the bigdaddy of mirage=chronomancer.

yeah, but did you really think they could come up with something better than chrono?

the only way mirage get taken over chrono is if anet nerfs chrono to the bone, which is far more likely and probably way more easier than think of something actually ingenious to make mirage viable.

chrono is masterpiece of gw2, unique, original, effective, skill-based and fun. you don’t get a lot of those combined together in real life or in game.

having said all of the above, i like the mirage concept and was actually my favorite in terms of concept in pof (dis and yolosmith). but there is always a difference between concept and execution.

meh, i think this kinda okay tho, thieve has always been one of those build-deleter, meaning its mere existence deletes the viability of many other diverse builds. And if you happen to run a build that doesn’t have some form of projectile disfunction, either roll with someone who does (like ele, dh, engy, drood), or your gonna have a bad day.

imo, this is more like a pve specs with all the quickness buffs and stuff, i don’t think its designed with pvp in mind, mehbe that’s a good thing. its never good trying to cover 2 bins with 1 cover, right? for me, in pvp, DH is still better, because you got nice sustain via flying wings, double heal traps, f3 blocks and nice point denial via test of faith. As for firebrand, mantras and tomes are not suitable for pvp, they are either too weak, too easy to avoid, or take too long to cast, except maybe F1-tome 3 and 4, but even that, its only kinda okay and definitely not worth when compared with the DH unblockable spearpull,

Oh, and almost forgot about axe, which is fine in itself, but for a class that is supposed to stay range instead of jump in and yolo, it seems to me maybe DH should get axe and Firebrand should get bow.

Powerful Potion of Slaying Scarlet's Armies

Is there a way at all to get Powerful Potion of Slaying Scarlet’s Armies, aside from buying it on TP?

If this is not an item acquired by drop or crafting, where does the supply come from? If there is no source for supply, shouldn’t the price be way higher than it is right now?

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Powerful_Potion_of_Slaying_Scarlet%27s_Armies
doesn’t show how to acquire it other than TP. Acquisition are all “historical”.

Do you ragret voting for solo queue?

Its good as it is. But not perfect. Pure solo Q would be much better, but the play with a friend aspect weights more. I personal would go for a pure solo Q and a seperate team mode without solo players.

solo queue and team queue +1
i also think there should be 2 separate queues.

Mystic Coin needs more supply

I think the reasonable price should be around 30 to 50 silver, same as ectoplasm. High than 1g is absolutely ridiculous.

What are you basing “reasonable” on? What you’d be willing to pay?

Based on the reasoning that if someone wants to craft legendary, like Hope for example, the costs for the Mystic Coin is almost like 25% of the total cost of the legendary itself. I think a reasonable % would be 10%.

ArenaNet has already confirmed that supply is outpacing demand. The issue is that you don’t want to wait or buy them.

This statement is essentially the same as “there is a lot of money in the economy and the banks are flooded with cash, you just happen to be poor.”

I’m saying that there should be a way to actively farm this material, and thus allowing “hardworking” people to get more of them, instead of freely given to people who may not need them but get them anyway just by logging in, and yet never sells them because the price is expected keep going up.

If Anet is worried that creating extra supply will flood the market with too much mystic coin, it can always take away the log in reward for mystic coin, replace it with something else, like mystic salvage or something else.

Or they make mystic coin gambler like Tarrktun!

Mystic Coin’s prices have risen from 10 silver to over 1 gold since early 2016.

Unlike other materials which can be grinded (even Amalgamated Gemstone can be grinded), Mystic Coin has a very limited supply, namely:

1. Chance for 5 to 50 from Mystic Clover crafting

2. Common reward from bosses of the Nightmare Fractal challenge mode

3. Rewarded once a day from completing the Defeat the Ley-Line Anomaly to disperse its destructive energy before it overloads event.

4. 20 received through every 28 day login rewards cycle; 2/4/6/8 on the first day of every week.

And let’s be honest:

No.1 – strictly a gamble and unreliable
No.2 – most people lack skills/time/AR to do it
No.3 – don’t even know wtf is that, and it only gives 1 per day!
No.4 – takes a whole year to accumulate a full stack of 250!

As long as there is no consistent way to farm this like other materials:

1. players who need it will continue to buy it,

2. players who do not need it right away will not sell it because they know it will be more and more expensive and they may need it later; and

3. traders will buy flip it.

Result: price will continue to rise and will eventually surpass the price for amalgamated gemstone.

Suggestion: simply create more supply such as drops from end of meta-events, or end of pvp/wvw track.

I think the reasonable price should be around 30 to 50 silver, same as ectoplasm. High than 1g is absolutely ridiculous.

Sudden persistent losses

in PvP

I don’t consider myself good or anything, just a casual normal mid-tier player. I’ve played over 2000 games. My winrate has always been around 50%, i finished T2 gold last season. This season, I placed in T1 Gold and stayed there for the entire month having around 50% winrate as per usual.

But since Easter, all of a sudden I started getting these lose streaks, like 6 to 7 losses in a roll, then 1 win and then 6 to 7 losses again. And its not like I’m tilted because these losses are not all played on the same day, its everyday since Easter!!! They are persistent and felt like I’m being cursed or punished. Now, I’m back to Silver T2 now……

Not only that, now that I’m back in Silver T2, I am getting these teammates that have no idea what they are doing and will give up within the first 2 minutes! But somehow my opponents are still super strong like they are in Gold T3 or something. They are either all using super annoying cheesy builds or knows really well rotation that absolutely wreck all my teammates!!!

What’s happening to me!!!!!!! Right now, I don’t even feel like playing anymore…..
