GM Kveldulf.4790:

To answer your question Deslicious.2547, we don’t normally do this. We only very occasionally make an exception and block an account for this type of behavior. It has to be repeated, and pretty extreme, as is the case here.

Still hasn’t provided any details despite how many times I asked for them.

You answer other people questions but you don’t answer mine, after having offered to provide further explanation.

They didn’t offer. They said talk to support. From what they have twice now, sounds like you have been extremely bad over and over and they are done with you.

And what should we discuss about if they don’t give me any details about which to talk? I’m still asking for details

The only trash talking I do is with my 2 friends with who I do dungeons, and they can testify, since they are fine with that and we have fun.

Again, please provide me with the so called details that were never mailed to me to begin with.

GM Kveldulf.4790:

To answer your question Deslicious.2547, we don’t normally do this. We only very occasionally make an exception and block an account for this type of behavior. It has to be repeated, and pretty extreme, as is the case here.

You answer other people questions but you don’t answer mine, after having offered to provide further explanation.

So ye guys, I have to accept a permanent out of the blue ban because of “bad language” but I’m denied any kind of detail about this “extreme” behavior.

Was it the “pls onichan, you are being too rough” that I sometimes post in map chat and to which people actually jiggle because well, are you seriously going to be offended by that?

Now the reason on the ban was updated, but I still can’t understand what’s going on:

You, GM Kveldulf, said that
1) my acc was “simply” blocked
2) that you updated my ban
3) that you supposedly already sent me an email with details about the ban at the time the account was suspended.
4) That if I wanted additional details or I wanted to discuss it further, to continue via the support mail.

Instead
1) GM Wonder Tree answered me that the account is permanently banned and it’s not a simple block, without responding to my appeal about your own policy about “bad behavior” https://www.guildwars2.com/en/legal/guild-wars-2-conduct-breaches-outcomes/ which usually involves a first temporary 72h ban which serves as a warning
2) You updated the ban which now reads: “Account blocked due to unacceptable behaviour. Please try again after the block has expired” but there is no expire date on the block and Wonder tree confirmed it’s permanent
3) I never received any mail with any details about my ban and I even posted kitten of my most recent mails
4) When I asked for the precise reasons and details, GM Wonder Tree answered me that he couldn’t disclose the details.

Can you please look into this matter better?

“Hello X,

I am not allowed to disclose what was said in the report.
Actions made on account are investigated on a case by case basis and the results of which lead to the account being permanently banned.

Regards,"

If that’s the amount of details you can disclose….

Besides, I did not receive anything at the time of the termination, so I really have no idea on why you banned me and I can’t even make proper appeals if I don’t know what I have to defend myself about. I tried recalling some old debate with randoms, and I got answered that it wasn’t even that, but if I ask further, no details and I just have to accept a permanent ban?

Here the screenshot of my mails:

Sent back a response, since it made no sense.

And yes, I read their misbehave policy, and they supposedly issue a first temporary ban, a second longer ban and a permanent ban in case you breach the rules many times.

In my case, I got permanently banned out of the blue with the reason of “Gold Selling” and the response I get was “because of bad language” which still doesn’t give you permanent ban.

And no, I’ve never been banned in my gw2 history. Not even for 30min.

This is just stupid.

Lol just received this email from gw2support:

“Hello X
I’ve taken a look into your account and from the investigation I have found that your account was blocked due to a violation of our Terms of Service in the form of Bad language. The ban is not available for an appeal and will stand on the account.

Regards,"

…. bad language….. gold selling….. are you…. like…… for real?

and so I get perma-banned for gold selling because it appears someone reported me for bad language (please give SS)?

I see, it toally makes sense. Very

Seera.5916:

Had you just recently sell off a precursor or other such high priced item? If so, was it through the trading post or did you do person to person through the mail?

Or was it a bunch of items that are no longer usable but were sellable on the TP and a bunch of them just sold? The old trait training books are an example. Basically a market that the gold sellers can easily control.

And I would think back for the last 3-6 months for these purchases. Especially if they’re only accusing you of being an accessory to gold selling. Your involvement came in response to someone else being caught gold selling/buying. The incident that got you banned is not likely super super recent.

The highest priced item I’ve ever bought in my 3y was dreamthistle dagger when it was 800g.

The most recent high priced purchase I made was the greatsaw skin for 700g, which I had been wanting for over 2 years (you can still find two of my topics dated back then about them not bringing the greatsaw for two halloween, therefore making it impossible to acquire since unless you spend 4k on TP).

Beside that, there is nothing else. And even thinking back then, I haven’t even responded to gold sellers.

1) If they ban people because they report gold sellers (I’ve reported like 20 in the past 2 months I think, if not more)
2) If they ban people for buying high priced items on the market (still far from buying precursors costing 1.5k)
3) If they ban for creating characters and uplevelling them to 80 with scrolls

then they really need to review their policies. If reporting gold sellers automatically makes me involved with them, fine. I will never again report anything. This way I’m sure I’ve never had anything to do with them, lol.

Jokes aside, there is really nothing that comes to my mind. I can only play 3-4h in the evening and I just run dungeons with old friends for fun (even though they butchered them and they give no rewards) and do dailies and fractals. At the moment I’m doing nothing else.

Oh, and I’m not even selling mats on the TP because I’m accumulating T6 mats, ectos and iron/mithril for bolt. So my sales on TP are limited to stuff I accumulate that I don’t even need (like excess wood/leather I don’t use in my crafting) or to the new gems that sell on TP for ca 25s.

The highest priced item I’ve ever sold was “The anomaly”, but that was like 1-2y ago, when It costed like 70g to make and sold for 100+. If they consider that suspicious activity, then they must have set their threeshold really low lol. What about people flipping TP and having 10k g? kitten , I’m poor as kitten, struggling with 15g/day if I’m lucky -_-

Here I’ll attach one of the most reports I made (sometimes I take screenshots of my reports, just in case someone comes and complains that I’ve reported them). I’ve censored the website they were advertising

PS: You can even see my recently crafted Gift of Mastery. Took SS of that as well, just in case I crashed and lost the item or something else as nasty as that happened.

What a kittenty weekend really, I come back from work, log in and then this thing.

10 characters, all full geared with ascended and 300g away from Bolt. Like really. . .. ..

Do you have any idea of how much time it takes to sort out this kind of things? I submitted a ticket providing all the infos I could.

This is so stupid, like on which criteria do they ban accounts for this reason? So kittened, especially considering I’m 100% innocent and I am just being deprived of game time for no reason for unknown time periods after I paid gw2, HoT and bought gems throughout the 3 years I’ve been playing this game.

I hope it’s a mistake of some sort, since I’ve never dealt with such thing, ever.

I’m actually one of those who consistently report all those goldsellers named ffsgssf spamming and advertising for gold.

The last thing I was doing was looking for someone in lfg for the VB vampire HP. I had just found someone and BAM, disconnect. Then I try to login and that’s what I find.

Thanks for your attention, hoping you can sort this out, since I’m 100% innocent.

Will ele’s fireball still look like trash even after the update :<<<?

I got my toxic shoulders, yay, thank you for caring :P

Now I’d just need one more sale of Electromagnetic-Descender Glider which I missed back then, and I’m set :P

When you start and only have one characters, all things are good and you don’t really need anything from the gemstore. Even bagslots, the 4 slots you have are more than enough if you equip 4 18slot bags.

However, as time goes on and as you notice that you aren’t leaving this game or that everytime you leave, you eventually come back…. and eventually you have 10 lv80 characters full geared, then things will get messy and the best investment is 100% bank slots.

Those are very big additional storage. In 3y I’ve never bought the infinite harvesting tools and I don’t regret it lol. They are simply not worth it. 800 gems is a LOT for something that you can buy ingame and costs only 4s and has 100 uses. Before you got back your investment…
800gems are worth 170g currently, 170g = 17000s. One harvestin tool costs kitten with that money you could buy 17000/4 = 4250 harvestin tools. Each tool has 100 uses, so before you got back your investment you’d need to mine/harvest more than 425k times.

I don’t know if in 3y of playing this game I ever harvested so much stuff

Best investment for gems are bank slots, character slots and the armor/weapon skins that you like. Other than that, I wouldn’t suggest you buying other unnecessary stuff.

So it’s even long since it happened?

I picked up my ele the other day after having played my remaining 6 characters for the past months so I noticed only now.

And now that you mention auras, Chaos Armor looks horrible too. From that very cool looking purple spectral bubble it turned to a barely visible eggline. That was messed up. Revert it back to how it was (which was similar to shield 4th skill)

What is this? Why my fireball looks like a hot needle? Why did you butcher the animation of elementalists so much? God, it feels so awful now.

This is supposed to be the mage class of this mmo, super fragile yet very rewarding damage-wise with flashy OP-looking skills. I mean, just look at FFXIV and BD mage spells, they look like they are going to ruin the world.

This looks completely terrible. Why did you do that? Was it to reduce the clutter and to avoid world/dungeon bosses to look like giant balls of lightning? Well, let me enlighten you: they still look like giant lightning bombs and it’s not going to change. So just give me the OP-flashy skills, I’m not going to see the boss anyways.

Or at least, give me the option to enable super flashy animation graphics for spells. I don’t care about whether I can see the boss. kitten , there is already an option to reduce the clutter and lightning, the ones who want to use it can just check the box, but why do you have to ruin it for everyone else?

bump

Is it viable in pve or is it even inferior to mesmer dps?

A f1-f2 would indeed be nice. Like:
f1: Death Shroud
f2: normal form(whatever)

Instead of Enter/leave Shroud which looks ugly on chart :P

Is there anywhere I can find updated dps charts? I remember back in the days when necro had like 7.5k dps and thief/ele had 11k/12k, but now the situation is waaay different.

With reaper coming into play, dps surely feels higher (when it comes to 25k gravedigger spam in CoE, that’s huge) and with the 3rd autoattack critting as high as 16k when full buffed.

1) Did any of you calculate the current necro dps in dungeons/fractals? And, if you did, how much does the dps differs between autoattacking with GS and dagger? I’ve been playing dagger all this time and it got super-boring; on the other side, I Love the slow but huge hits of GS and the animation as well, so I wanted to know how much I’m loosing in terms of dps by AA with GS (while still keeping on CD the main abilities; I simply don’t switch to dagger but rather use GS AA to fill in the gaps)?

2)Do you know how much dps offers a reaper oriented build Spite/SoulReaping/Reaper with boosted AA on reaper and dhuumfire?
I’ve been using such build for a while and I can be in reaper form for the entire duration of a dungeon encounter (Besides, nowadays bosses in dungeons just melt because dps is on average higher for all classes). This build proves to be very effective in a group that doesn’t provide might, as it selfsustains perma 25 might and 25 vuln on enemy (which also means 100% crit chance for you). Burning can tick as high as 2.5k and the auto is very fast and got big aoe range. When boss reaches 50% hp, I of course switch to GD spam, but till then I just AA on reaper.

Thanks for your attention

I saw on metabattle that the current pve mesmer meta is domination-illusions-chronomancer http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Chronomancer_-_Utility_DPS

but I found myself more comfortable playing a domination-duelling-chronomancer variant: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vhAQRAsc8ansIClfi9fCuqBUrhFVjqOZn2qlMAGhirsDKhtB-TxRBAB5dSAMTJ4/7PclyPAeCA4pfgS1fAA-e

Duelling offers the same phantasm CD reduction (if you play sword/sword you are actually getting reduced CD on blurred frenzy as well), you get FURY on phantasms, you get 50% uptime on vigor, you get bleeds from phantasms (no need to remind you how well pistol phantasm racks up those bleed stacks), one additional fury source and you get fencer finesse which is a free 150 ferocity. Moreover, if you want a fast clone generation for some nuke encounter, you can trait deceptive illusions for chlone on dodge.

Illusions offers a 9% increased damage with 3 illusions up, 20% haste/recharge on illusions and reduced CD on shatters.

The only reason why I’d pick up illusions over duelling is only for the reduced cooldown on F5, but beside that, the rest seems a bit lackluster to me when compared to duelling.

So, why is illusions so much valued over duelling? Is there something vital I am ignoring? The pros of running duelling outnumber the pros I get from Illusions.

In both cases you can: summon iDuelist, summon iSwordsman, Ether signet activate, summon iSwordsman, f5, put down all wells and timewarp, continuum split expires and resets cd on wells and TW and you are free to repeat. All dungeon bosses usually succumb to the first 2 rounds. Those 20s of permanent alacrity and quickness are godlike for your party. And if the boss is something nasty that instakills your illusions, you can iLeap, dodge x2 and you have 3 clones up again, ready to shatter.

Enlighten me, please

PS: from a solo pve perspective, duelling is better too

Just disable this thing. It’s lame, it’s useless, it serves no purposes and it only slows players when they try to form parties.

I don’t why it was implemented in the first place… to stop people from trolling lfg parties? Who the kitten kitten does that to begin with, never had any instance of player “trolling” lfg in whatever mmo I played and anyone who afk’d would get kicked faster than light.

Did you want to limit path selling? Oh, breaking news, you BUTCHERED dungeons. You can barely form a party for dungeons nowadays and you can no longer be picky about the party, because besides those level 67 rangers, noone is going to join your lfg.

This useless limit is cancer. For fast-forming parties like fractals, I got this error way too often. Every 3rd round I get this thing and I’m unable to join a party for an untold amount of time and restarting the client multiple times or even waiting 5-10min doesn’t solve the issue. Eventually the “join” button becomes grayed out and you can’t join anyways new parties.

Moreover, when random players leave your party and you have to re-submit the lfg, the system automatically thinks you are spamming and doesn’t let you upload more. If your intention was to discourage random players from leaving, then you have messed up big time here, because the party leader can’t re-submit the lfg n times. So, if the “leaving” player wanted to troll a party, he could do that even with the limit up, because everytime the party leader would need to re-submit the lfg, eventually running out of “tries” and getting coqblocked by the system.

Disable this thing already, there are no benefits in keeping this feature.

PS:
Same goes with mails: wtf, after 2 mails it’s already spam? You have a seriously kitten microscopic threeshold.

1) Toxic shoulders and gloves
2) Electromagnetic-Descender Glider (Like when the kitten was this exactly? I totally missed it omg, was it out for like 1day or smth ??)

Waiting since 6 months for Toxic shoulders to reappear in the TP. I’ve gotten the Toxic gloves back then but couldn’t afford the shoulders at the time.

I thought they would have come back like grenth’s and phantasmal’s hood, which I see often on sale, but they didn’t. I hope in the march sales to see them back again

As the title says, will the toxic shoulders/gloves skins be back?

Back then I had bought the toxic gloves, which was available in the TP but now it’s been 6months or more that they haven’t been readded to the TP. I’ve waited and waited but, unlike other skins like Grenth’s or Phantasm’ hood, the toxic shoulders/gloves haven’t come back to the TP.

Recently I discovered that there actually was an event in which you could farm these blooms to purchase the skins from the vendor but I totally missed that event since I was graduating at uni. I tried to see if those events were still present but they weren’t (I’ve waited like 1h in the specified zones with nothing occurring lel) so I was asking: will those events be back? Or will you make it possible, be it via vendor or via TP, to obtain those skins again like you did with many other skins? 6 months have passed, so I’m starting to fear they won’t come back for a long time or ever.

Thanks

Any suggestion on what to use and if builds are viable? I mean, ok that in world pve “anything works”, but I wanted to know if there was some efficent condi build for open pve or HoT maps (afterall some mobs are heavy armored and melt under conditions, so it should be viable to some extent)

I was thinking of sinister/viper mix, mace/Axe and corruption/devastation/herald build with appropriate traits and condi durations rune/sigil to maximize burning and poison duration.

Do you have any sugggestion on any build or rotation to make it decently work? Or is condi revenant utter shjt?

Nevermind, as of today it started happening again. Now the errors vary a bit: at first it’s “impossible to connect to login server, restart client”, the second is the same gw2 error but now it spawns 4 bug report windows lol. Here an SS

When are you going to put them again on the TP T_T ?

I’ve been waiting months, hoping for you to put those items again on the TP, just like you cycle with Grenth’s/Phantom’s hood, but not a trace of the toxic skins.

Did I miss something? Are those items obtainable in game in some manner now and so you removed it from TP? Or are you just coqblocking me?

Thanks for your attention :<

Yesterday I was able to play non-stop without any error anymore. I guess that solved the issue, thank you.

Ye downloaded it. I’ll “test” it in the next hours, after this DS map fails, ty.

Here the full log http://pastebin.com/ejrujNRz but after taking a look at it, it’s always

This has been happenig to me since I ever set foot in kitten dragonstand.

This is the 7th time I manage to get in organized map (after waiting at least 30min of organizing and taxing in people) and BAM, error, unable to join back my squad and forever left out in empty map unable to do anything for the following 2h

I only ever completed this event ONCE, and that single time I completed it, I got an error when I was going to purchase stuff from the vendor. I log back and I’m in empty map with no vendor.

GG WP Anet, thanks for wasting my time

PS: Your technical support is non existent. In 3 y I play this game, I never once got any technical support, no matter how many details I provided, no matter how many times I bumped my topics. Never. I’d rate your tech support 0/10, not because it’s inherently bad, but because I never got it to begin with. I have nothing to rate. Posting a topic in that section is only a way to rant, because you’ll never see the light, ever.

COMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON WTF

again omgf, seriously, what the kitten is wrong? Just tell me

It’s since kittenign 10:30 I’m trying to get in a godkitten DS map, now it’s 12.40, kittening 4h of trying to get in and once I’m in organized map with everything set up

BAM

kittenING ERROR

And I’m left in kittening empty map unable to join back my squad because kittenign gw2 doesn’t save my spot for not even one signle kittening split second and forced to wait kittenign 2 long hours, unable to complete the kittening meta for the 7th time.

Just how the kitten am I supposed to do these cancer grindmaps in your game? I’ve even set char model/limit to lowest because I thought that was the problem but no. The kittening cancer is real.

Just tell me what to do., there must be something wrong somewhere. Here my dxdiag, jsut help me somehow, it’s being kittening cancerous to do anything these days. Always error error error wtf

Oh right, or why not make the game save your spot for 30s before you dc? You know, so that in the following 30s you attempt to log back in, you actually can get back in the map you were in and not be instantly replaced by the next random in queue? Why don’t you enable something like that?

A crash in the middle of a 2h event is too much punishing. And even if you only were 1h through the event, you still HAVE TO wait 1h more for your empty map to fail and wipe.

It’s really too much time you are asking for.

PS: My PC is way overkill for this game, so don’t even attempt to give out reasons as “maybe your pc can’t hold it”.

This map is giving me cancer.

I liked it the first time I did the whole chain of events leading to the dragon boss, but since then it simply became a pain.

Why? Because every godkitten time I’m in an organized map doing good, already nearing the last battle, I get some kind of fatal error and gw2 simply shuts down. It’s not a lagspike leading to a dc, it’s a simple flash dc with gw2 closing on its own and the “Send error to anet” chatbox.

I’ve started to hate this map, it already happened 4 times and always in the middle of the event, and naturally it’s impossible to get back in the same map. Even if I’m still in the squad, it’s imply impossible to get in because the map and I’m stuck in empty map.

The first time I did the event (1:20 h) and reached the vendor, I got a crash. When I logged back I was in empty map with no vendor.

Can you understand how much frustration is accumulating as I am denied the chance to buy the kitten plated weapon from the vendor for the collection?

Do something about it, so that the star lucky people like me still have a chance to buy stuff from the vendor. It’s nonsense, I’ve completed this event 4 times, I was able to talk to vendor only once. And every time I have to wait 2h to get it right. I only have the evenings to play since I’m at work during the day, and every evening I’m accomplishing nothing. A grindfest that rewards nothing.

Really, it’s BS anyways to make the vendor available only at the end. Completing the map is still an incentive because it gives good rewards and collectibles anyways, beside letting you open more noxious pods for items and crystaline ore which is required for the vendor. But everytime spending 2h here and getting kicked out and needin to wait more and more… just no.

Runes of Strength are kind of wasted on Reaper, really. I can keep 25might stacks at all time forever with scholars and without any food or buff increasing boon duration.

That is, unless you want to see yourself with 25 might stacks even after 20s the battle has ended

Will I be able to run gw2 at costant 50-60 fps in open world, dungeons/raids/fractals and structured pvp and with settings on high? I can make do with medium on some settings, but I at least want shaders on high and character textures on max.

I want to fully appreciate the awesome scenery of gw2 and not feel like trees are made of cartoon.

Thanks

I bought this expansion solely for Mesmer and Necromancer elite specs. No other reason.

What do I get? 400 pts to unlock the elite spec ugh. But fortunately I had enough points on both characters to at least unlock the new weapon and the first trait.

So well, I’m not playing the elite spec to its fullest potential, but at least I get to use the new weapons and the new mechanics. The maps look very good, but they kill my fps hard. I’ll probably enjoy it more once I get my hand on a better PC.

bump

Please help me T_T, once I had stable 45-60 fps, there must be some tweaking that will lead me to that again

Hi there

So far I’ve been playing gw2 on my laptop and I was able to play at low/medium settings with a very decent 45-60 fps all around.

It was very enjoyable and everything was good. However, with the latest updates (previous 4-5months), I’ve been getting lower and lower fps and, with the release of HoT, now my laptop isn’t able to properly play HoT maps at fps above 20 fps (even on lowest kittentiest settings).

So I’m asking you: is the new content so much more demanding than the core game that I’m forced to change my computer in order to make it playable?

I’ve tried messing up with NVIDIA settings and sometimes I could get better results, sometimes not. I was thinking that maybe there was a way to set my graphic card so that I can play HoT without getting cancer. For example, all those Antialias, GPU acceleration, buffering, CUDA-GPU and all other things I don’t understand, help me set them in the most optimal way so that gw2 doesn’t give me aids.

I’ll be happy with 30fps too for the moment, while I wait to get some money for a new pc.

These are my laptop specifics:
OS: Win 10 Home 64bit
Intel® Core™ i7-3630QM CPU @ 2.40Ghz (8CPUs)
4096MB RAM
Graphic Card:
Intel® HD Graphics 4000 (built-in)
NVIDIA Geforce 635M (Driver 353,30)

The game is ofc playing with NVIDIA graphic card as predefinite.

Thanks for your attention. Let’s push this laptop to its limits (I’ve already unparked all cores).

PS:
No need to go over the fact that laptops aren’t made to play bla bla. I had to use une for necessity and I’ve played GW2, WOW and other mmos on this laptop with very decent settings and with no problems.

I just pre-purchased the expansion, went in my account panel and donloaded client… but it looks like it’s not patching up, but rather installing the entire game again from scratch.

Isn’t there a way to just update my current client ._.? This will take ages

Thank you

For the ones who have had a chance to try out the reaper in the beta, how is it pve wise? Does it deal competitive damage? I guess it’s still far from ele/thief top dps, but I hope now it’s more comparable to warriors…. or is it still bottom dps and without any utilities whatsoever?

Im really looking forward to play the reaper in pve, I just hope it isn’t inferior to the current d/wh meta.

I toyed with the builder and came up with a build (link) which allows you to stack might like a warrior, vuln like a champion, and lets you sit at 100% crit. It’s aoe and mobs in pve will suck up all the hardcasts, so theoretically it should work. To which extent? I don’t know yet, but from the tooltip I can see that RS auto does 60% of GS auto, even tho it’s faster and got 100% chance to crit.

I’m just speculating atm, just dying to know if people will stop shunning necro for being useless and dealing bad dps and if RS finally brings AT LEAST competitive dps…. because well, I took a look at the skills, and necro still doesn’t add anything to the party. Just damage. Now I hope that damage is good enough to compensate the lack of support.

Thanks

Wow so many answers, nice to see there are so many options.

I come from italy, so ordering in EU won’t be a problem. Do you know of any easy-to-read website where it’s explained how to build a rig? Many things that were mentioned, I don’t even know what they are- Also, if I buy all the stuff, does it usually come with windows installed, or you get OS separately or smth? I only owned laptops so far, so that’s my desktop experience :p

So you really suggest me to wait 2016 to get this nvidia pascal? Will it be one of those “oh new version, n bugs” ? Everytime something new releases, it has incompatibility issues or stuff like that. Oh well, thanks for the info and keep them coming. This will be my master’s degree present, so I’m going out of my way to get a truly decent pc.

PS
I have a 40’’ samsung TV screen: can I use it as monitor?

My budget is 1.5k – 1.7k. I’ve never built my own gaming pc before and so far I’ve always played on laptops, missing out on a lot of features and good graphics.

Now I decided to get a good desktop, but I need to know the best specs I can get with that budget and if I’ll finally be able to run gw2 and other mmos, like wow or ff14,to max settings with no problems. (I can stretch 100-200€ more if necessary)

PS: how much painful is it to build a rig? Also, how long can I expect this pc to hold? Will I need to change stuff already within 6months-1y?

Thanks for your attention

Sigh

It was like 8 months I wasn’t playing my engineer if not occasionally logging it for crafting or 10 min open world.

I was so excited when they launched the new kit and I had fun the first two days by using it in open world and dungeons (even if it was worse than bombs and it did the same damage as grenades, but without applying 3vuln). I was literally only playing engi because I was having fun like the first time I started an engineer… but now you killed it. You totally destroyed it.

I do admit that you have an exceptional skill in building nice things and then crush them with a sadistic grin on your face.

I refuse to go back on grenades again. Since when I got to 80, the meta has always been grenades, grenades, grenades, grenades… how kittening boring. I’ll now go back on my thief; that one class never disappoints. RIP mortar

With the new elite spec incoming, we get a skill reset on F5.

Now think about it: sword/focus & sword/shield, with warden feedback and glamour increased duration:

focus4/5 – 1st reflect
shield4 – 2rd reflect
feedback – 3reflect
F5
focus4/5 – 4reflect
shield4 – 5th reflect
feedback – 6th reflect

In dungeons we’ll be able to upkeep immense reflection uptime and we get another weapon with an additional reflect.

I guess shield will not only be for pvp. Actually, having access to double timewarp will make mesmers very well wanted in dungeons.

What do you think? Discuss

fracture.9754:

Metallus.7690:

There are few things that would make the necromancer more desiderable in pve:
1) Give boons to bosses. Necros are very good at corrupting boons: Well of Corruption, Corrupt Boon, Dark Pact trait, Spinal Shivers, Necromatic Corruption trait. They’d be actually useful if they could remove protection, aegis or fury from bosses. You could give bosses quick skills that periodically apply boons to them, so that we’d need someone who removes boons systematically.

Mesmer > necro in this regard.

Metallus.7690:

2) Add the following changes to our existing skills:
- Corrosive Cloud: destroy projectiles inside the area
- Withering Precision: reduce CD so that necros can quickly reapply and keep weakness on a boss. Weakness is a very debilitating debuff and would shine more on more difficult content like fractals.

1.)Ele > necro in this regard.
2.)Skale venom > necro in this regard.

Metallus.7690:

3) Try to make it so necromancer’s damage is increased in pve. Make it so, despite being such a selfish and useless class, it actually can output damage comparable to that of thief or ele. At the moment its damage is more comparable to that of mesmer without reflects (which is shjt).

Okay, here’s Anet priority list for you. Gemstore > esports (lolz) > pve > everything else > last years snow > dungeons.

Yes, other classes would be better at it… but at least necromancer would become a decent alternative and not be shunned completely because it’s a helpless class.

Moreover, engineer too is in the same position: engineer can do everything but less optimally than all other classes. The advantage of the engineer is that it can keep up 25vuln.

Also yes, my suggestions are moderate and would just make necro slightly more viable.. . but realistically speaking, these are the changes that I think are more likely to take place.

I don’t think they are going to revamp the necro class, give us 20% increased damage or overpower some skills. Better start from little changes

There is so much hate for the necro class in pve atm. Most lfg specifically say “no necro”.

The thing is that necros, beside not bringing any utility to the party (no reflects/stability/protection/aegis/skips/buffs) deal mediocre dps.

Who would want a class that deals less than average dps and brings nothing to the table? No one.

These are the most realistic suggestions I could come up with.

Suggesting a total revamping is something that will not happen, not with Anet’times. These are small changes that will make necromancer slightly more desiderable in a party setting, since currently there is no place for them, not with the current mindset that no one wants necros in party (and for good reasons).

I myself am less inclined to play a class that is inferior to all other classes in all aspects in pve. Like, there is nothing I can do better on necro but tanking. How bad tanking is not required in a game where the point isn’t to mitigate damage but to avoid it with dodges, blocks, invulnerability etc.

More love to necro

For the ones who have played darksiders 2, you surely have come across the reaper’s form of Death. The functionality is very similar to Deathshroud: you enter a special form that lets you perform special skills. In Death’s case, the reaper form makes him use a huge scythe with which he melees.

What comes closest to a scythe for necromancers is the staff that automatically morphs into a scythe when you use skills. I’d rather have staff be melee and use it as a scythe rather than throw out an ugly bolt of shjt.

We already have axe and scepter as ranged weapons, not counting Deathshroud that is a ranged option for any weapon combo. Only mainhand dagger is currently melee.

I would rather like axe range to be increased, so to become a decent power ranged option and for staff auto to become melee so that we can swing it as a scythe, leaving boring marks as they are. Alternatively, leave weapons as they are, which is still boring, and make DeathShroud auto a melee scythe swing, just like reaper’s form, instead of throwing a superboring lifeblast of shjt that throws your weapon (wtf?).

Would make necro way funnier and kitten. I’d actually love a total remake of the staff/scythe but it won’t happen.

Just logged in, tried to join a party for AC and instantly got the message.

Wth, I haven’t joined one single party today, this is kittened.

Also, yesterday I was able to do like 10 dungeons runs with no problems. First time I get this kitten.

For god sake, your kitten spam threeshold is abyssally low. I mean
- sending 2 mails = spam
- making 3 identical lfgs = spam
- joining no party at all = spam (???)
- spread selling on TP = spam

Seriously, stop this kitten, it’s annoying and useless.
