Guild Wars 2

Just some critique.

I think the editing needs some work, maybe chop in some visuals reflecting what you’re talking about(weapon sets, pvp, dyes, armor previews etc), I think it’ll make the video more interesting because you have a lot of competition after all.

Note: For some reason the video looked really dark.

noted. thanks!

As i post a lot of wow related videos on my youtube channel i decided to make a series of videos about similar style games you should try out when you tire of wow. the first in the series is guild wars 2!

i go over the main features of the game and what i like about it. please check it out and tell me what you think, and any constructive criticism.

ASH

being a thief i find ash very fitting plus i love the ash intro. i am the blade in the darkness >:)

i rolled a charr after seeing the into on youtube and screenshots and art of charr. after reading up and hearing they were a race forged in war, victory at any cost, and how bad-A they were, like “with machines of war we have killed our gods” and “we planted victory banners on the graves of our enemies” i realised this isnt the race to be F-ed with and knew they were the race for me. that and out of the boring humans and he norn just being tall ice-humans and the other two races just not badkitten enough. the charr were for me

i suggested this on a thief related thread, but i would like to see dual swords or claw weapons introduced.

it would be a good addition. mabye they could add claw weapons too?

i was pretty sure i saw a necromancer with a scythe today. it might have just been the visual of a staff but it looked really cool

you cannot dual wield swords as a thief. you can use a sword, dagger or pistol in your main hand with a dagger or pistol on your offhand, or a shortbow with both hands.

to be honest, it is a little hard to understand the point of your post. are you asking whether dual wielding swords is a good new idea? i think thats very cool but unfortunately not included in the class

I remember when kids that age used to play outside. Good times. I’d get her something more age appropriate, like Pokemon. GW2 is for teens and older people. This game can be very frustrating at times. I wouldn’t recommend it for kids, because they’re more prone to temper tantrums.

i can just imagine.. "RANGER STOLE MY LOOT WAAAH D’X " XD

firstly, i would suggest levelling her up quite a bit over the monsters she is fighting and get her to play in low level zones.

and about all the people saying games like this are inappropriate for children of that age, i disagree. most of the themes of the game are lost on a 7 year old anyway. at that age its about “fighting the bad guys”. when i was young like that i was already faking my age to play games like runescape. i dont believe video games have a large impact on children. they broaden a childs imagination and IMO should be encouraged.

that being said, if your child starts going round swinging an axe at your dog, might want to rethink the video games they are playing

IMO its how you want to build your character. i play a thief and from what ive gathered you can stack conditioning for bleed and poison damage, power for bigger hits or precision for crits. i’ve also heard thiefs should get some toughness if they want to survive, but i havent come across a single piece of toughness gear yet.

I dont know how it can even compare.

guild wars 2 goes down every now and then to install a few files and then all is good. sure its inconvenient if your in the middle of something, but its making the game better in the long run. or would you rather..

error 37, you cant log in, random crashes and errors, going down all the time for long periods without warning, or very little warning, hacking by the truckload to steal gear and gold to sell on the RMAH and botting?

Guild Wars 2 has been silky smooth in comparison. Dont get me wrong though, i loved D3 but the launch was really really bad.

currently playing a thief, but i would like to also try..

ranger
necromancer
warrior
elementalist

I’m pretty sure each auto attack gives 1 initiative, unless i’m mistaken

i have started experimenting with some skills which greatly compliment a pistol whip sword build. i find haste is great and makes the attacks really fast, allowing you do do a ton of burst damage. basilisk venom helps to keep you on your target during the sword swings, since you cant move during it. obviously assassins signet gives you the 150% damage which is always nice.

what do you guys think of the pistol whip build for pvp, and what tips have you discovered?
