Guild Wars 2

I am almost at 80 and up until now I have been using zerker armor for everything and have been doing Ok. I’m wondering what the general consensus is on Viper armor and is it good for a Mesmer over assassin or zerker.

Thanks

Here is my attempt

This looks kind of interesting, and GW2 was listed on the games menu.

Should have been shield, like a battle mage.

I’m new to WvW but FA you guys were relentless last night on WC, 3 Trebs hitting it from SMC and I think you had a cata in the dredge cave pounding on the wall. A few of us were running around with supply trying to keep it up but in the end you guys were to much for are small group. Awesome work

Just hit 49 last night

Different pieces from different Karma vendors, here is where I got the list from

Then I dyed it Midnight Black and ancient silver.

While I don’t RP I do like to have my Necromancer look the part so I bought the weapons I like and just keep transmuting them as I level.

I also keep transmuting new gear I get into this skin because I think it’s most Necro like, until you get near 80.

Bump cause I miss the old days of UO

At the time of posting it was less than an hour old

What you do is, here’s what you do. You convince a few people in WvW to come out into LA right? Then you go “Hey guys! There’s a special event going on in all the borderlands in WvW, you gotta find it in one of the keeps!” then one of your mates says “i just got my achievement” and then you have some guys waiting on the other side in the borderlands “oh man! i think i saw it in AH!” and then you go take it and when they are all like, where mah event man, some one else goes “just spotted mad king in the garrison lord room”

I dunno, might work.

LOL I take back what I said, you have a much better idea +1

Off the top of my head…… make it so when you cap a keep, Tower, whatever that it auto upgrades to fully fortified walls, doors/gate. Give a -50% repair cost and make Trebs, Carts, Cata, etc cost 50% less to create and allow players to carry 20 supplies. And give the players an increased badge find buff.

That sounds ridiculously imbalanced.

Ok so scale it down, point is that if you are really out manned and you manage to take something this will give you a strong foothold, and since you will have no supplies you can at least make some defense weapons. How much longer do you think they would last against a zerg?

Anyone have the time to give us a score update?

I just want to say, this has been by far the best matchup in WvW. That is if you don’t include Yak’s fight just a few weeks ago when it came down to the last hour to decide the winner. I hope that if CD moves on DH stays in our bracket at least. Great fighting by everyone and if CD didn’t have the coverage that they do (not bashing you for it ) there would be a 1k difference in points on all three servers.

I honestly think Yak’s would be leading if we didn’t have our coverage, you guys are very good.

Off the top of my head…… make it so when you cap a keep, Tower, whatever that it auto upgrades to fully fortified walls, doors/gate. Give a -50% repair cost and make Trebs, Carts, Cata, etc cost 50% less to create and allow players to carry 20 supplies. And give the players an increased badge find buff.

I’m on CD fighting yaks this week and I have to say this server is heading to the top for sure. The tactics they use and the response time is A+, it has been a pleasure doing battle with them.

Lets find a dead server and have all the CD, Yaks and DH W3 people transfer, Including our after hours teams, then we would have an unstoppable 24/7 killing machine!!!

@fivekiller ah ok thanks for the heads up….This is really only my first week playing in WvW so I’m still trying to figure stuff out.

I think they have double Teamed us, I seem to remember one of the times we had SM and yaks was on one side attacking and DH on the other side.

Grimsprocket the mad bomber engineer from CD here I have no doubt that if we didn’t have the most amazing Malaysian/Singapore/Australian teams the score would be close to neck and neck for all teams.

I don’t know if it was Yacks or DH that had those 2 golem’s at 11:00 ish but you burst into SM, claimed it and in the time it took me to build a treb at wildcreek (with help) and take down the walls you were on our fully forted WC base making it yours……you guys were ruthless.

I have much respect for all players on Yacks and DH, keep up the good fight. And please ignore me on the battlefield

Right now I am using all Power/Crit/+Crit Damage Armor and same with my rings, my accessories and amulet has some vitality on it but not much. While this puts out some awesome damage, I am very much a glass canon and am prone to getting 1 or 2 shot in dungeon runs.

In order to be a little more resilient in dungeon runs and in WvWvW (until I get the specific gear for it) I was thinking of getting the Arcon set which has the following stats

Power 214
Precision 72
Toughness 152
Vitality 224
Condition Damage 0
Healing 101

I was then thinking of loading it up with eagle runs (or orbs) that brought the Precision and crit damage up.

It seems like a balanced set but I would like some opinions before dropping the 252k karma for everything.

So my comments are based on pve only since I haven’t gotten around to any pvp yet..

I played a P/P condition build from 1 to 80 and loved it, it was the exact same build that Vudani used in his videos. Once I got to 80 and started having to deal with the risen in Orr I started to see that it kinda took awhile to kill them, granted once they were loaded up with conditions I could just run around and they would die.

Then while grouping I noticed how trash mobs went down so quickly I mean I maybe got a poison volley off and they were dead……so no meaningful dps done and very little loot. Then while grouping I noticed how many condition were on a champ and started reading on limits on conditions and thought that has got to hurt my damage.

I then decided to look at the rifle builds and I came across a video from a guy BigFancyBen.

His Build with commentary – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iN-iQgJICg&feature=plcp

His pvp reel – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJkTMqJOWvU&feature=plcp

This is pretty much a pvp build but I decided to try it in pve since that what I mainly do. I was pretty impressed with the killing speed and as I added more gear I was more happy with it. Now instead of loading the mob up with conditions and dancing around…..I take a shot with the rifle, hit surprise shot, throw wrench and overcharged shot and they are dead, sometimes I don’t even need the overcharge and just take another rifle shot. The grenades hit really hard as well and sometimes if I get 2 or 3 mobs I will just stand in place and spam the #1 grenade and they all die before I’m at half health.

Anyway spend some silver and grab a bunch of power/pres/crit damage gear and give it a try. I LOVED the condition P/P build but after playing this I’m kinda hooked on the big numbers and quick killing.
