Guild Wars 2

Why not use the same mechanic as for players ?
I mean adding a down state to lords and allow instant rez with war banner as long as lord is down. They can increase lord resistance in down state, so it won’t instant die with player attacks.
If lord is dead, then hand rez, same as it currently works for players.

They introduced this annoying down state in pve with Scarlet’s minions, so it should be possible to do the same in WvW.

I love how tattoo and mask look together.

I went to WvW to level up my alt (necromancer and guardian). Usually, I wait until lvl 30, so I have access to all usefull skills.

Leveling is quite fast, and surprisingly you don’t need exotic stuff to survive in a raid. You can use the karma armors availables in WvW, with vitality and toughness. You won’t do much damages, but you can still support allies and control ennemies pretty well.
Much more fun than leveling alone on pve maps.

Necromancer, I deleted the human one just to have that face and look <3
And guardian. I love T3 heavy armor, but too expensive for now.

Blobs are annoying when you want a fight, but it’s part of the system. And it’s not that much of a problem when you see a blob like Desolation has a hard time splitting to defend 2 points at a time. (though, it still hurts like hell when you are at the tower they chose to defend… :’| )

I’ve got a question for the Millers who played on FR borderland those last 2 evenings (genuine, no troll or provocation intended) :
You (Miller) and us (FR) have been trying to reset this kitten ed full upgraded T3 Desolation Bay for 2 evenings now.
Sometimes we even managed to break through the 2nd gate and somehow see the lord (sort of… need some imagination to see though the Desolation mass). And then you came. No disapprobation here, we happily did the same to try to snatch up the keep under your nose when you opened the door.

But… why did you focus FR in Bay every time you got the opportunity? There is plenty of space in Bay, and more than a way to get to the Lord. We (Miller and FR) had dozens of golden chances to reset this keep, but every time I saw Miller run to FR position and we just ended killing each other while Desolation eat popcorn on the walls and enjoyed the show… I don’t like helping Desolation keep Bay, or see them eating pop corn.

Why couldn’t we just prioritize, kick Desolation out and then resume to happily slaughter each other ?
I won’t say we would not try to get Bay ninja style during the fights (<3)… but even if we (FR) got it, it would be a wooden T0 we suck at defending that you can break into in 5 minutes … top… without siege weapons… and disguised as pink quaggans.

Plus, it would annoy Desolation. Master win.

Two evenings in a row is a little too much for this nonsense, I needed to ask :p

Chaotic dampering and Illusionist celerity don’t combine.

As example:
I play with a staff, and “phase retreat” cooldown used to be 6s with those 2 traits together.
Now it remains 8s, whether I use only one of those traits or both.

There may be the same problem with other weapons traits, i didn’t test.
