Guild Wars 2

It’s a great example and that is my point… how many other Norn have you heard of are able to single handedly push back an entire Warband?

Exceptions are exceptions and prove absolutely nothing.

If Micheal Jordan can single handedly dribble through an entire defense and still score a basket what are the odds of any other player guarding him 1-1?

Same Logic.

Get it?

Firstly, I would like to start off and say that I am really enjoying this debate. However, I believe too much emphasis is placed on strength and strength alone. The art of fighting is much more by strength.

eg. Remember when Battista tried to fight in the UFC? LOL

I am not saying that strength isn’t important because I personally believe that it is. But there is much more of a science to fighting than any individual statistics. Especially, when it comes to something like Charr vs Norn where their strengths are not exactly directly comparable.

1. Charr were bred to fight and endure. Let us take both a Norn and charr.. and beat them both down to where they are so tired and beat up that they could barely walk. Who would be able to endure and have enough stamina to get up and continue fighting?

My vote would definitely be for the Charr, they were basically bred for this.

2. Aggression in my opinion is much more important than strength in a fight. Who can deny that the Norn warrior is an absolute kitten… but these norns are not fighting bears or gorilla’s. These are Charr.. possibly the most savage race in the World of Tyria..

My vote would be that the Charr would possess the most aggression solely based on the fact that not only is this a natural characterstic of the species.. but once again.. they were also bred this way.

I don’t personally believe that a Norn would be that much (if at all) stronger than a Charr warrior. However, assuming a slight advantage in strength given to the Norn. I don’t think that would impact the battle at all.

These are not little kittens, cubs, or even tigers. These are Charr, more comparable to the old werewolves from the 90’s movies (back before vampires walked in the sun and sparkled), the ones with walked with 2 legs, full of rage, huge fangs. claws, and just straight savage beasts.

thats frightening as well… starter gear.. as char…. *shivers*’

I had a dream that my Charr was transformed into a Nightelf… OMG it was horrible…

Well, my intent was joining the Flame Legion in attempts of World Domination… but maybe I can find a home with this Legion.

At the very least I could bend your will to mine.. enslave the other Legion clans then take over the world…. hmmmm…

=)

lol @ auto editor ^^

The population is low because sPv kitten traight garbage. It’s a pity it took them so long to make that trash. I could go back to Guild Wars 1 arenas right now and still have a much better time.

Lily is absolutely right. This is what I have been preaching since day 1.

The bottom line is the “Necromancer” in this game is not a necromancer… its an entirely new class which would have been fine if it was advertised as such (and given a new name).

The “Necromancer” of Guild Wars 2 was obviously rushed or forced. I really can’t understand how many of you cannot understand this post. Unless, the guild wars 2 necromancer is the first necromancer that you have played. The mechanics for this class are severely flawed from a Necromancer’s and Lore/perspective.

eg. To apply bleeds the “Necromancer” spams his 1 skill on his sceptre… wtf?… Are you trying to tell me… this “caster”… this necromancer’s main source of bleeds are from swinging a sceptre…

Before you flame or troll me think about this concept. This is an example of how it is being FORCED..

Conclusion:

I believe that majority of the concept of the classes of this game was done pretty well from a lore perspective. But when I look at the design behind the guild wars 2 necro.. I get the same feeling I got when I watched X-Men 2 at the movie theatre. You know that bad taste in your mouth when you realized that the exceptional lore and x-men story was completely defiled when they decided to just kill half of the kitten main characters.

Edit for spelling

No…

There is a reason that GW2 sPvP style is so much worst than Guild Wars 1.. the answer is conquest. It’s boring and bunker based. It does not allow for a variety of builds to win.

IMO ANET needs to build upon the foundation’s in PvP they created in guild wars 1. I gurandamntee if Guild Wars 2 had not already had such a huge fanbase. They wouldn’t have half of the players.

Guild Wars 2 has basically converted the hardcore pvp players into pve players due to the boring arena, lack of customization, lack of variety, and no incentives to play pvp at all in this game.

I could play guild wars 1 arena all day long. I can barely play an hour of spvp. Oh well, I guess I am stuck dealing with nostalgia untill ANET gets there act together.
