Guild Wars 2

The game was released exactly one year ago, before the release we had 3 beta weekends and even at that time you could see that no ele was using : focus-conjure skills-glyph of lesser elemental-tornado-Fiery great sword..and after the EA nerf nobody ever used again staff in tPvP.

At this time there is absolutely need for me to give any explanation on why this happens or how it could be improved, there are over a dozen threads in the ele sub-forum with hundreds of posts with suggestions for the devs.

It has been more than year and nothing has been done to solve the issues, all we had were these pointless changes that make you wonder if the devs read the sub-forums
at all:

-Tornado : – 30s CD, the problem was never the CD…the problem is we get killed while in it, we get kited by everybody and everything, it offers no protection, it deals incredible low dmg…it’s basically useless

-Conjures : to add stats buff to them..was completely useless again, you went off in another direction totally ignoring what all the ele community was trying to say

-Focus : To add cripple to magnetic wave was pointless, we need additions to the other skills, to add even more to already good skills changes nothing because you can’t expect eles to sit in earth all the time and once you do leave earth you’re totally screwed with spells like : Flamewall and fire shield or freezing gust

Pls no more : " We’re looking into it…", it has been more than year and nothing has changed

this game unfortunately has one of the worst development teams i have ever seen, thats it really.

this game unfortunately has one of the worst development teams i have ever seen, thats it really.

I’ve seen worse, way worse.

How many times do they have to tell us that they read the forums and don’t always have time to reply?

spoiler:

“Its on the Horizont!!!”

You think elementalists are unique?

Rangers don’t use range, are forced into conditions, and are the worst condition class in the game.

Warriors jump from gimmick to gimmick without ever finding any real lasting purpose.

Engineers still have grenades and that’s it.

The developers are spending too much time catering to the sPvP crowd and have thrown overall class balance out the window in order to maintain some consistency in sPvP and even at that, they’ve failed.

Reroll Guardian like most and count yourself lucky it’s only your sPvP char. Try playing the rest of the game that’s dragged around by their [censored] at your whim.

Recently i read a preview of new everquest game where there was this dev responce to the question "arent you afraid of giving so many skill/build choices to players balance wise? ..their answer was “we care more about fun !” (not exact quotes btw :P )
Gw2 devs have done everything in the name of balance.
They tiered traits,watered down gameplay elements and skills,homogenized the classes and they keep doing that till now..
And what did we get from that?Still not all classes viable just switched places,still 1 at best 2 viable builds and less and less FUN after each patch..
Sometimes im wondering why im still playing this and havent gone to LoL or another moba

The GW2 community is to blame also, there are far too many QQ thread and Anet spend far too much time trying to please all the care bears who lose a 1vs1 and start a "profession X is OP, pls nerf " thread.

No chance is given to the devs if a weapon set suddenly become viable, the next day after a balance patch you get somebody who start a QQ thread because he lost to profession X and his new toy

We don’t go forward, always the same utilities and same traits

Balance is a myth. /thread
