WvW, some things you should know!

in WvW

It would be great if people would do what is suggested but there are way too many who seem to think they can do better and know better so they run around showing no support. I’ve seen many people join squads then wander around showing no support, yet again. But even at that, if one is running their map and there are so many enemy that has you out numbered, it takes the fun out of the game. Can’t enjoy getting constantly killed and running from a WP just to die instantly again. I just am not seeing how Anet is making the teams/servers fighting each other fair. Some have way more numbers than other servers they are against. I can’t believe how many servers team up two on one server for weeks at a time. This is a great way to discourage people from playing WvW. I know a lot talking about having had enough of it.

Pet improvements

in Ranger

One thing I don’t like about the pets is when we are downed by a player it takes 20 seconds before out pets come to help us get up. Most, if not all, of the other classes have more than one way to heal. Some have several ways. Rangers have to wait for the pets and it takes forever for the heal #6 to refill. I do believe that should be addressed by Anet. Also, many times I hit my #3 on my longbow I don’t get ANY stealth. That has been an issues for a very long time. People complain about pets and Rangers and we get “balanced” but it’s not balancing us its taking our skills away and “dumbing us down”. I don’t see them doing that to Thief’s or Mesmer’s. I just think they should make every class even and let it depend on the player’s skills.

Give Rangers more alternatives

in Ranger

Why is it the Ranger has been so down graded that it is nearly impossible to take a person down in WvW and PVP yet so many other classes have been beefed up? The Druid skills have nothing to do with helping one’s own Ranger. Yes it does help a little but we have no alternative skills to be fighters to defend ourselves. What few skills we have to choose from such as the “Spirit” skills" give us a 75% chance to apply burning or protection, etc. Why wouldn’t we be given skills that will give us 100% chance to apply burning? Our options are lame considering what other character options are. We can be running in WvW and get hit and taken down so quickly anymore not many want to play their favorite character, the Ranger. We are pretty much MADE to be healers or just hope for the best. Some of us, most of us, want an alternative way to be fighters. I don’t want to be a healer. I want to be able to defend myself and my fellow players by taking down our enemy. Getting my butt kicked so easily is taking all the fun out of the game. Find a good build, they change us. It’s expensive to try to find and fix our classes then have to turn around and try to figure out another fix a few months later. Anet needs to do for Rangers what its been doing for the other classes, make it fair and stop changing, “fixing” what wasn’t broken.

Issue Reports: Heart of Thorns [Merged]

While playing in HoT Story line level 16 we had two players leave the instance because the green star was in the way while trying to avoid the enemy and death. It would pop up within a large area on the map we were fighting on. It didn’t give them the option to say yes or no, they were fighting and then just got taken out. Also, after trying three times two players lost their connection to the server. Both, myself being one of them, live in different states and are on different internet providers. Losing our connection ended the battle because I was one who was disconnected and I was the owner of the instance. This battle is hard as it is but to have to deal with these two issues makes one not want to keep trying. No fun in a game, no buying another upgrade. Please fix these issues.

Guardian: Symbolic Avenger Trait bugged

Ferguson’s Crossing just used that exploit in Borlis Pass. They took our Garrison, Hills and Bay in less than 3 minutes each and they were all fully upgraded. Cheating is not how I play the game and if this isn’t fixed soon, I will no longer be playing WvW nor will I encourage friends and family to play Gw2 or the upgrade. This exploit is known by Anet. They have to know by now and still have not fixed it.

Ranger Pets and Precision Issues

Yeah it is most definitely bugged. I didn’t notice Hunter’s Shot not working until a couple days ago, for me, and after the more recent upgrades. However, the issue with the pet not helping I’ve been “complaining” about a little longer than that. Ok, more yelling at my pet is more like it. haha

I’d like to see Anet take a little more time in fixing all chars so that we are comparable with the others. So if a Ranger and a Thief come against one another both will have a good chance of taking the other out, depending on their skills and abilities as a player, for example. The stealth and abilities of the thief and mesmer is crazy. There can be six or so in our group and we come up against a mesmer and thief they can down us all and we are good wvw players. There are some using cheats, we know that, but there are times we just can’t figure out how they do things they are doing and just don’t want to call cheat when we aren’t sure. I do think there are some classes that have been morphed to outdo others. Anet seems to change things up on us every few months and really they shouldn’t be doing that, either. We go out and fight and get our butts kicked because we didn’t know about the changes or how to use the char because of the changes. LOL

I also realized when using my longbow and using the #3 I don’t go stealth at all nor do I get the swiftness it says I should be getting.

Several ranger’s, including myself, have noticed a couple of issues/bugs with our chars, and we are not sure if there was a nerf or what, but, we are having two issues. One being our pets are NOT helping us rez when we are down and the other is our chars are acting like we have no precision. Many times we go to shoot at an enemy right next to us and our chars will turn and start shooting at something like a animal that has nothing to do with the enemy. With the thief abilities to stealth and mesmer’s bringing out so many minions and such we Rangers need our skills to be dependable and as helpful to us as the other chars are to them. Thanks

Siege Timing Out

in WvW

I’d like to know why our siege in wvw times out after an hour. We spend hours and money on siege in the game. Yet it is wasted if we can’t be on top of it in time. We are in fighting at one end of hills or bay, etc., and at the other end our siege times out and is gone then we have to put out more money on the siege and pray there are enough supplies to build if the enemy moves to the other end. We shouldn’t have to worry about it. There should be a limit as to how many siege we have on the map, I understand that, but if we have to worry about them timing out and building then we should have an unlimited amount of supplies for building. We are paying for these siege, we shouldn’t have to lose them just because we couldn’t get to them in time.

Love the game but make it fair. You want us to spend “real” cash, make it worth it.
