Guild Wars 2

@Brutalisk

Sword teleport only works if i attacked you first… i cannot break out of stun if you attack me first with it. It also has 600 yard range teleport, which is less then any ranged attack. Its only Thing thats good about it is that i can teleport back if i am in trouble. If it didnt had teleport back, why not use heartseeker ? 2-3x damage less tottal innitiative cost. What would be the reason to use that ability if not teleport back.

Red Chamalee…. rofl…. GANK is back?

Yeah, ure the first one to notice, lol!
btw,this thread is pointless, the OP is a blatant liar/exagerating, and a poor player, stop this useless thread. To much speculation for a useless player that on first more deep glance at screenies backed off imediatelly.

TL;DR:

the people in charge of pvp at the office dropped the ball, and continue to do so. pvp sucks in gw2, having the opposite of what the game mechanics are advertised as.

Who is in charge of sPvP? He has a name we should show him the respect of identity, Jonathan ‘Chaplin’ Sharp here’s looking at you.

seriously? a warrior whining about a thief? I seen it all. l2p

^ I hate these kinds of posters
to much bias and trolling in this thread imo

people need to look at this in a general sense for what it is:
thieves can currently hit people too hard too quickly and this combo is very hard to avoid and usually ends up with my character dying before I’m able to react

now you can give plenty of counter argument’s and opinions or deflect the subject like the quoted poster shifting blame on the players class as to why this is ok or shouldn’t change but people can go around arguing this forever and never get real answers.

at the end of the day the truth usually ends up being the census of opinion and I’m fairly sure Anet listen’s to there community (ascendance gear scare and the AMA for exp) and will find more people complaining about this then are actually for the dmg thieves can spit out and how.

last time i checked the most common glasscannon build in tpvp that actually causes problems would be 100b warriors haste,bullscharge,100b,spin off into the distance like 15k dmg too everyone in the area… personally i think people need to learn to adapt and change, theres always gonna be people playing glass cannons and bunkers

I play a lot tpvp both pugs and pre-mades and I can vouch that there is a lot of 100b warriors and I think that is due to how they can still manage decent armor and health while running the build

though I agree they are common I feel that all the other glass cannon builds are just as common. shatter mesmer, back stab thief, quickness ranger etc…

the main reason why is even though they are very squishy people know they can get away with them due to good play and a team composition that synergies well with glassy builds.

I realize I am re-hashing a long since beaten horse, but nothing is being done and I can’t wrap my head around why anyone at ANet thinks this is fair.

My stats for this particular tourney attached. Warrior mace/shield + gs spec, 30/10/0/30/0, not glass cannon but not a ‘tank’ either. Earth runes for protection, accuracy/blood sigils. Pretty ‘tanky’ spec overall.

Top Chat Log: 96% of my health was obliterated in the span of 2 seconds in four abilities.

Bot Chat Log: The thiekittenAUTO ATTACK*** lotus and wild strikes hit for 3k each? Additionally, my stun break was on CD so every one of those hits landed in a single basilisk venom.

I don’t have the ss of taking a backstab for 13k unfortunately… So here are my questions

1) ANet, why is this happening? I mean…I don’t think it takes months of QA or a rocket scientist to see how outrageously overpowered that damage is.

2) What’s the point in adding any kind of toughness whatsoever if it doesn’t seem to have an effect on damage mitigation worth a kitten I purposefully focused on raising toughness from the 966 default to the midway point to 2k solely to mitigate these types of ambushes…so what I took away from that is if I didnt have the toughness I had…I’d have been hit…harder?! You’ve got to be kidding me.

So really you’re telling us, the player, that there are 2 classes to play in competitive pvp…glass cannon thief and your-favorite-bunker-here. After all, the only game mode is conquest…and what’s better for taking and holding a node than a bunker. For a game that touts its flexibility you sure have pigeon holed us pretty well.

Im sorry to drag this topic up yet again but this has got to stop, plain and simple.

Oh and the kicker? Here’s the best part. Mid-way through the round that player switched from Engineer to Thief….I won’t even start as to who thought that mid-round class swaps during a tourney was a good idea….

Btw..if he is who i think, consider yourself lucky you had been able to understand what happened when you died…because that name and Gank guild, in gw1 HA, usually meant you were 99% doomed no matter what

He must definetely be the chamalee we all know from tombz, just look at how he dealt with this silly warrior on the bottom chat: first,this warrior is using whirwind attack on some guy called downtime, u can see this guy getting hit; in the meantime the warrior is completely oblivious to the presence of chamalee, otherwise he wouldnt attack that other guy; chamalee waited for this silly warrior to end the whirwind thingie, AND only after he went for the kill, notice how the warrior never hit chamalee, if he did, whirwind would have put a dent on chamalee,its risky, thats why the thief waited cleverly; now look at the end, the downtime guy is still alive and hiting the warrior… the screenie is self explanatory, but the masses are extremely gullible.
