Guild Wars 2

I have to say, im almost done unlocking glint, and a lot of my opinions have changed.

I originally didnt like anything but glint, but now im having trouble playing anything other than shiro. I kind of annoyed that we dont have a warrior/Guardian GS type power attack, aka 100bs. All of our damage coming from auto attack works wonders, but im sitting here with an ascended staff that feels absolutely worthless.

Hammer is imo the best ranged weapon besides ele staff.

I dont feel as powerful as my reaper or chrono, or baseline warrior for the most part, but I do feel like one of the more powerful specs for pve (so far, just doing HoT stuff and such).

Really enjoying it way more than I expected. Very well made, and tied with chrono and reaper as my favs. Scrapper and Tempest are btw way better than people give credit too

I find I actually like jalis more than shiro…..who would have guessed.

I’m condi, and I’m going straight for glint, I have so much success with Mallyx that I rarely go into Shiro unless I’m using superspeed for travel.

My main characters are Warrior, Elementalist and Engineer. Playing without swiftness has been a pain. I’m still 60 points away from Facet of Elements.

But I actually enjoyed Jalis a lot more than during beta. The Vengeful Hammers kept me alive in many situations.

im really disliking staff so far. ive tried any reason to use it and I Feel like its just so bad that its still in beta 1.

other than, I do agree, I like jalis a lot. I actually was doing better using jalis before I got glint…

40pts left til complete wooo

Im playing mallyx/shiro with hammer – mace/axe. traits – corr, ret, dev. armor is a mix of zerk, soldier, cele.

it works rly well, able to handle just about anything in the jungle with ease.

Jalis/Shiro, zerker/assassin + runes of speed. A little squishy perhaps, but still, when I’m downed it almost always feels like it was because I played it wrong, not because I have the wrong stats.

And when I play it right, I’m wrecking everything. I love this profession.

42% of Glint unlocked so far. It feels like a long road. Having nice guildmates definitely helps.

I’m glad I’m not much one for alts…

I love staff! love it.

need some buffs in numbers on heals, but nice weapon.

Every weapon has it’s uses.

MH Sword has the OP auto-attack and the awesome Unrelenting Assault.

OH Sword has the block and the CC, good for defense.

Axe has the teleport, which is really nice though kinda redundant with Shiro, though I really feel the line pull is really weak.

Mace has a fire field, blast finisher and I heard it’s pretty good condi damage.

Hammer is just flat out OP ranged damage.

Staff has one little secret: it’s the Fiery Rush (ol’ good Fiery Greatsword times) of the Break Bar destruction

Since I don’t have the Herald’s perma swiftness yet, I teleport/Super Speed around the battlefield and use Quickness to kill the Mordrem really, really fast.

Most of the time I also bring Jalis for party defense with the Elite for tough spots or the Vengeful Hammers for self-defense, and the heal is the biggest burst heal we have which also clears 3 conditions. Having a 10s lightning field ain’t bad either. I dunno, I just can’t like Mallyx for some reason, feels so boring.

I joined a high lvl cliffside and they were struggling on the last encounter, whereas shiro jalis came in good use with jade winds as opener on mobs or rite of the great dwarf dmg reduction, this combo made those squishy cloth members stay alive

I have been using Mallyx / jalis with rabid armor and runes & sigils of torment. Using the typical weapons for those two legends. It’s been a lot of fun
