Guild Wars 2

So does this count as a 2v1? Let the down talking begin.

Callahan.3180:

LOL I have a buddy who’s got 80 with almost all classes and he likes to find broken specs. He told me he was able to stack over 5 minutes of protection on his guard if he sat there with perfect skill chains…. just lol. Naw best you can do with warrior is stack p,t, crit. or cav trinkets and a mix of valk/p,t. crit dam armor from fractal. That and lyssa runes make you hard to kill.

The lack of boon duration nerf in pve just screws us over in WvW. Boon Guardians are just out of control in WvW.

I dunno why they didn’t fix it as they did in spvp.

I don’t know why they took rings, accessories and back pieces out of sPvP as well either. There’s no dynamics in building for spvp which is why I don’t play it. I play wvw because you can gear stack more and there’s not much they can do against gear stacking. I kind of encourage it. At the same time If you see a 5 minute protection guardian you know to just swerve around him like roadkill on in the middle of the road lol….. let him swing at the air.

SharadSun.3089:

Reviver’s Might, Versatile Power, and Mobile Strikes are all bad. xD

Go play ranger then tell me mobile strikes are bad. It’s honestly the best trait we have at the moment and is incredibly strong. You’re basically immune to immobs if you carry the right wep sets.

Mepheles.2087:

So first off, I chose hammer, because I don’t like GS builds, and 100spam. I’ve been practicing and practicing, but no matter what I just get jumped by thieves, and blind spammed to death, being smack by 6k backstabs. 3 times, I fought a thief, but it’s not like I could do anything as I was blinded 95% of the time, playing my kitten off while he he moves back and forth out of my range. I honestly don’t know what else I Could have done. Any advice is helpful as it’s annoying to roam through our WvW lowlands escorting yaks and I can’t kill someone by myself.

I’ve posted, but i’ll post again. Try out my build in the 29 minute video I have posted. If you can’t get ahold of all that just run full valk armor and exotic cavalier trinkets (balthazar temple). Lyssa runes and the sigils on my weapons are a must. Add me in game if you ever want some pro tips

Watch some of my videos. There’s ways to kill almost all thieves. You must be familiar with their variety in builds though. If it’s a perma dodge thief who has endurance regen out the max, then you most likely won’t kill him. Perma stealth thieves are fun because you wait till they HS out of their smoke circle then blind ES them. If you see a refuge come up, be sure to pop ES in that circle and then use hammer 4 while in the center. You’ll see a naked thief get knocked out it’s hilarious. Pistol thives I use my shield reflect on for a good 1/4 of damage to themselves. If it’s a glass thief you should be able to counter their venom with bal stance and then a shield 4, hammer 5 etc.

All of those GW2 clips are warrior solos.

Dolan.3071:

And we reach the inevitable point where no Warrior vid shall be taken seriously because to lose to one must mean they are a complete noob. The painful thing is, it’s true. A Warrior winning in a situation other than greatly outnumbering their opponent is a result of a rubbish opponent or lag, a skilled Warrior vs a skilled anything else will end in our defeat.
I once thought of uploading videos of my success in PvP/WvW, but I may as well have been fighting children that’s how little of a challenge it was. Yet as the OP stated if we went to upload videos against skilled opponents we wouldn’t have any videos to upload.

I agree partially, but disagree when you state a skilled anything will end in our defeat. It depends where you are on the battle field. I never fight in open, flat land because that is surely a demise on its own. A warrior must always fight near some kind of walls, mazes, cliffs, or some other environment where they can LOS (line of sight) their enemy. You find me doing that in a lot of my videos because that’s a step you can take to put yourself in a better advantage. So on flat duels, I might loose a few, yes. But that is ultimately a boring, non dynamic way to fight anyone. That’s why we play in a 3d game world after all

My statement about having nothing to upload against skilled players is partially true. Again I will emphasize it is where they are on the battle field that is key. We are kings of jump puzzles. It’s the truth. We are really great at LOSing rangers and engies, sometimes mesmers. I will say that any mesmer who’s played warrior generally beats me because of my lack of sustain in drawn out fights. Necros usually beat a warrior now if they stack condi’s. Those chills are just brutal, so brutal. Guards I usually beat unless they go boon stacking builds and have a million protection.

But I will say that my point of this video was to spread some lols. It always feels good to kill people who try to gank you in an unfair way. Whether they’re good or not, it feels “sick.”

Caedmon.6798:

Here it is mate https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/warrior/How-are-Warriors-in-1v1/page/3 As you see,most people say it impossible to 1vs1,warriors are bad,theyre a joke etc etc…yawn yawn.All l2p issues yet people act like they know it all and blame the class for their own lack of skill.

You’re lying, aren’t you? No one in that thread says that it’s “impossible” for Warriors to fight and win duels against other classes – what most are saying is that they struggle badly. The problems that the majority of Warriors are having are normally more to do with the relatively poor design limitations of the class against the comparatively superior design of other classes. Lack of skill on the part of the player isn’t the definitive factor simply for the reason that your opponent (in any given scenario) can be either far better or far worse than yourself, and all the areas in between. Undoubtedly, in many cases poor playing-skills are the problem, but don’t try and b*llsh*t us that’s the real issue with the class.

These videos posted-up which show Warriors killing other classes with ease – are we to believe that these opponents are all highly skilled, talented players? Or could they be absolutely terrible players? Who knows, and that’s why most of these videos are largely irrelevant. Cherry-picking a video of a Warrior beating a couple of opponents in WvWvW doesn’t prove that the Warrior class is fine as it is. I play amateur football – if you video’d me through the course of the season and edited together a highlights package of my best bits I’d almost look world-class. But I am not.

So are Warriors bad? Generally speaking, no. Warriors excel in PvE and are a capable class in WvWvW. The problem (and where most of the complaints justifiably originate from) is that Warriors are unarguably the worst class in PvP. This is not solely my opinion, but the consensus opinion of the Warrior community, of the game’s community as a whole and most importantly, the opinion of the Developers. They acknowledge that Warriors are in dire need of help in this area and hence this is why, (along with Necromancers,) we are due to further receive a number of changes in the upcoming balance patch.

But still… we’re all wrong, yeah? Well, no we’re not. Thankfully ArenaNet recognise that you cannot base class balance around the abilities of a few big-headed braggarts who may or may not be able play just that bit better than most. If they did think this we wouldn’t be the focus of these upcoming changes now, would we? So no, we all don’t need to just “l2p”, what we need (and what ArenaNet will hopefully, eventually deliver) is a class which is equal in capability in PvP to the other classes.

Now, tell us more about how talented and awesome you are… yawn, yawn.

You make a great argument and I understand many of your valuable points. I will not deny the facts as you are completely right. I wouldn’t hold your breath on class balance lol. It is a very slow process and I feel like they’d rather put out garbage dungeons that last a week than focus on something that’s actually valuable. Atleast that’s how the last few patches have been.. sigh.

I cannot argue with you in spvp, but from my experience in WvW, I have encountered a lot of success in solo roaming. I wish my computer was good enough to handle streaming, or else I totally would. There are many steps you can take to put yourself in a better situation than most of the opponents you face. I just happen to know a lot of them. I’ll be making an example video next with annotations to help others. A lot of playing warrior is also how good you are with game knowledge and builds that other people use. Once you’ve played around with some of the skills a mesmer, thief, or guardian has, you’ll know how to counter some of them. Of course there is the occasional skilled player on a certain strong class such as a mesmer, and those fights I won’t win, but I can try. I’ll show some of those videos as well.

I disagree that “most of these videos are largely irrelevant,” because it highlights some of the steps I take to put myself in a better situation than some of the opponents I face. Once and whenever warrior finally gets a fix, gameplay knowledge and positioning will still play a great role in how well you do in solo WvW. Just because it’s an under powered class doesn’t mean there aren’t ways you can use to win. I exploit the hell out of terrain just to live. I take pride in that because we’re one of the few classes that can.

Lylandrissabelle.5463:

If they do bring back deep wound condition I think it should be redesigned for GW2

Make it a condition that causes 1% maximum health reduction, stacks intensity up to 25%. various warrior skills could apply it in differing amounts of stacks & lengths. For example, Eviscerate and Kill Shot could deal 20 stacks for a short time, Arcing Slice could deal 10 stacks for a long time, and maybe the sword auto attack could deal 2 stacks on Gash for a moderate amount of time, instead of the 2 stacks of bleed that it has now, just to give it slightly more variety.

Would be tricky to balance though, because if it stacks too easy then anybody you face effectively only has 3/4 of their total health to work with, and if it’s too hard to stack then it’s worthless, but, standing next to a warrior in melee should be a mistake rather than a joke in most situations.

Final thrust should apply 2 stacks of this per hit. It’s a sword chain and makes total sense because it was similar in gw1

tell him to add talon deathblade

Just give us a stance that is actually defensive like in GW1, defensive stance, shield stance, Etc. Something of that form exists in every mmo but this one. lulz

For those of you who played pvp in gw1 as a warrior, and had success in q-knocks or other forms of interruptions, what are your thoughts on guild wars 2 style interruptions?
In wvw I can understand skill lag/initiation and cast times, but I feel more than ever that interrupts are more luck than skill. Even if you have great reflexes, they’d have to be some of the best to hit constant interrupts on enemies. I know there’s also no skill timer on your end if they’re casting skills, quite contrary to gw1. However, I feel that there should be more ways to interrupt an opponent or even punish them for being interrupted.

I enjoyed the skill distracting strikes in gw1, as it was a very quick interrupt that did no damage but made the skill on your opponent’s end completely useless for a duration. I also enjoyed the q-knock function in gw1. I won’t explain this for those of you who don’t know it, it’s kind of hard to explain. I encourage you to look it up though.

So in summary, what are your thoughts about interrupts in this game from a warrior’s perspective in coordination with skill lag and initiation time? Do you think a skilled player can rely on interrupts all the time like in gw1? Do you take my stance that interrupts are more luck than skill based most the time? Finally, if you have success in consistant interrupts, what tactics do you use to help you get interrupts all the time?

Xenerous.9752:

I am a warrior and I really like these three weapon combos:

-Axe and Axe
-Greatsword
-Hammer
-Longbow

I always want to keep the longbow as my secondary but I was wondering what each weapon is used for and what situations they are good for such as PvP and PvE. I also want to know your opinion on the “best” weapon and your favorite.

Thanks for all answers

spvp or wvw? Two distinctly different areas. In wvw don’t use GS or axe axe. Both choices are bad and you should migrate away from those 2 weapon choices. Longbow is a creative way to switch it up and do some condition damage. It’s alright for hard burst but your 3 is your main skill for that. Hammer is the best solo roam tool in the world. Axe, shield is a good combo in wvw solo as well, but it doesn’t have much control just a lot of sustain dps.

PVE GS, AXE AXE, bow are great. Do some build research and you’ll find some easy pz pve builds with those weapons.

Would love to duel you

Furajir.3815:

Probably wasn’t the best to show a video of you abusing environment while trying to get the attention of the devs. Just sayin.

I call them leap spots. You can do them on almost any class that has a leap. The spot I leaped on is doable with guard, ranger, engie, maybe even ele too. All of those have been tested and verfied. It’s nothing new and I would encourage them for any warrior because they should be used as escape routs. It always leaves them breathless as you runaway in your getaway boots with loads of imaginary gold in your pockets from the server bank.

Are you saying that mesmer porting golems up a cliff is environment abuse? So in that case, all fights, solo, or zerg should take place on completely flat land? That sounds pretty boring don’t you think? where’s the dynamics then….

Artaz.3819:

To the OP, your opponents didn’t move while you approached with Shield Block and blew their big cooldown damage abilities for some reason during your use of it. Neither apparently knew what an Elite was and only the mesmer knew what a stun break was but actually didn’t kite back to the friendly guards which were only another 300 range further away at the camp…

For that reason I respect him. At the same time I humiliated him. You can’t not boast about a glass riffle warrior who carries his high mighty legendary and tries to kill you with his mesmer buddy, only to find that plan backfire in his face and then is forced to watch as I tear the legs off his friend. It’s been stated and is obvious in observation that they were both bad players. It’s simply cool because for one reason or the other I got out alive when I shouldn’t have.

Jonwar.9205:

I’m trying to introduce the sword board and hammer combo. There’s so many annoying GS videos i’m sick of it. So compared to those players I am a demigod. I think you’ll be happy to hear that there’s more boasting to come.

That weapon combination is nothing new. I’ve been running it since I bought the game, and so have many many others. I don’t claim to have invented anything and neither should you. I believe the first person to run it successfully was Golradaer.

Secondly, I agree that this is not 2v1, it is 1v1.

I never said I invented squat. I’ve implied that for some reason 90% of the population has resulted on the GS. I’m glad you use it. That’s one less garbage warrior I have to worry about. I’m trying to do something different in wvw. Last good pvp video of wvw solo roaming warrior I saw was matale. I greatly enjoyed his playstyle but noticed a lack in others following it. I see too much GS. Hopefully I’ll see more non AXE/GS builds some time soon. Call it what you want but there were 2 opponents on my tail and I dispatched them both. That feels good in any situation.

robocafaz.9017:

All your friends are playing TF2. Why don’t you join them?

lawl. That supposed to be a troll remark? I play it from time to time but I don’t enjoy it anymore. The game is long dead for competitive play anyway. I only make edits from time to time now.

lol… Thanks for the post, I just skimmed through it and laughed at the majority of what I read. Not every issue is L2P though. There are many areas where warrior needs drastic improvement. L2p is a big issue for many warriors and it starts by not using Greatsword lol. Only then do you start paying attention to skill chains from other classes and what kills you most.

Psybunny.8906:

Not impressed at all. Is this the “sick” skill level of wvwvw players?
Your other video was nicer, although the thief was quite bad, I liked the HS interrupt you did in the beginning there.

I think instead of kitten ing people off with ego stroking you should keep your videos in one thread or a link your channel in signature. I haven’t seen any “sick filth” so far and nothing that actually deserves posting/making videos off.

Cheers mate. I’ll keep those suggestions noted. A lot of players are bad. If I uploaded nothing but good 1v1 duels I’d have no footage. I take what I can get and welcome anything that beats me. I enjoy it because that’s how I learn to counter. Always those people in the corner that shun something that actually has relevance. Stop being so picky.

If you enjoyed those so much, stay tuned for my next full on greatsword berserker video. This time I’ll eleminate all redundancy by using bull’s charge AFTER they’re already aware of my presense. After that I’ll do something noone has done before and chain a sick 12k burst combo on their knocked down model. Yeah, I’m sure if you look up gw2 warrior wvw, you’ll never see a million Greatsword videos. /sarcasm.

Lol. I didn’t know this place existed. Oh well, here you go, my solo roam build is in one of these and it wrecks 90% of the people I face. https://www.youtube.com/user/alphabetEF
Warr is underpowered in a lot of areas, but hammer isn’t one.

Track.5029:

well, why wouldnt i make a forum post? oO i clearly need help deciding what i should pick since i have lots of doubts, i have actually no idea which of them i should go for..

post something relevant instead. this is something that doesn’t regard class balance or skill play.

Ehh. Nothing beats the way they designed templar in aion. They had a skill called doom lure.

That’s what I want for a warrior.

TheGreatA.4192:

While this wasn’t an all-out 1on2 situation, I do think warri has decent 1vX potential when used right.

Basically you just need to focus and burst down one person in quick fashion with stunlocks, stability, endure pain, then outplay the other person even with many of your skills on CD (or kite until you get a heal off).

I’m not the greatest warrior player by any means, but I’ve had many situations where I’ve been chased by the enemy, only to turn the tables by basically one shotting the other person with a quick eviscerate/hammer chain, then grinding down the other person.

2nd paragraph pretty much explains the tactic we all rely on lol. you got it.

I wanna duel you

Track.5029:

yeah, i won’t delete any of them, i just want 1 i can stick to, and spend all my laurels on..
its a tough decision tho, thats why i need a lot of suggestions and opinions :P

Humans have the cleanest weapon and skill animations of any class. They don’t look dumb when they run. Their animations aren’t clunky, and their char model is perfect for jump puzzles.

Also are you serriously making a forum post about this lol
Another thing: You’ve never seen a movie about a charr warrior but thousands made about some warrior gladiator. If you’re into role play lol.

The funny part is the trait that reduces the CD by 20% is a grandmaster trait. what a joke to spec into that for a 36 sec bull’s charge.

klutch.5921:

BlueprintLFE obviously is mad and or jelly. Don’t be such a baby and get that blueprint out on how to not be so bad.

Lolwat.

Who are you? You know nothing about me.. I have a LOT of tourny play on my warrior.

Anyways, I’m not one to bash people recording and putting out YouTube vids to help the community or showcase good fights and/or new builds or weapon combos, but when you come in here stating that you are hot kitten wrecking in a “sick 2v1 with a Mesmer” in a 1v1 (not a 2v1) that doesn’t even swap weapons, and then argue with people that disagree, that’s when I call Bull kitten.

I’m trying to provide feedback to the OP saying that chain cc’ing people is not fun to watch, it’s boring.

First off, I never asked for feedback. I asked for people to please watch. It is a sick 2v1 because it should have gone south but I outplayed them. I find spvp very boring and it isn’t my style. I’m not too familiar with the boards but last I read, high end spvp teams never use a warrior because there’s too much redundancy in skill play compared to a guard. They just don’t play exceptionally. Correct me if I’m wrong. Again I don’t keep track of spvp. If you’ve got so many hours, let’s see how “hot kitten” you are. Seems like you sure enjoy kittens lulz.

I said it in my first reply, but in case it hasn’t become apparent, then i’ll state it again. How many times have you been killed in a 1vx and the players have the nerve to taunt on your corpse like they just won a gold medal? Too many to count for me. I found it hilarious that I smashed them both and it just goes to show how zerg mentality affects people. No stun breakers, glass, and they tried to cut me off near their own camp. Pretty pathetic if you ask me.

I mean this respectfully and enjoy boasting about my battles. I’m making a slightly underdog class triumph and enjoy making it work. Mes, thief, even guard and ranger have no trouble keeping up in a 2v1, but warrior has a hard time for many reasons which have been outlined in probably hundreds of posts by now. But, if that isn’t enough compared to your “LOT of tourny,” then I can totally understand. After all, I’m always looking for guidance from underground professional warriors who have unlocked all the secrets that they don’t even boast themselves about their own battles.
May Prince Rurik’s charismatic speech guide your tongue in your next rebuttal against my underlining statements.

BlueprintLFE.2358:

This is what drives me nuts. I love the hammer, but honestly it takes ZERO skill to do the chain cc combo. It’s lame gameplay, and boring to watch.

The only time I enjoy watching hammer fights is when it’s a small scale battle, or the player uses the hammer cc’s at good timings not mindlessly smashing buttons.

Oh and your ego needs to take a rest. That Mesmer was TERRIBLE. He never even swapped weapons from greatsword. he literally sat with the greatsword auto attack on.

No offense mate, but don’t go ego stroking and arguing because these noobs don’t know how to use stability or stun breakers.

Woah, someone’s sour. Bro stop talking about yourself. If you’re the mes in the video just say so I understand how you feel. If you want me to go easy on you just say so! Cheer up there sport.

I’d like to say that interruptions are what I go for if that’s what you mean by “good timings,” however with skill latency and the server status in wvw, it’s simply not possible. You can predict an interruption, but relying on them isn’t enough. I don’t know how using ES there wasn’t good? As he used his teleport, I leaped at him with an ES, when he didn’t expect it.

So are you telling me that you want me to go run around specifically targeting interrupts and just letting them live, never going in for a spike? Sounds more boring than getting some frags.

Obviously the players weren’t that good. See the humor comes from experience. I’m sure everyone here can account for it. How many times have you tried to run solo, but there’s always those 2, or group of 5 trying to get a pick on some poor solo roamer. Individually they are terrible players, but collectively they are effective. It’s funny because this is a scenario where that experience takes a twist on their end. Moral of the story is that they got destroyed. Why not boast about it? They could have easily killed me, but they didn’t. You can see evidence of this in the player rankings. Go around solo in wvw and try to find a high ranking player with champion, major, or legend and see if they solo you. Chances are they’ll try to kite you into a situation where they have an advantage because they can’t take an even fight.

Someone needs to sit on the think tank for a while. Maybe you won’t be so hostile.

It wasn’t a bad clip, but not what I expected. When I read the title I expected to see something similar to what’s shown in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tI7ouz1xt9E

Get outa here wich yo evasive ranger. I’m getting jelly of your evades
Good luck doing something like that with a warrior. You’ll get imobed to death before you start doing damage. Your best bet for a 3v1 is kiting them around walls and LOSing the heck out of them, just spamming ES. Even then you’re so susceptible to damage.

I main a Warrior, so know full well how difficult 1vXs are. I linked that video because it highlights the difference between Warrior sustain & Ranger sustain.

Also, that isn’t me in the video!

The original uploader himself showed me it some time ago. If he gets immobilized he’s done, that’s kind of the weakness with it. He has a lot of regen, but rangers in general lack imobilize removal and stun lock counters. I watch for those 2 main things every time I face a ranger. Evades are nice though, wish I had some of those XD

Epic.3950:

nice. Im trying out a similar build but im rolling knights armor and cav accessories. Not sure I like the lyssa spike just due to the nature of having such a small window to deal some crazy damage. Might roll melandru runes since I have the precision from knights already. Love the sword and board tho

I never had luck with knights. I’d rather have a full set of valks than knights. Lyssa isn’t just for the spike. It’s a plus if anything but the main reason is for the 7s protection after I despell every buff they throw on me. You’d be surprised how useful it is when you get that off on a necro. Smack them pretty hard for 7s and take little damage in return. It also helps maintain perma fury/swiftness.

Many elements went into play on this one, mainly terrain play like usual. Still, some of you wanted to see me vs a mes. Even though he isn’t that great, he got the drop on me major. I still managed to outplay him. HD+full please.

Great job man! Looking forward to running with you again hopefully later.

After I get out of work, be home in like 10 hours XD. cya then.

Loading.4503:

Maybe it’s just me, but when someone says 2 vs 1 I would assume 2 people jumping on you at once, but like I mentioned, I saw u go against 1 guy then the other guy afterwards, I’m not trying to get at you about your skill level or anything like that, I guess it’s just my interpretation for a 2 vs 1, hope I didn’t sound offensive in anyway

In that situation, a warrior will only win in few circum stances, such as you hit 2 glass thieves with an ES and manage to keep them cc’d till they are both downed. Good luck doing that on anything else that has gear and teeth. It’s slightly offensive in a way unless you show me up with a better clip.

AlBundy.7851:

ok just checking

What I thought. Muahh

Loading.4503:

I wouldn’t call that. 2vs 1 , more of a 1 vs 1 while the other runs around for another 1 vs 1

If that isn’t a great example of a 2v1, idk what is. I played terrain well. I went in when I know I had an advantage on atleast one, and observed the mistake of the mesmer. The path I took demonstrates I planned something like that out and hoped for it to happen. You couldn’t ask for a cleaner 2v1 fight. I was nearly at half hp by the time I started on the mes btw.

You’ve posted on my forum posts before. You tell me.

I honestly couldn’t tell since you posted those vids or that vid didn’t check if they were different but there’s like multiple threads of your same vid up I think. You acted kind of high and mighty about bursting down those wvw scrubs in your glass hammer gear so I guess I’m leaning 60/40 that your not trolling and you actually think 100b is strong.

lawl. Obviously you never bothered to click the links. 2 separate videos. Rule number 1 is that glass is downfall. I can see now what you lack to come to that assumption. Yes I’m trolling. Had to make me spell it out.

Rule number 2 is that I am high and mighty. Come at me

I play thief and 100b is so strong that I think warriors should get a weakness nurf. You guys are in denial.

Can’t tell if trolling or not.

I fail to see the difference… do you cut your food with a sledgehammer? They are different weapons with different purposes.

well sledgehammer is more destructive to limbs with the same force if you used a knife. Just ask the people who go fetal position after I hit them with an Earth shaker.

Jonwar.9205:

That’s like apples>oranges…

More like sledgehammer>steak knife.

Aye it’s no longer a usable strategy. People couldn’t understand how to dodge the most predictable move we had or how to equip any stun breakers, so the only real way we could beat our enemy into the ground before they could retaliate was taken away, now look where we are….

They didn’t nerf quickness from 100b. Was mostly for hammer warriors destroying people who don’t slot a stun breaker/stability or because of other classes using quickness to bursts more effectively like thieves.

Mostly for hammer warriors destroying people
Hammer warriors destroying
Hammer destroying
Hammer>GS!

May I have a link to this vid?

Also, are you serrious? I play thief and 100b is so strong that I think warriors should get a weakness nurf. You guys are in denial.

bump bump bump it up

Unfortunately, the problem here is not Mobile Strikes, but the ridiculous way Entangle works.

If you notice, you used your movement skill right when Entangle refreshes. That means Mobile Strikes doesn’t take effect and you become re-immobilized since Mobile Strikes doesn’t prevent one from being immobilized. Ultimately when Entangled you have to watch the timmer closely and use your movement skill right after it refreshes to work (while you are still considered immobilized), yes it’s dumb and hard to do in most situations.

Another thing I am trying to figure out, is if using dogged march or other condition duration reducers actually causes Entangle to refresh faster, thus making it hard to use our movement skills appropriately. Theoretically, Entangle is suppose to last ~1.5sec and reapply every second so if you can cut it down by 33-50% you should be able to just walk out of there. Your video actually does make it appear that it refreshes faster.

That last part about not using skills after you fail a Mobile Strikes or dodge or jump, yeah that is a huge bug.

I see what you’re saying. I didn’t think of that. I’m fine with the reapplication, but wow that skill lock is so bad. it’s been so annoying recently because i’ve been getting this a lot…

loseridoit.2756:

Hmm interesting. This problem can easily be fixed my increasing the duration of the immobilization but decreasing the frequency of the application of it.

Mobile strikes appears to be working but the reapplication of it cause you to be stuck.

The bug happens when you’re immobilized in mid air. This goes for jumping or any other leap skill. It’s easy to do too. hit it right at the peak of your savage leap for example, and bam. He’s done. can’t cast skills or pop any stances, or even attack. This is because they went with the grand idea that you can’t use actions while in air. Honestly that idea is rubbish. I don’t understand why you can’t jump and pop a stance, say to save from getting knocked down. Jump and use a shout to remove a condition falls into the same logic.

This is a bug in general that should be fixed for every leap skill, of all classes. I’ve submitted at least 3 bug reports on this and it continues to plague me. When one gets immobilized in mid air, it creates a loop. Your character is stuck in mid air and because of this is not allowed to cast any skills, even ones that would cure immobilize. Part of my build revolves around Mobile Strikes.

A trait that removes immobilize on a leap skill. I clearly use it in this clip. After it fails to work the first time, it cannot even register the second time because I’m not allowed to use it. I cannot explain how frustrating this is and it’s been a bug for a very long time.

Move it to your suggestions box, but I beg you to please take a look at this.

Nice video m8! Can be a good reference play with hammer in wvw.

Thanks I wanted to include as many scenarios as I could in the short time I played for those to learn how I use it. The last 10 minutes are the best parts though. Those are pretty much the highlights.
