*BLOOD FOR THE CHARRCAT GOD

Skulls for the skull plush cat bed?

Also, shouldn’t it be Khârncat?

You’re only doing PvE with this build correct? Then I have a few comments.

• Greater Marks isn’t hugely necessary in PvE. You could easily swap it out with Dark Armor, Ritual of Protection, or Shrouded Removal for greater survivability.
• I don’t quite see the point of Dagger Mastery in your build. I would think that Bloodthirst, Ritual of Life (which can proc Ritual of Protection btw), or Transfusion would be more useful.
• As for runes and the like, personally I wouldn’t bother changing what you have. But I suppose you could splurge on Runes of the Earth for more toughness and protection. And sigils of leeching are probably the best survivability enhancing sigils that don’t require high crit rates.

All that being said I think you could improve your tankiness even more so with a somewhat radical build shift. Something like this perhaps. With clerics gear. Can easily swap into DS every 5s to heal around ~700, lots of protection because Spectral Wall would have 50% uptime, and phenomenal LF generation. It hurts to lose the perma regen from staff 2, but the fact that you’re wearing a lot of healing power should offset that, plus you can always use boon duration runes to fix that.

Basically. I have a lot of leftover hate for the warrior; the class never lived up to my expectations since they nerfed the weapon swap sigils in uh, BW3 I think.

Interpretor.3091:

I’ll have you know that every time I teabag an individual or dance on a corpse I ALWAYS make sure that I am directly over said person.

As you can see in the above picture, this is not that case. The photo was obviously photoshopped.

Good day,
Interpretor [AD] Warrior.

Given that you cannot find your own butt with both hands, a map, AND a large neon sign I would say the likelihood of you being able to find the enemies face with your balls is remote.

A bunch of emotional pointless crap

Hey guys, nobody should ever complain about anything because you know… dead people.

Wow, apparently you missed the whole point. Sorry it went over your head. I will use smaller words and easier terms for you. Anyone that compares real life battles that took lives FOR REAL from the world to a GAME that you can RESET your PIXELATED TOON after it looks like it died, is in a pretty sorry state. To call someone names over a GAME is a pretty stupid thing to do. And anyone who says “a bunch of emotional crap” over a tragedy such as happened at Boston has no emotional quality to their life. If you all have a problem with how thing are going in GW2 Don’t log in, stay out of WvW or I’m sure there is a panda out there with your name on it in that other online game… sorry, World of Warcraft since I said I’d use terms you could understand.

We held IoJ Hills for 20+ hours, twice, while fully upgrading it and being outmanned 50% of the time.

I think you should work on your defense.

One time, I fought off the Jabberwocky, Zhaitan, 300 risen, bigfoot, 3.5 yetis, a chicken, a six foot tall midget, and a werecar for 30 years straight.

True story.

And I managed to fight off the combined fury of 10 DH forum warriors for 3 weeks straight.

Now that is next level…

So what you’re saying is… Ten v One Np? You should go see if Chris will let you join their exclusive club.

Tuluum.9638:

Itd be like calling a Korean, Japanese.

I do this all the time. It’s hilarious.

Also fun: calling an Irishman a limey, a Canadian an American, a Mexican a Puerto Rican, and many others. It’s jolly good fun to muck with people’s cultural identities.

Also also fun: saying “shrimp on the barbie” to an actual Aussie.

That is an interesting graphic to show WvW population spread and density.

I guess that goes to show something.

It’s also from September if you look at the dates.

A 3.5 yeti is only CR 3 man. That’s not very impressive. Hell, even the werecar probably maxes out at CR 7.

I thought about it yesterday, but then I decided to abuse Dynnen instead and forgot about it.

I wish mods would read and perhaps even comprehend posts before they delete them.

Hey, maybe one of them would do me a courtesy and send me a PM so we can discuss things like actual people instead of engaging in all this passive aggressive nonsense.

Edit: Make sure you guys +1 Gabby for breaking his record. It’s only polite.

Oozo.7856:

Yes, confusion is definitely the weakest condition. All of the confusion mesmers and engineers out there (and there are a lot of them) just play confusion builds because of how challenging it is for them to succeed with it. What noble souls to put themselves at such a disadvantage against other players.

Pure logic.

Be quiet Mr. Epidemic. You need me.

fost.9167:

And OI Attic, Im still playing warrior, despite most people leaving!

Without soul or purpose does the warrior wander aimlessly through the WvW.

Unbidden, unwanted, fearful of both zergs and soloers it shambles forever in twilight, knowing nothing, learning nothing, killing nothing, being nothing.

Dynnen.6405:

Actually both IOJ and DH learned something outside of IOJ BL Bay keep tonight. They eventually learned to watch their flanks. It took 100+ deaths collectively for them to learn it, but they did. By the time we pulled out they were both standing near their tower/keep watching us.

Don’t worry, they’ll have forgotten it by tonight.

Dynnen.6405:

It was a great training exercise for DR as well, and one of our warriors (Interpreter) learned something very important. If the enemy has attempted a portal bomb on us once, then maybe that one guy standing out solo might be bait

Interpreter never learns. That’s why he’s still playing a warrior.

Gab Superstar.4059:

I’m not interested in how they do it, I just think its lame that I see it almost every time DH attacks our BL, it gives the server a bad name, including all the legit guilds which I have no problem with.

Personally I wish ANet would just let us pull the camera out that far by default. People placing siege in areas where they can shoot you but you cant’ shoot back is annoying as all hell. I remember how good it felt at Halloween being able to wipe the smiles off their smug faces for a little while. Plus it was nice not having 14% of my screen covered by my warriors big, fat catbutt.

Either that or let me cast iZerker through walls again. That was the best.

Witnesses are unreliable. News at 11.

I would like to amend my previous request for drama to add a requirement that the drama be legible.

I’m a few days late, but let me just point out that of course they’re not as good as they were last month. Last month Grimpi, Viveus, and I were still playing.

Now they’re getting desperate and letting fools like Creepy Silent in. It’s like a self-debuff.

Over the microphone (VOIP), use a calm voice and be simple and clear with your commands.

“Physician, heal thyself” eh Larks?

Xsorus.2507:

Heh, as someone who runs around solo fighting other players I can safely say that anytime you see me fighting anything past 2 people in my videos, Those players are not very good. Well at least in my ranger videos, thief is a bit different (how good players in a thief video are is determined by how many people i’m allowed to actually kill in that video, the more kills i’m allowed to get the worse the players are)

This game doesn’t reward the solo player, It esp in a 1vX fight, to win a 1vX fight your opponent really has to screw up….Anything past 2 and it gets to be rather silly in trying to down some players (cause at that point, they can basically instantly res the person)

I could make multiple videos of me actually getting zerged down, I don’t think anyone person who’s ever posted a video of his fights has claimed otherwise that they don’t get zerged at some point. Sure some classes die more then others (pretty much every class but Thief/Ele will see this happen) but that’s not the point of the videos.

They’re meant to be entertaining. That is why you don’t see a lot of videos of me zerg surfing shooting people with my bow, Because no one watches them, they’re boring..

Pretty much the bigger the odds you fight against, The better your video will do. That is why you see the 1 good player vs the 5 bad ones…Because it makes for an entertaining video to fight greater odds.

Hush you. The boards don’t take kindly to logical thought. Here we require the signature of both the poster’s physician and mother before you’re allowed to discredit them.

Remember what happened to your “Stealth is OP in WvW and I can prove it” thread?

Ha. There’s a good idea for a Kickstarter. I can see the headlines and general forum kvetching now.

Gaudrath.6725:

My main point is that elitism of any kind simply sucks, and that still stands. I don’t care how well someone can play, or how experienced they are, that gives them no right at all to be condescending to other players. If you want to argue something, argue that.

And seemingly your only counter to the “hurrr im better than u b/c i r 100/0 in duals & r moar skilled than u” elitists you’re railing against boils down to “durr u suck cuz ur skills r meaningless 2 the real game” only with some false indignant righteousness attached. Hypocrisy at it’s best.

As I said before (even if it got deleted), the counter to elitism is not more elitism. You’re just ranting about something you don’t like and masquerading as some sort of noble soul who only cares for the hurt feelings of the poor newbies being trampled by the big bad duelists.

There are words for how you’re acting but all of them equal out to “kitten” here.

Gaudrath.6725:

Re-read my posts if you want. I never said I was better than anyone else or that my way is the only way to play the game. I said that it is wrong to act as if you are worth more than your fellow players just because you got skill in pressing certain buttons in a correct sequence. Simple as that.

Oh really? I must have imagined all these quotes then.

Look at all that smugness peaking out from behind your facade of civility and kindness. Don’t act like your kitten doesn’t stink. You’re being a jerk to people just because they don’t want to play the way you do.

You continuously fail to recognize that WvW isn’t some sort of grand team event. There are no rules about how people have to fight for points, or kills, or anything else. You can’t report people to the GMs for dueling, talking to each other, or even sitting in a circle in the corner of the map cybering.

WvW is, instead, a bunch of disparate people who want different things and have wildly different goals. Why you can’t respect that is beyond me, but that continual undercurrent of condescension belies your outward message of decency.

Oozo.7856:

Acelerion.6820:

I dont even know how to work siege.

It’s pretty complicated stuff.

Usually I just insult him. Let his wife worry about working him.

Gaudrath.6725:

not to mention that any kind of elitism is contrary to the kind of camaraderie and a sense of working together on a large scale which makes (or should make) WvW appealing in the first place

This coming from someone who’s posts in the thread largely seem to boil down to “That thing you do that you enjoy? You suck because it doesn’t conform to my narrow view of how WvW should be,” how rich.

Elitism is not the answer to elitism.

Which I suppose is sort of beside the point in any case. You’re not actually trying to stop elitism, or speaking out against it. You’re just trying to play “Fun Police.”

Gaudrath.6725:

WvW is a team oriented game. No two ways about it.

WvW is just an area of the game where people can kill other people who are not on their server.

That’s all it is. Trying to ascribe some deeper meaning to it is foolish nonsense perpetrated by foolish people, usually with overinflated egos.

Mackdose.6504:

Hello all,

After a heated discussion in the general forums, I’ve decided to gather some anecdotal data from the WvW regulars.

So, has the new gear affected your WvW gameplay significantly, and if it did was it positive or negative?

Do enemies in ascended make fights more difficult?
Do friendly players in ascended gear make fights easier?

Are supply camps pushovers in ascended where previously they were difficult?

I’d say Ascended gear has done little but cause me grief and woe. It completely changed the entire nature of the game for me, psychologically speaking anyways

Whereas before I could easily cultivate a small stable of characters in multiple sets of bloody good gear these days I cannot. Now if I wanted all of my characters and all of my gear sets to preform the best they possibly can I have to do boatloads of fractals, grind out the terribly tedious and boring new daily for MONTHS on end, and now I need to do these sodding guild missions which my guild is too small to reasonably do apart from the first tier.

All 3 of those things take me out of WvW, which is the whole reason I started playing the game in the first place and the ONLY reason I’ve sunk some ~900 hours into it.

For me, Anet has continuously and consciously made the game worse without adding a single positive thing. Ascended gear may only be a part of that trend, but it was a significant one.

Naturally, I no longer play because of these issues.

I predict more adjustments to underwater combat!

Engineer grenades will be nerfed again for some reason!

The culling adjustment and probably some other promised stuff will be pushed off yet again to the April patch!

kerona.3465:

Expect nothing. Then everything is a pleasant surprise.

Personally, I always expect things to get worse. That way when they do go pear shaped I can be filled with smug satisfaction.

Maladon.5760:

Attic.1562:

I have never seen a balanced match up in the history of the game. Someone is always ruining someone else’s kitten and then congratulating themselves about it, even though there is almost no way in hell they could have lost. It can get under your skin after a while.

That’s because no one plays WvW the way it was meant to be played. It might as well be two servers instead of three. The whole reason three servers is the magic number is to keep larger forces in check. IoJ and DR working together could have really hurt us.

If arenanet’s goal was to have balanced matchups in every tier there would be absolutely no need for three servers to be involved in the conflict. In fact, having three servers actually makes it more difficult to balance the tiers. If players want balance they have to create it themselves through teaming up with other servers to take down the largest force on the map(s). Arenanet gave us the perfect method of dealing with zergs and imbalance, all we have to do is use it.[/quote]

Blame ANet. The possibility of having the weaker servers gang up on the bigger one went out the window the moment they decided to make WvW a competition with a ranking ladder, a scoreboard, and a definite 1st place, 2nd place, and loser every bloody week.

This isn’t Diplomacy. Most servers in the game don’t have the kind of co-ordination required to even attempt a cease-fire. Getting two of them in the same match up is less likely to happen than a nuclear war.

I’m not even going to comment on the idea that having only two sides per match would make WvW easier to balance. Have you never played any of the games that attempted that?

Rising Dusk.2408:

Attic, I recognize that oftentimes people cannot deal with stress and resort to lashing out at others, but that is something that can be tempered. These sorts of threads can be quite exceptional; I distinctly remember how much fun the T4 thread was when we were losing against YB and CD. Sure we were outmanned, and sure people complained about it, but the general flow of the thread was positive, and everyone walked out of the match-up treating the others with respect. That is what these threads should be about.

Those are the exception though, not the rule. All it takes to permanently derail the thread is for people to not let things go. Then it devolves into the pointless, and not particularly entertaining, one-upmanship we currently have.

For example:

Dynnen.6405:

Well this isn’t exactly a tickling competition is it?

No, but neither is it a battle of egos.

Not helping.

Subtlety, Dyndyn. Learn it.

Rising Dusk.2408:

I’ve tried to be cordial during this match-up, and it saddens me that so many players and commanders have taken it upon themselves to brag, mistreat others, and create an atmosphere of animosity between all three of the servers. It is completely unnecessary, and worsens the experience for both the other servers and your own. I’m not calling anyone specific out, but you all know who you are.

Eh, you have to expect back and forth hostility really. It’s a natural reaction to stress.

And when you’re stuck in a bad, frustrating situation watching the developers continually making your own game experience worse and worse you’re going to be just a tad stressed.

I kinda understand that SBI has been through most of the same bull that DR has had to put up with the past few weeks. Getting constantly destroyed through no fault of your own because band wagoners up and left en masse is no fun for anyone, so maybe you can understand that where you guys see yourselves patting each other on the backs other people might see you being condescending. No matter how polite you might think you’re being.

And this always happens. I’ve been on the losing side of pretty much every match up since I joined the game in head start. I played on JQ when HoD was ascendant. When I played on Kaineng it was two straight months of DR constantly punching us in the face. And now I’ve been on DR ever since it lost the majority of its population to Maguuma and Dragonbrand.

I have never seen a balanced match up in the history of the game. Someone is always ruining someone else’s kitten and then congratulating themselves about it, even though there is almost no way in hell they could have lost. It can get under your skin after a while.

The best thing you can do is understand that whatever resentment or irritation that gets expressed is mainly the fault of, and should be directed at, the system and not you personally.

Kitedyou.1720:

Hrmm…this is odd…I am looking at a website that has jewels that are available for earrings and such…

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?TEApTA

I realize the site is out of date with traits and such…but what gives? How come there are items listed as WvW and PvE only??

I see where your confusion comes from. At one point in beta you could get rings and earrings in sPvP and they used the same jewels that could be slotted into the amulet.

This was removed in BWE2 iirc. Now rings and earrings are only available in WvW and PvE. The builder just hasn’t been updated to remove the ability to slot them.

sylint.7634:

All right, I’ll try out something else then.

Would a sword/axe build be a terrible idea? Like if I build my traits up to inflict bleeding and what not?

Offhand axe offers extremely little to a condition build.

The most charitable thing you could say about it would be that the laughably short duration Fury might help you proc extra bleeds from Precise Strikes. But that would be stretching things to their limit.

Any other offhand, except mace, will either give you greater survivability (shield, warhorn) or more synergy with condition damage (sword).

I’m no expect on warrior condition builds, since the options aren’t what I’d call thrilling, but if I were going to aim for a 40+ leveling build using conditions I’d aim for something like this.

http://www.guildhead.com/skill-calc#mcRkmm9coohGmoohGm0G9Mazco

Using a mixture of condition damage, precision, vitality, and power for gear.

The “reduces incoming damage” line on the Dolyak Signet is essentially a obfuscating lie. All it really does is provide a moderate amount of Toughness.

Suffice it to say, there are better things to use, even with a full signet leveling build.

Another patch not worthy of all the fuss. What a shock.

CookMETEnder.7582:

Oglaf.1074:

The problem with Burst skills is that all it takes is 20 Trait points to make saving your Adrenaline being the more attractive option. 9% Critical Hit Chance and a whooping 12% damage boost for being at full Adrenaline?

Yes please!

Not to mention Healing Surge: blowing your Adrenaline on a Burst is potentially dangerous because your healing becomes a lot weaker afterwards.

You can solve this w/ traits that grant adrenaline w/ weapon, change, crit hit, certain weapon, etc.
But yea…

It’s not really solving it though, it’s just patching up the wound a bit. Using burst skills still lowers your dps (and technically survivability via Adrenal Health and Healing Surge) for little over half of all our weapon options.

The current adrenaline system is just plain not good, irrespective of the fact that most Burst skills are lackluster.

Gravy.7589:

Hope you enjoyed your time in EB tonight DR XD. No new commanders or tranfers. The QQing just kitten us off a bit. Blame your forum warriors for lighting a fire under our bottoms.

If it got you to come out from behind your walls and off your siege emplacements to actually fight I’d say it was a positive outcome.

Gab Superstar.4059:

I hardly even read these interviews anymore. Absolutely no information is offered in any form.

It was honestly quite pathetic when even their “official” post on the forums consisted of nothing more than “this is definitely on our table, but we haven’t looked at it yet”, or “adding this to WvW is something we would really like to do, but we just don’t know how to do it yet”.

It’s all just a game that they are playing to keep people interested, while in reality they are doing absolutely nothing to change WvW.

To play devil’s advocate: what did you expect? This is how it always goes down in PvE centric games.

The only real difference here is that their pipe dreams of sPvP being an e-sport are taking up the bulk of what resources they’ll allocate to PvP, so WvW gets doubly shafted.

earendil.1290:

There is so much anger in this thread while there is so much fun on the WvW fields, in all sides.

I’ve finally managed to do the EB JP completely – there were people from DR and IoJ there and there were no fights. When we were in T1-3 they would have balistas and trebs there to welcome you. If doing the JP is fun for you – go ahead. So what if you will get siege prints, maybe it will bring more people from your server on the battle field – fun for everyone.

To my fellow SBIers, especially Rice and the Kiwis – don’t judge DR based on the few forum warriors that keep baiting opponents week after week. Most of DR are reasonable people, like us, that enjoy fights and respect their opponents. See this Alcuin guy right here.

So – if you want to focus on DR this week – do it for the right reasons. Do it because the beer is better and the ladies prettier in their keeps Don’t do it because of a few underbridge dwellers. We surely have people like them on our own server and we would not like to pay for them.

If you get angry at DR because of a few forum warriors from that server – then they won. Don’t give them that victory.

That does not mean you should not focus on keeping DR BL green if you feel like it…just do it for the right reasons, for the fun.

As I’ve asked other people before: are you always this mental or are you making a special effort?

alcuin.1257:

[blah blah blah]

I believe you’re reading things that are not being said.

I cannot see the following things you claim are being said:

1. Demand that anyone change their tactics. The best fit is Oozo commenting that he personally would prefer it if SBI did; because as it stands fighting them is boring.
2. Any claims of being better players than anyone based solely on numbers. I can’t even begin to fathom where this came from.

Though admittedly I haven’t read every post here. I tend to skip the ones that contain incomprehensible grammar.

One last thing though.

Most solo players from my perspective have just looked for kills and aren’t integrated into a team following a commander’s lead to accomplish individualized objectives in support of a zerg. They just run around, which kinda defeats the whole purpose of wvw… so in general I have a fundamental opposition to that kind of mentality. That’s not to say that we don’t have AWESOME soloers or small man groups that are integrated into team based strategies. So I’m not calling anyone else out here.

Not calling anyone out, but certainly kittening with faint praise.
Has it ever occurred to you that perhaps there is no one single overriding purpose to WvW?

Personally, I think the realm can go stuff itself. Especially since that realm is DR. The only reason I log into the game is to kill people in fun and interesting ways.

Edit: Also, let us hide all of the bloody crap that keeps getting put into the upper right corner of the screen.

Given that my confusion never hits for less than 3000 if I land all 4 hits (and more often are in the 3500-3800 range) I think it’s valid. Unless you’re rocking 100% crit I guess.

Don’t offer to bring what you can’t supply.

3800 on stack of 4 = 950 per stack. How much condi dmg do you have? Or are you lying.

4 hits with Cry of Frustration is 8 stacks due to Illusionary Retribution. With might stacks, full corruption stacks, food, and tuning crystals it’s not especially hard to reach.

Correct, you have to get the armor and weapon from dungeons. Ascalon Catacombs, Honor of the Waves, and Sorrow’s Embrace all have it for sale.

To get Soldier’s jewelry you either need ascended pieces or you can buy exotics from the Temple of Grenth for 42k karma a piece.
