Guild Wars 2

Im sorry Anet but your patch didnt do anything for players not running condi necros and maybe a druid.

I and a guild mates are running glass gear. Im a rev with full zerk gear, hes a thief with full marauder gear and all of its ascended with enough AR to boot.

All these little pop ups kill us instantly, the bosses dont seem to die faster and i find fractals harder now then they were before the patch.

Just a funny one for everyone, now i have plenty of bunny picks but omg why!!!!!!!!!!

Literally im making mighty python jokes in TS and everyone is laughing except when a bunny popped into the hammer fractal and killed 3 of us at the boss.

So recap, you made fractals harder overall. Did nothing to increase the value of zerk players but definitely made a case for more people to run condi necros and druids.

But i guess we all should just reroll our gear to play such mine blowing comps. Hey bring full MM necro with s/d. Necro says “what about break bar”? All the other necros say “who cares” hahahahahahahahahahahaahahahahaahahahahahaaha

Well toughness scaling was changed, which makes power builds more efficient than they were previously. That doesnt mean that fractals will be faceroll with any player playing any profession or that necromancers will be bad going forward.

Power builds are fine in fracs, but not everyone can pull it off

1) DPS stands for damage per sec, which all builds provide in various degrees. The term you’re looking for is power.

2) Patch definitely made it easier for power in terms of how much damage you’re dealing. It’s just the instabilities that make it harder for people who simply can’t position well. People were clearing high fractals before the necro hype, I’m sure those same people can do the same right now as well. The instability has even been significantly nerfed, so yes, it’s a learn to play issue at this point.

3) Most people who have done uncategorized knows that the bunny 1 shots with it’s high jump kick skill. Just dodge it and you should be able to down it before it gets its next one off. The fact that your party wiped to the bunny in the first place sort of says a lot about the skill level of the party.

4) That’s the uncategorized fractal, the bunny is in its natural environment.

Nothing changed, people ran Necros before the patch became it made fractals easy, and people still do it now. Necros were not the most efficient way to run the content even before the update, just the easiest.
Power is just harder to pull off, but will be more rewarding, time wise.

Don’t blame the game, blame the players ^^.

FYI, Necros (specially Reapers) have plenty of CC.

This, it’s a simple l2p issue. Anyway, the instability bunny vanishes after ~10 seconds if you don’t kill it.

champ rabbit too str0nk apparently lol.

The big numbers flashing up from my Tempest’s screen disagree

Necro is still easier, but now that I can reliably do more damage on my elementalist than I can on my necromancer in t4s (because let’s be honest, barely any of those 4 necromancer groups actually understood how to use epidemic or cared to), I actually get to choose one or the other, which makes a huge difference to me

Anet plz nerf rabbit
