Hi,
thanks for your feedback, appreciated.
Good to know traveler runes work in RF.
Im using Marauder for armour, zerker for weapons and a mix of zerker / marauder trinkets.
Guess i need to work on my movement/positioning skills if i want to stick with Strength runes, hear what you are saying, hitting like a truck whilst not being able to stick to a foe is not optimal.
If that doesn’t work out, i’ll give traveler runes a go, loosing +power but with the added bonus of being able to ditch signet of the locust and equip a more useful slot.

Hi there,
I’m new to necro and want to focus on playing power reaper in wvwvw – both roaming and zerging.
I’ve slotted signet of the locust for the speed buff and use Strenght Runes at the moment. When i go into reaper form i slow down and get kited quite easily since signet of the locust doesn’t seem to work whilst in reaper form.
Personally I don’t like the idea of slotting signet of the locust just for the speed increase however fear of giving up too much power from Strenght runes if i swap them for traveler.
Anyone know if:
1. Rune of the Traveler work in shroud form?
2. it is worth it to trade Strenghts runes for Traveler runes on a reaper power build?
3. Any other ways or tricks to keep up the pace in reaper form?
thanks!
Happy to report my issue has been solved after simply reinstalling the game client.
Good luck to you both, hope your issues get solved soon as well!
New update:
After logging a ticket i received fast and excellent support from Anet, so kudos there.
They helped me with pinpointing the issue so we tried a few different steps and from the looks of it, my issue appears to be related to the use of sweetfx / reshade.
I am currently removing all gw2 and sweetfx / reshade files + downloading gw2 client for a fresh install + updated all relevant drivers (could have done that in the 1st place, however was hoping for an easy/fast fix and forgot i installed sweet fx / reshade recently)
Will report back if this solved my issue in case any other player experiences the same issue in combination with sweetfx/reshade.
Alright, perhaps it is a similar issue, for me it happens after a successful login > clicking Launch launches the game as friends do see me online however the screen just disappears leaving me looking at my desktop. Don’t have any gw2 icon to click on to bring the screen up.
I’ve submitted a support ticket, will post a solution once the issue is solved so hopefully you can use it too.
Hi there,
I have an issue where I am unable to see my GW2 screen once I’ve successfully logged on. I’ve searched the forum however have not come across a similar issue and / or solution so hoping to find some help.
1. I start the game client
2. I enter my credentials > press login > successfully logged in message appears
3. I press Launch
4. The screen disappears, I am staring at my desktop
- Im using the 64bit Client
- Im starting the game client with administrator rights
- I’ve tried using normal start as well as start in windows 8 compatibility mode
- I’m running W10
- The issue started after an automatic W10 update
- I’ve already de-installed the automatic W10 update with no effect
- All my drivers are up-to-date
- I can see the GW2 client running in Taskmanager
- When I try to re-launch the game client I get the message that GW2 is already running
Anyone has any idea how to fix this?
Thank you kindly in advance
Imo there are 3 “groups” if you will in wvwvw:
1. Zergs
2. Guilds
3. Roamers / individuals
Non of these groups should be punished for introducing buffs and/or nerfs for their respective choice of gameplay in wvwvw or timezone.
The only way to find balance therefore is between the number of people online at any given time between the 3 opposing servers.
Therefore the only way to balance imo would be to buff towers/camp/structures/Guards etc. based on increasing or decreasing % depending on the number of people online in a wvwvw match versus the other team at regular intervals, let’s say 5 min for the sake of argument.
An example where this went wrong was with the introduction of dragon banners as this does not benefits all “groups”

Is merging low population servers technically possible?
What would the Impact & costs be to change this to satisfy an unknown # players?
What would the impact be to pvx players?
Is merging low population servers commercially interesting to Anet?
I can think of more questions but if you can answer these, you should work for Anet
Hi there,
Thank you all for the interesting and useful feedback. Much appreciated and has given me a push in the right direction. Got enough info to adjust my current build / setup.
Again, thank you very much
Thank you for the suggestion, much appreciated.
I knew UF was nerfed but still feel it’s pretty decent.
Will try your setup tonight, just one question though, how do you manage to stay alive with 20k health? Obvious answer would be skill ofc however, i might increase my health a bit more to suit my comfort / skill level so to speak.
cheers
Hi there,
I’ve been running wvwvw since launch and basically ran with gear and weapons that felt most naturally to me. Sword & Shield + Hammer.
I call it the “Jack of all Trades” build as i use it for zerg fighting as well as roaming and was hoping to get some tips and pointers to improve my build.
The build can be found here:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fJMQNAseSjMdU4ZVIOewJaAlgCdo/BlwxGIAUOFZBA-TVCEABls/ATKDM4IAIxhAoJleKq+DgKBbTfAAvAgAAIA3sNbzbGwNv5Nv5NvZpAYSZE-w
Depending on the situation, i swap out signet of stamina for either Bull’s charge (1 vs 1) or Stomp (group heavy / blast finisher) and signet of rage for Battle Standard.
I’m not looking for a new weapon set such as swapping shield for warhorn or anything like that.
My question is if i should drop some stats or perhaps increase some stats and if my trait allocation still makes sense after all the warrior changes.
Thank you in advance
Resetting devalues high rank. I stand by that it should have a high cost, and only be able to be done in a city. It’s not needed to win, it’s a perk for people who put in the time, it shouldn’t be something that anyone can spec into the best stuff on a whim. Making it easy to respec would hurt WVW by removing the reason to be high rank, and keep WVWing.
It is not a perk, we have a new achievement system for that but that’s a different story.
Also, the Mastery traits are quite useful to say the least and give you an advantage over players that don’t.
And last of all, resetting the ability points would not devalue higher ranked players:
Player A has accumulated 30 ability points and Player A can re-spend 30 ability points
Player B has accumulated 95 ability points and Player B can re-spend 95 ability points
Quoting Victory here cause he has a good point : “Should be account bound, and resettable once a week- ie at reset for the match up for the week, u get to assign your points for that week.”
There you go, now let’s make it happen ^^

oooops wait… we cannot.
Dear Anet,
Please allow us to reset our WvWvW ability points on the fly.
If we are able to specc for different builds, why force us to spent ability points without the freedom to change these on the fly?e.g: If i feel like playing a tower defense game, i don’t need to be specced for Ram Mastery, i would like to be able to reset my points and respec into Cannon Mastery.
e.g: If i want to roam with friends & cap supply camps, I do not need to be specced for Build Master, i would like to be able to respec to Guard Killer.
Furthermore, if you are new to WvWvW, i can imagine players speccing in random Mastery traits without knowing you cannot undo the points you spend.
Would be great to see this implemented.

TLDR:
Dear Anet: Please make this game even more casual than it already is.
You are missing the point.
It would not make WvWvW more casual, it’s about increased flexibility, increased strategy options for those that see it as such and the freedom to play how you want to play without being forced into a role and / or action for the remainder of the league.
Many players use different builds, traits, different armour and weapon sets and can change these which is a good thing. It contributes to various playstyles. Regardless of wether you do so for peronal benefit, guild benefit, experimenting etc. etc.
It would be logical to apply those principles to WvWvW ability points as well.
Agree with previous posters though in contrary to my opening post, no need to be able to change those points on the fly, just add the option to change accumulated points at an NPC either on each map or LA for a specific fee for all i care.
Why would that have to be done in a city? Why not simply use a trainer in EB or Borderlands? small fee would be fine, same as changing your build.

Haven t read up in a while but what about Banner Regen warriors? Useful at the moment for zerging?
What a joke again.
The fun of wvwvw is being sucked out of us. Heavily outnumbered in a T16 vs T3 match, most people just give up now and we get steamrolled even more. Don’t even start with that bullkitten that you learn form these match ups. Anet wvwvw team is seriously slacking and apparently not paying attention to a long long list of complaints. How long does this thread has to become before Anet realizes that these match ups are not working. Utter crap.
I would love to take the credit but it was really the work of many other folks to get this live.
I applaud any effort to make wvwvw better, however, please make sure next week we wont see an abomination such as GH T7 vs Riverside (T4) vs Piken (T3)
Reset just happened and we currently have 7 supply camps left to defend on all 4 maps and 3 towers. No doubt those 3towers will be gone by the time I’ve typed this little wall of text.
thank you very much kind sir
You can still learn from being steamrolled; you’ll just have to change tactics in order to compensate for your weaknesses. Although, I suppose the coverage gaps would be something a bit difficult to compensate for.
Just try your best and don’t give up; you’ll be respected for that.
appreciate your positivity and of course, we will do our best. But most of us on any server no matter which tier you plays has had their fair share of stomping. Outmanned due to players giving up which will most likely happend after 2ish days and or being stomped will therefore not teach us anything.
ah well, hammer high, high five, back to battle ^^ gl whatever tier you are fighting!
You just have to get a concentrated effort for your server’s community to persevere. Just play to have fun, not necessarily to win, and you’ll be better off for it. Although winning is fun, I just like to think of it as a bonus, lol.
oh i am having fun, reset just happened and we now have 3 supply camps left to defend or whatever it is we will be able to do there.
T7 vs T4 vs T3 is indeed not fun

Not happy at all with this new match up
GH T7 vs Piken T3 vs Riverside T4wont be learning much this match up anet, getting stomped teaches me to hate this change to wvwvw
meh
arborstone gonna get crushed good job Anet
Its matchups like that one that are going to crush what little WvW exists on lower ranked servers. People will either move or quit.
Indeed, the variation / deveation is just too wide. Anet might as well remove the fee for transferring to higher tier server since it does apparently not matter anymore in which tier you play. Hope they reduce the variation within a maximum of 1 tier.

I’m a few weeks into the game now and playing a ranger, currently at lvl 74 and as many of you starting to wonder about lvl 80 exotic gear & weapons, where to get them, which stats I should look for and so forth.
I believe many other players also enjoy the diverse set of activities that GW2 lets us play and also recognize the fact that different engagements such as a dungeon run, mainstream PvE activities, WvWvW etc. demands a flexible approach in the way we should be able to equip ourselves.
Jumping into to WvWvW, I would like to be able to select my Longbow & Shortbow, trait power/crit build on the fly, put on gear I collected specifically for WvWvW.
Jumping into PvE content, I would like to be able to select my Shortbow & Axe/Horn set-up and trait condition duration & damage, put on gear I collected specifically for PvE.
Jumping into a dungeon run, I would like to be able to select my 2H Sword & Axe/Horn set-up and trait into a supportive build, put on gear I collected specifically for Dungeon runs.
The point I am trying to make is that I would like to have the ability to select an armor set, trait distribution and weapon sets based on a template I can create for myself which would support my diverse playstyle by managing this through the use of simple templates.
This could be done through the Hero Panel for example where up to 5 templates could be created by us, the player, however still paying for account respect costs whenever you switch. Items can reside in your bag or in the bank, once you select template A for example, all relevant pre-selected items are worn automatically and traits would be re-distributed accordingly. Weapon sets would be swapped regardless of whether the weapons are in your bag or in the bank.
Simplifying the way in which we choose to play would enhance my experience and lower my barrier for enjoying all content GW2 has to offer without having to go through a multitude of activities before I can enjoy a new activity.
Hopefully the above makes sense and will be considered for implementation

Im on Far Shiverpeaks server, Map Mount Maelstrom, Area The Stychs where the skill point is not visible / not working
Thanks in advance for fixing
