisingly to me, my guildies (most of whom have never HA'd before) wanted to HA with me. in a matter of 3 days we've gotten 36 fame, beaten teams like GANK, QuCo, DRKN, IYF, GWEN, many R8+ teams, & gotten to HoH. Outta this team we have 1 R5, 1 R4 (me), & 1 R3, everyone else is R2 or lower. This is either showing the quality of players in my guild, or the quality of players that win HoH all the time.

HA is not dead, people just don't sulk in districts like they used to. Whispering works just great.

elektra_lucia · May 02, 2008, 06:44 PM // 18:44

dead isn't a relative term, inactive is.

all your 12 pages of arguing owned in one line, good game.

MasterSasori · May 02, 2008, 07:45 PM // 19:45

We need 12 pages to point this out?

Alazare · May 08, 2008, 05:24 PM // 17:24

HA used to be 6 full IDs with a 4 team scarred earth, 5 team HoH. True there was lots of iway but there was also dual surge, smite, hexway, rspike, nspike, foc spike, vim, pressure builds, eurospike, legoway, lots and lots of balanced, there was no skipping. At all. Now theres Build Wars, there are 3 IDs, with the third being a 5 person show, there are UW to HoH skips and even 2 team HoH battles (had 2 yesterday). So yes, its dead and we all know who to thank...

Krill · May 08, 2008, 05:43 PM // 17:43

It's pretty sad that I wish I had kept my old prophecies account that was farmed up from iway pugs so I could now get into sway pugs.

And this my friend, is why HA is dead. People leave, yet no-one is gunna let anyway that hasn't already got r5+ to group, so either let people into ranked groups, or die with HA

Hmmm, no, 'letting' people into groups that want to win, makes them not win anymore. Passive spelled this out in apost somewher ever so nicely when he was talking about the 20k ish fame he made with rspike. Cant do that with just some random person you 'let' in your group.

I think I'll just join you in pve, and let HA go to hell, anet doesnt like pvp anymore anyways.
