First of all, i truly respect this game. It’s fresh, it’s new, it has awesome stuff.

But when people say to me “Ah, guild wars 2 PvP is the best, it’s all about skill and not stats”, i just feel like laughing. That’s the general opinion, and before i played GW, i thought “Well, i love PvP, so this feels just right for me”. I couldn’t be more wrong.

The word sPvP doesn’t even have meaning, i treat it as shi**** PvP. Or even PvB, as in players vs noobs.

Where should i start?
In sPvP it’s all about the zerg. You have a zerg? you kill. You try to follow a strategy? No one wants that and you’ll end up dead once again. Ress? No one does that. They fight right besides you, don’t res, then here it comes some thief and kills you, and the noob who stared at you even when the thief has gone stealthed.

Now you say “but there are people who are starting now, let them learn”. Fully respect that, and i even help fresh players in need. But those ranked 40+ who can’t play at all strucks my nerve.

Basically, Guild Wars 2 PvP is just a joke. You farm everyday, not being sure of what you’re doing, and achieve some ranks with some skins. So? Is that all? Yeah, you go to sPvP, farm like crazy, just mashing some buttons in the middle of the zerg, then go to tournaments, and do the same. Or even, get 5 point holders and the tournament is won. Genius!

My conclusion? To be good in GW2 PvP, you need to follow a zerg, or bring a full team of point holders. Strategy? Nah. Good builds? Nah, just choose between point holder or glass cannon. Warrior? HB of course. Thief? Backstab or just mash heartseek like there’s no tomorrow!

Check other games’ PvP, and compare them both. Check WoW’s PvP for example and you’ll see you cannot kill someone in half a second. Or sit in a point, full defensive and never leave there, don’t kill anyone, and still win! GW2 disencourages PvP. In raid of the capricorn for example, you go to one base, conquer, go to the other base, conquer, repeat repeat. You can win without even having a fight. If you plan to go back and fight? You die, because the other team zerg just kills you easily

Make it so you have to have skill to play in PvP. I did the experience of grabbing every class, go to PvP with a pre-made build (which at first they said it would have variety – yeah sure…..) and melt faces. Elementalist full water / earth? Gl killing me. Thief with backstab / heartseek build? Do a backstab and mash HS. If they don’t die in a second, you do right after.
Right now, the PvP is just worthless, mindless, and it turned into a constant farm. If that’s your idea for PvP, sure. To me? Even though i did tournaments and farmed titles + skins (there’s not anything else) in the past, i just don’t feel like going to PvP. Daily, Monthly and that’s it. I’ll be back when there’s skill needed and not just a pure farm.

Thank you for your attention

Thoughts about the new update?

I feel like not reporting bugs, cheaters or whatever. In my case, i completed all of the hints and tips tab and no achievment, as they stopped the counting on 80/83. Reported about 5 times (it happened a month ago) and nothing.

Tired of playing my mesmer (among other classes) and when i use the attack 2 on staff i get stuck in rocks, under water and whatever. Bug solving? nah, nerf mesmer.

So why the hell should i report bugs, cheaters or whatever? I feel like looking the other way and simply don’t care bout Anet, as they simply don’t care bout the game.

People cried like hell in the beginning because of HS (i played a thief back then) , and Anet did nothing bout it. 0.25 secs CD? Mesmers only, gg!

Elementalists doing a charge and taking almost half your life with the first burst? (and i’m not glass cannon specced) Sure, no prob!

Elementalists and Guardians impossible (!!!!) to kill while PH spec? No prob, give them even more heal.

Hey, let’s take out the mesmer clones, or reduce their damage. Or even take away their stealth, they’re not thieves!! Or even better, take their weapons away, they can only attack with utilities! That will improve the game! <—— How Anet thinks. Instead of patting your programmers in the back, try and do something bout the game itself and not one class or another. I do not ask for nerfs in the other classes, i only ask – one – simple – thing…… Fix the f’ing bugs from the game! (And in the future improve maps like Cursed Shore – Lotsa rocks and Lotsa undead, that’s it for now; Create more PvP modes – Team Deathmatch, Last Man Standing, etc.)

And btw Anet, instead of trying to answer to all of the cry babies, try and fixing bugs. I report tons of stuff and yet you turn to mesmers (surprise surprise) and change something. Everyone shuts up, as they just like to hear “mesmers got nerfed again”, yet the bugs are still in the game. Bugs with 1month+ old -.-

Well, if it worked with so much QQ let me try -

WHAAAAAAA cut down the thieve’s damage, and put CD on HS.

WHAAAAAAAAAA cut down the guardian’s healing and take down their book.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA take down hundred blades from the warrior, along with endure pain.

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA take chill from rangers.

QQ Anet, you suck, QQ(((((((((

i wonder if this is the right format to write to Anet, it seems they listen to crying people?

PS. I’m not concerned bout the changes, 0.25 on shatter is nothing and prevents bugs. Although i’m a little disapointed about shattered strenght. No matter though, you keep nerfing us, we keep melting you. I wonder where the next QQ is going now. WHAAAAAA take clones away from mesmers :<

Chef Achievments

My suggestions comes after seeing lots of players just grinding through crafting, mainly in chef one, just to get to 400. When you see their recipes, they only have 15 or 20 of them.

I, for one, like to gather recipes from all the karma vendors. I do like the discover system, so you can combine and experiment. But after thinking about it, it’s pretty much useless. Basically i can just grab a recipe or two, with magic find stats, and ignore all the rest. So what’s the point of other existing recipes?

My suggestion would be to earn achievments according to the number of recipes you have. 1 recipe? here’s an achievment. 20 of them? here’s another. 50? …and so on.

This could be applied to the other crafting activities, even with titles or whatever.

has anyone at areanet even watched a tournament?

Everyday a new crying post about mesmers. But yeah, they should nerf the mesmers. Just take all of their damage, so they can only run, and can’t damage anything! Even with this people would start crying because they couldn’t kill us -.-

Input to Condition Build (PvP)

in Mesmer

Posted by: Sokram.7856

Sokram.7856

Hey everyone.

This build is focused mainly in PvP, and able to adapt to a PvE situation (More suportive).

http://www.gw2build.com/builds/simulator.php#1.8.7.3.0.20.21.37.0.36.180.196.199.200.204.4.6.46.0.0.0.542.549.0.559.565.0.573.575.0.0.0.0.0.20.25.25.0

I wanted some input to where should i improve / change in the build.
As i said, it is a condition build, also adding some survivability to PvP situations.

Thanks in advance!

It would limit the players. There are bots and farmers to sell gold, but that’s another story.

But if a player chooses to walk around grabbing every piece of material, i don’t see why this is wrong. It would be the same thing as limiting the experience gained in one day, or limit PvP activity. Everyone chooses his own game style.

Yeah, if people do want them for RP purposes, of course! Though i’m not confortable if it came with bonus that would give advantages over those who don’t want use that system.

Shandim, if it was in that aspect, i wouldn’t feel anything wrong against it. Pure aesthetic purposes, or collectible items, sure. If it does add a movement bonus, it would change the game…a lot :X

Swiftness has a what, 5, 10, 15 secs duration? It’s not permanent, like the mounts would be. I played WoW for a long time, and the mount system got boring really fast. As a collectible item? Sure, i had a few rare mounts. Yet, it does make you ignore everything else. Someone being attacked? Meh, screw that. Someone downed? Meh, not gonna unmount to help.

Swiftness is not something permanent, in the fact that you have to activate it everytime the cooldown is gone. Mounts are mounts, and when you use it, you just go to an auto-pilot mode..

Shandim, i was a bit harsh in my post. What i meant is, they should make new implementations first, and this should be made when the game is steady (bug correction, balance between professions taken care of, etc…).

In my play style i won’t be using it if it’s implemented, that’s a fact. But heck, if it improves player’s mood, go ahead, as long as it doesn’t disturb the other players

If this would be implemented, it would have to be a crafting activity like others, and count towards your 2 active crafting skills at a time

Does it bring any utility? Does it improve the game? Or is it just something to show around? If it is, thumbs down. Either way i never felt marriages in games should exist, unless if it is for a pure RP server

Mounts will kill the idea of exploration. Scenarios were made to be seen, not rushed. I fully disagree

When you 100% an area... add an ICON to the World Map.

Add Longer Duration "Stealth" PvE-Only Skill

Sokram.7856

I can’t agree with perma stealth. It is fine as it is. Else, stealth would have a much bigger cooldown, and couldn’t be used in combat. That just grants the surprise attack, not the constant stealth in and out during combat

  • Create a guild message saying “RandomPlayer has joined the guild”, “RandomPlayer has left the guild”
  • Create an option to see who logs in our out, similar to what we have in our friend system. You could activate or deactivate this option to wheter see log in and out of the members, or simply don’t.
  • Create a sound emote or something when someone shouts your name in the guild chat
  • Create an officer chat, where officers can speak without lower ranks see it

And that’s all that comes to my mind atm, thank you.
