Or they could at least split solo and team que.
people would simply choose to kill instead of finishing, specially since every class has a mechatic in order to prevent the stomp.. imagine knowing that you have to try to finishing someone at least twice.. and that’s if there aren’t any team mates around..
group fights would also be hell lol
So exactly what does a necro have access to that doesn’t require either 30 points into a bad trait line or burning an elite?
I gave up expecting this game to be fixed a while ago TBH.
Can’t be as bad as my 500+ place drop without playing any games.
NEWS FLASH!
Anvil Rock became the “ID1” of GW2 a long time ago.
As I posted before, this will mean nothing until they sort out solo/group que.
Basically what happened: We were watching the leader boards and saw a bug crop up with a small # of accounts. We held leader boards while we fixed the bug.
Is this the reason match making turned to kitten?
Pretty sure this is GW2 forum.
Move along if you have nothing constructive to say.
Topic as states.
Gemstore paid name changes please.
You have the ability to reset names (when reported/deemed inappropriate), allow us to buy this please.
Thank you.
The solution would be as simple as giving 10 laurels to those who finished both monthlies before the patch.
Everything else is unfair.kitten I hate useless people that actually think this is a thing.
You did your PvP monthly knowing full well what your reward will be (ignorance is not an excuse).
Its like whining about buying something on release, then kittening for a refund when the price drops.But it’s nothing like that, since it’s giving people who don’t even PvP normally an unfair advantage.
Give one valid reason why giving 10 laurels to those who already completed the monthly wouldn’t be fair to everyone? Who could possibly complain after that?
The exact same reason you can’t buy something brand new, and go back in a few weeks later and get a refund when the price drops.
You did X for Y at the time, were happy and accepted that.
Now that doing X grants you Y+Z you QQ for Z.
OH WOE IS ME.

What good thief ever used haste?
Exactly, carry on, nothing to see here.

Last 10 where ever you want it (I think I am currently running “Spiteful marks VII” in spite). Reapers protection is nice (VII in death magic), as is Ritual mastery (VIII in blood magic).
Sigil in scepter as you choose (again I think I am running Sigil of Doom).
Feel free to take out Well of Suffering and swap with either Well of Darkness, or Well of Power depending on other teams setup.

Why on earth would anyone spec into condition duration as a necro appart from using it for fear?
wtf is N A I supposed to be?
Sometimes you randomly get dropped from queing.
Always check you are in a que.
Rating will not mean anything until premade and pug are seperate.
I cannot remember the last time I pug’d and didn’t face at least 3 people pre grouped.
Its also SUPER fun when you get matched with a few mid 30’s (im only mid 30 so this isn’t the issue), and then a few 1-9’s, against 40’s-50’s.
What wells are so much better thakitten0/50 corrupt boon + epidemic.
I’ve said it before, as far as clearing a point goes, a necro can do it with the best of them.
:edit:
Why is tha"n a (number five)"getting censored?

Bar all the egotisical bullkitten in the thread, it was a really good interesting read.
I’ve been smashed by OP’s team a few times.
Must pick his brains at some point regarding tatics as I think my teams major problem at the moment is what to do when kitten goes sideways.
Even things as far as opening gambits (for lack of a better term) can be quite advanced when you start looking at counters and counter counters.
Sorry, but a necro in team fight is god tier.
Also Corrupt boon + epidemic is trash compared to wells (IMO).
:edit:
I really struggle to think of anything that can bring to the table what a necro can in a team fight. The only real downfall of the necro is that they are pretty average outside of team fights. Mobility and 1v1 wise. But yeah, nothing much can clear a point like a well played necro.

You could even have it to display the armour from your current location display.
Log out in HOTM? Display PvP Gear.
Log out in town gear? Display town gear.
Log out in PvE gear? Display PvE gear.
Try saying that with straight face when you get thrown into a match with one of NA’s best teams as a pug, twice.
I would be honored by that and tried to learn as much as possible. Sure, you die probably very fast against a good team, so? Try to stay alive a little bit longer and don’t give up.
I will say that with a straight face, I have never left a match no matter how dire the situation looks, just try to get the best of it, but then again if you don’t want to improve your play, sure keep playing with people who are infinitely worse at playing than you are.
You learn nothing from playing against people with little understanding or who have no idea about their class.
Sure it gives you easy wins, but it does not make you a good player.
All the OP is asking here is that you respect the people who ended up on your team and do your best no matter the odds.
Those who leave show nothing but disrespect to their fellow team mates..
In a solo environment, you learn exactly kitten all going against those guys.
You are either dead, dying, on respawn timer, downed, or running away.
Its a massive flaw with the current system, a PUG should never face a pre-made team, ever.
I would wager a random group of the top 25 players(assuming they don’t all play with/against each other, which they do), without any team comp, would stuggle against an above average pre made.
I have faced them as a group, and it is eye opening when you can get the feedback from your team and see what they did and how they did it.

Hot join.
1v1 no party join, solo only.
1v1 party join, no solo.
Problem solved (for the mean time).
…. should be removed.
Yes its just a pixels and 95% of guild wars population wont become animal abusers because of that but we have children playing here. Proposing that bashing rabbits or kitties to death is rewardable ( which is what anet is suggesting here ) is wrong and i bet in some form – illegal.
Yes yes this is a game but we have too much violence in games already, why add more?
You do know that wild cats and rabbits are considered pests in most countries around the world right?
I hate this map with a passion.
Only exaggerates bunker/burst play style.
Still haven’t fixed the many bugs of skills missing due to elevation changes/tiny rocks in the way.
Must admit I do like your build (I think I made a trait change? not at home and can’t tell). I did run a hammer sword sheild shouts healing build a while back, then caved and went back to bull 100b :/
One thing that drives me bat kitten crazy is how bad the hammer skills are (even leap to an extent) when it comes to different elevations.
Still not 100% sure about the war horn yet.
I see the upside of it, just not sure if I prefer it to sheild, the extra stun is nice (given that you shouldn’t need it), but sheild block is sooo tasty when you seem to be #1 target all of the time.
Even with the elevation changes?
Warriors useless outside of kitten blades?
Pro tip.
Take a hammer + sword and sheild/warhorn.
A lot of my solo tournament play hurts my kittening brain.
People do stupid stuff.
ALL.
THE.
TIME.
So exactly when did any sane person ever run a glass cannon spec ele?
14k hp does not make eles glass cannons.
I think I was running mine with 13k as a bunker.
haste stomp.
/thread
Because no haste stomp randomly failed ever?
Visible rating system I am fine with.
Visible rank system is a terrible idea.
Just because you can zerg around 8v8 hotjoin back capping and tagging people must make you super srs good in tPvP.
No, when I say lols, I actually mean lols.
It was a team of 5 people in the same guild, and we found it hysterical.
It didn’t help that we were being called every name under the sun and being told we were trash.
Believe it or not, playing frees with a few people messing around can be this thing that some people call fun.
Warriors are good, just not as good at what they do as other classes.
Lets be honest, the most popular builds for warriors are based around bulls frenzy 100b.
Dodge that and it takes a well skilled warrior to come back and still win the fight.
Only time I play frees with my friends is if we can’t be kittened getting on vent/mumble/TS or we don’t have a full team of 5 for paids.
Still super lols when its 4(me and 2 friends + random) v 5 full team and winning.
- = Ele
- = Mes/Ranger
- = Necro/Guardian
- = War
- = Theif/Engineer
I see #2 and #3 as being very very close almost to the point where they are in the same class.
Eles aren’t super broken, its just an accumulation of all the minor things that combine into 1 big massive kitten off OP build.
Started running one recently and was shocked at how easy it was to roll my face across the keyboard and survive.
It IS broken and needs to be fixed.
Says they don’t want bunker/burst meta.
Gives us something that needs the bunker (carrier, d/d ele says hi), and burst.
Any reason you can’t have 100% solo, and team.
Say the team is 3, then draw 2 randoms/team of 2?
Not ideal, but might be a middle ground type fix.
Wouldn’t be bad if you could stomp, and underwater wasn’t so unbalanced and crap.
An ele shouldn’t be able to do what an ele can do in a downed state…
Biggest problem with an individual “ELO” rating is that how is it going to do it accurately?
Cause the current score system is flawed as hell.
Also WHEN people figure out how to abuse the system, is going to make it useless and redundant (smurfing, champ point farming anyone?).
Tell mesmer’s their #2 is fine when I stealth stomp them.
All I’m getting at is downed states are not something that requires much thought.
You either win or lose, in downed vs downed ranger is best hands down.
To me, 1 “wasted” utility is better than 15-20 seconds of being out of the match and needing to run back to a point.
You were making it out as being downed as an engineer is auto-lose.
I gave you an example of how you are wrong.
If being downed vs another downed is common enough for you to warrant making a thread, one utility skill seems like a fair trade to win all of these.
@Avathor
And same skills for everyone for on-land fight!
No really man, it would be pretty boring.
I just think they should work on some downed state balance.
RuneBlade is right, some #2 are way more useful then others.
Heck I play Necro and engineer as main, and they prolyl have the worse downed state in game.
On My engineer, If I get downed at the same time as the ennemy, I know I just lost the fight. My #1 do weak damage and random condition (in downed vs downed fight, all my condition except bleed is useless.), my #2 got a long charge up time and do weak damage. Only our #3 hit like a truck, but you need to be right next to them.
In downed vs downed state fights :
Engineer vs Ranger : Ranger lick wound and kill me
Engineer vs Necromancer: Necro #1 hit really hard over time, and leech life. Still can be a close fight.
Engineer vs Guardian : Over heal us, kill us.
Engineer vs Warrior : Vengeance, finisher.
Engineer vs Mesmer : Mind blast hit like a truck, and #3 rogue have crazy dps.
Engineer vs Thief : Close fight I think.
Engineer vs Elem : Close fight, but if they are losing they just mist form away and heal up.So It’s Ok, some class have in better in downed vs downed fight then my engineer. You can’t be good in everything.
But the sad thing, is we have prolly the worse #2 for interrupt too. We have a single target pull as #2. Useless in spvp, as most can see the charge up time it take to shot, and just dodge it.
Engineer : Single target, affected by Stability, invul, dodge, blind, stealth ect, low damage.
Ranger : Small AoE, Affected by stability, invul dodge blind stealth ect.. low damage
Thief : 100% sure to interrupt the first stomp.
Mesmer : 90% sure to interrupt first stomp, if unlucky can appaear too close.
Warrior : single target, affected by stability, invul dodge blind stealth ect.. low damage
Guardian : AoE, affected by stability invul dodge …
Elem : 100% interrupt, big mobility.
Necromancer : Single tarfget, affected by stability invul dodge …So when I play my engineer, I know I have among the worse downed state in the game. I know that If I’m in a downed vs downed fight, 9 time out of 10 I will lose. I know I will prolly not interrupt the first stomp vs a good player.
I know that when I down another engineer, I only have to ether blind/Elixir S/stealth/stability to stomped them. Can’t say that about every other class.
You seem to be forgetting you can self res as an enigneer pretty easily.
^yeah..Anet what are you doing??clones seriously?
Quick change every class core mechanic to a stupid burst skill that builds up with some kind of energy.Then give them a big sword to swing to each other and see the interesting gameplay that develops afterwards ..
hehe :PEvery other game, even guild wars 1, managed to create classes without clones or excess number of “pets” and were very successful.
Thing is, they tried to create something fun and innovative and didn’t realize that something fun for pve could be terribly terribly wrong for pvp
IWAY
AoTL
SWAY
Can’t remember the hexway that used jagged horrors.
Those are just of the few builds in GW1 that used many pets/summons.
So where is the warriors, necros, rangers ability to do this ?
kitten me pink.
I’ll stay away from the PvE forums from now on.
Consider this my lesson learnt.
