Katsumoto pretty much said it all.

Niacin.4926:

People go there to get the badges/achievement, not to fight other people.

By the way. I go there to kill scrubs like you that end up crying on the forums.
Great source of badges for me!

So what do you need badges for, a legendary? So say you do actually need it for a legedary, and maybe even you want it for some of the gear/weapons you can buy.

Since scrubs like me go there, and you kill us for badges, how does this make you less of a scrub? Can’t you go you into the world and actually help the team out, since you are so damn pro.

And, btw, this IS a cry post, I just don’t understand why I get killed in WvW zones?!

Fixed

Niacin.4926:

So, Jumping puzzles. I, for one, hate pvp. And I’m no big fan on the jumping puzzles, but I think they are ok. Therefor doing a pvp jumping puzzle is no ideal situation for me.

I need to do the jumping puzzles in the Borderlands and EB to get enough Badges for my legendary. I know it’s pvp but still, why do people insist to kill other people in the jumping puzzles? Especially in the EB JP. 2/3 times I try to do the JP in EB there are always 2+ people there killing other people. This drived me mad.

I get it, it’s wvw, pvp, but it’s in a closed off area with no connection to the rest of the wvw map. People go there to get the badges/achievement, not to fight other people.

I can see that some people are so bad in pvp/wvw that their only way of getting the monthly is to go and kill people in the JP’s who’s intention so to jump. Don’t even get me started on the PvE monthly where you need to do PvP to get, there is already a PvP monthly. Enough about that.

Can’t people do like me, and keep the kitten away from other people in the JP’s, no matter if it’s in the borderlands or EB.

This is not ment to be an angry post just trying to get an explanation.

Cheers!

Nope, I mess with whatever enemy is in the JP because that is the point of it. It isn’t there for you to easily get to.

Nuh uh GoM, you ain’t gettin’ this tower. And neither are you NSP. Your field rams will not break out spirit. This is [ALS] tower. Not yours.

ummm ok? lol good post

Which game sent information about 100 other players to all other players ten years ago?

Dark Age of Camelot, to name only one … make it 200-300 players in the early zerg days

To be fair a lot of those early relic runs were slideshows. A lot of fun though.

LoL… This made my day.. haha I’m picturing that now..

jaegerx.1693:

Wasn’t 1 shot, it was 3 and 1 of them is on a cooldown of 45 seconds. Can’t d/d ele’s aoe for 4k on 5 people? That’s 20k dmg.

All about perspective people, that thief can only hit you. Your d/d ele can hit 5. So what do you want to play?

Actually I have seen aoe up as high as 9k from AOE

Setsunayaki.4907:

LIGHT OR HEAVY, I do not care

Any skill that hits an Elementalist in one shot for over 13,000 damage when the player is at full toughness/vitality/power build is overpowered. 10,805 Health is the base an Elementalist gets and so you are telling the world that if the Elementalist was playing a Glass Cannon Build, he would sustain what….15 – 18K damage in one hit?

Sorry, that is overpowered as hell.

I can understand if the elementalist was a glass cannon build being killed in one shot, but this is a full defense/tank build. I don’t care if its light armor, that is a poor excuse.

BTW, you may want to concern yourself on classes that can hit WAY harder than thief. I can think of a few. Warrior being one of them. There rifles can hit over 30k and secondly, 100blades. Enough said.. lol

Thief is the last thing I’m worried about

Proof eh? lol

Also learn when to dodge. The is on base survivability stats. HP is low and has no toughness.

Not hard to counter at all.

dreztina.4820:

Maturity, integrity, honor. I’ve been watching you ‘for the realm’ zergers pat yourselves on the back for about 10 years now, and it never ceases to amuse me.

You are awful players who get destroyed any time you don’t have a massive numerical advantage, unless of course you’re fighting other awful zergers. There’s no honor in what you do. You aren’t some great general fighting to save his lands. You’re just a bad who happens to be a little more into the roleplaying aspect of MMORPGs than most.

If I end up in a situation where your numbers are able to overcome my skill, then I have absolutely no problem using my last recourse to deny you a kill that you most certainly don’t deserve. If that’s a problem, where’s the statement from Anet saying they consider it an exploit and want it to stop? As far as I know, Anet has never said a word about their stance on it.

So you are trying to say that ALT F4 was put in the game so you can deny people kills? LOLL OLOLOLOLOL

Then you are playing the wrong game.

Xyre.5429:

Yawn…another week of fending off DB and NSP. All too often I see NSP ignore DB completely and work with them on DH…its almost like NSP isnt even trying for second, but would rather play the kingmaker? I would say DB and DH are fairly even at this point in a straight up server v server fight. NSP must have some deep seeded grudges against DH from spankings in the past

This really makes me giggle…

These threads are good for nothing. They all lead to the same thing. Complaining, blaming and crying. This one just so happens to be a pissing contest between DB and DH everyweek.

Prosecutor.1457:

I would like to inform the thief from NSP in the EB JP who killed the lvl 12 mesmer. Look at your Borderland now.

Sincerely,

The lvl 12 Mesmer.

You sound mad..

LoL DB and DH are just going at it with each other in this thread /popcorn. Well I should say.. just 2 or 3 people from there server. Because no one else really cares.

I love the fact that a PvP based game is catering to PvE players… fun fun

nah, I dont want this.. but I would love to see player names.

Our guild has taken the problem by the horns.

Before members join we make sure they are cool with our rules, one of them being “You cannot multi-guild”

This has created a HUGE bond for our guild. We all run groups constantly and we are all in WvW together.

We also have 40+ active “representing” members on prime time having a good time and a great community within guild

Only reason I like this bracket is because of Rethesis…. Other than that its pretty boring

BTW, last night’s clutch save by us (DB) at Hills on our borderland was great fun. They had the lord down but couldn’t quite cap before our reinforcements arrived. They (DH?) took down the outer wall and inner wall quickly with 3 catas before we could get help on the scene.

Um… No.

Thank you NSP for pushing in behind DH from the camp, you saved our hills and are clearly double teaming with DH, despite the fact you just rolled in behind them and helped wipe them.

We are so double teaming.

Ah even better. Didn’t see NSP there at all. Anyways I thought it was a great battle. It’s so much fun to run across the map, get there just in time to try and help make a difference.

Maybe it was a different battle. Was funny as hell though last night, we bunkered down at the southern camp and pissed everyone off for a while!

XD then we took hills after DH weakened it and we wiped them out of there.

Now that is how you double team.

I thought OS guild was DH? aren’t you from DH? cause i recall you being the guy crying after we scared your zerg off NW cliff at hills lol

Nope, OS and Os to Totally different guilds.

We have been on NSP since launch

This is kind of sad…. I’m sorry but a terrible and shameful way or recruiting.

Bug report in game… Thanks

fellyn.5083:

Complaints about double teaming are getting tiring. It’s not intentional and there is no conspiracy. It happens to every single server at one point or another. Learn to deal with it or don’t play.

No one thinks it is a conspiracy. It’s just happening. Last night DB took Veloka and were smacked down by both NSP and DH zergs on both sides. Neither were fighting. It was rather funny. I was standing in the middle with a couple other people laughing. We scare you guys this much?

LoL, Don’t flatter yourself.

Thank you!

Junkpile.7439:

You get tittle when you kill 100 players or was it 1k.

Not even close… lol its over 100k players i’m pretty sure

Please make your way on over to NSP!

Outplayed? lol we wiped you in lords room so many times already tonight…..

There was plenty of times you guys could have killed him. Secondly, its funny how long you guys stayed there. 1 guy tied up that many of you. I would have sent your force elsewhere

Evil Kinevil.5126:

Coolmoos.8546:

What are you worried about? Your guys point gain is so big over night and ours never gets over 400 during the day with SF pushing at the same time. You guys will have 1st place this week.

What was that about never getting over 400?

Ummmm look at my Sig please lol. I am from NSP. So my statement still holds true.

ah.. yes :P Well as you can see.. haha

I just want to know which profession except thief can pop out that damage in that time without the use of quickness.
Sorry guys, but backstab feel ridiculous to me. All high damage skills are channeled, have massive casting time or easy to evade.
Backstab deal at least 4k damage and a maximum of 10k, is almost instant and give the victim no clue when the backstab will come..
I don’t care that you have low health and you are squishy and blah blah blah. You have stealth to compensate which is the most powerful defensive mechanic in the game.

Exactly, I have faced many opponents that had no issues with me. I have been one shot by warriors the most.

All classes have there uses. But I have already started prepping my next build Just in case the nerf makes my current one pointless.

No it’s not. You can still be hit in stealth.

SKuDDer.1860:

It all comes down to avoiding that initial burst with skilled play or finding a way to recover, just like you are forced to do against other class’s burst specs.

I have yet to see any examples of how people are suppose to avoid this burst. Randomly dodge roll all the time, seems feasible.

I agree… for someone to guess when someone will Steal, Cloak and dagger, sig and stab would be hard to predict lol. It literally all happens within 1 second.

Both the targets with the screenshots I have provided are hitting a level 80 PRE NERF. I know only one SS shows the 80 laying down.. But regardless I know what i’m looking from and dont waste my time taking screenshots of hitting lower level people.

Even after the nerf as I said I still hit for 15-17.5k

If you have questions about my build I would be more than happy to chat with you in IM.

Thanks

I’m pure glass cannon, yes…

And this was pre nerf.

BUT, I have other screen shots at home “i’m currently at work” of my hitting for 16-17k after nerf.

I still use Assassin signet… but as you can see from my hp…. Full Exotics including jewelery. I am pure glass cannon , I have no HP.

Its very easy to counter me, if you know how to do so.

Rehk.6574:

IDK what these thieves are doing to hit you people for 18k+ dmg. I’ve never seen a backstab anywhere near that and I use Runes of the Thief, Berserkers Amulet, and 30 pts down both power and precision trees.

My backstabs hit for about 5k.

If backstab gets nerfed because a select few people have screen shots of being hit for 18k dmg its gonna screw over the many thieves who run “normal” builds like me into complete uselessness.

Someone SHOW me how your hitting for 18k on a backstab. I want to see exactly what armor , buffs, etc you AND your target are using…cause 18k sounds a bit ridiculous to me after the Signet nerf. (Before the signet nerf, ya maybe….every 1 min or so….but now….i just dont see how)

Alot have taken their build from this guy….

Keep in mind.. the pictures I showed were level 80s that obviously weren’t wearing Vit/Tough gear.. So they get hit even harder than in the video.

Mine was already VERY close to this, but then I adjusted a few things This is in SPVP

STRanger.5120:

Coolmoos.8546:

I DO know… because you can see if they are 80 or not.. and the FOE I was killing had no arrow up next to his level. So Thank you for your constructive post.

Proof?
Nice orb buffs BTW

For the third time: THIS game is not (shouldn´t be) balanced around WvW, get used to it guys….
If you want another WoW, go play the actual one. Thank you very much.

LoL, you act as if I control the orb buff…

STRanger.5120:

Coolmoos.8546:

Actually is it possible.. here is my thief.. and this was on a level 80 btw

I waited for this
And your foe was? You don´t know? It might be a lvl 1 newbie who accidently clicked “b” and didn´t even had a clue what he´s doing……
Show me this kind of damage by backstab in tPvP, and then I will believe you… (post-signet-change of course).

Btw, I know it was a level 80 because there was no arrow next to his level. Whether he had gear or not is not my problem. But I aim for 80’s when I pvp…

Thanks for your concern though

Here, is another lvl 80 foe with a backstab over 18k.

I’m just saying we have burst. And It can be adjusted without hurting the class.

I dont know why that posted 3 timeslike that….

SKuDDer.1860:

thanks coolmoos, that pretty much sums up what the damage would be on someone who doesn’t spec toughness.

Exactly.. And I have always argued the fact that its not our fault “thieves” that they don’t use toughness gear.

Exactly.. And I have always argued the fact that its not our fault “thieves” that they don’t use toughness gear.The way I see it, if you don’t spec into vit/tough you should and will get hit like this. I don’t think its broken at all.

Exactly.. And I have always argued the fact that its not our fault “thieves” that they don’t use toughness gear.The way I see it, if you don’t spec into vit/tough you should and will get hit like this. I don’t think its broken at all.

As you can see above I didnt even steal on that… It would have been well over 30k dmg in less than a second if I had used Steal “mug”

I knew this nerf was coming so I already started getting gear for my new build :P

Just gotta adapt you guys I think even after the nerf this build will still be viable, you are just going to have to use it in another way.

STRanger.5120:

EasymodeX.4062:

The highest I was hit for prior to the Signet change was 18.5k with Backstab.

30k+ damage combo that lands within 0.3 seconds at 900 range.

The important parts: “Prior to signet change” and that 30K+ made-up non-sense number (you cannot meant that seriously, right?).

I admit that backstabs I encountered is not the highest ones achievable, but still, nobody can hit you that hard in sPvP because of orb absence and easier to get awareness (fewer players).

Again, this game is not based on WvW if Anet wants it to be played competitively like an e-sport, therefore the balance doesn´t depends on some Orb-buffed glass cannon kills which are not viable in competition…

Actually is it possible.. here is my thief.. and this was on a level 80 btw

Oh joy…. can’t wait for this game to lose even more players… :/

This will not fix the people that jump ship at the end of the week.

BTW, Those are not bots…. Everyone is in a different guild. Secondly we enjoy putting groups together of the same class.

Niim.9260:

Cant speak for NSP, but if I know SF at all, they were down 20k and all up and quit for another week. Granted we cannot, nor have we ever, been able to compete on the nightcap front, so the match will leave us in the dust either way.
