Vigil Shoulders and Females

in PvP

Posted by: Ace of Spades.6325

Ace of Spades.6325

Just wanted to see how many people there are that would like to see Anet change the vigil shoulders to occupy both shoulders on female characters just like they do on male characters.

I don’t think this is the right forum, and i don’t think that something like that is even worth to be discussed, if they have the time to do that, i’ll rather have them working on something else.

Why isn't Anet supporting GW2 like Valve did for Dota2?

Yes, they lied, they can’t be that dumb to think that a meta can be developed by playing against pugs.

They will not release rankeds till a meta is developed, and a meta can’t be developed without rankeds.

They got me when they said that they wanted GW2 to be the first MMO eSport, and a month after the release there is not even a split q for teams and pugs (it’s not fun to win 500 to 30 against pugs).

Dota2 got rankeds and tournaments (real tournaments), before the game was even released, and the game is f2p…

Yes yes, they are two different games, i know, it’s easier to do that for a MOBA, but they should’ve released GW2 with at least a split q for pugs and teams, the spectator mode, private servers and a ranked q.

Don’t be stupid, they told you that there is no rankedq cuz the game is not balanced yet, wich is a LIE, it doesn’t matter if the game is balanced or not, the reason we want the ranked q is so that we can play with teams of similar skill, the ratings can get a reset once they are ready to release the balance, it’s not like we want rewards for ratings, it’s only a thing that help us having fair games.

Anet doesn’t want to implement ranked games till the game is bug free and balanced? Ok, fine. At least make free tournaments ranked for a brief period, no rewards, no ‘’end of the season’’.

All the ratings can be wiped once Anet is ready to release the new content, it’s just something that will help players to have more balanced games, it’s a temporarily solution for the ‘’pugs vs teams’’ and ‘’good teams vs casuals’’.

How do you counter mesmer on trabu?

in PvP

Posted by: Ace of Spades.6325

Ace of Spades.6325

Abusing the portal to repair the treb.

The repair kit makes you vulnerable by closing all your weapon skills, but the portal allows mesmers to avoid being intercepted while vulnerable.

I refuse to play like this, so i’ll look for a counter strategy till i find one.

Post your ideas, share videos, use this subforum as it should be used for once in your life.

@Badtrip, i was 2.9k in wow, and i tell you that Arena is the last thing you’ll see in GW2, it failed as an esport in wow and blc, they’ll not implement it into the game, even if it’s just for fun.
If they do, people would start playing it too much, and screaming for balance…

The fact is that Arena at the highest lv is impossible to follow for average players, it’s a terrible esport.

Arena is a bad idea for the game itself, it might be fun for us, but wouldn’t do any good at game. They are not stupid, they will not try something that failed already so many times.

Jonathan, you could’ve just made it simple, we don’t need it to be two pages long, we just want you to tell us, if and when you’ll put rankeds in game.

Seems like you guys are temporizing, and that you think we didn’t notice. Also, no one likes the way you handle things, you keep it secret till the last second, it’s the single most annoying thing you can do to your community.

I want to apologize if it did look rude, but i said it with the utmost respect.

WoW Arena wasn’t gear based, and it didn’t fail cuz of healers, it failed cuz at high lv it is too hard to understand for the average player, making it not fun to watch.

Only lowrated players can think arena was gear based.

Rerolling from Mesmer to Elementalist. WOW?

in PvP

Posted by: Ace of Spades.6325

Ace of Spades.6325

Mesmers are OP in 1v1, the thing is that tournaments can’t be played without roamers and at least 1 support, while the class is OP on it’s own, if you put 2/3 mesmers you’ll start losing games for the comp.

Running 1 Mesmer 1 thief/ele, is much better than running 2 mesmers.

I would only recommend to play two mesmers in Khylo, they are really good defenders, and if you plan to abuse of the trabuche, you can have 1 mesmer on it, it’s really strong for defending it, and can use the teleport to repair it.

People think that a class need a nerf if it beats their class in 1v1, it’s sad…
mesmers need a nerf cuz they can repair a trabuche with the teleport, that’s thekitten thing.

A team need to be balanced, mobility, support, burst, dots, 1v1 capability, your class will never have them all, deal with it.

If you want a class that mesmers can’t beat 1v1, take the ranger and build it tank, with condition dmg and healing power, they’ll not be able to take you down, even if they are much more skilled than you.

Am i good enough to complain? I got multi glad and rank1, in gw2 my team beated Paradigm, Pika, and many self called ‘’pro team’‘. Not to mention that some players in my team got to play at MLG, Blizzcon etc. So what? Am i/ we’re, good enough for your standards?
Every opinion has the same value, stop being an elitist jerk.

Anet should’ve delivered a game with at least two more things:

1) A rankedq for teams
2) A soloq (1-2 man) for pugs

Now, let’s do some talk about the GW2 system and the old/classic WoW system.

In WoW, they have a standard elo rating like system, the problem is that people rush for high ratings in the first week of the new season, and then proceed to sit without playing till the end of the season,or they simply stop playing when their setup/class get a nerf.

In GW2, you have a tournament system, people need to be active to qualify for the monthly tournament, at this point you could think ‘’than it’s better than WoW’’, well yes and no… it’s a grind fest, bad teams can just play all day and farm points.

In the end both systems are good and bad at the same time, maybe the best options would be to use both systems AT THE SAME TIME.

Make tournaments ranked, with a ladder, and to play in the monthly event, teams now need to be at the top of the ladder, and to have at least X qualification points, if they don’t, the team behind them takes their place.

JonathanSharp speculation thread

Ace of Spades.6325

Why? Cuz it’s so much fun to speculate.

Anet’s member JonathanSharp, announced that they are working on PvP…

GO! speculation thread.

I did not expect paid tournaments to be delayed so much, maybe they are having a change of heart, if so they might opt for an elo system similar to LoL.
While a soloQ will backfire on the premadeQ, it would be an ’’endgame’’ kind of thing for the QQers, and it would be great to promote the game as an eSport with streamings.

I think that they want to divide Hardcores from Casuals, PvE for casuals and ranked PvP for the hardcorers, that’s why i think they’ll add a soloQ.

There will also be two different unranked queue, one for pugs and one for premades.

Mesmers & thieves too powerful?

in PvP

Posted by: Ace of Spades.6325

Ace of Spades.6325

My main is a mesmer and i agree it’s op, but not for the reasons that most people are pointing out.

First, moa morph it’s not op, time warp is. If you get morphed, just kite around pillars till it’s faded. I know that most people will disagree and say ‘’but in a team fight it’s 5v4’’, well the thing is that Mesmers are not team fight machines like Engs and Necros (necros are really underrated, they shine in tf).
Most of the time time warp will be more handy than a moa, especially if you are 1v2.

The portal should be nerfed, it’s not possible to teleport while holding the repair kit, it’s a joke, also the IRogue in downed state it’s too strong, and the Iwarrior with the GW is random, it can crit for 1k or for 9k.

Mesmer and Thievs are the strongest 1v1 fighters, the Thief has less surviability, but more mobility and burst. it’s a better roamer and a weaker point defender.

People need to understand that it’s impossible to have a game where classes are balanced around 1v1, you class can’t be strong in roaming, tf, and 1v1. You have to focus on your strong point.

TIP: People complains about the Mesmer downed state… it’s pretty simple, when they vanish, the first one to appear is a fake, kill the second one.

Paid Tournaments

Ace of Spades.6325

No, Anet is even worst than Blizzard for this, they never speak of their plans, everything is super secret.

Look at the chest reward thingy / tournaments down, they ignored all the tweets about it… they could’ve at least said ‘’we don’t know when we’ll fix it, sorry’’, they never said how big the problem was, and left the community wandering.

One day you’ll log on and the paid tournaments will be there.

What competitive pvp needs

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Ace of Spades.6325

Ace of Spades.6325

1) A ranked system
2) Pugs and Premades should be able to face each others
3) Spectator mode
4) Balance
5) Duels

a) For a competitive play, having a ranked system is essential. I’m not sure that paid tournaments will fulfill that role, they seems to be rewarding toward who play the most.

b) I don’t know how you guys feel, but in the last two days, i did 14 hours of sPvP (nerdy i know), and we lost once.
99% of the times we meet pugs, when you run with your team, using TS, it’s impossible to lose vs pugs.
It’s so frustrating to play against them… before the game start, you already know that you’ll end up winning.
A solo queue it’s needed, stomping and being stomped it’s not funny.

c) The third most important thing for me, is the spectator mode. Most people would say that balance is more important, but due to the importance, of tactic and coordination (in Conquest), you can pretty much overcome any cheesy setup with skill. We even met a team running 5 Mesmers, 4 moa + Time Warp.

d) Balance, the game has been released just few days ago, and the balance is pretty decent, i’d say that only few classes need a visit, from the nerf bat.

e) They said that they will add em, i hope it’s sooner than later. They are a great tool to test builds, and i heard that the Warrior npc, is not happy about being used as punch bag.
They are a great tool to test builds and to do some 1v1 practice, nothing more nothing less.

Tnx for reading my rant.
