Some thoughts and decisions about my Condition build. Please Critique!

in Necromancer

Posted by: Dibrom.6408

Dibrom.6408

Difference between 1,000 condition damage and 1,200 condition damage isn’t significant.

But, the difference between 1,000 condition damage and 2,200 condition damage (what I run standard when I swap to condition build) is significant.

Well, let me correct myself… it’s 2,148, but same difference.

1502 is the max a necro can get to without food.

Rabid is used because of the earth sigil. The 5 trait is laughable but hey it doesn’t hurt. No reason you can’t go rabid + krait/afflicted.

They’re not interested in conditions, Jon Peters said conditions builds are fine. He’s interested in buffing power builds (even at the expense of conditions).

And the BiP change is your power build quick fix. Be sure to email them a thank you.

What Is Your Fav/Least Favorite GW2 Race!?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Dibrom.6408

Dibrom.6408

Favorite: Sylvari. I have three. I love everything about them.

Least favorite: Asura. I deal with enough self-important scientists within my two majors, so I can’t stand these pompous little midgets. They don’t even do good science! The technobabble isn’t too far off from the research papers I’ve read though…

What’s the matter? Are you jealous of the Asura’s insufferable genius and cute widdle faces?

If they’re such geniuses, why does almost everything they make blow up, requiring me to save them on my Sylvari? =p I’ve had fewer accidents happen in three years of chemistry labs.

It happens to all geniuses. Remember those Lightning Elementals Tesla released in New York?

Read my post. There is a difference between copyright and trademark. And you better care what copyright.gov says because that is the US Copyright Office. I’m not sure what a better source for copyright law would be.

Names are not copyrightable. That’s right from the source. Names are trademarkable. Every name you mentioned in your post is a trademark, not a copyright.

Two related but fundamentally different rights, with different protections attached. Trademarks only protect products and services in the same field. You can’t have two tech companies by the name of “Apple”, but you could have a tech company and a grocery store with that name.

OH REALLY?!

Maybe that’s why I said they were TRADEMARKable and didn’t mention copyright in my post. Thanks for the correction. What would I do without your overwhelming intellect to guide me?

Yeah, it’s not like Apple would sue the polish grocery “a.pl”
They’re not under the same product field, it’s the LAW!

Plague Signet:
-Doesn’t take condi’s off allies, but still gives them to you.
-Breaks stun

Ok, so sure, it doesn’t have the utility of cleansing your team, but that’s ANet’s fault, which I’m sure they’ll make right.

Although there’s that bug, it can still be used to transfer all your condi’s from yourself to your enemy, then use epidemic to spread everything.

It still works as a stun break.

It doesn’t work as a stun break because you’ve already activated it to through all those copied conditions off you.

Why are people slamming me as some sort of FOV nazi?
I suggested sliders in the second post of this thread.

@bwillb.2165 (Since quote’s not working)
It’s not.

@Nepumuk.6071
I’m not defending Anet’s decision, I’m providing a rationale for it. Take that anger out on Jon Peters.

@Snoring Sleepwalker.9073
Go into a design meeting. The topics of ones I’ve been around usually are [paraphrased]:
“How can we make things simple? Our users are pretty stupid”
“That’s a lot of work for our programmers, could we do this instead?”
“It works as is, let’s not waste resources changing it when [excuse]”

@Dosvidaniya.3260
1. I do deem your FPS unplayable. I bet money so does Anet. You’re not going to convince suits (Jon Peters? I dunno) otherwise.
2. You’re breaching some arbitrary FPS number someone at Anet set.
3. While you are correct about losing the ability to play, I don’t think Anet wants to lose that ability a month within their launch.
4. See my universal software meeting above
5. The “advantage” excuse is exactly that, an excuse. If they believed that it would hurt their E-Sporting they would have locked the FOV and not made it so easily changed in windowed mode.
