Guild Wars 2

Hey, I mean for everybody, everyone seems to say the same >_>

Anyone else find this kind of weird? … shouldn’t he be more serious about it?

For examine, he says it alot, I play a Sylvari so he says it really really weirdly, why does he always say it, I can see hes gaining Adrenaline, wouldn’t it be cooler if he was shouting angrilly or something?

Examples.
“Kill… KILL!” – SAYING ANGRILLY.
“Haha!” – EVIL LAUGH.
“BREAK THEM IN HALF!”

Sexy Male Voice… “Go ahead…hit me big boy..”
Instead… “I AM INVINCIBLE!”

Is there any “Condition Damage/Toughness/Vitality” Gear for Necromancers?

This would go well with the survivability they have.

What effects Direct Damage Builds?
- Power.
- Precision.
- Critical Chance.
- Critical Damage.

What Effects Condition Damage Builds:
- Condition Damage.

Why can’t Power Increase Condition Damage as well, wouldn’t that be fair?

Everyone who uses Direct Damage already double/triple dips with Power/Critical Damage/Precision.

Power should effect Condition Damage attacks, but only 1/2 as much as condition damage does, this would bring Condition Damage builds more in line with Precision as a Stat.

If Anything, Power should also effect condition damage.

No, because then Condition Damage would be even more worthless then it is now, as long as the "Condition Damage’ stat makes it critical and not “Precision” it would be fine though.

D/B is meant for Condition Damage builds and it can get up to 4000 if you stack Condition Damage, Ruining the attack for Condition Damage builds will no way help the class, D/D Thieves have enough tools, don’t take and ruin it for other thieves.

Greatsword Warriors get a Vuln stack EVERY autoattack and 33% chance on a critical chance… for MORE seconds then body shot does.

We need something else, not a bad version of another specs utility.

3 Different Jewelry/Armor tabs.

Can only be switched every out of combat.

Why?

I have 3 different sets of armor/jewelry

One for Condition Damage.
One for Direct Damage.
One for MAGIC FIND GEAR.

My bank is FULL, I cannot have an alt anymore.

Vital Shot and Body Shot.

This is the main problem, Vital Shot seems to focus on “condition damage” while Body Shot seems to focus on vulnerability.

Body Shots Vulnerability is not enough, Body Shot deals almost no damage at all and almost does as much as Vital Shot, but the Bleed is better damage then 1 stack of vulnerability and Body Shot costs 3 initiative…

Something needs to be done, you can’t focus on both condition damage and vulnerability.

Instead of applying vulnerability, body shot should set the target on fire.

Unload should add 4 stacks of bleeding to the target and do less damage, but still hit 8 times.

Either this, or it needs to be changed to be heavy on vulnerability and focused on critical hitting.

It seems to only last about a second before it goes away… this cannot be right, other traits from other classes last up to 1000 seconds (forever.)

Allow Minions to dodge whenever the Necromancer dodges, along the same way the necromancer does.

All weapons have different ability delays.

Not just that… with the traits being synced up, you could also add more traits to make up the difference and add a unique touch.

“Sharpened Axes” – Change to “Killing Intent”
Your Melee Attacks Gain Adrenaline. (instead of just Axes.)

“Stronger Bowstrings” – Change to “Reach”
Increases Range of All Weapons and skills and shouts by 15%.
(Just make long bows shoot longer by default, its a long bow.)

“Sundering Mace” – Change to “Sunder!”
Attacks with the Main-hand weapon have a chance to to cause 1 second of weakness on a critical hit, this can only happen once every second. (So hammers do not get disadvantaged.)

“Merciless Hammer” – Change to “No Mercy”
Attacks on knocked down foes ignore their defenses and deals 5% more damage.

“Blunt Weapon Master” – Change to “Armored Hulk”
Reduces cool-downs on all Weapon Skills by 10% and reduces damage done to the warrior by 5%.

Honestly, you say its dumping down, but most classes are like this, traits arn’t meant to be switched around.

If you merged some of these traits and made them useful for all weapons, its BETTER overall for the balance of the game. (Hey I can now use axes because they give me might!) ect ect….

But it offers more playstyle choices AND better traits to be made for the future.

Several Warrior traits and builds are kind of “Must use for X”, this destroys sync and balance for most weapons, and most warriors probably wish they should be able to use things for all weapons.

So… I will start a list..

Strength:
X: Axe Mastery – rename to “Weapon Mastery”
Improves All Weapons Critical Damage by 10%.

IX: Slashing Power – rename to “Weapon Power”
All Weapons Damage is improved by 5%.
(not a nerf, because it was 10%, but only worked for GS, If you switch weapons, you still get 5% from it.)

Arms:
X: Forceful Greatsword – rename to “Forceful Strikes.”
Gain Might on a Critical hit.
Increases animation speed of all weapons by 20%.

VIII: Blackmaster -
Increases Critical Chance by 10%.

VII: Crack Shot -
Rifle/Longbow/Speargun shots pierce/skills are reset 20% More.

There are several more I want to work on, but basicly changing it so all things work for all weapons, but nerfed slightly or buffed slightly.

Its a yellow item, and has terrible stats.

Are you kidding? with all the stuff I have to buy every day to keep up with the game… grr

T1: 60 silver.
T2: 2 gold.
T3: 30 gold…. What!?

Something is terribly wrong with this… I can understand 30 gold for the entire set, but for ONE piece of armor out of 6?!

The only people I see who have this are mostly people who abused bugs to get alot of gold or bought it before they nerfed the prices.

Shadow’s Embrace (Removes 1 condition every 3 seconds when you go into stealth.)

Having it at half its duration sure hurts, especially when you give up alot of damage for it.

Duration could use an increase from 15 seconds to 25 seconds, the “bug” that fixed it screwed up alot.

Especially as a tanking thief, the vigor buff made sense.

Also, the Warrior trait “33% chance on critical to cause bleed.” if the bleed criticalled as well, it could very well lead to an infinite loop of bleeds on the target since it would happen multiple times.

No, because that would screw up balanced and that would make warriors, especially critical heavy ones completely overpowered, that would also make thief overpowered as well, since alot of them use critical chance builds and alot of our attacks have bleeds built into them, it would also make precision 2-3x more important then condition damage.

If you make Condition Damage Critical, you would have to nerf precision to add half the critical chance it currently adds now, and nerf several traits to about half there effectiveness.

As long as it doesn’t go over terrain, and cracks.

I have 2 pieces I got for 84k, I got it for my alt and realized he could not use it.

The only GOOD looking Med Armor for Males is the T3 Cultural Ninja armor.. :/ and the berserkers one…

with 600 healing power, it only increases heals from 5k to 6k, it would make everyone a little better.

Honestly, nobody really specs for +healing and toughness needs a little help, if Toughness/Healing were the same stat, it would bring toughness in-line with other stats, and honestly, healing more does make you a bit tougher.

Allow characters to use the dye to dye there accessorys.

Death Blossom is for Condition Builds, not DD Builds, use Heartseeker/C/D/Backstab for your damage.

Honestly, with the way the games set up, there is no reason to have levels on gear, so what if I can wear level 80 gear on a level 27, I earned that gear with gold/karma (ectect.) from my main, and it doesn’t give that much of a huge advantage, it just lets me look and feel the way I want to, without having to do another BORING grind to 80 to wait to wear the things i’ve been saving in my bank.

Shadowstep, then dodge.

Dual Axes can get 20 stacks of might too, probably easier since you hit 3x faster then a GS.

EpicFace.8096:

You think GS does more damage then dual axe?
Can I have the axes then?
Heh, fool.

Yes, it’s not even a contest. Unless you’re traited awkwardly, the GS traits, plus the high crit + the crit dmg % easily surpasses Dual Axe.

It’s pretty simple unless you have some strange bias towards Axe over GS. The Auto attack damage of an Axe is higher than the autoattack of the GS. Traited GS gains 10% damage through Slashing Power, 20% lower CDs from Forceful Greatsword and Might on Crit. The time it takes for that Axe auto attack to finish putting out its dmg, 100Bs would be done, followed up by a Whirlwind. 6.5 seconds later you’re ready for another 100Bs, while it’s on CD, I like to swap to something else, like Axe for the auto attack or mainly a longbow to use the Adrenaline on something worthwhile. Combustive Shot>Arcing Arrow>(filler if needed) then switch back to GS (making use of Fast Hands -5sec weapon swap CD) and repeat the process. The terrible burst of the GS is halfway a boon depending on your traits. I run Berserker’s Power and Heightened focus for an additional 12% more dmg and 9% crit as long as Adrenline is at stage 3 which it always is if I never swap to my offhand due to how unappealing GS’s burst skill is.

I like GS, I like 1HD swords more because it fits my personal idea of what I’d like my Warrior to do, but I’m also not regurgitating the strange self loathing Warriors have of other GS Warriors because it’s “cookie cutter”. Even stat wise the GS is comparable to a dual wield Axe of the same Prefix. Pearl Berserker’s GS is 179 power, 129 Precision and 9% crit vs 2X Berserker Pearl Axes at 180 Power, 128 Precision and 10% crit.

At 400/400 Armorsmith/Weaponsmith I have my Swords, GS, Axes as exotic. I’ve tried them all under very many different situations and none of the weapon loadouts cover every goal of gameplay perfectly, but for overall PvE general gameplay/farming the GS beats the Axe in kill time.

Yeah thats nice and all, but GS’s have to hit to gain “Might”…

I’ve pretty much mastered exactly what GS Animations ALL look like, easy to avoid 100b and your stuck there for almost 3 seconds EVEN if you try and move.

FOR AN AXE, Did you know you can still move while using ALL axe abilitys, even the spin, YOU CAN even dodge during it.

Greatsword is so easy to avoid though… Whilst Axes are not, they may do less damage… but honestly, who cares if they do less damage, AXES HIT.

Yeah sure, if you dont know how to play yes… But if you do know how to play, then the greatsword is not so easy to avoid.

It doesn’t matter if the Warrior knows how to play. It matters whether or not their opponent knows how to play.

You can dodge or interrupt to get out of Hundred Blades. It’s easy to see it coming, and if you really want to test this, run CM and fight the second boss. Yea, it’s really not that difficult.

How are you gonna avoid, if your stunned or rooted?

What Attilian said.

Also, there are stun breakers, Stability, and condition removal for Immobilize. ._.

I’ve discredited his whole statement now that he’s revealed he’s not a team player and doesn’t understand that games like this are not balanced around 1v1 encounters.

Haha, yeah right smartass… Your clearly a pro player, if you follow your team around the pvp maps all the time. i bet your most likely on the winning team haha

MY CLASS IS BORING, I SPECCED FOR ALL SIGNETS AND NO BODY STANDS STILL FOR ME SO I CAN KILL THEM WITH MY GREAT SWORD, PLZ FIX CLASS PLZ.

I’m rolling a warrior because they are an amazing class.

I am rolling a warrior, almost already have a full set of exotic gear for him, i’m going Shouts+Axes/Shouts+Rifle, Why? because its different and nobody knows how to counter an AXE Warrior because 6 out of 10 of the animations look EXACTLY the same, whereas the GREATSWORD all have different and slow animations.

Not to mention 1h Axe and 1h Swords animations and abilities move so fast.

And how are you gonna hit if you’re stunned or Rooted? You may have some charges on Greatsword, but I keep Bulls Charge, Stomp, and I have my 1hSword Leap, my Rifle Slow. and if I’m hammer, I have more CC than you can shake a stick at. GL while my Team focuses you down while you’re on the ground from my hammer

OHHH so thats how you play… Yeah well, if you have your team to back you up 24/7 then yeah sure hammer is cool, cos it stuns all the time… So clearly your just santas little helper, stunning the peeps, while the homies, do all the insane damage? but what if they are not there to help you. Im tellin ya GS/Shield. Only thing that works in pvp

Its like sPvP and WvW is a team game or something?

It is? omg…

Lol it all depends on playstyle, sure if you wanna be a kittenwarrior who just runs in uses his stuns and then gets the hell away from that area. or if you wanna be the warrior that actually deals damage. The warrior that can defend a point alone.

Axes/Swords do lots of damage…

But theres one tip you didn’t think… its an ancient secret passed between all warriors…

“You can’t deal damage when your dead.”

but i thught that warrier was a solo class!11

Thats why you use frenzy with GS…

Axes animations are naturally faster, don’t even have to frenzy with them, you can focus on more important things, like living and using banners and shouts to cure conditions and heal yourself.

Lol@notsoeasytoavoid…

The Animation/Buffs you have TELL me exactly when your going to use 1hb, all sword animations look different and they are ALL slow.

Meanwhile, AXES abilities ALL look mostly the same, you can never tell WHICH ability your going to use.

Not only that, AXES abilities animations are almost 2x faster then swords.

Yes, Thief are the God class, you should just play one and win, when you go into pvp warriors will bend down for ya as you walk all over them.

Obviously, since they are so good you should have no problem playing it.

He has 13k HP…. and no toughness….

Hes not specced for dodging….

He has no survivability…

He will probably die instantly when focused…

D/D and S/P are completely different.

I’d rather make the damage on abilities less and give you more intitative to use more then just the damage ability, which encourages faster gameplay, not slower.

As long as everyone with MF gear is properly given the gold they spent on it.
