Guild Wars 2

first of all

longbow is pretty good, they said they did fix the aoe fields from disappearing. Yes i notice this but it still happens time to time

Longbow is pretty good, what i mean by this is that using power and longbow. You will rekt lots of people.

i love it when i rekt supposed pro warriors with longbow and they scream “ew ew condi condi no get off me” then i have to link armor to these pros; they got rekt from my full zerk scholar

Rifle is okay, not the best and volley combined with dodge backward evade on number 4 is the only thing going for it.

half the killshots would go out of range(point blank and mid range at about 600 range units) or obstructed even with clear LoS

do not confuse Gunflame with killshot like the rest of the 90% players

I do not know of any patch saying “reduced killshot damage, reduced killshot range” so there have been unintentional nerfs to this in both categories. It used to work fine but somehow my gunflame just has better overall numbers in damage and lands better without out of range message and obstructed.

again do not confuse killshot and gunflame.

OVERALL TLDR:

Powerbow(zerker armor + longbow) is good.(it finally got some glitches fixed which never were mentioned for years but experienced players have noticed such as AoE fields disappearing)

Rifle(mainly killshot) needs its glitches fixed such as out of range issues and obstructed. Unintentional nerf in damage where killshot needs a buff of 20%.
1 additional fix to rifle can be putting piercing back onto our auto attack and buff its damage by 20%.

Do not confuse gunflame with killshot

the whole post aint meant to offend you

I want to point out to one thing. Brawler recovery is useful against daredevils/thieves(power builds). Helps you overcome the perma blinds along with a hydromancy sigil but I havent use Brawler for long time though and im fine with hydromany to get rid of the blind.

ROFL i logged in just for this funny posts

Warlord, you are a new player

I been roaming, zerging and GVGing on my warrior since BETA

I been to tier 1 blobs to the lowest tiers, i have been to many many different servers throughout my campaign

things I have learned that is useful information for many other warriors

You dont need brawlers recovery. I didnt need it before HoT and dont need it now with the new traits.

Last stand is the best trait you can utilize! It gives you vigor and extends duration for all stances even including defiant stance.

People who use rousing resilience in 1v1’s to outnumber matches are not thinking things though. Unless you directly want to build A UNIQUE build to counter an enemy in a special..very special 1v1 set up

I tell and whisper the enemies to drop rousing resilience after I rekt them with gs hammer to take up Last stand and they do marvelously better.

Also I am the same warrior who preaches Scholar runes and full zerk armor/stats. Especially in outnumber matches like blobs and gvgs.

Time to time for my ultimate dueling build I will use durability runes and boon duration food to be synergistic with the last stand trait.

I will laugh at you and type paragraphs wearing full zerk scholar being in enemy blobs and still come out alive

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

SHIELD BASH WHY WHY

i can care less about nerfs to arcing divider/brawler smash/headbutt

but wtf messing with shield bash>?

I can live with all the changes except for shield bash

was easy to dodge already and now you ruin this skill because just for the heck of it? a OLD SCHOOL skill and you decide to ruin it?

whats the explanation?

thank you,

- Warrior and only play warrior

just went to your website and saw some ‘zerg busting’ videos

i mean you are your own person with your own build with your own personality but please dont disrespect the ‘zerg busting’ term LOL

nice videos, you need to work on utilizing your skills better in certain time frames(e.g your in berserker mode and you waste a potential burst by walking around doing nothing)

What wasn’t Zerg busting about 5 people and a few pugs killing 20+ people?

Also, there is a reason I use my berserk mode every time I use it. The couple times you’re probably referring to where it was wasted was when a ranger full bailed from me while I used it and a warrior did the same lol. It happens, skills get wasted from time to time.

oh my bad

I am still new to wvw

warrior is bad dont play it

i dont see any problem

just a nerf

it is 360 radius but its an ARC (not a full circle)

ur hammer actually hits people further bit out

but in reality we hit less players now because before this was a cascading attack that pulses THROUGH enemies.

deploy-able golems that cost 50 supply to build and has double the thoughness and double the health points of an omega golem and a new skill where it clears 12 conditions in 360 radius every 10 seconds

with a base movement speed of 40%

WvW legendary backpiece and armor

its doable

how?

Add new achievements for backpiece and armor

such as : kill 1000 dolyaks(make it a new achievement), escort 1000 dolyaks, capture 500 camps, capture T3 towers(100 times), capture SMC 250 times, capture garrison 100 times

kill 500 players with cannons, kill 500 players with AC, destroy 500 seige, kill 50,000 players with weapons.

add skirmish rewards (weekly) where you get x amount of certain item depending on your rank (1st place,2nd place, 3rd place) where X item will be needed to craft armor and what not.

Add wvw backpiece and armor related reward track where you would need to repeat 5x and 25x respectively.

make it a lengthy grind

Thank you!

sad stuff in this forum and this thread

Been playing since beta, i always play warrior.

If you think sword sucks compared to enemy cheese builds, its a no.

So what do you use OH sword for? And what Build you use for it?

I mean if you pick and choose you can make every thread obsolete.

off hand sword i use, axe sword with shield mastery (very good for targeted duels like versus gunflame/killshot warrior)

sword 4 does good dmg when landed

sad stuff in this forum and this thread

Been playing since beta, i always play warrior.

If you think sword sucks compared to enemy cheese builds, its a no. You have sword 2, a leap to kite, to engage and to escape with. Yes it will take a little bit longer to kill the enemy with a faceroll build.

Flurry is great for setting up 100b’s or even final thrust especially against necro/reapers

With the new trait(minor adrenal health) makeover, sword is more valuable than ever. Easy to set up those 3 stacks/2 stacks of adrenal health with flurry(dont need intial hit of flurry to grant you adrenal health..any hit from the “flurry” will grant you stacks).

Anyway i dont expect anything from you guys, i dont stick to 1 armor set or build(traits) nor no weapon sets.

In GVG’s I switch it up every round if i need to, in roaming I switch it up every 30 minutes or 1 hour(according to food timer). During WvW raids, i switch it up every 30 minutes as well.

By switch it up, i mean : i try to utilize all weapons, yes even Warhorn(roaming, dueling and etc)

One thing I must add, if your playing sword with Berserker HoT spec with non condi build, you need to utilize the burst for the adrenal health aspect(if you have defense traited) or for its ease of activation for Berserker power trait(% damage)

look at these people

Twistedfighter ^^ normal warrior(vanilla)

Hollts ^^ Berserker spec

make warriors look like they need skill to use sword because of the information provided from this thread

so this is it right? correct me if i am wrong

Every 2 hours, scores reset(0 score across the boards)

Winner(and losers) after a 2 hour match get allocated certain points

Keeps/camps/towers will not reset

Who is dominating will keep dominating

What benefits do I see?

A losing server can try hard @ their prime time zones to get the + 3 points for winning that 2 hour match.

here you go wvw players

discuss!

Elegie.3620:

You got my +1 two secs after the start of the vid – I guess we’re from the same generation, and used to listen to the same things. Nice entrée, looking forward to the main dish

I’ve started roaming a bit lately, and I feel things have changed. I run nearly the same thing as you do, just full marauder/defender for the armor and berserker trinket, with Eternal Champion. I’ve yet to adjust: even with a GS, mobility is a big issue, plus the damage output doesn’t help much against bunkers (and there seems to be lots of them in WvW these days)… Got trolled hard by an elem yesterday.

ye this is exactly why i like to run full zerk scholar

bunkers cant bunker my damage

snarly snarl snarl NICE VIDEO brah

nice video

the bullscharge and your shield bash seem to be impacted by your ping

people with less than 40 ping can make shield bash look like bullscharge(someone with 200 ping).

ping matters a lot

nice video though, nice wings 11/10 wood rate again

make shield skill 4 into 900 range

make shield 5 grant 2 stacks of stability and 3 seconds of resistance

lower cd shield skill 4 to 10 seconds
lower cd shield skill 5 to 8 seconds

oh signet of might, i never thought about using it. thank you bro

i thought it was useless skill that grants 180 power on passive

i dont know about them but i have 4 ascended greatswords and eternity

when you have eternity, you still retain the sunrise and twilight skins.

I do own eternity and do welcome any changes to it. Thank you!

also we dont know if the designers can easily implement a new eternity re skin with its new effects and trails or it might take too much time for development….

Or is it easy as just re dying the colors and particle foot falls?

if later, please do it anet <3

emkelly.2371:

Right now DHs have a very OP bug where they can drop all traps at the exact same time, and they can drop all traps while stomping. so this may be why you are having a hard time.

so you never had a hard time before?

even pre hot?

best way is to run last stand + balance stance and someway to spam adrenal health

but any competent dragonhunter will obliterate you

it works before august 9th patch, we would have 30~40 people with no problems, now we cant even seem to put 15 people in. when the instance does change, it only prompts 3 or 4 of the 15 members to go to new map.

That’s a nasty bug. I hope they fix that. Can you rightclick>join in new instance on the people that did get the pop up?

we do this but the pattern repeats, map will close in 5 minutes etc and only 3 or 4 people get it

Hello all,

It would be nice to have piercing back on auto attack for rifle so we can hit multiple people/enemies/monsters. Right now rifle feels like a good roaming or dueling weapon but not so good compared to other weapons in mass fights.

Thank you,

- Banner boi

My guild has wasted over 10,000 gold just to get a good guild hall and we cant even have guild versus guild fights after the recent patch.

Everytime we invite enemy group or even our PERSONAL GUILD MEMBERS, we can never be on the same map. It always prompts “new map” every time for 3-4 of our members.

How can we enjoy guild hall when we cant even be in it together as a group, 15 of us are trying to join the same map but it never happens because most people are stuck in a different version of the map and cant even taxi into the main group.

Thank you,

you got your money from gem conversion A-net and the functions of such hall do not even work.

Also I have lately noticed, killshot doesnt used to do the damage it used to be able to.

gunflame is spammable and has the interrupt + burn(helps finishes people). The nerf to gunflame was acceptable because it does seem balanced.

gunflame at its current state is superior than killshot even after the nerf to gunflame.

all about that adrenaline huh lol

no dont need adrenaline, need more pressure damage.

when roaming and you kill people in 1v5 and they all hard res and everything else is on cd. what is your auto rifle gona do?

what is it gona do in wvw when killshot and gun flame are already nerfed on top of the damage reduction meta?

auto attack

We used to have pierce on auto attack but they removed it, Anet please look into this

they dont need to grant extra adrenaline, its all programming

lvl 40 scroll birthday booster and backpiece

can the enemy hear it when you stomp them in Wvw

sorry to inform you

this has been like this for a long time

u have to take ‘after cast’ delay into consideration

as a dh, u should be 150% aggressive. keep pressure and rotate your skills and heals. try sword focus + lb + test of faith with daze traited in.

use trap heal as well, spam 1 a lot on your sword and look at his boon bar for signet of might. You can tank all his hits even if it goes through blocks.

be aggressive

wow guys

its simple, u roam and you want the most stats, furious.

you wana do the most dmg? superior sharpening stones

There is a drop off with critical damage EVEN WHILE assuming 100% critical chance after certain amount of power(not roaming power, im talking 3.8k~4.2k, which i normally have when zerg busting on my dps warrior)

Choppy.4183:

minion.1987:

could make the axe 3 a chain pull that immobilized instead of cripple.

Yeah, I remember that being discussed about a year ago or so. It’s an interesting alternative that would provide warriors with a tool they don’t already have.

That said, I’d personally prefer to leap into a cluster of targets or leap out when needed, than pull one or more targets to me (especially with all the stability around).

actually we used to be able to do that in old days

with 2 points in tactics for immobilize on cripple

pretty much all on point

when they previously reword the crack shot mastery(which was need to have piercing on all skills), they made volley and killshot baseline piercing and removed piercing from auto attack on rifle.

this is very sad honestly very sad. if anyone working for anet is looking at this. Lets try to solver problems step by step and if you like, we can start with this issue.

thank you for your patience

Can we please have this back?

Can we please have pierce back for rifle? be it in the trait crack shot(will make it worthwhile to choose this then).

Thanks

it should be the better value since u get an additional 100 thoughness

i did test this many times BUT BUT this is good for builds used in meta but if you want ultimate damage, ur better off @ 6% power utility since it scales better with more power and 25 might/25 bloodlust etc.

i agree

shouts need to heal ATLEAST 1750 base.

you fight a skilled daredevil with proper gear you will be rekt

you fight a skilled druid with proper gear you will be rekt

you fight a any spams a lot dragonhunter you should be dead and rekt

you fight a pro dragon hunter, u will always die

no one wants you in wvw except for your banner

no one wants your gimmick 1k heals(shouts)

banner boi

anet is marvelous, they lower our output damage(if you havent noticed this, you dont have rights to reply. just compare old youtube videos(not 2-3 yrs ago) but atleast 1.5 yrs back)

they lower our heals(output), they took out banner trait for cd/dmg.

they gave us adrenal health which wasnt needed and most warriors now run defense(if you dont think this is true, then you most likely belong in the non most warriors kthanxbai)(which needs a nerf btw, probably in berserker mode with the aoe spam)

yes they do need to nerf other classes as well, lower output damage on some skills on thieves, lower sustain on classes like druids and scrappers(but really they cant give a good warrior a good fight anymore(adrenal health op))

nerf dragonhunter, i dont know how honestly(change multipliers wink))

the end

- banner boi

oh p.s: i feel bad for mesmers..yes even the dire ones

give dmg back..(slowly being nerfed since jun 19th 2015)

nerf berserker primal burst in conjunction with adrenal health(i.e grant 1 stack of adrenal health on burst during berserker mode)

increase shout heals

cd reduction trait for banners

oh and the biggest of all..give warriors mobility.

lol

easy

dura is best

who cares about pack? only thing pack is offering to warriors is swiftness

gs f1 skill=fury

berserker mode=fury

pls dont tell me you dont use f1 lvl 1 burst(normal)

warrior is in a bad place in my honest opinion

Hey guys i just made this video

please check it out :d

If you like it, well ‘like it’

subscribe if you want to see more of this in the future.

human male is assassins armor + weapon + 1 trinket assassins

charr warrior is zerk armor

thanks!

as a little side note of reality

daredevils will kill you

dragon hunters will eat you

druids will out heal and out damage you

condi reaper will kill you

some tips on how to beat such classes

run tank condition build with good output of burst of condition and pressure, try not to have a downtime.

try to proc adrenal ez mode health on dragonhunters and out regen them

for thieves, try to have many interrupts as possible

rule number 1, dont design a build to counter classes

rule number 2, never back down

Loading.4503:

Have you tried full zerker with gs lb with berserker line? It’s pretty fun, aoes everywhere all day:)

Yeah i have when i feel like just tagging people for dem bags

Elegie.3620:

You’re doing what I always wanted to do but never dared to: full zerk in WvW guild runs… my guild commander would never have agreed. I’m jealous

Liked it. As for the suggestions: longer videos would be nice; possibly GvG excerpts if you’re doing some. Cheers.

I had lots of gvg recorded but lost my password for old youtube and have them set to private

i have a gvg clip from before adrenal health on my current account.(go to my channel)

yes i do understand the part of a commander wanting you not to run zerk armor. I say if you can live on it easily then just go out there and prove it! it was very hard for me to find groups willing to accept the way i am.

honestly though you can just slap on dura runes on your full zerk set and you should be fine. (I use scholar runes btw)

Hello all!!

my montage for wvw.

It is a bit or rather much different kind of video than most people.

This is how i enjoy warrior and what motivates me to always play it. I have been running glass since forever in zergs. (yes even when warrior was worst after all nerfs)

Any tips/suggestions? anything you guys or gals would like to see in the future?

thanks!!!
