Guild Wars 2

To say some obvious things…
What I really don’t like it the difference in base HP. Elementalists, Guardians, Thieves have 7567 less HP than Warriors and Necros from the beginning.
For Guardians this isn’t that bad, because of pretty nice healing (but only in support build). This difference makes Warriors a bit… yes… OP (less more Necromancers, but still).

Better thing is that they will be buffed even more with shouts traits changes.
What will we get then: bunker with decent dmg, high AoE condition removing, high AoE healing, high passive regeneration (or if someone prefer even more condition removing), great self-stability, nice amount of CCs, great mobility.

Ok, maybe Warrior can’t be the best AoE damage dealer or supporter (in boons spamming way, because he can be great with conditions removing and healing), but isn’t this profession a bit too good now?
Seriously, how many of players can honestly say that in their oppinion Warriors aren’t much better (in general mechanic possibilities way) than other professions?
How much others professions must sacrifice to be as good as Warriors in condition removing, healing or bunking?
The point is that no matter which role Warrior chooses, he won’t become weak in different role, as long as he takes Tactics and Defense traits.

IMHO the best situation to imagine how good Warriors are, is a group of 5, of course Tactics and Defense traits, shouts builded, runes of soldier, all with Hammers, but with different items attributes, 2nd weapon sets and few traits.
I just can’t imagine group of 5 that could beat Warriors. Maybe some kind of specialized builds and tactics, but that kind of group would never be as flexible as Warriors.

So keep swapping professions, builds, items depending on situation… or go for Warrior.

Probably the best look I’ve ever made, because of complexity level.

That’s a true sylvari’s necromancer style.

I know that there isn’t such build that can beat everything in 1 vs 1. Still… some are too powerful, especially with HUGE lags in zerg fights, when using skills is really difficult.

As far as I know, Warrior can get about 790hp / sec passive, with full adrenaline, 25 sigil stacks, food, runes and of course with best items. That is about 1125 hp / sec with regeneration and 2175 hp per shout with 20, 20, 24 sec CDs. And all this with 3 k attack, 3,3 k armor and 22,7 k hp. So have fun with that…

Elementalists don’t need more hp (guardian has the same amount with almost 300 more armor). The point is that, to deal high damage elementalists are using dagger / dagger set, which is 300 – 400 range. That’s almost melee, so it’s too easy to hit them.
Scepter / focus gives not as good damage but allows to avoid some damage. Other thing is that doesn’t have as much healing.
Staff, which should be the best one because of long range, isn’t great to deal damage because of far too much support role.
So it’s all about close combat issue in suicide way.

Another day, another bug.
For the second time I have a pleasure to have this lovely bug. Last time it last for about 20 hours. Nothing helped: relogging, character swapping, game restarting, system rebooting, auto-repair. And now I have it again.
If TP shouldn’t work, then block it and leave only vendors, if it should, allow me to sell my items I looted. Do I looted too many so I can’t sell it? Do I sell it too often? Does god hate me?
Who cares if bots can sell items or not if normal players can’t.
Best thing is that we have no respond, nor long term bug fix. It just happens and YOU can be next!

The time has come to reveal my build to the world.

PvP BM Build

http://bit.ly/12pl9rW

IMHO the best possible PvP build, not only as ranger, but generally. It has been amazing for a few months.

Fight should be begun with Axe and Warhorn and: Call of the Wild (5), Winter’s Bite (3), Rending Pounce (Lynx’s F2), Hunter’s Call (4), Spitblade (2).

Next swap to Jaguar and Shortbow: Cripple Shot (4), Stalk (Jaguar’s F2), “Sick’ Em” (7), Poison Volley (2), Quick Shot (3), Concussion Shot (5).

Between skills using spam 1 (Ricochet and Cross Fire), swap weapons every 10 sec, swap pet at least every 30 sec to use their F2.

I prefer to not use Singet of Renewal and Signet of the Wild, a little too long CD and without them it may be tough.

Use Rampage As One for fights with more than 1 enemy or fighting against bunker, like some guardians.

Weakness: Not enough Conditions removers.

Try it before you judge.
