They need to nerf scrappers and eles for next season and not let pressure from crying pro league players who are unable to multi class make them op again.
I wouldn’t suggest trying to learn a brand new class from scratch mid way through the season and hope it will carry you up through the difficult divisions. You’ll likely end up just switching back to your main after you realize you can offer you team much more on a class you’re comfortable with.
Pretty sad that the best way to get legendary is to get an unfair advantage by getting into an organized premade and hope you can get easy wins against unorganized solo queuers, and then think you’re good.

I did 1 million damage on a power warrior but we still lost.
So high ranked players already get a huge advantage by being able to team up with their other really high rank buddies and beat some solo queuers. It’s the biggest advantage they could hope for no?
No! For the lazy high rank players who are to lazy to team up with other high ranks, the Anet sponsored Mmr will automatically put them together vs random solo querers even without their lazy bums even having to team up.
They should add an area where we can challenge each other to 1 v 1s in the PVP lobby.
I think Druids can beat necro when they have their celestial avatar ready to go and use that and the Sigil at good times, but if you don’t have your CA ready you can melt to a good necro before you go even get the chance to build up your CA.
It was much better before with the double glyphs you had 2 interrupts and 4 Condi clears while you were waiting for your CA to charge.

Simple fact is ranger is pretty weak again for the 2nd season in a row. It’s not the weakest, but may very well be second weakest to guardian. Last season it was second weakest to warrior. Anet seem to like to consistently keep engi and ele stronger than Druid, (maybe to please some of their favorite pro league players).
Mesmer was stronger than Druid yet they nerfed Druid harder than Mesmer. The seed nerf was completely unessasary and makes Druid much less dynamic without being able to take glyph of equality and tides to good effect.
A Druid played well can be effective but it has much bigger glaring weaknesses than engi or ele which good teams know how to take advantage of.
One thing you’re not going to see this season is any “Rangers op, nerf Rangers” threads but there are already several threads complaining about engis and eles, which engi and ele mains flock to to try and defend their OPness
Ahh right then. So according to engi mains on this thread the counter to scrapper is rev, necro, warrior, mes, power and Condi. Just about everything counters their scrapper according to them.
Going for the lord in a close game is essentially throwing the game now.
Ranger was about the 6th best class for all of season 2, it got to be about 2nd or 3rd best for about a month in unranked and now it’s about 6th best again for the whole of season 3.
I can’t believe it’s taken so long for this thread to be made even. By far a team with an ele has a huuuuge advantage over a team with no ele. Druid and Scrapper are not even comparable as the only support class on the team.
A team with an ele will allow its team to make mistakes and still win the mid fight comfortably by healing through the initial bursts. The ele itself is too tanky and most of the time not the best target to focus because of this. After the team with the ele wins the mid fight, they effectively control the map for the rest of the game and the other team has to work 10 X harder to pull off a win by spending the entire game trying to essentially avoid the ele.
My last 15 games I’ve been up against a team with an ele, or when they don’t have one someone quickly switches to one because they know how op they are. I try to convince someone on my team who knows how to play tempest to also switch to an ele but most of the time they don’t want to or don’t understand team compositions. They run into the mid and inevitably lose the mid fight because ele > no ele then we spend the rest of the game playing sides and running around like mad men. If we out play them by a lot maybe we’ll pick up a win.
I had 2 games in a row with the same 10 players on the same team. First game they have an ele, we don’t, we come just short of pulling the upset off 500-470 even though we outplayed them, they won because they controlled mid with the ele. The next game, someone on my team finally listens to me and switches to an ele and we crush them 500-119. This is the difference an ele makes right now.
They should do 50 / 50 like every other online gaming Mmr and separate a solo queue and a team queue. If people want any form of rigged games they should be able to go to the team queue with all their buddy’s.
Season 2 Mmr was the worst Mmr I’ve ever seen in the history of online gaming.
Why should a good player have to always carry a bunch of people who have no business playing in their tier?
Season 2 was terrible man, how can you honestly be defending it? Most games I watched on twitch were not even games they were 500-10 and just boring. Even the pro league streamers like Nos and Chaith said unranked Mmr was better than season 2.
Like I said, the Mmr imbalance is amplified by the fact that all the pro leaguers tend to group together and bash some random solo queuers. That’s why there should be a solo queue with the unranked Mmr and an actual team queue like there was in guildwars 1. If we could regularly get teams of 8 together in gw1, why can’t we get teams of 5 in gw2?
I still don’t see you answering my question. Why should a good player be paired with someone who is not at his/her skill level?
I already told you, because it’s basically a solo queue. If you don’t want to play with bad players, you should be asking for a separate team queue where you can team up with other good players and play against other organized teams, not ruin the only queue available, where the outcome is decided before the game even starts.
It shows how weak the guild wars devs are to let a few whiners and moaners dictate the Mmr system to their favour and make the worst Mmr system in the history of online gaming. DOTA and LOL would never let a few whiners ruin their game for them.

Even the pro league streamers like Nos and Chaith said unranked Mmr was better than season 2. I’m sure there are some experienced players who liked rising up so quickly so they support it selfishly because winning 10 games in a row is fun, but their opinion is not in the best interest of the game as a whole.

A Dragon Hunter meta would be absolutely horrible and ruin the game. I like them sucking.
Or you could just stop being a cheap bum, get a job and pay the $50 like every other normal person.
What changes would you make to this build now since they made defence so good for sustain? You can’t really drop strength, so would you drop discipline and lose your warriors sprint for the defensive sustain?
Would you even drop berserkers for defence?
