Guild Wars 2

In wvw is even worst as you can go all traiblazzers still heal like a druid. The balance is a joke.

PvP forum is <—- that way

But, yes, balance in GW2 is a joke.

pvp cancer —-→ wvw total aids.

Try that build in full traitblazzers with malix and ventari.

Still, it’s pretty bad in wvw too. A friend was running something similar in wvw and it was just dropping out 5k heals like it was nothing.

On a side note, is the background music 8-kittenerub Rock? That might be the start of a new music “meta” for gw2 vids. About time.

Edit: Man… the kitten filter is strict. It deployed on 8-bit_.Cherub Rock, and actually made it worse. Something about rubbing 8 kittens?

LOL.. class balance in GW2 is a Pathetic Joke. That is why it never even got close to becoming an e-sport.

Reminds me of… I miss Accelerant-Packed Turrets on Engineer. They even completely removed the traited knockback this last balance round for no apparent reason.

I’d expect them to nerf the knockback distance on the tablet like they did to turrets.

There’s actually a list of reasons, rather than blaming it on only one reason.

LoL was a horribly balanced game for quite a long time, yet became an e-sport.

The reality is, ANet didn’t have the funding needed to keep the game itself from imploding, let alone pump enough money into an e-sports scene to get it going.

NCSoft seemed pretty hesitant to toss funds at ANet back before they were doing expansions.

Couple that with a pretty boring to watch PvP mode, every streamer being an elitist (Or pretending to be an elitist) , and you couldn’t even get the casual scene sparked, let alone the e-sports scene.

At the end of the video I thought he might get some pressure as he faced a reaper, but the reaper was incredibly incompetent.

I don’t pvp these days but farmed tons of ventary healbots in wvw who were on their way to the zerg on spite/cures/reaper – power reaper.

(But yes these dudes seem to be surprised very often and not used to getting wrecked in under 20 seconds by a single opponent – which means there aren’t that much 1v1 counters to the build.)

Ya a good reaper build wrecks face tankers. About a year ago I rolled a reaper because I got sick of the tempest plague in wvw.

Andreill plays bunker druid and so has no dmg to kill anything let alone another bunker lol.

Never played LoL, it looked dorky, but, let me ask you a question, could you build one Jinx to be massively more powerful then any other Jinx, or were they all around the same?

why? this is called balance.

There was fine tuning you could do with rune pages & masteries, yes. Heck, you can still do that.

One of the things for ranked, is knowing what everyone runs on X character the other person chose, and grabbing enough armor penetration runes that would could do true damage in lane until they leveled up a bit.

Was something I would do on Ahri in order to get a level 3 gank top/bottom going, or to just kill the enemy mid at level 3.

Often I would choose the latter.

Now, mirror match-ups don’t happen in LoL’s ranked, so I can’t say “I can make my Ahri OP in comparison to another person’s Ahri”.

like LoL had balance…every now and then they put out OP heroes then nerf the hell out of it shove ur E-sports up your ass…wonder why I was begining to think that moba players had merged to GW2

Reaper should be able to deal enough pressure for ventari rev in WvW since each chill stack 3 bleeds instead of 1 in PvP.

Whoa there, there is no way GW2 was ever going to be an MOBA e-Sport type game. There is a massive difference between “has some balance issues” and “balance is a joke”.. GW2 is at the bad joke setting.

I mean, I don’t know what other MOBA’s you have played, but in my sampling GW2 balance is soo bad that it makes the other bad MOBA’s I have played look good. For example, one of the more well known failures to make an MOBA was Eternal Crusade, and GW2 class balance is so bad that it makes Eternal Crusade look kitten near perfect in it’s effort to balance the races/classes. (it’s not, trust me, but in comparison to how bad GW2 is, it can feel that way)

But that is because Anet tried to take what is a PvE game, with classes built to engage in an PvE environment and put them in a PvP arena, that is begging to fail from the onset.

balance is bad since HoT before that only mesmer was underpower by a little , you are new to GW2

If you really believe this, then you have never played a game that was even remotely balanced.
