Guild Wars 2

you need focus as a switch weapon just for skill 5 and unfortunately sword is the best main hand weapon we have atm, even though it is severely outdated.

Design the land spear with a melee auto attack chain (something close to revenant sword auto chain, or give it just insane attack speed, like diablo 2’s amazon jab ability) but have skill 2 and 3 ranged.

Imo instead of a new mechanic or type of skills, I’d much rather Anet takes the opportunity of the next elite spec to FIX or give us upgraded/better versions of spirit weapons or shouts.

That’s not something they would do with an elite spec, that’s something they would do in a major patch like the one in January. I hope they do more of those and address some of the issues that have been raised, but an elite spec will never fix core professions!

what i mean is new shouts and new spirit weapons

block him to see when he’s already in a match or not in the mists before you que.

its the workaround in lieu of an actual in game “blacklist” system.

Imo instead of a new mechanic or type of skills, I’d much rather Anet takes the opportunity of the next elite spec to FIX or give us upgraded/better versions of spirit weapons or shouts.

lol what? if split lasted 10 secs, every mesmer would just spam their entire skill bar for free recharge.

there would be literally zero downside to spamming all your skills.

when you run across an adrenal mushroom, you don’t think about which of your skills you want to use twice, you just empty your entire bar.

Don’t need another purely offensive 2handed weapon. We need sustain, not more burst.

core mediguard is an outdated build that would have problems facing even HoT elite specced thieves.

100% solo que, tier 2 diamond atm

amber-emerald felt way smoother, sapphire about the same, ruby was slightly worse.

diamond has been much much better.

Crimson Shi.5047:

Your virtue removes 3 conditions on activation,

wrong, the DH version only removes condis when it lands, it gets interrupted WAY too often and goes on full cooldown without any condis removed or heals.

Crimson Shi.5047:

I don’t think it’s 100%, and core medi guard was a beast against condi necs, smite conditions anyone? xD But most everyone only prefers DH. That said if a DH catches you with his spear o’ JOOSTICE, and the nec has no lifeforce it’s gg. But those are just variables. Chaos theory, and all that jazz.

Smite condition is in no way a viable counter to necros, 2 conditions removed every 16 secs…

basically you HAVE to run CoP and convert 4+ conditions that must include chilled into resistance and other boons and try to burst down the necro before he enters shroud. Otherwise you need to bail immediately.

base guardian is just broken, way too many useless traits and weapon skills.

nerf DH’s burst and trap bomb nonsense a bit (so the skill floor isn’t so mindlessly noob friendly) but the base guardian traits needs a necro s2 type of buff for guardians to be competitive again.

and by buffs, I don’t mean the 5 mins Karl spent on it and slapped together (zealous scepter gives 2 stacks of might instead of 1…lol yea game changing buff right there) prior to season 2. Overhaul it with actually useful changes and rework the mechanics of pretty much all the base guardian weapon skills.

doing it in 1 season is unrealistic.

doing it in 2 seasons requires diamond and legendary

doing it in 3 seasons requires diamond, ruby and ruby.

fwiw the next elite spec can be as OP as herald or scrapper and it still won’t guardians any more viable than they are now.

core guardian has some very serious and deep rooted issues that needs fixing/working ASAP for guardians to ever be seen in tournament play again.

we can snipe out necros for a bit if its say foefire mid, but the degree in which we get hilariously countered by the presence of just 1 ele or 2 scrappers makes guardians pretty pointless in team vs team matches (where there will always be an ele)

jesus effing christ, the scrapper hammer is literally the single best weapon skill set in the entire game and you’re complaining about how it doesn’t stack up vs Warrior or Guardian?

sustained DPS

Sunspear/Paragon elite spec with land spear weapon, uncorruptable/removable echo/chant skills.

it kind of is…you don’t run JI and uses a bar filled with traps, other than being a half decent node camper, there isn’t much else you can bring to the table for your team.

let’s put it this way, guardians have never been close to being the most efficient damage dealers (be it spike damage or sustained DPS) and have gotten even worse at dealing damage since HoT (compared to the rest of the meta)

but now its bunkering abilities have fallen to be on par with its absolutely horrid offensive abilities too (full kitten JI trap bomb combo once every 60 secs notwithstanding)

BrotherBelial.3094:

So I thought I’d play a little ranked today after a friend said he was getting hammered in every game. So I spend the whole day, and while I did win a few games this morning, I lost every game after that, and only 2 were a close loss, the rest where close complete blow outs.

I mean I’m sapphire T4, by now I would expect people to know how to call a target and to focus on said targets, this should be common by now right? I counted more than 6 games were I called a target, and no one called another target another target for the whole match. The one player ran around with a target on them the whole match. even when that player was not in the “big” fight, no one called a new target.

The next thing I noticed, was on kyhol, people running like lemming in to the middle when the enemy team if dropping treb rounds in to the room. and getting them self’s killed. not even regrouping, just running in one at a time to die.

People who go far time and time again, and die each and every time. they must be insane. it didn’t work that time, maybe it will now. Here’s a hint, he’s better than you, go help someone.

I would have expected by this point in the season that people would have figured these things out, but there seems to be an ever growing number of players like this. and when I play ranked they are always on my team it would seem.

I’m starting to wonder what ANet wanted to achieve with all this. Because for the average player it’s just a frustrating mess. I’m starting to think I’ll never get the wings. So much them being for everyone.

run a better meditrap build for starters?

sword focus, focus 5 is still one of the best stomp secure skills in the game and the nice thing is in the current meta it also will give your team area frost aura from blasting on necros’ ice fields.

guardians were the top bunker class during a time when conditions and CCs weren’t nearly as close to spammable and rampant as it is now, at no point during the game’s history have guardians been close to the best bruiser/fighter class or even near the top of the bruiser/fighter list.

Mintyfreshsmell.1568:

Do dragon hunter, camp a point and no one will stop you unless they have massive condi damage. DH is cancer.

revanant, staff 5, all traps cleared, proceed to swap to sword and auto attack the guardian to death

Inb4 april fools.

+1

And also why is everyone taking this at face value? First off – Source? Second off, there have been many things datamined which haven’t made it into the game.

source is that_shaman

the class that was suppose to be THE frontline character has now after 3 years, become possibly the worst melee class in the game.

try to melee vs a engie? certain death
try to melee vs a revanant? certain death
try to melee a ranger with a HoT pet? certain death
try to melee a necro? lolgoodjoke certain death

its time for the dev in charge of GUARDIAN to wake up and realize how much trouble the class actually is in in terms of pvp, after 3 years, no we are not “still in a good spot”. All the trap buffs or longbow buffs in the world cannot cover up the fact that the core class has fallen severely behind.

oh and Anet still refuses to give the class a passive speed boost trait because we’re “suppose” to stay in the thick of the action…lol, a guardian that jumps in the action to do anything other than a JI trap bomb combo nowadays is dead within 3 secs of popping RF and Shield of Courage.

they only meant that a team of 5 full solo ques won’t face a team of 5 man premade

you as a solo que can still face 4 man premades, or face a 5 man premade if a duo que or triple que is in your party.

hope to god these don’t make it to PvP

the endless amount of summons the current iteration of necros spawns without even speccing as a MM needs to be the first to be on the hit list on their eventual nerf imo.

anet toned down traps/aura visual clutter? 40 shambling horrors packed onto a mid fight is WAAY worse in terms of clutter, not to mention its rewarding mindless spammy game play.

Its hilarious you think Anet is personally monitoring your games to manually give you 3 necros on your tier advancement games.

1) Started last Tuesday
2) Ruby Tier 2
3) Above 50%
4) Advancing, but taking a small break and not playing as many games compared to last week
5) No more than 4-5 at the longest
6) Yes

Eater of Peeps.9062:

I spend 10 hrs a day trying to grind out of the emerald tier the pro leagues all sank me to that first day, when I was also playing for about 12 hrs. Nice the pros are getting backpieces (which, incidentally, I am not covetous of, I don’t even want one), and now exchange warm wishes and gloat about it.

However, the pros all got their organized victories off the backs of players like me. It would have been nice if someone would have warned me that 1st day that a bunch of pro teams, organized and coordinated pro leagues on ts w/set stacked builds, were going to stomp and trounce their way thru innocent, ignorant players like me who, as usual, pushed the solo q hot join button that first day and got teamed with teams composed of other randoms for whom it was literally impossible to coordinate or communicate with. Hardly a level playing field.

While I can appreciate the pros all had an agenda, and your own goals/feats and esports concerns that you felt were significantly more important than my stupid little hardcore casual player interests, I might remind you all now, that I am stuck at emerald, where you all drove me down to that first day, and I am now stuck forever because of the mmr coding (unless I get organized help from 2 or more pre-made “teammates”) ankitten ow playing 10 hrs a day, literally against ambers who do not know how to pvp at all. All I do now in pvp is try to teach people strategy, all day long, in the hopes I can get a random team that will win one. Not gonna happen. And the toxic responses from the high scorers of the lost matches (you know, players who do the most damage but never cap, etc) is nothing less than soul draining. So usually, after about 4 hours, I just stop talking altogether and give up and ride the magic loss wave endlessly around in a loop.

My play experience has been ruined. Hope the backpiece is worth it. Just sayin – you might want to think about what you all are doing, and at what cost to others. Why did not a single elite player warn solo players that first day to not push that solo hotjoin button that first day as the pro leagues blew thru the system on their way to their playing field, as the consequences of doing so has ruined my entire ranked spvp gameplay forever.

But yah, hey Marvin, grats to you. Want to come watch me teach newbs how to play pvp on twitch all day? Didn’t think so.

how can they possibly prevent class stacking without making ques on average 20 mins long when there are 900 necros and only 200 non necros queing together at any given time?

Eater of Peeps.9062:

How nice for you. Congratulations! I truly mean that. Sort of.

I must admit, I am somewhat conflicted. I have been contacted a lot, both by mean trolls (I know, I suck) and kind souls and also by people who understand the system is defective and punishing to solo que players. I would like to share with you my experience, which I am sure is quite a bit different that yours, as you enjoy your backpiece (which btw I don’t want myself or care about for me) and your enjoyment/confidence about your placement in the leagues.

Recently, I took the advice of many and made a free alt char on a HoT account and immediately went into spvp. In one day, I am in sapphire, caught on the winning side tide. How is this possible? How can I be a sapphire player on one account in one day on an alt char playing the same exact build as I did on day one with my main but be stuck at 1st tier emerald on my main. What’s the difference? How is this possible? Did my skill really improve dramatically in 6 days (despite the fact that I purportedly suck on my other character after nearly 3 years of pvping on it). The only difference I see is the playing field. There is a point to this post, and it is apt and on point to your posting of your victory achievement.

I would point out to every naysayer out there, the system is flawed and abusively punishing – not against skilled/non-skilled players but against losing players.

I would like to remind everyone you can lose for any reason, sometimes your fault, but sometimes totally beyond your control (lag, dc, etc) and sometimes the fault of your teammates who might be close to you in rank when first joined for whatever reason (such as they don’t play much or they advanced in seas 1 for unscrupulous reasons or whatever), but whom are unskilled or simply pvp inexperienced as to strategy, hidey holes (to avoid fire), rez skills, etc. etc. Sometimes these people think being the high scorer makes them skilled at pvp, and you can never convince them otherwise.

Believe me, as it should be patently obvious to everyone by now, I scrutinize my own play pretty harshly. If I have screwed up, I am the first to admit it and attempt to correct it. I play because I like strong competition. It is the best part of the game.

However, I would like to remind people of a few facts:

1) I play a lot. Yes a lot. I mean really a lot.

2) On day 1 I played a lot. On day 1 there were numerous factors present that day, all day, that are not so prevalent in spvp currently (and for that matter, since the day after until currently). For example – there were many people playing that day who still thought it was a good idea to lose a bunch of games since they thought, since they hadn’t bothered to read patch notes or forums, that it was still a good idea for them to not play as much as would normally be expected in a true competition, like as in afk or faux type play which was somewhat prevalent in seas 1.

Another example – many people solo qued that first day, including myself, and we were often matched in teams consisting of all other solo players or some duos, many of whom, while presumably good or average players, may not have been playing meta builds or may have been weaker classes (mes, war, etc) and all of whom were definitely not on ts. Unfortunately these random solo teams were inexplicably pitted against 4 man pre-made teams from the pro-leagues with set/gimmicky op builds, ts, rerolls and stomp tactics. Many of these games ended in 500 to 20 losses etc.

Because I played a lot that day, I encountered it a lot that day. What is to be done in that situation? What should I have done differently against a premade team on ts w/ coordinated builds? Especially when most of us were surprised that was being allowed. Were these pro players better? I honestly cannot say – presumably because we got trounced I would assume so. But honestly, how would I know for sure? It was hardly fair. We were hardly on a level playing field. No, not because of skill (though I presume they are all better), but because we were not coordinated. We were not on ts. We did not have set builds with set strategic coordinated pounce tactics. So consequently, as much as I would like to listen to the elite pvpers, it was off of my back that they breezed thru the first day of pvp and rose in ranks quickly.

By contrast, in addition to being matched w/ potentially less skilled players, the fact that many of us got trounced that day by pros, which was intended because seas 2 was designed to push the pros to the top quickly and reduce their wait times for matches and to quickly get a little bigger pool of potential players for them in diamond or up, it was done at my expense, and the expense of others like me. My mmr was driven into the ground, and rapidly. Was it my fault? Am I a bad player? I don’t even know anymore. I thought I was good. Now I am at the bottom because my mmr was tanked at the end of day one.

3) Once your mmr slips below a magic number (presumably 49% win/loss which is probably a losing streak of about 20 games give or take) the coding mechanisms kick in. The fallacy here is that the software coding actually takes into account certain variables to determine your individual skill. But that is not the case. The only thing it takes into account is win/lose. You’re either a winner or a loser. If a loser, and loser enough (for whatever reason) you will get stuck. If a winner, you will win, until finally you plateau, and you begin to lose, and then you are a loser, and then you get stuck. The sad fact is, many people who were eager to play the first day, who played a lot, were subjected to play that is not present in the matchups today. The pros are already out of there. And they are out of there because of me and others like me. Their wins are represented by my losses. These are pros on coordinated teams with ts. Why didn’t someone warn me not to press the hotjoin/solo q button that first day? Why didn’t someone warn me that if I did that, the one game I love, and the one activity I loved the best in the game, would be ruined for me forever.

4) Once you have lost enough games, you will keep getting matched with poorer and poorer players. Since I did a tremendous amount of playing that first day, I kept encountering numerous variables that had nothing to do with my skill. Try as I might, and play as hard as I might, I couldn’t convince people to not go afk, I couldn’t control lag, I couldn’t beg pro leagues to not stomp us. Is it my fault? Everyone keeps telling me it is. I get it, I suck. In any event, I made it to emerald, but couldn’t make it past that because of an unfortunate losing streak. Now, because the deck is stacked against me, since the coding intends for me to lose 66% of the time, and since I am paired with poor or new players, I am forced to play in a continuous loop of losses with a couple of spikes of wins.

5) One person, no matter how skilled, cannot carry a whole team. One person, no matter how skilled, cannot coordinate with random people to effectuate strategy, especially if against legendaries on ts.

6) Contrary to what so many people assert and believe, your mmr is not calculated based on your skill. It is only based, for you, on your wins/losses experienced by your entire team. Does it mean if you lost a game, or a whole series of games, that you lost because of you? Possibly. Does it always mean that? Possibly. However, equally possible is the fact that you yourself experienced a loss which might have been due to player #3 one game, player #4 the next game, pro elite opposition next game, afker next game, lag or dc next game, your fault next game, close game/good game next game which you lose, player #2’s fault next game, etc. You get the point. Its your win/loss ratio that is being evaluated and only that. It is not your personal skill, kitten many people have suggested and insist (presumably because they are still riding the win wave).

7) Teams in sapphire or ruby do not want to “carry” me to a win to raise my mmr. They do not want to jeopardize their mmr or have a loss. Perhaps there is a kind pro team of 4 willing to do this for me, especially since they blitzed thru day 1 lower tiers off of my back (and the backs of my teammates). Most of my teammates have quit. I am still hanging in, tho I am feeling very demoralized and sad that I have lost a game and activity I love, and if these elite players are so confident and happy with their skills and play, I would really appreciate it if they would step up to the plate and offer to help me out. What could it hurt them? They have already gotten where they want to be because of people like me. Where is their conscience? Where is their benevolence?

So that is why I think my experience may have been different from many others. I know that quite a few hardcore players that were playing that first day quit the game in disgust. I watched some guy in Lions Arch giving all of his stuff away. I will probably go out the same way, though people are telling me to hang in, to play on my alt, and to wait it out until seas 3, when hopefully I wont continue to be penalized for what has happened. As it now stands, I will never claw my way out of emerald 1st tier, earned that first day and on which I suffered my losing streak which brought me below 49%. I have since played the same meta reaper/meta rev/dh builds for 6 days straight for 10 hrs or more a day, and without help, it cannot be done. Am I that poor a player? Is anyone this bad a player? I am currently probably at around 200 games lost and about 20 wins (about a 10% win rate, which appears to be pretty equivalent to most of those in the “loss” cycle.) My alt would suggest otherwise. My experiences thus far with playing with others would suggest not (many I have played with or against have been quite supportive of my skill and have told me I am a good player, and I have not solicited their input).

So decide for yourself whatever you want to think, just as I am grappling with my decision whether to quit gw after 14 yrs or not. In the meantime, I welcome any top tier players to help me out. That is my point here. I welcome the invitation to “carry” me up and out of 1st tier emerald. You just might find out, I am really not that bad. Or perhaps I will find I am. Either way, I don’t see it as a risk to anyone, just a small investiture of some time and some kindness.

Thank you for considering it. And grats on your wins/achievements.

you don’t say?

more solo queue people need to learn to love Temple, great map for roaming/rotating.

can confirm, was just in a game with the guardian in question (along with his ranger buddy)

100% hacking.

was on forest, dude teleports to mid from spawn, teleports when downed to res himself (not search and rescue, this guy was teleporting from mid node to far while invisible in his downstate), teleports from 1 node to another to spike.

Malchior.5732:

If it’s a problem, touch the application, not the actual condition.

Realize that it’s only when it’s spammed by specific classes that it’s such a big problem.
Nerf Chill and you nerf everyone instead of just resolving the main culprit.

I’m in favor of toning down both its ease of application from certain classes and reworking its CD increase.

alacrity was nerfed from 66% to 33%, no reason why chill is 100% stronger than alcrity when it also comes with a 66% movement speed debuff.

Eater of Peeps.9062:

I got rank 12 by doing pvp in RA – solo que – totally random – the hard way. NO ts.

lol you meant rank 12 gladiator?

I thought you meant rank 12 HA/Tombs for a sec.

lol RA is not even real pvp

Dril.2495:

I’ve been playing the pretty standard meditrapper build with rune of the traveler and paladin amulet. So far going really well. Currently swapping out test of faith for CoP (condi->boons) when against necro’s to help manage those (which it really does, makes the matchup very doable especially in bigger teamfights)

Currently sapphire with only having been able to play a few hours each day the past 3 days. Feels like i can impact the fights, outplay potential is there.

A good engi/druid still seem a pain in the kitten to 1v1 but even then we have plenty of tools to stay alive for a while (untill some1 helps), and 2v1 a DH provides soo much that you can always kill them pretty quickly. Otherwise running away works too!

Overal pretty satisfied with our current position in pvp.

Smite condition is better than CoP when facing necros, less boons for them to re-corrupt.

Reapers present a problem, but that’s everyone’s problem as well, not just us. Hunter’s determination will be the must carry trait this season until Anet nerfs reapers

But other than that, with the nerf to bunker ele and bunker mes, I’ve been having more success this season thus far than last season.

Paladin amulet with Scrapper runes (the build i posted several weeks ago) have been performing pretty well.

i believe there is a thread on reddit about this already, no dev response

(right below the dev responded thread on Dry Top creature spawns)

Eater of Peeps.9062:

I’ve read all the posts here. I am having issues with what is said, and the new system. Last season, all people did was deliberately throw matches, deliberately losing, so they could lower mmr, only to then pair with their guildies or friends, and then blast thru poor teams and soar to the top in a winning blitz. I was a recipient of the endless games of afkers and endless dcer’s and endless stand outside the cap zone, barely throw a skill every 1 min, etc. etc. It got really infuriating. People were so INCREDIBLY toxic. I reported obvious people endlessly, and in most instances kindly, until they started gross abuse, then I was rude back.

I saw no change in the system. Nice, constructive people encouraged me to hang on to Seas. 2. I have always solo qued. People hate me, cuz I call them out for their obvious match manipulation, and you would too if u were a good player, solo queing 100% of the time, and being forced to be a recipient of match manipulation and abuse ENDLESSLY.

So I made it to ruby thru sheer determination, and was 2 pips away from diamond, on the last 2 days of the season, when the near the end of the season, ppl starting throwing ALOT of matches again to try to tier up/level up just before the end. I went down to the last tier of ruby. I hung in there, my mmr was about 49%.

So I start new, solo q again. KK I get it, Im going against diamonds w/ their diamond friends in pairs, etc., and Im w/ some stray noobs, some good, some avg. some w/e. However, the same thing starts happening. I start experiencing people throwing matches/loses, cuz they haven’t read patch notes and don’t know it wont work this time around (I say hallelulah, rt? – about the patch rt?). I tell them not to do it, that it isn’t smart = they tell me to – well, u know. More toxic. More LOL/Lord of the Flies abuse. I shut up and play and play and play. I played primarily meta guardian and meta reaper.

I was rank 12 pvp in Gw 1 earned the hard way in random arena solo que, and max title on all other pvp arenas offered in gw1. I have played gw1 and 2 since beta both. People know me, people hate me. But I am silent except when people espouse religion, politics, or they match manipulate, hack or otherwise abuse the system.

I love to play GW. I play it constantly. I am an avid pvper and wvw and pveer. I am a good player. I love the game, and just wish people would play it fair, as it was intended. You know – actually play, not manipulate/hack/afk/ etc (which in my old school book is the equivalent of cheating – tho I know people like to split hairs about this topic).

Anyways, my point is this. I am now caught in a death spiral. I have lost 65 games in a row basically (an occasional win here and there). I am kind when I play. I offered advice on smart strategy (they never take it – they do what they want) and I am at the absolute BOTTOM of the barrel of players. I feel caught in the Twilight zone and know of NO WAY OUT/UP! I do not join teams. I solo que. I hate ts.

Is there any NON TOXIC advice people can offer (Ive heard every piece of toxic filth a person can hear on gw and in real life – so save it for someone else if ur just gonna post a nasty reply) to help me up into the higher ranks where the people are better.
Oh, also, I am consistently the highest scorer in the game (yes, I know high score does not necessarily mean squat in pvp), but I think it is illustrative of the fact that I am doing more of the right things/playing better than my teammates.

Can anyone offer suggestions, because I don’t think Im a bad or mediocre or even an average player, yet I just can get out of the dregs. Literally, in some games, I am the only one playing. Cant win a game by yourself. What to do?

Please be nice. Please tell me if theres something Im doing wrong. And if all you have to say, even in a nice way, is that I am a sucky player, please just don’t say it. I don’t want to be told to go to pve to practice one more time (and no, I don’t think when people say that it is true, I think they are just trolling/mad/mean) so save your breath and time and mine cuz its just gonna roll off a duck’s back.

I am actually looking for constructive advice. Is there a way to solve this as a solo qu’er or am I relegated to the land of the bottom feeders forever?

how exactly did you get rank 12 in GW1 if you hate ts? just iway’d the entire way?

the damage from deathly chill aside, lets discuss the condition itself

-66% movement speed
66% increase cooldown reduction

its easily the most devastating control condition in the game

with how easy it is to apply it now from certain classes, time to look into toning it down a bit?

its impossible to enforce no class stacking when 80% of the pug pvp population plays 1 of 2 classes.

um, welcome to 3 years ago?

The next batch of legendary weapons to be released?

Or 50 new glider skins in the gemstore

being rank 20, you’re still horribly inexperienced, losing a lot is to be expected at the start of season.

Andy.9137:

15% on deathly chill isn’t enough

its not even a straight 15% damage nerf, the base damage is untouched, 15% only on the modifier.

well unless you’re running into 4-5 man premades every game, the common denominator in you losing all those games in a row is you.

you’re not getting matched against ESL players because you’re in the same MMR tier as them, right now you’re simply getting matched against them before they’re within your pip range and farming you.

wait a couple of days until the players currently farming you advance pass the point where they can be matched against you and then you’ll see better matches.
