“I think sword and longbow are both good weapons, which is why the changes take longer.”
When it comes to PvE the longbow is a decent weapon when used at maxed range however you do come across the “Obstructed” message once in awhile even though you have a clear line of sight.
As in PvP and WvW it has several major issues. To get the max damage of the longbow the player must stand at max range. This is fine if you opponent is standing still but that is never the case. Your opponent dose not even have to dodge to avoid your attacks. By simply side step spamming left and right they can avoid being hit. This makes the skill rapid fire nearly pointless to use cause a player doesn’t have to dodge to avoid a majority of the attack. Even with the use of traps and the point blank shot most classes can close the gap between them and a longbow ranger no matter the effort the ranger puts into kiting their opponent. In WvW the longbow only gets its most use from standing at an elevated position such as a tower wall. Barrage is the only useful skill and point blank shot is only useful depending on the situation as its potential only shines if an opponent is on a level or decline surfaced. Though sometime you do catch an opponent near the edge of a high cliff and can one shot them off it.
Compared to the warrior longbow skills the ranger skills are quite bland.
The only suggestion I can come up with that can fix issues is see in the longbow without revamping the skills is to increase the trait Eagle Eye to 10% and increasing the flight speed of arrows so a player cannot simply side step to dodge them.
As a ranger traited into getting the max benefits out of using bows I can simply say that longbows are not a “good weapon”.
The FoV seems to be around 60 and that all good if your playing from several feet away from the monitor but since most of us are actually very close to the screen it can and has cause motion sickness and headaches for some people. The games FoV should be allowed to scale to at least 90 degree. This is a real issue for many people and should warrant attention from developers. Even though there are people on the “Everything is Fine QQ Train” doesn’t mean this is not a problem for some people.
They already know about this issue. It has already been posted and that post was locked. ArenaNet wants you to report the exploits not make them public.
as she sets up her cannon. This event is not working correctly, Footi is nowhere in the area. I even search the surrounding area looking for her and couldn’t find her. So the event has been stuck at 0% progress for a few days now making it impossible to do Grenth.
Seems poorly design if the leader of the group is the only one receiving credit. If the personal story requires a group to complete it then the group should all get credit and allowed to view the cut scenes. Basically as at the moment the other four players going in to Arah to finish the story will be disappointed to find out that they have to start a group of their own to finish it. Once people find out that only the team leader gets credit it is going to be harder to find people to do the story mode.
I have just completed Arah in story mode doing the Victory or Death part of my personal story. After completion and leaving the dungeon I notice that my Personal story did not update. Is this a bug, intentional, or did I miss talking to some npc?
Reflective light, atmosphere, material of armor, and other elements can make dyes look different colors. The black leather I wear will have a bluish tint to it during a clear night sky when the moon light is hitting off it. The armor is black but the light it is reflecting isn’t. Even My black widow spider doesn’t appear all black, it is reflecting light causing to look multiple colors. It is black but the light coming off it isn’t.
Trying to do the story mode and couldn’t get in through the pop up message. Got in by walking up to the portal but the group all ended up in different instances.
I am no longer receiving level appropriate loot from chest. At level 80 I am receiving constantly level 26 gear from zone completions, boss fights, and jumping puzzles. Is this working as attended? I thought loot from rewards were suppose to scale?
I keep seeing guild tags flickering on players. Guild tag would be on the right side of the players name and then appear under the players name. This will go back and forth. I find it to be a real eye soar.
There are no inherent rights to freedom of speech and expression in the private sector. Please brush up on your understanding of the Bill of Rights, especially the First Amendment (applicable if you’re in the US, like ANet. Though I’m sure you could get them to use your home country’s laws). ANet has authoritarian control over everything that goes on within the confines of their business, this includes their games. You agree to such when you click through the EULA and RoC.
I’ll report and block because in the end it’s up to ANet to decide if rules were broken. But, according to your argument up above, I guess since I’m not straight I can go screaming that certain “f” word in all caps while running around in WvW and not expected to get banned. Because if they can say it, so can I! Flawless logic!
That’s right, but be prepared to be blocked by everyone. If you annoy enough people, you will realize that no one responds to you because you are blocked, therefore making it hard to make friends, or getting events done if you can’t communicate with others.
A majority of players do not go around cursing and making racial slurs in open chat. If a person is blocked because of such remarks it is safe to say that the person doing the blocking dose not want to be friends with the offenders. In a game were you are playing with thousands of others I hardly see how your hypothesis would be accurate.
