Guild Wars 2

Hi!

I was just watching some video’s on youtube and I wonder how people are hitting for 7-8k I know it’s in wvw but the hardest I can hit a upscaled noob for is about 5.5k (with blurred frenzy).

I run a shatterbuild. I got Berserker armor (with runes of the centaur). I got 51% critical chance and 98% critical damage, these are my base stats. So no buffs or food involved there. I do have superior sigil of perception and it does help to crit more often. Should I really use runes of divinity or runes of air in wvw to hit that hard? Because even though I thought 98% critical damage was much, it doesnt feel like much. Don’t get me wrong I do win fights and I do hit hard just not as hard as other people. I wonder how much harder I can hit and what i’m missing.

Thanks already

That sounds like a description of our guild, sadly enough we are on desolation

I’m not sure if I should post this here, but since “Reaper Of Grenth” is a human elite skill I thought it would be appropriate.

I never really even considered putting this skill on my bar since a couple of days ago. I play s/d Elementalist in WvW and I noticed this skill is really working well. But after trying it out a couple of times it seems to be lacking. I noticed that the chill and poison does not stack even if you stay close to the target, it just waits 3 seconds before it reapplies instead of stacking. I also noticed that you can’t use this skill while moving, which really feels kinda strange to me since it’s a snare and puts a hold on combat. Sometimes when someone is trying to run away from you, you have to make the decision should I stop to use “Reaper of Grenth” so I can snare them? Or should I just try to keep up. This feel a bit strange… Any ideas, comments or tips how to use this skill? Or should it just get a buff?

He kinda looks mad, but I really like the armor and the colours

Oh sorry to clear it out, I bought 2 items from dungeon vendors (with tokens) and 1 item from the cultural armorvendor in DR.

Clumsy me…

I ran into this annoying problem. I tend to buy stuff from traders I didn’t want while I was previewing armor/weapons, due to missclick… Okay I should pay attention of what I do, but then I started thinking about this entire concept..

Okay here we go: why can you buy “SOULBOUND” armor/weapons from traders that don’t fitt your class? What is the point of this? It would be nice to see this disabled, because only people who missclicked are the ones who buy it..

Yes this happend to me 3 times so far, buying heavy and medium armor for my “light armored” ele while previewing. And oh yeah it was dungeon armor…

I totally don’t agree that they should make armor accountwide because “dungeon-armor” has to be personal. You achieved it on “that” character.
I just hope they can disable the buying of items that are soulbound on purchase that don’t fit your class. And if they don’t want to do that, PLEASE ADD A CONFIRM BUTTON!

I agree on everything you said. My main is a lvl 80 ranger, and it’s so fun and easy to play, (not that it doesn’t require any skill) but they just got the tools. On my ranger I can solo 5 veterans without barely getting hit. The damage output is really high without doing much effort, and you can totally focus about kiting cc rather then doing dmg, since your autoattack mostly does greater dmg then your skills.

I also have a lvl 71 elementalist now. And I really like the class, they are great in teams but indeed, once you have more then one ele in the group the party tends to get rolled, just because ele’s get 1-hit. Even with full survivability you are still very squishy. And when you go full survival you basicly lose all your dps.

In dungeons I try to take it easy, and the dmg is pretty good. But if it comes to solo ele’s just suck. While I kite around 5 veterans on my ranger it’s impossible to do that on your ele. Mostly because they rely on AOE-groundplaced targeting instead of a strong autoattack. But even if you are great in doing all that and you try to kite mobs into your aoe the dmg is very little and everything goes superslow.

They should re-think the concept of elementalists because they are so squishy and the dmg is so low compared to other classes. It would be nice that the dmg would atleast match the other classes dmg if you spec DPS. And yeah, more survival in traits would be nice too.
