Guild Wars 2

Ummm… have you tried reading your combat log ? It tells you the damage you took…

Umm @Wombat, yes 99% of sPvP players DO need to learn to play…thats a fact …

@Fynd I also listed a lot of other classes mechanics that work, If you want a list of necro skills you can use to get out of devourer, basalisk and/or become invunerable here is one.

Plague signet (transfer immobolize to him/others)
Death shroud (tank the damage or fear them)
Wurm teleport (teleport)
Spectral Walk (break stun)
Signit of Spite (for the blind)
Spectral Armor (break stun)
Well of Power (convert immobolize)
Staff 5 (fear them)
Deathly Swarm (blind + transfer immobolize)

Exactly Noctred, I think the issue here is lack of experience/skill not lack of balance within instagib builds.

Umm it removes basalisk tho, which is the most common thing to hit you in backstab builds…and lots of classes have condi removal skills and invunerable skills, you can for example mist form even if you can’t move it still mitigates all the incoming damage OR you can go into water attune remove condi and run away… there are lot’s of ways to avoid backstab damage.

In fact I do not know of a single good thief who even uses devourer in theirbackstab build the most common utilities are Shadow signet, Assassins signet and either Shadow refuge or haste. Even if they did swap out for devourer like I said either way an instant mistform will remove the basalisk OR make you immune to the backstab, same goes for endure pain or guardian elite/aegis or thief blink or mesmer blink etc. etc.

5 man mesmer team, portal’s up on all points, zerg>port>zerg>port>zerg, don’t even have to kill anything ? Would not work…you may as well of also said “Pets, illusions and summons should also count towards decapping” …you just didnt think about how much this would destroy the game before posting.

“I don’t care if the cooldown on some insta-gib chain is a day and a half. I don’t care if the person insta-gibbing is a glass cannon or not, it simply shouldn’t exist.”

If you removed glass cannon completly, you would also have to remove bunkers, and high condi classes and all you would have is the same build on every class, sustained dps with moderate survivability.

You really want a game designed around everyone being and using the same build so that every fight is infinite ?? I dunno if you ever played a sustain dps vs a sustain dps in 1v1, like s/d support ele vs s/d support ele but I can have fights that last longer than map times… and both of us are at the top of our game so its not even a skill issue.

You cannot remove “instagib” builds, but you can learn to not die to them, I havnt died to a backstab thief since the first time one hit me, as soon as you learn the warning signs backstab is coming, or get some good reactions on your “stun break” once you are venomed its not even an issue…same goes for 100b, pistolwhip and any other glass cannon you want to moan about.

@DesertRose
Exactly, the ele wasnt made to be a full DPS class, if you spec it to full DPS that is your choice it shouldnt be “comparable” to a class made for dps, imagine the same logic backwards, you should be able to make support warriors as strong as ele ??? no, just no.

Each class has specific class roles, that doesn’t mean they cant do other roles but an offspec role is never going to compare to another classes main spec…

Also ele does require skill…it is the truth, the amount of good ele’s I have seen in tPvP is minimal, the amount of “Genuine Teldo” engineers who manage to hold points easy is vast in comparison to the amount of good eles in the game…

No I am not a troll… 2300 IS NOT a lot, my ele build has 3200 armor… thats almost an extra 1000, 2300 is basically default, you probably arnt using valkeryies amulet and still rely on beserker in your build to output damage.

If you think 2300 armor is going to stop you getting mass amounts of damage from burst builds you don’t know what you are talking about.

You will probably come back at me like “who the hell are you, some random noob from pvp”. Well I am a player in a team capable of beating (or holding our own 450+ to 500) top teams on desolation server including but not limited to. Oo (Origne Online) TP (Team Paradigm) MS (Mace Stun) RSL (Receeding Skill Line). You will probably then come back at this saying “Yea right, random scrub”. So I don’t know why I am trying because no matter what I say you will ignore it and dismiss my answer because that’s how people on the internet work, but trust me when I say 2300 is tiny, its basically glass cannon. The difference between 2300 and 3000+ is MASSIVE.

Oh and fyi, I main ele and have done since alpha…

If you drain out the water its a default 3 point map…hows that interesting …

If you are fighting a player who misses it, then you really shouldnt complain it should be SO easy to not get hit by it if he doesnt do it immediatly…hell its super easy to avoid the backstab combo when done perfectly let alone when someone screws it up …

Umm it does remove stealth, the only thing’s that do not remove stealth when in combat are certain aoe spells like sbow 4 venom… Topic Closed

No it really doesn’t, you clearly arn’t watching for gaining points cause no1 else in the world has this issue… its not a “bug”.

You are so wrong its unbelievable…in order to get score from killing a player all you need to do is hit them like 2-3 times…you don’t even need high damage as long as you tagged the player somehow, dps, cc, etc.

If you arn’t getting score it means you are doing nothing to the enemy player which means you are playing your support build 100% wrong.

Ok so things like halloween tonics, all mini pets (but specifically the halloween ones I just bought) I would like these to work in HoM, as a PvP only player a lot of content I could still enjoy like pets and zombies and ghosts etc I am unable to do at my usual hangout (the mists) with my fellow PvP friends.

Also as a side note, please allow bunny ears to be used as a head item skin in pvp including tPvP I love bunny ears >.< (No for real I would pay like 10,000 gems for a skin swap item for head piece to get bunny ears in PvP)

Oh also can you put a jumping puzzle in HoM thanks!

I agree with Sanis
