Guild Wars 2

And here is why!

When you play melee in highrank tourney matches…the biggest problem you will face is ppl walking through you making ALL your abbilitys miss since u cant hit targets behinde you.

So the best counter to melee is walking through your opponent and when he start to turn you are alrdy on the way to walk through him again and this is easly done with a hotkey that lets you turn 180* in asplit second…so when i play on a caster I really really want to be in melee range because melee cant hit me unless they lockmedown wich they cant because they miss when i walk through them.

And when i play hammer mace mace warrior it is a nightmare to time backbreaker with 1 sec casttime so either ur target is out of range or simply walked through me…The only things that “ghostwalking” work against is thiefs with autoaimed attacks like Hs and Db

There’s an option in the options panel that prevents you from moving through your target if you’re a melee. See if that helps. :\

I think he means the other way around. Prevent the enemy from walking through you. So you can hit them without them just walking past your attacks.

Why would i want to turn that off??? they can still walk through me even if i cant walk through them…make sense?

My advice was to turn that on, so you don’t accidentally run through them while attacking even though they can still run through you. If you actually want to be able to run through them as well, then turn it off.

Bodyblocking would be nice but it ain’t gonna happen anytime soon. So for the moment, if you want to stop people from running through you, then position yourself better I guess.

If you want a solution to your problems next time, try to avoid writing like an elementary school kid on acid, so people can understand you properly.

I do this with my greatsword ranger to other melee classes. On top of me walking in and out of people, I’m also evading all attacks on the third swing. However, if I see a Hammer or a Necro I tuck my tail between my legs and fly away with 3.

I would like to see bodyblocking. If they can give you the option to turn it on, they should be able to make everyone turn it on automatically shouldnt they? Could be an easy fix. Why keep it off?

Agreed 100%

I believe they said it was not something they could do in large fights like pve or wvw. I agree though it should be forced in spvp, it can enable bodyblocking strats like gw1 and prevent these silly targeting issues.

It could work. Or it could be very clunky if you keep running into people and having your character stopped in their tracks.
I am a supporter of body blocking, but not sure how some things would be handled.
i.e. would you be able to dodge through a body block? GW1 was all about the body block, but the game was different in design and play.

seems like you’ve found a solution by yourself

I read that people say that I should turn the option that disables me from walking through people. This stops ME from walking through people but it doesent stop my opponent from walking through me. So I get in a disadvatage wich isent what I want.

Bodyblocking would make the players think on how the positions them self and if they block of an area they are very vunreble to aoe…its a dubbel egde sword
