Guild Wars 2

And here he goes again…. Ok, give it a couple months, see if mesmers dominate the leaderboards… If they are, devs please take a look, if not…. well self explanatory…

The absolute stupidity is nerfcalling without testing. Especially when its your own class… I just don’t get it!

If you want a balanced pvp game there are plenty of fps to play. There everyone are the same (clones) and balance is well… Perfect! That is the only way to keep true balance. Everyone who has played mmo’s for a while know mmo’ balance is not static, it comes in waves of nerfs and buffs…

GW2 will never be an esport… Just forget it! Try to have fun and enjoy the buff while it lasts without trying to self sabotage!

So after we get nerfed to the ground patch after patch and a really nice buff pops up we should start screaming to get rid of it? Two options: a) You are trolling, not really maining mesmer b) You lack a reasonable ammount of brain cells. And why the hell should everything be balanced on spvp?? That has lead to mesmers being nerfed to hell and back in the first place. And really this is not unbalancing at all given the current state of mesmers. Ask for a nerf after we get fixed, not before…

I am working on Ascaronian set, it gives Pow/tough/vit on all pieces… have chest and legs so far.

I have the traits that give adrenaline on shouts (3 shouts 20-30 sec cd) and the 20% reduction on F1 skill from disc. I now slam F1 every 7 secs.

An alternative build would be 30 0 30 10 0 Using signet of rage for fury (f1) and Stomp and bulls charge (with physical training)… stomp aoes for around 2k then. Forgo I also of course use the signet elite…

Not sure how much dps I would gain by going 30 in power compared to 0 and instead going 30 disc for the 2 sec reduction on F1.

I am mostly farming DEs in Orr with this (it is sturdy enough) but think I will be working on pow/tough/health armor/items for running hammer in dungeons…

I almost never weapon swap with this setup…

I am now playing my warrior with 20 prec, 20 def, 30 disc and berserker gear using Hammer exclusively… trying to get the most of the great F1 skill. Im autoattacking for around 2k average and F1 hits for around 2.5-3k aoe.

Anyone have a good hammer PVE build?

Hi, have a lv 47 mesmer I play with my wifes ranger. We only PVE and while questing together never is problematic, I am a bit of a min-maxer and like optimizing. I have tried all the weapon combinations and traits available to my level and am a bit torn between staff and GS as main weapons.

Since lv 40 i have used staff with 20 points illusion and the rest in chaos. Very survivable and decent dps (with illusionary elasticity).

Am now thinking about going with power/prec/crit gear and 20 points in power trait (GS training), 30 illusion (elasticity and illusionary persona) and 20 precicion (clone on dodge) and shattering after summoning berserker (and clones). So far shatter dmg seems pretty lackluster but I read it should be pretty strong. Is this a viable PVe build? What would be the preferred point distribution as I level?
