Guild Wars 2

After seeing the patch notes I really can’t find the words to explain the current state of the profession.

Best of those who are willing to stick with it, your resolve is beyond mine.

Good bye Rev.

I deleted my Revenent after seeing the patch notes. This class is dead and beyond fractured. I really don;t understand what they wanted it to be outside of a hammer 1 spammer in WvW.

Later cub.

Don’t gamble man, use it for QOL items for your account.

Care to show us a recording of your gameplay?

If shadowplay isnt available for you then use the local record feature of OBS, takes very little stress on your fps – you dont need top notch quality.

Three matches would be great.

From my perspective you completely underplay the ‘’yeah I make mistakes and I know them’’
No, you’re silver. If you’re silver then you make far more mistakes than you realize. Hell, even at my level I constantly make mistakes that I don’t understood during the game. That’s why I always recorded my scrims when playing professionally to ifnd them.

I’d be very impressed if you could properly kitten yourself and you are in reality better than everyone else in your division but the only thing keeping you down is that you get awful teammates and good opponents every time.

Like, genuinely amazingly impressed

500g level impressed.

I had something MUCH longer initially typed up, but anet’s servers decided to log me out while attempting to post, so TL;DR re-do:

Firstly, I’ll say thank you for making an effort to look at my game play and see where I went wrong, I appreciate that. However, I just don’t care enough anymore man. sPvP for me (and apparently my entire guild/friends list) just isn’t fun anymore. Maybe In S6 I’ll give a kitten enough to record my game play for reviewing.

see this is why no one can get any where.

You come to the forum to complain about the game and then dont actually want to discuss your game play.

My constant complaints have been about match making/ the leader board and rating system.

I post pics of the people i play and there rating and say what is this?

Your posting a cry thread and to be honest you wanted to say what you wanted and walk away since you dont care about the end game matter.

If your gonna write about broken ELO match making, you could of at least attempted to argue it, everything you wrote was circumstantial.

For every argument or scenario I could possibly post there will be some individual who will post “well if you did X then you should have done Y”. I’m not going to entertain hypothetical what-ifs when I’ve clearly stated what I intended in my original post. I already said I carry my own gameplay just fine (inb4 that’s taken apart piece by piece) and that my teammates have continued to disappoint throughout my matches.

Entering the season late, I was placed low gold initial match ups were a challenge, no biggie. I made my way up solo q to mid/high platinum. After this week I’m now low silver.

I know how to rotate, I win my 1v1’s and hold out during 1vX/disengage when appropriate. My teammates on the other hand are seemingly straight outta Best Buy with their CD keys. Yeah I make mistakes too and I’m well aware of them, but man, oh man.

I’m no pro leaguer who can carry his team on his shoulders and I’d be kitten ed if I said this was frustrating, because its not. I just can’t care anymore, though I care just enough to post here venting my frustrations. I can’t care about this matchmaking system that for some ungodly reason pairs me with people who do something reminiscent of drinking bleach in the corner of the room.

This season has mentally drained me, and it’s just not fun anymore.

Impressive, you’ve proved that you’re a good player (no kitten). This is a sample size of 1. This proves nothing in the grand scheme of things. I’m probably leaning towards the sheer luck that you got in terms of team comp and your teammates skill level. I don’t think it matters how good you are individually if the rest of your team came straight out of queensdale.

My PvP Team asked me to swap classes, I got put on the sidelines for raids… Not really sure if I can continue playing my Rev in the current state of the game.

Have their been any Dev posts in regards to the next balance update?

“I’m not really upset with the changes that were made”

You should be, we’ve been removed from the raid meta. Which is pretty high on the suck list.

Title says it all. How does this skill even manage to get past QA (assuming there is any at this point).

Whether it’s the first or second teleport one of them needs to be removed AT LEAST.

Delete Bristleback.

Get real.
No one’s interested that you lost to a mere Ranger pet, too.

Just cause you get carried by an OP pet.

Delete Bristleback.

It sounds like you’re disconnected multiple times in the last day or two to get a timeout that long.

Really? Do you think over the last day or two isn’t overkill?

It’s hilarious to see people complaining about thieves yet 9/10 matches NO ONE FOCUSES THEM. They can disengage fairly easily, but 2 good crits and they’re down. I’ve played thief since beta and even with the current (lazy) buffs we got all I can do in any given match is +1, engage in a 1v1 or 1v2 to stall AoE spam classes from engaging in TF’s and decap. Nothings changed, things just die slightly faster.

Dang Hunk it’s incredibly weird to see you not type in all caps.

Dodge to blow traps or dodge to avoid a 4 second cooldown that does 8k+ crit. DH needs to be toned down.

InViictuZz.1705:

why not delete all traps??

I’m fine with that, less cancer, more Pre-HoTs gameplay.

New Meta, or just terrible unranked queues,

Classify this pre-patch pvp into one of those and pray that you get either Necros, DH or Eng on your team.

I really don’t think I’ve enjoyed PvP less in this game since Bunker Eng plagued us. The amount that get’s accomplished in team fights by spamming AoE is absurd. Combined with traits that do 80% of the fighting/self sustaining for you I don’t know why I’m even still playing right now.

I really hope ANET has another balance patch on the way.

yep … because of this type of guy we got nerfed x) incredible
dude just lemme tell u something , if u die against a druid support dat goes condi with sword/torch , u’r just a very bad player , this spec is not meant to kill , it’s meant to assist

Are these 3 guys imbeciles by any chance and unaware of concepts like CC, because if not, 3 players > 1 druid.

There are 2 druid build that are god mode 1 on 1 and 1 vs many. Why are you not familiar with it? Well those ppl wont give you their builds ( I know I wont) couse it would be nerfhammered

DH is easy to counter : put some condi pressure and he’s down.
cele reaper
cele scrapper
cele tempest
???
counter DH easily.

Go fight a good DH and let me know how that goes, even condition pressure, which is the most viable option, is still difficult to deal with.

-they still have a decent condi clear that heals them a fair amount for being marauder, that’s not even counting blocks. A guardian’s usual weakness is that they’re slow, but that is migitated with the longbow and it’s many features including an unblockable shot at 1200 range that does 4-6k with only a 4 second cd. They will kill you before your conditions even make an impact.

-Dragonhunter rewards passive play way too much, I’m alright with setting traps to do damage and stuff that’s cool, but it’s entirely too faceroll. I gave the meta build to my friend who doesn’t even really pvp and she was destroying people in team matches multiple times. It shows just how easy to pick up it is, which wouldn’t be a bad thing if it wasn’t an apex predator.

Replace DH with Reaper, Druid, Bunker Scrapper or Herald and your argument still holds up. PvP is in such a state right now that it’s in need of one big rehaul. I’m assuming that the devs are working on leagues and a huge balance patch. That would explain their silence as of late.

Reapers are fine, tricky though. Dragon Hunters kitten me up beyond belief.

I was thinking Zerk mixed with Knights and Strength runes. Zerk GS and Zerk Staff as well. Anyone have any ideas?

Game is an annoyance to play. Did my dailies and logged off. Terrible idea not to have a toggle.

Manmode is 14/14/14/14/14 no armor, triforge pendant and p/p with venomshare while solo roaming. Your argument is invalid.

Pop thieves guild followed by your venoms and you’d still win in a 1v1.

So I just recently got my male T3 armour, and despite knowing of it’s looks for quite some time, the extreme lack of detail and style design when compared to the females is pretty disturbing. Why the lack of detail on the males ANET?

Actually considering makeovering my Ele to a Female.

What do you all think?
