Guild Wars 2

I honestly don’t know what your talking about. Ive been running my mesmer in wvw for the past week and i have been doing very well. Ive won most of my 1v1’s except for a really good engi or a gunflame war im not expecting. Heck i even win some 1v2’s or 1v3’s against noobs.

But then again im running a beserkers build with scholar runes, GS/sword torch with blink decoy, portal and gravity well.

My autos hit for 2-4k depending on toughness. So id say its pretty good, you just have no power in your build because of the rabids gear really bringing it down. If you want ur sword autos to do more itd b better if u swapped to knights gear if u wanted to keep the toughness up.

If you want to have some more dmg you have to lose some survivability, thats just how it goes. (1800-2000 power is awful) For a reference my guy has around 2500power and 220 crit dmg. Quite the difference.

Also about your mindwreck hitting 5’s, i do a 4-2 dodge (generate clone) shatter on GS and insta kill ppl. Pretty much if they are zerk and they dont dodge they are dead. If they arnt zerk then it still does quite a hefty chunk of hp enough that they freak out.

This really bugs me too i wish they’d just remove the effect.

40-50 actually wasnt bad when my group did it but we had a mesmer and a necro stripping all the mobs boons so it was cake. But yeah 50-60 with last laugh was one of the fun ones, everything after is just annoying.

Uhm somethings not right here with this staff on AA animation. I thought it would look really cool on my necromancer but when i autoattack the scythe part is only halfway up it. It looks pretty silly.

If you have HoT you can get the glider skin for free. While wearing the glider you go and talk to a scout in verdent brink (i talked to the first one by the first wp) go through his scout thing, then a msg will pop up and you get ur glider.

That or im just on a really unlucky streak lol

Well usually when i would get a key it would not be in a starter areas so 15 and less (mayb the 25 and less too) On my last guy i did get 6-7 keys, and on a few alts it may b a little lower. So mayb the drop rate has just been reduced? Since some ppl seem to be getting them still.

Well, i have 7 characters with map completions atm, 5 others who are near 50%, plus this revenant at 65%, (with fully completed maps not skipping around) and ive always been rewarded keys about a third or fourth of the time. Has anyone been rewarded a key since hot? im jw

Is there any reason why you cannot get black lion keys from the end chest anymore after completing a map? I used to get mayb 6-7 keys from fully mapping our tyria on my alts , now with my revenant (65% map comp) i havnt gotton a single key. Did anet say anything abt getting rid of them?

100% agree, they say that fractals replace what dungeons used to be but…ive been doing so many and ive actually lost money and gotten nothing that makes them worth doing. Dungeons were fun even though they didnt change much i enjoyed trying to clear them faster and faster, it was satisfying.

I do think that the problem with dungeons/ fractals is the rewards. If the rewards were better for dungeons i really wouldnt mind them taking longer and everyone using different builds not just beserker. Its just if ur stuck in a bad pug for an hour like in AC or smthing and u get your 1 gold its not worth it as it is now.

A better reward system would be awesome, but maybe raids are the answer to this?

“My personal favorite is the author of the “Pu mesmers in WvW need a change” thread, complaining about PU condi then describing how his berserker ranger doesn’t die to dire PU condi because of all the cleanse he brings.”

I read that forum and it was stated that on his ranger he had traited for full condi removal and was at a standstill, so that pretty much counterteaming and still cant do enough dmg. Maybe its not pu thats the problem, but the dire stat set combined with pu, theres a reason Dires not in pvp…

Haha.. I have 6 characters with 70 ar so no. I had to spend the time to get that and i feel pretty accomplished about it, give the time and effort and you can also feel the same insted of having stuff given to you.

Not only that i dont want the really bad ppl like “ima rifle warrior” or hey ima power ranger with shortbow , or a guardian who doesnt use a single reflect because “i play how i want” in my group and they literally are doing nothing helpful to the party. I want experiecned fractal runners who know what their role is in the group and whos goal is to do the fractal quickly and smoothly. I DONT want people joining in to be carried the whole way through which without agony in place would occur way more.
