Can we put an entry in about stacking? I’ll write one when my plane lands.
Would do it all day every day.

Agreed, that would be an awesome change. World events are killing my soul.
Well, they could always make dragonite ore drop from silver mobs. I’d totally clear the dungeon.

Since we have this handy forum I might as well dump some of the things that I’m sure a lot of us were already thinking, which is that holy kitten, this game promotes the hell out of just stacking TANK and defensive boons and TANKING through everything.
This is fine in some areas but it also creates problems in others because:
The less you contribute, the easier it is:
- Make the aggro system more transparent: the more health/armor/healing you have, the more aggro you take. The more damage you deal, the less aggro you incur.
- Give mobs in general more high-damage, avoidable attacks (swipes for 50k per, etc.).
Explanation: Right now, tank/healing gear are pretty much the only viable gear sets because the game heavily favors just tanking everything as hard as you can and not dodging any shots. reducing the frequency of these attacks and replacing them with slower, bigger hits that cant be tanked, but easily avoided, means that offensive stats and player skill actually make a difference. The more straightforward aggro mechanics means that these attacks will primarily be directed at the tankier players. This will have the effect of forcing tank players to pull their weight more and deal more damage instead of watching how other players are doing all the work, and also incentivize players to balance their stats a bit more.
Taking ten minutes to kill a boss and not dodging at all is lame.
(example in the video below)
More emphasis on defensive stats:
- Rework the effectiveness of certain stats. For example, vitality, toughness and healing-power could be weaker.
Explanation: Most fairly self-explanatory. Encouraging build diversity by making it so that straight tank/healing and bearbow-power isn’t always the best option for every single fight. as you can see in the following video, tank/healing gear allows you to faceroll trough dungeons and take away the benefit of dodge and player skill. allowing tanky groups to turn their monitor off and still successfully finish a dungeon.
video example:

tl:dr.
tank/healing gear allows to faceroll trough dungeons without any downsides.
it also removes core mechanics of the game such as boss mechanics and the key of the games combat system, dodge.
this shouldnt be possible in what we call “endgame content”
we need to encourage the use of offensive stats and individual playerskill.
@mods: dont you have anything else to do beside deleting serious topics?
i posted my feedback in a respectful, constructive manner.
stop deleting it.

Yep, when you’re talking in terms of “viable,” that’s what you get. gg

wow seriously, spider queen example again?
corner is mostly for speedruns, pugs get the wrong idea of surefire win.
corner is mostly for mini-spiders not really the queen. (we pull everything including the queen in 1 go, not like some scrub that pulls in waves – pugs with the wrong idea).
all melee queen (no stack) = aoe isnt even a problem.
stacking = harder to dodge the weakness debuff due to the animation harder to see, if you don’t dodge when stacking you’re a bad player.
not stacking, aoe problem? you can WALK out of the way – occasionally dodging it. (have you people even picked up an action game? not those “a 5 year old can finish it” games like god of war or some crap)
real dungeon veterans can clear these dungeons half awake/drunk/high/maybe all at the same time with or without stacking. we stack because it’s faster; success is a given.
Agree with few posts above, gw2 dungeons are…..tiny in terms of scale and not quite as good as gw1.
just to add, AC in gw2 is really really tiny with a pathetic number of chambers compared to gw1.
gw2 dungeons have no character. guild puzzles are better maps for dungeons than the dungeons themselves.

Guardians in full Cleric’s gear. Any guardian that is in my group and does not ping full cleric’s gear gets kicked.
Warrior in full PVT running, dolyak sig, endure pain + Rifle as main weapon.
The tanking + vul + bleeding condition making him an ideal member of any fractal party.
I usually ask warriors to ping their gear, since they are so critical to any party, if not FULL PVT rifle that is auto kick.
There’s no zerker problem. Repeat after me.
Give more reason to kick people with low achievement in a pug.
Bad idea.
This would not address the zerker problem, while encouraging more elitist behaviour. Casuals would be even more discriminated against, and being blamed and hated for wiping and losing the bonus.
Seeing how MF was removed, this is not going to happen.
Where did the OP stated it was meant to adress the “zerk problem” in any shape or form?
Also:
There is no zerk problem.

If you want random stuff to happen , stop grouping with
Guildies . You wont get anything special from them .
Pugs are better just to make it funnier . The other
Day i joined a party and.the guy who started the
Dungeon knew that we wont kick him so he removed
All his armor atacked lupicus.and started tu run
In circles . The players make those boring
Dungeons a fun experience !

This thread makes a little bit inside me commit suicide.
Just don’t bring condition builds
that is all.

Is this real hard?
Is this just fantasy?
Caught in a dungeon
No escape from the final boss
Open your eyes
Look up to the skies and see
I’m just a noob boy
I need no sympathy
Because I easily die, easily cry
All the time, always downed
How the spiders spawn
Doesn’t really matter to me, to me
Forums, just died again
Saw the shake from the head
Didn’t dodge now I’m dead
Forums, fight had just begun
But now I’ve gone and started a thread away
Forums, oh
Why this path makes me cry
If I don’t complain again this time tomorrow
Carry on, carry on
As if nothing really matters
Too late, my time has come
Sends shivers down my spine
Body’s aching all the time
Goodbye elitists, I’ve got to go
Gotta leave you all behind
And face the truth
Forums, oh
I don’t want to die
I sometimes wish I’d never tried that path at all
I see a big silhouette of a tree
Guardian, guardian
Will you do the reflection?
Meleeing and dodging, very, very frightening to me

Magnifico!
But I’m just a magic find user nobody loves me
He’s just a magic find user with a magic find mentality
Spare him his life from this monstrosity
Easy come, easy go, will you let me go?
Fyonna!
No, we will not let you go
(Let him go!) Fyonna! We will not let you go
(Let him go!) Fyonna! We will not let you go
(Let me go!) Will not let you go, let me go, never
Never let you go, let me go
Never let me go, oh
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Oh dear forums, dear forums
Dear forums, let me go
The tree has a spider put aside for me
For me, for me
So you think you can scare me
And kill me in the blink of an eye?
So you think you can overwhelm me
And leave me to die?
Oh tree, can’t do this to me baby
Just gotta get out
Just gotta get right outta here
Nothing really matters
All the forums can see
Nothing really matters
Nothing really matters to me

I guess it’s time to rev up that guardian, again.
I’ve rolled one just in case, lmao. Crazy how we have the same idea.
