Show me a coordinated epi bomb that wins a gvg against a decent guild.
All I ever see is uncoordinated pug groups getting instant downed by a 4 necro 10 man group. Any decent 10 man can instant down pug groups.
Guild groups kill pug groups… this is not new…
Runes of due are stupidly strong in all cases. Aoe proc when hit of the best boons in game? Cmon nothing else is even close. When hit… Is the imp part. Prot, res are only needed when taking damage.
I run these on basically every one of my wvw specs on every class. It’s never a bad choice. Aoe party support – check. Self sustain buff- check.. Now u can go more glassy. Not to mention boon due increase.
I’m surprised they have not been nerfed already tbh. To those who do not run them, do, u will not be disappointed.
@Sich.7103, That is how WvW should had worked since day one, being guild based and making guilds more proud on holding and mantaining their stuff, but moving on and hoping for good changes.
Guilds should have more control for siege in their sector, a few examples:
-Replace siege positioning.
-Define flags to request from nearby players to friendly drop X siege in flag spot, and only that siege can be doplyed in that zone, that would avoid trolled to drop tons of rams in walls so no more siege can be builted for defense.
-Sacrifice siege for supply.
-Lock and unlock some siege for guild use, as golems if parked inside.
-remove timmers for siege would be nice…
Really? Lets limit player participation even further…
The guild changes made in hot to wvw have been a disaster. Remove barriers for players to participate, dont add them.
The build is a slight variation of the meta pvp build.
It uses Runes of Trooper, Cleansing Wave & Cleansing Water. This allows for shouts with auras to cleanse two conditions and provides better team support when facing outnumbered foes in my experience.
P/d trapper thief still works for very small fights and 1v1.
Drop shadow arts for daredevil. You need dash to land the cad stealth. Also, pick confusion on steal instead of interrupt.
For utilities, drop hide in shadows, venoms and shadow trap for withdraw, shadow step and impairing daggers.
Practice on timing your steal right at the end of casting withdraw. Timed right, enemy will have needle trap land on them with steal conditions, and you are stealthed for a sneak attack followed by impairing daggers. This will force major CDs on most classes and strait kill the low hp ones.

These are a few fun fights we had this weekend roaming 4vX with friends. Features both Reaper and Tempest point of views.
Good-
Sentry changes
Marking enemy’s who are in the keep when it flips (why does stealth remove this?)
Neutral-
Auto waypoints at certain points
Bad-
Way too big
Too vertical, it’s like the designer thought we would have gliders in wvw.
Walls too large. I can’t even auto attack or siege disable when standing on top of a wall being hit with catas
Towers and keeps too large. Hard to scout. After Breaking thru inner, it should be obvious where to go…
PVE mini event at oasis
Gimmicky stuff like lava and wind nock outs
Removal of +5
Auto upgrades make the desire to hold towers and keeps less, as no investment was involved and w/o waypoints at t3, no value in holding vs flipping back
Suggestion- people do wvw to fight other players in a open world setting. Objectives simply provided a place for those fights to occur. Ensuring objectives are easily traveled to, captureable, and valuable are key to the future of wvw. Please keep this in mind when making changes.
I also politely request the removal of the “required number of players” to earn favor and claim a guild hall. Please do not make the content easier, but let us try.
To all the haters… Why do you care how other people enjoy playing this game? Word definitions have little meaning in a fantasy game with magic and dragons….

I am part of a two person guild with no interest in joining a larger one. We are able to accomplish a lot with just two people. Please do not ruin this aspect of the game for us.
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Condition_Duration
Condition duration from various sources increases (and decreases) additively as a percentage increase on the base condition duration. For example, an increase of 30% condition duration from traits and an increase of 15% bleeding duration from runes would yield a total of 45% bleeding duration increase over the base duration. Condition duration from runes isn’t shown in the skill’s tooltip, but does correctly increase duration. Condition duration cannot be increased beyond 100%
B4 the patch, duration increases from specific traits(not the general x cond duration from taking a trait line) increased the base duration of the skill. Then duration increases from food and runes would apply to this new base duration. This allows the final duration to be greater than 100% increase of the non trained base duration.
Good example was fear increase on necros prepatch have. 50% trait changed 1sec fear to 1.5, then food and gear duration increases would extend the fear well above 2sec, up to 3 at 100%
I agree. Please address ricochet being removed. This trait is crucial to my play style.
Here are a few fun fights my roaming partner and I had over the past few months.

Pro tip…. Stealth trap = 30 sec reveal debuff. I always have a few on my chars just in case a thief is doing this to hide in keep after we took.
Only option is to prevent the cnd with well timed blinds, dodges and knock backs. This is hard in wvw if they stealth off of animals, walls ect.
Also, most only run two gap closers so they can be kited, leaving them the only option of spamming 1.
I run a similar build as an alt to conditions. For me, 30/10/0/0/30 and changing out rocket boots for elix s is more effective. the 100% 5 sec stealth on tossing s that resets at low health will save you countless times. Much more then rocket boots.
Instead of the nerfed vigor trait, I take the 50% endur regen trait and Drop static discharge. Static discharge really only shines when using off the global cd toolbelt skills. It will reveal you if tossing elixers near enemy’s.
If surv is the problem in zergs, try
30/0/0/30/10
Instead of hgh, use 100perc cond reduction at 25perc, heal while in kit, and vigor trait (nerfed but still decent) Don’t use bombs in a Zerg, positioning is everything.
Go with dire gear. You will do less condition dmg, but can still kill any class and have way more surv.
Another option is to go power nades.
30/0/0/10/30
Cond caps and aeo cond cleanses greatly diminish pure cond classes in zergs.
Also, no matter what spec you choose, you need a def utility. Either rocket boots or elix s. 5 sec stealth from elixir s has saved me. Countless times.
I dunno. A lot of players like the full footage and not just highlight reels when it comes to fight. And seriously, what is wrong with almost dieing against 2 attackers at once?
As to the dolyaks, I can agree, that is the sort of thing you may wish to edit out.
I meant him + his ally against 1 enemy.
Fair points. My ally was a level 31 guildy, but I thought that eng was decent so I included it. I will focus more on what the target audience wants in the future.
Thanks for the tips.

Return it. Get a GTX 660+
Few months ago I got an HD 7870. Performance was disappointing with GW2 to say the least. I know the benchmarks tests show great things for the 7870, but each game is diff.
Returned it, got a gtx660. Runs great.
