Guild Wars 2

Unless you got zerker gear on.. your crap: basically
Unless you roll a warrior.. your crap: wrong
You take any damage … your crap: wrong
You get any conditions.. your crap: wrong
You try and play a support role … crap: yep

Hey that link is purple, oh it’s that guy. I’m pretty sure his videos were posted in this forum before and laughed at for many reasons.

Sorry but hours of research doesn’t make you automatically correct. It doesn’t matter how long you research what 2 plus 2 equals, if your answer is 5, you’re still wrong. It’s been proven time and time again that conditions and support builds are less effective in every situation than full raw damage builds.

Also, no one who has any idea what they’re talking about is going to say only roll a warrior. Every class is great.

RIP in peace raden, his departure from these forums was a major loss.

Playing as a support so you can support bad players isn’t really fruitful. You don’t seem to understand how the game works, and instead, try to mold your own lackluster vision of some wasteful scenario to reality. I’m also not knocking Necros, but rather the imbecile that I’m talking to.

On behalf of many players including myself,
Sorry were not all as epic at you. Ill go hang myself
and nerd rage quit so you have one less “imbecile” to deal
with while your concurring the evil of Tyria!!!!!

LMAO

Give me a break. Different situations and goals for different people.
Somehow I felt it was more important to do things like maintain
a relationship with my GF, get outside for some exercise
and see friends face to face instead of being glued to my computer
hunting and learning all the in and outs of GW2. Spending months
of time and money crafting my legendary weapon just so I can AFK in
LA showing it off or shooting other people with flying ponies. Researching
my toons ability’s to be all I can be in GW2

Other people want to kill the most magic dragon in game
and spends hours upon hours grinding to craft some super weapon
so they can leave cute little rainbows under their feet when they walk.
Boasting about how epic they are and their latest kills.
I could care less … but you don’t see me calling them names
or knocking them for their style of game play.

I play a casual game in a casual guild with a couple of friends.

If I play a little more then with said casual friends, I pug it.
If I want to do a little more then continually wipe, die and spend gold
on repairs, I go support. You will never see me in end content and honestly
…. I really don’t care. Its not going to be my end life legacy.

Its my 52 dollars. I play how I like. If you don’t like it… cry me a river
and stop trolling my posts

The most important parts are in bold. Also grats for having a GF.

Raden you must understand that blindly following someones build advice because he is a popular member of the necro community is wrong. Work things out for yourself. Nemesis does have some good knowledge of necro but when it comes to serious dungeon running you should be a little more careful with his suggestions. He openly states that he thinks stacking is broken and needs fixing. He is also more of a casual player who enjoys a variety of gametypes. I would say hes good for general advice about necro and fun open world builds but not an expert in any individual gametype.

The majority of posters on this forum will tell you to go zerk because its been proven to be most efficient. If you asked them ingame they would probably be a little more polite about it and maybe offer compromises if you arent completely comfortable with full zerk. But when the same stuff gets asked over and over and people are so stubborn and ignore the advice. You can sort of see why sometimes it gets a bit hostile on the forums.

Don’t listen too hard to the hardcore elite WoW raiders… um, necro person I am too lazy to scroll up and look the name of. Unless doing high level fractals GW2 is, by definition, a casual game. They want to squeeze their every second and feel pro at the expense of fun, the thing we play the game for.

In theory.

Disregarding the fact only a few like to play in melee or that everything in the game is doable (even playing naked, and I mean our characters). Despite being a full berserker-geared-no-matter-the-class-I-play person I wouldn’t knock on other people’s choices. As long as people dodge out every challenge in the game can be passed.

That said, conditions are weak in PvE and support roles do slow needlessly the game and heals will not save someone who does not dodge, so killing the boss is a better avenue (that said I keep two utility skills with elixirs so I can raise people from a distance or do it from stealth) but I say this in the spirit of the quote ‘I disagree strongly with what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it’. Or play it.

P.S. The insults were completely stupid and needless. I would use a harsher word but the modding in these forums consists in ignoring veiled insults and pouncing on ‘bad words’ only. Seriously, was the ‘shelf stocking’ even needed to feel more pro about winning a casual game?

So many uneducated opinions here. Support builds and tanks are good and needed for lots of things, for example roleplaying and immersion.

There is no victory when shelf-stockers run around among us and act like idiots.

Made me chuckle.

Blizz messed up big time when they decided to cater to around 5 percent of their player base and thumbed the other 95 percent when they released CAT. As a result, they lost aprox 4 million subscriptions over it. Anet has no monthly sub fees but anyone I know has invested some RWM at the gem store for something or another. What happens to Anet’s bottom line when those people that are investing in the gem store quit? Simply because they feel the class they sunk 6 months time into sucks and they don’t want to start over.

Maybe Anet needs to spend some time looking at how to make other classes a little more valuable so they don’t end up with either a server full of worriers or, people that just quit cause they have already invested the time on other toons and don’t feel like spending more time rerolling cause they don’t feel like they help bring anything to the table when they see things like this when looking for a dungeon to join.

this is too sad to even look. again
