Sort out your balance. Currently it is a joke. You have trash being harder than bosses, lv 80 dungeons being harder than lv 30 ones etc etc.
Not to mention CM being a joke on story, you can do it while pretty much auto attacking, then becoming one of the hardest dungeons in the game on exp mode.

Worst boss I’ve ever played in any game, period. It was so bad I lost my entire interest in GW2 PvE. Only play PvP now.
It’s on par with the boss at the end of Space Marine
How disappointing is that? =/
Easiest and most boring boss in the game, was expecting some epic battle and we get that.
Shameful…
Right, turns out it was bugged and wasn’t resetting the mechanics when I arrived at him.
Went back in, was easier this time and I really enjoyed it!
Once the stories “meet” for every race, the cutscenes and writing just seem to get sloppy.
Tried this several times now, can’t even get him less that 75% hp.
First time I did it, I was expecting the projectile waves to only last a short while, having them last forever? Too difficult. I’m a ranged class and even i’m finding it difficult, i’d hate to have to try this as as a melee. The projectiles hit you even if you aren’t near them, we all haven’t got pin point precise reaction times you know.
Lower the difficulty so I can actually complete my personal story please.
The game is rife with them and it’s getting worse. Log in, at least 7 mails from them and several of them spamming chat for hours on end.
I expected better from you a-net, seems they have slipped through your net in large numbers, get it sorted!
Posting server rankings while transfers were still open was the worse thing a-net could have done.

Entire guilds have transferred from my server because they saw the scores. Instead of server pride and working towards getting the ranking up higher they have opted to go to the higher ranking servers. This means all the big serious WVW guilds have in fact, abandoned my server. Great system you have here a-net….
That’s just it. It’s fun for a bit then you just realise it’s the same old stuff day after day =(
Needs something more to spice it up a little. Right now it’s either zergvzerg or plavervdoor. Feels more of an extension of wvw than something stand alone.

So you want an ability with a long CD, that has to be placed in two areas, by a single character, without dying, to essentially move a group in a straight line.
Sound idea there.
When teams are exploiting it’s design as it is, yes, I do.
I mean, apart from using it as a quick way to level and karma grind, what is the real reason to do it? You don’t really gain anything from it, it’s not like spvp where you get ranks and rewards.
I just feel like going in and doing anything serious is a waste of effort, anyone else feel this way?
It use to be stronger, then carebears moaned about it and a-net nerfed it under the pressure.

Got mine to 80 almost 2 weeks ago now. Tried to like it, i really have but it’s so sub par compared to other classes both in PVP and PVE.
So I have now rolled myself a warrior, such a better class and powerful at everything =)
I’ll probably go back to my engineer when they get the love they need but it’s hanging up the old monocle for now =(
I fight against mesmers all the time. They are so powerful in PVP it’s not even funny. pve though? they suck.

Engineer mines have red circles, aoe has red circles, so portals should have red circles, it’s only fair.
Also they should not work if trying to port through walls, onto ledges, down hills or any other place other classes “travel skills” cannot reach. The portal is pretty much a cheaty broken skill right now and I can see it getting these fixes in the near future…

They need dungeons that take more than 5 people.
For a supposedly social game, it doesn’t feel very social.
For anyone curious about where this build came from originally: it’s from Teldo.
No it’s not. that guy just copied other peoples ideas.
My level 80 engineer is wearing exotics in every slot but it just feels like I’ve been given a dull rusty axe to cut down a tree while everyone else is running around with a new super sharp one.
I’m probably going to stop playing the engineer, use him just for farming for a while and finish leveling my other characters until they address all the issues.
Same here. Full exotics and I still feel like a wet sponge in pve. WVW specced into grenades and we can at least do something, well until people heal up.
I really like the female Thief armor that you see when you are picking your class at character creation. Where and how do you get that armor set? I’ve read people saying that it’s cultural gear but it’s not…
Got a screenshot of it? If it’s the one i’m thinking of then it’s in fact one of the higher leatherworker armours
Thats odd, screenshots? Last i saw during tests was legendaries having same stats as exotics.
Got screenies?
Someone pulled their texture sheets and models from a .dat file during BWE3
Too much work for a skin?
Then don’t do the work. SImple.
You know you have played GW2 too much when you log in, think “I really cba doing anything” , then log out due to burning yourself out =(
Orr is just terrible.
I was expecting more. Reaching here then discovering how bad it was has seriously put me off the game.
I gave up exploring it. great game design if you cause your players to get so frustrated they give up with parts of the game, isn’t it =/
Right now there is nothing for winning. heck, you get more rewards by letting other servers cap stuff and you take them back. Some kind of reward incentive needs to be given to get people involved more and care about the state of the map. Now i’m not talking about over the top rewards, Simply a chest spawn when the win happens which gives each player like 40/50 badges of honour and a chance to get siege equipment or something.
This is the reason why the pistol is far better than the rifle at the moment. Your strongest skill is made unplayable due to getting caught on invisible scenery, hanging in the air for a couple of seconds then missing when the enemy rolls away, doing no damage at land etc.
My opinion: Underpowered Engineer - It is realy bad at pvp and pve
in Engineer
Posted by: Bloodtau.4672
Sure they Engineer can do a multitude of stuff but does it so badly.
Needs a major buff to the class, no wonder you barely see any of them in game.
warrior? You mean thief, right?
Nope, deffo warrior. killing a player in 3 moves? Sounds ok to me.
There is nothing they really excel at. Other classes have the amazing damage, survivability or support. We have a bit of anything but aren’t actually good at any of it.
Makes me sad really =( Wanted to start doing PVP. Guess i’ll roll a warrior like everyone else and go face stomp everyone that way…
Tried all that =(
Will just give up with it. As a city that is suppose to ease people into exploring the world, it is designed so badly.
Check out the minizones. There are 3 in that central “Citadel”. And I bet at least one of those POI are actually below you.
…but yes, the Black Citadel is a pain in the butt to explore.
I remember people having the same problem before, something about having to find another way in and it puts you in the core or something? Still can’t find it though =/
There is one that says it’s above the bane as well, i’ve stood on the spot it should be and got nothing….
This has got to be the worst city out of them all. It’s so boring and frustrating.
For example, I apparently still have 3 POI inside imperator’s core, yet i’ve been around every inch of it and they still say they are above me.
Hearing about WVW during those dev talks made me so excited for WVW, it seemed like the greatest mechanic ever. However, on playing it for a few weeks now i’m so bored of it. It’s the same old thing over and over with no true reward at the end of it. Here is a few of my gripes about WVW.
1) That horrible system of loading in players when you get close to them. I have never seen a system designed this bad. You end up running into a group of 20+ that just pop out of thin air and getting destroyed by them before you can react.
2) PVE mobs in a supposedly PVP zone. WHY? If I wanted to kill AI mobs i’ll stay in the pve game.
3) Some classes being far better at it than other classes. I thought the game was trying to keep classes balanced? They are failing at that so far.
4) No lockdown timer on freshly taken objectives. Spend ages capturing an objective and feel like you accomplished something at the end? Nope, capped back 5 minutes later, sucks to be you.
5) Having to repair after pvp deaths? stupidest thing ever.
6) Having the downed state in PVP.
My list is bigger but felt it wasn’t really worth my time typing them all out so I put down a few.
You are either here because:
a.) Got killed by a HS spamming theif
b.) Got killed by a 100blades warrior.
Regardless, you’ll need to learn how to dodge.
Neither. Although those two builds are also to blame.
You must either be a thief or a warrior.
WVW and spvp won’t be good until they remove repair from WVW and the downed state from both.
I don’t even..what in the.. no. I cannot imagine why you would even think that. Can you give reasons for any of that please?
If you need an answer to that you obviously don’t do either that much….
www.ugmrz.com Come see what we do.
Regardless of your senseless provocation, your lack of answer proves your ignorance to be just as heavy as your unsupported post. Next time at least put up some information. :/ honestly..
My comment above still stands.

Dabbled in spvp for a while then gave up in frustration. The class imbalance in this game is just so shocking. Fingers crossed they fix it so spvp can become the e-sport they want and it actually be taken seriously
Made a new alt and he gets quite a lot in the Charr starter area from gathering nodes
Then don’t randomly spam them then.

You really need to hire some better coders. This is quite possibly the worse way to handle a large amount of players I have ever seen. You are fighting then 10 or so enemy players simply appear when you are near them and then it’s too late, you are dead.
No I don’t mean stealth, I mean that awful WVW system.
(edited by Bloodtau.4672)
No thanks. People don’t need any kitten boost for pve. Pve is about the fun and should stay that way
It’s not difficult, it’s just that the first time everyone goes there they are severely under geared. The other dungeons seem easier why? Better gear.

We’re concerned about this, too. It’s a pernicious problem, and irritating! We hope to have remedies for this soon.
Wait, you don’t have anything in place for this already? are you ’effing serious? =/

If I have keyloggers on my pc, or if I respond to phishing emails, or if I give my account info to family/friends, I expect my account to be compromised no matter how many times I create a unique email.
I don’t believe this is due to a compromise in their database. If that was the case I’d expect to see account hijackings on a mass scale. Several thousand accounts out of what… over a million sales? That’s small potatoes.
Growing daily. They can only hack what they can use at a time. No one is safe at the moment.
security was NOT there fault, at all, its your own/, you=using same password, email etc., or from gold seller websites.
Oh how very wrong you are.
Sadly, there are quite a number of people having the same mindset as you. It takes something like this to begin to cripple the reputation of a game, which is happening right now….

Doesn’t work.
know people that did this, still got hacked.
it’s coming from arenanets own database, I tell you.
The thing is, they should have planned for this.
Quite possible the worse account security and support I have witnessed on a games launch to date….
