Awesome guide so far, I can’t wait to see the rest! Be sure to include all the ways we can safe-stomp, is all I can think of right now.

This guy stopped attacking yesterday at about midnight EST. I would wait it out until then, about two hours from now.

It’d be nice if they’d at least confirm ‘Hey yo, here’s whats up:

They have and it’s been mentioned several times in this thread.

That’s hearsay, not confirmation on this forum.

Confirmation here occurs when an Anet employee posts here.

They have addressed it at https://twitter.com/GuildWars2 but yeah, they should post a response here too. Good luck ANET! Hope to relog soon!

Can’t dungeon anymore, and WvW is pretty much down right now…

Mobile Turrets

-Resolution-
As all other classes clearly have concepts that either follow them, can be moved, or have extremely low recharges we can see exactly how the engi actually does suffer from inadequacy

Thank you and I would further point out that it’s not limited to turrets, and the instakill mechanics that Engineer healers have to deal with but we are missing traits that other classes take for granted for everything from automatic interval condition removal to burst DPS options that other scout classes possess and don’t have to think about.

Well, to be fair, we DO have burst DPS options, albeit not for turrets. Static discharge engis do kitten damage, at least from a PvP’ers perspective. As for the condition removal, we get condi removal as well as a huge healing burst every 15 seconds, one of the best heals in the game IMO. If that’s not enough or if you’re going against a condi-centric build, take sigil of generosity or purity. I don’t think I want engi’s to have mobile turrets because then ANet would have to nerf turrets as a whole so as to not upset too many people, who, let’s face it, would be upset anyway. Just my 2 cents.

Well, it’s been nine months since the thread started, and nothing has happened despite a HUGE wardrobe and overall character appearance UI update… If nothing has happened yet, I doubt anything will. But, it still gets my +1.

I just wanted to show a couple pics of the level 70 finisher to those that haven’t seen it.

I am not the level 70 in the pictures, all credit goes to Voav; a big thanks for letting me use your character pictures!

Have a question, I am in EST, so I may be on from 2pm to like 6-7pm PST. However, I can stay on late on the weekends; would I still be welcome? Very active player since beta in JQ, and I really enjoy WvW specifically and enjoy PvP and PvE a little as well.

LFG Jade Quarry

in Looking for...

Posted by: Jman.2701

Jman.2701

Hey all, I’m looking for a guild based in Jade Quarry with mostly interest in either WvWvW or PvP. In PvP, I am r39, almost 40. In WvWvW, I have played on most of my characters with ranks ranging from 5 to 40. I have played the game since beta and I consider myself an experienced player, though I’m always ready to learn some more. I do not have access to a mic, but I do have TS so I can listen to others give directions and talk. Please understand that for me RL always comes first. Lastly, the reason that I need a new guild is that nearly everybody from my previous guild left the game, but if a member comes on, I may want to go chat with him for a little while. Other than that I can fully rep.

Living story - good and bad

I agree Sinifair. ANet should ask some of the GW fans for advice and ideas. Some of the YouTube videos that I’ve watched about GW2 lore have amazing ideas that sound like they would be so much fun. Also, the original story didn’t continue at all after the holidays were over. I remember back in October (for some people September) when I defeated Zaitan and Trahearne said that they had started planning to attack the other Elder Dragons. What happened to them?

More developed villain for the future.

I think Scarlet is definetely a lackluster villain thrown out into the game all of the sudden. I get that she was the head of the Aetherblades, which we met a while back. She might have even been responsible for the Molten Alliance. I think the limited background we have about her is interesting after reading that story on the main page. However, to me, none of this really makes up for the fact that she doesn’t have any motive. So she saw the Eternal Alchemy, then decided that she should go form the Aetherblades and Molten Alliance then take over the world. Pretty cheesy if you ask me. It actually seems we had some other beings that were super-powerful and wanted to destroy the world. Oh wait, we did! If anyone wants to know what I think should have happened in the Living World, just check out some of WoodenPotatoes YouTube videos.

sPvP Class Tier List: - Updated 6/30

IMO playing a hybrid guardian. This is just 1v1 wise.
S
None
A
Ranger+
Mesmer+
Elementalist=
Engineer=
Guardian=
B
Thief+
Necromancer-
Z
Warrior

Rangers are hard for me because of their ability to kite while dealing cond. damage plus there pet attacking. Also their regen healing is crazy. Mesmers have good burst with good healing but aren’t too bad if you can keep track of the real one and keep in melee range. The rest in the B class are pretty evenly matched 1v1. Thief is easier to handle. Necro 1v1 is usually pretty easy. Finally, the Warrior just needs to be fixed.

Theif Suggestions

Anybody have suggestions on theives? I was considering putting this in the “theif” section, but I figured this forum was put here for a reason. Here are my suggestions for the thief class:

1. I think we should have more abilities that give stealth and that there should be more abilities while in stealth. eg. assassinations?

2. With stealing maybe in wvw we could steal a weapon temporarily? I think thatd be pretty cool.

Please, if you have any suggestions, add them.
