Guild Wars 2

Your game’s pvp is absolute garbage. I have never wanted to pull my hair out over a games pvp as much as I do with this one. I have played pure f2p games that are more balanced then what this game has.

Issues:
1) You have to much spammable CC with no diminishing returns. You have blinds, immobolize, stuns, daze, launched, knockbacks. Ok, you get the point. This should never happen in a pvp game as there are way to many reasons for a player to take their hands off the keyboard. The worst part is there are classes with burst potential who have access to all of these. That is not balance, there is no high risk high reward set in place.

2) Passive procs. Get rid of these, make the player have to think about what they do, not have things happen for them.

3) Give better build diversity, buff the dead skills, specifically the ones that focus on giving teammates boons and getting rid of there conditions. This game should focus on teamplay, not being selfish hog 1 man army builds.

4) Redesign blocks, and what is blocked by terrain. No class should be blocked for more then 3seconds + having access to any for of CC. Reward them for performing timed Evasion + knowing when to use a block instead.

5) Fix conditions or offer better counter play. They deal damage to quickly and if a team drops their conditions on you its basically game over unless you have cures. But the potential of them being restacked on you is high so theyl be back on you while you suffer long cooldowns for cures. Offer dedicated condition clearing builds for teamplay, a possible solution.

6) Aoe Circles, Lower the radius on them. Dropping circles on a point should not go rewarded. Especially given that a lot of the circles take up the entire conquest zone.

I posted this a long time ago and most of the respond is learn to dodge or evade? yeah good luck on dodging and evading those 4 to 5 AoE circles and CC

It was already nerfed in pvp by 10% on july 26th it used to be stronger ppl really need to learn to back off when a warrior goes into berserk.

They want easy kill you know.. can’t believed people still asked for this skill to be nerfed.
warrior was nothing before this skill reworked.

Fix the dual axe first before making warrior wield dual dagger.

Viper’s is going to be the best for condi warrior. Wanderers does not have any condition stats, it is power, vitality, toughness, and concentration so I’m not sure if you listed that by mistake. As for Dire’s it is condi but it’s also toughness and vitality. Therefore, Viper’s is your best choice. You did not say what game mode but my answer is from a PvE perspective.

Sorry my bad i’m building this for pve. I enjoy my warrior in pvp playing as LB/sword/shield that’s why i’m making a condi warrior in pve too. And i love the sword MH too bad its not that good as physical weapon for dps.

I enjoy playing my warrior as condition i’m tired of zerker build. Which is better viper or wanderers or dire stat for condi warrior?

Warlord.9074:

I have had some issue with burst skills going off after I use one and then switch weapons could just be me. That and king of fires is bugged.

Here i thought it was my keys broken but others experiencing it too.

TL ; DR

• Sell different animations / stances for each weapon* and different idle stances, basicly let us buy and replace animations for gems .they wouldn’t be too hard to introduce and some of the animations are already ingame like the female greatsword running animation

Oh I would LOVE this kind of stuff. Things that add more customization always a huge boon to any MMO. Aion had some new running and dodge animations that were so awsome I’d love the same sorta thing in guild wars.

It would need a new UI though to implement an option somewhere to toggle these animation presets on or off and has a slew of other restrictions that’d have to be taken account for (like a new system to implement)so it’d be a huge task if it wasn’t pre planned for the game

I’d buy power customization packs too but then you will hear all the pvpers cry that they can’t tell blue fire from a guardian apart from fire from a warrior or some other rather lame excuse that I am not going to debate. I’d love a emerald colored mesmur power set.

I second this too.

Hunter.4783:

So perhaps instead of nerfing the class because your team (and yourself ) can’t find the dodge key perhaps they need to learn proper pvp play?

How to dodge multiple DH trap coming from 2 or 3 DH in a point and if you try to run you will lose the point unless your talking 1vs1 the game is not balance in 1 vs 1 there will always 1 teammate that will help that DH and you will be 1vs2 the dh now can lay traps while the other will pressure you. To make DH traps balance they have to put 1 sec cast or 2 for laying traps just like in ranger in guild wars 1.

My suggestion is for us to have an option to turn off those effect. I don’t enjoy the game when i can hardly tell whats going on.

I played Revenant since HoT released until May this year and i main a warrior since gw2 released. I can tell you that in pvp i can kill any warrior and whatever warrior can do revenant can do better the only time i have to think is if the warrior is condition build but that was before this meta. On this meta using the warrior condi build i can easily kill revenant power/shiro build because of the class lack of condi removal. All in All i enjoy both class but revenant still have the upper hand unless you are spec to condi build warrior. I still main my warrior and never looked back.

I main a warrior since guild wars 1 in fact my only class in my guild wars 1 account is a warrior and created dervish when warrior become so hard to use for farming. My question is if i play pvp and sometimes i use my Whirlwind skill even my opponent is not doing something to avoid it just stand there my whirlwind does not deal any damage. But when i fought other warriors and they have like 80-100 ms most of their whirlwind attacks hit me in my revenant. is it the latency?

Yes i know we can use our telegraph skill in our advantage. But isn’t fun if we can see and act base on the enemies actions. I don’t know maybe i still have a hangover of Blade and Soul combat that most of the actions of my opponent are telegraph and you can read it base on the animation. Or maybe its just hard to see some animations in guild wars 2 because of too many skill effects in the screen.

Any balance class will look OP into the hands of a skilled players.

lucadiro.4519:

War is designed to be telgraph. It has stances, blocks, mobility, very good condi cleans, great susistain and good damage, both condition and poweer, to compensate it.

But you are right. Lot of other classes’s skills should have been designed telegraphed, but surely not blink and blocks, since they need to be instant to be any usefull.

Sorry that came out wrong, i mean we supposed to see if the enemy is blocking i’m not sure if its just me or my screen is full of skill animations effects that is hard to know what your opponents are doing or casting. Whoever design the warrior class is brilliant that guy supposed to design the whole classes in gw2. And aren’t we an E-SPORT game most of my friend playing Dota 2 and LoL doesnt even follow the pvp in gw2 they can’t tell whats going on in my screen.

Why not other classes skills are telegraph like warrior? its really difficult to tell if my opponent is about to block or blink or whatever they are going to do next. In Blade and Soul most of the skills are telegraph why arenanet couldn’t do that?

The only thing i hate right now in BnS is the bots. The combat is great well i love action combat game.

He’s just saying that you should have to be skilled at pvp in order to get the backpiece, and, in fractals, you need to be good in order to get that backpiece too, right?

The thing is if you are good and 3 or 4 of your team mates are bad or no idea at all you will still get rekt.

Well lets play the maths game WOOOHOO. Say you were playing a game like hearthstone which has alot of RNG innately in it. You might beat the best player in the world for a game or two the same way you might have bad teammates in plenty of games BUT eventually over the course of lets say 20 games all the RNG becomes less of a variable as your own individual deeds start to have higher relevance so the world’s best hearthstone player would crush you. You can blame your teammates for a game’s loss but if you are losing more than winning in 30 games, the only common variable is you my friend : ).

Now let’s play the statistics game: how many random players in the enemy team? 5. How many random players in your team 4 +you. Assuming you are good that means on average the enemy team is more likely to have 1 more bad player per game than you as they have more randoms so… yeah, gl with ranked!

When i say bad team mates what i mean is they run around like a lost kitty or instead of capping points they will just leave the point to chase people i played lots of matches with that kind of players they ignore capping and chose chasing the enemy team and for that causes me to lost pips. You wouldn’t believe if i tell you that i played a match where they leave the point uncapped and chase enemy players.

So do I get to keep my Legendary badge for the next season?

Badges stay until the next season starts. So enjoy your badge during the current season and the time between seasons, but once the new season starts all badges will be reset.

Badges will reset? i’m confuse here does it mean our division will reset too? currently i’m in ruby t1 and if our division in season 2 will reset too are we able to buy the champion wing even i’m in amber division but i already have the number of tickets needed? or do i have to climb up to diamond again even i have 30 league tickets?

My client always crash even i use 64 bit client and on disconnect most of the pvp players now know me as a leaver in ranked pvp so they always report me i’m just asking you to be fair and square because i never ever use any cheating program but if i’m going to be banned please banned me if the fault is 100% mine.

I’m writing this because i’m tired of the verbal abuse i’m getting in game because of the crashes and sometimes the server disconnect. And to add it some guy reported me as a bot because he couldn’t kill my revenant xd. i love my warrior but right now i will main rev.

I have this 1 day that from t2 to t5 sapphire as solo q.

Someone also whisper me after killing me once and he thinks his so great and pro i was playing my power rev glint/shiro that everyone know really weak vs condition and then he block me what a guy i hate it when i play i want to enjoy the game and then somebody suddenly pm you with verbal abuse just ruin the fun. I play to have fun after 8 hours of long stressful day at work. Why not just ok i killed him why do they have to trash talk someone they killed.

Too much cc, and AoE Conditions are insane right now 5 AoE kiss your dodge goodbye or you have to use extra mobility to avoid it. I’m not sure why anet are so fond of it and saying gw2 and dota are 2 different genre yes but aren’t they trying to make the pvp e-sport so if that’s what they want they better rethink how they design the skills because right now the skill effect are all over my screen and i cant see whats going on.

We all know that BNS are out and ncsoft created it too so i’m just thinking maybe they ruin their owned game just to sell the other outdated game because we all know if guild wars 2 pvp are not mess up right now only few pvp players will notice BNS.

I play my Warrior just to have some fun in pvp and daredevil but i play revenant if i’m serious.

Lol happened to me in the middle of the match i cant freaking move and the other team just ignoring me hahaha epic. Oh i play revenant happened to me a lot.

I think im gonna use this if a mesmer told me the L2P crap.

Still explosive finisher is the best and phoenix finisher

Tbh thief should murder any viper rev. Ez prey. Right as they swap to Mallyx, steal stab and unload burst. But cause everyone and their mom thinks thief is in bad spot (it inst) viper revs can run and counter other braindead condi classes and dont worry about being bursted 100-0

So that’s why so many thieves are running P/P now. Not that I’ve seen any of these thieves win 1v1 yet. I think it’s just the stun there that can kill the rev tbh. If timed right when the rev is low on health you should have a free kill.

I think he just meant “do your burst”, anyways I agree after initial learning curve every rev 1v1 with my daredevil has been as easy as killing old necros. I find that projectile you get (especially with double steal) is key to easily beating the rev. It doesn’t hurt that I played Rev hard for a couple weeks and know when to not attack (which as a thief you have that choice when to pressure and when to be wherever you want)

Can you teach me how to play daredevil i tried it and i have a pretty good time but few mistake will seriously down you instantly. But like the mobility and ninja like movement.

Mallyx are far from being a god.. you only think mallyx is strong because warrior players are few in pvp since HOT hit them pretty bad but if only anet didnt mess up warrior revenant mallyx is a joke. And dd ele can still beat them im not sure where you get the idea of mallyx being god DH can send them to oblivion.

I play revenant but reaper or mm rekt my glint/shiro if what @OP say is true then his clearly a bad player because most of the player i encounter in spvp right now seems already learn how to counter the revenant not just the UA , Glint Heal and whatever you think is OP with Revenant class. If i spec glint/shiro and my opponent notice it they will condi bomb me to death and when i pop glint heal i hope for the best that they won’t notice it or else i’m dead meat and mostly when i use my shield to heal they just stop attacking so it wont heal me and most of my UA attacks now are block block block or evade evade which is annoying unlike when HoT first came out.

And i read page 1 to page 2 of this thread people here are telling you what to do but clearly you are blinded by your ‘if i cant beat it Nerf it’

You must be a good pvp player to get that stats. I often get rekt using hammer specially if team fights focus on me and those annoying DH traps that they said only stupid would die with DH trap like hell.

Sometimes i want to be a game developer you can release the product even there’s a lot of bug and just ignore the report of bugs from customers. cough Bulls Charge cough , cough Earth Shaker cough.

Yeah it’s L2P because if you play a revenant you should already know how to counter them.

Ok so i always lose against chronomancer it seems they block most of my skills and cleanse all condition i throw to them if some of chronomancer here could help me on how to counter them with my revenant glint/mallyx i’m a condi build viper.

So the community cries about the old Warrior LB Burst because it’s so big it can occupy the whole point but now those DH keep defending their traps that also can occupy the whole point and deal more damage than the LB Burst of Warrior how pathetic.

Snorcha.7586:

I’m also a programmer by trade and I can tell you that if:

1. It took this long to fix major bugs like getting immobilized for no know reason;
2. Not being able to actually see anything on the screen cause of some fancy new effects or BUGS with powerful skills ; and
3. Have a tendency to be exceptionally inconsistent in the way I treat various parts of the product

I would be fired and replaced without a second thought, but this is ANET so it’s all good I guess.

Well i understand what you mean e.g Bulls Charge of Warrior and ES.

I like the legendary staff but i’m holding back right now since Anet might nerf the staff into oblivion and i ended up wasting gold.

What the heck seriously some post here thinks warrior is freaking viable because of Rampage? if so then i hope Arenanet won’t take you seriously because you are a SCRUB.

You do realize devs work late hours for balance fixing

Are they? When will it be in game?

Sorry when i said late hours i didn’t mean they can release it after 1 day of working day.
just like most people without programming knowledge you guys can’t understand just most of my clients asking to build their business solutions system in a week. Programmers are not what you see in Hollywood just comment out a line and it’s working perfectly.

Varonth.5830:

To be honest, elite specs should be free for anyone playing SPvP.

SPvP always had that one thing going on for it, which is no grind or paying required to be on an equal footing with everyone else. This already got slightly removed when they introduced plain better sigil which must be unlocked with gold.

The amount of gold required is fairly low.

If the gemstore is involved, even if you can convert Gold to Gems, those specs will be unreasonable expensive.

Making them free for SPvP use only is just going back to the roots. It’s not like GW2 doesn’t have other stuff to sell. Finishers, skins for players and the new mist champions can use skins aswell. There are ways to monitize players in GW2 without charging them for gameplay advantages.

And honestly, elite specs are just that: plain more power. They are often straight upgrades over their standard counterpart.

You do realize devs work late hours for balance fixing and designing new skills and you are asking it to be free?

I’ve been a pvp player for 3 years too but since my guild needs most of the members to help in PVE i level up my armor smith but when i want to level up too 500 i was shock when i saw the prices on TP i don’t know how a pvp player can save that much gold.

The cry will not stop even DH , Reaper , Chrono , Rev got nerfed just like the warrior 100b most scrubs hate it because they can’t eat their doughnut on their left hand while their right hand is pressing the left mouse button and winning. Do you imagine a rooted skill that is widely open for a knockdown , stun , daze , knock back is considered OP when you just have to side step or roll then burst that warrior channeling 100b.

All those people saying glint/shiro is OP duel me on my warrior xd

Much better if we have the effect of warrior elite berserker on blue or white. Like an aura

Sorry what i mean is revenant will probably get nerf in the upcoming balance patch if there is one because too many revenants nerf post i’m reading like our glint heal , and sword #3 and our shield #5 are mostly the QQ of the threads.

With those Q Q i’m seeing here this is inevitable for the revenant.

This is pure L2P seriously if you think not then prove it and duel me on my Rev and let the whole community know how you play i bet you just stand and burn all your cooldown whenever you can. I fought a good player and they don’t have issue with UA and they can interrupt it too and counter. Please guys don’t go here in the forum after you got rekt because your opponent is more skilled than you instead learn from your mistake. And that is what i’m doing everytime i get rekt by DH, Reaper , Chrono , Tempest Etc.. I try to think why i been defeated and after a few encounter i try to read and learn their weakness , counter. Well some class are harder than the other to counter but once you familiar with those classes then you will start rekt’ng them well of course still depends on both players skill sometimes if you encounter a equal skilled player its just a matter of who will make a mistake and lose. Even Anet nerf Revenant to the ground this QQ will not stop just like when warrior is just a lot bag their are still players post here and ask for nerf. L2P

Anet should make a rules now before listening to this L2P post a video on how you play then prove it that you really know how to play your class. Maybe while UA you are just standing watching how cool the animation is and go here ask for nerf most of the good players in pvp now dodge or counter my UA and most players that get rekt by it is either not dodging or doing something to counter it just plain circling hoping Anet will nerf it. Oh and now our Stability on dodge is your problem kitten this is seriously bad go play super mario or pacman you guys seem wont be happy while you don’t win every match against rev bad is bad l2p is l2p.

Anet please nerf Revenant too many people having problem doing their dailies in pvp. Are you really interested on how to counter revenant or just calling attention for nerf if you want to learn how to counter revenant i’m willing to duel you with my Rev. I hate people asking for nerf instead of theorycrafting first on a build to counter the profession.
