What is the name of the skill that throws up a barely visible barrier that knocks down the person entrapped when they try to move?

How does one get out of this circle trap other than waiting it out and how long does it last?

I actually agree that blocked players should not be on your team. They are blocked for a reason.

While I am sure that you block players for a good reason, can I ask why you don’t want to play on a team with them? I understand you may not want to see what they are typing, but you can’t see that from players that you block even when they are on your team (or can you? I wouldn’t know, I have never blocked anyone). In my opinion it is the same as playing with them in an open world meta event such as the ones in Heart of Thorns, you can’t see what they are typing and rightly so but they are still helping accomplish your shared goal which is the same with pvp matches.

If you block someone you can’t see what they’re typing…it’s a team pvp game in which communication is pretty important and this game doesn’t have a good ping feature. Drawing small white squiggles on minimap sometimes doesn’t cut it.

Why would you block best players from your own team? I don’t think the OP was opposed to going against people on blocked list, just not teamed…

I know I’ll get barked at by the TP hounds but, JS should have had mechanisms in place to curtail high volume trading from launch. Just having a storage capacity limit on the TP would have been enough. Forcing a player to take physical ownership of items purchased would have limited high volume trading.

Whats wrong with high volume trading?

I don’t know i thought you were playing a game, not some stock exchange simulator….

That’s what wrong with high volume trading in a nutshell.

I must be confused… the TP is not part of the game?

Maybe a high volume PvP game limiter too? Automatically logs you out and prevents you from playing another PvP match if you do too many in a row?

Or a HoT map limiter. Your health steadily decreases the longer you play PvE until you just die over and over and over. Only way to reset it is to log out for 6 hours?

I’m sorry i personally don’t consider playing the trading post as part of the game.

It’s a feature meant to facilitate the trades of goods. It’s not there for a select few people manipulate to the point the market destabilizes for normal consumption.

If you honestly find fun in the trading post and manipulating it, no one can stop you but honestly you may want to find another hobby.

I never really like that too. But quite honestly if you don’t like farming or paying real cash, the TP is really the only other way you could afford expensive items in this game.

Just like where I live the average pay is 4$ an hour but a tiny apartment could cost 700,000$. It seemed I could only hope the stocks I bought turned out good. Because no one will be able to afford an apartment where I live with just average pay.

Holy crap…where do you live that avg pay is $4 and apartments are 700k?

I don’t really care WHAT division my skill puts me in, I just want fun, even, engaging matches. I do not want to continue to steam roll teams or be steam rolled. These are NOT fun matches. I do not want to WAIT for the ladders to ‘balance out’ Winning 500-50 or losing 500-50 isn’t fun for anyone.

If PVP continues like this I’ll just walk and find another game. Over half of the casual pvp’ers in my guild have quit from being steam rolled. (they only made it to emerald last season). No they aren’t ESL material, but in reality, how many of us are? Do they not deserve fun engaging matches? Why do they have to be fodder for the people ‘climbing’ to their destination.

Then play unranked… That’s what it is forUse it. I don’t understand this mindset of “I MUST play competitive Ranked and be winning in order to play GW2”. There is a place for everyone that never goes away and still adds to reward tracks, just use it. If you absolutely must play Ranked, then team up. You’re in a guild, team up… A little coordination, you shouldn’t lose 20 in a row…

So, you’re having fun steam rolling other teams 500-50? In one of my games, my team was practically spawn camping the other team at their home node.

All they really have to do to fix this is add placement matches for new players, and should’ve seeded legendary players into Sapphire.

Exactly this. I’m just an average player, but I don’t deserve to get placed with Someone who is on their first ranked game ever….

I like the concept of the new match making system, but in execution I feel it could use some tweaking. I see a lot of forum posts surrounding people that may arguably belong in Amber getting zerod out by significantly better players. I would suggest that people who place in the previous season in diamond or legendary start off in Emerald.

This would give those players a more even set of matches as I’m sure they don’t have fun having land slide matches as much as the people being rolled over don’t enjoy being… Well rolled over.

I’m happy the game was more fast paced. I still feel the camera following the action was terri-bad. I don’t think this game is made for E-Sports…too difficult to follow with their current method of viewing the combat.

The only thing in this game you can’t do is high level fractals… Everything else is doable in exotics…

I don’t see where the grind is…

Raids as of now can be done with exotics, heck they can even be done with less than a full group…

Min maxers can eventually farm the mats needed for their ascended equipment….

PVP & Action Cam

I like the theory of action cam, and I try it out in pvp every now and then.

Is anyone out there able to successfully able to pvp using action cam?

Personally, my muscle memory isn’t there and I feel like I lose map awareness when i’m using it.

Hi all

Wondering if any of you have a recommendation for a pvp daredevil guide for sword dagger play. Combos when to use what skill and why etc

I’m getting kind of bored of staff and wanted something new. I’ve tried d/d condi with a lot of success in WvW but that got boring quickly

Back when I played during release (quit for 3yrs) upon death in pvp you could see the damage types and amount of damage it induced upon your death. Does that little box still exist in an option somewhere ??

I tried watching it yesterday. The announcers and camera following reminded me of a dad trying to film his sons soccer game and focusing on the parts of the field without the ball and some kid picking his nose or the hot mom in the bleachers on the other side of the field….

New gear stats question

Returning player after 2 years.

I’ve been reading up a lot and found many posts that refer to gear with a 4 stats spread. Marauders and viper gear?

Do those types of gear exist in pve environment in exotic rarity and how does one go about obtaining it??
