Dungeons and fractals were an after thought when designing Lobster Arch so no wonder they forgot to add proper icons for them.

Don’t rush it, game has been out for seven months now.

I’d rather have them focus on the class balance and technical performance before working on cosmetics and vanity items.

zerk meta, viability of a class

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

The current meta doesnt allow rangers to join a “meta party”. I kinda see why but a lot of people underestimate rangers a lot. I know that we dont have a lot natural damage output but that doesnt mean we aren’t able to run dungeons fast.
I currently run a LB/SA on my ranger I use frost + spotter and run stalker and jaguar as pet. I like to run this build because it provides a lot of DPS and team support. However I always get kicked for playing a ranger and that isn’t in the current PS war, guard, thief, and 2 staff ele team.
I get that you dont want a ranger in your party who knockbacks the boss or play with signet of stone and a bear. What I would like to see from you guys is that you give rangers with a proper build a chance in the current meta I hope this isnt to much to ask.

It just happens to be a lot easier to kick all of them than to try and weed out the good ones. And besides it’s rather pointless to rant here about ranger usability since most folks on these forums actually know what each class can do/offer. (At least I hope they do.)

This is not a request, but an order!!!

So much kitten over some petty dyes. I’ve had every single dye in the game for well over 2 years now and get new ones within weeks of them being implemented and tbh I’m just happy that some ppl get the dye they’ve been yearning for.

And trying to compare the dye prices now is pretty moot since they are always around 20-150g when they were first introduced and could easily be farmed in few days if someone really wanted them.

Completely pointless stacking - RANT!

Corners and walls are still useful as they still concentrate ice bow and meteor shower hits to half it’s normal AoE size. But yes most bosses would be faster to kill on spot but trying to get pugs tp do so is pointless.

And ranting on this forum about pug tactics is rather pointless since most people here are part of a dungeon guild or run in more experienced groups.

Based on my 10 minute pony spam session against indestructible golems I’m 90% certain that they’ve put the 10s recharge on FS.

Without amulet, sigils, runes, and traits my auto attack on SB ranged from 123 to 136 and when frost spirit procced (usually off CD ) I got about 140-146 ticks at the same intervals as i got the effect from other spirits which we know to have 10 second recharge.

And on LB 2 and axe offhand 5 I only got one proc per cast.

PS. They really need to put back the steady weapons to pvp so people can test properly. >_>

Transmutation Splitter - how far does it go?

It will only remember the latest step which in this case is the mutation between lvl 75 item and lvl 79 item.

So you’ll just have to cough up the money or dungeon tokens to get a new lvl 80 item for exotic stats.

What’s the point of interrupting the dogs retal cast when it only goes to a 3 second cooldown and then just casts it again and again until you run out of CC.

Retaliation is a bad boon that rewards for playing badly.

Seems like the previous patch gave the frost spirit the 10 second recharge that other spirits have. I’ll quote myself from another topic.

Based on my 10 minute pony spam session against indestructible golems I’m 90% certain that they’ve put the 10s recharge on FS.

Without amulet, sigils, runes, and traits my auto attack on SB ranged from 123 to 136 and when frost spirit procced (usually off CD ) I got about 140-146 ticks at the same intervals as i got the effect from other spirits which we know to have 10 second recharge.

If it is true then one of the few reasons to have a ranger for dungeons is now gone and even with the upcoming buffs we’ll still be left in the dust with necros.

Will People Play Content They Don't Enjoy?

I play content even if I don’t enjoy it if the end reward is worth it.

I am mostly a PvE player and while I do enjoy occasional WvW and sPvP it is not enough to keep me interested because the effort-reward ratio just isn’t as good as doing open world PvE or dungeons.

Many people are going to hate me but I can’t wait until they design all movement-attack skills like FGS rush or whirlwind attack to hit foes only once per use.

I am tired of banging mobs against the walls. I want real fights.

Then we will see all those “meta” ele and warriors fail so hard not knowing what to do

That won’t change anything except the speed of kills. Ele will still have top dps. The general gameplay won’t change. People will still pull bosses into walls so the bosses won’t keep walking backwards.

It’d be a start though. Ideally speaking I’d like to have AI improved to prevent corner/wall stacking from being so universally effective.

Fortunately, what you think to be ideal plays no part in deciding balance changes.

Well, I guess not everyone can handle a game that would actually be challenging.

This should get interesting…
