Guild Wars 2

Its worth more doing 1 run of COF P1 then killing Tequatl.

You also have to consider that many people have up to 5 level 80s. It will not invalidate crafting.

Also note that if your server isn’t up to par for Tequatl, crafting will still be your main source for Ascended gear. It’s a win/win scenario. Elites will have exclusive skins, and the rest will have crafted ones.

I think 100% chance of getting a chest if you defeat him is very fair, because you have a random chance of that to get 17 different chests.

You mean eight (8) chances at an Ascended weapon, with no requirements of success being fair?

agree with the OP’s sentiment…..but his/her suggestions are way too high and would destroy the crafting system and economy of many mats.

i’d go with more like TheKillerAngel suggests, but change killing Teq to:

4 rares and 1 exotic guaranteed
6 exotic boxes
25% chance for an ascended weapon (of which you have a higher proportional chance for a Tequatl ascended weapon versus other stats)

OM…

NO IT WOULD NOT.

CRAFTING ISN’T RANDOM, YOU GET EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANT.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ascended_chest
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ascended_chest

25%-100% Chance to get ANY ONE OF THESE CHESTS.

DO YOU KNOW HOW LOW THAT IS?

It would make it REASONABLE.

Crafting Allows you to get exactly the item you want to craft. This would be a…
25% / 17.
50% / 17.
75% / 17.
100% / 17.

have always understood this………we’re just disagreeing on the semantics of “reasonable”.

if in the next two weeks, the event proves impossible for all but the largest servers (only two have done it once), then i may lean more to what you call “reasonable” for a 15-45 minute investment of time/money (versus the significantly more expensive and time-consuming, but certain, task of crafting ascended).

we will see.
the important thing is that the rewards are terrible currently, and the event will become a ghost-town after the achievements are earned if that isn’t fixed. nerfing the difficulty will not change that fact…..only an increase in rewards.

You also have to consider that many people have up to 5 level 80s. It will not invalidate crafting.

Smooth Penguin.5294:

This argument is basically another “easy mode” plea. To get four (4) shots at a random Ascended weapon, regardless of completing the event, is basically like asking Anet to provide free Legendaries for each character you own.

Here’s a tip for you: If you feel Tequatl isn’t worth your time, go kill the Shadow Behemoth. He has a new 15 minute timer too, but you can still kill him in under 3 minutes.

You don’t know what your talking about and have no idea what your saying. It is kind of rude to skim over posts without reading them.

100% / 17. 5% Chance…

You don’t get to pick which chests you get.

My numbers are reasonable if you look at statistics.
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ascended_chest

THERE ARE 17 DIFFERENT SETS…
25% chance = 1.7% chance of getting the chest you actually want.

Smooth Penguin.5294:

LOL! So for 15 minutes of content, you want four (4) chances at getting a random Ascended weapon? I don’t know if this is Entitlement, or just a troll post.

45 minutes for all 4 actually.

If it was 15 minutes, it would be 1 chance and a very small one at that.
25% divided by how many sets there are. It would be around 2.5%.

2.5% sounds VERY REASONABLE to me.

The chances sound high, however when you actually randomize that chance again, the chance of getting the stats you actually want are very low.

LameFox.6349:

Are you sure it drops more than one stat?

It drops…
Carrion…
Berserker…
Cleric…
Knight…
Celestial…
Rabid…
Assassins…
Apothecary…

There are many more, it would have a 25%-100% chance to drop one of these weapons, it would have a very little chance to drop the one you actually want.

Currently the chance to get something you actually want is like… 0.005%.

What would you rather have…

Him staying as he currently is with reasonable loot.
25%-50%-75%-100% chance to have a 10% chance to get what you want. (since there are so many ascended types

Him being nerfed to the ground because nobody will do him.
His health/powers/everything will be lowered to casual level, nobody will want to due him because crafting your own guarenteed ascended weapon is much easier and less time consuming. Even crafting a legendary is the same!

I’d rather he stay challenging, but have reasonable loot, BUT that is just me. I KNOW for a fact that one of these things will happen…

His current weapons are pretty much appearance gear. Due to stats.

DarkWasp.7291:

Vol.5241:

It takes 15 minutes to do it. If you win, you get massive rewards. If you lose, well tough luck, you lost 15 minutes.

What’s the problem?

Correction:

It takes about 45 minutes to get in a server capable of getting him down to 75% : 30 minutes to reserve your place in the spawn window and 15 minutes to do the fight

2+ hours to get in a server that is even capable of going beyond 75%.

And in that 25% chance, you have a 2.5%ish percent chance to get the ascended weapon you actually want.

Those rewards are a bit too high, but I do agree with the idea in general of giving him better rewards. My reward schedule would look more like:

75% Health
1 guaranteed rare
2 exotic boxes
15% chance at an exotic weapon

50% Health
1 guaranteed rare
2 exotic boxes
25% chance at an exotic weapon

25% Health
2 guaranteed rares
35% chance at an exotic weapon
4 exotic boxes

0%, You successfully downed him.
6 rares and 2 guaranteed exotic weapons
6 exotic boxes
50% chance for an additional exotic weapon
15% chance for an ascended weapon
7.5% chance for a Tequatl ascended weapon

You don’t understand

Its not that high, its like 2.5% to get what you want.

In time, people will be downing him regularly. You don’t want to make ascended crafting invalidated.

No, he will be nerfed instead. Currently hes a waste of time.

Have you ever played a game like Lineage 2 with big open world bosses (Antharas, Baium, Lilith)?

Don’t care about other games. I know the path the game will take if the reward isn’t worth the effort.

People will avoid the encounter.

Kuruptz.4782:

75% heallth shouldnt have a chance of ascended that is to high

50% maybe 20% chance of ascended 25 50%

when killed it should be 100% thats what i think IF they dont nerf him alot

Dude, your thinking to much.

25% Chance to get an ascended weapon for example… but only a 2.5% chance to get the box you want.

Its much lower when you think about it that way.

Malediktus.9250:

Those rewards chances are way too good. 25% for an ascended weapon would be too good even for successfully downing him.

its a RANDOM ascended weapon chest. Meaning you have a random chance to not get the box you want. Or get the same box twice.

You could get the condition version 10 times and never get the berserker set.

Allow us to use breathers on land.

Make it a private instance 24 players can do every 3 days.

Please do this

100% chance to drop a RANDOMLY stated ascended weapon chest.
33% chance after that to also drop his weapon.

mini.6018:

Berserker stance.Yes yes ,it won’t affect +duration speech,but it doesnt.I never received any condition while having it active and i find it hard to believe that none on the average of 100 necros i fought in spvp in the last 2 months had at least 10% duration from either build, rune or sigil.

Idk if working as intended like engies version or a bug.But is no real problem imo cuz of long cd.It only affects spammers.

Oh noes i spammed all my weapon skills and utilty and now im sitting duck when instead i should have notice it before the 8seconds and couple dozen of "IMMUNE " being spammed on my screen.

Ok.. your complaining about Shouts, However they take up a Utility Slot, I can’t be a Shout Warrior AND have Berserker Stance.

I would be nerfing myself.

If a group of people manage to actually kill this boss, it should autodrop an ascended chest and have a 33% chance to drop the new ascended.

I reset my client 4 times. Still not fixed.

I’m one of my guild leaders, I can rep my guild, I just can’t use guild chat or any features..

Dots should do full damage if you have all the stacks, and physical attacks should critically hit against these bosses.

Melee people are instantly knocked out and cannot melee. There is no amount of buffs in the game to keep you in melee and it doesn’t do enough extra damage to bother.

Asomal.6453:

Writetyper.1985:

Yes, HGH engis permanently throwing grenades at 25% frenzy is a really good idea.

Thank you based daecollo.

Hahahahahahahahahaha
Don’t forget they can also stack 25 stacks of vunerability just by auto attacking with the nades. So that makes:

You: 25% faster, 750 power and condition damage
Enemy: 25% slower, 25% more chance to get critical hitted

Yes, I know nades are quite overpowered and the rest of the weapon sets are not. I don’t care and they would probably get nerfed.

Already a thread for this.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/warrior/Please-change-or-nerf-Unsuspecting-foe-trait

Sigil of Para is already getting nerfed, and other classes are gaining soft counters to our AOE Stuns. (Look at Engineer.)

If you nerf to much at once you destroy the class and bring us back to where we were prebuffed, please think before asking for nerfs. We actually need a self-sustain healing trait Grandmaster along the lines of what other classes Receive, like Altruistic Healing for example.

Nerfing the Stun nerfs Unsuspecting Foe Significantly. Your basicly making the trait 2/3 of what it was.

We have some of the worst Minor Traits in the game, besides a few.

Take the body of an almost dead Courtier and put the body into a Nightmare Husk to control of it and turn it into a Nightmare Dreadknight.

Kind of like a Chaos Dreadnaught in W40k, would be a cool idea!

“They took the body of there insane fallen brothers, stuffing them into the Nightmare Husk, they literally have to chain these guys to the wall with vines then release them to fight. They are completely insane beasts.”

Could even make a Infinite Tonic for it… I just think the creature and the artwork in it would be AMAZING. (You see a HUGE Nightmare Husk, the golden part of its body holding the body of an almost dead sylvari.)

Angriff.1935:

I think that giving a daze or even damage to shouts would be totally asinine.

There’s already enough instant cast, un-telegraphed crap in this game and the warrior doesn’t need that.

This idea is basically a “hey wouldn’t it be cool,” but it wouldn’t be.

Imagine a warrior that heals around 1100 hp per second AND interrupts you when it heals AND its also nearly immune to conditions AND it hits like a truck.

It would just be plain bad for the game.

If shouts had a cast time it would make much more sense, but they don’t.

That’s why a trait like this would be much better suited to the warhorn skills. Not only can they see that you’re carrying a warhorn, but you also would have to cast the skills.

Even if the warhorn got something like that, it might be over-the-top.

And with that I’m done here!

“Immune to conditions” How?

Penguin.5197:

Just straight up buffs? Idk not really maybe for a guardian or warrior but we….we need something fun to use.

Ya have plenty fun things to do already. Lol

Might
Skills and actions are 1% faster.
Increases Power and Condition Damage by 30.

Vulnerability
Skills and actions are -1% faster.
Increases chance to be critically hit by 1%. (this improves condition/power builds.)

Elixir X (60 second cool-down.)
Drink Elixir X: Gain Might, and Protection.
5 Might: 30 s
Protection: 30 s

Just remove the RNG, make it a unique skill for engineers.

Daecollo.9578:

Trait is already being nerfed.

can we have a link to that statement?

JonathanSharp.7094:

Thanks guys!

We’re being very mindful about the way the Sigil of Para fix will hit Warriors. We’ve already got another balance patch brewing, and we’re being very careful to watch all the classes and see how they feel after we shave down the condition spam classes slightly.

As others have said, once we bring down the conditions that “hold down” some of the physical based classes, they will feel stronger. We’re aware of that!

Thanks again for the feedback!

Trait is already being nerfed.

mini.6018:

I guess since you are suggesting 3 aoe interrupts on 20 sec cd at 600 range.You could aswell suggest a Nuke as elite on 40 second cooldown at this pace.Wait, that would mean giving up fury and swiftness; better make it unblockable autoattack.

Sounds fair to me, however they arn’t all 20 second CD.

Steelo.4597:

what does “every 1.4 seconds” have to do with duration stacking when talking about interrupts? please l2comprehend.

That is /VERY/ Coordinated, and probably wouldn’t be viable. It would take one stability to prevent that entire attack.

Dand.8231:

Daecollo.9578:

Scrap Powerful Banners… replace with POWERFUL SHOUTS!

Powerful Shouts
Shouts do damage and daze when using a shout.
Damage: Same as Powerful banners
Daze: ¼ s
Range: 600

I support a Powerful Shouts trait. But damage is boring, we have plenty of ways to do damage. Lets have it do something more interesting, a debuff like Weakness 2s, or Cripple 2s, or a stack of bleed or something.

Daze, however, is far too strong.
Imagine, 1 warrior fighting in 5v5 battle. Shake it off, FGJ, On my mark.
The warrior will be shouting every 7 seconds (rounded for simplicity)

Interrupting 5 people, every 7 seconds is pretty strong, but it gets worse when you add in multiple warriors.

5 warriors, all shouting non-stop. On average, they will be shouting every 1.4 seconds.
All enemies will be dazed and interrupted every 1.4 seconds, for the entire duration of the fight.

And thats not even mentioning what happens when you combine that with distracting strikes, and perplex runes. Even solo, you’d have 15+ stacks on confusion on all foes at all times without even trying. Yeah thats not at ALL overpowered.

Typically Daecollo post.

Daze does not stack over itself. If all 5 warriors used there shouts at the exact same time, it would still be a 1/4 second daze. it does not stack up.

Also, that pretty much sums up a single Combo Field: Lightning. Except its more powerful.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/mesmer/Diversion-daze-doesn-t-stack-duration

“Daze is an effect caused by some skills which interrupts and prevents the target from using skills for a period of time. It does not stack in duration.”

Please learn mechanics before making a post.

Demonts.4593:

i agree with giving it a heal. The problem with 2 boons was that it counteted some classes too hard. This will fix that and keep s/p viable.

steal and copy a boon from them. (Stealing, then copying the next.)

NargofWoV.4267:

Watched a Vid the other day of a LS Warrior on Youtube, was amazed at the damage per swing, was seeing 3000, 4000, 2000, per hit rolling… Was like, wait I have a Exotic LS on my Ranger… 300, 200, 600 (oops my pet hit the target), 300….

I was like… oh nice. How in the world is this even right?

No, that is the rounded up entire attack.

If you do a chain attack like 100b, each hit adds up to a total.

You see 3000-4000-5000 because each hit is adding up to a total attack, its actually hitting for 1000 each.

Derren.8724:

True, a spear would fit warriors much better, but I haven’t heard of them letting us use underwater weapons on land yet : (

If they decide to, then spear all the way (I’d think a similar setup to what I had for staff, but maybe some bleed application on one of the attacks). Staff is the closest we can get to that for now, though.

Spear is more of a land then underwater weapon.

See how cool this looks?

Nightmare gauntlet brace…
Orrian Gauntlet hands…

Allow us to change the appearance of the “hands” part of armor and dye it.

For example.. I want to use the hand part of the Orrian Dungeon gloves, however I HATE the brace part, I want to use another gloves brace.

Also allow us to add two helmets together to make unique helmets, like thief hoods/masks.
