Guild Wars 2

Jon also stated that they are working on a way to reduce the particle effects in pvp to make it less “clusterkitten”

These bugs have been around since launch and I alrdy posted multiple bug reports on them but never got a reply and after every patch they were still there:

-Dragon’s tooth: Damage gets nullified when you get interrupted after the cast has finished.
- Phoenix: Dodge gets nullified when the vigor animation triggers and thus cancelling your dodge, the dodge will not grant you the benefits from evasive arcana.

It sounds like a decent plan, for pve only ofc.

It could be integrated into the current system, you sign up with your team each month and when you play with that team, your matches will count towards the monthly event. It would also give casters something to cast each month.

If they could pull this off, it sounds awesome! Nice suggestion!

30 activities lol… Never saw that video before, tbh I didnt watch any of the pre launch videos because i knew most of it was just going to be PR kitten.

How many activities have we now? 1? And tbh i have never played it xD

Dragon’s tooth also gets canceled if you dodge after the cast time is finished.

Found an another nerf with RTL:

You cannot jump and use RTL at the same time =(

^ This was the best part about RTL, the things we were able to cross…

Whatever you decide, don’t transfer to Far Shiverpeaks. We like our match up and don’t want anyone to carry us any higher.

The "new"glyph of storm still deals less damage then arcane wave/blast and has a longer cooldown. Signet of Earth does not compare to mist form or the utillities I mentioned above.

Also since ppl are finally starting to pull mobs together through skills or LoS warriors AoE is far far superior then our measily AoE.

I’m talking about s/d and d/d setups here, not about staff which is IMO the worst weapon setup we have for both PvE and PvP, not only in damage but also in healing and supporting.

Well for starters why would we use RTL to hit our target? I use it 90% of the time to get away from my target when I’m about to get 3 shotted by a random mob.

Yes our AoE is partially ranged (depends on your weapon setup) but it’s also 3x as weak as warriors 2 and 3 skill.

Glyphs are still useless compared to mistform and arcane skills and the traits that should improve them do a lousy job of it.

Instead of just moving this to the elementalist board, how about some feedback Dev’s…

The changes that have been made are good for PvP, but makes the elementalist alot squishier in PvE. And when you switch your equipement to PVT the damage will be ~5% of what a warrior can deal by just pressing 2 and 3.

I’m talking about the changes made to ride the lightning and mist form. These changes don’t make sense for PvE content since the ele’s alrdy have it though in most dungeon’s to keep up with other classes DPS and survivabillity. Ranger pets got buffed by 40-50% but our elementals still die in 2 shots by most bosses. Also the consumable fire elemental (ember) is still far superior then any of our own (elite) elementals.

The buffs we received by buffing the signets aren’t even noticeable + 75% of our traits are still pretty much useless. Conjures are still weak and are very situational.

Reading the description of the elementalist brings a tear to my eye aswell. It says they can deliver powerfull attacks and can do devastating aoe attacks. A warrior still outshines the elementalist in AoE and in attacks in PvE.

Also I would like to take this chance to adress some of the pesky bugs that ele’s have since the launch of the game:

-Dragon’s tooth: Damage gets nullified when you get interrupted after the cast has finished.
- Phoenix: Dodge gets nullified when the vigor animation triggers and thus cancelling your dodge and it will not grant you the benefits from evasive arcana.

I hate submitted multiple bug reports since launch about these bugs, but patch after patch they still excist.

How about some PvE love for the elementalist ANet?

I know that we have an elementalist board but it seems that dev’s have abbandon it.

Ye but the problem is if I’m running around the map, and I hit the target I get in combat mode drastically reducing my movement speed. While warriors thiefs and the rest can just spam their movement speed to fly around the map.

Really? I understand the need to nerf this for PvP, but why nerf it for PvE? It’s not like monsters complain… I thought you guys were splitting skills for pve and pvp.

Can you try to fix this before or at the patch? We had some huge guild events planned for today and to organise them now is kinda hard xD

Same here Far Shiverpeaks
Error code: 26:11:5:506
42:6:3:2060

I was trying to log onto WvW

Any EU server with uncontested balth?

“Last online since” in guild roster

Private arena’s

“Kick from guild” option removed from right click drop down menu

Guild interface make over, decrease loading time for loading all the members.

More options for different ranks in the guild. (Like seperate kick command, start guild missions etc.)

Guild leader/officer emblem for guild events (like commander symbol but only visible to members of your guild, makes organising guild events easier)

And ofc..

GvG

Yeye I’m not a complete idiot lol. I finally got a list of my 500 members. It just took a while for the leaderboards to gather the data I guess.

Now for the criticism. Can ANet just add the “Since date x” to a column on the right or left. This would make sorting this stuff ALOT easier.

Edit:
Ooh and add every member to the list, not just the ones that logged in after the leaderboards were launched.

I still prefer the “Last online since…” in the guild roster, which I descriped in my first post. Please ANet help us manage our guilds more effective and efficient.

Lol it works with all the Alt-guilds I’m in except for the one with 500 members… GG ANet

Edit
It worked but only shows up a list with 50 people, I have 150 guildmembers online atm…
I guess the system is still broken and will be fixed soon. And with ANet’s way of fixing these things it wouldn’t surprise that they will just remove the date completly…

So it does work? What browser do you use? Nothing happens when I try to select my guild on Firefox.

And for some reason when I click on my guild to see this, nothing happens…

Or ANet could just implement a “Last online since..” bar in the guild roster… Like in GW1. Atm it’s very hard to track inactive people in a maxed guild, since ANet removed the “Unknown” status with a few patches ago.

Really ANet just implement the kitten thing already, it can’t be that hard…

0/20/0/20/30 With the traits:
20% more damage to mobs with health < 33%
air +10% dam.
10% more damage when hp >90%
Arcane skills reduction
Evasive arcana
Vigor on critical
Full scholar set.

Arcane wave and arcane blast

It makes our damage so much better. Ofc you need to dodge roll alot to keep your hp up, but when you do: hello 16k churning earth, hello 10k dragon’s tooth, hello 13k phoenix and the chain lightning/lightning burst woooowie free 20k damage. EAT THAT 100B WARRIORS

There are certain consumables out there…

Hmm I won’t spoil anything. Go look for them yourself, it makes the fight ridiculous xD

I know that it is a secondary effect of phoenix, but pre-patch it never cancelled my dodge roll.

I just noticed that this always happens when my phoenix (scepter skill 3) returns to me when I dodge roll. When the phoenix touches me and grants me vigor my dodge just stops.

Also I noticed that when I cast churning earth (dagger skills 5) and use arcane wave while casting it, my churning earth just stops.

Lol I know about the cooldown of EA, what I mean is i lay down ring of fire, switch to earth, dodge then right before I land my dodge and grant the earth dodge it just stops, removing endurance but not granting an earth roll.

Hello all,

Since the last patch I’ve been experiencing a weird bug.

Almost 50% of the time when I try to dodge my dodge gets cancelled, which results in endurance been taken but it doesn’t grant me the benefit of the dodge (especially in Earth)

I don’t know why this happens I tried to not press the opposite movement key while dodging, but it still just magically gets cancelled. This is a severe bug that costs me alot of DPS for myself and my party.

I am an ele using evasive arcana, I’m using an Asura model (maybe thats the reason).

I was wondering if there were any changes to the dodge mechanic that makes this happen.

I expected more replies then this =O, yes I’m using evasive arcana. Could a dev respond on this matter if they changed anything with the dodge mechanic =S

I was wondering if you experience the same thing as I do.

Can we get an official dev respond on these type of ‘programs’, because if they are legal Ima design my own.

I do all arah paths on a daily basis, and the sparks can be annoying form time to time but still its pretty easy if you know how to run. (Ash legion spy kits ftw)

We even broke our personal record on p4 yesterday, we completed it in 47 minutes total (took us 12 minutes to get to lupi).

The only downside to arah is its loot, I mean when you complete all 4 paths you at least expect 1 rare. But noooooo only blues and greens.

I’ll just leave this here xD

Add embers for more dps.

How about we just remove the down system for pvp/wvw, it would solve alot of problems.

This is how it works:

Goldsellers buy the most wanted items (including precursors).

Goldbuyers rage and whine that the precursors are so kitten expensive, and buy gold from the goldsellers.

Goldbuyer buys the gold and thus transfers the gold back to the goldsellers so they can sell the gold again.

Rinse and repeat aka instant profit.

I know from sources that p v p bank (lol they filtered this) is sitting on 360000g in supply, and that the demand is about the double of this.

So expect the prices to continue to rise over time. And no, I have not bought any gold and never intend to ever do so.

Err, or just learn how not to die. Start by using dodge once in a while. They really should add a more challenging mode. Killing subject alpha within 1 minute isn’t really fun =/

Ye, maw isn’t possible beyond 50 i believe. You can get carried beyond 50 by doing uneven fractal numbers though.

But even then, the rewards don’t really add up to the amount of damage the mobs do. At lvl 79 you’ll face lvl 84 mobs which will hit you for 8k normal and like 15k crit.

@Sina, I just did FoM lvl 79 with Grimbane. Get on my lvl son! :P

We just completed SE p1/3. I don’t even know what to say, where the hell are all the patrols? Bosses go down so fast its not even funny anymore. Do you guys want us to hit DR even faster?

CoE is next.. Let’s see how fast we can clear all paths now. Former record was 47 minutes for all 3, with the alpha change i expect to complete them all wihtin 30 minutes.

After ofc we wait a hour for the DR to wear off.

Just did CoF 1/2 within 15 minutes. The bosses hp got decreased alot, and their damage aswell. Before the defend the magg part was fun with killing all the mobs. Now its just pathetic =/

Where is my hard mode? I thought dungeons were supposed to be hard in this game. This is just REDICOULUS (<— as a honor to the other topics in this section)

We were running with a guild group, maybe thats why but still really ANet? Really?

We are going to do SE and CoE now, before the patch SE took us 20 min to complete p1/3 I wonder how long it will take us now. But oh well…

Just sue the “companies” that are selling gold?

Right some random scrubs oppinion matters now? How about you do some research on your own and not just quote some “top” players. In a month people will kitten about other classes, when they figure out how to effectivly counter ele’s, which is pretty easy.

I find it funny that all dungeons have some way of skipping content with just some JUMPING. Looks like ANet still needs to learn the power of jumping xD

Btw I could prolly name all the dungeon jump exploits (some let you finish 2 paths in one run) But then again why should I? ANet should’ve tested it themselves before releasing them. Some were very easy to spot (cracks in the walls, I mean come on who designed these dungeons?)

Ooh and on the portal gun thing. ANet has added it in themselves. But I can see it getting removed soon, since they also removed the sentinal gun which granted the One-shot skill ( you could one shot bosses in CoF with them, it made some pretty good lulz though xD)

Try to use some FLIP skills and be amazed how many classes you can destroy as a warrior.

Use immobillize and stabillity and destroy the ele. I’m a genious I know… OMG but he can just remove the immobillize, well then just chill him. Or apply bleed/cripple and then immobillize/chill. Please people try to learn something about the other classes weaknesses before spamming the forums with CLASS Z IS OP PLX FIX ELSE I CRYBABY

Soo… how can we tell whats skills are being used by these new models? Will there be a cast thingy underneath the targetted player? Or do we just have to guess..
