Guild Wars 2

YEAH LET’S GO TO MID GUYS GREAT IDEA

Always an image speaks better than thousands words.

This kitten is freaking stupid….. no class has a chance anymore… at least against a team with 2 HGH engis you could somewhat deal with enough team condi cleanse. Now nope its GG. Anet you done goofed.

Turn around, spam 3 and dodge roll backwards. Then begins the real challenge of winning that 3v1

What a bunch of qqers.
Just dodge in and all those marks will disappear.

Normally I would, but given the wide range of those marks, there’s no way that I could evade past all of them. I’d still be hit by at least one or two of them once I landed, and possibly even three.

But if you’d like to show us a video of yourself dodge rolling through seven marks spanning that distance, please, be my guest.

Actually, if you look closely, there are four.

Either way, if I did that, I certainly wouldn’t get through all of the marks. I’d still be hit by some of them, severely crippling me (in both senses of the word), and I’d have used up some of my CD’s. All so that I could get melted on the other side.

I can 1v2 fairly easily, but at 1v3… Well, you know how it is.

EDIT: nevermind there are only three. It’s been a long and rough day, and I’m tired.

That looks nasty ……

Maybe its time to give every class a stability skill that does not use up a utility slot. You could do away with stability as a utility and make it a mandatory/permanent feature in spvp. Maybe like a 5 sec stability on 45 sec cooldown hotbinded to some key. Just a thought :P

You can wait some seconds for the rest to disappear.
Two necros put those marks, why you think it should be easy to stay unharmed?

LOL… people try really hard to QQ now days

Roll for initiative/heal have an evade long enough to trigger all marks… OR yet a better idea, if they have 2-3 people camping 1 point, go cap the other 2 and outnumber them on every fight….

sadly this is what happens when people judge a class they haven’t played :S bet no one knew marks expire.. surprise surprise!!

Shadowstep to the open spot at the top right corner of the screen. It’s within 900 range. GG, marks. Or… just attack from the other side… or just admit that a stealth/mobility thief without stability or condi-cleansing is gonna be weak against classes stacking condi’s.

really? it’s just a single staff necro’s skills. no surprise you’re a thief. I’m guessing you’re just upset that you can be hit while stealthed.

I didn’t say this. What I was responding to was simply the volume of marks, which I found amusing (and caused a bunch of people to suddenly spit out random insults at me about QQ’ing and whatnot). I found the picture amusing, and for that people in this community want to behead me. Yet again.

On the other hand, the guy I was replying to did seem to believe that you could simply go through the marks unharmed.

Last time I was doing pvp (prior to the patch), there were barely any necros around.

Btw, you can dodge-roll trigger marks.
Btw2, you’re a thief, y so mad.

Arganthium.5638:

A thief complaining about other classes?

Now I’ve seen everything..

Lots of aggression, not many people found this funny like me?

Markilicious, om nom nom.

Arganthium.5638:

YEAH LET’S GO TO MID GUYS GREAT IDEA

Just use 7 or 6 while looking backwards and all those marks will go away like magic!

Arganthium.5638:

L2P! Dodge the marks and stop qq about it.

People are so mad about someone pointing out just how ridiculous certain classes are right now…. And a thief is prolly one of the least useful classes in PvP compared to others right now. He was just more having fun with it in his picture why is everyone immediately thinking he is calling for a nerf. And yes I do think necro is beyond OP but I think his picture is speaking a truth here. Also class stacking too if it was 3 engis on that point he would have had a rough time too.

I guess 3 mesmers, with 9 clones in total, doing 10k+ aoe damage would probably look more acceptable than 8 marks.

Go upperkeep and profit.

I have been on a three Mesmer team. It wasn’t pretty and it doesn’t work.

The op posted an image of a point with loads of marks and three people guarding the point.
So, either the OP tried to say how overpowered marks are because he didn’t know that just dodging through them will completely negate every effects or he knew that he could have been able to just dodge through them, then this topic is pointless.

You choose.

It’s funny cause they’re three, and you’re one, and you expect to have a chance.

Playing thief may distort the vision of odds of a fight.

Charging in with a dodge is about the worst suggestion anyone could have made. Really and what you think would happen when the dodge end in the middle of all those marks and the necromancers start attacking? Even if it was 3v3 or 3v4 charging into that is a suicide option.

Or the necros wont have every mark recharged and ready to be used again.. lol
“Soloq” is 40-50 % necros and yet no everything is fine
QQ

Lol so many angry people.

I laughed as soon as I opened thread and saw the pic, thanks.

There are no ridiculous classes, just ridiculous crying ppl asking for nerfs when they don’t know nothing about other classes abilities.

Oh wow! He totally knows you and the extent of your personal knowledge on Necromancer abilities.

Omg do me! Do I know what Necro abilities do??

So OP cannot solo 3 players on that point. Tough life for thief I know, but you just need to l2p and adapt.

Shalla.3967:

This was in solo queue; I wasn’t exactly going against professionals.

I should also mention that I didn’t know that three opponents would be on/near point when I got to mid.

But anyways, my build allows for me to fight within a 1v2 capacity on-point fairly easily, although it’s difficult/impossible for me to win a 1v2, ultimately. Of course, there are a lot of variations that could allow me to win, but… In general, I’m not going to win. Eventually, I’ll just have to retreat.

1v3 isn’t much different, except that at that point the odds become so heavily imbalanced in my enemies’ favor that I have to be extremely careful. I have to create an easy retreat option once I enter the battle.

Apart from that, 1v3 is mostly only different in that my enemies are highly congested, making each deal less damage on average but dealing more total damage than a 1v2.

But no, I did not come expecting to win. I came to the point expecting to delay my opponents significantly.

EDIT: I should also mention that I run Soldier’s ammie, which has caused me to be the subject of much criticism, but does allow me to 1v2 and occasionally 1v3, especially with evasion.

Thief class is like cocaine, once you try it, you think you are on top of the world.

L2P, dodge through them, actually what they did was just a waste of very important skills.

I’d totally Leeroy Jenkins there.

i laughed so hard

VictorTroska.3725:

What this guy said.
If you cant 1v3 then wait for backup. Also don’t rush in where they are strongest, as you can see if you come from the other side they are weak as well as from up top.

Strike where they are weak, avoid where they are strong.

Another thing about marks is when they are placed they go on a cooldown and if nobody runs into it, its useless. Dodge rolling through 2 marks is like dodgerolling somebody using two skills, remember that.

You can see by the image they are premade, your prob solo que and they expect you to be newb and run through all of those instead of going around.
Play smart!

If you rerolled Necro you would’ve killed all 3 necros.

Why do thieves think they have a right to 1vEverybody in every situation?

I don’t think he was actually going to charge through all that. He was more just kinda like wow…. That’s a lot of marks. lol. Notice how he didn’t go to the point.

Cry me a river.

I just love how everybody has interpreted a picture I put up on the forums for a bit of a laugh as being some kind of taboo QQ’ing session.

Started my day laughing, thanks for that OP.
The amount of wrong in that picture is staggering, someone is using blood fiend for a heal, ton of marks…. dropped so they can be dodged and ignored.

That many people in this thread don’t seem to know that if you dodge roll a mark it triggers without actually DOING ANYTHING AT ALL, IT BECOMES WASTED also gave me a chuckle.
