Guild Wars 2

gloflop.3510:

Everyone needs roughly 100 matches until he/she is in the “correct” division. This is how the system works. Judging now based on the first impressions is hence unfair.

I hope that the next seasons will to a certain extent base on the previous results in order to mitigate the problems next time.

100 games? Are you kidding me? That’s around 500-1000 hours of play time (Assuming you play out the timer). You are expecting people to do pvp and pvp alone for a month straight in order to start experiencing half-way fair queues.

That aside, its more an issue of how skewed the system is in its balance. If it was easier for these PvE and new players to build classes, we wouldn’t have to “Deal” with them as much. You can follow logic in traits and runes and still come out with a kitten build. Most players that play for some time just take the “Meta” builds because they can’t be kittened to spend the kittened amount of time needed to build a class between trial and error and comparing it to other classes. Not to say either of those are bad or that they shouldn’t exist, but the time required is extreme.

You should not make it solo/duo only. Maybe as a separate queue, but not a standalone thing. Being coordinated is what ranked is about and how are groups to practice for higher play without first testing themselves in the community? I’d have voted yes if it was to add a new system, but its a no from me for replacing the current one.

If you are going stealth, you need a stun break. I suggest running shadow step and using that instead of heartseeker.

Honestly sounds like a good theory, but we won’t know until someo0ne trys it, I say go for it and keep us posted Unless others have numbers/tried it too, to share.

Here’s hoping they see this thread, I really like some of these ideas.

So I quit back a few months ago when the feature pack came out. I was just bored of the game at that point, so I didn’t stay much for the nerfed thieves. So I return for this patch and now I honestly can’t find a way to play thief that is near viable for anything not PvE.

I’m craving some Guild Wars 2 PvP, but of the three classes I have played a ton and leveled to 80 (I hate repaying games, so GW2 must have done something right, I am not an alt-oholic) Ranger, Warrior and Thief. Now I know what you want to say, “Just pay ranger”, but I don’t really connect well with it and with the warrior changes, I don’t really connect with it either. Not to mention, thief was my baby.

So I was wondering if anyone had some solo build I could use. I used to be a D/D thief that would roam/stealth back cap and in a fight rely on assassin signet and basilisk venom to burst a foe to half before heartseekering. I basically hit and ran.

What ever builds you guys got, I don’t mind something cheesy as kitten, all I want is to have fun on my thief again

I’ve been looking at the rewards for the Wintersday Living World and tbh, its not all that great looking. So I thought I would toss out an idea I got for a shield skin.

Its so simple, but totally fits the theme. Not to mention, Candybane greatsword skin where it looks like a half eaten candy cane would be awesome too.

Let me know what you think and make sure this stays up so that anet can implement it :P
