Guild Wars 2

1. If I log off while I’m queue’d… does that count as a leave? I’ve never paid too much attention to that.

2. Why are there a ranger, an engi and a necro in every single kittening solo queue game?

It should remove you from the queue if you log off if you are not matched yet. If you do get matched however, it’ll count as a loss. And they are there because people don’t like having disadvantages, if you can get a rocket launcher instead of a pistol—why not take the rocket launcher? The real question is why we are even able to get a rocket launcher in the first place.

You take the pistol instead of the rocket launcher because you can use it in cramped areas, don’t have to worry about back-blast, have more than one shot, and don’t feel like lugging around a twenty pound metal beam.
But, as it can be seen, not everyone knows about the downsides.

Lol, you again. You fill in the details that aren’t true. This rocket launcher has infinite shots, and pistol has just one barrel that you have to use sparingly. The rocket launcher is designed to have no back-blast and it’s super light.

Regardless, no point in having a better time in cramped situations if that situation never comes up. But on the serious note about my point, those classes are far superior and have a low skill cap. That’s why people choose them.

Too bad in GW2 back blast doesn’t exist, you have infinite ammo, and weight isn’t a concern. And don’t get me started on how beneficial “cramped areas” are for this much AoE.

Good on you for trying to attack the anaology rather than the facts, I guess?

I mean, do any of those things apply to the classes listed? There’s no friendly fire problem with any of those classes (“Back Blast”), One of the bigger complaints about those classes is how rapidly and frequently they can spam their abilities (“have more than one shot”), cramped areas are actually a huge bonus for any of those classes due the AoE nature of all their attacks (“Cant use it in cramped areas”). I guess your “lugging around a 20 pound metal beam” almost has some relevance, as neither class is very mobile; the only problem there is it’s not a fault of the spec, persay, they’re both just classes with less mobility in general.
