This pretty much sums up combat in WvW. Is this really what you designers had in mind for WvW? Why is my character CONSTANTLY stunned, dazed, and downed? Here’s a hint: that’s not fun. It’s also not what I want in return for my hard-earned money.

Get some damage mitigation. Dodge 1.5sec after you see someone stealth offensively while targeting you.

This doesn’t sound like l2p issues at all.

Roll a meta DH, practice a bit and faceroll most stealth builds.

Since HoT, no average player in a meta build should be going down fast outside of multiple attackers. HoT upped the defensive capability tremendously. Three years ago, a thief could burst down even a tanky player fast. That doesn’t happen anymore outside of poor play, bad builds or overly specialized builds caught in the open.

Maybe you can start by providing your class/build first so people who play that class can help instead of running to the forums and QQing.

People are usually willing to help with this sort of thing because 99% of the time it’s a L2P issue.

Just “Roam” in a group of 10 with mercy runes and res food like all “Roamers” in 2017.

That wouldn’t make them “Roamers” then but “Havocers”, thus stating the 2nd “Roamers” becomes void :p

Seeing as he is mentioning stealth, decent chance he’s getting slapped around on thief.

And if that’s the case, learn to play.

I’m not sure if the OP is saying that his opponent stealths and he is downed or if he stealths and is downed. Both can happen. The latter generally happens only due to AoE.

I remember back shortly after launch the devs said they thought there might be too much AoE in the game. There was a lot of pushback from players, and they pretty much abandoned the idea. There are times I wonder if the game would be better without so much AoE. It would certainly be different.

The thread title is misleading. I was about to suggest that stealth =/= damage immunity.
Yes, stealth is the most annoying mechanic in the game to deal with. No, they’re not invincible. If you know a thief is about to smack you, pop some stability and ready your counterattack. They’re usually pretty squishy.
Mesmers… are a little more difficult I’ll admit.

You can’t just go in with staff ele, bunker guard or whatever and expect to 1vsX people with a zerging build, most thieves or mesmers wandering alone or small groups win because they are built to fight against single target players.
If you’re playing a zerg build just stick with the tag and don’t be a tail then those stealth gank roamers won’t get you. If you want to chase squirrels then get a build or class that is capable of fighting them. Playing and learning PvP helps deal with smaller fights; make a medi trapper DH or shout druid or dd ele or thief or whatever, but its rare/impossible to have a build that has amazing team support as well as able to deal with gankers.
