Guild Wars 2

While I appreciate the cutesy clouds and terrible graphics are supposed to trigger a nostalgic response from me and make this new content fun, I can really only say 1 thing..

If I wanted to play a mario, I’d be playing mario.

I want to play Guild wars 2. Please spend your resources on content for that game.

I want to play Mario, and clearly my needs are greater than those of any minority or majority group, so therefore ANet will be contributing MORE resources into making the game more like Mario. Expect to be grabbing coins and munching mushrooms from now on.

I would greatly appreciate the inclusion of mushrooms.

When someone makes a popular console IRL they don’t make all the people return it at end of the month. So why should this Asuran video game/virtual reality console be like that? :P

Lets see, what did they mention in the interview? Improved mobility to make us the fastest again. Improvements to condition Thieves to make them more viable (they nerfed it tho o.o). Improvements to Pistols and our weaker weapon sets in general. More methods of Boon removal. The inclusion of a method to apply Burning condition… Those were some of the buffs they mentioned they might do. None of it happened yet, and we’re even more broken now. The intended stealth nerf didn’t happen either with the last minute change.

oh yeah and some fix on our Conditions ? its impossible nowdays to stack it above 6 everyone i mean EVERYONE running bunker builds just constantly Removing all my conditions in secs and overheal the dmg it done.

It’s not just a Thief related problem.

What he means is other classes can stack bleeds better. My Warrior can land 25 stacks in 1 button press. And when people can spam removal that just makes it all the more worse.

Cool Vid.

I do not understand the C&D hate myself. It’s a class mechanic, it works, and because others cry about it your a Noob? If people want to use a class mechanic let them and keep the comments to yourself.

Sad thing is how hard it hurts when you actually run into someone who understands the mechanics. I bumped into an Elementalist in WvW who was a fricken GOD at dodging every single CnD I tried as well as using CC spam, making it impossible for me to burst him down. The fight went on for like 5-10mins till I saw a group of redz coming our way and took off.

Came up with these – https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/Thief-Off-hand-Sword-Ideas/first#post1741931

Although honestly I want one-hand only options and more types of weapon, more than OH sword.

It wouldn’t work because of lack of stats/sigil. Unless they add special “2handed” daggers or gave us Focus offhand since it’s barely a weapon. Would be pretty cool though to fight like Alibaba. http://bickazer.tumblr.com/post/34048026515/magi-episode-3-alibaba-vs-jamil 1 dagger, other hand behind back or for 2handed dagger attacks.
He’d make a good Thief.

I just realized her other weapon set is a Rifle. ;/

I actually feel sorry for other MMO’s. I just don’t know how they can compete with GW2.

Oo I duuno..Maybe they add actual legitimate content and not juvenile fluff?

Holiday events are a major part of Guild Wars 1-2.

I pretty much combed the entire area when I first entered it so I found the cloud.
Was wondering what it was for, now I know. It probably got more grumpy when I was jumping on it’s head.

I enjoyed the lack of RNG.
I had a hard time deciding which of the three I liked most. :x

Chuo.4238:

So is the SAB going away after April 1?

I hope not…

Its staying entire month unless they decide to make it permanent. .-.

stayBlind.7849:

This should be the actual game considering it has less bugs and is much more fun.

Asura technology FTW I guess.

MossyStump.9461:

Oh lord, I hadn’t seen this until now. 10/10 would watch again!

I did actually. Watched it 3 times before actually going to Rata Sum to play it.

No, no, that’s fine. I’d be too scared to drown the poor little things in the Mystic Forge. c.c

The glow is kinda odd. Wouldn’t mind it removed either. Guess they wanted them to look like they just popped outa the television but meh. I’ll still love them though.

MrForz.1953:

The problem is that the Thief isn’t an assassin by default, more of a duelist actually, I’d prefer having more creative ways to fight and adapt rather than a set of weapons that give you the opportunity to clone whatever assassin or ninja you’re drooling at.

The only difference between GW1 Assassin and Thief is Steal ( even though it’s a glorified shadowstep ) and pure stealth invisibility. ;/ Guns are new in general, Assassin would use it too if it existed.

That and the lack of Scythe, Longbow and Hammer weapons that Assassins could use well~ and Sword actually being viable to Thief.

Not only is it awesome in general, but it’s pretty cool having a dungeon you can explore and mess around in solo.

Yeah, I really loved the retro style commercial. Great job on it.

Josh Foreman.8250:

For World 2 I absolutely want to make rifle and dagger skins.

Super Daggers?!!!!!!!!!@#!

WTB Dagger. Guess they hate Dagger Thief tho. .-. They coulda just shrunk the Sword and re-positioned it.

Noktern.1395:

im thinking of Claw-like / Katar weapons , looks kitten, more assassin-like

Is why I loved Assassins so much in Diablo 2. Claws are cool in Path of Exile too, and their “Assassin” class can make a very viable Claw/Shield build. Just looks cool. Games, especially MMOs often neglect Hand2Hand weapons all the time though. GW1 did have a Brass Knuckle dagger skin at least.

Darthaemos.6370:

I’d like to think that this last Time Warp nerf was really ANET’s early April Fool’s joke. It’ll hotfixed to normal on April 2nd.

Hope the last minute stealth nerf/break was an April Fools as well.

2nd one looks like Cursed Shore. Don’t remember any dragons lying around though other than good old Kralkatorrik, but he’s probably bigger than the island.

They had an early Easter event by putting bunny ears on sale.

Buy everyone commander title until Lion’s Arch’s map is blue’d out.

5 lives from one coin is a lot. Who knows, it could be super easy, like the Christmas JP.

Or the entire Super Adventure Box could be an April Fools joke and it wont even exist and the coins turn out to be chocolate.

I got a rare today (and 1 ecto from it) from a JP, usually only get lower, or rare orbs. The Continue Coins were a nice little trick to get us to do them as I’ve been completing all the ones I haven’t done in last few days. So far I have 10 Continue Coins, not sure how many JP I did total… Maybe 30-40 I felt like a been missing a major part of game content cuz some of these are pretty cool areas. If you wanna be lazy you could do the SE Southsun JP (god that JP is a joke, it’s so easy/short) or the Queensdale one on all your characters. Morgan’s Spiral is a personal easy one I do the most but seems lotta ppl have trouble with it. Wayfarer Foothills is simple/fast with stability.

My music hasn’t changed.

Best suggesting would be towards Anet in adding Assassin armor from Cantha. ;/

andyMak.6985:

The problem: +1sec debuff

The solution: extra auto attack that takes 3-4s to cast and hits like a skill that uses inititive and removes a boon and adds poison damage.

Sounds fair. It should also knockdown stealth you and add confusion to the enemy

Or they can just remove the +1 second and add it to when stealth wears off w/o attacking.

Einlanzer.1627:

I’m not totally closed minded to the idea an OH Sword, but there are other things I’d like to see more:

In particular- new weapons altogether (claws, whips, etc.) as well as the option to wield nothing in your offhand. I actually can’t stand how the game forces you to dual wield.

/sigh. Me too, dude.
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/thief/Thief-Dual-Claw-Weapon-Preview/first#post1482803

Actually wish we could use shields too, cuz it looked cool in final fantasy when their Thieves did it. XD Thief is a pretty closed minded class for it’s name in GW2. Annoys me when MMOs throw in an Assassin type class and generally just make them Dagger only or Sword too. It’s just so dull and unimaginative. At least we get Pistols this time but really a THIEF should be picking up any type of weapon he wants to and use it.

Needs to be changed for Thief.

I want that Legendary Pistol.

Looks like she used Basilisk Venom too.

HELLruler.4820:

Physically saying, swords are heavier than daggers, and since most people have a dominant side, generally the right one, going D/S would be an idiot decision, you wouldn’t be able to hold and use it well

But talking about other weapons, I’d like to see more weapons for thieves

A sword in off-hand in reality would be for defensive or counter reasons~ doesn’t really matter how heavy it is compared to the dagger. Plenty of games allow dagger/shield as well, and the shield is far heavier. Maybe it’d give us counter/block type skills (preferably ones you can channel while moving). Then there’s dual sword~ a luxury warrior gets instead of thief. Would of been nice for a cool multistrike dual skill that doesn’t do crap dmg.

Something strange happened. :o

I hope there’s a cool dagger skin.

I rather have the revealed from not attacking as well, I rarely ever used CnD stealth spam anyways, I always attacked from stealth before it wore. Seriously, the original intended nerf actually made sense and I was ready to cope with it. This last minute one doesn’t make sense.

PlagueParade.7942:

0 out of 100 tries. Got endless mystery tonic beast and furniture on the other hand, though I’d much rather have gotten just one token.

I’d love that furniture tonic, lol. Sad failing ticket out of 100 tho.

Ohh I see. Does look familiar… Megaman came to mind at first~

You were being rude to someone who was most likely already frustrated at the worlds most annoying dungeon, which doesn’t do any good for anyone. :/

I enjoy snakes. I remember the Snake Tonic too. was awesome and wiggly.

What Super Monkey? .-.

It’s already back up.

Game dieded. Must of been hidden killer’s 150% crit chance breaking it.

It was a much needed random update to fix a gamebreaking bug.

google.3709:

They needed to fix a thief trait that allows them to kill us faster.. when so many classes are still buggy from launch.. smh

Including Thief.

150% crit chance ftw.

They will nerf mug and accidently break it, causing steal to nolonger work if you have it. They’ll eventually nerf cloak and dagger damage and add reveal to it anyways, and at the same time break it, causing stealth to sometimes not trigger. Another shortbow dmg nerf as well which will break infiltrator arrow to keep teleporting you into the ground where you fall to your death in an empty void.

You explain the exact reason I hate this nerf and woulda preferred the original planned nerf instead if I had a choice. The new rotation is tedious enough to break any amount of fun the backstab build provided. What’s the alternative for DPS though? There really isn’t one that can match it or come close. I’m not even full GC as I use soldier too and add some team support as well. I was very happy with my all-around build and now it’s a mess.
Not to mention Hidden Killer is gone too for who knows how long.

Are you saying the reveal nerf destroyed your PvE thief or is it the bugged HK trait? Which one is it?

Both.

There’s really not much ‘outside the box’ when it comes to DPS; in PvE specifically.
Maybe Anet just wants us to main Shortbow or something.

/facepalm. You need stealth to steal TVs without getting caught.
