ANET position on conditions problem?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

I talked to a couple of the devs just now, and they told me this is a subject they’re still reviewing and considering how best to address. It’s part of a larger discussion, as you can imagine, and changes would necessarily involve a few elements, not just condition caps alone.

While there aren’t details on changes or a timeframe in which they would be done, you can be sure that this is being reviewed by the devs and considered as part of the big picture and potential adjustments in the future.

Wow didnt expected this that fast, thank you Gaile! Nice to hear you are aware of this and discussing about! I want to be optimistic this time hoping you will do that right
Ill put my tip here for a fast bandage to the problem: let for now at least for the most damaging stack to overwrite the less damaging ( less condi damage) , that would let more use in dungeon and world bosses for more spec and let the condi set be an option in the waiting of the above “rework” if ever will happen)
Just my 2 copper

A fast edit to say im glad to be part of this community with this “staff-to-player talking”

Condi dmg is 65%-76% less DPS vs bosses

Easy fix for condition problem, LET THE MOST DAMAGING ( more condi damage ) OVERWRITE THE LESS DAMAGING , fast fix, easy to implement ( even i could program this) , condition spec are now at least usefull in open world content and dungeon, and Not much more stress for the server than now…
Ooooook now you can hire me anet?! Is it even possible this isnt came out of any develeper mind in this year? Im Not the only one supporting and promoting this feature

more than a year ago people and dev were facing and discussing the problem of the condition cap and possible solution, the answers and suggestions were something like:
increase the cap, personal cap ,we are working on that and many other like:
separate pve,pvp cap… etc…

now after more than 2 year from release and 1 from the above discussions , which is the position of ANET on the subject? are you still thinking about solution, not caring, caring but don’t have time…? working as intended??

this doesn’t want to be an angry post or nothing mean, just an informative post to let us, the community, to have your official position on this today.

Sorry if my english hurted someone, but I’m not a native speaker and writing this from my phone nonetheless

Hey there fellow Gw2 players!
Since I’ve read KehxD’s post I was inspired to pick up his ideas and photoshop a proper GUI-Element after his ideas and some additions which i really missed. (Like the Attributes window, which is a must for me while creating builds)


(Picture 1)Since the BBCode for pictures doesn’t work, I post a link to my first picture.

  • At the moment the selected tab is the “Default” build. If this one is selected you are using your current setup from the “Traits and Skills” and the “Equipment” page.
  • On the right side of the build-selection tab you see a “Delete” button. It’s greyed out because you have the “Default”-tab selected, which can’t be deleted because you need it if you want to use the old “Equipment” and “Traits and Skills” window.
  • In the upper right corner you see a Textarea, where you can enter and therefore change a build’s name (Except the default one).

If you want to see all the traits and not just the Adept|Master|Grandmaster ones, you can switch to the “Traits”-tab (on the left side, below the dropdown menu). It looks just like the “Traits”-window you are used to, and if you change it it will apply to the “Stat-Overview”-tab. (Also if you want to reset them you can do it there)
Here you can see it.


(Picture 2)So lets create another build!

  • You can simply click on the dropdown menu in the upper left corner and select “New build”
  • Afterwards it will ask you to enter a name for the new build. In this case I will call it “High Crit Chance”. Let’s press “Accept” and continue.

(Picture3)Here we see how the dropdown looks now.

  • We now click the new “High Crit Chance”-tab to select and modify it.

(Picture 4)It should look like this now.

  • You now have an empty build you can fill in by either clicking “Paste Setup to Build-Menu” in the Equipment and Trait page of your Hero-Panel or by filling in everything in yourself.
  • The build’s name can be modified in the upper right coner.
  • Also you might notice that every Armorpiece and the Skills have a checkbox. This checkbox determines if this armorpiece/skill will be changed if I apply this build.
    Example: Lets say I want to use my Ascended Backpiece in all of my builds, i equip it in the default Armor-Tab and just leave it unchecked in my build-menu.
  • This also applies vice versa for empty slots. If you check an empty slot and activate this build you will not wear any piece of armor in this slot. This can be helpful if you want to have a special slot empty, for example if you dont want to wear some Townclothing-alike armor.
  • Also whole sections can be deselected this way, by unchecking the box next to the section name.
    Example: You want to keep your armor but just want to change the Traits. Then you only check the box next to “Traits” and leave the others unchecked. When you then apply this special build, only the Traits change and the armor, and the skills stay the default ones.
  • Below/Above every armor piece you can see it’s prefix to make it easier to recognize your setuo without having to hover over every single piece.

(Picture 5) Let’s now delete the build since we don’t need it anymore.

  • You need to put in your build-name so you don’t delete it accidently and press “Yes” afterwards to accept.

More important Information:

  • Items you put into the Equipment slots or Trinket slots will remain in your Inventory while it’s not selected or not yet saved. (so you always wear the current armor, and the rest is in the inventory)
  • The save button on the bottom will save your current overall-setup, so you can reselect it or post it into the chat using the “Link to Chat”-Button on the right.
  • On the right side, you see the updated Attributes, influenced by your Traits and the Equipment, to make it easier to see the stat’s impacts.

I didn’t mention the 2nd Tab. But its simply the default Equipment-Tab so you can use the wardrobe and the dyes. Just like the Trait window.
Thanks for reading, and if you have questions I will edit the answers into my post.

TL;DR : Quick Overview in the attached picture.

nice!! not even hard to do for them , they have the code of the pvp builder already!

i haven’t read all the posts, want just to say:
this is the pvp sub forum, but, please if you ever make this feature make it for all game mode where can be more usefull, like to switch from pve to wvw, where the build need to be completely different! danke!
want to add: pls make it non sharable, all we will see every single one with the same build, ‘cause here people are a bit weird, if you don’t have the build THEY want they’’ll kick you and if not that will blame you all day long :P

hi again all, maybe all already know but i would like to inform that stil we have that non optimized trading post : that’s what it like if you put resolution to 1440x 900, the standard retina on rmbp…
plus we are forced to that because if we put higher resolution the game become implayable, and i have the latest retina macbook with all maxed out: 16gb ram , ssd, i7, and dedicated nvidia card, so how do you set it to look right?
tnx for suggestion

edit : tile was Retina display issues , but can’t edit title

To answer some poster above At moment other than some lag issues with the info on this forum i have fixed all the problem in mavericks , i wrote just to say that when someone buy this game can read : lion, mountain lion or later… And can read : keep the system updated, so.. It need to work with mavericks…..
I wanna say one thing i had in mind… If a mega computer noob like me can fix all the problem that this game have ( some of the mat least,) why some of the developer cant spend 5 min to send an upgrade with this fix by official channel? Isnt that the way the beta work? kitten people in this forum have done Gret job bypassing the Bugs…. Take them to work on this beta :P
