Guild Wars 2

RNG actually has the potential to literally never give you what you want. Some can get it on first try, others can actually fail as many as a million attempts at it. The RNG god is a powerful god. If it doesn’t like you then there isn’t much you can do about it. No amount of tries will help you.

All staves are amazing just for the animation alone.
There’s still a lot of cool skins tho http://dulfy.net/2012/11/13/gw2-staff-skin-gallery/#18

The new Guild staff skin is probably one of the best guild skins imo. Looks like a glaive kinda. :s Unfortunately I don’t really have a class that uses staff primarily. Have a necro but prefer scepter. :< and Elementalist Staff skills are boring to me.

You should of loved GW2 sooner.

Caltrops is how Thief stack 25 Bleed in combination with DB or Sneak atk, you can also walk out of it (easier to now as well). Not sure why it needed nerfed. People don’t really use it in PvP anyways. Warrior can do 25 bleeds with 1 skill in a few short seconds tho and have huge burst DMG at the same time. (My warrior is 1h sword and the amount of power/crit dmg + cond is absolutely nuts and 10x easier to do.)

And the whole messy rotation and slower, less organized backstab DPS in both PvE and PvP is totally ruining this class for me now. Nerf needs reverted, shoulda stuck with the original nerf or not do anything at all since culling is fixed. I don’t see how this change was necessary as you can still chain stealth, which is what the crybabies complained about most.

Daendur.2357:

It is obviously a bug, and they will fix it soon.
I hope.

Shadow Protector is an obvious bug too, how long has that gone unfixed? Since beta?

Dante.1508:

Seriously guys stop wasting your money, they aren’t worth it, either way good luck with more RNG, players only take it for so long..

They can’t, it’s an illness. Gambling is addictive, which is why it’s illegal in certain places. They keep doing these gem store RNG hunts cuz they know there’re people who can’t resist insta-dumping hundreds of dollars into it. .-.

My Sylvari eats humans out of revengence for these food pyramid disasters. :<

Doggie.3184:

I really love the dagger. Too bad it requires gambling. :< Which is something I don’t enjoy. Are the skins sellable?

Account Bound sadly

lame. I woulda farmed hundreds of gold for it. Better than RNG gambling.

Or just buy it with gems like Xmas skins ;/

Maybe Mesmers should get a “Revealed” debuff too after any shatter that prevents them from making any new clones for the duration … More time for us to target and damage them.

Because you already didn’t have enough? It’s one second.

One second is a lot in pvp…

Not enough to break the entire class and every build that relies on stealth spam. It’s not as long as you think.

Of course it is not enough to break to class, but one more second of being visible is kinda bad.

Not just the being revealed part that sucks, the attack chain order is so annoying now, I can’t stand it. Waiting to interrupt the last auto attack in the 2nd dagger chain ina row continually~ it’s just no fun and slower DPS now. Fighting mobs in PvE just irritates me now. I woulda welcomed reveal after not attacking over this cuz at least I keep my offensive style.

I really love the dagger. Too bad it requires gambling. :< Which is something I don’t enjoy. Are the skins sellable?

Feel bad for people who spent tons of money specifically to do that.

Shucks, you can’t spam Backstab to deal 12K damage any more?

Brb, rerolling.

you ever could?

Now we can only do it 5 times every 30 seconds instead of 6. NERFED into oblivion! I am going to my OP Ranger… thanks Anet.

It’s actually longer than 4 second reveal if you wanna finish your second combo before CnD or interrupt your combo with the new crappy timing~ which just looks ugly.
everything feels so unorganized.

Indeed. Makes me sad. It’s all sloppy now~ the 2nd time is like in the middle of the 2nd chain. I think I woulda prefered the reveal on comming out of steal w/o attacking. Move the extra 1 second to that instead. :P 1 second reveal when stealth wears w//o attacking.

It’s a thief nerf so people can see us better, maybe?

Instead of 100% crit it’s 100% broken instead. .-.

Yeah I just checked. The buff icon doesn’t appear anymore, or change stats. It’s not a visual only bug either cuz I just backstabbed a buncha stuff and got noncrits.

Emergency patch pl0x?

WHERE are the buffs and bug fixes!? Where’s the supposed mobility buff they mentioned? Again we get nerfs with nothing positive to give us. Nerfs that also cause more bugs as well apparently. Lovely.

Nuuu My beloved trait. Say it isn’t so?

I haven’t played as much since I haven’t felt like doing any dungeons and stuff at the moment. No need to grind anymore, don’t need gold for anything, really. Was working on lvling another alt but got bored at how slow it was taking.
Started playing Fallout NV again to finish the last 2 DLCs as well. ;o Looking forward to some WvW improvements soon.

It’s the tree’s fault for not moving out the way.

I just came here to say “Nope.”

Eh, 86 gold? I opened 1.1mill karma worth of boxes and made around 12g total from selling stuff. Was still nice since I have no use for karma but you got a massive amount of pure luck if you made that much.

I never failed with mine cuz I crafted an Apothecary set before trying it.
Amazing armor, lol. Don’t do insane amounts of damage but have fun never dying.

Whatever one strays from group enough for me to jump on and kill before the rest of the enemies realize it. Lotta times I sneak into a zerg, especially a moving one and pick off the stray and finish them off before anyone can save them or kill me before I escape… As for small groups the Engi, Ranger or Warrior are usually the easiest to pick off first, in that order. Guardians and D/D Ele I usually ignore till last.

Well it’s the best MMORPG currently, as was GW1 imo. So yeah. Dunno if you could say it’s the best GAME ever played though, as Suikoden 2 holds that title still.

Considering the fact that there’ll be a time you simply don’t have a use for Laurels I guess that’s why it exists. There’s already a point you reach though where karma is useless. I’ve thrown out millions of karma on boxes and have obsidian shards rotting in my bank that I’ll probably never use. Maybe if I like a future legendary they add enough to make another one… Or if they add new uses for the Shards. Anyways yeah, it’s a waste of Laurels to buy those for that price.

Here’s some things I’d like most.

Misc;
Release of Cantha expansion.
Dozens of new Water zones added with improvements to underwater combat, including underwater versions of all class skills.
Added unique animations for Sylvari and Norn.
Added more than 100 new head/helm/hat skins hidden around Tyria and Cantha.
Multiple new hair styles for each race added to Hair style kit in gem store.
More GW1 skins imported to gem store.
Trahearne backpack and stuffed Trahearne doll weapon skins added to gem store.
Added Guild Halls.
Added Fishing profession. (doesn’t effect the 2 craft only limit)
Added Polymock and 150 Digimon to collect.
Added several new medium armor sets based on Assassin design.
Added several additional heavy armor skins that only cover 10% of your body on both genders.

PvP:
Added Team Death matches to SPVP as well as a Capture the flag-type SPVP arena based on Fort Aspenwood in GW1.

Classes:
Added Ritualist that can summon powerful Spirits to unleash special attacks and abilities. (similar to FF summoners.)

Thief: Added Claw weapons.
Added F2 skill “Throw” which randomly throws a Stone, Glass Bottle, Shuriken or Firecracker for low to moderate amounts of damage, and high entertainment.
Thieves can now use Rifles, Shields, off-hand Sword and Focus (which uses elemental related dual attacks like setting sword ablaze.)
Spike Trap damage increased by 300% to make it more physical than condition.
Shadow Protector now stacks duration like normal regeneration boons do.
Pistols pierce.

Guardian: Can now Main-hand Shields.
Added 2 handed Shields.

Ranger: Can now Tame Karkas and Bunnies.
Added Crossbows.

Necro: Added Shambling Horrors utility from GW1, lowered CD and casting time of pets and increased their HP and defense. AI nolonger derps.

Ele: Improved visual effects of water skills. Changed Freezing Gust to a giant Tsunami nuke. Comet is 10x bigger and explodes.
Can now Main-hand Focus, which reverses a lot of element mechanics, such as prioritizing damage for water and support for fire.

Warriors: Added 2 handed Axes.

Engineers: Added Shotguns.

New Legendarys including Slingshot, 2H Axe, Crossbow, Claw, 2H Shield, Shotgun, Laser Pew Pistol.

Gotta catch’em all.

Whats with all the irrelevant pictures?

There’s a lot of mini-games that are incomplete currently, scattered around the game. Polymock is the one I hope for the most though. Hope they add it eventually.

War Siren.2346:

1.) I don’t think you quite understood what I meant. I’m talking exclusive skins that drop from the dungeon.. like some form of RNG to make you keep going after that one boss over and over again, so when you get it.. you mentally hold it up like the Tri-Force triumphantly. This game lacks that a lot right now. The sense of reward in this game is non-existent almost. The Tokens aren’t worth the time.
.

The token system exists cuz RNG drops like that are frustrating and annoying and make every failed attempt feel like you made no progress at all. I wish I could buy Fractal Dagger with relics, even if it’s like 5000 relics I’d still get it sooner than I would from RNG I’m sure.
Though I’d allow it if they flooded the game with tons of RNG hat skins. .-.
Gotta have hats, bro.

They will let us play as Tequatl.

Healing Spring alone makes me love Rangers as my Thief. :P

It’s fun to splash in and keeps me clean, hydrated and healthy. <3

Dasorine.1964:

actually the AA damage tends towards even, with sword getting way more as soon as theres more than one target.

People that think sword is support/utility haven’t actually used it and people that think dagger is meant to be pure burst are blinded by their own limitations.

I carry all available weapons on me and switch often depending on situation and how bored I am at the time. Dagger more dmg. Sword more support/utility. Yeah.
Unless you wanna consider killing things faster equaling the best way to support.

Dagger does way more AA damage than sword overall, as well as with all it’s other skills. Sword is more for support and utility.

Madnek.7921:

Barock.7183:

i get alot of comments (in Spvp) that thieves should only play 1 build and that is backstab.

Backstab/HS builds can be countered quite well with condition d/d or p/d.
in my honest opinion, ppl should play the way they want to, because in the end of the day, everything can be dodged and everything can be countered.

Not really, if BS/HS uses Shadow Arts and isn’t full glass cannon. It’ll just end up a deadlock till the condition thief messes up. That’s just another of the tons of dodges and counters I guess. Problem with Thief is with newbies. Too many people don’t research anything about other classes and instead of learning counters they just complain.

Also always felt like Thief had too few skills/weapons compared to other classes too~ Feels like medium classes were designed last, ending with Thief.

It’s different with certain hair and faces. My Sylvari is pretty strong/bright blue in the dark, throughout his hair and face.

EB JP is the absolute best and most fun place to PvP in the entire game imo. The Arena does suck though, they need to add somekinda exit or better way to fight back. Or for the love of god nerf the Mesmer’s ranged throw wall from being used across cliffs. It’s so annoying. They’re the main tormentors that abuse that location.

I’ve actually ran through the Dark Room though so many times at this point that I can do it with no light~ It’s possible.

The auto attack thing made me think that it’d be cool if P/P was special and all it’s skills were dual attacks.

The pants are okay, take off the rest. :P

Meh, he makes sense. Game could just throw a popup at you saying ‘the zone is full, would you like to join overflow?’

don’t worry. the flame and frost event will most likely add a city to southsun cove as well as a giant turtle boss.

a few days ago. I like turtles and karkas.

The pet itself is your class ability. ;/ Nonstop autodamage is as instant as you can get.

Recycle.5493:

Male ranger

F1 command(attack)

“Aim for the throat!”

Do you mean; “Go for the Throat?” My Sylvari says that when I summon a Candy Corn Elemental with the toy Scepter. I thought it was a pun attached to the weapon and not an actual Sylvari line. ;x Guess it just matched really well then. :P

We don’t deserve early patch notes.

Doggie.3184:

We have the least amount of weapon skills in game, I’d welcome any new weapon with extreme joy. It should be the opposite since thieves and bandits pretty much pick up anything that kills and use/master it.

thief; sword, dagger, pistol, shortbow. possible weapon combinations, 6 plus shortbow.

engineer; pistol, rifle, shield. possible weapon combinations, 3 including rifle.

i think your quest for more options would be better served in a different sub forum.

They have kits, that’s why. Which are indeed weapon skills.

Guardian; Being too perfect.
Warrior; Being Anet’s sugarbaby.
Mesmer; Too faceroll.
Thief; Too much of a scapegoat. Lack of weapon skills. Lack of Assassin Armor. Broken traits~ like Shadow Protector, needs more access to swiftness/speed (which supposedly getting soon?) no 1200 range.
Ranger; Super ultra boring utility skills. Spirits suck. Traps being condition build only (personal sadness). No Karka pets.
Engineer; Feeds enemy team kills too often.
Elementalist; Requires 20 people to kill bunker. Non dagger builds are incredibly boring. Water needs a more viable set for damage/cc and better effects.
Necromancer; Minion Master sucks, AI sucks, no Shambling Horrors from GW1, Blood Fiend Minion needs condition removal on active. Lack of Elite Scar armor.
Ritualist; lack of presence.

Anet could just give us a weapon set of Fox Fangs, Nine Tail Strike, Golden Fox Strike and/or original Wild Strike. Lotta unblockable Assassin skills in GW1.

We have the least amount of weapon skills in game, I’d welcome any new weapon with extreme joy. It should be the opposite since thieves and bandits pretty much pick up anything that kills and use/master it.

It’s just a gold sink for people who don’t really need to throw money at anything else. If you don’t care about the small stat increase then don’t bother. I’m sure not unless I get extremely bored with my gold. Getting the items with Laurels is also basically free money anyways, as you don’t need to spend it on exotics. It takes a while to get Laurels but it’s extremely simple and easy. You can also get accessories with guild commendations~ also extremely easy to get. Just be patient or go ahead and throw money around.

These are the fun kind of bugs.
