Guild Wars 2

Shtark.7250:

I do agree on many things you said, but not all of them:
1) The range is ridiculous as it is, why? Because if you have a more or less good build, and by that i don’t even mean a glass cannon build, take for example the one i stated in my post (not saying it’s good, i’m saying it worked for me at least), I was disrupting the mid teamfights with easy, even more, if a meele class tries to catch me, i just shadowstep away, keep shooting, when he gets near, shadowstep back, keep shooting, stealth, etc. The idea of range, is that you don’t do as much damage as meele since you have an advantageous position, but in this case, you have range and heavy damage.
2) As I described in the post, the delay on the stealth attack works well if you use it, and immediatly use another skill, since both skills will arrive at the target roughly at the same time, ensuring that he will not have enough time to react to it, and land 2 skills at the same time. But I can see the point tour point in the proyectile being slow.
3) The playstyle of the class is not meant to be like the regular meele thief (fast phased), for DE you have to be patient most of the time, and I assure you, it pays off, if you want to expand on this, check the “1v1” part of the post.
4) The cantrips, as you said, are meh, I only used 2, Shadow Meld and Shadow Gust, the other ones I found very useless, at least for the build I was going for.
5) The cast time for Sniper cover/Kneel, was not a problem at least for me, if you move cleverly you can confuse most enemies, I detailed more of this in the post I made.
6) The stolen being removed when the mark goes away is stupid as you said, it makes no sense at all, I hope it gets revised
Finally) I hear many people complaining about the class being underpowered, wich completely opposes to my experiences with it, actually, I’m VERY positive that it will recive some nerfs on many aspects of it before or shortly after release.

Sorry if I quote my post a lot, I sound like a advertisement lol, but I went over almost all the important points and aspects of the class/build with a lot of detail, and it took me quite some time, so I don’t really want to write all that again.

Yeah I think we agree on a lot of things, although I will say that some of my issues may not be prevalent in Spvp but more so in Wvw. I tried DE in Battle of Khylo and loved it. WvW is significantly more open and has more lag issues than Spvp due to the number of players on the map at one time. Thus skills like Kneel seem a lot slower due to skill lag etc. Maybe thats more of an issue with the servers than the class though. I think it just comes down to WvW and SPvp being a different animal all together. .

It sounds like we were playing different classes altogether, I’m gonna link a post a made some days ago if you wanna check it out, I explain things with much more detail there, but to sum it up, I played a large amount of matches during the preview weekend with DE, I think around 100 or so, I can easily say that I did not find myself stressing over anything that you guys stated above:
Rifle does insane amounts of damage, I’ve been able to bring down druids/necros/guard in around 10 seconds if they were not careaful, I was doing 3,5k crits with autoattack, and around 13k with Judgment.
Defensively, I’ve never been caught a single time when I did things right, I do kitten up here and there with skills (hitting a target while trying to get away in stealth, etc) and end up getting killed, but aside from those, I literally left even daredevils in the dust trying to catch me using stealth, shadowstep and retreat. For a detailed explanation please read the Defense part of the post that I made.
POST: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/thief/Deadeye-Build-Thoughts/first#post6714664

I concur and your experiences much like my own. I did not find surival as bad as being stated as there ample stealth and other utility to effect such.

But even there are a few necessary fixes I hope we all can agree on.
A trait for cantrip CD reduction for example. The CD’s are not low, and hardly justified for their effect (just think about healing skill…which is simply not worth taking at all). As addition to one in the chamber for example.
Personally I believe any cast time on kneel and mark destroys any flow, and I’d rather see them removed completely.
Some tweaks are also necessary, maybe thinking about the initiative for example, or velocity of the projectiles (and especially cursed bullet).
And malice…I think malice should also affect conditions (maybe not in terms of damage but…something) right now it’s doing nothing.
Also personally malice builds up too slow.
Furthermore I think it is unnecessary to remove all malice stacks AND stolen when your enemy dies/moves too far. Maybe a kind of over time removal, just like adrenaline of warrior (maybe not that fast).
Range should also be addressed. Increasing from 1200 to 1500 and kneeling too 1750 or even 1800, or 1200 mobile and 1750 while kneeling. It is…disappointing, that a Soulbeast can burst better at 1500 than a deadeye.
Last point, and most controversial I guess, I believe kneel should be sniper’s cover untraited. Maybe replace this with a cantrip reduction trait.
I hope there was no salt included.

Thanks for the feedback folks. I think there are definitely some things that we can agree on. I honestly didn’t spend much time messing with condition specs as I did not feel that it would be Viable with how the stolen skills are and how much investment is required to make them work. I’ll definitely look more into on release. I can say that Deadeye in Spvp plays a little differently than in WvW, my guess would be due to the variety of different stat combo’s and sigils etc that you can put together.

Hi everyone,

Here are my thoughts on the Deadeye, with youtube video included! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZIW_vwXP4Z8&feature=youtu.be
TLDR
Stolen Skills need adjusting/buffing. Would like to see self cast instead of requiring a target.
The class needs more defensive options as it is easy to get jumped on.
The 3rd trait in each tier needs to be adjusted to stolen skills as they do not work very well.
Love how the class plays in small group fights. Doesnt work well for roaming solo or zergs.
May have some use in PVE with the malice mechanic but it is overall slow in WvW

What do you guys think?

Thanks.

It’s only 3 days, suck it up.

This is true but im sure it will be frustrating for a lot of players.

I was wondering if anyone else has some concerns about the elite spec’s only being available for testing in WvW and PvP this weekend? As an Avid WvW player, Queue timers have become a problem lately since the PVP update patch. This is a great thing for the game mode but I am concerned that folks that enjoy the game mode may not get to test the specs this weekend because of the inevitable long queue timers. Especially on high population servers.

Hey guys,

Thought I would post a picture of some of the merchandise that already exists out there (all be it pretty rare)

Gw2 T shirt, Bandana and Shattered Figurine. I also have all the art books but those are nothing new. I would love to see a white Hoodie with the red GW2 logo on it or maybe a beanie.

Lucente.5071:

Azureflame , same as the pic posted today. I also have fractal longbow and shadow longbow incase I change my mind. Might also go with wings if dwayna

I asked this on the wrong thread to re-posting it.

The question I have is will I still be able to pick 2 master traits instead of a grandmaster trait in the same line. I.e Indominable Courage and Absolute resolution in the virtues trait line or will the new system only allow one major trait of each tier?

Based on the image below, I am assuming the answer is no. If that’s the case it seems like we are limiting build diversity by streamlining it rather than keeping open options.

Gnarled walking staff and norn T3 Chest. Both in game already.

Hey Guys,

Thanks for the feedback! Glad to post them up, (usually once a month)

Kande.1930:

Nice work. Would you mind posting your build? I was trying to guess it last night just from watching the video. I didn’t notice empathic bond going off so i’m guessing either 6/6/2 or 6/6/0/2. Usual longbow traits, quickdraw, trap potency. Oh and trapper runes obviously. As far as gear goes, I’m guessing full zerk. You definitely have more guts than I do. I don’t set foot in wvw without empathic bond or SotF.

Here is the build as requested:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNAQNAT8YjEqUua9KOsQ1ag9gadAUAndreg9FMCpQJrYJ-TVCEABcv/ABXAgEV/ZLlgMp8zgHAQb6GA4gA8wRAIAACwNvZ2sNDO6RP6RP6R7m38m38m3sUAmrMC-w

Piercing arrows can replace eagle eye and primal reflexes can replace sharpened edges depending on the situation.

Hey guys,

New month, new roaming video. A couple of 2v2’s and 3vs2’s this time around with some guild members. As always comments and feedback is always welcome.

Enjoy!

http://youtu.be/JJI-r9bcZjs

If I might interject on this one Cough

So I have to agree with my man Kag on this one to a certain extent… The heal scaling on guardian is pretty god awful. If you want to increase your DPS Kag’s method is definitely the way to go! Guard power scaling isn’t that great either, you will see a much bigger increase by going crit chance and Ferocity to a certain point.

As far as Healing Breeze goes. I have to disagree, HB is a phenomenal under rated group heal. There have been countless occasions in my roaming team, where a well placed HB can help win a fight. Literally use it on the person that is being focused combined with boons such as Prot and Stab it makes it very difficult to bring down the target. I’d recommend checking out some of my video’s on youtube for support guard play in WvW.

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ17QbAvHRWSxPUgcz-FpoA

In my experience (and I have a lot of it) I would say that the only time you want to stack healing power on a guard is if you are going to say kitten all offense and go full on support. Meaning base Power, base Precision and base Ferocity, because at this point the stats are so low you might as well not bother wasting points in it to see no return. If your OK with hitting for about 100 damage but being able to support and sustain your group then its the way to go. If your not ok with that then Kag’s method is the right choice IMO.

Hey guys,

Thought I’d share some clips of my Support Guard in WvW since there are quite as few topics around the subject of guardians in havok squads. This is my Full Support build designed to aid the rest of the squad. Let me know what you think! There are several more videos on my channel but this one is my favourite.

Enjoy.

Here’s my Sylvari Guard

The poison is very strong, especially against the regen warriors. The issue is that I have no stability and against a hammer warrior, getting in that close can be very dangerous If its not timed properly.

Yeah its a decent build and I enjoy the kiting style that comes with it. You guys are right though I could use barrage more. Against a build like the S/W shout heal warrior its tough to put down enough consistent damage to stop the HP regen until the next burst. The low cool down gap closers were tough to deal with also.

Hey Guys,

First off I’d like to say thank you for all the comments and feedback on the previous video. Hopefully this one surpasses the last one.

http://youtu.be/TRP8lJYK2Us

Gotejjeken.1267:

I think it is sub-optimal because of the way the game works. LB is a ‘power weapon’, if you stick that with condition skills or traits you end up losing effectiveness.

This is not to say you can’t hybridize. I myself run with ~1900 power on a condition heavy build (~1750 condition damage in WvW with food / buffs). The problem lies with the weapon itself.

It is sort of like taking torch on a power build. Sure it would function, but you also are not gaining nearly as much as you would by just taking a ‘power weapon’.

We forum users also know how to mess with builds and min/max. The average LB Trapper just throws flame trap or something in with trapper runes, a bear, and a LB.

I think that is a fair statement. It is not as optimal as it could be, you certainly lose a lot of stats by using the trapper runes. However there is something to be said for the level of survivability and kite potential it provides. Ranger isn’t really designed for close combat unless you specifically spec for it or condi. Therefore whatever you can do to keep the distance between you and your opponent is ultimately going to be an advantage.

I just want to say thanks to everyone for providing the feedback and being able to have a respectful discussion on the subject. Not often found in these parts.

I can understand that. In reality there are not many weapon choices for Power Rangers. Granted SB/LB is a poor combination because its so easy for other classes to shut down the DPS.

Now to say that its a poor build because peoples skill level is different doesnt mean the build is bad. The people that use metabattle and copy builds 9/10 times dont understand the mechanics or qwerks behind them that make builds sucessful. Other times theres just strait hard counters, in this case heavy condi pressure. Dont get me started on bears……

Tricare.2946:

I’m not even going to comment on the duels.

In the 3v3’s if that group was even half way smart, they would have targeted you and you’d be dead every time. You have zero escapes from stun lock.

For the most part you are right, if they changed who they focused the fight would be different. While I dont have any way of getting through a stun lock. The key is to be pro active and not get locked in the first place. I wouldnt be running SB/LB if I had been focused in the previous 3 rounds thats for sure.

Ranger has plenty of escapes with sword/traps to keep people away. If I had been focused, I have enough tools to kite while the other 2 members of my team CC or kill the other. If not I can add more by changing moa for spider, adding Ice sigil or hunters instinct (14 sec cripple @ 50% HP).

Every build has a counter. For me, other pewpew rangers or P/D condi thieves are tough.

I forgot to mention that I was running SB/LB in the 3v3 matchups. I am suprised no one caught that and started trolling lol. A simple WoR would have been a pain in the butt.

As far as the back piece goes, yes a zerker one would be better but I personally like the number of stats that the celestial one gives and doesnt affect my dps in a significant way.

shadowpass.4236:

I’m going to take a stab at your build.

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNAQNBjYDbkQlyVrXxhFqWDsHUrDgC4sb1DsH4RIFKZU7A-TlCEABcv/QsKBZS5nBPAAWU/pDdDAcEAO4CA8wBBIMTQBAQA4oDdn38nJFAYLjA-w

Is that it?
I was 10 off of your health pool.

Traits I noticed:

Marksmanship
– Read the Wind
– Eagle Eye
– Steady Focus
- No Signet Mastery

Skirmishing
– Trap Potency
– Quick Draw
- Primal Reflexes

Wilderness Survival
– Shared Anguish
– No Offhand Training
– No Martial Mastery

Not bad! Your pretty close. I use a Celestial back piece to round off the stats. I could use zerk but the difference is minimal. Food is Omnomberry Ghost for the crit + lifesteal/true damage although I do use the nopales from time to time as it intensifies the soft CC. Other pet is Wolf. Moa for the 100% fury up time when combined with WH. Spider is also good for the imobilize

Yeah I feel the same way. We have been on GoM since day 1 of the game. The problem is that the GoM community want to go a different direction to our guild. We want to be competitive in WvW and go to T4 amd beyond but the community wants to be in bronze league.

We are actually on NA. We used to be #1 guild on GoM and transferred to Yaks Bend Last week. I work till 3am CST so I dont get online till about 4am CST. :P

Hi guys,

I felt like sharing some escapades from last night in OS. A couple of 1v1 duels and some 3v3’s with TBT guild from Fort Aspenwood. Let me know what you think!

http://youtu.be/_bktaWFV5Y0

I Tried the greatsword out last night. Honestly I quite like the balance of it. No issues landing Maul, especially from stealth! The block is awesome against ranged burst as the counter attack doesnt proc. The interrupt is sweet too. I do miss the evades though.

So to clarify this is most definitely for WvW focus, mainly roaming. Running a 6/6/0/2/0 zerk/celest combo. The issue with sword for me is the animation, for example sword or warrior you can walkk around and swing through the full combo where as you cant do that with ranger. The animation starts and you are locked into the distance you are traveling. Handy when chasing but not in a brawl.

Any thoughts on other off hand weapons to pair with the sword?

Hi there fellow Rangers,

I was hoping to get some feedback on which weapon set to use in conjunction with the Longbow. I have been playing with S/W for a while now and the buff thay came this week are really nice. However whenever I switch to this set from my LB, I cant help but feel Im forced on the defensive.

I have been experimenting with GS lately and I like the balance between offense and defense. My question is, which is more functional?

S/W Pro’s
– Can blast your own water field
– Can leap in your water field for extra healing
– Average Disengage
– Extra evade on Sword 3
– Gives Fury and Swiftness

S/W Cons
– Lack of mobility on auto attack
– Long Cooldowns (even after the buff)
– Low damage

Greatsword Pros
– Mobile Auto Attack
– Good Dps
– Shorter Cooldowns
– 1100 Range Leap
– Block Skill on 4
– Stun/ Daze on 5

Greatsword Cons
– No Blast Finisher
– No Fury/Swiftness

So what do you guys think?

Lucente.5071:

Lol i should have known this was you Captain Salty! At the end of the day guys its random, although different types of content are more likely to give you one. For example, if all you do is run dungeons all day, there is such a small chance you will get one as the type of loot you receive and #mobs killed is much lower than if your a hardcore WvW Zerg Buster like myself. To anyone that wants one that badly, your best bet is WvW. Most of my precursor drops have been from players in wvw and most of the precursors my friends and guild have received are also from WvW.

Well, I have 30k+ wvw kills and several of my friends got ultimate dominator a year ago. None of us have ever gotten a precursor. The fact that you got several is not due to better drop chances in WvW, it’s because you are lucky. And since you mainly play WvW, I would assume that most of your friends do too. So it’s no wonder that if some of them were to get a precursor, chances are high that it would be from WvW. Just like a bunch of PvE players are more likely to get their from PvE.

No matter what mode you are playing, it’s down to luck. It’s easy for those who have dropped precursors to be smug about it. They don’t know the frustration that comes along with having invested 3k+ hours into this game without ever dropping one. And to those saying no one should feel “entitled” to a precursor: You know what? After 3000 hours, i kinda do feel i deserve one.

I’ve crafted two legendaries and am almost done with the 3rd, but that doesn’t make me any less of a sad panda about the unfair mess that is precursor drops.

Its not about WvW having a better drop rate than any PVE game mode, its the fact that you are rolling the loot table more times because of the number of players that you are killing VS The small number of Mobs that are actually killed in a dungeon run. Take AC for example, the number of mobs actually killed in an AC run is very very low. Now granted there are other things to PvE besides dungeons. I completely agree its down to luck, I even said that in my original post. The simple fact of the matter is the more you roll the loot table the more chances you have to get one and WvW is one of the best ways to roll the loot table in my opinion.

eleshazar.6902:

3000 hours, 575 days played, 850g in gambled rares/exotics, no precursor.

So in all seriousness: Is there an estimated timeline for the precursor scavenger hunt? We were told it would be here by end of 2013, it is almost a full year later (over a year after the announcement) and full silence from Anet. Can we get an update on this? Or if it is even on the radar anymore? The prices of pres has gone through the roof, and I after everytime that I gamble away more than 300g in the forge with nothing I contemplate quitting because I’m so upset (I do log out for the night). I’m a loyal customer, but this seems a bit ridiculous.

Lol i should have known this was you Captain Salty! At the end of the day guys its random, although different types of content are more likely to give you one. For example, if all you do is run dungeons all day, there is such a small chance you will get one as the type of loot you receive and #mobs killed is much lower than if your a hardcore WvW Zerg Buster like myself. To anyone that wants one that badly, your best bet is WvW. Most of my precursor drops have been from players in wvw and most of the precursors my friends and guild have received are also from WvW.

I would not add guild zones to the existing map as you are limiting expansion potential for new pve zones on the map. If anything a guild hall should be like a block of flats. Each account in the guild gets a flat, and there is a communal meeting place in the middle with all necessary amenities (merch, TP, Bank etc)

Id love a gw2 bandana skin in the gem store for a similar price to the sailors beanie. I loved the gw1 bandana, shame you cant get one any more unless you have the bad female norn hair with it.

First off I’d like to say that I genuinely love the idea of the siege disabler trap. It allows for an easier defense against a large team and can be the deciding factor to the keep/tower being taken or defended.

However, I hate to say it but it is a pretty OP part of WvW right now. 3 or 4 defenders can literally hold an objective endlessly against a team because there is no cooldown on the disabler and encourages PvD play. For example a waypointed keep with 1500 supply are 10x harder to take now than they were before because the siege can be endlessly disabled until the enemy team can port into the keep.

I would propose adding a 60 second Cooldown to the trap so it cannot be spammed by 1 defender endlessly. Still allowing 15 secs for the siege to work but holding the enemy at bay for 45 seconds.

Thoughts? comments?

Add the microsoft paperclip to the new player leveling experiance.

“I see your trying to auto attack, do you need some help with that?”

up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, A, B, START!

I agree with Rimmy, This is a change that was asked for over and over and over on these forums because quite frankly a server shouldn’t be able to hold a keep by death rushing and resurrecting the lord over and over. It becomes a war of attrition at that point which puts the attacking side at a huge disadvantage, especially if the keep has a waypoint. It is a positive addition to the game, especially for servers rank 13 and below that don’t have the huge blob running 24 hours a day.

Id love an APP that tracks the HP of every member of your squad, With boons etc.

Oh boy, they don’t stack? >.< That definitely needs to be addressed.

And since they’re account bound anyway, ANet, can’t you just make them give you +20 levels instead of raising you to level 20? Seriously, anybody who’s been around for 2 years (or even 1 year) is more than likely already going to be higher level than that. And if they haven’t created new characters by this point, I doubt a new scroll is going to tip them over the line.

+1 for this

Congrats in Karma Training for a year strait. We have found the leader of the brain dead zombie zerg.

Also Dat Pro Build Tho.

Hi team,

First off thank you so much for updating the commander system. As an avid WvW player this is something that will greatly help change the tactics that are employed on maps.

My question is what is Anets stance on squads? Can we expect some improvements to this outdated and rarely used system also?

As a driver for my guild it would be great to see everyones health bars during a fight. Maybe allowing 25 hp bars in simple UI would help make a decision of wither to push or retreat a little easier.

What is the communities thougts on this?

Thanks.

You dont think green will blend im with the map and terrain to much?
