Guild Wars 2

@Mada Fa wait for prime time and then you will see if its fixed for you because many of us dont have problems during the day. Lagspikes appear at prime time (evening).

try to use MSI afterburner v2.3.0 I had exactly same issues blackscreen of death and sound loop in background everytime I had to reboot pc you have to UNDERCLOCK your GPU it helped me no crashes now.

So……
I have 3-15 second lags in pvp every evening during the day its okay when its prime time I cant play spvp with my team and its ruining our game experience. It started 1 and 1/2 week ago. Lagging in pve aswell. I dont know what happened but you should really fix this or you will lose even more players. I checked my ping to gw2 servers and google and after 15 minutes I had 1% packet loss so its not my network connection i guess.

FIX THIS QUICKLY

guys try condition/power based build 30/30/10 with wells it works quite well weak in 1vs1 but you are beasts in team fights

give them rocket launcher

try only condition build in tpvp and you will see its useless nowadays only power builds with wells are useful and you have to hope enemy is stupid enough to stand in wells

necro is most fun to play class in the game for me everything else seems so boring to me after I tried necro.

As I said HB isnt overpowered whats OP is haste………….they should remove haste from the game and from all classes they have it.

10 stacks if you dont have crit chance around 50% then you can stack it up to 15 if you dont fight elementalists or guardians. Pure condition builds doesnt work nowadays I think best way are hybrids power/condition necro (mainly focused on bleeding) but with wells to torture your enemies.

maybe they just buffed up thieves they were too squishy so perma stealth seems legit to me

to me its seems like power/hybrid necro 30 spite 30 curses and using well of suffering and well of corruption if you are defending some point you have to leave it if he uses wells on that or you will just die this build is something like condition glass cannon very powerfull in 2vs2 3vs3 but quite weak in 1vs1

I think toughness is quite useless nowadays its better to have better dps because thieves or haste HB warriors will one shot you anyway

remove haste from the game then you will have balanced classes….till its in game classes cant be balanced.

Next patch will be PVE one again…………dunno what you are hoping for guys but with ANET speed of development we will see first steps for e-sport in year 4012 my 50 CENTs

is ANET new Funcom? Breaking things that work very well and adding stupid mechanics to the game?

I would have said pvp was future until I just saw loading screen in tournaments for 5 days now

delete pvp from game if you cant fix that loading screen bug ANET and dont fool us anymore. You are fixing some stupid PVE bugs and you let this game breaking bug in game forever? Seriously.

try it in pvp and tell me then

hmmmm nice dps but one well timed dodge or teleport (flesh wurm, shadowstep, 5. skill on shortbow, mist form, mesmer staff port, ele 4. skill off hand dagger air element etc etc) and its wasted :/

Hello I saw many conditionmancers streaming tournaments but I didnt find anyone using dagger. Do you know some good streams with dagger necros?

I would like to say that necro shouldnt be only condition class I personally love dagger/focus spirit necro so pls buff life leeching so its viable.

(copy and paste link if it doesnt work)

I wanted to share my pvp build. No matter what will others say I enjoy it and it can be quite viable in tpvp also. Its glass cannon spec although you are not so “glass” like other classes. Sometimes I switch golem for lich form to have some fun on middle fights This build is not for newcomers you should uderstand your class well first.

Sorry for my English.

I had same feeling but I simply gave up on best builds for pvp and created my own build which I enjoy no matter if I cant manage full power of my class. And hey its fun again and I enjoy pvp like never before.

True is I see many ranks 2 or 3 in free tournies and I dont know why they are going there when they dont know tactics and their class very well. But on the other hand you cant make free tournies for lets say rank 10+ only because new guilds and premades want to participate there and they should have that chance so what I suggest is:

Make pug vs pug free tournies only (you can join there with rank 10+ only)
premade vs premade only (you can join there with rank 0 but only with full 5men team.

Dunno if its best solution but something should happen here.

Hey everyone

I wanted to ask ANET if it is possible to see our pvp gear on logging screen if our characters are “parked” in heart of the mist? I think it was visible in betas. Thanks for reply.

Do you know why I dont like those downed states? Because when you are outnumbered 1vs2 or 2vs3 and you actually win the fight those players in downed state are still dealing dmg to you (around 1k per hit for example) and even you are not yet in downed state you wont stomp them in time and you will die just because of this. For me this is not skill based you have disadvantage already when you are outnumbered. Downed state is advantage for players with more numbers not for outnumbered players.

@Milo Did you know about stability? If you send one player with stability he can stomp every class except mesmer and thief is that balanced? I dont think so

pro pvper yeah……….

ofc it happens in spvp but you are the pro here huh?

stealth is bugged on his screen he is visible but for you he is 1s or 2s more invisible so you think he can use almost perma stealth lets hope they will fix it in next 5 years.

Did you actually read what I wrote?

“if you will send two people or even 5 people (which is stupid i know) to stomp thief”

your main thief I know you will defend your class np next time maybe

@Blazer Hellsing you are saying he doesnt have enough experience but it seems you are the one who doesnt have it.

If you send two people to stomp downed warrior/necromancer/eng they will stomp them no matter what they will use in downed state….if you will send two people or even 5 people (which is stupid i know) to stomp thief or mesmer they will always and I mean always get away from first stomp and thief with good timing can get away from second stomp as well. This is really imbalanced and need fixing I dont even mention elementalist because its the easiest class to stomp in downed state. Dont forget in tpvp stomping is important because if you let thief or mesmer in downed state do you really think their team mates are so stupid to let them die and dont ress them? I didnt meet such a team.

PVP game? so what we have:

Negatives:

- 4 maps with one conquest mode and one map which is terrible and almost everyone leaves it when it comes (yes its raid on capricorn)

- super uber slow rank leveling when you hit rank 20 or 30 (the longer it takes to get next level the more boring it is maybe you should have done 150 pvp ranks but people level them faster than now = more rewarding actually).

- No guild vs guild pvp content at all (I wonder why its called guild wars then

- No rewarding for team play (when you have to stay on point to defend it you wont get anything, and when you are under attack and you are defeding the point as long as possible you wont get anything again!)

- Downed states. Oh my god I dont know who created it but keep this out of pvp please. Well downed states are not really balanced at all (thief vs elementalist, warrior vs necro etc). Oh and if you are good enough to take down 2 players alone they will kill you anyway thanks to this downed mode. Delete it from pvp (if you want skill based pvp).

Positives:

- Good combat system, really fast and good dodge system I really like it.

- Diversity in builds (well not for all classes at the moment but still more than 1 or 2 builds are quite viable, but this still need tweaking)

- No gear gap (Again good choice pvp should depend only on skill of the players not on their gear stats)

- PVP crafting (again nice move not so amazing but still very good)

Maybe I forgot something but simply you have long way to go to say this is pvp game and nowadays I dont know if this game ever will be esport if you wont delete downed states from pvp…

yup its bugged WoB is normal heal as well as other healing abilities

Well why should people prove something? I personally play necro because its fun to play for me and I like its playstyle (spectral warrior) I made a thief as a first toon and when I found out how easy it is I almost deleted it. I dont play classes because they are more OP than others in pvp I play them because I enjoy them and I am having fun playing them. If you dont have fun playing your necro then roll another class but why should someone prove you something ;-)

spectral glass canon necro is awesome and fun to play…….almost everytime 100% life force so you have two life pools and it does amazing dps. Not easy to play tho

nerf thieves to the ground and give them ele downed mode so we wont see them in spvp anymore then we can enjoy actually pvp.

all classes should have same downed mode or what would be better delete it completly

necro takes too long to finish? After elementalist its the easiest class to kill

anyway downed state is quite killing pvp because no matter how good you are you cant kill two guys even you are simply better because of this downed mode

Sorry but is this pvp game or pve game because if fixing events is more important than fixing pvp then i bought wrong game

Whats bugged on spirit walk its main skill in my power build

I dont have any experiences in pve I am lvl 12 I play only spvp

I tried that before I created my power necro I would like to play life leeching/support necro but its not possible nowadays. Wells are good but their heals arent so good and doesnt stack with healing I think, and people are not stupid and when you will cast well they will dodge from it easily = one skill on cd for nothing.

Hello Scepter/Offhand dagger + Staff is best option for condition necromancer.

Focus is for power builds because it gives you skill which decrease enemy armor (vulnerability) and its usefull only for power builds because conditions ignore enemy armor anyway (ignore toughness). And 5. skill on offhand dagger is next aoe bleed so its better for stacking bleeding and other conditions.

Condition necros are very good in pvp power necros need some love first

I would like to play life leeching necromancer but nowadays its impossible maybe they will buff it but I am pesimistic

So where is that mastering DS as he said?
