Guild Wars 2

For now I runing this build http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVEQJARWlsApZoFDxVI8rNx/Ql1RYdAMA151XwKsBA-TFSFAB0pJAgLBAO7PgnOAKV/5KlgPp8L5nAApAmUaE-w in 10-15 guild raid. But if Amplified wrath was more accessible I would make more interesting build…
2700 condition damage with 25 might stacks
burning 800-1000 per tick
bleed 200-300 per tick
torment 200-300 per tick
retalation 200-500 in different situations

BlackIsleDragon.7516:

I want to level my Guardian sometime soon. Anyone have a suggestion as to the best way to level currently, other than crafting? I have a bunch of boosters and still have 8 birthday boosters.

EOTM from 20 to 80 for 2 days

Animosity.5968:

Side note of Could do Cleric/Sentinel Gear and Solider Accessories to up my HP into the 18.5k range. Also do you think 64% boon duration is suitable? Also I was thinking about Merciful intervention, is that a bad thing to think about lol?

If you wanna support – better to go this http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVAQNApeWlsApVo1CxZI0ENRCRl5MEgY/BtQKcZA0AA-T1BDABHqEsp9H0S5Hlq/MxpAAgnAgK6DIFgTjBA-w

Even with new trait and 2000 condition damage I don`t feel retalation like “condition”. And if you go something like 6\6\x\x\x with guardian you don`t have any predicition to survive.

For my opinion, better that this trait move to Radiance grandmaster.
Radiance traits line has much better synergy with condition damage and burning skills.
What do you think?

Very simple suggestion. For example, if you have legendary greatsword (twilight\sunrise\eternity) you can use any skin from your wardrobe to this legendary for free…any time.
Legendaries must have more cool stuff…not only skin…

Old, good topic…

wanna to try this crazy condi build on WvW http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVAQJARWlsApZo9CxYI8DNR8Ql9Y0izY1BQD8oXNDA-TxBGABAcJAmTXQkq/47+D8pEkJlfG/EAIFwkSjA-e

Make it synergy with “on block” traits can be a good change too…

Sword is solid guardian weapon on sPvP but one of the worst in WvW. Given it synergy with “on block” traits will not ruin it balance on sPvP, but make it better in others situations.

Note from game:
Block ranged attacks while casting magical projectiles.

Note from wiki:
1. Movement interrupts channeling.
2. Projectiles aimed at the player are absorbed, and not actually blocked. As such, on-block traits such as Might of the Protector do not trigger.
It can be a great skill if Anet change position 1 and 2. Use it on move, block range attacks and trigger with many guardians “on block traits” – would be awesome.

1. Symbols to all main hand weapons(sword. scepter)
2. Trait to make spirit weapons immune to damage
3. Improve shield abilities or traits
4. Long Bow to Guardian
5. Trait to make signets share their “active” with allies.

Because of:
1. Long CD – 40 sec
2. Cause no damage
3. Absorb projectiles works bad(sometimes not work, really), actually when this ability reflect projectiles was much better.

Also trait “Honorable shield” need some love. In my opinion would be very nice if this trait merge with “Communal defence” or “Defenders`s flame” or move from Master traits to Adept(warrior style) or give some condition to shield abilites…may be weakness to foes…
Thumbs up If you like it!

Dear Anet, you have taught people to constant updates (every two weeks). And now for two months not released a single. Last time we had some content at March 4. So, during ESO already launched and Wildstar bring open beta…
…I say that in GW2 there are nothing to do for now…

Probably, some content patch will be after China release. Before you can only grind for some new or old skins…

Last time we saw a new content at March 4! Two month ago!

Please. Give. It.

Are you kidding?
2 weeks content update transformed into 2 month without it and you are happy?

Feature update is very solid and good made.
But, seriously? Last time we saw new content update at March 4… 2 months wihtout content is too much.
So, when will we see Living story season 2 or something like it?

Any good shield based build for WvW? =(

Patch was released. What are your impressions?

Flintbrow.7985:

Can my warrior drop a wall of reflection? No.
Can my warrior grant a MASSIVE stack of might on a relatively short cooldown? No.
How about installing a line at a choke that “foes cannot cross”? No way.
Learn to love the staff.

Okay. But If I want to play with another weapons? Shield + sword? or scepter?
Nobody said that guardian bad profession – guardian just boring.
Staff
11111111111 – regroup -cast 4 – 111111111 – cast 5 in enemy position – 11111111 – regroup – cast 4 – 111111111111111111111
+ 2 shouts + 1 consecration + dodge and one more dodge!

Wanna to UP this thread for after patch discussion!
Just change my main from guardian to warrior and I want to build shield + sword\axe gameplay. Going to kinight + soldier stats(30% crit chance with food). If someone can give me a good advice for solid build…?)

KrazyKorean.7059:

I’m sure this has been covered before, but I have been unable to find the older threads with the forum search function.

Downed states in WvW -

This is something that needs to be removed altogether from WvW. It removes the ability of smaller groups to effectively engage and whittle down larger sized zergs in the field. It is impossible for a small team to beat a zerg through attrition and superior gameplay if the zerg can simply revive their players in seconds. Less options means less gameplay and that forces many players to adopt a common strategy (zerging). If a revive mechanic needs to stay in the game, it should at least (the very least) be limited to work outside of combat and take a substantial amount of time to do.

Conclusion -

WvW players effectiveness outside of a zerg is increased. Happiness abounds.

All we need is DELETE RALLY from game or change rally mechanic(you can`t rally from killing another player). SIMPLE!!!

Tzao.4892:

Very excited! I can’t wait to transfer my twilight and ascended equipments to my warrior! Thank you very much Anet!

HA-HA! I will do the same today. FSP and Twilight waiting for new master…warrior master!

So many ppl have dual legendaries like legendary dagger or 2 same legendary at different characters. I think that people put a lot of effort for the skin, and not for the sake of changing attributes. So it would be fare to make such change.

Wanna this too!

it’s actually quite fun on my end to see them

~ what i usually do when they’re on

me: “pssst Anet dev (i actually call them by their name instead of anet dev), give me super powers so i can fly”
them: “no”
me: " darn"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

me: " pssst, Anet dev… give me a hug"
them: “hugs”
me: “oh yeah”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

me: “pssst, Anet dev. let me get a peak of that dev menu so i can give a champ 10x my actual damage so i can feel like a super hero woman”
them: “no”
me: “darn”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

me: “pssst, Anet dev – will there be sab this year?”
them: “hey look, shadow behemoth is up”
me: “hmm…. and darn”

haha! That is about how it goes when I ever I run with my tag up.

By and large, the community is pretty darn nice to me when I’m flying the colors. I had the best time running with groups in the Tower of Nightmares and other big events. I’ve loved when I’m hanging out crafting, and folks come chat with me. I like just doing random hearts, jumping puzzles, and such.

Only rarely have I received a not as friendly reception. This is especially when I like to talk to players. I listen. I take notes. This is a very passionate community and I absolutely enjoy playing with everyone. After all, I was a part of the community before I started working here. My home server is truly my home server!

More like “pssst Anet, get back to fixing ranger and stop playing crappy warrior signet builds.”

Ha-ha, I knew it! Most of Devs play for warrior that why they so OP (-_-)

Oh crap…toooo sloooooooow WvW features update…

Quetzalcoatl.7218:

Is this good for pvp & WvW in med to high settings at 1366 × 768? And what would be my average fps? Thanks in advance guys

i3 4130 3.4ghz
GTX 750 Ti 2gb
8gb ram kingston 1333 mhz (2×4gb ram)
Asus H81M – C

Oh man, just get few $ more and buy i5 2\3xxx(without K) and motherboard with b75 chipset. Good luck to you!

Relentliss.2170:

Boring. I am not sure how but Anet seems to make the class more boring with every patch.

I am feeling same – playing as guardian become boring!

Ezeriel.9574:

I was away for seven months (college) and upon coming back to GW2 I find it all massively disappointing….

IMO all guard builds should have empowering might and altruistic healing, and having those two skills basically kills every build you could want…

how are people supposed to spec 30-30-0-0-30 for a condition build?

why is permeating wrath an aoe around the guardian, instead of around your target.. would it be too OP for guards to have a ranged aoe? Heaven forbid someone may actually use a scepter…

we should all just roll banner warriors, and be done with it…

…30 points just to give your teammates battle presence, so lame.

Yeah…nothing change from game launch =((

This will not help. Only people who created and worked with Guild wars 2 Engine can make some improvents if they would work kitten it. But this will never happen before Guild wars 3 or something miracle…

Cosmetics change will not help. If Anet really want to change situation in right way they must work on ENGINE. There are too many “draw calls” …

Just add into BLTC item that change stat combination(one time ability). Most of people will be very greatful.

I decided that instead of waiting for a miracle better start gearing my warrior. Good that I can switch my legendaries to warrior after 15 april (-_-).

I am really disappoinment about upcoming changes to guardian…
As always we don`t have any changes for Spirit weapons, shield, sword, torch…
May be we have not bad changes for condition build but my opinion that condition build based only in one condition is meh…

So what are you thinking guys?
Are you satisfied? =)
Or you disappoinment? =(

Can any Dev answer my question?

So does this “feature only” patch that all talks about bring some good changes to “skill lag” problem or not?

Wetpaw.3487:

I came to this game w/a gaming community of around forty players, and was the last one playing after around six months into the game.

For many of us we were not GW1 players, and speaking for myself knew nothing of GW lore, or even had much of an interest in PvE.

A general lack of attention from Anet as they focused on the easy money maker, Living Story, that is directly tied to the gem store and the interests of those PvE players.

Living story is not to bad. The most problem seems that most of Anet employee works only on Living stroy only on PvE.

Omaris Mortuus Est.2738:

Just an observation: Devon closed the EOTM CDI 3 days ago, in the last 3 days Chris has made 9 posts in his Fractals CDI, including one post to inform fractal players he’s up to date with the posts and thereby assuring them he has read them.

What assurances did we get from Devon? “Sorry I thought there wasnt much else to talk about, so I popped to the pub for 8 days, I think I deserve it for all the hard work I’ve done.” and this was after a 8 day hiatus from the CDI!

So officially the EOTM CDI closed 3 days ago, though really it closed 17 days ago, just 4 days after it started.
But I think the real question is, did it even start? Especially when comparing it to the Fractals CDI which began 21 days ago just like the EOTM, but has been actively seen posts by Chris up to just 4 hours ago! Fractals gets 21 days attention, WvW barely gets 4 days, and EOTM isnt even WVW!!!

I say we need answers, but we all know we wont get any!

It is about what we are talking here. Anet pay too much attention about PvE all the year. But there are many customers who wants WvW new content…not freaking EOTM map for PvE farm and grind – we want WvW content!

Deathmond.7328:

There are such type of suggestion in last CDI but seems Anet doesn`t want to go for “one big server” and “red vs blue vs green” that works well at EOTM and may be in ESO. I think this would be good dessision for “dead” servers and adress question about “pride” from server to guild.

It works in ESO because each faction is distinct and you do the story associated with the faction so you should identify with it more. EOTM is only a colour, how do you identify with that.

I identify myself only with my guild in WvW. If I play in another time I play with commander at the map. Problem that you are describing only about pugs but pugs don`t need indentify because that pugs…

Sanduskel.1850:

The balance problems in wvw, particularly class balance problems, have been dismissed for too long. I spoke to two anet employees, and the attitude of many at anet is that players don’t understand the game. when you start to blame the customer, things are bad.

Gamers community understand better how to play any class and it synergy with talents and other classes…it is apriori for any game. If ANet employees think in another way is their fatal flaw.

Xillllix.3485:

Monsteratic.5487:

Its more on the lines the players are killing wvw. Games that are RvRvR live off of players competitive ways. If the players do not have pride in there world or there realm then there is no point in RvRvR in the first places.

Agreed. There is no server identity anymore. Most (not all) wvw guilds are responsible for causing the rift between player and server identity. There are not many guilds that have actually stayed on their server from day one without transferring. Most guilds are just looking for fights rather than ppt, which is really hurting some servers as well as the community. WvW is for fighting against other servers to see who can win by PPT, not kills. I really wish Anet would make a guild arena where guilds could match up with other guilds from other servers to fight (kinda like LFG); I bet you it will reduce the amount of massive server transfers (and transfers overall) we have seen lately.

It should never have been about servers in the first place. It should have been about guilds. Everything in this game should be about guilds.

There could be 3 main alliances and a guild could only represent one of these 3 alliances. Let’s scrap the server system.

Sarsbear.3469:

Hello, I’m Sarsbear from such guilds as PAXA, SPCA, and tM, and I’m leaving this game for ESO. ESO offers balanced stealth (everyone has it and any dmg removes it), real healing (I no longer have to try to line up the end of my dodge roll to where someone is going to be in a very small radius), class balance (because “class” is more flavor than definition, and your action bar is fully customizable), no AoE limit + far fewer AoE abilities, crucial small-man pvp (flipping a camp will disable porting to that keep), no combat speed reduction (so zergs can’t catch up), and a better grouping system. Also an enormous map that you can easily get lost in. And PvE quests in the PvP zone that will funnel smaller groups of players together.

Yes, the animations/look aren’t as fluid as GW2. The targeting system is crap compared to GW2 as well (currently, haven’t browsed many add-ons that could fix this). Luckily what I care about is quality PvP, where fighting people depends on what I do, not how many others I bring.

^ Pretty much agree with all of this. Some of it I comment on in the movie below.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hc65gvg1LmM

Good video. I hope ANet will “steal” some ideas from ESO RvR…

Guardian without 1000 healing? Seems you are playing solo or too selfish.
I see only one really good choice if you wanna to be guardian – cleric + soldier\sentinel
If you wanna to play with high crit\crit damage just go and play for warrior.

Colly.4073:

Monsteratic.5487:

I don’t understand why people think it will kill wvw.

ESO won’t kill WvW, WvW is doing a nice job of killing itself.

Unfortunately the Developers of GW2 care too much about PVE and making $$ than they do about the PVP side of the game “Epic World Battles” was one of the BIG selling points of this game yet they are NOT very EPIC at all.

The skill lag is EPIC.
The bugs are EPIC.
The imbalance is EPIC
The Hacking and Exploits are EPIC.

I agree with you Colly…

Seems like people don`t believe in such type of topics anymore…
