Guild Wars 2

Good evening guys, I detest match up fixing.
Today most of the major WvW guilds on FSP decided to from an Alliance with Gandara. To the extent that one guild will try to fill up the gandara border with afk’ers to prevent others from joining that border.

So if you are on Desolation and wondering how and why people are behaving like they are , this is why.

PS. This doesn’t mean Desolations behaviour in tanking rating until they dropped into silver was any less disgusting.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but you guys were complaining because they nightcapped you and now you are celebrating because you nightcapped them?

We got night capped yes and then people were extremely smug about it, both here and in game. Claiming it wouldn’t matter if we were actually playing the same hours as they’d beat us badly anyway.
So yes a “couple” of us put that to the test and it ended up with them barely being able to keep their own stuff in EB and getting rolled on all the borders.
A couple being less than half of their number before someone asks about that.

So I am still tuned in, any updates?

New day, new problems. After 2 messages in map chat in LA I have been suppressed for more than an hour now.
This system is quite kitten finding a group/members for high level fractals is already a pain and add this ridiculous suppressing to it and it’s afk waiting for someone else to advertise.
Either implement a separate channel for LFG requests or do something about this god awful system.

I have had multiple encounters with the “excessive” stage of your spam filter while normally talking to others in map chat. Now regularly see it when typing in guild chat and sending a message every few minutes to look for a fractals party.

I am not spamming, just having a normal conversation and yet I keep getting this really annoying spam protection thing enabled. Fine, you guys don’t like spam, but having normal conversations with people in a MMO is the bare minimum interaction you should be able to expect.

Please up the amount of lines you can send before your anti spam script goes banana’s on people, thanks~

Your total HP/sec from regen is irrelevant. Making that number bigger doesn’t matter. If you have a choice of 100 hp/sec regen or a burst heal that turns out to be 150 hp/sec if you’d averaged it out, you choose the latter or you’re making a mistake. The “it starts working immediately when you take damage” argument doesn’t hold water. The only real advantage as stated above is not having to cast it, but if you’re a melee warrior I promise you’re going to have time to cast it.

So when the facts don’t work for your idiotic opinion; “they are irrelevant”, that is a clear argument winner you got there mate.
But wait , let’s throw in some totally fictional numbers in there for good measure.
Very well done, pat yourself on the shoulder.

My signet heals for 205 per second, 5125 per the 25 second cool down of mending. The on use is 3470.
My mending heals for 5701.

I’d say it’s prettykittengood for PVE leveling and events , depending on the dungeon encounter I swap between those two.
Regen + oh kitten heal vs the removal of 2 conditions, seems pretty well tuned to me.

Right… if you are dying to 1 mob extra pulls, you likely need to look into the mirror iso to arena net for balance changes.

While I agree the healing is slightly weak, if you are not using the regen signet as your healing ability, you are doing it horribly wrong for farming,leveling and dungeons.
It regens roughly double the amount you’d get from actively spamming your healing ability. Just do not use the activation heal unless you really have no other option.

15 points in Defensive is an absolute no brainer, regens for tons with only a little constraint in adrenaline management.

I haven’t needed a single gearpiece with defensive stats and or defensive trait other than the regen to littery chain farm anywere, even in Orr before enough people were high enough lvl to actually kill the group events there so you’d have to eat a lot of enviromental dmg while fighting mobs.
If you forgo the adrenaline ability spam for a bit, you can easily take 2/3 mobs hitting on you while you manouver them into your kill position.

Your second weaponset isn’t just for show, you are expected to actively use it to mitigate the incoming dmg and/or kite.
If you are having difficulties managing the shield, the horn is an excellent alternative for hairy situations. The number 5 ability roughly nets you 2 extra dodges, the number 4 ability paired with your Signet of Rage gives you nearly 100% uptime on swiftness, for quick manouvering, positioning and traveling.

I think warriors need some tweaks, but I think most of your post reflects poor play style rather than issues with the profession.
