Guild Wars 2

Internal Cool Down.

I think it means that the 10% damage buff will last forever o_o

Especially the tanky AND burst damage warriors?

Thanks for the help e_e

The mesmer I fought was an extremely skilled one. He killed all THREE of us. It was in wvw.

It depends on what your definition of “is” is…

A definition of a ranger in a mmorpg is a person who fights from long-distance.
A definition of a ranger in gw2 is a park ranger who is specialized in hunting.
And no one can hunt animals by going on foot or using melee. They use traps and attack from afar, because animals run faster than humans.

Indeed. “The problem is that role (ranged guy with a rifle) is already occupied by the warrior.” They can also use longbows.

So why rangers use rifles as well?

MindfulPerson.5273:

What is the definition of a ranger? It’s a person who uses weapons at a distance.

You do understand this pretty much invalidates your entire argument right? I am assuming this is the thinking of many of the “Ranger needs rifle” people.

We don’t have magic. Nor do we have melee capability comparable to fighting guardians or warriors. We have throwing axes as well. We also have traps with ground-targeting traits with a range of 600. Traps are also used to prevent our enemies from coming at a distance. Even our spirits have activated-traps to prevent enemies from approaching us.

We are supposed to be specialized in range.

Fine. e_e

I’ll learn how mesmers kill.
And then I’ll get revenge.

Why would I even touch a mesmer…
I’m dedicated to my ranger 24/7!

Õ3Õ AWOOOOOOOO!!!!

Rangers are hunters. Rangers should be able to equip hunting rifles.
Why not equip spirit bullets?

What about the lone ranger? He uses rifles.
What is the definition of a ranger? It’s a person who uses weapons at a distance.

And if you’re talking about common sense, why can warriors
use BOTH longbow and rifles? That makes them more of a ranger than us, and they have more melee damage than us.

Rangers can equip buckshot ammo or have rapid fire with their rifle.

Would using longbow or shortbow be more helpful against a mesmer?
Longbow #5 can kill about 2 illusions, but with a 25 second cooldown time, that mesmer can keep making more illusions.

Shortbow can only kill 1 target at a time and even then, it doesn’t do comparable burst damage against 3 mesmers including their illusions against 1 ranger.

I wish canine companions had a scent trait that allowed them to attack the real enemy and not fall for the illusions of the mesmers.

Have you guys killed a mesmer before?
Please help! O_O

I thought about using ground-targeting traps to limit their range movement. But they stealth for too long and use illusions to get out of my range, wait for the traps to disappear, and keep spamming their magic on me.

Quarktastic.1027:

So…You want a 1200 range one button guaranteed instant kill?

Seems legit.

You played the Southsun Survival game?
It had a range of 2000 and instant kill.

But it requires excellent aim and a visible line of sight. It’s a sniper’s shot, and it can be dodged easily.

Ever since competing in the Hunger Games during my vacation in Southsun Survival Islands, that #4 longbow shot amazed me…

Longbow Skill #4: Headshot – Pierce your foe in the head with a 7.62 mm arrowhead. Target downs immediately. Brain hemorrhage applies 1400 bleeding damage. 40 second cooldown.

Why don’t we have that sniper shot? No one fears rangers. Every class ridicules us, some speed run dungeon groups actively protest against us. Even in sPvp, everyone gives us hate.

But if we were to gain a new power, a skill that would make our enemies cringe and keep away from our range skill shots, we would reclaim our former glory.

>inb4 everyone rolls to ranger class again

It isn’t cool. When rangers are nerfed, people stop playing them. When they’re buffed, everyone comes back to play ranger and praises the class.
e_e

There aren’t that many rangers in Tyria…

>that feel when no ranger girlfriend

>that feel when there are no female sylvari in the game
>that feel when I only know 3 sylvari, all of whom are male
>that feel when disappointed the Mother Tree

If a violin string can ache, then I was that string.

Only one trumpet can work at a time.
The same thing like stacking, which affects a max of 5 people, I think.

When I see someone playing the flute, they have a music note icon as a boon or condition under their name. (That is what inspired me to make this thread)

>that feel a Necro Sylvari makes a move on you
>that feel when not interested in that kind of wood…

(She probably has termites)

Don’t nerf rangers.
They’re already nerfed.

If rangers get nerfed, you should expect other classes to get nerfed.
Rangers lose their dps, and pet dps, now you want to limit our mobility?
Rangers keep losing their skills and every other class stomps on us.

Not fair, friend.

It is partially a suggestion…
It is a discussion about instruments and wvw!

Please allow the Flute and Marriner’s Horn be able to provide benefits in WvW.

For example, using the flute and playing a song would provide a 5 % increase in boon duration as long the flute is played.

Or playing a song to our enemies would make them become invulnerable by 10% because our music would pierce their souls.

Playing the Marriner’s Horn and stacking with other Marriner Horn players would provide a benefit of 5 stacks of might.

Playing the Marriner’s Horn in front of our enemies would irritate them, so it decrease their boon duration by 10% because of its obnoxious noises. Not to mention, it would make them mad.

Please make the musical instruments audible in WvW!!
We should have a war band…

We’re finally getting some of the romantic instruments..
I can’t wait to play this for someone special in Lion’s Arch

>that feel when Sylvari Ranger
>that feel when being both the most undesired race and undesired class in all of Gw2
>that feel when unaccepted to dungeons and wvw guilds because I am a ranger
>that feel when not considered attractive because of my mushroom haircut (blame Sylvari genetics)
>that feel when have to wear a helmet to cover my face and said mushroom haircut
>that feel when look less intimidating to my enemies compared to Charr, Humans, and Norns
>that feel when unable to find a Sylvari woman to start a family tree with
>that feel when forever a grove

The guild should have 100% rep for rangers only. But the guild that Prysin made is already stable :P

Prysin.8542:

if you wish to join a guild, solely cuz the name is awesome, then you may be missing something.

Who ever said that someone would join a guild because of the name? It wasn’t stated in the thread.

e_e

But I do think the name should describe our goals. And if it includes a server title with it, it excludes the rest of us from different servers. It has to be a name to include everyone!

I agree… we should have had a guild called the Power Rangers…

We need an organization. An organization exclusively for rangers.
Who is with me?
And who has a guild name ready for our creation?

The Lonely Rangers
Rangers for Revenge
Rampant Rangers
The Angered Rangers
Retro Rangers

It doesn’t have to be for one server. It is a title to show that the ranger class still exists. OR are afraid? Too weak to join us? Too clingy to your guild with warriors and thieves? Hah. I guess you don’t have what it takes to stand up for yourself, and for your CLASS!

Join me, and we will get revenge.

MagiKarp.8201:

Organised Chaos is the best kind of organisation.

The Law of Entropy says that all order eventually deteriorates into disorder. Organized Chaos implies no organisation.

Who enjoys laggy WvW wars, where there is no order or structure?

Unorganized battles drags the war on longer. We can only conquer a town if our enemy makes mistakes or gets lazy and doesn’t defend an area.

Have there been any commanders or effort by players to make battle units?
I want to be a commander, but would anyone take me seriously?

I’ve witnessed the “Stack” Tactic, and it is unbelievable. It is successful, and now I want to employ the Age of Empires tactics as well.

We could have Guardians and Warriors charge the Fort or battle lines. And then 10 seconds later thieves would sneak in and disrupt the enemy infrastructure. They would stealth in the middle of battle while the enemies worry about fighting against the charging warriors and guardians.

On the left side, we have rangers and engineers flanking the enemy. And on the right side, elementalists, mesmers, and necromancers would flank the enemy on the other side.

Why can’t warfare be organized? I think it would be fun.
What is the point of having Catapults, Trebuchets, and Siege Rams…
It’s like Age of Empires.
