Guild Wars 2

So I’m somewhat confused by the fact that Irenio on the Engi/Ranger forums is giving very small/vague notes about changes to to Scrapper/Druid based on beta feedback, but says that we will have to wait until the 23rd to see specific real details.

Meanwhile Karl, you have posted detailed changes for DD/DH on their respective forums, so I have to ask, will you be able to give us Tempest changes from BWE3 feedback, either vague, or detailed before the 23rd?

I know you’re probably insanely busy working on those changes, but it would be a huge help to all of the theorycrafters in this forum, myself included if you could give us some of the details soon, or at least confirmation that we’d have to wait until the 23rd if thats the case. Anyway, in either case, thanks for working so kitten Tempest and the other specs! We’re extremely grateful for all of your iterative work, and if DD/DH notes are anything to go by, I’m extremely optimistic about how Tempest will look after we see the fine-tuning you make for our beloved auramancing warhorn touting Avatar-State stormcallers!

Sigh… it’s disheartening.

Well the last beta was the first time that scrapper and druid where out so they have less play by players unlike tempest who has been out for 3 betas now with a lot more info and notes and play time. If your ok with being comply unfair to the classes who got a bit shafted for play time i guess that ok.

Yeah okay, then just go back in time and stop Karl from releasing DD/DH notes if you really want to be fair to scrapper and Druid.

Is it a good thing they are done with dd/dh already? If any thing i want them to keep working on tempest elite spec till the last sec we get nothing from getting info now. Are you going to play tempest once the notes are out you know before HoT is out?

Its fun to get info and all but because HoT is so near now the more time they have to play with things over giving out info that may not be comply true and going to changes seems pointless.

Yeah basically I just want to be able to theorycraft builds a head of time so I’m not scrambling to come up with working build ideas when launch happens.

Your link isn’t working, or at least it’s not on my phone lol.

Yea I totally think those builds can work, it’s just dealing with the condis seems like it will be difficult with that setup :/

O lol sry i linked from a pc. The build is very pt aimed so you should have condis removal from your pt not so much from your self. Though you could run dimon skin if you realy feel you need some counter condition. Keep in mind your getting -60% to all condition duration and – 93% to moment conditions.
Though in the last beta the WH GM Imbued Melodies was reading very odd it was as if it had 2 cd 10 sec for the 90% hp and the cd of Sand Squall that was effected by earth cdr i am not sure what was the true cd i did not test it. Sadly i only though of the build after the beta.
You can look at the code in game too. [&CC8HAAA=]
Still has 2 cd.

I want to cry about my tempest now and party kitten Oct 23rd…

Pleasee don’t make us cry on 23rd……. :’(

With full info we would be mentaly prepared. No info makes too much tension.

I think a portion of the Ele community already decided to move to Rev when HoT starts :P. It has everything.

Portion of all classes community are going to move to rev becuse its an crazy op class atm. That and a lot of the ele community is from the old banwagen group back when d/d ele was unkillable lol.

I will lvl up reve sure, but I’m Ele in my heart.

I’m going to play scrapper/rev and enjoy it. Might come back to tempest when it’s worth having in a raid.

I actually disliked playing Revenant a lot…xD

So, guys, since we had no new info, I wish you all good luck with the Tempest. May it work at launch, or else, many of us are going to re-roll our 3-year-old class.

Switching to revenant for sure. It outperforms ele in almost every aspect. Damage, cc, might stacking, boon sharing, mobility, you name it
