It’s just like there are more important things that need to be addressed in wvw which are waiting for couple of years already without any proper solution, swept under the carpet all the time or just being neglected, but Anet works on gliding .. like .. umm ok really ?
Until Anet will split all 3 game modes to be totally separate : pve, pvp and wvw there is no hope for the proper balance in wvw. Anet’s focus is about raids where you have to stack condis and this makes wvw so kittenly sh**y and unbalanced condi meta….
within that half a year most of the leftovers who still hesitate to finish playing gw2 will quit as well – so the wvw changes are for who? free account users?
anet showed us definately how far in the black hole we are stuck and how much do they care about money but not the players?
and after those 3+ years i dont believe anet in any word stating “fix” as all changes in the past kitten up something else which hasnt been fix for a long time after
it is very sad to watch how the best pearl on the market died in agony after those 3+ years …
HoT killed gw2 – spend more money on gems and feed the money-orientated beast !
nothing will change anyway , been waiting 3 years and it is worse with every patch .. only rage left
Can’t you, pro players, protest ? Like both teams of each match refusing to fight ?
You could still have a winner by running internal matches to determine the team that will cap a point on stream. That would require trust, while there’s money to win, so I don’t expect much…
But I expect absolutely nothing from Anet for the next 2 months, and that’s just infuriating.
this! +1
CANT YOU PRO PLAYERS JUST GO ON STRIKE?! – all of you make an agreement and just demand a fix?
Anet is clearly ALL about the money so this will hit them the most – the kittening wake up call ANET !
maybe if the top pro teams would stop playing this funny “esport” trend and boycot the system the anet would wake the kitten up and sit down for a proper fix – all would benefit
Why can’t you just release the expansion 4 months later but make everything good?
You have to look through the business side not player one. All games now are released as betas (even if they call it release ver) as it will generate more profit which might be lost due to waiting and tweaking/fixing it to be “everything good” version. Anet is not an exception. You paid the money for HoT, but it doesnt work? Who cares … balance is fine.
On already completed commune with .. hero point in any HOT map you will have another option in the conversation menu – “I have an oiled part …” – pick this and you will commune again charging the piece.
I give +1, because somebody is really trying to save wvw, and gives some point of view how it could be done, I don’t even think that anet is thinking about wvw, they will in a few months, when it will be to late, the ppl gone will play other pc games, coming out just right now. F@llout4, Th3 D!v!sion
WvW must be saved…
…
In WvW there were no problems, everyone rolled what he wanted, did what he wanted, it was simple, fun, sometimes challenging, it was everything…
I love it !!! It is so good to run on these BL’s. So smooth, so fast, so beautiful, so intense fight-wise, plenty of pve, no lags, no obsolete graphics, good waypoints, lots of guards , lots of mobs, automatic upgrades so you wont forget to upgrade !!! and … many more awesome features we dont really need in wvw but which are awesome !!! GJ ANET !!
It isnt about fighting DH, it is about how other classes are brainlessly easy in comparison to thief. I do still main thief also since release and I dont even think of planning to switch. I dont have much problem with fighting other classes.
It is just sad how thief players thrill to survive fighting ppl with no experience smashing buttons off cooldowns ..
I still play thief as main in wvw , but as rarely as I play pve , yesterday tried revenant in the new Dragon Stand event and raid – the dmg i can deal with this class with full asc zerker gear is just sick – 95k from sword 3 on a event thorn champion boss (ofc full stacks might and vulner) and constant 30k from same skill sword 3 (and that evade …) on other targets + 7-9k auto attacks from sword 1 .. i know it is pve but …. i somehow feel sad as my main is still thief …. so i can somehow understand ItchigoHarate and his decision. Other classes in comparison to thief are just somehow brainless spam all skills and win …
Can we please receive any feedback from devs/Anet representatives regarding current plans/state of the wvw? Or will you ignore us (the wvw community) for another 2 weeks of massive numbers of complaints posts until another release patch notes stating few or no changes to the current issues the wvw has?
Please ANET, kindly respond as we (the wvw community – your customers) feel ignored in every aspect now.
As bad as WvW can be sometimes, still the best out there.
and the worst thing is having such a pearl on the market, as there is not any other game currently which offer such combat mechanics/rvr (wvw) options, not polishing it and loosing all the potential the game had/has
3+ years now and still there is no proper GVG in the game ….. 5v5 kitten pls
I havent tested this build as i dont like high power, lower crit dmg, the crit chance is low but considering 100% after dodge (and as DrD you dodge-a-lot) + fury from trickery it is ok
As I play wvw organised groups mostly (sometimes zerg) the only thing that needs notice is when fighting in organised group you still need some sustain, de-target ability (stealth), and regen if not coming from group itself. Else you will get focused and no dodge will help you.
Following up on today’s blog post about raid rewards, we wanted to share some details on specific items:
In order to preserve the challenge of raids, we’re disabling the use of a number of items inside raid instances. Many of these restrictions will be familiar, as they’re also disabled in WvW and dungeons. However, we are also disallowing the use of many runes and sigils that provide bonus damage versus particular types of enemies, as well as the potions that give similar effects. Using food and utility buffs inside a raid is perfectly okay, but most other items that give bonus damage or access to new skills beyond your profession have been disabled.
You forgot to add that thief class is disabled for raids.
We should get new elite specialization Trolling – no dmg , no surv, no armour, no escape mechanism, oh .. wait we do not have these anyway .. SB#5 still OP!
SB OP !
sb#1 – OP – 3 bounces – thaaaat fat damage !
sb#2 – OP – the arrow travel so fast it is impossible to move from the damage area
sb#3 – OP – evade on skill? omg omg and that cripple ?!
sb#4 – OP – poison reduces healing effectivness 50% for couple of seconds , waaay too OP
sb#5 fat and OP – blind on teleport?! its too much
See, I want to agree…but all of the shortbow’s attacks are just so slow compared to every other weapon set the thief has it’s kinda a joke. I’ve more often than not outran the SB2 bombs or covered half the distance I would teleport from SB5 by running at signet speed. I would argue that SB4 is the fat damage on the weapon…but having seen all the nerfs over the years to that one skill; kinda makes it seem like we’ve already hit peak nerf on the shortbow.
troll is low with this one my padawan (translation: yes it was a troll post – as i main thief for 3+ years now i couldnt resist to troll for a bit, sorry it wasnt that clear)
oh and have you seen already full guild of chronomancers running with quickness, protection, and all other boons with durations of 1m+ ?? And perma stealth?? And dunno how many portals? NO?!
I agree with you messiah – it is not the thief that should be balanced its all other classes..
SB OP !
sb#1 – OP – 3 bounces – thaaaat fat damage !
sb#2 – OP – the arrow travel so fast it is impossible to move from the damage area
sb#3 – OP – evade on skill? omg omg and that cripple ?!
sb#4 – OP – poison reduces healing effectivness 50% for couple of seconds , waaay too OP
sb#5 fat and OP – blind on teleport?! its too much
It is still hard to get used to new mechanics after almost 2 years playing d/d or d/p sb.
The mobility now is a bit different too and lack of stealth on demand is also awkward
As i use sb instead of d/p or d/d on swap the backstab is gone too
but well now in team fights i can get 5 vaults of 5-6k dmg to 5 targets within few seconds and still get away so not that bad
will try to get some footage soon maybe
for me OOM crashes only in wvw but very common, in pve maps happend maybe once.
In wvw when i see a model as from screens above i know the crash is coming soon
been playing wvw for almost 3 years and maybe had 1 crash before, now i cannot play wvw due to constant crashes
The info given by Anet was not a proposition. It is already agreed statement, which will be implemented live soon.
WvW players? kitten off , play what WE want you to play pvp/pve
Anet please wake up at last… when will you realise that your game is the only one with such wvw system?! POLISH it not RUIN it !
They die every time and I sit and watch while eating popcorn
