Class Advice 2.0 - Sorry!

my advice would be – play each class for at least 10 pvp matches, use the preset builds and read through them before you play. if you’re hating a class, stick with it for the 10 matches, then list it on the noooo list. Keep going and you’ll get there! i would love to invest time into 1 character, but im a couple of years into playing, ive got 11 characters level 80 haha, and i still couldnt decide until i tried doing a set number of pvp matches with each class

I would like to purchase HoT + the gems for half price, but i don’t want all the extra stuff as it means nothing to me, then i’d be happier buying the expansion, can this be made an option please?

Perhaps you weren’t around for Teq version 1.0….

It’s the other bosses that need attention.

Noo I wasn’t, but teq atm isn’t even fun :/ must have been terrible before
I feel like all bosses would need this kind of redesign

This is unfortunately the side effect when you remove the holy trinity and questing and replace it with world events that don’t require much else other than just a tiny tiny bit of coordination and then 11111111111111111111faceroll*

The entire structure of the game is doomed to be what it is for good, it’s alright I suppose, entertaining for sure, but there’s really no meat to the game, no longevity.

People will diss the holy trinity and other mechanics they decided to do away with to be “different” but a lot of those things allow players to really have to rely on one another (despite how hard it may be at times) and around that it’s possible to create challenging and enriching content. But for right now its zerg zerg zerg- downed- die- wp, run back 111111111111111111….. etc. Oh here come the white knights, so i’m leaving.

I feel like it’s fixable though, just force people into situations with roles that need to be filled, but with less people so it’s not just number dependant,

thanks for your input btw!

What do you guys think?

So this is basically one more “raid plz!” topic, right?

Considering the current technology in the game, I don’t think that would be even possible right now. And the lack of new dungeons in HoT show how ArenaNet is focusing more on open world content, not instanced content.

I replied to your comment, but I also had more to say! Haha

I’m suggesting basically adding boss maps, which could be open all the time, but with lower amounts of people on. I don’t think this actually would class as raids or whatever you mean because it would be the same as it is now, just less zerg dependant

@test I guess so in a way, but not so much raid as you wouldn’t have to be in a premade party to take part, you could still stumble upon it while exploring

Explanation: for the bit about splitting up to defend laser bits, I know you need people to split up currently, but it’s such a zerg that it doesn’t feel like it’s too important, I’m talking about each person really making a difference, and requiring professions to evenly distribute themselves (roughly) to succeed. Basically – a bit harder, and more….. Of a struggle. So you feel like destiny’s edge defending snaff while he tried to take over the dragons mind, could even involve them too, as they are dragon champion hunters

OK so I just thought about tequatl and how to beat him you need tons of people, a mindless zerg, and the fight is never interesting. Also if you don’t get on the right map then you’re screwed, and I’ve disconnected from the perfect map with friends on so many times, minutes away from teq spawning.

So I was thinking, how could you make it more fun, more accessible to people with bad PCs that can’t completely handle zergs, easier to participate in without having to wait in a map for an hour beforehand?
Idea is simple, there could be another mini map for the world event, accessible through a portal or something that comes up at the correct time, and then the boss is inside the map. Limit the amount of people able to join a boss map to 30-50 (also gives you a little community, making the event more fun) , and you could make the boss fights require more complex organisation, or more things to actually do and more roles to fill, so when you kill the boss you actually feel like you’ve achieved something.

Tequatl – guarding of the laser would be more fun if there was a need to split up roughly into even groups to defend the laser pieces, or if you needed people to run ammunition from somewhere to each of the cannons to keep the shield down. Obviously this is very early stage ideas but I think it would be much better, and you could still have things affecting the gw2 normal world before/after the event. Only the final boss would be in a separate instance (like the new wyrm fight thing seems to be)
What do you guys think?

What class should i main? :/

hey guys, thanks for taking the time to read this.

so i have pretty much a character for every class, all 80 except thief and ele which are 6 and 40 respectively.

i find myself switching between characters so much and i just wish there was one i could fall in love with, so sometimes i like to have others decide for me. I’ll write some things i like to do and my kind of playstyle below.

i like:
dealing damage quickly (bursty)
being highly mobile
being useful in dungeons
being able to support my team
being able to survive, not just be a pure squishy, i like to be reasonably tanky
being reasonably simple to play (basically – not ele, dislike!)

wondering if anyone has any advice on how to settle for a class, i would much prefer to be in love with one class than keep switching between them all…. i want to get ascended armour and maybe a legendary weapon for something one day, but if i keep rerolling then ill never get there.

all help is greatly appreciated, even if you just read this and leave! so thank you!

no idea what class to play

I have multiple level 80’s, with one level 69, but i still keep making new characters cus i cant seem to stick to and choose 1 class to learn and focus on.

i have;

lvl 80 engineer
lvl 80 guardian
lvl 80 necromancer
lvl 80 warrior
lvl 80 ranger
lvl 50 thief
lvl 69 elementalist.

basically i mostly play spvp, but i do enjoy roaming in wvw.
i like seeing big numbers for damage and dropping enemies

any class / builds that you might recommend? i know its hard to choose for me and people will say i should just play what i enjoy, but i really cant choose and i prefer if other people chose for me haha.

if you could add reasons for the choice i would really appreciate it!
