Guild Wars 2

I prefer they cause 3 stacks of vul and steal some health on scepter 3 as well as the lf gain.

MidoriMarch.8067:

After the patch Necro + Ele are top tier in pvp/wvw.
•Have you went against an interrupt mesmer?

We can tank and we can hit like a truck.
•Not every necro runs power builds. And that “tank” can be interruped and stun locked for days.

Why do people complain so much and being greedy.
•It’s called constructive criticism, not complaining. Letting devs about suggestions to make the class better is not being greedy either.

Only thing I want is probably buff on axe and some of utility skill buffs.
•True but it’s probably low priority on that list of fixes.

Reveal buff? Lol why do we even need this to kill a thief? My power necro dominates 1v1 against thief most of the time even without reveal buff. Only problem is mesmer but it will be nerfed soon imo.

•Once more, not every necro runs power builds. And I think a reveal i’s kinda a good thing, seeing devs hung ho about giving Dragon hunter a reveal.

Got my Twilight skin ready.

I use perplexity a lot in WvW. It’s super potent vs fast attacking enemies (Warrior, Thief’s, Mesmers) but Krait runes do help with extra toughness for heavy condition dmg.

If they revamp the AI in Maguuma and not the AI pets/minions, feel free to unleash the rage upon Anet.

If they made the cast time the same as plague blast (underwater shroud #1) I’d be happier.

Make it in a 280° cone in front of you. That way you have your counter defense in front of you while teefs don’t get nerfed in the ground because they can’t stealth while a “wall hack” is active.

I have been trying to do exp mode on CoE for a few weeks now for legendary and I always get kicked for either not being experienced or not having zerker gear. Even when i post in LFG right before the group goes in they decide zerker only and boot anyone out without it. This is getting terrible and stuff like this makes me wonder how the devs think GW2 has a friendly atmosphere.

Get zerker gear. kicks 50% reduced. It’s not really expensive.

Problem with that is I don’t run zerk.

I always like to help the new players, especially in the lowered level dungeons.

Problem currently:
•Delusion of the zerker meta
•Auto kick because you aren’t level 80 in a (insert minimum level here) explore path
•Auto kick because you aren’t zerker
•This a really dumb reason, but it happens: Auto kick because you aren’t a certain AP threshold
•This is going to trend for a few weeks or more: No Revenant lfg groups

The sooner we squash that kitten group out, I think our inner community that actually “helps new and existing players” would be a lot better.

Last gasp syncs with spectral mastery, therefore you can trait it and get the benefits ie; longer SA along with shorter CD and life force gain.

+1 for an Elite signet.

I roam WvW with full rabid gear (amulets, rings, etc.) And absolutely murder things.

Been plague stomping since….ever.

Been main necro since early 2013. No number of “nerfs” will keep me away from this class. Is it bottom tier in terms of overall damage? Yes. Does it still need some work? Yes. Out of all the classes necro is my favorite.

ChoChoBo.6503:

Aren’t there 3 exits from each spawn? Isn’t the counter just to exit the one they’re not camping from?

Not really when they own a keep right outside of your spawn area.

I don’t remember if there was a counter to opposite servers from completely over running your keeps and now have your entire server is both outnumbered (during certain times) and backed all the way to the spawn WP. I’m an occasional solo roamer and nothing kittens me off more than WP in and seeing one server with all keeps, supply AND maxed out tiers and now got a 20+ man front blocking your only exit.

Still broken. Tried MM when the patch hit. Yup minions/pets still lack the proper programming to be considered for even “slightly decent”

Mea.5491:

As a female player, I do not find them “hot” but they are definitely very pretty and exotic.

Never though salads would look attractive.

Strike one: “Movement changes”
Chill and Immobile don’t apply, trolololo. GG future Reapers
Strike two: Chill being limited
Conspiracy theorist in me says they don’t want other classes locked down by chill forever, yet most classes (Warrior and Teef) already shrug the stuff off with a heal or movement skill. Chill yet again takes a backseat because chill. What chill?
Strike three: Dhuumfire
Enough said.
I like how Anet is thinking ahead in terms of class balance, but not looking at NOW where the current problems persist.

I’m rapidly losing interest in even trying the Rev class. To me it seems like a heavy armored Necromancer and not much else. I’m not a heavy lore guy, so excuse me when I say I have very little investment when it comes to the legends the class is supposed to have. I’d like some insight first if anyone is willing to give it.

Note: Please don’t start lambasting me with “Huuuuur, duuuuur If you no like, don’t play it.” I’d like to keep this thread civilized.

Never used chilling darkness, kinda wondering how it was before that Anet considered they HAD to put and ICD on it.

SkullProX.7083:

Does anet read forum posts? Because i cant believe a company would make such a huge mistake that even tho 90%of the players in the forums ask a harder gameplay, and more challenging content, and they still make the game easier…

It was when they introduced revamped Teq, people QQ’ed about it being too hard, they nerfed the hp a bit. They did….something to the dungeons in the same matter, people QQ’ed. Problem is Anet us probably too focused on the making the game “casual” and “content for everyone to enjoy.” Kinda worries me what’s this “CGC” they’re keeping in the dark.

Probably.

So this weeks announcement was that next week will be the WvW stress test, which means that next week there will be no new announcement cause….. stress test……

Just like with the beta week right?

:’-(

Maybe I should try FFXIV, this game has just been getting me down lately, it can’t be healthy.

That’s exactly what I did and I ended up logging into gw2 everyday anyway and only made it to lvl 34 in ff14

Oh, I log in everyday to GW2 as well, for one minute to get my daily chest, then I log out. So what do I have to lose?

Yeah, now I just log in, WvW daily a bit and I’m out. There really isn’t a need to stress over something we all know won’t be coming anytime soon and it’s really a headache to have to listen to “It’s coming soon™” so many times before it becomes a problem. I’ve been playing expansions of other games (Tera, FfXIV) in the mean time.

Unfortunately they barely know to a certain extent of what happened in LS season 1 and the latest version of LS season 2 is the last episode. If you want the full season, you have pay money for it. Couldn’t they just bundle in the LS season 2 at a discounted price with HOT? They’re already paying money for HOT and getting the base game free, why not throw in the LS with it?

Anet: Oh kitten, those conditions are to stronk.
Solution?
Double the HP (even thought it was fine as it was) and allow it to be crit (doesn’t seem to be working)
Really. Bad. Move. Anet.

We probably won’t hear about one for at least another three weeks.

I see it as getting around the map and hard to reach areas on said map. As far as other maps, I don’t think it will be a feature there. It kinda works like Aion in which certain areas let you fly around…on a limited amount of time of course.

I suggest waiting. In time it will be featured on sites such as Greemangaming, GoG and others that will have it at a discounted price if you don’t agree 50 bucks minimum is a reasonable price.

Even with axe training, it’s still kitten garbage. Good for LF but that’s about it.

Back in 2012: Necros are OP with conditions. dhuumfire rekt everyone and people are not happy.
devs nerfed necros into the ground
Early 2013-2014: Necros have no team support, blocks/reflects. Most pvp teams didn’t take necros because they usually got focused first plus engi dealt more condi dmg. They did suppar in PvE but excelled in WvW.
2015-Present: Necros finally have some kind of support with blood magic, excellent at dealing condi dmg while keeping them almost condi free Via death shroud. Weakness They are slow and susceptible to kiting at range. People QQ in the forums.

I can’t wait for the complaints about reaper.

It’s been a looong time coming since we were this good. For the love of Dwayna, Anet, do not dhuumfire us to where we were two and a half years ago!

Necro jesus at work

And somehow fall UNDER the map.

Aw, I was kind of kind of hoping that would go to rings and trinkets as well. Oh well, my Rabid set is almost complete!

They both have the same self restrictive polices, which means Anet can’t respond to their own criticism outside of “we’re listening”

If I remember toughness is going to be baseline for all, but it will be more dependant on the gear you wear. I’ve already invested into Ascended Dire gear (Precision, toughness, condition damage) so I’m set.

Like the article said, judge with your wallets. Why no one has come up front and said “hey, we screwed up” is beyond me. But yeah, I’m going to wait until we get a full detailed description of what we are getting for the minimum of $50. Unfortunately with Anet moving like they are, it’s going to be like pulling teeth to get info. Not really the best news you want before an expansion.

They have A LOT to go for charging $50 and not have the player base question that. I just bought the FFXIV expansion for $39.99 and I know just about EVERYTHING that’s going to be in it. GW2? Very little. What are we getting exactly for $50 is the question? New maps, how big ae they exactly? New class, the Revenant. Don’t know how it works yet. A “subclass” rework in the form of Elite Specializations, most we haven’t seen yet. A new WvW borderlands map, don’t know how it works. Guild Halls. That’s it. yay. Still no word on this “challenging content.” Did I miss something? I’m not going into whether which expack will deliver more, but jeez.

whoa…….I hope its worth the purchase….

Necro got totally curbstomped with this update. It’s like they think it is fun to watch us be the worst class in the game.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/%22Suffer!%22

ITS ALL MAKES SENSE NOW!

“Nothing can save you!”
“You are all weaklings!”

It all makes so much sense now. :P

Funny, they had that ready months in advance.
FREAKIN GG ANET

Necro. Punished for using elites and the most powerful condi clense heal ICD was increased as well as thrown a random condition on it because reasons. When we say necro needed something, we didn’t mean more nerfs.

“Necromancers are in a good spot”

I’m kinda bent on the whole issue. I like how Staff got a major buff, Focus skills are now baseline, which is good as well. Axe still sucks for some reason. I think everyone’s issue is how Lich form and Plague are taking a hit. Lich form…meh, I didn’t use it much, and it was pretty powerful even when it was at a 30sec duration especially with power builds. I do have an issue with Plague though. Pulsing bleeds. Really? In PvE I don’t see this as much of a problem, but PvP it’s punishing the player for using elites. And tell me why are we being punished for using a heal skill [Consume Conditions] that, you know, CLEARS CONDIOTIONS?!

I don’t remember if this was an active thing before the megaservers implementation, but wasn’t there monthly match ups between the servers. For example Blackgate vs Tarnished Coast vs A third server and randomized every month so it it’s Yak’s Bend vs Blackgate vs Stormbluff Isle for instance. Wasn’t that a thing or I going quaggan nuts here?

Im fine with a lengthy blog post on the changes.

I wouldnt mind having Footsteps in the shape of music notes, i actually at the time thought it had them. I wouldnt do an Aura. Maybe make the music notes a bit more noticeable

Maybe something like the bard auras in EQ2 ?

I wouldn’t mind a music note aura or something.

Basic story missions and activities. No Hearts.

This is just a suggestion to change your online status from online, busy, or afk. Something that displays above your head as well as displayed in the Guild Tab. The attachment is an example……

Yeah, I kind had the same reaction when I finished mine. I wasn’t expecting footfalls, but something to indicate “hey, this is a legendary weapon” music when you use the skills or something, currently it looks and feels like a glorified Exotic. Though I like the music notes that trail you when running is nice.
