theres 2, power with acro staff, and yes a condi version with d/d. U beat the condi version by ignoring it and forcing it into teamfights where it’s exceptionally useless, let it cap ur home point who cares outnumber mid and far right away. Unless ur a DH/mes/rev its gonna take forever to kill it and ur making it useful by letting it tie u up in a long drawn out fight. also Ele is a STRICT hard counter.

ok i am to try playing more situational aware. the thief always to lure off side or focus me sole after CDs are up, still very hard landing hit.

team fighting does help. i thank your replies in thread for help! still very awful build fight to against.

Sorry to tell you this (new dyes)

to me black dye is nice, but in combo with other color palette compliments entire outfit you don.

abyss is standard black dye on most outfit you at least see texture

shadow abyss is darkest and only look good on certain bits… too black no texture very tasteless.

i have not bother with glossy black yet but it look in between black and abyss which could help with some armor bit to not dye properly with older color.

[DISCUSSION] why do player complain nightcap?

in WvW

Posted by: Aethercat.7906

Aethercat.7906

why is it players complain about night-capping then proceed to suggest extremely socially unacceptable ‘solutions’ such as buffs that are active for THEIR night time-zones only? do they want to negate play time for countries existing half way across the globe from them? do they not want us to play as well?

- shutting down WvW for specific time periods
- changing score based on players in map
- disallowing certain mechanics to be used at X time

i think these suggestions have flaws that drive the community away but i also believe the root of the problem for stated night-caps primarily consists of the current state of the game mode that is wvw… players have left this game mode for various reasons cutting down population (esp post HoT expansion).

my intent is not to completely blame ANET for bad wvw features but i question if all the changes they have made prior & many silence for lengthy time is what has caused the population to drop thus leading to night-caps more frequently, for those who are still playing…

…if healthy game-mode of wvw is large population of players we would not be complaining of said night-caps because many players would be online around the clock, globally. sadly this is not the case because many flaws in wvw game mode and players have abandoned; down-hill spiral inevitably with our pleas fallen on deaf ears.

i have naught suggestions for improvement for issues regarding night-caps or population balance but i do state players need to think before they suggest such ‘ideas’ as these rule out players from across the world.

sometimes your night is our day time, and we want to play, too.

please keep discussion civil.

Any difference between EU & NA EoTM?

in WvW

Posted by: Aethercat.7906

Aethercat.7906

I mean is EU as aggressive & fight heavy as NA? Because lately there seems to be much more dominant forces of the top dog server(s) owning other sides in NA or is that due to no one liking the Desert Borderlands so they either come to EBG or EoTM?

I heard EU EoTM is more k-trainy.

No mercy/sympathy for those who have been ruining/deliberately breaking official rules for so long. 6 months or more of absolute hell and a seconds few video or minute is worth it and acceptable. This is the Stone Age we live in and that’s how things are done.

[Suggestions] Gemstore Items

It is funny comical but it’s getting to point where sparkly stuff over used. As much as I like some things like Dreamer bow any more and it would feel like a different joke of a game. More practical skins etc…

I hate SW with a passion. It’s BORING. For most of the time it’s an endless repeat of the same handful of quests in 4 different locations, unless you go map hopping to zones where the boss fight is imminent. Which unsurprisingly quite a lot of people do….

This so much.

I go to join SW map and it’s still level 1 nothing being done.. I wanna help but I’m by myself as map seems dead.. That or vinewrth just finish I go to swap maps and same situation. Very annoying but eventually map gets moving slowly. I hope portals still dropping.

[Suggestion] Black Lion Chest Minis

I wish we could swap the Super minis for other Super theme ones we don’t have because I got double ups and they sit there doing nothing.. Or even gift to a friend would be better than nothing.

[Suggest] More Poly Refractors + your theme?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aethercat.7906

Aethercat.7906

There are the orange and green Poly Undulating Refractors and black one. It would be nice to have a few more like basic white, blue and red for cool effects.

Also please post a pic of your character with green or orange poly Refractor I want to see what people come up with coz I see a lot of gold theme and it looks interesting.

Why do people hate EOTM?

Aethercat.7906

“you’re different from me, therefore I hate you”

pretty much

It seems like that opinion because I look at it and think if I play this game mode what am I losing/not gaining? I don’t understand maybe others views on it fully.

Dye/Weap/Armor Combo for a blue sylvari?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Aethercat.7906

Aethercat.7906

Other blue weapons are Zodiac and the blue version of Nightmare Court weapons but both are very expensive. Corrupted weapons are the cheapest blue ones though from what I’ve seen.

I too tried to make a blue sylvari but all colors clash too much..
Maybe I have to try again sometime coz it’s fun.

Remove Profession PVP daily ASAP

Aethercat.7906

could they not just go with a “daily win” daily so that people could play what they’re best at/enjoy the most?

This right here plz.

It would eliminate whole problem of same class match ups and that way ppl can play whatever they want.. Heck, I wouldn’t mind if it was win 3 games as any profession. So tired of seeing too many mesmers or rangers everywhere. Not fun.

What is with all the hate/dislike for this game mode? What’s negative about it and why is it having a bad impact on people?

If you go play that game mode what bad will happen that makes you hate it so much?

How to kill a Condi Necro?

in PvP

Posted by: Aethercat.7906

Aethercat.7906

What would be most effective against a condi Necro (typically 1v1)?

CC and hit & run tactics are universally effective against Necros. Other than that, it’s learning which skills are the heavy hitters you need to dodge and when to use your cleanses.

Longbow Rangers have a pretty good upper hand on Necros as well, since Necros have a hard time closing the gap. Doesn’t work quite as well in sPvP, but works fantastically in WvW.

I have tried on my ranger and the necro jumps into their deathshroud thing, closing the gap and I’ve tried kiting but already the conditions are swarming on me. I could give generosity sigil a go but their heal makes condis heal them more?

Have you tried Point Blank Shot or retreating? It’s very easy to keep a condition necro off of you with Ranger Longbow. If you can’t keep them out of range of Dark Path, try outrunning Dark Path (very possible from range) or dodging it. That is the only way they have to catch you.

Longbow Ranger is a condition (and most Power variants) bane because the Necro simply cannot reach the Ranger to do anything to them. Just Dark Path.

Hunter’s Shot is also rather useful, as it denies a number of skills. This can be handy after the Necro caught up to you (usually through your mistake) to give yourself a bit of breathing room or reposition for a better spot. Better still to hit them at longer range with it and use the full stealth duration.

EDIT: And of course the mods moved it to PvP, although we still don’t know if the OP is asking for PvP or WvW help. the responses differ some.

My retreat is the lightning reflexes skill thing and I try to get away from them but still hitting them because if I’m not then I’m the one with the health going down.

I mean for this as in roaming WvW but anywhere really if I come across one.

ehm, a condi necro?

Yeah the thing that spams fear, poison, a million stacks of bleed, freezes you and basically everything that hinders you and hits like a truck especially at 25 corruption stacks.
