Guild Wars 2

you can’t activate these finishers when you already have the permanent version.
and the type to destroy is very case sensitive meaning you have to match what it says exactly.

its not hitting 80k anymore so its fixed.

you can’t be insta killed due to the downed mechanic you’ll always have 3 seconds of invulnerability transitioning to downed.

so its impossible for that to happen.

it should be around 12 est time

Actually RTL doesn’t do the knockdown, that would be updraft. And its definitely not accurate. Easily dodged by anyone with half a brain who sees the big glowing orb headed towards them and sometimes misses things right in front of you. It also will get snagged on the ground if the ground is slightly elevated for some reason. Its pretty buggy right now. And the fact you get locked out of your skills while doing it kinda sucks if someone immobilizes you. You’re a big floating “kill me” sign.

Trust me, you don’t want it changed to be like RTL. I’d just prefer rush to be a bit more accurate than it is now.

After playing both warrior and ele in wvw since headstart, I have to say that I definitely would trade Rush for RTL on my warrior! RTL is much faster movement, much better auto-aiming when target changes direction and it actually hits much more reliable than Rush because there’s no huge cast delay between the end of animation and the hit.

In the current state Rush is completely useless to actually hit a moving target. The only purpose is closing gaps. Double cooldown would ruin Rush because you never hit anything with it even if you use it offensively.

you haven’t played an ele recently if you prefer a skill with a 40 second CD always stuck at 1200 range lack of perma swiftness, having to use an elite just to get what warriors already have.
not to mention rubber banding, biggest telegraphed attack in all of GW2, minimal damage, will not cure immobilized, and will always miss something bigger than a norn or charr.

so please tell me why you prefer RTL?

is this what your talking about?

Champs should be at some harder to reach locations like end of mini dungeons not in plain fields which makes it easy to do a 5 minute rounds on which you farms 7 champs…

Anything that would encourage bit more coginitive actions than “follow zerg press 1” routine!!!!

you don’t have to get easy money if you don’t have to, but not everybody has a silver spoon in their kitten and buys a bunch of gems.
its not like legendaries are any easier to get since prices of everything needed keep getting over inflated

i to do not like wasting my time with those world bosses and do not enjoy getting free rares, so i agree with this buff and think they should buff all world boss events so everybody knows to think like me.

to not waste their time with them.

Raven.3248:

So im posting this here because this is the best thread and im board at work.
So you get 4 types of players in GW
The elitists.
The players that strife to be better
The players that suck
and the players that are just good.

What do you think?

i don’t appreciate the implication that elitists are the top tier, when they honestly belong on the bottom.

i have no zerker gear and i don’t run a cookie cutter build, but i play better than 90% of elitists.
does that make me a “bad”?

its just like multi target aoe fields some hits will have a chance to crit and some wont.
if you drop down one of the guardians fields will all the hits crit? the staff is the same way.

Solomon’s thinking is the same type of thinking that some people with legendaries have about precursor prices becoming cheaper/“easier” to get than they are now(Coming from someone who farmed 2 legendaries). It’s a crappy and selfish way of thinking.

You are incorrect. Precursors are not limited time only. Also when Halloween was ending last year they even said get your mad king chests now before these Halloween skins are gone forever…

I want proof of this. Where is this quote you are talking about?

It was posted in the final days of the Halloween event on the Black Lion tab. Before you ask, obviously I don’t have a screenshot because who the hell would take a screen of that. Never expected to have to prove it to anyone as in other MMOs I have played limited time and never to return items are just a reality of the MMO genre…

apparently you’re so naively special that you haven’t heard of a sales promotion before in your life.
a sales promotion like that is when a company lies about something to get more money out of people wanting the things in that sale.
btw never hold a company on its written word.

we don’t need to improve it we just need to put firework launchers at tequatl so that he can’t terrorize that 1 beach anymore.

It better not come back… I don’t mind if they offer new weapons but in no way shape or form should the old ones come back… They should be limited edition to be owned by the priviledged few who were there for the original event and busted their tails to get it…

I really hope those weapons return just to spite this guy.

Anyway, I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to craft those weapons again. I remember reading something related to that.

Let me preface this by saying I earned all four of my Halloween skins during the Halloween event and I use all of mine. If they bring these skins back it will screw over EVERYONE who purchased these using in game gold from the TP. These have a “special” market value due to their limited time status. If they bring them back then they should refund anyone who spent the hundreds of gold to obtain them from the TP months after the event took place. Not to mention the fact that the market value of these will collapse over night screwing over anyone who was trying to sell them as well…

so your logic is that these skins shouldn’t come back because you couldn’t wait till halloween and went ahead and blew all your cash for a skin, so now you don’t want to feel like a complete idiot and make sure that the skins don’t come back.
i really hope you never get into a position of any power.

stall him until you can run to a pool of water, little bit harder in wvw since they made the middle of the BL thief friendly.
but 1 or 2 things will happen, he’ll be stupid and fight one of the best classes underwater, or he’ll run.

only really reliable method to beat a thief.

Kk, OPclass, kkty.

- Increase the cooldown on Rush to 40 seconds, 20 if an enemy is hit. In line with the Elementalist RTL nerf as they are identical skills with different animations. Granted Rush isn’t quite as fast as RTL but I’m sure elementalists would rather have the 20 second CD and a slower skill.
- Remove 1 stun from Hammer. The 3 current ones can be chained for a 6 second stun. I don’t even wanna go into Stun Duration sigils.
- Assuming full adrenaline, decrease the stun duration of Skull Crack to 2 seconds. In line with Earthshaker.

Discuss!

-K, give us a flame leap, and a teleport. Also, make it so that Rush is immune of cripple, chill, immobilization and then increase the speed by 100%. Also, give us 15 more skills so that we can keep in line with Elementalist.
-k, remove stability.
-That is just plain stupid. Skull Crack is 3 seconds because it lacks AoE the and leap that hammers have. If Skull crack is to be nerfed to 2 seconds, then skull crack will never to be a ranged stun.

now iv’e seen it all, people who still think ele’s are any good.
you have a flame leap its called bow f1 and sword 2 skill.
rush cures all movement conditions RTL does not, not to mention try and RTLing while immobilized? you’ll be stuck in place with a 40 sec kitten you.
roll an ele and you’ll see why your statement is a contender for dumbest poster of the year.
the mace is a problem but there is no actual way to fix it and not make it useless, besides perplexity builds.

You are imagining the warrior with 100s of weapons between which he can swap freely. And rush doesn’t cure any conditions at all, except immobilize if you trait for it (20 deep). Movement speed debuff and chill still apply and puppy rush completely up.

warriors do have 100s of weapons to choose between they have the most weapon skills out of any class.
and you must be imagining the at launch ele’s that you rolled then re rolled for a warrior.
i’d rather have the exact same as rush with RTL because its exactly the same thing, except it doesn’t cure immobilize, it rubber bands is not affected by perma swiftness that ele’s do not have.
and out of the 90% of the times it misses your stuck with a 40 second F/U from devs.

so please complain about how bad warriors are more, im sure the ele forum would have a field day with this.

[Walks in and reads]
“Guardians out-DPS warriors.”
[Walks out laughing hysterically]

LOL, your ignorance is whats hysterical. IF you take into consideration reflections, guardians have better dps then warriors.

Because warriors can take lupi down to 50% in less then 2 seconds right?

apparently you’ve never seen the world record with 3 warriors an ele with a fiery gs and a mesmer.
if the ele didnt have the fiery rush thing it be 4 warriors and a mesmer.

need any more proof that warriors do more?

Geekfox.4267:

Since the culling went away, they’ll load in before exploding. Just be sure to yell “BOOMER!” before they explode.

The champion ones are quite noticeable if you have Enemy name tag enabled. It makes it easier to spot a long name like Champion Risen Plague Carrier.

when was culling removed for mobs? cuz im still getting hit from “unknown”

by the gods every single party i go as soon some kid is downed he rage quits if not someone else requests a kick

or worse if someone asks somethign as simple as Who’s gonna tank the fire eles on the ooze part he gets kicked cuz to the others he’s a “noob”

really people what is wrong with you you want everything handed to you without putting effort nor learning nor letting others learn about the content?

Those aren’t elitists, those are spoiled children.
Learn the difference, it could save your dungeon raid.

is there really a difference between the two?

play as a thief Anet doesnt treat them like they treat eles.

Jason.9643:

i got another idea.

simply raise the animation higher than the camera of the oponent. at least only himself isnt able to see whats coming, have to rely on really good skill or chance to duck out of harms way.

similar to DR/ Queen’s Guantlet – Liadri’s fight. with the lame shadowfall attacks that you can see only if you are spectating the fight, but if you are in the fight yourself – the effects are above your camera, making it hard to predict when the attack will hit.

dragons tooth does have an aoe circle btw, and its more easily noticed than liadri stupid attack.

it caps at 33% and you can get 70% speed buff with just the traits and signet alone, another 25% if you get certain runes.

i’d love to see an ele run at 90%+ normal speed, with swiftness. but then thieves wouldn’t like that because once again they would have to work for a ele kill instead of just looking at an ele and getting free loot.

don’t use the glyph its so ungodly slow that its literally faster for everybody to just hit F to revive if someone goes down.

I doubt you can singlehandedly revive 3 people in the time it takes to channel the glyph. When 75% of the zerg goes down to a wave or poison field, F is hardly an option. When only one or two people go down then sure, F away.

you do not know how long that skill takes to channel, you can single handedly rez 5 people by the time that skill would finally take to proc.
and not to mention if the zerg wipes on the poison field they’re either gonna die while your channeling it or mist form out of the range of it.

You absolutely cannot singlehandedly rez even 1 person before the glyph channel finishes. If you ever used this skill in dungeons you would know. Not to mention you can move out of aoe while channeling so you don’t die trying to help others. The only reason people get rezed so fast at Teq is because so many people are helping, meaning your individual input is negligible without the glyph. I regularly get 3 experience popups letting me know I’ve rezed 3 people when using the glyph in teq fight. You can also channel in anticipation of people dying to a wave since there is a near 100% chance that some will on EVERY wave.

Anyways, at this point I would say to any eles, join TTS (Tequatl Terror Squad), and put my build to use there. I just fought with them today and won handily. They have the numbers and know how, but more knowledgeable eles will surely help them even more.

you do know the signet will not revive someone from full dead, that means the blue skull and cross bones, so yes you can rez more people just by pressing f then the time it takes to channel. you would know this if you bothered to rez someone instead of just calling them a noob and telling them to waypoint.

you do know if the skill can be interrupted during the wave, since it does do a knockdown, and since eles are the squishiest class in the game theres a good chance you’ll die in the middle of the channel.
its safer and more efficient to just press F to rez some downed person.

so instead of 5 players we can have 10 total?

i think i got a better one.

can you tell us how to do it with less than 30 people? because not everybody guests to blackgate.

i know plenty of warriors and other classes who laugh at anything on the forums, but when they get asked for a duel they refuse and you never hear of them again. some difference between having a big mouth on the forum because they killed a few noobs in wvw and actually having a clue about whats possible, only lots of experience teaches what kind of broken builds are possible in wvw, you need to fight them first to see it. i dont know man.. you call 17k+ instant damage out of stealth on a 3.2k armor guy balanced? seriously.. if you read through this thread you can see that this kind of damage is still far from the maximum you can do as a thief and 3.2-3.3k armor is about what you get with every piece of exotic gear having toughness stat on it.

btw there is an edit button, you dont have to make a new post everytime you come up with a new thought.

Want to talk about Kill Shot and Eviscerate?
WvWvW has never and will ever be balanced by design. Deal with that.

lets talk about the warrior with a rifle staring at you for an hour before he does anything, or lets talk about the warrior hugging you before he does anything.
not to mention they have to build adrenaline before they can even do those skills to the fullest usually blowing some utility to do that.

now lets compare that to an invisible thief thats impossible to notice. and still has ultimate control of the fight if his burst fails.

they’ll disappear but not from boss week being over, but from everybody not wanting to bother with it anymore.

hard open world raid boss on a 2 hour spawning window = a lonely boss.

its RAID level content in OPEN WORLD, how do you not see the problem here?
theres a difference between doing map completion and walking into the event and going through a instance door.

don’t use the glyph its so ungodly slow that its literally faster for everybody to just hit F to revive if someone goes down.

Arkanfel.8403:

Why do people keep saying that +150 to stats is “broken.”

Look at banners. Banner of Strength gives you +170 to Power and condition damage. Banner of defense gives you +170 Vitality and Toughness. Banner of Discipline dishes out more DPS than banner of strength does.

Are banners broken? Are people “too hard” to kill when they’re within banner range? I mean really now this is just getting silly.

The orb buff is not broken. Stop complaining about it.

if you see a warrior drop a bunch of banners down then you see a free loot bag, its like a signet warrior but 10x better.
as literally anything will kill him since he has 0 utilities.

im pretty sure baby dragons are about the size of drake broodmothers, and i think its more embarrassing for zhaitan since his own lieutenant is stronger than him by miles.

Nah, Baby Dragons are quite bigger than a Broodmother Drake.

Look at this reference picture from Glint’s Challenge to see the size of a Glint offspring:

http://wiki.guildwars.com/images/4/48/Glint%27s_Challenge_map.jpg

Those six small figures to the left and right of it are the Player Characters.

I assume that Tequatl is just the name given to one of many champions of Zhaitan, much like the Claw of Jormag is a Claw of Jormag and The Shatterer is just one of many Shatterers.

each one of zhaitans dragons has a different name, you could see two more different lieutenants when you do the arah story mission and kill zhaitan by popping a bunch of fireworks in his face before he’s eventually blinded to death and falls.

in all honesty that is a completely fair fight.

Here I will fix this for you…

entire BL v “that guild” turtling a tower with 357893892 arrow carts and a couple trebs…
in all honesty that is a completely boring “fight”.

But why would you bother?

See what you do here is just let turtles sit in a tower doing whatever they do(second window for farmville, create internet cat memes???) for hours and then just wait for them to go to sleep and retake your tower. See you can go karma train some other objectives, get some open field fights vs. some guilds that don’t immediately deploy open field siege, or even camp the jumping puzzle for lulz.

-brotha

how many people did you have? and explain to me how your entire BL couldn’t take out less than 30 people?
i really wanna know this, if an entire BL can’t run past a few ACs and win due to the sheer amount of lag going then you seriously need to rethink some tatics.

Well, EU tier 9 has completed it all now. But I have to thank [TKS] Tequatl killing squad for their time, the entire guild is guesting servers to teach people how to do it.

Have a huge amount of people guest over and then do it for you, is not doing it. That’s getting it done by someone else

Having 50 people come over to help isn’t them doing it considering the other 100 of us at the site anyway. But for a small pop server, it’s beneficial considering all the people interested now know how to do it. So we can do it again. Anyway when did this become a competition? It’s about the community getting together to kill a boss

it’s more than just 50 coming over, way more than 50. they can teach all the 10 native people on the server how to do doesn’t mean its gonna get done. how do you think they managed to get 150+ people on the server in the first place?

Tequatl is being beaten by only t1 servers and by gigantic guilds, he has not been beaten in some overflow and never will.
i have no idea where you are getting this info from but its wrong.
not to mention its not even a win every time.

ShunsuiKouKyoraku.9106:

The game suffers from people like you.

oh the irony, it will literally slap anyone in the face that reads your comment.

you know they made challenging content like this before, it was called the karka queen, now go to southsun and tell me what its like today? tell me if its thriving because they made content geared towards you and not the people who’s making the game suffer.

tell me, how many times do you think a guild is gonna do a world boss when his chest is daily?
you want them to create content that can only be done by gigantic guilds?

im all for these dragons being out of site and out of mind, cuz thats exactly where there gonna stay, and not be done.

and you’re overestimating the amount of people in Gw2 who aren’t “noobs”

what you need to do is guest to these high populated servers like blackgate so none of the actual native T1 server residents can get in.
then you’ll have a gigantic server crying because they’re all stuck in overflow.

Ours. We, as a community, have been clamoring for harder PvE content and decrying the ease with which the world bosses were toppled for about a year now.

that was you, not the community. the community right now is clamoring to get him fixed so he can be doable by every server by random people, not just some organized T1 guild.
stop getting those elitists who refuse to look for a challenge and the actual community mixed up.
everybody was fine about getting a free rare a day from tequatl, just the elitist that had the problem.
