Guild Wars 2

Every Queen’s Champion seems to do them nonstop. Non-frigging-stop. It’s not fun. It is incredibly annoying. On a Hammer Champion it’s bad enough, but all of them do it, even the one with pistols. If no one else is around you have to solo the Champ and it takes forever. There are no jobs that have enough stability to even mitigate the annoyance.

I’m not a big fan of the knock downs anyway, to me, there are few things you can do as a developer to annoy your players more than take their characters out of their hands for any amount of time but this is repetitive stupidity. It’s like every single move knocks you down, most are unavoidable, and you end up spending more time on the ground than fighting as it’s continual. Over and over again.

I’ve had them knock me around the map so much they reset and start healing. How ridiculous is that?

You guys wanna dial it back next time? Or hell, this time?

There’s apparently a bug going around that Tremors self-activates on bosses without you choosing the gambit.

That could be the problem.

Got the same bug yesterday, tried the first fight and I could not even get up because soon as I started the arena i was on the ground and could not even get up before he unleashed his heavy attack. Tried it 3 times and heard there was a gambit bug and stopped trying. I will try it again after the fix.

The OP is not talking about the gauntlet guys. Read his post. He’s talking about the champions guarding the balloons.

And I agree OP. The champions have WAY TO MUCH kittenING KD. And if you’re forced to solo one, you spend 90% of the fight on the ground. There isn’t enough kittening stability in the world to remotely help. But, I didn’t expect anything less from Anet. All they know how to do is make mobs KD you and one shot you. It’s the only kittening strategies they know how to implement. So freaking sad.

Actually, they know “confusion stacking” and “stun-spam” too. The OP has it right: the most annoying thing a developer can do is take away control. When you have no choices to make, no options open to you, then you might as well not be playing the game.

There are plenty of stun breakers spread across many professions

The wind chick is the worst for this, if you get touched by a single tornado it is pretty much game over, they just keep tossing you all around the arena until you get downed then it tosses you more till you are completely dead.
