Tips for Getting Started with Roaming in WvW

-

I’m new to roaming in WvW and I keep running around without finding anyone to engage with. I usually try during the afternoons, around 12pm to 3pm Central Time. Is there a certain area or map that players tend to favor for roaming? Am I just not choosing the right time to go out? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Roaming is all about catching attention. Start flipping camps and sentries, and those will often draw players to you. Also, the best times tend to be around the daily resets when more people log on. Keep an eye on what your server is like during different times!

Absolutely! Just keep bouncing between camps and watch for those single dots on the maps.

If you’re struggling to find players, try hitting up the camps in the Eternal Battlegrounds (EBG). People are often around those areas, and you can usually find some action there.

When I’m out roaming, I usually find myself capping undefended camps and occasionally running into someone. It’s common to not encounter many people, but that’s okay. Just focus on flipping camps and if someone shows up, that’s a bonus!

Yeah, flipping camps and waiting for an enemy to find you can be a fun way to engage.
