PvP Quick Stomp

yea, but thieves appear to do it the most, I don’t see a lot of other classes use stealth much in pvp.

Druids res and stomp while being invisible from their astral force, also they juke a lot with it. Same goes for scrappers and their sneak gyro. So the top resbots in the game use stealth on a regular base.

Is this also overpowered?

And breaking news: being invisible does not make you invulnerable (or immune to cc).

nerf d/p and evades

in Thief

Since OPs title is “nerf d/p” and he mentions evadades on weapons, may I ask how many evades are there on d/p?

Removing daze (possibility to interrupt) from pistol is actually a ridiculous suggestion, since PI (strong source of dmg) is almost useless.

Reducing smoke field from Black Powder to 1 sec is again extremely over the top. Is there any field which stays for only 1 sec?

OT: OP, I am sorry that you died on your trapper guardian to a thief.

In-combat Run Speed Too Slow?

Speed is fine from my point of view. I think otherwise the maps are too small if the fights rotate faster.

I thinking of coming back...

There are a few possibilities you can try.

1) Guardian: Bunker or Burn or even GS+Sword/Focus
2) Necromancer: Condi or Power (Condi is stronger on Vanilla)

thief, mesmer and warrior are op

Everyone knows it.

Time to act. All fair minded players need to support this initiative. For too long have these professions kept the others down with their op kitten.

Thief = way too much sustain and evasion for the mad dps. It warps the game and is way too good.

My proposals:
Reduce pulmonary impact damage by 25%. Passive dps should not be so good when thief has a spammable insta cast ranged interrupt. Like really…

This is the most dumb idea I’ve seen on the forums in a long time. ‘Like really.’ What you want to be nerfed isn’t pulmonary impact, but it is the ricidulous amount of dodges a staff thief or acro thief has. Remove the evade frame on #3 for staff, and nerf acrobatics, and now we are getting somewhere. I mean, do you really want this to be bunker wars 2? And speak for yourself, next time please.

I couldn’t agree more. Not PI is the problem, the vault spamming build appears to be a bit out of order.

OT: I like how a necromancer complains about passive procs (which PI obviously is not btw).

5 Buffs to Tempest That Could Make FA Viable

in PvP

I think 1-4 are reasonable somehow.

However 5 seems a bit over the top from my perspective. Imagine if you would implement this buff today. What would happen? Alle D/F Auramancer would get a strong buff to their sustain with the water field and a very strong CC in team fights with air overload. So from this buff I doubt that you would push elementalists in a dos role.

Static Charge doesn’t CC at all, and the water field won’t stop overload water from being interrupted. And a moving water field is in no way overpowered, look no further than druid or warhorn on that fact. Moving water field wasn’t strong enough to make d/why meta.

Oh, my bad, you are right about the static charge of course. Nevertheless I do think that a moving water field is very strong (at no point I said it was overpowered), especially on an ele. And my point was more like that this buff will effect the tempest in general, and will most likely not focus on a stronger DPS ele, which is obviously your goal.

Voice Function for SPVP

You want them to create a voice chat system when there are plenty of alternatives that perform very well?

This thread doesn’t deal with voice communications in general. Its main target is to form a platform where randoms can voice-communicate without organising third party software.

For team queues you can certainly always use TS or Discord, but if you queue with randoms, you simply don’t have the time to get on teamspeak with them.

Most of the arguments “to be raged at voice” are poor in my opinion. First of all there are possibilities to mute, and if you are so scared about being raged, maybe consider that you actively have to active voice communication, so it is still everyones free will.

(By using that argument I could ask for removing team chat since there is so much salt there as well btw.)

Hell no. I’ve got consistently bad teams (5 losses in a row, my team members dont know where to go, dont focus targeted enemies, fight outside of point, plain idiocy), and a voice system would only make all the salt and hate destroy everyone’s speakers. No.

I won’t deny that bad skills are an issue , for sure they are. However, maybe some people will focus targets more if called over voice. If they are so focused on using their skill rotation, they won’t be able to read the chat simultaneously.

Furthermore I don’t see that “non-English-speakers” would be an issue, since they won’t understand written English as well.

I personnaly do understand written English but I don’t understand spoken English.

Well, you could consider this as a great chance becoming able to understand spoken English. However I am certain that you will understand “go close/mid/far” or “lets go lord”.

This is such a good idea, I fully support it!

Of course there should be a possibility to mute/block people if they troll/insult or annoy in any way. This is easy to implement so the issue of people behaving poorly can’t be used as an excuse to deny this suggestion.

Furthermore I don’t see that “non-English-speakers” would be an issue, since they won’t understand written English as well.

I am certain that a voice communication would improve competitive gameplay (like counter strike e.g.).

Looking forward to see a devs response!

Since I crafted Chuka and Champawat I have a tiger on my back which I can’t remove. Sadly I destroyed all items I used to craft the short bow. The NPC in Lions Arch does not offer me any helpful item to get rid of the tiger.

How can I remove the tiger from my back?

Removing my back item does not work.

Thanks in advance.
