- Fixed an error where solo que match making would put people of massively dissimilar rank together
- Fixed an error where players were able to get 5 stacks of dishonor. Players are now blocked from solo que and team que after 2 stacks.

2. Formatting Hot Join. to prepare new players for competitive formats such as tournaments. meaning that it’s time to set hot join maps at 5 vs 5 games, so as to not confuse and frustrate new players coming into tournaments from hot joins. 16 player matches are wildly different from 10 player matches, and if the community wants 16 player matches that is what custom arena is for.

I’d go even farther. Losing team gets their glory/rank gain cut in half. Remove points from skirmishes, double points from killing players defending nodes and for defending itself.

Thoughts on professions base health

Brutal Arts.6307

All this ele crying aside, the classes are fairly well done in terms of HP. Guardian and thieves are there with the lowest but between the blocks blinds stealths teleports evades retaliation passive heal passive condi clear, their effective HP is much higher. Compare this to the necro who has high hp and a second HP bar which means absolutely nothing when people decide they don’t want to have 25 stacks of bleed and proceed to tear out his small intestine from his mouth.

It’s best to think of hp pools with respect to disengage skills, ability to heal, ability to apply boons like protection and vigor, and ability to cleanse conditions. Ele can do all of these. Until the string of nerfs to eles, they were near-unkillable death machines. They could use some love now, but until recently they were #1 in sPVP and WvW.

This is exactly correct.

[Merged]Stun warrior meta

in Warrior

Posted by: Brutal Arts.6307

Brutal Arts.6307

After some tyhorough testing (Reading, wrecking people that dont bring stunbreakers in pvp) I can agree with the sentiment that, Stuns, when combined with sustain from healing signet(heaven forbid the banner) will wreck most everything that doesn’t spam blinds blocks and evades.

It would probably be a good idea to decrease the power of healing signet in pvp only. Once (if) anet adjusts the condi meta we will see more people taking stunbreaks/stability.

Anet please select ONE aspect of the warrior and shave it down, not all of them. I dont want to wake up, read patch notes and see
- all stuns halved
-healing signet halved
-stance duration halved
-block duration halved
-warhorn cd increased by 100%
-Sword 2 leap reduced to 300 range.

Rewards

in Twilight Assault

Posted by: Brutal Arts.6307

Brutal Arts.6307

inb4 Fun is it’s own reward

If the preview of the update is anything to go by it seems like the reward for this new TA path (and/or it’s living story meta achieve) is another (ugly) backpack and reskins of some (ugly) weapons

I’m sure whoever’s in charge there can take a look at the decline between SAB 1 and SAB 2 and understand a large part of the decrease was due to the immense nerfing of rewards. I hope the rewards for running the new Path will extend beyond what is listed, preferably beyond a measly 1.5g once per day and 60 tokens.

Some helpful examples

- New soulbound recipies for all crafting disciplines purchasable in the LA Vendor that make a variety of useful things
- A much increased amount of Empyreal Fragments with a chance at an Empyreal Star

If this “Kuraine” person can take the time to post on Neogaf, about how “hopeful s/he is that we’ll see why this was the focus for October” I’d hope s/he could get sanction to post on the official forums as well. Unless it wasn’t sanctioned, in which case I hope s/he is fed to the wolves of posting academy.

The problem is people can jsut click a button to join your group. There’s no warning ie
" ‘Player Name’ Level X Class Y wants to join your party. "

Frankly people that can’t read the description usually fail at coordinating. If I say I want all 80’s it means I want all 80s. If I say Path 3 of Dungeon y it means path 3 of dungeon Y. If I say I don’t want Class A don’t join with Class A.

This dragon isn’t for casuals, and it’s about time hardcore organized people in guilds had a real challenge.

I agree, and that content should be instanced so your guild can do it without people messing it up for everyone else. Unfortunately it’s not instanced and anything that requires more co-ordination than “not standing in a red circle and hitting the thing with all the buttons til the badguy falls down” isn’t something I want to do with random people in an overflow.

Optional would imply I had the option to do old teq or new teq. If I wanted a challenge I’d go play a non-MMO, I went to world bosses for free ecto’s.

WvW. And to cut it off now, we are not making WvW rank account bound.

Because it’s more profitable that way, for Anet. Not friendly at all to the players but anyone with a lick of sense could tell which way the wind was blowing from the

- Character Bound Dyes
- One use Gemstore Armor
- No Wardrobe System
- Useless mini’s and townclothes
- Once/day/account rewards

It would be MUCH MUCH more of a shock if it was suddenly changed to be player friendly. Everyone who’s still complaining about this needs take a long hard look at anets past decisions than ask yourself if account bound anything seems like what they would do.

If you have 1500 range, the fight is trivially simple. You just have to dodge the knock-down when you start hearing the banging noise to minimize downtime. Aside from that, I’ve stood near the barrels for just about most of the fight.

Which is actually kind of sad to be honest.
