Guild Wars 2

Don’t worry! Anet will make you forget this bug with temporary content or a nerf on engineer for all I know.

That was a lovely story. I experienced the same thing 4 years ago. We are still married today

I reroll a 100b Hero, complain that CoF is too hard and that SPvP is broken.

Be lucky, at least you got one of them.

I bought 2 sets and got Sky Dye and Natural Dye… It is utterly frustrating to spend money on dye only to get dyes you already own that are worthless.

You probably mean http://gw2lfg.com/

No gw2lfg.net

.net is much better.

You can filter those ‘LFX ZERK WARIORZ1!11 PLZ DUNT SUC OR WE KIK U’ adds quite easily.

I would like to know the build if possible. I’ve tried to find it but I mostly get WvW builds.

I want a SPvP build since I find WvW to be a massive musical Zergwars. (im on JQ)

Thanks!

I don’t see it as a bad thing actually. Enh shammy was my favorite class in WoW.

oh nice!

They may be usefull in pve now!

That build sounds quite evil. I give this one a try and give my opinion after in done testing

Yay for engineer!

I have been using Galador’s build recently and I must admit, it is quite promising.

I made 1 small modification. In fire arms I am using VI and VII, not III and VI. I do not feel the need of III since I want to stay in my turret farm. I preffer to burn my enemies for a longer time then being faster inside my tiny turret farm.

Gangstamech’s build is pretty awesome itself. However, It is a lot more mobile and tanky than Galador’s.

Gangstamech’s build will assure that you run fast at all times, can take on multiple targets no problem and that you can take a pimp slap without problem, thanks to the Tool Kit, the Shield’s abilities and XII in Firearms.

Galador’s is a lot more stationary. You set your farm, trap your pray in with your net turret and belt tool then melt them with fire turret, torch, confusion, poison and my favorite, the awesome rocket turret. With this build, I believe that it is important to use the turret traits because there is always that 100b hero or that ele who will crush your turrets to bits quickly. You cannot run fast, without them you’re most likely dead.

Deployable turrets has been bugged for as long as i can remember.

Not that fast tho.

“mesmer complaining, oh the irony”

or a glass cannon 100b

How about you wear some thoughness?

I heard it does wonders.

Sand Beagle.9867:

Right now the warrior is nothing more than an extremely glass cannon one-button-wonder with virtually no survivability and very little viability in pvp. Something needs to change.

Here is what i have gathered from playing the warrior in pvp, and why it is not currently viable:

1. Terrible condition removal and healing; unless you want to constantly switch to your horn and blow all your shout cooldowns just to remove a condition that will most likely be immediately reapplied. But hey, that works for them, because if you are horn specced, chances are you have kitten for damage anyways, so you’ll still be useless. Your heals are all long cooldowns, and the only good heal is the one that gives you HP based on your adren level (around 9k), plus refills your adrenaline bar. The healing signet is by far the worst heal in the game, and isnt even for the briefest moment considered when making a build. This also ties in with your laughable mobility; no way to reset the fight except by blowing all your movement skills to try to run away.

2. No class diversity; you arent a warrior, you are a 100b. That is your class name. If you try to use something that doesnt in some way incorporate 100b, then you are a jelly brain, and you arent welcome in my or anyone else’s group, and you can gtfo.

3. Since you are a 100b, that means 2 of 3 traits are picked for you: Frenzy and bull charge. That leaves one choice, and boy, what to choose. Fear me is extremely situational, endure pain doesnt endure pain, banners? (huehuelol), signet? maybe (not really)… basically leaving just one that can be “useful” at any time: balanced stance.
- By useful i mean you can balanced stance to guarantee stomp someone (if they dont do the 10000 possible things to evade stomp), or revive someone (if you dont insta die to AOE), or to stop someone from knocking you over for 8 seconds (because it matters if your 100b warrior is currently knocked down, right?)… or finally to ensure that your 100b combo wont be disrupted by anyone (though it will most likely still miss due to random evades, bad collision, or blinding powder/ageis and every other thing that makes your chance of 100b’ing someone good around 1/10).

4. Broken/useless traits and utility. Traits that increase damage by paltry amounts (5%) based on random situational conditions are almost always a waste. Traits and skills that activate invulnerability are mostly useless and in the wrong trees. Invulnerability skills are useless; endure pain lasts for 3 seconds and doesnt give stability or block condition damage. If you even try to spec defensively, say good bye to at least 20% of your damage, just for the ability to… uhh… remove a few conditions, and hit balanced stance when you get to 50% life (because you’ll definetly only ever get to 50% from being CC’d), or endure pain at 25% life (which to a 100b is about 5k health) so you can still die to condition damage. The only viable trait lines are those that increase your precision, crit damage, and damage increase, because as a 100b, your only goal is damage.

5. Unviability of almost every weapon except the greatsword and possibly the warhammer.
Swords – useless due to low duration bleeds, and resultant inability to bleed stack effectively; useless burst.
Longbow – a complete joke of a weapon; low damage and slow auto attack, random skills that are extremely situational to the point of uselessness; useless burst.
Mace – another useless weapon; higher damage but slow; virtually useless compared to the warhammer; decent burst.
Horn – not even worth swapping from your greatsword.

Aww that’s cute, you’re saying warrior is broken.

Sincerely,

-Engineer

Nerf my mines. Nerf my bombs.
Nerf me and my pistol shots.
I don’t care, I’m engineer.
You can’t take my class from me.

Kick me out of the group.
Tell em I’m a useless noob.
Nerf my kits and weak my ‘nades.
You can’t take my class from me.

There no other I can’t be

But you can’t take my class from me.

Honestly? I’ve been playing Dark Souls for the past few weeks.

Been a fun time. Yay Christmas gifts.

Same !
haha Have you been on the wiki chat?

If so, Heojaua’s the name, been there quite a bit :)

Edit: mad grammar skillz

This build is more damage than support.

There is only 2 skills in there for support which is Shadow Refuge and Blinding Powder.

The only support it will give is stealth, which will dump their aggro is they stay cloaked.

Let me suggest a different set up for support:

http://www.guildhead.com/skill-calc#mMkMMc0M0MnFCMMMxvM9MxGGzcqosVk

I am walking around in cleric gear. (healing)

The whole concept of this is heal your party, you will not dps a lot.

With around 850 healing, cloaking will heal your buddies for around 500 a tick. You can cloak them in many different ways. For example, you can use Shadow Refuge (which is awesome btw) That will heal them for a ton and if they happen to be ranged, they will combo it with physical projectiles which will give them life leech.

Blinding powder cloaks them, Smoke screen comboed with cluster bomb will cloak them, black powder comboed with cluster bomb will cloak them. All these lovely heals will help a ton.

The reason why i do not use a melee weapon is simple because usually, i have to stand around my ranged in order to help them our with smoke screens and smoke bomb.

Smoke bomb will blind your foes and basicaly allow you to become invulnerable as long as it’s up.

I mostly use my thieves guild when i need diversion. For example; ressing 2 dumb kitten melees who tried to do an hero. Ill summon my thives and shadow refuge the dead to rez them.

I use my bow 90% of the time in order to blast combo fields. Ethereal fiel will give everyone Chaos armor, water field will blast heals, freeze will chill the enemies.

Try this one out and I promise you, you will feel a lot more usefull in dungeons.

Alodar, now all we have to do is distract CD somehow and sneak in a few solid hours of total map domination to grab first.

If only CD would stop doing that to us!

CD – well played this go around. We’re still hoping your early morning crew (eastern time that is) will give up and get bored so our much smaller crew can take some objectives.

Heojaua, if I were to guess, I would think that CD doesn’t have full queues during ‘off-peak’ times. It’s just that CD’s off-peak WvW population is significantly larger than TC’s off-peak population. Yesterday I went through the borderlands and in every one of them we were outnumbered by CD. Buuuut… I think in one of them (or more – it’s tough to tell how many players are actually in a zone) we had less than 10 players. So, that doesn’t necessarily mean that CD has a huge off-peak population.

I am glad we’re beating DB. That makes me a happy kitten.

Lol what’s with the dragonbrand hate?

Bassi.3627:

It actually uses 6. The quotation marks are there because the amount of time it takes to gain 6 initiative is lower than it takes for savage leap, rush, or to a lesser extent, whirl wind to complete their cooldown.

I was not sure, I guesstimated lol.

Anyway, kitten chills, stuns, pulls, immobilizes, confuses or cripples right?

Bassi.3627:

Thieves.

They can simply out run you using skills like Infiltrators Shot and the 25% movement speed passive. Even using Sword/Shield and Greatsword catching up to one is an arduous process, as the “cool down” on infiltrators shot is far far lower than Great Sword’s Rush or Swords leap.

It certainly doesn’t help that the skill completely ignores conditions such as cripple and immobilization either.

Infiltrators Shot doesnt have a cooldown. Uses 4 initiative.

I play a full support thief and glass cannon thieves are a joke. Most of them unload on you in their first skills then are initiative starving.

The trick to survive them is simple, toughness and vitality.

If most of your utility skills are DPS skills you are doing it wrong. You need survivability, you need to use combos in order to survive.

Well, that is new.

what the kitten?

I didn’t know we had a night crew o_O;

Tyaen.5148:

This has been covered in half a dozen threads I know of, but I’ll restate what IMO is the major problem. In WvW a thief can chain stealth and prevent a point from flipping, with no way for you to break it. Including spamming AOE throughout the entire circle.

False, when you are cloaked the zone cannot be taken by you.

Having too many different maps that early will hurt the balance of maps themselves (some keep easier to take than others). It will probably happen tho. that might take a long to time for Anet to test them properly. If you look at the PvP map, a lot of it is not discovered yet. I bet more sPvP/WvW maps will show up eventually.

I actually enjoy fighting on the same maps, original tactics are nice to see. kitten you sneaky mesmers!)

Never been to EB…. Queue time is over 9000.

As for the colors, changing colors every week is confusing as hell. Trust me.

OES does WvW every night. We do not have 40 people in WvW everynight tho.

I can see this happen.

Everyone shows up in the same keep (Die hard explosion)

That is some awesome fighting going on at the Isle of Janthis garrison. Been fighting there 3 server for over 3 hours.

Awesome battlefield.
