Depending on my gear my ele can crack 1,000+ healing power.
I have no issues farming events, always get gold, and the only time I lose out on badges is when I forget to loot them.
You’re probably doing it wrong and sitting in water thinking you’re helping with your Mist hot.
On the contrary, I think that “you’re probably doing it wrong” if you’re sitting at 1000+ healing and you’re wasting GCD’s in PvP on weak spam damage to get kill credits instead of using those valuable GCD’s on healing, preventing damage, crowd control, or buffing.
Now, if you’re going for a hybrid DPS/Support build then carry on. This thread is about dedicated support builds.
Everything in this game is a hybrid. The sooner people figure this out the sooner the QQ will stop or people will go back and play Pandacraft so they can sit in the back and play whack-a-mole with their UI. Saying you’re wasting GCD’s in WvW to attack because you have healing power..
You know what, just forget you. There’s no helping you.
There is dedicated support and dedicated tanking in this game. It is a lack of experience on your part that makes you oblivious to this.
If you think a fully support spec’d guardian blows a couple of cooldowns and then has nothing to do… then you just don’t understand the class or what builds are possible with it.
I have a dps necro and a support guardian. Both of them, as built, are effective at WvW and assist the team equally well. The necro accrues badgest faster than the guardian. Fact.
I can forgive the ignorance. But flailing around on the forums and accusing people of being WoW players is just ridiculous.
Learn more about the game then come back here and we can discuss this issue with support players further.
While I’m learning to play I should probably concentrate more on my GCD’s in WvW right?
Irony.
Furthermore,
If people really think all we do is spam one or two skills and then wait one minute for a cool down, i still don’t even see why that should mean we should get no contribution.

What you’re wanting isn’t possible because the players that are actually able to utilize their characters correctly and swap in between defense and offense would either see double or NO reward at all for their efforts.
Learn to play correctly.

Most awesome thread title ever.
I think there should be tournament servers for alliances.
That way the alliances don’t have to deal with clogged queues from coattail riders and the coattail riders won’t be able to QQ about alliances having an advantage because they bought a Teamspeak server.
Just remove the jumping puzzles altogether.
While we’re at it, take out the vistas. Neither of these things has anything to do with pvp.
Hello Mike,
Here is my bottom line, and I believe many folks may also have this bottom line.
I bought the game to do WvW.
My average queue time is 3 hours.
My guild has invested time on our server and will lose progress if we move.
I will not be able to play with folks I’ve played with for 10+ years if I move without them.
I am bored with PvE.
I will soon stop playing Guild Wars 2 out of boredom.I love them game.
I love WvW when I get in.
I see lots of potential for loads of fun.But as of right now, it is becoming a waste of my time.
This. I bought and paid extra money for the influence book and now I’m being told transfer and lose all that? Unacceptable. We deliberately rolled on the lowest pop server and now it’s the highest pop and I get to play in wvw about once every week if I’m lucky. I hit the “queue” button a millisecond too late last night for reset so I may not even get to play this week. That will make it about 2 weeks since I’ve gotten to play in WvW.
So options at this point are – transfer and lose all guild progress or just deal with it. Does ArenaNet not see how that is unacceptable? Having worked for MMO companies in the past, it’s your job to maintain server balance. It may very well be that there are some issues on the back end that we can’t see but this can’t go on for much longer. The hardest part about maintaining an MMO is keeping your playerbase. This is causing some significant dents to all facets of the playerbase – casuals and the hardcore which makes it so imperative to fix.
It’s my humble suggestion that some band-aid fixes be put in place in lieu of some more permanent ones. For example, offering incentives to transfer to “Low Pop server of the Month”. Offer 100 gems (or whatever you feel is appropriate) and a free transfer to the servers in dire need of more people.
Immediately close transfers to servers at capacity. They may not be at capacity on the technical side, but on the gameplay side they are way past full. Cease these immediately.
Offer a way for guilds to transfer as groups so they do not lose their bonuses. People would be much more willing to move around if they did not feel all their hard work was going to go down the drain. Also, those that bought the collector’s edition are unfairly penalized by the lack of this feature.
I want to play the hell out of this game. I want to love this game. But myself and many others are in the unique position of the game not allowing it. It’s an interesting and unfortunate set of circumstances – perhaps the first of it’s kind. The sooner it gets put to rest the better for everyone.
Are you 80? Do you have 100% map completion? Do you have all the skill points on the normal PvE map? Do you have all the vistas?
If you don’t want to PvP then don’t go into the pvp zone. Go finish the PvE content before you come crying about how PvP needs to be changed because you got owned in a fight.
