spoiling star wars in map chat

Stars Wars will be spoiled that’s simply the way things work, if it’s not here it will be somewhere else. Sorry it matters to you but I really doubt there is a TOS infraction for that.

This. I really hate it when people are so uptight about spoilers (which I go out of my way to find so I can enjoy other parts of the movie and not be worried about stuff like I’ll be less shocked and sad if a character I like died…if only I had some personal story spoilers when I started this game )

that’s your prerogative, but at the same time you should respect everyone who wishes to enjoy the film without ‘spoilers’, which… spoil the experience. hence the name. i truly believe anyone who intentionally spoils star wars for people is heartless and probably a very lonely individual.

DH trap tricks

so i’ve noticed that since alot of DH have realized people just evade through traps harmlessly, they have been dealing with this by exploiting points on the map where you cannot evade.

alot of them will stand on the edge of ledges in spirit rise, the boxes in the corner of clocktower, or any map really, right on the edge of the ledge and drop their traps right on top of themselves, if you try to evade past them you’ll fall off and they will still be able to longbow/true shot you from above

just another cheese tactic for perhaps the cheesiest build ever

Daredevil Interupt Build Guide + Game Play

Posted by: ghost.1804

ghost.1804

sorry man not really impressed.. every variant of p/p i’ve seen maybe does some good burst sporadically, but chews through initiative way too fast to be viable as an all around build. also if you consider how hard it is to actually land an interrupt in pvp (happens once or twice a match maybe) i find the p/p s/p just kind of superfulous tbh

i see alot of thieves use d/d and just stealth everywhere like a glass cannon- i even been dueling some that rock ambush and band of thieves and have a mesmer-like playstyle. there are so many creative things you can do with thief builds, its great.

the build i use is nearly perfect.. but i’ll never tell it to anyone cause then all of you would be using it lol

What's with the vault spam?

in Thief

Posted by: ghost.1804

ghost.1804

i play d/p and staff and basically i use d/p for 1v1 or 1v2 fights, and staff for fights on points or group fights.. in which case using vault a couple times works pretty well. i also use #4 skill alot in group fights cause it actually has a pretty good range and damage mitigation.

vault can be useful to traverse the map occasionally also, like to get away if health is low

however people that just spam that one skill won’t get very far.. and will run out of initiative very fast as some people above said

EscapistsAbsolution VS StaffMaster WHY???

Posted by: ghost.1804

ghost.1804

i agree. condi is the one weakness of daredevil, however there is a trait in acro that can remove conditions every time you are struck under 75%.. i dont know what the ICD on it is tho. that’s basically what i have to rely on because of the build i use. but my build is super fun so that’s okay i guess. i really only have trouble with flamethrower engi’s

i really think anet should consider granting us just a little more condi removal, or like i suggested in another thread that staff #3 skill should clear 1 condition instead of just cripple

edit: this would really help bring us up to par with all the other classes.. i don’t think it’s asking for much

ghost.1804

Yeah bro I use d/p with staff AND i use acro (acro/trickery/daredevil) and i do pretty well. deadly arts does do a bit more damage but you sacrifice survivability in my opinion.The only thing I would like as a thief is a bit more condi removal- I think the #3 daredevil skill should remove all condis instead of just cripple. anyway, my 2 cents.

Reverant Status - Fair or unfair?

in Revenant

Posted by: ghost.1804

ghost.1804

Revenants are balanced imo except for one skill, Unrelenting Assault- which appears to be the favorite skill of every Revenant i’ve ever encountered. I’ve seen it crit for over 15k which is a one shot to many players. It’s on a 12s CD and you evade all damage while doing it as well as hopping all over the place popping in and out of stealth so basically it can’t be countered. I’ve seen plenty of revs that basically spam this, and then when its over, use crystal hibernation, and cycle these two skills back to back so they are basically immune to damage while dealing a great deal of it

for some reason anet saw it fit to give guardians and revenants skills that ultimately become crutches for most players

Quite a few things wrong here.
1. UA can’t one-shot anything technically because…it’s not just one swing.
2. UA can’t be spammed because it has a 12s CD and often fails or you can get CC’d, etc. It also isn’t “popping in and out of stealth”.
3. You can’t just cycle between these two skills; one has a 12s CD and the other has a 25s CD(and roots the Revenant).

At the very least get your facts straight.

1. That’s a semantic issue. You know what I mean.

2. Also a semantic issue. A 12s CD is nothing.

3. 25s CD- again not very long, and since it has a 3 second duration it’s pretty much a 20s CD

The game is over, but noone on my team can leave. Every time we leave, it starts to load heart of mists, but then immediately tosses us back into kyhlo. Pvp match time is locked. very frustrating..

Profanity/hateful speech reaching new peaks

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: ghost.1804

ghost.1804

On that note, I’ll mention that ArenaNet has already deleted my post, even though it included no profanity or otherwise harmful verbage. I find it ironic that this occurred simply because I voiced my opinion, likely because it was contrary to ArenaNet’s opinion. The way they operate occasionally resembles fascism, and it’s quite sad to see. Unfortunately deleting and suppressing something doesn’t make it any less true.

Yeah man, there’s no harmful verbiage in calling everyone who disagrees with your opinion what amounts to a “socially kittened basement dweller.” /s

The way you depicted what I said borders on hyperbole, even if it’s sort of accurate. However, calling someone a “socially kittened basement dweller” is not half as bad as just deleting their opinion entirely. Wouldn’t it be nice if I had that power?

My cup runneth over with irony rn

Sneak Gyro broken?

" Deploy a sneak gyro to provide stealth to nearby allies.

Currently invisible. Ends if you deal damage. Stealth (4s): Invisible to foes.
Duration: 30s
Interval: 3s
Radius: 300
20 second cooldown "

it’s an aoe stealth for the entire team, that lasts 30 seconds, and has a 20 second cooldown. so you can stay stealthed perpetually? i’m aware there’s a gyro that can be attacked, but as soon as it’s destroyed the skill can be used again. kind of broken imo.

add that to Elixir S, Medic gyro and Shock shield and your damage mitigation is frankly kind of nuts.

just telling you what you already know

this is what i use. it works pretty well but requires very quick hands.. i’ve been thinking of swapping fist flurry for signet of agility for even more endurance. fist flurry is hard to use practically because enemies are always moving too much to get all the hits off. may be better for pve. if my health starts getting low i get the hell out of there and drop in again with vault. if they try to run i burst them down with shadow shot/heartseeker, dash out and cripple with impairing daggers. still tweaking it.

in my opinion with a little more work this build has the potential to be meta

will also be experimenting with sword/dagger
