Guild Wars 2

Setting time.

I am currently in diamond attempting to reach legendary.

I mostly play two classes. Ranger and Necromancer.

I have little to no experience with any other class when it comes to PvP. I make those classes long enough to learn there combos and how there traits work. Not long enough to be even slightly competent with them.

What this mandatory achievement means. Is what when I go for it. I am throwing pips down the drain attempting to get wins on a class that I have 0 competency with. Meaning I am basically queing again and again hoping to get carried.

I don’t enjoy playing the other classes. So its not even fun for me during the match.

And that isn’t even the worst part.

I am hurting other players doing this. I am actually harming my team mates for queing on a class and build that I don’t know well enough.

At the very least it isn’t fair to them.

I have no desire to spend months in unranked playing a class and build I hate. But at the same time if I que in ranked on these builds before I learn them I hurt those that I am teamed with.

I will say this. I won’t be playing this other class any more than I absolutely have to for the achievment. I will be deleting it the second I can. kitten far it has had not even a single good memory attached to it.

What I ask is that this achievment be changed. Or even removed from being required. As it is. Ill continue queing. And continue screwing over other people in the vain hope that I get 5 wins with this so I can forget about it until I have to do this again in tier 3. Only for SEVEN wins then.

(Edited in order to make it less obnoxious to read)

On my main I can get paired with absolutely terrible people and lose matches, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

On my alts I’m proficient with, the same thing is true, and I can win/lose matches all the same.

Meanwhile since I have to pick up a few extra classes to get the achievement, I find it pretty simple to throw together a build and just go to town on the enemy team to rack up the wins. Sure, I have to contribute, but until I roll a team who does the same I don’t expect the wins to follow. But they will.

Case in point I busted out Ranger last night, building a Zerker LB Power ranger, 39 matches on the ranger since release, no WvW experience, and none since before the HoT/BWE’s.
