Guild Wars 2

25% movespeed on any profession that can have it just seems mandatory because everyone else runs it, and if you don’t you’re going to get left behind and hunted down.

Pit fighter chest might work.

I’ve been playing since release and only have 4 friends and no guild.

I… I don’t even like being alone

I’d team up if you’re ever lonely ^.^

Open world pve tends to be empty, with the exception of Queensdale and occasionally Orr when people do temple runs. Most people stick to WvW and run through CoF1 when they need money at this point.

Make guards medium health, make engies low health high armor, and introduce Dervish.

We can dream, right?

You guys need to calm down.

While PvE players are giving reasonable answers, the ‘omgsopro’ PvP players are just insulting people and flaming. You people are the ones who say ‘lol who cares’ when some newbie excitedly proclaims he hit 80 on his first toon or has to one-up people every time they mention some achievement. I’m not giving my stance on the argument, but I will say I actively play WvW AND PvE. The name-calling is completely unnecessary and irrelevant.

I love that this jumping puzzle is getting attention, and its great to fight there.
But having a cache required for 2 achievements is stupid. Moving the cache to the front of the puzzle would still alert people it was there without forcing PvE players to PvP. Better yet, just add another cache somewhere in PvE that gives you the second achievement aswell and keep the WvW cache up there for us who like the challenge.

It’s just that blasted pull on those golems. That’s what makes it too frustrating.

There’s a good way to counter that: stability. Skills that can revive from a distance are also extremely useful here.

Unfortunately, not all of us have classes abundant in stability.

I love the hard mechanics of the dungeon. But the golem pull is just ridiculous and unfair. Chain pulled into a laser and being stunned for 5 seconds because of the camera angles and buggy agro system isn’t a mechanic. Having to base a dungeon around a mechanic that not all of us have is just flat out bad design.

People really cant handle a little challenge anymore. All they want is to walk trought a dungeon looking at rainbows and kittens and then collecting wild amounts of loot for free. Grow up and try to use your brain on content where you acctualy need to move your mouse.

Lol.
Having half my damage die at the start of the boss, and if it doesn’t die I actually get punished for keeping my pet alive, timing every dodge and roll perfectly and not getting hit by a single laser unless I was chain pulled, I still couldn’t complete it. If a golem decides to pull you, you’re pretty much dead. Half the time I can’t see it pulling me because I’m so busy running in circles. The entire boss was a gimmicky fight. Stuns and instakills is so original, guise. I like hard dungeons, hard is fun. But theres a difference between a hard boss and a ridiculously broken one.

Its alright, they die by the first stage.
Whoop, there goes half my damage!

In a game that relies around dodging, having a class that can’t dodge is a joke. No matter how well you time and micro, AoE will wreck your pets regardless.

Oh no ANet, I just looove this boss.
I love timing every dodge and jump perfectly yet repeatedly failing because the glitchy semi-invisible golem pull chains and walls that kill you. I especially love when I take damage before the animation gets to me. I find it fantastic that the golems have a 90% shield uptime with no cooldown because of the ridiculous amount of lasers. And you know what, ANet? Next time we should just disable dungeons when you are playing a Ranger.

I love you guys, I really do. This is my favorite game I’ve ever played. But the content is getting worse and worse and more and more gimmicky. The entire dungeon is a quick and easy run through that is way too short, then a ridiculously broken boss with nothing but stuns and one hit kos.

I would agree if this was the beginning of the event. However halfway through this would be a slap in the face to us who opened 5,000 (!) coffers for our tickets.
I just hope after the Aetherblade event RNG boxes stop being a thing.

You try and play other games that don’t have strafe and quit from frustration

I want the Aion ninja animations for purchase in the gym store. I’d pay anything for that.

Nice calculations but still can LB>SB..Beyond the calculations theres the real combat that has to many varietys.Calculations and numbers can be helpfull but again in real combat lets say an enemy comes at you with a gap closer skill that you can interupt,he reaches you and makes an small aoe around him even tho you interupt his first attack with SB 5 and move away with SB 3..Well you are downed and you lose a lot of dps….If you had a LB equiped you could push him away with LB 4 and not die which means you will do more dmg in the end of the fight….
The example is not accurate i just want to explain that the dmg in the end of the day is what matters,not the dmg on a dummy..

The thing is, with SB you can interrupt him with 5, get back and flank with swiftness with 3, then cripple him and have your pet stack bleed faster. With LB ranger you knock him back and hope he doesn’t have any gapclosers left. Also your DPS is significantly reduced on LB as well because if he is close enough to you you will lose damage.

This wouldn’t be so bad if we had a way to improve SB. Eagle Eye improves bow damage and range instead of harpoon?
Or we could just rename Ranger to Beastmaster and get an actual sniper class, then watch everyone reroll and this forum disappear.

Upon getting myself 2 jape weapon tickets and disliking pretty much every skin but the axe, I turned to my untouched warrior. Would axe/axe be a good weapon to PvE with? Will it hold up to other weapons? I’m only level 24 on my Warrior and haven’t touched a class besides Mesmer or Ranger in my life.

Tldr; if you disagree with the changes you’re a whiny brat?
We’re making an uproar because these changes are bad. If this isn’t a PvP split, rangers are done for. Its already hard to justify them in WvW and dungeons. You clearly don’t know why people went BM. Not because people loved being strong and bursty but because its the only viable build, which got nerfed. ANet forces us to play using our pet and have said they have no plans to change that. BM traits are easily the best traits out there, because if we don’t focus around our pets we suck.

This is why we need a PvP/PvE split. Pets got nerfed as hard as hell, with no buffs to our total dps. SB nerf was unnecessary and not compensated. Longbow buff is great, but it really only shines because its competition got nerfed. BM ranger was nowhere near op, if you can 3v1 I just wonder how stupid they are to ignore your pet (and entangle?) and take the damage, along with letting a ranger kill/stomp them somehow.
