Guild Wars 2

Crystal Reid.2481:

This comes up a lot so I’m going to jump in quickly since it’s a new post.

Tier systems for Raids come up a lot as a result of what Fractals did. I worked on the original Fractals team and a tiered system with increased difficulty scaling was always part of the original plan for that team. It was never a plan for Raids. They are, and should remain, the most difficult content in the game.

Accessibility in terms of difficulty is something we talk a lot about internally. We’ve made efforts to help players get in by delivering entry level encounters that ease you into the content (STK) and you’ll see more of that in the next release. You’ll still see encounters that live up to previous raid expectations for mid tier and final bosses. And if you think Matthias is a chump then we have something for you as well.

Accessibility in terms of “Hey, my 5 man Fractal group wants to try raids, but we can’t find 5 other players!” is also something we talk about. It’s just a much more difficult problem to solve.

I just hope Anet take only good feedback for this game! I like the new things with a lot of answer about Devs, but realy! this is for Raid / Fractal but count in as for WvW too! Take – Only – Good – Feedback! I’m scare too see a good compact of the game be kittened it up because many ppl didnt even try it (With my guild we put a lot of nowbies inside the first time and now their raiding easily… just know thing, u know..)
As a player i want see hard content, like Mythic on WoW or an Infusion Slot like Path of Exile (Infusion who give you some special power. AA deal 5% more damage, etc etc)
Try to take only the good from this community and not the all kitten storm.

The chance to proc needs to be removed for all spirits, and balanced from there. It’s a very stupid mechanic in this game.

Amen to that. Spirits won’t even need balancing if just the chance were removed due to the ICDs on most of them. I’d much rather see both the chance and ICDs removed then balance it from there.

Ye but without ICD all party member will get pretty overpowered..

Dadnir.5038:

What is the meaning of a chance to proc something when there is already an ICD?

You’re advertising this kind of design so you must have a reason. I’m really curious about the answer.

… After reading again this thread it appear that you are talking about skills and pet and not about traits… Really bad title for this thread.

I know there is an ICD, you see i split 2 CD 1 for normal cast, 1 for ICD! if u play ranger is easy to notice, but ok! my fault.
The “rework” is just for give the same power for this trait / skill compared to Skirmish / Marksman / Druid
And ye.. maybe i wrong the title! wanna put some ideas with the hope some Devs will read and take it in consideration

Is possible Power UP some trait only for PvE? Nature Spirit and Beastmastery are the worst choice atm in PVE, same for the Signet Ability! Can we something like :
Nature Spirit :
Spirit boon increase for every Spirit up
Healing Spirit no more give Regen but Healing every 3/4 sec + Proc to heal on hit (50%)
Sun Spirit Internal CD Lower to 2/3 from 5 , proc low to 50% from 75%
Stone Spirit Internal CD Lower to 5 from 10, Proc low to 50% from 75% and an aura every 30 sec to give Aegis (Maybe is too much this but i hope..)
Storm Spirit Rework Chance to Daze / stun on hit (50%), every 30 sec. On Active Mass Stun AoE 600/300 range Combo Field + Retaliation
Make all Spirit Walk or as Ranger Buff (Example : you take Nature spirit trait -> Ur spirit on bar will be a permanent buff on Ranger that will be split on Party Member, as Spotter for be clear)

Beast Mastery :
Buff all Pet, not only for damage! but somthing like :
All Minor trait buff several specific pet – Example
Cat – High damage for every boon shared, Low CD on his special attack
Bear – High Taunt spam for every enemy near , Give him passive Taunt Skill
Moa – Buffer aura , similar to revenant but only for 1 boon
etc etc Just for make some ppl take pet more seriously!
Give a Major trait that give at your a pet an armor on Beast Mastery (Please, dont create another specialization for this!) similar to druid on WoW Just for be cool

Signet Skill Rework :
Signet shared with pet,
Signet of hunt give proc to active Opening strike for you and pet
Signet of Wild change in base at your pet : Bear = Heal / Increase Armor, Cat = damage passive / 5x stack of opening strike, Moa = Random boon / 5 stack of might + other x5 man etc etc
Add Signet Heal and Signet ultimate
Signet Ultimate = Passive all ur signet passive gain x2 passive, Active =Regain endurance all signet off cd

Can we get a consume all for those? Is pointless put ppl to lose 30min for 5k :| Please, make this more easy

Another completely unnecessary nerf. Does anyone at Anet actually play hardcore Druid? Every nerf has been a kneejerk reaction from PvP without any thought to how it affects PvE or the content it was designed for: Raids. I’ve advocated over and over again that Anet needs to stop with trying to balance between three incredibly different game modes. It cannot be done, and let’s face it, you only care about eSports revenue anyway.

Nerfing baseline healing values is obviously going to make all off-heal builds become nonviable, namely Viper’s. Where is the build diversity here? Forcing people to run Magi’s gear to be an effective healer is shoehorning Druid into a Raid-only spec. I don’t think I need to go into details why this is a terrible design and direction.

If you are trying to cull the power creep HoT created (which was clearly going to happen from the get-go), then it needs to be across the board. Ranger has had huge problems that needed to be addressed for 3 years before it was “reinvented” into Druid. If you want to make vanilla classes viable again, Ranger was certainly the worst class the start with, since it flat out needs a rework to be viable in today’s meta. Not only does it have poor DPS options, pets are a function the majority of Ranger mains want to become optional or outright gone. The couple of buffs Ranger are forced to build are not enough to carve out any sort of definitive role, which is why the “Healer” band-aid worked at all.

We as a community need some justification and reasoning for drastic changes like this. The company’s transparency became a hard wall of PR when MO took over, and the players have definitely noticed. New management has finally started to deliver, but the relationship and trust still hasn’t been rebuilt almost a full year later.

Not for be a bad person! But Ranger as normal Condi have the best DPS atm, highter than other class (Not necro, ’cause his infinity minion) and as Zerker isnt bad too.. Just! We got an Healer class, play as Healer! Is pointless crying on this things (And to be honest, isnt hardcore run Condi Druid if you get a passive tree full of Outgoing healing!) just play and amen.
And for be Honest : If the Mesmer will stay like this, no one can be better than him on tanking / Buff group so.. in the future their (Anet) cant create a better Tank with other mechanics or Healer (for Druid.. because is OP as kitten on Raid content : heal, do damage, buff party! cmon… dont kittenin cry on kittenin OP class and i talk AS ranger main!)

Same here and i have 64 bit.

I buy like some minute ago 3 item from TP (Ulgoth Tail, Rotbeard Treasure and Symbol of the Inquest ). Normaly , when i have to do Collection, Salvage is the most common thing i do. The problem is that item dont be added on my collection, and i lose like 60g for this “no-sense” mistake! Cuz Salvage normaly Bind Item but no item from this collection. Can i have Back this item o add this item on my Collection?

it’s like 2 month i go perma lag in dungeon! On SW or Lion Arch i never lag, never! just inside dungeon and got perma kicked from the server. What can i do?

Ye, the problem was just one.. I trust Him, cuz he link me weapon (Ofc he use the code from GW 2 Wiki) and i send him 50% gold with mail. Just this

Today 1 guys steal my gold . What i have to do? I report him, but… he get banned or i recive back my gold?

No a Lot of Content on 2k15 = No Guild Wars 2 on 2k15 for me.
It’s sad to say, but.. guys.. 3 years, same kitten on PvE / PvP / WvW it’s realy BORING!

Hello everyone! I state that I am using Google translator is not being practical in writing English.
I wanted to ask what the community would like in this game.
I personally wanted to know from the Dev, or one of the upper floors, what they are working, if in January we will see a Raid or another Dungeon, Dungeon If the will as a path Aether (Perhaps the only instance of a certain level, fun and with a truly brilliant boss to fight.) or Arah, If you have ideas for revitalizing some classes and build, Utilities of Summon Pet or, if in the future we will have a truly competitive WvW to what it is now: Only do scores, leaving a void in those who practice it, If Grinding for sets or achi will be less effective during the new year so as not to have logged only player in the first five days of the new patch.
More or less, in a nutshell: We will have something to play in 2015 or is that all you have to offer GW2? It is not a controversy but .. I think it is proper to know what to expect in the future.
