Getting sick of finally getting the target I want with your god awful targeting system in this game, only to have it drop my target or select something ELSE when I cast a skill. No I don’t want to waste my elite on akittenpet or turret just because you have terrible coding in place which makes this happen.
Code in a system which locks down your target until you actually select another. Make the game actually playable.
I really don’t think so, it is more that engi is not nearly as popular and is far more complex then those professions.
Engi can be VERY tanky
Engi Has the best CC and control
Engi has some of the best condition and is easy to apply
Engi has the highest burst potential
They are amazing but most everyone who plays them are simply horrible. This is is mainly due to high skill cap and not popular profession.
Guardian I feel can be on equal footing with an engi and guardians are also vastly easier to play and more popular which leads to people focusing on the guardian and simply overlooking the engi.
Warriors are not as good as engi right now but again take one of the most played professions that is overall rather simple and you have a lot of QQ on the warrior, not to mention the fact that a lot of people even though they don’t admit it, are terrible at pvp. They then complain about broken warriors with 100B which is laughable to people who know what they are doing.
Playing an engineer for 2 betas and now since release I can safely say we have none of this.
As I said, we can do a bit of everything but aren’t great at it and other classes do those roles better.
In wvw, learn to love your grenades. They can do some serious pressure damage and condition spreads onto the larger groups.
Also, flamethrowing through doors, enough said =p
Some nice feedback here, thank you =)
Honestly, this wasn’t a troll thread, I was just looking for what people think makes them great in their own eyes.
I’ve just been able to tie down to something. I tried a burst class, not as good as other burst classes, conditions, also not as good as other classes..
Keep hearing about point defence though, may have to try this.
All of it.
Downed system has to go, classes need balancing, some form of actual progression needs to be apparent, et etc
What makes a mesmer Op?
Everything.
Is there anything they are even good at?
They are trying to do stuff but other classes just do it better, it’s so frustrating. I put all this time and effort into a class getting it to 80 only to really find out it stays pretty kittened anyway….
^^ sorry but the guardian and warrior is leagues above the engineer.
Even low servers have queue. Might as well be in a queue to get WVW xp where you will get a good amount than one where you get barely any.
@Bloodtau.4672
How ambiguous can you be? You already proved your ignorance and lack of sense, just stop please before you make yourself look worse. Rumor trolls are always fun… actually just looking at all your past comments all you do is flame threads, reported.@Flying Dutchman.3214
The keep had 500 in it which = 5 golems. Then 200 for the camps north and south, then we just keep bringing supplies back from them over and over. Yaks deliver 75 each to castle as well.
Over defensive aren’t we? Maybe I am closer to the truth than people realise 0.0
Game is dying, so what are you doing to fix the only content you have?

Amount of players has doubled since preorders but game is dieing? I don’t even want to waste my time reading your post, you need to delete this.
Because it is free. If this game was sub based it would be leaking faster than star wars did.
Mr. Big, where does a necro fall into this? Who should play a necro and for what purpose that isnt achieved BETTER by playing one of the top three classes? Who should play a warrior when they can play Guardian? Who should play any dps class when thief will outperform their dps and mobility?
Exactly. Why play the other classes when these 3 do the roles much better.
All aboard the kitten thread, choo choo…
8v8 is perfect.
5v5 is too small.
The game is currently getting destroyed due to the same 3 classes being rolled by every Tom and his mum. Need to get something sorted out arenanet please.
WVW is pve with players. Nothing more.
WVW isn’t PVP, simple.
It’s a way to earn fast xp and karma and nothing more.
Lol, people thinking WVW is actually something….
For me they only show as “Server Invader” + “Guild Tag” + “title” I think… and everyone have same color of Armor.
Once you click them, you get their full details =)
It shows player names and both their guild names/tags and titles…
It’s not worth the cost due to how bad it actually looks.
That much money for such poor skins? I’ll pass.
They have a lot of neck beards on benefits.
You could try getting more health.

Not the issue but thanks for your useless reply anyway.
Thieves need a rebalance, full stop. No arguing against it.
Bloodtau there is a buff called stability which you might need to look into.
Read what I put again. Has nothing to do with what you posted.
herpkitten i cast stability when downed. huh, what?
I was talking about the skills classes get access to when downed. You know, like thieves teleporting everywhere, guardians getting an aoe knock back, then classes such as the engineers getting some god awful pull and an explosion on the longest cool down ever.
Downed needs to GO completely. No rework, no nothing, simply get it out of pvp.
Way to exploit. You are a shining example to the games players…
Also only allow people with an account linked to that server be able to view and post in it. to avoid name calling and spying =)
Thank you very much if you make this happen!
Putting the downed state in pvp is quite possibly one of the worse decisions they could have made.
Now instead of majorly imbalanced classes, we have majorly imbalanced downed classes as well! (some that even have better skills than when they were up) While other classes have utter dogkittendowned skills.
No.
As the game currently is, it will never become an e-sport.
Things that we all want: Arenas and Que with friends and spectator mode.

if WoW’s pvp is dead right now then GW2’s pvp was never alive to begin with
Wow has pvp? last I saw it was who could get the best gear the fastest.
I’ve so far heard every profession except elementalists and necros referred to as OP more than once. Your point is both invalid and of childish disposition, and I would assume you will continue to be a bad player for quite some time until you adjust your attitude.
Lol Engineers OP. Wish this was actually true my friend. We can do everything but not be good at any of it.
Until they actually balance the game, this kind of stuff means sweet jack all.
Also, the promise of an e-sport? Don’t make me laugh.
Raid of the capricorn is just so bad. Every time it rotates into it I leave it’s that terrible. Please let us choose which maps to opt in or out of.
No they don’t harvest them. I found out the hard way….
So every server funnels through the BLTC?
Yes
It’s all gambling. Sometimes salvaging lv 70+ golds can net you 1 ecto, sometimes it can give you 3.
The boulders and the adds that can mess up your party are more than enough to keep melee characters busy…
Between the ridiculous respawn rate on the blossoms, combined with them bugging out all the time and spawning one every 4 steps through out the entire dungeon,putting these in was probably the worst decision in a dungeon, full stop. Just remove them. They don’t add any “strategy” or “danger” they are just an annoyance and makes people even more frustrated with this dungeons bad design.
Onto the way points. Why is it that after spending a good 30 minutes in a dungeon and clearing many rooms, that the nearest way point is BACK AT THE START? WHY?
Every other dungeon spawns one after every “boss” room, so why not TA? No, instead i’m forced to run for a good 5-10 minutes back through every single room I have just cleared, BACK through all the blossoms that have respawned, only to possibly die again if I miss one and be forced to run back AGAIN.
Long story short, All the dungeons are pretty bad, but Twilight Arbor just takes the cake as being the worst in the game.
Face it, Spvp is just bad with how it is currently.
Worst map in existence.
On my server I find it hard to find ANY dungeon group.
This is the only thing you can pretty much do end game and we can’t even do that.
Waited 5 years so I want to stick at it but every time I log in, spam for a dungeon group for ages then get bored and log out.
The whole dungeon is crazy hard. The asura path is pretty much non completable. You get past the theif boss and then you hit the caves with like a gazillion silver mobs in. That’s where parties collapse out of frustration.
Transfer now costs gems according to a guild member.
You can’t expect entire guilds to pay gems to transfer for your sake.
Then he is lying to you. Some guild member he is….
The guy on gamebreaker described it best
“I was watching it and thinking it was a video ad before the guild wars 2 trailer started”
I preferred guild wars 1 to guild wars 2 is right now, I can tell you that.
Guild wars 2! And their epic “spam 2” turret fight. Come on down and collect your reward guys!
So their aim of “community driven game” I was quite surprised they didn’t have server forums from the start…
They’d need to limit it though, only characters with characters linked to that server can view and post in it though.
When the pact forms, the story just goes down the drain. From then on I hated it. It was so tedious and the story felt horrible. I only did it because I pretty much had to so I could push on with the game.
About people saying “I play for fun”
Do you honestly find WVW fun? Like I said, I have tried to get into it but it is just badly designed. zerg vs zerg or players vs door. take your pick =/
And stuff like this is why WVW is terrible in this game.
