Guild Wars 2

I would hardly consider DH overpowered and too strong in this meta. Traps are easily mitigated by classes with lots of evades and invulnerabilities. Hell, on my ranger I just let my pet trigger the traps and that is that. There is a tradeoff to taking so many traps as well. A DH’s survivability goes to kitten once you take more than one trap.

The Longbow is strong yes, but the longbow is also slow. And the number 2 is so easy to dodge and is a long cast time. The Longbow has its tradeoffs, which is long cast times and the slowness of it.

They do have an economist and he says there’s no issue. You may want to take another look into why the systems are in place as they are right now.

I like mastery points.

There are 17 more tyria mastery points than required to max them all. So there are plenty of options
For HoT there are 22 more mastery points than required. Good luck.

DH is horrible in the current meta…. maybe soon even emerald players will learn this fact…. ^^

DH is not a problem, you just go through the traps with stab and you dodge, or pop an invul like endure pain.

It is certainly possible to reach diamond without abusing the system. Stop being mad at people for being better or more lucky than you.

So you want them to rebuild every map from the ground up to allow gliding without breaking the map and revealing all the “movie facade” unfinished areas?

Gliding in core Tyria needs its own thread the same way Mounts suggestions do ><

The community is toxic enough as it is, we don’t need more poison .

oohohohoh, this guy. +1

What PvP needs at its current state is a gazillion skills like Well of Corruption.

Maybe a new one as well that instead of boons it corrupts Auras as well…

If this ever happens I’ll stop playing Glint and auramancer.

Glass <<can take on>> Bruiser <<can take on>> Tank ||can take on>> Glass

I like a soft rock-paper-scissors approach myself. The weakness of the middle of the road very balanced guy is good defenders can take his hits while good attackers cut through him, but his attack still outclasses the defender’s and defense outstrips the attacker’s whose offensive capabilities assume he’s taking on a defender and vice versa.

The balanced guy needs to make sure he doesn’t engage a specialist on his terms but rather exploit the holes in the specialist’s understanding and capabilities while the onus is on the specialist to create a situation where his skills shine.

Guild Wars 2 has fewer skills and some different conditions for a class (thief lacks smokebomb for example that denies targeting in and out of the smokefield…maybe smokeskelk and thief can have this effect?) and other classes should be skill gated. I really like what they did with dragonhunter: create a bronzestomper where good players know how to properly counter them and the nature of the class limits good players who’d be better off switching to a higher skill and ultimately more rewarding class with the same roles.

Stop whining, it’s the internet. Stuff is going to get spoiled, if you’re so worried about getting x spoiled stay off the internet until you see/read it yourself. Punishing someone for “spoiling” something for you is ridiculous even if they are intentionally doing it, and you need to stop being so PC or stay off the internet. boohoo

Honestly, when i first did Shadow Behemoth i was left disappointed. Making it seem like something it isn’t. In no way does pressing 1 and standing in one spot is epic and far from awe inspiring. I reckon some of the average monsters you fight have the same amount of effort if not more to defeat it. Just because you need more people, doesn’t mean it’s amazing. And no, to me, Shadow Behemoth fails at what it’s supposed to be doing. Sorry for expecting more of a game we payed for, but people need to be stopped being babied around. It’s like giving out a medal for participating.

I fought the Golem Mark 2 thingy couple of nights ago. That one was actually fun.

I hope the next season we don’t get this.

I know I complain a lot, there was a time I tried to pour some positive feedback here, in fact I was enjoying HoT until Leagues. Losing progress is something incredibly rage inducing especially seeing players I walk all over in higher divisions then me.

I know I am not the best, I know I am not going to hit legendary. But I want something to show that I am not to be trifled with. I wanted to know where I stood in PvP as a whole. But exploits, people paying for carries, MMR Tankers, Premades vs Pugs and any sort of “status” I could obtain mean nothing. And the PvE crowed or new players wont know any difference.

In fact, my whole backing behind pvp was to find respect and hopefully a friend or two. I have mostly made enemies.

And the universal law of MMO doesn’t change and never will :
What beats me is OP and what I play is balanced or UP always, when I lose I go on the forum asking for nerfs

So your going to hide behind your signature and ignore that classes are broken?Where is Thief? Crying in Shadow Refuge because the DH stole his lunch money and made fun of him for liking anime.

Where is Chronobunker, Rev and Ele? On point in the cool kidz club hanging out and telling everyone else they aren’t invited. Literally its high school all over….

Thief is exactly where is supposed to be, nobody pity thieves except thieves themselves because remember that 3/4 of the professions can’t run a burst build in pvp because of thieves

This was the beginning, remember??
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=beHJkv5gaIU...the ele community surely does or do you want to ask top players the reason no other class other than thief was ever used as burst?

So the fact that thief “suffers” against tanky builds mean zero to me…if thieves would lose their apex predator of zerker status…things then would change

I appreciate your efforts.

I also find it pathetic that the devs are posting on Reddit instead of on the official forums where they belong.

Edited post to avoid future ban… if only the mods would migrate over to Reddit too…

Useful thread. Still a shame the official forums are no longer relevant, but thanks for posting these links/quotes.

Guild hall. Can duel there. Have fun.

Hoghwash, everyone knows that developers aren’t human, you just plug in the feeding tube and they’ll spew out code all day and all night. Maybe a little downtime for maintenance and cleaning like once a month.

I don’t know about where you live, but where I am is the Christmas/New Years time of the year. People tend to take time off for the Hollidays and less work gets done.

The restrictions on F2P accounts are in place to protect the economy from being overrun by RMT gold sellers and bots, and the general consensus seems to be that they are necessary and useful.

And yes, ANet expects F2P players to buy the game if they want to have the restrictions removed. It’s one of the reasons they haven’t added a bunch of microtransactions to the gem store targeting F2P accounts like other MMOs have.

Daily log in laurels, buy t6 mats with laurels, no pve required

It’s legendary. People have to WvW to get PvE stuff too.

Smooth Penguin.5294:

I’m only comparing the scenario that one group felt what they did was the right thing, when in reality, everyone despised them for it. A similar example would be the Spanish Inquisition. Or Christopher Columbus stealing the native American’s lands.

Edit – One more well known example would be the reason why Moses opposed the Pharaoh, and why he parted the Red Sea.

Are you really comparing historical events that involved death, suffering, and torture with the slight inconvenience of missing an event?

That is just…special.

Smooth Penguin.5294:

A lesson can be learned from this thread. The idea is similar to what happened in World War 2. One group of people felt what they were doing was in the right, while the majority of the world was against them. In the end, US won. Pun intended.

Now that I’ve read this, I feel ok for never again taking seriously anything you have to say.
