WP video for mirage is too misleading

For everything im going to say keep in mind that im 90% sure AN will fix clunkyness/Bugs etc.

I dont understand how ppl say bonus dmg after a dodge , forces us to dodge offensively. Its just ; play the game , dodge , deal bonus dmg after dodging.

I originally thought as you do, and I think it has a part to play. The problem, I think, is that an elite specialisation is meant to be a sideways progression; not more powerful, but a different way to play. At present it seems the most effective way to play Mirage is to play core mesmer and press 1 every time you press dodge.

I absolutely agree.

Whole idea of making “introduction” of any elite sp. before developers gather feedback from community is sort of gamble, you really have no clue what will happens with specialization in next 1-2 months. Just because HoT specs stays mostly the same, doesnt mean it will be like that in PoF.

And that moment with GS… like really, it was junk in PvE before and its still junk. Even trying to talk about it neutrally or positive.. feels like betrayal.

Suggestions wanted: fractal currency sinks

Suggestions Time!

Fractal food: Recipe’s obtainable from BLING9000, some of components (or just single component) can be found in daily recommended fractals (in order to make them a bit more interesting for t4/CM runners) or bought for relics.

While mist food working in Tyria, stats of this food scales based on your AR level, but only in FotM.
Example: Bowl of Mysterious Mist Chicken Soup: 60 power, 60 ferocity, 10% more experience and karma. With 150AR it will look like 150 power and 150 ferocity, 25% to karma and exp.

Additional effects unlocks at 150AR such as – (one effect per food, not all in same time).

  • Dodge Jumps now leap finisher (or any other finisher, if its possible to implement).
  • When your HP drops to 10%, stun break and gain Feline Protection buff (Unique buff from one of Cat Golems in Uncategorised Fractal) for 2 seconds with big iCD.
  • If one of nearby allies in down state, gain 3 seconds of quickness and increased revive speed.

Let us build little cooking station on one of isles in Mistlock Observatory (also relic sink).

Guild Hall Decorations:

I was hoping to get new solid ocean decorations with Shattered Observatory release, since there was nothing new about guild halls, how about let us craft few new decorations in future releases like -

  • Solid Ocean Pillars (crystal and normal variant)
  • Solid Ocean Walls (same here)
  • Mist Waterfall (like Caudecus Manor statue decoration from Lake Doric buttler merchant or CM dungeon) Expensive.
  • Orb of Power (Glowing ball from new fractal/mistlook sanctuary, not moving, just floating), possible 2-3 sized versions? Very expensive!

Fractal Outfits

Since making outfit less expensive than armor, how about 2 outfits (one of them will have a look between light and medium weight class archetype and second between medium and heavy class). If, in next year or two, you guys don’t have any plans regarding fractal armors, then outfits.. they fine too.

Mist Infused Weapons

White/grey Anomaly focus skin with some mist effect around, relatively easy to make and it will make people who like unique looking focus skins very, very happy.

PLEASE? REALLY BIG PUPPY EYES.

Mirage in its current state not interesting for a PvE player who wanted to be efficient and deadly in open world or instanced content.

Reasons.

1) No effective AoE skills, especially power based.

2) Lackluster utility skills. I do like redirecting your phantasms though, maybe it should be F5 skill instead?

3) Axe skill 2 destroys one of your phantasm if you already have 3 active. Not cool.

4) Phantasms dont have ambush skills.

5) Sword ambush skill – I like mobility component, but for a main power weapon, damage from ambush skill… laughable.

6) Jaunt.. require buff to its range and additional functionality in PvE (Short daze? Short blur for allies?), otherwise nobody will ever use it in challenging content due to other great elite skills mesmer have.

7) Grandmaster traits either have to be baseline/major traits or be changed to something actually interesting to use. 20% condition duration because bleeding as GM.. Its not offering new forms of control over your character or anything like that.. I am sorry but elite GMs should be.. more inventive than this.

Slightly offtopic.

8) Greatsword… this whole weapon in PvE.. Change laser animation to little versions of Illusionary Wave (like one of Holosmith traits do), increase damage or something different but interesting. Nobody using it in any serious PvE activity, using it in open world just slow new players down.

Conclusion: Niche spec, feels like standard trait line, doesnt feel like something new, old stuff with tweks.

Incognito.3529

To my knowledge, every HP is solo-able in HoT with enough effort and knowledge of the boss you fight, I have managed to solo all of em at least ONCE by throwing myself at the wall, until I beat it by a margin and lucked out… Except for this one, there’s no way!

Was killed solo by me after lots of attempts. ~40 minutes

Hard, but not impossible.

Mesmer/Chrono other roles

Chrono can provide other buffs like permanent protection, fury etc (in fact all of them with exception of might and things like resistance). Condition mesmer shows good results with enemy like Matthias.

so was kicked from raid

Posted by: Incognito.3529

Incognito.3529

was kicked from raid cause i was only one standing near glenna when commander said everyone stack on boss and everyone was out of range and glenna was getting debuff.
wonder if it is reportable cause commander wouldnt listen.

Glenna cannot die because of debuff at this stage of the encounter. Only boss (if someone like you stacking on top of her) and warg able to kill her. You got kicked because of lack of knowledge. Kicking people without warning in general its not nice but joining hard content without having idea what to do.. Its bad behavior as well.

“cause seekers still spawn at last fight” This is impossible.

Nerf hero challenges in HoT maps

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Incognito.3529

Incognito.3529

Alot of the champions are simply not soloable and with how few players running around the maps its incredibly hard do them daily.

-The TD sniper champ takes out 40% of my health per hit from anything which is ok since you can kite but the adds that spawn does a leap attack of 8k per leap. Are you kidding me?
-The vampire champ in VB will easily heal to half health if you don’t instant break his CC bar which is impossible alone and you must dodge every SINGLE attack he does on you or he will outheal you.
Just to name a few. Seriously what happens when the next expansion hits none of the content can be completed at all.

“what happens when the next expansion hits” – When next expac hits, HoT become free-to-play.

“none of the content can be completed at all” – Simply not true. All HP in this game can be at least duoed. Even Balthazar HP.

Charr and Asura female precursor armor

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Incognito.3529

Incognito.3529

Hi all,

Yesterday we released the precursor of ascended armor. For the Charr and Asura female armor we adapted the female-variant breastplate, flattened out, but still with cups. You’ve rightly pointed out that it looks incongruent with Charr and Asura female anatomy.

We sometimes adapt male-variant and sometimes female-variant armor to use with female Charr and Asura, depending on what looks right for the armor in question. In this case it looks like a male-variant precursor breastplate, which would lead to the male-variant legendary breastplate, would be more in line with what we all expect for Charr and Asura female armor.

Today is one day after release; you’re presumably not that attached to your Charr and Asura female precursor armor yet. Would you like us to swap out the female-variant breastplate for a male-variant one?

Mo

Yes, because in general I like male versions of armor/outfit. But in fact I don’t really care about specific things like number of breasts. Best option is – be able to chose female or male version (not only with legendary armor) but I think its impossible because of various reasons.

What elite spec do we want next?

in Mesmer

Posted by: Incognito.3529

Incognito.3529

How do you think we could increase our sustained damage (and if possible in a non-AI dependent way) with a new elite spec?

“Chaos by itself are unpredictable, volatile. It can empower you, but for what price?”

New specific mechanic of Chaos Reaver its reversion of illusions and shatter effects. Mind Wrack changed to Mind over Matter. For activation you don’t need to shatter phantasms or clones, in fact you cant do this anymore. You deal more damage with every second and rapidly lose health (Remember Arah p1 Crystaline Entity fight?). Cry of Frustration become Absolute Configuration which increase your movement speed and ability to ignore some amount of target’s armor but also make you more and more vulnerable.

Wait, you cannot shatter clones? What?

Yes, you cant’. Unstable phantasms have very low health and losing it like necromancer’s jagged horros, but they do more damage, they faster and cast time are reduced.

Basically its mirrored version of mesmer. And funny enough, now WE need support and healing in order to show great dps, however even without it, in short fights we become much more effective. Yeah, no more slowpoke mode in open world content.

I want specialization with kits in form of Phantasmal weapons (Shiro from Fate/Stay says hi). Making weapon by using pure energy and willpower are really cool idea in my opinion.

What can be worst possible thing to happen? Minstrel specialization. 1-2 years more as support machine? How about different roles? Please?

Only personal skill matters here. Personally I dont even know why someone need “survivability” in open world, no matter core Tyria or Heart of Maguuma. Enemy’s are slow, predictable and have very limited amount of skills.

Illusionary Riposte: Block up to 3 incoming attacks, every block increase damage of this skill by 33%.

Mirror: Reflect incoming missiles, if your HP fall below 50% while casting this skill, mirror explode and apply AoE blind (8s) and 10 stacks of bleeding (3 seconds).

No. The shield is an unattractive shape, wider than it is tall, and the greatsword – as ANet so often seems to like to do – is ruined by the flat end instead of coming to a point. The 1H sword is the only one that is even remotely tempting, but I have many, many other 1H skins I like already.

Agree with you. Anet just be lazy sometimes! Make 1h sword bigger and sell it!

It’s actually pretty bad to send the chrono onto lightning duty because that means your main dps (likely revs/warriors/other power) are missing out on quickness/alacrity and that can be a substantial dps loss over..

It is true. Correct continium split rotation are very important, there must be no extra distraction especially after first phase. Sometimes I just cant use any of my buffs because boss constantly moving and someone too far from circle and when circle ends, I cant do it again because guardian start his AoE attack etc, etc. Its happens mostly with randoms, so keep it in mind.

Note: “Cant do” means – not effective enough.
