PvP rewards!

PvP rewards – Clicking is out of control.

From 1 match I got:
3x daily chests, 2x pvp potion, 1x transmutation charge, 2 lucky envelopes, 5 luck, 3 reward track boxes, 2 small loot boxes and 2 loot bags

All contents sold that’s 32s15c.. 38 left mouse clicks for that..
Opening the odd chest is okay but spamming left click for utter trash is just plain annoying.
Please condense reward chests!

P.S – Anet can I send a bill for the 2 gaming mice I’ve worn out since buying gw2?

I’ve been with many people like you lot here in arenas.
All i did see is that, you people are the most toxic due to your way of trying to justify everything around and flaming people you believe are bad or do not do things to your liking.

The people I’ve blocked personally have all been team flamers/ verbal abusers and trolls.
I always say gg and give advice if needed, please don’t tar me with the toxic brush.

I can't play with keybinds

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: MarkusParkus.8467

MarkusParkus.8467

Mine are pretty simple, only got a 5 button mouse (normal +2 thumb buttons)
Thumb button 1 – elite skill
Thumb button 2 – dodge
Q utility skill #9 – teleport
E utility skill #8 – condi cleanse
V – utility skill #7 – stunbreaker

IMO you don’t need a 10,000 button mouse to play well, just add keys to bindings as you feel comfortable with more.

Build for Roaming in wvw.

in Mesmer

Posted by: MarkusParkus.8467

MarkusParkus.8467

Hey Hairyste and welcome to roaming Mesmer!
I’ve used variants of this build for over 1 year now, great all rounder and even works with minimal changes for S/Tpvp!
http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-N;4VPVz087cV-71;9;4JT9-909-0392;32;0L-3FS;1m9fgm9fgn-FW0-g2g;1V1-6WCXI2R3X_7s-Gc3B0;4F2-oFYDo;9;9;9;9;7V8-6H

Have won 1v4 and many other outnumbered fights with this, hardcounter is condi/regen warrior, don’t often meet a good one though!
I swap compounding power for precise wrack in Tpvp and occasionally change Mass invis for Moa.

If Sw/P doesn’t suit you as second set, have a look at the video in my signature for an older Sw/T variant, IMO Centaur runes are outplayed by Traveler if you can afford them.

How can a slower player contribute?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: MarkusParkus.8467

MarkusParkus.8467

Hey Breidr and welcome back! As suggested Guardians make very new player friendly chars, easy to level and built right they can fulfill support or DPS roles, Guardian was my first char for learning the basics!
Please remember though.. When leveling a character the early levels can be very different from the latter ones, Mesmer is horrible to level and feels useless until you have most of the trait point but its still my main class!

Ranger might be a good choice with the recent buffs! pet micromanagement can also be something that you learn slowly.

Key bindings are a godsend too, you don’t need an expensive 99button gaming mouse, just try build around your keyboard hand.

If you’re on EU then feel free to PM me for practice pvp duels.
Good luck and have fun!

What QoL Changes would you like to see?

in Mesmer

Posted by: MarkusParkus.8467

MarkusParkus.8467

Portal – Have some sort of range indicator so I can tell if I’m out of range to place a proper exit portal.
Blink – Sick of being punished on this skills max range due to something with the terrain.

^ This! portal has had terrible QoL for too long now, I usually have to put a personal marker on the minimap to remember where I left the portal entrance!
Also with blink, even a red AoE marker for ‘unblinkable’ places would be nice, I’m sure people will argue l2p but its still a QoL change.
One last thing.. Arcane Thievery not bugging, going on CD at max range, randomly missing and seemingly being blocked by Aegis would be nice.

The teleport change of IL is a nice change, what needs to be fixed is the random going straight on CD at max range and also if the Mesmer could still port after the clone had been shattered as before would be nice.

Why has the recent change ruined MH sword for you though? its less buggy than it was before..

New WvW Map: Farmfest Castle

in WvW

Posted by: MarkusParkus.8467

MarkusParkus.8467

Here is my suggestion: A WvW Map dedicated entirely to farming.

In the center of the map is a castle where a TON of events and champions spawn, for a farm worth about 15-20 Silver /hour.

Fixed that for you I doubt this would really solve any problems.. screwing up the game economy with massive influx of gold and also making WvW even more of a ghost town are the most likely outcomes from this.

TL:DR EU servers how to play on them ?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: MarkusParkus.8467

MarkusParkus.8467

In World Selection there is a dropdown menu on the top right. You can transfer to a World on the other region, but you cannot guest there.

As above the World Selection tool is on your Character selection/creation screen.
Which Server you’re on only really matters for wvw now since the Megaserver has been added for PVE.
I reccomend looking -https://leaderboards.guildwars2.com/en/eu/wvw – here for wvw rankings, I’d pick mid table as queue’s to get into wvw are a problem higher up the table.

Welcome to GW2 and hope you enjoy!
