Guild Wars 2

I love the map strategies posts. I’ve been PvPing a ton the last two seasons, and I still don’t know all the intricacies of each map.

Some of the people in this thread should stream their games so that we can see if they are truly gods of PvP and that it’s just their teammates holding them back.

My thief

What armor is that?

Uh-huh.

I really like it too, but I wish we could turn off the shoulders.

Read the rest of the post? Nerfing defensive options and alacrity are indirect buffs to revenants.

Revenant changes aren’t that bad when you consider all the changes the other classes underwent.

In PvP, defensive options on the whole have been decreased, meaning revenants should still be able to train squishies and duel easily. Big team fights will still continue to be a problem though.

In PvE, alacrity has been nerfed heavily, but revenants don’t benefit from alacrity much, which also balances with the sword AA nerf. Revenant utility is still extremely good.

Anet wants people to stop playing dungeons. Why can’t people just accept this?

Because they’re fun?

They’re still there for you to run, so…

If you just want easy gold, it is highly unlikely that Anet will ever increase the liquid rewards from dungeons, even slightly.

Did you even read the post? I said nothing about increasing liquid rewards.

I wasn’t even quoting you there???

My question to you was why you can’t accept that Anet doesn’t want people running dungeons.

When zoomed out a bit on my female norn characters, I see a red line appear on the back of the Winter’s Solstice Outfit. Doesn’t happen on my female human characters.

1/13/2016 EDIT: Looks like it’s been fixed.

Just swap out “No Quarter” for “Invigorating Precision” in the standard meta build, and you’ll have all the sustain you need. You lose 100% up-time on fury and 250 ferocity, but you’ll rarely die.

If you just use Invigorating Precision instead of No Quarter in the Critical Strikes line, you’ll probably be fine staying full zerker gear with scholar runes. Yeah, it sucks to lose perma fury, but it makes maintaining the scholar bonus and survival completely trivial in the jungle.

The torch skills and berserker specialization better be ridiculous if it’s going to compete with PS/EA Warrior.

The undergarments clip through the skirt.

On the largest body type for norn women (the only body type I’ve bothered looked at), the bottom half of the outfit clips through their butts, even while idling. Please fix.

Those trait changes can’t come soon enough. I want maximum personal DPS and good party support.

Can the underwear/spandex things on female characters be affected by one of the dye channels or be changed to a more neutral black, please? The green color on Norn women can really clash with some dye combinations.

Who cares? There is no reason to ever run without a full armor set on, unless you’re some kind of weird (erotic) roleplayer who likes to run around half-naked for whatever reason?

… I’m talking about undergarments that are a part of the outfit.

E is for expansion.

There is absolutely no way the president and game director of Anet reserved 90 minutes at the main theater of PAX South to announce Living World Season 3. It has to be an expansion, or we’re in for some serious cringe.

I just want people to stop saying “Living Story.” It’s “Living World,” kitten it!

I would think WoW’s recent fiasco with their WoD launch would prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that test servers don’t do squat.

Broken, buggy, unbalanced, unstable servers, chock full of poor design decisions – they even started issuing refunds it was so bad. They are still pushing out hotfixes or taking down the servers on an almost daily basis almost a month after launching.

It was on public test servers for 5 months.

Err…
blizzard =! A-net.
You can’t blame a concept for incompetent execution.

Yes, let’s blame Blizzard and discount test servers for not accounting for over 3 million players returning to their game and overloading almost every server. That is not something that would’ve been fixed from test servers.

Anyway, there are actual problems with test servers, such as motivation. Why would players test your content for free unless doing so offered an advantage for their live characters? This is why barely anyone tests world changes in WoW, but elite raiders will flock to test raid bosses as much as possible.

Weekly caps don’t work for player retention or satisfaction. Blizzard tried this the entirety of Cataclysm, and they went back to daily rewards in Mists of Pandaria, although they did leave in reduced rewards for additional runs (up to the weekly Valor cap).

The new Arcing Slice does more damage to targets below 50% health. Were the golems below 50% health?
