Guild Wars 2

Anet, Specific class wins in the pvp achievement is a bad idea. A lot of players would wait until they are at a point where they cannot loose any pips to try to complete these achievement. Since they know they will probably loose playing a class they are not good at, causing others in the team to loose pips.

A simple change is to allow 3 different class wins in both ranked and unranked games during a pvp season. This still forces the players to try different classes, but it will not affect others while doing so.

Funny part i had way better win rate on classes i barely play (and did those achives on) than on my main. Got through half of diamond on necro/rev.

Not that incredible.
Try swap from warrior o thief to a meta bunker.

I thought you get a lower mmr rating on classes you dont play, mmr is profession specific.

supposely they disabled it but i am not so sure

on my main i get 1 pip per win, on my alts i get 2 pips per win

Specific mmr per profession should be currently disabled.

is toxic everyone’s new favorite word or something?

The whole pvp community is very toxic. Half the time they want to report you for not doing as they say. I am not playing pvp to take orders from random other people I never met before.

Well, people do this, me included. I solo q to diamond with my Rev. Now I need to do the achievement for 2 other classes. I almost did it with ele, with not bad of a ratio but definitely not at my Rev level.

The only other class I know is Warrior…… to be honest I don’t even want to step in to ranked arena in Diamond with a warrior. I would get cursed out and reported in seconds. My other choices are classes that I never ever pvp with. Even practicing in unranked I doubt I can pull my own weight in diamond anytime soon. If I step into ranked, I’ll be causing other’s to loose pips for sure.

If Anet simply allow us to complete these achievement in unranked area, most would still play other classes in unranked game. If they discover they like the new class, they will bring it to the ranked games, and they will never affect other’s ranked arena experience while doing so.

I do feel pretty bad trying to get these done, I’ve played exclusively a Mesmer for all 3 and a bit years (I learn the other classes by dueling and observing). I’m just horrendous as the other classes, I feel so bad for team mates.

I think I’ll just try and pick these up at the start of seasons, shouldn’t be too bad if playing through Amber as a Rev and w/e is stupidly easy and strong next season.

Apparently, you can just swap profession right before the end of the match… et voilà!

If this gets too well known I predict A LOT of rage from teams all leaving to reroll.

Ha, ha, ha! This achievement was so painful. I waited to get to legendary before trying the 3rd class. I can really only play Ranger, and Mesmer well.

My first thought was to try tempest… Big mistake. One of my teammates got so mad after that match he asked everyone to report me. “No one can do THAT bad!” I beg to differ. Try playing a class you’ve never touched before, the first time in Legendary league.

Yeah, so after that, I rolled a DH. :-)

Yeah I have similar experience. My first few tempest match was a 5-game loosing streak. People whisper me left and right saying you are diamond really !? Since then I got better, but I felt bad for the pip loss for others.

Lose.

And yes, everyone just waits until they cannot lose points, then changes to professions they suck at. It really hurts the game.

hahaha similar experience. It would explain why there so many bad diamonds at one point.

Bad rubies as well. Whenever you get to a point you can’t loose pips, you try to complete this achievement.

I am leaving the t3 achievements (7 wins per prof) for next season. Barely managed those in t2 (5 wins per prof) without looking like a fool in the process.
