And what is your excuse for complaining about it? Because in that 15m you are in fractals that u cant use glint , it keeps you up at night till the break of dawn? Going to say it again, not that big of a deal, i main rev and i got to used to it a long time ago, everyone talking kitten about it only recently noticed it cause rev is getting alot of hate, This just needs to stop

Just because it is an old part of the game and underwater combat isn’t really being made anymore isn’t an excuse to not develop the revs underwater skills. Underwater combat is still part of the game. It’s just unfinished and why not finish it if all these new specializations are able to use it. It would be like not letting the rev use core skills, instead it had to go herald. And then the reasoning would be something like “well core classes aren’t really being used or worked on much anymore so we figured to not even worry about balancing it or making it work since everyone will be using glint anyway.” And now I’m realizing this was probably the reasoning behind the current revs state….

Please elaborate on how underwater combat has affected YOU, i have heard what you said by a thousand other people claiming the same thing, but does it actually affect you? or are you just trying to find something to pounce on by joining the majority cause everyone says so, Please tell me how many seconds u spent underwater, then tell how much time you spent on rev underwater, seeing as how so many people are complaining and that they quit rev, i highly doubt u guys even spent a single minute underwater, your complaints sound as though you are going to quit if they dont fixed it, yet you probably dont even play the class, just stop with all the hate;stop the bandwagoning on revenant, Yes Renegade is not good especially when compared to other elites which are so flashy or get tons of skill but i see everyone attacking the fact the Revenant itself is not a good class which is stupid because i play it for 400h and i can say it is a Tier 1 Class in pve/pvp/wvw

So all in all, renegade isnt great, but all the negativity about rev is honestly uncalled for, sure hammer 2 glitches into terrain sometimes and i CaNT uSE x LeGEnd UNdErwATeR, it is really not that big of a deal, stop trying to join the crowd please..

Dude, aside from playing the demo myself I was watching some streaming.

No one was playing the Renegade in PvP/WvW. No one. Not the casters, not the other players in their teams, not the foes. And the straw poll in reddit put the Renegade in last position for something. I’ve been watching players like Phantaram and Sindrener extracting some ok builds from their Weaver and Deadeye, some decent builds from Scourges… I didn’t saw a single valuable lesson with our spec.

All i can say is people should keep an open mind about renegade, many just like to jump in the crowd; push the majority opinion; trying to sound smart by jumping on the same argument over and over again, so sick of hearing that especially how rev is not as bad as everyone put it out to be; be it renegade or HoT builds

And what is your excuse for complaining about it? Because in that 15m you are in fractals that u cant use glint , it keeps you up at night till the break of dawn? Going to say it again, not that big of a deal, i main rev and i got to used to it a long time ago, everyone talking kitten about it only recently noticed it cause rev is getting alot of hate, This just needs to stop

Kidel.2057:

Your premise is right, but given the fact that weaver just got 40+ new skills (including underwater) and most of the other new elite specs also work underwater (Scourge was patched in the latest update), the fact that the Revenant can only use 2/6 legends (so 2/6 sets of utility skills) is giving the idea that the class has been abandoned by the dev team for some reason.

We don’t really care about underwater combat itself, but it’s a matter of principle. How comes every other elite spec works? How comes that Ele and Guardian got 20-40 new skills that work underwater and have AMAZING animations (while we got dancing puppets)?

2 years of updates on Revenant were mostly nerfs instead of additions that were needed.

as power rev main, i still play it now in wvw and its still strong and viable , those nerf were to tone down rev power , it is now balanced not underpowered as you are thinking , it is balanced, it was overpowered, staff 5, sword 2 was doing insane damage it was so hard to counter it consistently .

as for comparison to other class, yes sadly renegade is bad not going to lie and juxtaposition between renegade and other elites makes it look worse, but if people would just take more time in buildcraft for rev, eg. you dont necessarily need shortbow or to use the new legend to make a good build, as with all elite specs, it is ment to fill niche you dont have to use all the new stuff you get

So as a rev main, i see everyone complaining about underwater combat and how we cant use legends etc, tbh is it even a big deal? How often do you do underwater combat at max level in pve?? probably only during the underwater fractal. Please stop trying to make a big deal of a stupid thing, just trying to find the opportunity to complain about a class when it is taking kitten for being underwhelming is just trying too hard to join the crowd. For all those who say energy cost should be removed from weapons,it would be so broken in pvp/wvw, u would be complaining about hammer revs with 25might(glint + might face + fury face+ rune of strength + trait that gives u 2might/fury gain) spamming their skills because of no energy cost (eg. hammer 2 (uses only 5 has 4 sec cd, does 5-10k in pvp in zerkers) and if you say that energy cost wont make a difference, the uptime of rev skills like glint/ventari/shiro will be insane, imagine a rev with 50 energy in shiro = 10 sec of quickness(probably even longer from glint natural boon duration) on top of him spamming all his weapon skills because we need to kittening buff it by removing energy cost. Ok next for those complaining about utilities, having 2 set of fixed utilities is not great and it certainly has a playstyle for each legendary WHICH IS EXACTLY THE POINT, rev is about playing to a playstyle while in a legend, eg. shiro use for disengage/aggression , glint. utility / burst , on top of that u get 2 sets of heals, elites and utility, IT IS A TRADEOFF for having 1 chosen set of utility, it isnt weaker as many people think, shiro dodge is a stunbreak condicleanse with no cd(technically 3.5s cd) but imagine if weapon skills didnt have energy cost, people would be spamming dodges for days and still do damage (haha good thing thats not the case haha). So all in all, renegade isnt great, but all the negativity about rev is honestly uncalled for, sure hammer 2 glitches into terrain sometimes and i CaNT uSE x LeGEnd UNdErwATeR, it is really not that big of a deal, stop trying to join the crowd please..

i do not know how it happened but apparently it is possible. i just Waypoint into Bay on my HomeBL ( SBIBL ) then walked to tower without seeing the walls

edit: also added a picture of me in the wall

lol got desertion for that even after coming back? wtf how is that even my fault

So i was gold 2 in late dec and i stopped playing gw2 for about 2 weeks , to find out my effective rank is god kitten bronze 1?? what the hell?? ONLY 2 WEEKS thats not a long time, i might have been sliver but BRONZE 1 FOR NOT PLAYING IN 2 WEEKS?? Then i lost the 1st match i played and lost 50 POINTS ??? about 3 kittening win gone like that just cause i didnt play for 2 weeks. What The kitten.

Edit: so anet has said that you will still be matched against gold players.
as a side note, i really think that losing a match with decay is too harsh , i lost 50+ points in 1 game thats is about 3-4 Wins, its really alot, is it what u intended??

Map completion no reward bug

Not sure if these has been mentioned , so i have 100% map completion ( central tyria ) and i completed verdant brink map but didnt get any reward ? ps heart of thorns is great

i am using a razer naga and recently i am having problems with the right click especially when turning my camera , it tends to glitch out and stop right clicking for a split second then continue please fix lol thx

yea but not only on leaderboards lol , when i play pvp matches , i have x wins to x games but after the games they never update enither ..

i was playing some games unranked and ranked and i realised that the stats ingame and on leaderboards didnt change i still got glory points though. as far as i remember , i have never left a game or gained any dishonor .. so what is happening?

as the title already says… lol ,i thought this was fixed but its back now well at least for me idk why it resizes anyone care to explain

Would be great if you guys could make map completion more rewarding.How?

Map completion now just rewards you with a bunch of items but what if , lets say you complete cursed shores map and the reward was maybe you take x less damage from risens or you deal x more damage to risens or if you are in cursed shore you have x% chance of getting better items from looting and chest or bonus xp and karma from events even though some stuff may be exploited i think its a good start to make map completion more rewarding.

I am not really sure where to post this but just got back and i tried patching the new patch , my anti virus said there was trojan horse with guild wars 2 and deleted it?i downloaded it from the official site , anyone can help?

Since patch , it feels like my backstab has been hitting for way less with same spec/gear probably cause the zerker nerfs i presume?Now thieves feels kinda pretty useless without their burst with zerker gear lol

Not sure if theres a thread on this already or just me but i often get stuck sometimes after using a leap(mesmer staff #2) especially near walls which leaves me immobilize till i die , i check my conditions , no immobilize debuff was shown i’m not sure if its bug or just immobilize icon not showing , please fix!!

just curious , what is the human guardian wearing on selection

Why can’t i cast spells that summon clones and phantasms when not targeting anyone?

Definably agree with longbow and its abilities are rather unexciting and shortbow too , maybe hoping ranger could be come more of a “micro” class with pets and traps while staying back but lesser survivability , so we can define good ranger , that have decent positioning and the ones that have great positioning and situation awareness

lol so how do you play spvp if noone cares

i have been playing alot of spvp recently , i always noticed my teammates , when i am on the losing of cause , always tend to just leave because there are no penalties and the winning team usually has “spectators” waiting to join any moment there is an avaliable slot , i really hope we could have some penalty for people who constantly leave , i know there is an auto balance but it gets frustrating to go 2v4 or 3v4(no auto balance) and also the maybe the winning team can not have more players than the losing making it fairer

well lets say u own a dynamic spinal blade and you have 3 characters , sure u can only play 1 character at a time but then assume u have the skin on all 3 characters , it would be 3x common since all your character has it in , its like if a person has 3 different outfits each one of the outfit is different and unique but lets say u have the same shirt for every outfit then it would look rather common, hope u know where im coming from

No I have no idea where you’re coming from… seriously no idea at all.

gordonlsj.4391:

amount visible same as before but amount of times seen is more

Ok that makes slightly more sense. But no, why can’t shouldn’t I be able to reuse my skins, that I earned / purchased on more than one character? It might increase visibility, but it doesn’t devalue it.

a few items like molten jackpack , holographic dragon wing are going down in price lol and i frankly own a few holographic dragon wings and i also made a few spinal blade back for my other characters but now..

amount visible same as before but amount of times seen is more

well lets say u own a dynamic spinal blade and you have 3 characters , sure u can only play 1 character at a time but then assume u have the skin on all 3 characters , it would be 3x common since all your character has it in , its like if a person has 3 different outfits each one of the outfit is different and unique but lets say u have the same shirt for every outfit then it would look rather common, hope u know where im coming from

idk but isnt this devaluing skins in the game and making past event items more common and less unique , i kind of feel this change is not the best , hope you guys can tweak it a little so it doesnt devalue stuff in game and rarity or maybe give some compensation lol
