Guild Wars 2

This one time a Thief killed me and it was INSANE I literally never saw him once stealth is obviously OP

The fact I have never played a Thief or Mesmer allows me to have an unbiased look at this situation and it is clear: Stealth is OP – 5 minute cooldown plz

Yes the video is sped up a little Vash. I can try to make my next video with original speed.

Thx DoomKnightMax! I hope that too.

Berserker shatter all the way!

delete hotjoin, introduce unranked SQ

This is in no way helpful but is totally relevant to this discussion. Listen with sound.

Logic? Ahahahahaha

They fixed iLeap to match the description? Well here’s the description of Pistol Whip

• Dual Wield. Pistol-whip your foe, stunning them, then slash repeatedly with your sword.
• Damage(9x): xyz
• Stun: 1/2 seconds
• Range: 130

What else does it? Ahh I know! You evade while attacking. pls “fix” it anet. The skill doesn’t match its description.

Delete – Thief

Add – Space Marine

Here’s a PSA from us Mesmer mains:

urieldhynne.2743:

The goal of WvW is win the match and positioning your server in a ranking system.

That may be the ‘technical’ goal but pity the person on a server that has no choice nor will ever be able to win a match-up.

For me, it is the challenge of playing against real people rather than programmed meta. I don’t get any kind of thrill in PVE .. maybe the first time when I still don’t know how the new boss will react to any given situation but in truth even that does not get my adrenaline going because I know that fairly quickly, someone will have worked it out and it all becomes mundane again.

Right back when I first started ‘PvP’ – when I played against others with Doom, Doom2, and then multiplayer Quake, it was all about the uncertainty .. how you can never assume or know what that other person is going to do.

It’s all about how you can play against the same person or group night after night, work out exactly what they will do, then 1 night, they can surprise you and turn the tables on you.

It’s about wiping those unbeatable odds, and getting your kitten handed to you; spending hours sitting in a fort to be rewarded nothing other than being able to call in your blob to wipe out the 5 man snipe squad that just smeared you in the Lord’s room.

There are no shinies.. there are no achievements.. there’s something much better. I can’t describe it .. but it brings me back inside everyday. God knows, I’m a sad, sad WvW gamer!

Haha gotta share a really short story. Few days ago I entered a match on my longbow ranger and ended up on skyham. I was running up to b when I saw a warrior rushing our homepoint. I fired off a random knockback shot hoping to put him in combat and slow him long enough for our homeguard to get the cap. Lo and behold read the wind+eagle eye saved the day. He started to do the GS whirling movement ability just as the arrow hit and he goes FLYING off the edge. Half of hte players at B that saw it stopped fighting long enough to type. “uhhh…WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?!”

Should just move Martial Mastery out of Wilderness Survival instead.

Terrible and completely unimaginative.

Rangers don’t need more condition options. Wilderness survivability grants survivability as the major theme of its traits even though condition damage is a part of that, and that’s fine. You should get what you need from the traits and the stats are merely bonuses. The GS is a defensive melee weapon so it fits in perfectly. The trait also reduces swords cooldowns too and that can be uses as a hybrid weapon on any sort of build.

And adding bleed to everything is uncreative, unneeded, and doesn’t make sense whatsoever.

Ranger suck.
Mesmers blow.

Either way you’re f***ed.

Buffs/fixes for all please.

inb4 everyone running around with endure pain and warriors complaining about it

hahahahahahahahahaha

Tonight I will be streaming Guild Wars 2. The stream will be about going from level 1 to max level and we wont stop till this is achieved. This stream is dedicated to my sister who passed away on 7/28/2014 at 9:03pm EST. I invite all and anyone to come and watch whether your helping with donations or just offering condolences.

The stream can be viewed at: www.twitch.tv/quilcerin

Step 1: Set to follow
Step 2: Kill everything yourself in <3 seconds (zerker gear ftw)
Step 3: Done

Possibly the best patch for Mesmer in the past year.

My character couldn’t resist the perfect “selfie” opportunity.

Mine was furious at Mordremoth that it completely missed Kasmeer after I gave it very specific instructions that I’d lure her to a spot marked by an X on the map I mailed it using in-game mail which is where it would shoot its vines out of the ground and finally rid us of this whiney mushy lovey-dovey excuse for a noble. Told it to move to Kryta to get a better aim but it was like “Oh no good sir, I can totally nail that kitten all the way from the Maguuma”.

Stupid dragon!

Can some RP guild please make a theatrical adaptation of this thread a la West Side Story? A wealthy Mesmer from Divinity’s Reach meets a Ranger from Bloodtide Coast…

My mesmer is still my main.

why are we even fighting guys. yes mesmers have reached the bottom of the bottom and are barely fun to play and rangers are right down there with us. rangers need buffs too and i get that.
we both have the right to complain, cause we lack in many aspects of the game. yes ranger can pick on a single target and so can mes, but thats not the issue. the issue is that both classes cant contribute well ingroup play.

i used to love my mes in wvw, now i havent played it in over 2 months cause yeah well i like wvw zergbusting, so i went ahead and made a necro. and yes i did try ranger and i see very similar issues there. too many traits are wasted on a pet that dies in less than 10 seconds in a zergfight, mes cant use illusions nor can they shatter.
people that say mes doesnt need help, see the mes in 1v1 and roaming. yes thats about the only thing we can do. 1v1 and thats it. in a group we lack dmg, aoe dmg and even in support we are lacking and we also dont really fit into the role of the backline ganker as thats the thieves job and they do it well!
same with the ranger no role in group play, they can take down a single target, but what about a large scale fight? war outshines their bow skills by far, they dont have much group support, nor enough aoe to really be useful. so yeah i agree ranger needs help… a lot of it! but arguing here about mes needing buffs makes like no sense at all. we both are in the same boat and both need massive rework!
so can we stop the fights over who deserves buffs and who doesnt?

Step 1: Give Veil to thiefs, give Portal to eles.
Step 2: Delete mesmer profession.

Result: Noone, in not a single game mode would miss the mesmer profession in GW2.

TheLargeUnit.2793:

Ok, I play Warrior, Mesmer (Shatter), Ranger, Thief, and Engi.

A shatter Mesmer simply can’t beat an eviscerate Warrior in a 1v1 (assuming skill levels are remotely comparable). The Mesmer’s ability to “kite” is completely nullified by the Warriors high mobility, high area control, and various CC options. I understand however that some builds are supposed to counter other builds.

The problem arises when there are VERY few builds to counter this eviscerate build. Any condition build might as well not show up, and very few power builds can match the sustain/dps ratio the warrior brings to the table.

As a Warrior among other things, I can safely say anyone that in favor of the eviscerate build being “just fine” has either A. Never played another profession/build or B. Is simply a bad player afraid to be nothing without his or her crutch.

As being previously a Mesmer main (but the devs shot that horse in the face, legs and kitten ) , the only two of my characters who I can outperform with against an Eviscerate warrior (and this is in an sPvP/tPvP setting) are my Ele (usually Scepter/Focus fresh air) or my zerker Necro. Easier with the latter, but nevertheless I need to absolutely bust my kitten to get this to work, and it only does less than half the time unless I’m in a larger team skirmish.

Put longbow into the equation and I need to pop a Xanax. I shouldn’t need to. I’m not a Real Housewife of Atlanta (yet).
Of course that being said playing higher skill capped classes and builds does indeed lead me to believe that most (eviscerate or otherwise) warrior players are just generally very lazy and need to get out of my screen-space. Which makes the stomps that much more satisfying.

Curunen.8729:

The next patch could be the one we’re looking for…

…maybe.

I have no expectations.

You reminded me of this.

cooldumbname.8594:

I love how people still defend S/D thief as if it isnt broken.

Fire + air sigils are broken not s/d

Well it used to be a very strong and useful trait, but Anet decided to nerf it to the ground and reduce mesmers to a portal/veil bot in WvW while also nerfing confusion damage across the board.

They 100% killed what was probably the best and most viable condition damage spec to ever exist in WvW and now its hard to get loot bags on a mesmer as a result. Its also made confusion weaker in pvp, so this is an example of total over balancing that hurt the mesmer quite a bit.

Since i’ve had a character at that mission i’ve tried some combinations as well

first 3 : Apparently there are shinies to be had in the Eternal Alchemy, also : All hail Skritt!

next 2 : Apparently someone lost their towel while traveling in the Eternal Alchemy (towel seems happy about it though)

final 3 : Thats what you get for not cleaning the telescope lens before filming cutscenes Mathew! Also : Made in Tyria xD
