Guild Wars 2

When I started playing GW2 3 years ago it was a very enjoyable game. Yes there were bugs here and there and balance was always a bit wonky, but manageable. This PVP season though, you’ve done it Anet…you win. The new rewards chest are tempting, but the overall system is absolutely busted. Diminishing returns on wins in rank, terrible matchmaking (same people in every match), you’re not welcome to play if you’re not playing one of the 4 favored classes, and the icing on the cake….the power-scaling. We’re down to what, 2 classes that don’t have at least one option for invulnerability against all attacks for 7-8 seconds? You say you want to shake up balance… WHEN?!?!?? It’s the same favored classes season after season. It’s the same punishment for being randomly assigned to a team that have different playstyles that don’t mesh, and the same story of “oh just wait for the MMR to settle”… Seriously. Some people have played what 12 games and are ranked legendary, yet others can win 12-15-20 in a row and still be stuck in silver because they only get 10 points a win. Having spoken with a few of those that work there, do ANY of them play all the classes? Had one tell me, oh, just use the same build that you do in WVW, it’s the same. It was like he’d never played the game before! Had another say oh, it must be balanced because such and such class is really popular. It’s popular despite your seemingly constant efforts to destroy it. Not everyone wants to play a guardian, a warrior, a ranger, or a necromancer.

So instead you should play thief, mesmer, rev, engi, or ele. Every class is good if you arent a baddy. Lol

I do play thief. Have for 3 years. I built a dragonhunter and brought him into a match after visiting metabattle.com… literally just mashed buttons and didn’t have anyone telling me to kill myself because of the class I was playing.

Nr.1 on EU leaderboards is thief main (hello Sindrener), just saying~

If someone tells you to kill yourself on thief you have succeeded in your job. Tilting someone so hard they whisper you to die is the best thing you could do on thief.

also, SO WHAT if they do?

If someone tells you to kill yourself, there’s not something wrong with what you’re doing. There’s something wrong with what THEY’RE doing!

Pretty sure he meant his own teammates telling him to kill himself.

I agree with the OP. All you really see is those 4 classes first. Hell I had a match with me (Engineer) with 4 Dragon Hunters. One of them switched to Druid then told me “There, happy now?” Ya I kittening was, but we still lost.
