Here, in 1v1 situation only very heavy condi spam can kill you on this build. Just remember to always pop the banner.

It’d be better to lose tactics banner,grab toughness banner.You’re traited for Regen on banners,since Tactics is a regen banner..Picking toughness would give you a bigger boost in being a tank, 170/170 tough – vital + The regen going from IBS.

Tactics banner gives you boon duration for vigor (wh being the easiest one) and healing power AND has a decent heal/regen vs kb. As a bunker warrior you should already have a ton of toughness, the HoT is going to pay off more than an equivalent amount of toughness and a skill that can be ignored by many things.

Really,the Toughness banner in this situation is a better choise.Grabbing tactics will grant you regen ( the added boon duration is off no effect to a “bunker” ),the heal power isnt worth it over 170 toughness + 170 vital either.Grab toughness and you get Regen + toughness + Vital…It should be an obvious choise.

Since when is Elementalist a faceroll class?

Warrior is a faceroll class ? Are you kittening kidding me ? After all our nerfs while others have been getting buffs We are a faceroll class ? what specific warr faceroller build are you even talking about ? The build im using needs Timing,anticipating and proper use of adren filling/bursting,evading,condi cleansing etc etc…Honestly what in the kitten are you talking about when you call warrior a “Faceroll” class ?

Thanks for this post, Denied. I was just about to give up on my warrior in sPvP until checking out these videos.

HEY,YOURE NOT THE REAL TYR.THERE IS ONLY ONE TYR..
TELL EM DENIED !!!!!!!!!!

Other than that,nice post denied ;d

@Suns,Alot of stuff covered seems unimportant to some,but it can be important to newbies lerning basics of pvp,thats what denied is good in.His vids show alot of basic stuff to get the hang of pvp,how to rotate,how to use your skills properly etc.Most other channels are just promoting at how “Good” They are.

-snip-

I am not accusing servers – they can’t control these guys. I just said I noticed the 1st topic about invis&invul cheaters that far back. I am accusing someone else for not doing their job though. I mean – 10+ months and this kitten is still happening? Oh, come on.

I know,i’m getting kittening tired of it myself aswell now.Like i said every server im facing has a handfull.Like when you fight someone and just when he gets to low hp he starts teleporting around,or just straight up dissapears in the distance in an eye blink.Down someone and he starts teleporting around…As of now we face SFR and they had invis people in golems attacking our keep,their zerg did back off when they eventually noticed,so that’s kudos to them atleast ( Not blaming an entire server,i know its just a few ).Not saying it happens constantly though,But yea fun stuff for sure if it does happen.

@Dal,they do bann them..and they do react ( If online ) when you report someone as a botter ( Botter reports stands for Hackers aswell ).Reporting someone as a Botter is the Only way that a dev Will come over to check out the person in questoin..Again,if the dev is online..

You Can report them….Report for Verbal abuse…and be done with it.They will read the chatlogs and he will get a bann for being this stupid.

These 2 have been reported countless of times through the verbal abuse option. If they do not this, they will build pointless siege to waste supplies/ getting to siegecap.

I know it can be a hassle,but make a proper report and email anet with screenshots showing what he says,or make a vid on how he’s wasting supply aswell ( They will bann him for that,it’s griefing ) if you really want this guy to be dealt with.

No No No No No No No No No……

F2p Community’s in most F2p games are plain horrible…Imagine pvp being overrun by F2p players who do not care about this game At All..The amount of trolling would be insane because simply..They dont care about the game,its f2p,they dont care about its community,they dont care if they get banned either.If you think the attitude in Sq is bad now…you will cry when F2p people come rolling in.

F2P = free to play
GW2 is a free to play game (no submission on that) if u want to play tihis game, u need to pay only 1 time and not on the others “Free to play” games where u shop for win

Guild Wars 2 is B2P….Not F2p.
Hence the OP’s suggestion..To make Gw2 F2P.

F2p is Archeage,RaiderZ,etc etc..Unpolished games with bad community’s and hackers galore.

Big difference.

Challenge important, no condition important

Caedmon.6798

Condition need fix in wvw. Why condition more important than skill? Why condition more important than challenge? I no understand why is it? Challenge is good; good fight, hard fight, long fight, learn fight and learn lose; try harder training. Challenge and Skill is important because from training hard and get better.. Not condition! from no training; only condition use. Wvw is good place challenge; good fight, show hard training. Not condition only: cheat, easy fight, win easy. Need fix that.

1. Suggestion; ban all condition with food exception necromancer; condition only class.
2. Suggestion; Condition 1 stack only… die.. no condition.. exception necromancer condition only class.

sorry English second language.

Did you just fought Deso or something ? " Stand in a ball and self spike"…No dont move..Lets just keep standing here in a ball and spamm aoe’s ..No dont push!!..Just wait here ..Keep spamming those Aoe’s on our own spot! Eventhough we have 2x their numbers.

Ah, the good ol’ invis+invul cheat, whose 1st users were, ironically, on FSP, around mid/end February. Before this thread magically disappears – anyone knows if they actually got banned, transferred, or quit from boredom?

Stop making these stupid accusations,these guys are on every server.That You don’t notice it doesn;t mean it isn’t so.Every server i have been faced with either has invis people going,teleporters,speedhackers,or no clippers.They were here Far before they even started kittening around on fsp.

No the hardware’s dosnt exist to play 4k never mind 5k well on any level of graphics settings

Tbh,im not even gonna bother with 4k..There are so much scaling issues going on even in windows,webpages,and in most games..30hz,30fps with vsync on cap…The need to own a High end gpu,or even in sli/crossfire. and than still averaging 22 – 37fps in games like bf4..4k – 5k is such a hype for people who have too much money and want the newest thing Right away without proper hardware available to make it all run smooth.They give up so much just to be able to run at that reso with a crappy fps.

Level up Knockdown - Get rid of it.

Caedmon.6798

With the amount of xp boosters and general xp leveling which is way too fast in WvW,it Is a frustrating thing if youre running in a small party and getting a “random” 5 sec kd which makes you lose a fight which you otherwise shouldn’t.The kd has no place in wvw,either reduce that ridiculous long duration and make it to 1 sec or get rid of it all together,the only one’s liking it are the people abusing it,as the tomes.

Honestly can it go it already? The amount of times i’m getting a 5 sec knockdown that’s stronger than any knockdown i have available on my skillset because of a random level up is getting ridiculous,usually it’s an insta die moment if you got no stabi left.Remove the knockdown when you level up in wvw,simple.

Increase Shield Bash Stun

in Warrior

Posted by: Caedmon.6798

Caedmon.6798

The stun duration is enough really,you use shield bash as an opener for other skills like evis.
I’d rather see shield block getting some love,like 3 sec of added stabi while block is up,so you don’t get pulled out of it by an engi or screw yourself over with running through a line of warding or getting randomly feared out of block etc.

The necessity of stabi when you pop shield block is big atm, 3 sec added stabi would improve it bigtime and no need to waste a 60 sec cd dolyak or a 40 sec cd balanced stance just to be sure your shield block stays effective.Just make it so the stabi doesn’t get shown as a boon ,but rather added to the effect of shield block itself.
Like;

Shieldblock;

Block attacks,unable to be feared,stunned,dazed,pulled,knocked while in effect.
Duration: 3 s

Yeah I don’t really like this. Shield Block can only be countered by unblockable attacks. IMO, a skill having a counter is a good idea.

The point is that shield block has too many counters.We only have one block on a 30 sec cd,it’s not like we can spamm our blocks like guards can.3 sec stabi is something that would greatly improve the effectiveness of shield block.

Remember, constant flipping of all objectives except for primary (hills/garri/bay that have waypoint which is a clear indicator of when it’s under attack) is perfect for the karma train! Run in circles, re-take everything back Basically wvw is now like EOTM but with waypointed keeps
Plus with points assigned per kill, who cares about towers anyways — run into zerg, wipe it = same amount of points. No need to sit/scout/upgrade.

Yeah overreact much ? Get some scouts in your towers and make proper reports and its all fine.Tbh i dont get the OP at all,as a small scale havoc squad we’ve had some awesome fights last nght and been able to cap stuff we normally wouldnt been able to cap with just 5.Thats Your mentality speaking,anet removing the white swords doesnt mean you should all zerg harder….

Not everyone plays the game the same way…. While it’s great for people like yourself wwho use the 5 man to PPT and tower cap, it’s useless for the other 5 man teams who like to use white swords to attempt to dismantle enemy zergs and create disorder among the enemies till allies come to help wipe them…

Well thats true,and it was what we were doing in the past aswell…If things change you adapt right?

Thats what ive been doing on and off for over 2 years now,scouting is not new…You make rotations with other people on your server.

You dont need a bow for a thief..im running sword/shield hamm in wvw and i have no real issues soloing thieves.Use leg specialist for immobi – land your cripples well,and time your knockbacks.Dont just spam away vs a thief,if youre able to lock him down with immobi and a knockback/stun combo,leap when he ports away on kd and earthshake him down after,flurry works wonders aswell with final thrust after 50%.Its just all about timing and anticipating vs thieves,which can be hard at times.

Maybe i put it a bit blunt,what i meant was.I played Tera for about 2 months before i dropped it,couldnt stand the horrendous grind,camp after camp its all the same every quest is the same every mob is a recycled mob youve seen before.Fast forward archeage,eventhough on paper it has more to offer than gw2,the grind,the repetitiveness..again camp after camp,quest after quest its all the same.Wheras in gw2 ive been playing this for 2 years,on One character and im not bored yet..eventhough i did take my breaks.Do have to admit i cant see myself doing the pve aspect allover again,im not an altoholic in most mmo’s i only have one char.The repetitiveness may be there,but its masked by great combat,awesome graphics,fluid gameplay and a polished overall game that most mmo’s can learn alot from.

Guild Wars 2, the repetitive mmo?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Caedmon.6798

Caedmon.6798

Life itself is repetitive, me boyo….

I think by the age of 47 I’m well aware of that. LoL I’m talking about a game that uses repetition to make up for a lack of actual original content. It’s a 2 year old mmo game that has been slowing down on content delivery since it’s first year but with the game’s makers trying to make us believe we are getting a lot. It is for nothing I suppose but it isn’t really for nothing due to the game ship and even at that I would rather pay for guaranteed substantial content.

I doubt you played a whole lof ot mmos by the sound of it.Gw2 compared to many other mmo’s handles this “repetitive gameplay” very well.. Take a look at archeage or Tera for e.g,Then you can talk about something being repetitive up to the point its becoming painfully obvious the devs were just being lazy.

Some people have basically confirmed that GW2 is being throttled for example. If you’re being throttled, it is possible to only affect GW2.

When will it be fixed? If it’s an ISP issue, it’s entirely up to them. Not everyone is experiencing lag, so it’s not likely an issue with GW2’s servers.

How does throttling work,is it based on the ports being used that are connecting to gw2 or your mac/ip itself and the ip of gw ? If it’s ports than it could help by using /clientport 80 instead since those are always wide open and used for browsing etc right ?

Is this a hack?

They do tend to pick classes where it’s less obvious…But still obvious enough for it usually only to be happening when they get low on hp..Remember Lagswitches ?,it seems exactly like that.

“The term “lag switch” encompasses many methods of disrupting the network communication between a client and it’s server. One method is by attaching a physical device, called a hardware lag switch, to a standard Ethernet cable. By flipping the switch on and off, the physical connection between the client and the server is disrupted"

Ive seen the same happen alot,it really doesn’t bother me..I get my loot,wxp and a good laugh for someone bothering to exit the game and having to reque again because he cant play for kitten..Go ahead,keep logging off when downed,it makes me feel all warm inside.
