Guild Wars 2

and prevent class stacking

so PvP will be fun again.

EDIT: At least for hotjoin.

Arenas can stay 5v5.

Yes please, 8v8s were really fun.

OR whoever random word will apear on everyone team, who writes it on mapchat 1st will get 100 points…

and seriously op, you idea is rly bad and would break the game even more… You rly want Revs Druids and Bunker mesremrs instantcapping points with quickness?

Make quickness not work on cap points.

There, I just made your comment completely irrelevant.

I like it as it is too.

I like it as is.

Wow the intensity

the action

the drama

ohhh wait i stopped watching and decided anything was better then this

Good, saved me the time of watching a match that was going nowhere.

Whoa whoa dont blame them, there is no counter for them.

Currently only 1-2 teams actually counter this meta out of 16 and dont blame them for anet not doing there jobs.

What is op is what is overrepresented (see mandatory for success) in high level pvp.
In this definition everybody will admit :
1) Revenant is OP as hell
2) Tempest ranger (correction) & Engi are coming after
3) Mesmer is not in a bad spot
4) Dragon hunter is in poor spot (not so surprisingly for me)
5) Warrior and thieves (correction) have disapeared
6) It is not worth talking about vanilla classes (due to classical opness of last stuff delivered on grindy mmo games)

I understand bracketing and all that, but I have to agree with you.

This was just sad. There was nothing interesting about it. I really did feel bad for the losing teams. I would have loved to see the newcomers face off and gain some confidence. I’m actually really glad that I didn’t have my friends watch this stream. I have been trying to recruit some of the people I PvP with in other games, and I know seeing these sort of stomps back to back would have certainly turned them off to being interested.

So, here’s the thing. If you’re going to get a front page spot on Twitch, I think it’s most important to field interesting games. That’s more important than following bracketing by the book. You’re not going to stir up much interest when viewers come in and see a 500-0 stomp-fest.

It´s not just that the balance is way off.
I forced myself to watch the whole qualifiers.
It´s not nice to watch.
It´s just a huge mess.
Aoe, invuls, boons, auras and conditions get thrown around everywhere. All you see is particle effects and not much of the player animations.
They really need to take a step back and rethink all of that in my oppinion.
It´s really sad how it looks right now.

Best regards!

That 500-0 finish. No one find it strange that almost no non-elite specialized classes were present in the qualifiers? no just me? ok.

On a unrelated note, you too can now be a esport finalist by following 3 easy steps:
1. pick a class that is not warrior or thief
2.slot in the elite specialization
3. follow this easy rotation as demonstrated in this video

Very balanced and fun game arena net good job!

I’m shocked they didn’t get the balance patch out before this tournament.

Sizer got farmed like he was a critter…
and warriors… noone even dared to try. (if sizer wasn’t so biast there would have been no thief in the tourney either)

After entering a new area Facets turn off.
This applies to literally every new area of open world maps from what I noticed.
Made a video to properly explain this too:

Whenever you’re in Custom Arena on EU, the 1v1 servers, the game crashes EVERY time you try to spectate the build.

Just sharing it with you guys.

I did create new characters lately.

In another MMO though.

Going to post mine before reading all the others, then I’ll go back and have a look. First I’ll say that I have 19 level 80 toons which include all professions and all races, so the pet peeves below haven’t actually kept me from playing these races, but they certainly keep me from playing them as often as I would otherwise or working toward improving their gear, etc.

Ranger: The Pet UI is ugly. Compare it to the other professions – mesmer, guardian, thief…all nice looking job-specific skill bars. The pet UI is not just lackluster in comparison, it is an eyesore and I can’t handle it.

Norn female: I love the faces, hairstyles and tattoos available, but I hate that even the shortest and thinnest body type reminds me of a tall man’s body. I also strongly dislike the running animation and the manliness of the voice.

Sylvari male: I hate hate hate their running animation. Hate it. They run with their back perfectly straight like they have a stick up their kitten that reaches all the way up to their skull. I also hate the over-sized shoulder and bloated skirt issues much of the game’s armor has on them. That said, the rest of their aesthetic is absolutely top tier, so one of my 2 mains is Sylvari male, despite how annoying I find these issues.

Races:

Charr –
That annoying kittening slow kitten walking and the absurdity at how they fall, they literally belly flop onto the ground from 50 feet up? whose moronic idea was that?

Norn (Male) –
They look like tall dwarves when they run, the ratio of their upper body to lower seems off.

Sylvari (Male) -
The way they look in one direction while their torso points in another, kitten is with that? Additionally, lets also not forget their very robotic running.

Asuras (All) –
kittening like stupid smart kitten that you just want to kick in the face, and it also trivializes a large part of the game which is customizing your character with EXPENSIVE skins which are barely visible on asuras.

Humans (All) –
Just so kitten boring, even their story is boring. But by process of elimination, they are the only alternative for me. They are the best to look at for extended periods of time, they have the broadest choice in armor IMO.

Classes:

Engineers –
Seriously, how long have been people complaining about hobo sacks? The least they could do is replace them with something more relevant to each kit (example: a torso grenade belt for the grenade kit, an actual kittening tool belt for the tool kit?)

Guardians/Necros –
That abysmal mobility, I can literally map twice as fast on my war, ranger, thief and atleast 1.5x as fast on ele.

I hate the Staff #1 animation of female human guardians. It just looks kittening kittened.

Yes, I am fully aware that a topic like this exists already, but it’s been dead for well over a year, and I am really interested in hearing more, so I started a new one.

Post your own reasons why a class and/or race is unplayable for you.

I’ll start;

Races——

Human: Voice actors are wayyyyy to common in other games (Nolan North and April Stewart) I don’t want my character to sound like Nathan Drake, and the whole race is overpopulated by players.

Sylvari: I can’t play this race because of the standing poses, I don’t like it how a male sylvari’s torso points to the right but his face looks forward. (Also their necks are slightly crooked)

Charr: I hate their culture

Asura: I love this race, but being so small irritates me since people can’t see my cool armor.

Classes——

Warrior: Too “mainstream”, overall boring and wayyyy to popular.

Thief, Ranger and Engineer: Medium armor is just so kitten ugly.

Elementalist: I don’t like the idea of multiple elements at the same time.

Mesmer: Too pink, though the class itself is really nice.

Guardian: Lacks all kinds of cool skills, also played this one to death.

Necromancer: Ugly minions

No, this is easier for people who don’t want to grind all 10 achievement points. While this is directed at NPE players, personally I prefer this.

Irony

Anet wanted to move away from the Trinity, but they wind up making the game centered on playing 1 role (DPS)….

DPS DPS DPS

This game would be better with defined roles that had equal value in the game.

The Community in general agrees that the game is centered around DPS and how fast you can kill kill kill. Most groups will kick you if dont spec for the most damage, unless grouped with friends…

the fight mechanics in dungeons dont even require people specing differently from just pure damage potential… thats a shame.

Such a cool game to play, with only 1 role to play to be of any use.
There really is no point playing any other way. its a waste. Damage beats all.

When the Raid Dungeons come, i seriously hope Anet considers expanding the group roles, because I am tired of the DPS fest.

Dont get me wrong, I liked the DPS role in the trinity as well, but I also liked to play other roles in the game. Thats what makes it fun, is the ability to play more roles.

All I get is a loading screen that times out before I enter.

Fuchs, just follow my lead and uninstall.
