Guild Wars 2

Between 2 MM necros, a spirit ranger and a mesmer, my screen was littered with AI pets…

Me and a guardian did our best and we did survive for quite a while against this pet army onslaught, the owners of these pets were just spamming the auto-attack and immobilize skills..truly horrible.

I know this will never change so I hope something like this won’t happen in my next game.

At the very least you realized this game will never be E-sport.

E-sports bro #yolo

Okittenep seeing this silly statement of Spirit Ranger just spamming their Auto Attack Over and Over again..

You’re aware that any Ranger with Shortbow uses everyone of his Shortbow abilities right?

The reason it seems like spam is because none of those abilities hit harder then the actual auto attack, Nor do they have really a different animation.

They’re also Situational Abilities.

The point is that there are too many AI elements in the game. I’m fine if they exist, as long as the cooldown on them is much greater.

I can’t see a thing in the middle of the battle because of all the particles/minions/clones/bombs etc. I just want the camera to be able to back up further so that I can maybe see myself.

Yea I agree. But I am fine with Mesmer clones, etc and Ranger Pets. Just the MM Necro and Spirit Rangers really make the game less of “skill” and more just random clutter zerg-like battles. There really isn’t a feeling of epic duels at all.

The current philosophy of MM Necro’s and Spirit Rangers are more like “more is better” and “zerg”, rather than each one truly serving a purpose for battle. They absorb damage and get in the way more than actually being useful for specific roles.

The thing to do is to play a small Asura and hide behind your AI things while spamming skills asap off cooldown.

Mesmers alone are fine with AI clones, it’s just that when you have other classes having AI’s as well, then things can messy real quick visually. Ranger’s and Necros can live without being AI dependent. Mesmer’s need them.

PVP would be so much better they made the current meta for Rangers more so back to Trap Ranger instead of Spirit zergs. Or make the spirits more like trash mobs that buff well. Same with MM Necro.

PVP at the core should always be Player vs Player hence PVP. Go from there.

But but but.. Petting Zoo

Would be nice to fight actual players in PvP, if I wanted to kite around AI all day there’s PvE.

So you lost a 2v4 and it’s the games fault. Did you think this one through?

That’s technically a 2v21 not 2v4. And yes, it’s the game’s fault.

No, it’s a 2v4, unless your skill puts you on par with a ranger pet or iduelist.

Let’s drop the necros and make it a 2v2. Now how many pets are attacking? The ranger pet, and a couple of phantasms. Clones too of course, doing about 7-8 dps each. Too much to handle?

No wonder they survived quite a while vs 4.

Solo Que I can see this being a problem, but in Team Que they just get stomped. They will beat bad team’s but that’s about it. If you face that lineup in Solo Que that just majorly unlucky.

i just pray that this game won’t add even more pets like wow kept doing to a point where every class had some kind of pet and arena became pvp = player vs pet

This game sometimes, man. There’s also another minionmancer up on the keep point. That’s right, too much PETTING ZOO to fit in one screenshot.

I blame everyone who complained that minions and turrets and stuff weren’t viable, because apparently if you complain enough that’s what gets changed and not everything else. How is it fun to have the AI do the fighting for you anyway?

GW2 PVP. SO GOOD.
Every godkitten necro at pvp is minion necro. kitten kitten kitten it. kitten it all to kitten.
