Guild Wars 2

Hi! I started playing condi ranger as a main in PVE since last week. I’ve been practising the rotation to mimic qT’s one, but something’s wrong. I’m only reaching 30’5k while they reach 34k. I don’t have +5 infusions, but I use foods and exactly the same buffs, following exactly the same rotation as the video, and I cannot go further than that. Is there something I’m missing about this or is this difference normal?

Hi! So I’m leveling a condi ranger and I leveled a human one to 80. The problem is, I’ve heard that Sylvan Hound (Sylvari’s elite) is 1/1,5k DPS increase. So it might be worth to level a Sylvari, but I don’t have knowledge tomes and I hate how Sylvari look… So I don’t know. Is it worth it? Will it make a great difference?

Thanks in advance!

Hi! I leveled a condi rev and got him full ascended gear for raids and fractals. Now I face a problem, in high level fractals and open world I’ve got no ranged option. And that’s frustrating, because in some fractals or encounters in open world I just can’t do anything. I know that we have the hammer, but is it worth as condi? Should I get an ascended viper one? Or a berserker one? Or which other thing can I use? I saw the post about the blowgun, but it’s a bit… odd and I don’t exactly like it. And it’s damage its not that great. What do you use in ranged situations?

Maybe I should get an exotic berserker gear only for open world, but in fractals I won’t have ranged either way. Should I get an ascended berserker gear for fractals maybe?

Hi! I’ve been looking the Qt revenant build and I saw that it uses Berserker runes+Smoldering/Geomancy sigils. I was thinking about it and it makes sense, but wouldn’t Nightmare+Thorns and earth sigil work better? You boost bleeding and get another source for it while maintaining the burn/torment duration capped. And if Bleeding is not worth enough to change the berseker rune (Due to the damage lost), wouldn’t malice/bursting be better than geomancy? I understand that geomancy is a free DPS boost, but fire and torment are not capped, so wouldn’t a 10% more duration or 6% more condition damage stat be better? You’re not using almost any bleeding anyways. I don’t know, has someone tested it?

Hi! I’ve been playing for two years and I’ve decided that it’s time for me to settle on a profession. I’ve had over 15 lvl 80 characters fully geared only to end up deleting them. This means that even after 2 years, I have literally nothing compared to someone who focused more on playing than on finding the “perfect” profession.

The thing is, I always liked having a main because having a lot of characters overwhelms me. So I want to focus on a class to do “general” content, which means everything but raids (Because raids require more specfic roles).

As I’ve played every profession, I know them enough to decide what I like, but I can’t. And there’s going to be someone telling me to play what I like. But every profession has a flaw that makes me doubt about it and think about making another one.

My idea is having a profession suitable for open world, high level fractals, achievement hunting, etc. mainly. I have an elementalist, but I don’t like the low durability and the rotation makes my wrist hurt. I’d prefer a fun class with good survivability. That made me think about necromancer and revenant. In the case of necromancer, I hate the class’ theme and the minions (Though I love reaper’s shroud). In the case of the revenant, the only ranged weapon it has is awful when playing condi which annoys me.
I know that it is personal opinion, but, what do you think, guys? What could be the profession for “everything”?

Hi!
I’m going to hear a character with ascended Viper and I can’t decide between these two. I’d like to know which one is better for end game content like high level fractals and raids. Also, condi engineer is more expensive due to leather so, there’s that. Which one should I gear?

Hi guys! I’m creating this post because I leveled an elementalist to lvl 80 and geared her but I have some questions about my damage, because I feel that I don’t deal any.

I’m using Berserker’s exotic gear wirh ascended trinkets, scholar runes and sigil of force/air. My favourite weapon loadout is D/Wh and I learned qt’s build rotation. So I went to the training golem with Seaweed Salad and Toxic Sharpening Tool but I don’t know if my results are normal, I get ~7’5k DPS without buffs and ~25k DPS with all buffs. Are those great numbers?
I’ve done some fractals and it seems that I don’t do anything, I can die and the boss dies as fast as if I was dealing damage. I feel like I make no difference, and that makes me question about continuing playing ele because I may be bad at it

I know I should practise a lot more, and I really love D/Wh rotation, so, am I doing something wrong?

Hi!
I started playing an elementalist since the last week and I have a question, can I use the Lightning Hammer with staff ele or it will be a DPS loss? Because I love the hammer but hate the scepter build and I don’t like the staff fire camping rotation at all.

I’m not sure at all but iirc, it does.

Hi!
My guild started yesterday to do fractals and the first thing that I felt is the lack of damage that we have. This being said, I started to want to level a profession which could help to this problem. I don’t like the elementalist and I don’t really know how the things are after the expansion, so I ask.

Which is the best class for DPS nowadays?

Hi!
I just leveled a mesmer to lvl 80 and I was wondering about the gear stats.
I already bought exotic gear and I have Berserker’s weapons and rings, the other things are all Assassin’s. Is this good?

So, Is it worth to level a mesmer? I mean, I fear not being wanted because my damage or being totally useless in encounters. And I also fear not being able to solo HoT history due to the lack of damage.
If those things aren’t a problem for a mesmer, I’m probably creating one soon.

Hi!
The mesmer is my favorite class in terms of colours, abilities, theme and utilities (Portals/Blinks are just awesome). I know that in PVP they are really good and I love them, but, how is it in PVE?
I’ve read on a lot of pages that they deal no damage (But in old posts and I want to know how are they in HoT) and that’s what is frightening me about playing one and I want to know if their damage is really that bad, because if it’s not I’m creating one right now ^^

Hi!
I started to play this game 2 weeks ago and after 300+ hours I still can’t decide on a profession to main. I’ve already played and leveled all professions to at least level 20 and I have a level 80 guardian which I regret leveling because it bores me a lot in the end game.

I decided to ask for help because I’m really loving this game but this is starting to make it a bit boring and I don’t want so. Here’s what I usually like in a class:

-DPS: I love being the one who deals damage, sometimes I like to support a bit, but not to frequently. I’d like to know the profession with the most DPS actually.

-Having mechanics: I couldn’t stick with warrior/guardian because they don’t require (In my opinion) a lot of effort to play well. I’d like to master a profession wich needs skill because I like to feel the difference between me and other people who doesn’t know the class and I also like feeling the progression of learning the class.

-I need it to be viable in all game modes: Another thing that I didn’t like in the warrior was that in PVP it felt so weak. I just enter the fights and either die or kill. Maybe I’m just bad, but I didn’t really like it. It also has to be good in PVE (Fractals and dungeons) and if possible, good and fast exploring the map (I’m looking at you, guardian).

-I don’t like condis.

- I didn’t like the warrior (As I stated above), the guardian (I have one and I’m tired of it), the Ranger (I feel like the pet is a handicap instead of something that helps you) and the engineer (Don’t like the kit skins and I didn’t like the theme of the profession)

-And the last one, the looks. I know that in this game are a lot of options, but I need my character to look well to me. I usually like all kinds of armor but for weapons I prefer the sword-like ones and dual wielding things. Staffs are also cool.

Well, I think that that’s all. I hope you can help me to choose a class based on thoose facts ^^
And sorry if I made some mistakes, english is not my first languaje xD
