Guild Wars 2

If a cliff can do this to an OP thief, just imagine what it can do to you.

Things you need to know about cliffs:

1. They are immune to conditions.
2. They are immune to direct damage.
3. They are immune to all CC.
4. They can and will one shot you.

That is all………

I noticed a severe lack of Dynnen in this video…

Fearing people off cliffs is really amusing.

Cliff vs. Lag … who wins and why

Go.

5. Cliffs don’t abuse culling. They don’t need do.

Amazing thread and post.

I love people expecting me to backstab or something… then using a stolen Necro’s fear to send them off cliffs.

Cliffs are everything awesome about WvW.

At least in Warhammer you could block fall damage if you had a shield.

Using a giant noob that doesnt even invis is a completely irrelevant example to use any in class balance discussion. It was probably his first 5 mins ever zoning into WvW.

So, you disagree that cliffs are totally overpowered?

The cliff demands a sacrifice. Or five.

Not the engineer. The cliff. The cliff is OP. It oneshot 4 people all at once after the engineer died.

Yes, cliff is OP xD
It can kill you and your enemy at the same time.

I’ve witnessed twice an enemy player lying next to someone under a high cliff, and both of them were dead, which made them look like Romeo and Juliet lol

I heard that Anet realized that cliffs were too strong in beta, so they made necros

The cliff is not op, the ground is what kills you.

Ground under cliffs is OP.

Cliffs? I have no problems with them

I loled all through this thread.

Thank you for it.

I have seen a cliff killing 25 people+

I don’t have the screenshot to proof it, but I am sure I can find somebody who took one.

Lol I’m sure there are 100 ppl on that screenshot, but because of culling i don’t see them!

The cliff is causing culling!

I’ve taken a lot of dumb deaths trying to do this sort of thing, but when it works it’s all worth it.

Everyone have a trait against Cliffs… But people are too busy focused on thieves that they forget the cliff power and die because of it.

…and one more for good measure.

In other games it is that insidious Miss Adventure that sneaks up on you and kills you when your back is turned. Here it is Cliff, definately OP and worse then an ele on steroids.

Awesome.

But I think this add to the case that in WvW loot should not be a drop.
We all know in WvW you can get so busy in a fight that you can be pushed from one part of the map to another and cannot go back for your loot.
And in this instance a fight can be so close that both parties die and there is no way to pick up the loot bags.
Sometimes you might be able to run back in time before they despawn, but most times you cannot even get back.

So instead maybe add a chest at the spawn where you can collect your loot from after a battle?

My favorite cliff kill was fearing a TC mesmer off the hills keep while he was attempting to set up a portal after we had taken it. I saw him set the first portal and chased him to the edge of a cliff and feared him off with reaper’s mark. I guess he didn’t realize necros + cliffs get along well.

Or just put it directly in inventory. If your inventory is full, you would still get the “you got loot” window.

On the other hand, in Warhammer you could die from getting stuck on a blade of grass.

All hail the mighty cliff! It’s hilarious when a Ranger uses the LB #4 to shoot an enemy off a cliff. Most people don’t expect a Ranger to use one, so the second it happens I laugh so hard because they hit the ground and I get that lovely exp.

As a mesmer using a focus, I love the Cliff, its properly overpowered and needs an immediate nerf.

I swear I’ve seen orange swords (pre-update for sure) when large groups go cliffdiving.

Trait into fall damage resistance……..

This one time, we did garrison golem sky diving. Little bit like the Cliff diving enemy lemmings, but with 8 golems and friendlies (no nerfs needed here).

Thats right, he’s OP

I get close using my shortbow, then i weapon swap and use LB #4… I’m sure the enemy is all like “WTF?! He was using a SB!”

Cliffs are so OP they kill people without even having to move.

LOL! This could really work well if you have the twin longbow skin to your shortbow, since shortbows are just shorter versions of longbow skins in most cases.

the skins from ebonhawke for bows are very similar, the short bow is very long looking

Those people under the map that we thought were hacking are actually beta testers, expect “- Removed Ground ability” in the next patch notes.

No way cliffs are the only reason I play hammer guardian.

Stop press***

Necros are THE only counter to Cliffs :o

“Cliff” is the profession:
Ground is profession’s primary weapon
Shallow water their secondary weapon
Gravity is their elite skill.

It’s a known fact Cliff’s xploits their elite skills to get around it’s downtime.

Ahh now you have ruined it, people won’t chase me off a cliff any more!

Got to admit, shooting people near cliff edges, fearing them off, and pushing them off with the necro skills is one of the best bits of fun in wvw.

Cliffs are sexist/OP/sexist. I’d like to see them removed or at least made gender neutral.

In other news…….I like traiting for reduced fall damage and having people chase me off cliffs. Sometimes it works beautifully and I have to stop playing for a few minutes due to all the rampant laughter.
