Guild Wars 2

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVAQNAR7dlsApbolDxaI8DNR8QlZd8iVGAJw1/wOkDA-TZRBwAduIA02focZgFHBAAPAAA

This is what I’m running.

I think it’s pretty efficient, I’ve been playing around a bit with weapons but I like this combo the most, especially because I tried going for Retaliation while mainting high power (especially with that rune armor set and weapon swap rune I can get to decent amounts of Might) and survivability/condition removal.

I have the exact same problem.

Never got to do the personal storyline on this character, I’m now level 51 and I can’t complete that quest, thus locking me out of every story chapter.

Sent a couple reports in game aswell, I hope they fix it fast.

weapon swap? in tpvp?
axe? in tpvp?

riiight.

That’s not about TP, he linked that simply to show how a full shatter kills a non-glass char in 2 seconds because you made ONE mistake and didn’t dodge the daze+immobilize shatter 0.5 window frame.

It’s bullkitten that if you make ONE mistake you drop dead, no other class can do this…oh wait, Thieves, and you would say Warriors aswell to some extent right? Wrong, under 100b you see the dmg coming to you because it scales up, therefore giving you more than 0.5 seconds to react, and even if you get a full 100b you don’t get 20k+ dmg with 3k armor.

GW failed as an esport?

GW was the precursor of e-sports, GW already had a ladder system since the start of the game, and internal tournaments were hosted, also with cash prizes.

Seether.7285:

The QP leaderboard I suppose is better than no sort of ranking at all, but not by much.

You’re so wrong, the QP leaderboard is a joke and an insult, it does NOT measure skill, sure, you have lots of QPs because you win a lot you say, true, true, but there’s also other teams out there that don’t play every day for 6 hours a day (like mine) yet we’re exactly on par as any other competitive team but we dont have 600 QP simply because we do not have the time.

QP is a sad excuse for a ladder.

Is it possible to change the e-mail associated with my account? Because I can’t find any way to do it, only password change.

Because excessive freedom on the Z-axis brings tons of exploits/unbalances.

Therefore underwater combat is bad for competitive PvP.

Schwahrheit.4203

Even better when you have someone to immobilize for you, immobilize + chain stun = NECRO DIES even with a stun break.

That’s why I use Scepter with 2 Warriors, the instant Immobilize is just so godlike that even if they get out of it, they still get tons of dmg in that 1 second.

I like this change, true, it causes less skillfull play in certain occasions where switching to a certain utility or weapon could make things go a different way, but this change also causes to try out new builds and new teamplay tactics, more thought will have to be done in order to achieve things rather than just “hurr durr ima switching mah weapon”.

Uhhh…I’m sorry? What video did you watch? As you can CLEARLY see, he gets a full 100b like 3 times during the whole video, most of the time he uses Rush End and Whirlwind because he’s forced to do so against heavy conditions teams least he gets his kitten smacked in a matter of seconds

Playing with 2 Warriors isn’t easy at all :\

Decided to go Shouts build on my Guardian just to support them non-stop since they’re very susceptible to conditions, that’s basically our Achille’s heel, but the burst they provide is just awesome.

The only thing to be expected is a huge lagfest lasting from 14th to the 20th because of Wintersday PvE crap.

Oh, and of course loading screen bug once again.

Our Warriors use Sword Shield / GS.

clearly not viable

Ok, you are free to believe what you want, we will provide proof soon enough anyway, also I doubt you asked any player as we’re well known among the top teams but not in the forums/community side of the game, you can just keep on being delusional over the fact that Warriors suck.

Also I have ABSOLUTELY NO REASON to come here and lie about the state of Warrior in TPvP.

I’m sorry to disappoint you but I’m not lying at all, you can check saved streams from Onibawan, Paradigm and other teams, and you’ll see for yourself, also if that’s not enough you can ask the players yourself, like Naito or others.

This is just to show how Warriors are underestimated and they’re 100% viable at a competitive level.

They are running GS obviously, full dps traits, and we’re running 2 Warriors simply because we found this is the best setup for us, and because it works against current meta.
Also we prefer them to Thieves simply because they have more AoE dmg and still similiar burst as to a Backstab Thief.

Why people keep saying Warriors aren’t viable in Paid TPvP?

My team runs two Warriors and I think we’re one of the few teams that play Warrior and I’m 100% sure the only one who plays two, so the question is…

Why do we win with two Warriors in Paid TPvP against top-tier teams?

This means Warriors are fine and 80% of the population doesn’t actually know how to play them properly at a competitive level.

Oh for the love of……stop saying Warriors aren’t viable in Paid TPvP, my team plays TWO (2) Warriors in paids, and I can assure you we’re on equal footing as every other pro competitive team there is at the moment.

kthx

Mechanics are the same in both tPvP and sPvP. If a Caltrop Thief is stacking 20+ stacks of bleeds on you because you stand on those nails, it’s true for both sPvP and tPvP, also I wasn’t talking about tPvP I was just telling you how things are since you judge other people based on what class they’re playing, and assume they have no knowledge of other classes whatsoever.
But I digress, we all tried to understand what the problem was here but nothing came out of it, I’m outta here.

What do you mean it’s not removing the conditions enough to dodge? What you keep saying in this thread makes no sense, we tried to help you, you keep babbling nonsense, and let me tell you one more thing, the fact that I main Guardian means nothing, as I know every single class since I had to learn them in order to play Paid TPvP in a competitive way.

No, you don’t have a “very good understanding” of the game mechanics, based on your posts and random ramblings it’s quite clear that you, in fact, don’t.
I’m sorry if I may seem rude but you just kept on saying you can’t dodge/heal those bleeding stacks…well you know that Bleeding is just ONE condition, so Healing Spring would suffice in removing it, and if it doesn’t you still have Spirit of Nature, which is quite strong aswell as you can use it just before you die and resurrect yourself.

Not sure if troll, but if not it’s clear you don’t have a basic understanding of this game mechanics, I’m sorry.

Adwila.1392 – Guardian – Guardianella

As I said I rebooted several times, and so did my friend, it worked the first time, now it doesn’t.

With WTFast the game runs smoothly without any problems, the funny thing is, once I close the game and try to relaunch it through WTFast I get this error:
Connection failed. Please try again.
Error Code: 3005:1015:2:903

I tried rebooting the computer and it fixed the issue, however when I closed the game the issue presented itself again, and now even after rebooting it still won’t work….

Oh and obviously If i try to log in (when I’m able to) without WTFast I don’t get any error tho I have obscene lag.

Of course I’m from Italy, Rome, and using Fastweb.

EDIT: A friend of mine is having the same issue with Fastweb and WTFast.

I can assure you there’s teams in that ladder that don’t even deserve the top 20, they simply have more QPs because they play more, or because since all good teams tend to sync in the same tournament bracket, even if a so called “good team” loses against them, they’ll just queue up for another Paid Tournament where it’ll be free of any good teams and proceed to wreck all the random teams and thus earn QPs.

Did you even read the whole thread produde.8092? Because I think you didn’t, Qualifying Points don’t mean ANYTHING, they only show how much you nerd on the game, they don’t show your skill AT ALL.

Aragiel.6132:

ticket should be obsolete then.. and therefore not used. the only currency that is needed is QP point for monthly / yearly tournaments then.

But QP don’t measure skill at all therefore they’re not a valid method to qualify for monthly / yearly tournaments, the whole system is flawed, the game doesn’t reward you for being good but rather for playing more.

The point is this game should’ve been an e-sport from the start, MMOs have evolved and you can’t launch a game unfinished in 2012.

This QP stuff is a freaking joke and an insult to the PvP community, wow I’m kittening rank 24 because I only play oh so much during the week with my team, people who play 24/7 will undoubtly get more QPs, this QP system makes no sense whatsoever, they have to do either one of these two things:
1) Keep Tournaments: but make maps random and that you get points everytime you win a match but you’ll get more if you win the 3rd one, and I’m not talking about a QP point system, I’m talking about a MMR system, like WoW, yea, WoW did it right for once.
2) Remove Tournaments: make that you queue for one match, you are paired vs a team, you get MMR if you win, you lose MMR if you don’t, again, just like WoW.

And to clarify, I’m not a WoW fanboy but I’ll be kitten if arenas weren’t designed correctly (without taking into account queue dodging etc, I’m talking about the system per se).

Based on your post I assume you don’t do serious tPvP but just random free tournaments and/or Hot Join, because let me tell you this: if you remove downed state it will only unbalance the game even more, why? Because burst builds will be mandatory, a player will get bursted down without a chance to come back into the fight, also in serious tournament matches the enemy rarely gets stomped on the first try, as soon as he goes down there’s at least 1 player ressing him, and the res is faster than the stomp as long as the downed player isn’t taking any dmg/is poisoned, therefore downed state is needed to balance the game since it lacks a dedicated healing class and would make burst builds too strong.

no one knows?

Didn’t know where to post this but this seemed the most appropriate section since it’s about PvP.

Question is: if I buy an armor set from the gem store, can I use it to remodel my PvP armor and thus wear it in sPvP?

Does Training of the Master [IX] in Spite trait line increase the damage from the Rock Dog which procs off of Superior Rune of the Ogre?
