I especially loathe healing classes. Playing whack-a-mole with red bars is boring, and allows bad players to stay bad instead of learn and adapt. The lack of a dedicated healing class and thus the trinity, makes the game far more interesting. Sure, the combat is not perfect, but it is far superior to the boring, 2-dimensional, and completely flat combat systems of World of Warcraft, and all games like it.

You’ve obviously never played a healer at endgame. It’s arguably one of the hardest of the three. The combat in WoW is much more fluid and moving than this, it is clunky to move, and ineffective.

A-Net wants everyone to work together, but personally I’d rather spend my three measly utility skills on saving my hide, (since I have to worry about that as theres no tanks or healers) than to waste one slot on others.

Guess we know who doesn’t like teamwork folks. Had so many times when my reflect saved group from wiping. Only reason most whine is cause we lack more dungeons IMO.

No.
Anet Logic=nerf 1 thing on warrs, buff it multiple times, kitten every other class (3000hp guard lol)

1000 toughness on stun break? srs lol
super might stacking with super uptime? srs lol

would’ve at least expected the might buff on guards, then they make retal scale with condi on guards? lol……..

Low tier servers have this LS dead. Always only around 20-30 people in ONE knight in my server (GoM) lol. Most are just guesting to higher tier servers to complete it. Tell me there isn’t a problem with that?

I’ve been observing LA participation, compared to last LA event, it seems most are just discouraged and have given up. They only go for bosses and don’t even bother with the knights anymore lol.

The fact that the scaling feels so wrong — it feels as if it’s stilll scaled to 50 even though there’s only about 20-30 people in one knight. Great job on this LS. Good luck on the next.

1 out of 5 instances so far have I participated and been able to kill ONE of the 3 knights. The 4 out of 5 have all been failures with no kills. This is no longer fun.

I’d rather devs fixed the scaling as top priority.

Gonna try and be constructive here, although been really irritated and this LS is getting frustrating, and I’m sure I’m not the only one.

Is there a way to put a counter up to indicate how many players have the corresponding colored buffs? That way we don’t have to shout everytime and guess how many are in each knight.

With the recent build, can anyone please explain to me how cores will work now. Do we get a “chance” to get ONE of 3 from the reward chest?

Also I agree to^
Good luck coordinating this event with no commander tags. The fact that there’s a precise number of heads will put this event to ruin. As if it hasn’t already.

Decided not to do the events til the next build. Waste of time.

So how do we get cores now? Feed of people who are getting drops and accept the fact that people who can’t get them just can’t? Thanks Anet.

Definitely liking your build with the pull+nuke However, I’m pondering on whether to use celestial or maybe soldier. I like the idea for the thumper as well but it’s a bit too centered around it.

Although I see a lack of vigor for most of these, does that end up being a struggle or not so much? Thanks for the builds guys, might tweak around em

Hi all! Been scouring for some builds here and there. I’m planning on starting WvW with an engi and I really like bomb kit and was thinking tool kit would go well with it as well. I’ve actually found a build that uses both along with EG but it was a condi build, so I’ve been wondering would a power set up with the same kits work? I’m more interested on small group roaming/zerg than solo roaming btw.

Creating a new class and chose engi. Anyone have tips and advices? I know about the healing turret combo stuffs. Mostly confused on weapon choices; I heard Engi’s can have up to 4 kits active at the same time? If so, does that mean conventional weaps (pistol/shield/rifle) are unneeded? Also, what stats should I focus on? I would also like to ask for a build that leads up to dungeons please. Thanks in advance !

Neat, thanks for the tips

Alright, might go with engi since gf wants to roll with thief and I know thieves are squishy and need support, I guess engi provides that more. That and after researching end game, I think having a med and light armored class instead of 2 light armor classes would be better xD Thanks guys !

So gf and I recently maxed our first characters, mine was a mesmer, and she wants to roll a different one to try em out. I’ve filtered it down to these two. I’ve been scouring and sort of researching but I’m still not sure which one to go with.

I was thinking that I’d use Mesmer for dungeons/roaming WvW and, whichever wins between engi or necro for zerg and/or maybe dungeons as well. Problem is I don’t have any experience with WvW or most of the dungeons yet either. From what I’ve been reading (nothing definitive so far) engis are good support but a little below than necro damage(?) while necros have good dps but just spam in zerg wvw but aren’t too desirable in dungeons(?). So yea, I’m stuck and need some convincing on which :c

Thanks for any help !

I’d say mesmer, mostly cause I’m new from 2 weeks ago and my first character is a mesmer and currently at 74 xD But really though I’ve been enjoying this class in PvE (open world, not much opinion on dungeons cause I’ve never successfully cleared any yet x_x) If variety is what you’re looking for mesmer definitely has it. I tried Manor and Ascalon dungeons at around 60+ (both once and didn’t complete yet, will go dungeons when I hit 80) and I could certainly see how switching utils and traits around makes it a different play style right away.

Now I’m kinda in your situation cause gf wants to try a different class after we get to 80 and can’t decide between engi or necro..
