Guild Wars 2

Seems like you want some equality. Let’s aslo make condition damage scale off a stat like healing power, also lets make weakness effect condition damage in a way, oh and let’s change all the damage reduction food to reduce condition damage to while we’re at it. Also seeing as the list of things that gives out protection is far bigger than what gives resistance, let’s make resistance more available to other classes as well.

After that you can revert the blasting light field changes back, well you could just remove cleanses in general since those aren’t fair.

Great suggestion by op 10/10.

I wanna hear more about how Karl applies condis to a door

I believe Karl dropped the ball and leaked what the WvW team has been working on. Soon everyone will be able to apply condis to doors inorder to help the ktrains move along faster, in return increasing the loot/hr. Then the skirmish rewards/UI changes that we all voted for will be complete, and then we will finally get another poll.

You have to complete the provision masters line to access the recipes.

You’ll still be able to get the wings, even with the considerable league changes coming with Season 5.

Also if my memory serves me correctly, the season ends on October 3 at 12ish AM (not 100% sure on this but I believe the previous seasons ended around that time). So you won’t be able to get the last set of daily matchups. The achievements doesn’t reset though so you can easily finish it when season 5 comes around.

Victory points are not 2 for first, 1 for second, 0 for last. They are 3 for first, 2 for second, 1 for last. Also it’s been two days into the matchup, for all we know your server could have stronger mid week coverage and could pull ahead over the next few days. If the matchup stays lopsided like that, then changing the nubmer of victory points earned wont change much. Not being able to pull ahead in a skirmish in any time zone seems to be more of a population issue.

In your chat box, click the downward facing arrow beside your tabs name. That should bring up a little list where you can uncheck combat.

It’s a bug and they are aware of it.

Helasia.6871:

Currently, Resistance is mostly exclusive to Warrior and Revenant, and the latter barely uses it due to the legend being pretty mediocre. As for toning down boon/condition output, that simply won’t happen after the release of HoT. It’d require a complete rework of multiple traits and skills that pulse boons, and that’s a lot more complicated than simply giving us a new condition. As well, this one is very centered towards Mesmer and Necro, so almost no other class will have access to it.

Adding a new condition won’t only effect PvP, it effects everyother game mode. Just because something like resistance isn’t an issue in PvP doesn’t make the issue nonexistent. Fixing some of the underlying balance issues maybe complicated, but that doesn’t mean they should be looking at throwing a quick Band-Aid on it.

Adding things to counter pre-existing things is what creates power creep, it creates and arms race. Example, condis were getting out of hand so they added resistance and now resistance is getting a bit out of hand on some classes. They need to tone down the amount of boon and condition output, not keep adding more.

Oh this guy, pretty sure he’s hacking. He was flying over walls at SOS EB keep the other day, he’s on Yaks Bend. You can send the players information to exploits@arena.net along with screen shots and videos.

I don’t seem to be having any issues with earning daily achievement points. Have you checked to see if you’ve capped out your daily achievement points? You are only able to earn a total of 15,000 through dailies and the retired monthlies. In the hero panel, under the achievements tab, hover your mouse over your total AP in the top left hand corner. If your dailies and monthlies added together equal 15,000 you will no longer earn daily AP, but you are still able to earn the 2 gold reward/bag of spirit shards.

I think OP is referring to the server links. Basically when the servers were relinked, a few servers were over or to close to the population threshold.
Simplified Example: (Numbers are made up, also this is just my understanding of how it works.)
Let’s say threshold is 1000.
Server 1: 1200
Server 2: 1050
Server 3: 950
Server 4: 750
Server 5: 700
Server 6: 700
Server 7: 650
Server 8: 600
Server 9: 500
Server 10: 500
Server 11: 400
Server 12: 300
Server 13: 200
Server 14: 100
Server 15: 100

Since the threshold is 1000, ideally you want all the linkings to be close to 1000 without going over. So we end up with something like:

Server 1: 1200
Server 2: 1050
Server 3: 950
Server 4+15: 850
Server 5+14: 800
Server 6+13: 900
Server 7+12: 950
Server 8+11: 1000
Server 9+10: 1000

The server linking takes place every two months, so if a staked server (1,2,3) happens to lose population in that time period it’s just tough luck with how the system is now. Having a dynamic system/more frequent linking would be nice but Anet has said that would require them to pull devs/resource away from other bigger projects.

I believe they addressed this awhile back.

The Tier 1 Weapons will be made available in an upcoming Reward Track, much like the armor already is.

We haven’t fully decided how to distribute the T2 Weapons and Armor yet. Though, we are currently leaning towards players purchasing them with a currency that they’d earn as a match reward. We may also set rank requirements for the various pieces, so you’d need to be a relatively high rank(1-2k) to purchase a full set.

LazyDad.2037:

ok so help me out.

I am running dagger/warhorn in wvw. I was earth/water/tempest

With this you go air (drop earth).. So I cast my air overload and I have to wait for the full channel correct? once done, I swap to fire, do a burning speed and I should be able to flip right back and overload air again??

For real?

Exactly!
And since the damage pulses of OL-Air are very likely to crit while you are in fire you are almost guaranteed to continue the circle. If you need to be extra sure or run a build with less percision (for whatever reason) you can also use a sigill of intelligence.

If you are running earth/water/tempest you cannot do this. It requires the Fresh Air trait which is a grandmaster in the Air line.

HazyDaisy.4107:

HoD has won every T4 match so far, in fact the only match they haven’t won since merger is their first one when they were in a T3 match. Having the biggest server campaign on the smallest servers complaint thread against the middle server may look heroic. But trying to complain about one claim from the middle server when the biggest server bum rushed the smallest servers T3 ebg keep last night and many nights before with 40+ really leaves the HoD campaign with no legs to stand on. Your whole pairing right now is match manipulation, because your partner isn’t ranked below 12th according to Anet. But yet somehow that’s fair, and Anet claiming a tower isnt? Give me a break!

FYI I’m not on HoD/Ebay nor was I complaining about the the match-up or the population balance. I was stating that Anet claiming objectives for a server hasn’t helped them significantly, like some people in this thread are suggesting. The guild claim buff for Anets guild is exactly the same as every other guild in the game. If their buff gave anymore stats than other guilds, then yes it would be a problem but it does not so it is not match manipulation.

Heibi.4251:

I just don’t like the idea of an Admin for the whole kittening game using his/her Admin gained privileges to influence the outcome of the game. Like I have said, and apparently haven’t read a word of it, ANeT reps should remain impartial. And claiming objectives as an ANeT rep is not impartial.

What admin gained privileges are they using to influence matches? Anet claiming objectives like every other player/guild is able to, does not influence a mach at all. Not sure if you’ve noticed but Anet claiming things for NSP/SF hasn’t helped them much since they have come in second to HoD/Ebay 3 – 4 in a row now.

The larger balance updates are set to happen on a quarterly cycle – every 3 months – and in-between the PvP seasons. The last update happened on April 19, 2016 right after PvP season 2 so the next update should happen around July 12, 2016. The date is not concrete and is speculation on my part, but that’s generally the cycle.

You earn 1000 WXP for capping SM. As the above post have mentioned regular XP is not obtainable in WvW anymore. Guess the WvW wiki just hasn’t been updated. This link gives you a break down what ways to earn WXP.

Yes, you have to queue as a guild team.

The mission has to be started before you enter the match. So party up with your guildies, enter a queue for ranked or unranked, then start mission.
