This is a post that is ostensibly written to sound reasonable. However, with just a cursory read it can quickly be determined that the author is just another player who refuses to admit their own failings and feels that reading about the game, choosing a metabattle build, or watching youtube videos is enough to autocorrect terrible playing. It isn’t. Also, the fact that they are playing a power shatter mesmer build and not realizing that it makes you nothing but a liability for your team is quite telling.

Guardian block overpowered WVW

in WvW

Posted by: Wisdom.4712

Wisdom.4712

Whenever I’m on my Guardian in WvW I always make sure I’m running my immunity to shouts. It’s very important if you want to be immune to shouts. This ensures that shouts are nullified. Best trait in the game.

On a less sarcastic and snarky note, if you are activating your shouts when a Guard has those big gigantic blue shiny shields up, then perhaps you screwed up. A thought.

All that you can do is wish them well

Spirits turned bitter by the poison of envy
Always angry and dissatisfied
Even the lost ones, the frightened and mean ones
Even the ones with a devil inside

Thank your stars you’re not that way
Turn your back and walk away
Don’t even pause and ask them why
Turn around and say goodbye

All that you can do is wish them well

People who judge without a measure of mercy
All the victims who will never learn
Even the lost ones, you can only give up on
Even the ones who make you burn

Thank your stars you’re not that way
Turn your back and walk away

Don’t even pause and ask them why
Turn around and say goodbye

The ones who’ve done you wrong
The ones who pretended to be so strong
The grudges you’ve held for so long
It’s not worth singing that same sad song

Thank your stars you’re not that way
Turn your back and walk away
Don’t even pause and ask them why
Turn around and say goodbye

All that you can do is wish them well

Even though you’re going through hell
Just keep on going
Let the demons dwell

Just wish them well

When will they nerf the thief mobility?

If you are “literally” being burst down in 1 second by a thief either 1) You were at half HP and didn’t react at all or 2) You were at 100% HP, took your hands off the keyboard to sip your coffee and lost track of time.

Then why isn’t it preferred in higher tiers? Regardless, if you are constantly losing to a condi thief, you’re simply below average.

The OP is nothing but a petulant child running an equally ridiculous build. The conversation with the opposing player basically confirms that he’s an infant.

Thief still balanced around preparedness?

in Thief

Posted by: Wisdom.4712

Wisdom.4712

Yes, as warriors are even worse off since discipline and defense are mandatory in order to be remotely competitive in PvP or WvW, with minor tinkering. I’d wager strength is better than berserker now anyway.

Dang Mesmers

This is quite true. Every time I feel inspired to my play my Mesmer in PvP because of their high mobility and utility, I get frustratingly annihilated.

The point is that it’s greatly exaggerated, not that it doesn’t exist.

“1 or 2 other legitimate real players in every match” = absurd.

I have encountered a grand total of 1 semi-obvious bot in roughly 200 games of ranked play this season. This thread is a gigantic hyperbolic joke. Disregard.

what is the best 1v1 class right now

In my opinion, warrior would be absolutely at the bottom right above necromancer. Both are trash.

Condichrono if you want to stomp.

Potato is correct. Mesmer counters warrior hard. Don’t even bother.

max toughness good or bad?_?

in PvP

Posted by: Wisdom.4712

Wisdom.4712

Maximizing your toughness in this manner is unwise. When you begin climbing above 3000 or so you begin to experience diminishing returns for this stat. Defense in this game is optimized through one’s ability to mitigate damage through careful dodging, blocks, invulnerability, stealth, evades, and boons. I can guarantee if you attempt this on warrior especially you will become insanely frustrated.

the nerf of steal on thief

I have no idea what the original poster is referring to. The damage to steal is unchanged and certainly never did anything close to 4k damage.

What's Wrong with 2 Thieves in Team

in PvP

Posted by: Wisdom.4712

Wisdom.4712

Because thieves have a very limited role in conquest. They can distract by going far and maybe gank in an ongoing 1v1 scenario, but otherwise they die when they get sneezed on.

Sounds like someone just had a few matches where they were woefully stomped hard by a few DD elementalists. Honestly, I don’t get the animosity towards this build. I’ve seen people get wrecked hard as Cel Ele – just like every other spec out there. If you aren’t smart. You die. Simple.

Oh, I’m certain there are many builds better than this one. I was just curious as to what others thought – essentially a hybrid zerk and assassin build. I play casually in PVE ATM.
