Some Rev skills to powerfull?

you can also invul a trebshot.. or warriors could heal themselves too if they used the stance heal. it has always been like this lol.

defiant stance is total crap for war lol

like pretty much any other healing skill compared to hs anyway, it’s not like wars don’t run anything outside it because they just don’t want to, i would be glad to get another viable heal giving you the same conquest survivability (Not more…even the same would be fine) as you have running hs just for the sake of being able to use something else once in a while

lypion and rom tried ds in esl

Lypion was dead and rom got back to hs…war is in a bad enough spot atm even while running the most powerful things you can get, let alone if you try to step out of meta

Looking at revenants facetanking trebshots and getting 8k heal bursts was actually pretty enlightening, that pretty much shows how much anet actually cares bout this game being skillbased….what’s the point of dodging treb like any pleb if you can just eat it and get rewarded?

Random passive procs apparently were not enough, now even evading an high damage burst is gonna be out of meta if you actually get more just facetanking it

ele burn vs guard burn kitten logic

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

Ok, I guess you don’t play ele because the Elementalist plays EXACTLY the same.

Omg i lolled so much at this…

Oh wait are you actually serious? Thought you were just joking

No offense man, but i guess the one who has no idea on how to play ele it’s actually you if you try to compare ele condispam with guardians that can only apply burning

Huge Decrease in Deaths From Burning

Elementalist’s “Ring of Fire” got nerfed.

If you are a player who just runs back and forth through it with wanton abandon, you will get a lot less rekt now, which is nice.

You should still start including cleanse in your builds though, it helps a lot.

you know it’s not like everyone can cleanse conditions 24/7 while just rotating skills like a no brain chinese bot like dd eles do

Some specs have low to no condi cleanse and things named cooldowns that are way longer than condition applying skills from many builds around

And rof istant burn is not even that bad, it’s still one of the best burning applying skills in the game anyway considering it’s aoe, 15 secs cd and fire field where dd monkeys can blast might for the win

Just let ppl set condition cleanse priority in pvp spec menu while being outside match (Exactly like traits and gear)…easy and simple

But that makes too much sense for anet to actually consider it…not gonna happpen cause all braindead condispammers are gonna qq too much for not being able to kill ppl just throwing random skills around as soon as other players start beign able to actively counter them

DD Ele is fine now, stop this QQ train please

The hilarious thing about all the complaints about ele sustain is that that hasn’t even changed in the last year and a half. Even before specialization patch, the ar/water/x ele had strong sustain, except hardly anyone called it the godmode broken build that it’s being called now.

What changed after the specialization change? the Ar/water/X cele cantrip eles got more damage. And they are shaving in that direction.

People are complaining for no good reason.

ele sustain is broken since way more than one year ago (Pretty much when celestial amulet got buffed from totally useless to meta)….people didn’t complain that much cause at that time celestial shoutbow and celestial engis could pretty much fight dd eles with fair chances, people started complaining after shoutbow and cele engi got nerfed while eles got buffed (Anet balance at its best) with trait patch making them godmode 1v1 (Cause the only 2 specs that were able to fight them 1v1 on point got nerfed) and able to 1v2 while having the second best mobility in game, tf support, broken downstate when paired with sa thief or mesmer portal and on and on and on…

Why does condition mesmer exist?

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

I feel like this is a proper question to ask. And before you attack me that I need to learn to play, I actually know the build and what it does.

My question is, since Anet is very heavy handed in nerfing builds that are bad for the game, why is Mesmer allowed to constantly stealth and just dodge all the while pumping out insane amounts of conditions that, even if you fully go for condition removal, are simply impossible to cleanse.

This is from a Ranger and Warrior perspective.

cause not everyone is able to play shatter dps i guess…

Archaon.9524

problem was dd sustain and they didn’t touch it pretty much

ofc rof was stupid and bugged af…but as i always said problem with ele is that they can survive pretty much forever, there are classes that can stack more burnings than pre “nerf” ele and they’re not even close to how braindead eles are…guess why? try to 1v2 forever with a condi engi or burn guard…see what happens, rof needed nerf mainly because it was totally bugged like getting insane stacks from nowhere while porting outside ring and so on paired with blinding ashes ofc (One example was thief getting burned AND blinded if stealing trough it…ending up with steal missing) Anyway rof now it’s even stronger is some situations…might nerf is fine but that’s not what makes eles so broken in conquest, but as usual anet has totally no clue on how to balance their game, not really much of a surprise after all

PvP tournament rewards

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

I like PvP, I can finish people and they can see my awesome finisher. You know what they can’t see? My mini llama. As a player who participated in tournaments in GW2 I would like to go back to getting finisher rewards rather than mini llama. After the first ToL people thought my llama finisher was the bomb. Now, all we get are miniatures. Here is what I suggest, reflect the llama miniature with the llama finisher. This means the llama in the llama finisher is the upgraded to show the mini llama you have, thus showing that you are esports to other PvP players.

Here would be a reward for first tournament
llama finisher – eventually all people who do tournaments and win a game would get one
miniature llama – yay useless llama.

afterward all useless llama can be upgraded and your finisher would reflect that.

let me being able to show all my 6 lamas u.u

like a frekin lamatrain behind me

come on…everyone already has lamas, it’s almost like dragon finisher

much wow such skillz, my grandma has that too along with a pretty rampant alzheimer’s disease… .____.

Displaying of mmr?

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

When you actually sit down and consider the demons that would come with displaying every player’s MMR, you may begin to agree that it shouldn’t be shown.

yeah carebears gonna get flamed

…and i see nothing wrong with it, bads are getting flamed in pretty much any competitive game (And way more than here)….that’s how things work

But that’s not the reason why mmr is hidden…it’s probably just because it’s gonna prove how bad matchmaking actually is, right now you can just feel it but being able to prove it would be way worse for anet

Stronghold PvP Feedback

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

Stronghold is not a moba (Let alone being even close to esports) it’s just a way to let pve guys do something if they can’t handle rotations and teamfights in conquest…they can still go for supply, kill minions, fight gates with guards and random ai crap like they’re used to do in zerg vs zerg and so on…nothing more nothing less, it’s as far as possible from being anyway near to a skillbased game mode

There’s a reason why noone in pvp gives a kitten to stronghold…it’s pretty much just a ball pool for pve heroes and the more people playing stronghold the less going svanir at start or 3v1ing eles on close

So, at the end of the day, pushing randoms into stronghold instead of conquest (Expec ranked) sounds like a nice deal to me…everyone wins but, for the love of god, don’t try to call it competitive

I do hope s/d becomes viable and i do hope d/d ele remains viable.

When was the last time any ele build was viable, not underpowered or not overpowered?

When was the last time there was a build for any class that was considered viable but not op? Pretty much every build that becomes meta gets called face roll op unless it is just used purely for it’s utility (theif stealth/mobility, Mesmer portal, resbot guardian).

Bunker guard had almost always been meta and never been op…just an example…

Your post is full of errors mate. Don’t worry, I’ll help you out.

For those who enjoy their classes even when you could not 1v4 in SPvP…

For those who keep going despite the general hated for the class due to imbalancing issues and become nothing more then a balanced class with good damage

Rest is fairly accurate.

I say DON’T NERF ELE.

Instead buff the non-eles

So when one of the builds become OP and eles cry on the forum, we can just say that we were just getting caught up to their OPness and they should just endure the pain as much as we did for them. Since they didn’t get a nerf, why should we.

I promise you, they will cry on the forum once they realized they no longer at the apex.

But I doubt any other class will outrun the OPness eles enjoyed during the life of this game

nah they just gonna reroll to something else…99% eles out there are fotm rerollers who need build to carry their badness, just jumping from ele to next op spec around

U need Axe/shield + gs. Following build:
http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vJAQNAR3ejMdQbI2FCWhAdIGKCKtLi+owGgHIAwSoFSBA-TpxHABEcQAuuMQAXAABeAAqs/AAHBAA

If u solely care about dealing with ele’s like 1v1, and not like in tpvp, then take armored attack, and berserker amulet.

Just auto auto auto auto super hard with axe, much preassure. Then when u have quite high adrenaline, pop frenzy (given u can burst) couple more autos till they dodge, then shield bash, evis, swap, whirlwind. All before quickness is over. And they’re screwed

lol are you even serious?
Using Gs /Axe is just bad in tpvp and a wasted slot unless you are in WvW/Hotjoin and pls stop trying to tell those people that you would handle eles with that build. With that build you can deal with bad eles and other than that if you can land some lucky eviscerate.
Zerk warriors work well against thief/mes comps and is terrible against sustained comps like duable/tripple ele and especally in a 1v1.

I take it u’ve not played gw2 yet, or just really bad.
Zerker is best to deal with them. If u can’t out dps their sustain it’s worthless, and they sure can out dps your heal sig. They don’t, unlike warr, have factors that make defensive stats redundant, such as invuln, in this case, the stances. Sure, mist form, but they don’t dps mid mist form, thus also making dps stats redundant.
Evis warr wasted slot? LOL! I suppose u crawled out of shoutbow and found yourself dominated, without such carry, that it’s all of a sudden ‘unviable’. Tell me then how for example Anastarcis , and Team Radioactive, who played/play two Evis warrs.

lmao
sorry after this I defintly can’t take you serious. Radioactive’s composition is just bad and they probably would lose against the >5 EU teams with their weird comp.
Tarcis killed one ele in his video with rampage after the second attempt and resetting the fight – the other ele died due to a lucky eviscerate.
WTS has shown how zerk warrior does not work against sustained duable ele comps.And everybody has already known that it’s just worse than a thief/mes comp before WTS even had started.

But I’m sure Rom who tried zerk warr against Kervs ele 24/7 is just worse than you and didn’t notice that zerk warrior wins against ele lol.
You will lose every node and every 1v1 against decent elementalists on a certain skillvl which is one of the reasons why Rom swapped to shoutbow – that he won’t lose in a 1v1, but can stalemate them in a 1v1. Zerk warrior is gimmick and I would never recommend anybody to play this in serious tournements etc unless eles get nerfed.
And if you consider mes/thief comps, potato axe warrior is indeed a wasted slot in comparison and I’ll never understand why you ever would bring a zerk warrior with roaming builds unless you can not play anything else besides that.

Saying that zerk warrior ushually would win against an ele is just bs and there’s actually nothing to discuss about.

Didn’t read all cuz at this point u’ve just showed yourself ignorant and inexperienced. I won 100-0 to Kervv on point 1v1, he on cele me evis when I met him the other day in pvp

We then have 2 possible options here:

- Kervv was both sleeping/drunk AND out of cds

- You’re better than rom

I’d definately bet on the first one

Meta battle troll ?

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

I wanted to check the necro celestial signet build for pvp and went to meta battle.

I had a good laugh as I saw “Meta² elemetalist d/d” then the usual “Meta” builds. Ele are so powerful right now that they had to make a Meta squared just for them.

I don’t know if it has been there for a long time, but it’s pretty relevent of the pvp state ^^

Sadly that’s far from being a troll…that’s basically the real sotg right now

Shout meta? rofl

Shoutbow = really weak version of dd ele for those crazy players who don’t want to join the faceroll party (And there’s really a few left who still tryhrd on war instead of rerolling godmode cele dd)

it’s pretty simple.

There’s nothing that war can do better than other classes both on shout that is way weaker than celestial ele and gs/hammer dps being worse than both mesmer and thief since you’re forced to being full melee and everyone can just cc you or just blindspam and it’s gg

There are many options than can do better than war atm

PvP Rank Compensation for Legacy Players!

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

I remember obtaining a Champ Hunter title almost 3 years ago and only got like 70k rank points from it (if even). After 3 years, I returned to complete my Champ Illusionist (only needed 20 wins) and found that I got over 40k rank points from these wins.

Now, if my calculations are correct, you get around 150x(~1700 pts/win) = 255,000 rank points for one Champ title from wins only This isn’t even counting the losses you might incur. Assuming 50% win/loss, you get an additional 150x(~700 pts/loss) = 105,000 rank points from losses

Thats a total of 255,000+105,000 = 360,000 rank points per champ title.

UPDATE

I have over 600 wins (in almost 1100 total matches) on my acct, most of which were played in arenas. However, I only have ~290k rank points despite having 2 champ titles and an aggregate total of a third.

ANET : Compensation for legacy players would be appreciated. I should be R80 with this PvP rewards system. People with less time spent and less wins are already R80.

Over 600 wins and 290k rank points you say uh?

i just hit r70 some days before 15 april 2014 patch when all r55+ instantly jumped to r80 when it was dumbed down from 8kk to 1kk and lost more than 2kk rank points and thousands of hours playtime…never got ANY compensation for having 3 times the rank points of new r80s

This screen was r69 just before last run to 70 (I should have that too somewhere), do you think i EVER got any reward for that? Nope…nothing, actually even got LESS chests (Only 10) than those who were lower rank cause they had more rank ups to 80 than me

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/April_2014_Feature_Pack

Dumbest patch ever in the neverending list of dumb patches, i don’t even know how many old players quit the game because of this bs

Anet had always been king at trolling veteran players…nothing new, if you expect to be rewarded for dedication in this pvp just quit already, that will never happen….do you know what i got from more than 20k total pvp matches on 3 accounts? Nothing.

This thread can be summed up sub old rank 30 players seeking compensation for nothing imo ( you were close to 70 as I was to 65 [rip grind?])

I was actually r70 at around 3.5kk when patch ruined everything, just can’t find r70 screen so i just got another one at r69 or smt, but i didn’t really grind, dunno you but i never went to rank farm arenas…i was actually reporting them (Like i’m still doing right now because it had always been an exploit) also asking multiple times to reward rank points for tpvp matches only

They never did it cause you know…that was the only way pve heroes could get their rank while being totally bad at the game

Funny thing is dat they still doing it even now that you can basically go from 1 to 80 in like 3 months of pvp rofl

so how do you kill ele ?

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

so how do you kill ele ?

they kill you 1v1
they chase you down and kill you
they survive 2v1

at least pre nerfed warriors can still be easily put down.

For myself, I’ve found that a couple of strategies have worked out.
1) Wait for them to mess up (wrong element) and DPS hard/ Condi Hard
2) Pour on the CC

Certain variations of Eles do take a while to kill, but that’s where you have to decide to continue to pursue or focus on point A,B, and C instead.

good eles don’t mess up lol

it’s like saying “Just wait for them being totally bad then kill them”

Good anything doesn’t mess up
The op was asking for help about a class not help against a good player.

Thats like saying “just skip what the op said because good players won’t die”

Now that we have gone full circle…. back on topic

lol you can kill scrub players with any spec vs any spec…asking for tips to fight nabs doesn’t make sense, unless you’re worse then them ofc

if you go for a class vs class (Or spec vs spec) topic you must consider all specs being played at their best ofc…i can kill scrub eles on gs/hammer war but that won’t happen vs any decent ele ofc so waiting for them to mess up is not a valid way to fight someone cause you can’t plan to only fight ppl who can’t play

Wait for them to stand still doing nothing then hb them to death lmao

So you ask for nerfs expecting to beat decent eles as easily as scrub eles?
I seriously doubt that anet will ever grant your wish, you will spend a looooong time here on the forum begging for nerfs…

There’s a tiny difference between being able to fight them and having totally no chances vs any average (Not good…just average) d/d ele player, atm there’s basically nothing that can kill an average dd ele while contesting point in a decent amount of time even on celestial nec that is supposed to counter it (And it doesn’t anyway, if he really sux he would just disengage and be fine anyway) still takes so much that going 1v1 is basically not worth the time spent…it’s like 1v1ing a bunker guard on his point with the difference that bunker guard will never be able to kill anything (And gonna be decapped by an engi for example) while ele can basically kill anyone 1v1 if he tries to stand on point and contest it

Plot twist: after waiting 28 minutes in queue you finally get into a match with 2 free-to-play players on your team both of whom just reached their rank 20. You are playing against a tryhard Celerius premade on TS. Your team mates start the match by going for both Svanir and Chieftain and then get destroyed 2v1 by Posi.

GW2 EU PvP in a nutshell.

Then you find yourself 1v3 mid tryharding like if there’s no tomorrow, sides lost and minimap full of “downed ally” icons everywhere after you stupidly thought that 2 teamates should have been enough to kill one guy on close (Ending up with a d\d ele facerolling 2 guys on close + another one passing nearby who was probably running away from svanir or smt)

And after all of this an “Help close” suddenly appears in teamchat

at least pre nerfed warriors can still be easily put down.

For myself, I’ve found that a couple of strategies have worked out.
1) Wait for them to mess up (wrong element) and DPS hard/ Condi Hard
2) Pour on the CC

Certain variations of Eles do take a while to kill, but that’s where you have to decide to continue to pursue or focus on point A,B, and C instead.

good eles don’t mess up lol

it’s like saying “Just wait for them being totally bad then kill them”

Good anything doesn’t mess up
The op was asking for help about a class not help against a good player.

Thats like saying “just skip what the op said because good players won’t die”

Now that we have gone full circle…. back on topic

lol you can kill scrub players with any spec vs any spec…asking for tips to fight nabs doesn’t make sense, unless you’re worse then them ofc

if you go for a class vs class (Or spec vs spec) topic you must consider all specs being played at their best ofc…i can kill scrub eles on gs/hammer war but that won’t happen vs any decent ele ofc so waiting for them to mess up is not a valid way to fight someone cause you can’t plan to only fight ppl who can’t play

Wait for them to stand still doing nothing then hb them to death lmao

Least Raged on Professions?

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

Was going through the mesmer forum – there’s a lively debate on PU (of course). It’s often said that people rage whenever they lose, but this isn’t always true.

So here are my least raged on professions – when if I lose, I simply go “Ok yeah, they outplayed me” or “They direct countered my build”.

1. Necros (hands down least raged on I think). Possible exceptions: Lich, MM
2. Guardian (pretty honest play). Possible exception: Insta burn bombs these days

What about you? Which professions do you not feel bad about losing to?

when i go burn guard for trolling ppl there is NO match where i don’t get rage and tears

but they kinda right tho since burn guardian is a totally 0 skill spec exploiting nonsense burning…i can’t really blame them, i sometimes feel bad looking at shatter mesmers running around with 8 stacks of burning while they can’t do absolutely nothing to save themselves

I usually agree with people who say i’m running a reterded spec…unless they’re celestial eles..eles have no right to qq bout anything

Since you only balance PvP every 6 months...

You guys are missing the point that anet needs builds for ppl with less skill so they can do even good without knowing anything about the game, that keeps them playing ^^.

true dat…sadly

And this is what makes gw2 not even near to be an esport game

Names giving you an Advantage

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

For example,
A Ranger named Blue Lord and also names his/her pet Blue Lord.
A Mesmer named Illusionary Mage/Duelist etc.

With different accents of course(since many of these are probably already taken)

Are names that give you an advantage fair in PvP?

If your opponents have some serious brain damage they would probably give you some sort of advantage i guess…

Since you only balance PvP every 6 months…and also fail at doing it

Fixed title for you

ESL devs can balance this game (Only in esl cups ofc) better…and they don’t even play it, but you know last time esl guy was asking for balance tips in twitch chat (And pms) and there were WAY more good ideas there than in all ready ups together

But you know anet is probably so aware of real pvp problems they don’t even need to ask…or even answer lmao

Ummm banners for warriors?

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

If you trait for a banner is there nothing but a regen? No increased radius? No reduced cool down? Literally nothing for a banner if you trait for it except regen?

Well can we at least add this to the things that need looked at as well as vamp rune and d/d ele. Please make this 1 of the top things you fix since its simply making 600 radius to 900 and a 20% Cool down reduction.

is gonna be worthless anyway until shout war gets a shout with stability, going for balanced stance or dolyak signet makes basically no sense…also remember that it’s not a guaranteed rez too but more like a downed healing skill

Obvious solution would be going ele ofc…there’s no point playing any war spec in pvp atm anyway, there is no conquest role where warrior is gonna be first choice, just reroll or wait for some balance…no reason to tryhard anymore

Toxic players. When to report?

in PvP

Posted by: Archaon.9524

Archaon.9524

I always insult them back 2 times harder because I am not wise at all, even when it’s not addressed to me, even if I am perfectly aware “they started it first” is childish.
I also report/block. I am sure they report me back, and I never got banned for my overreactions, so I am also sure the report system is just useless.
Anyone who can’t take his part of a defeat and prefer to insult his team is just the first guilty of the failure he want to reject : he played against his own team and out of it the whole time and finally prove it at the end.

A certain neceromancer streamer on EU is prove that the report system doesn’t work.

Only one? Prince Vingador, Leeto…

Leeto doesn’t report ppl as much as vingador tho
