i don’t understand why anybody is comparing them to the damage output of melee weapons.

try bringing caltrops *on dodge. or initiative on crit, unload is almost sure to proc it, sometimes twice. also consider it’s the fastest way to proc signet of malice when you only have one target.

Because in most situations melee weapons are a viable option.

And PW is significantly better for procing Signet of Malice or anything benefiting from hit volume in general, even against one target. Against multiple targets, it isn’t even comparable. The only thing unique to Unload is the ability to create rapid combo attacks by using it through a combo field.

Headshot is also an awesome interrupt on certain annoying enemies/bosses.

Yeah, but you don’t need to use P/P to get Headshot.

But we’re talking about P/P so what’s your point?

Daecollo.9578:

Remove useless traits, as we have too many of them.

Change 5% Chance to bounce to 100% Chance to Pierce. (Bouncing just gets you unwanted aggro anyways…)
Change Pistol Mastery to 5% Extra Damage/10% Extra Critical Chance.

The bounce seems to do petty damage as well and not the same damage you do to your target. It’s ultra useless unless you’re that desperate to aoe proc sigils it seems.. :/

They’re really sending them to everyone? :o

Congratulations, victims of misfortune. GL on precursors.

To swap to from D/D to dish out stealth sneak attack bleeds as condition build w/o using ini. when you run out. Unload is also more useful in certain boss situations where you’d end up spamming shortbow AA, which isn’t as effective. Headshot is also an awesome interrupt on certain annoying enemies/bosses.

Why wouldn’t you want more playstyles? Especially one we can’t come close to currently.
Theif have the least amount of weapon sets in game.

The drop for all Lodestones is insane to near impossible.
0 Molten Lodestones out over 50 CoF runs. Haven’t gotten any in Fractals yet up to Lv.8.

I got entire Nightmare set from TA and think I found only 1 or 2 Onyx Lodestones.
Farming the mobs directly could take hours and may never even find any, even with MF. ;/

Lack of female armor? At least females get Thief armor. Males get 0. ;/

I saw one today. It was creepy.

I was fighting a veteran mob in Orr and he pops up outa nowhere immediately mutilating a tree gathering node next to me and vanished even faster than it appeared. Was like I saw a ghost.

I don’t see why he’s hated so much either. Maybe it’s easier since my main is Sylvari so I knew him longer. Still, Trehearne is the one who brings the army together, gathers information and figures out what everyone is supposed to do. Without him you wouldn’t know what to do next, so don’t see how he’s actually ‘stealing’ credit for everything. You’re still the uber commander of his army.

They probably should of made him more durable so people wouldn’t think so little of him, but they didn’t want him holding your hand through every mission.

MangoMan.3218:

Would traveling with a large group help? I’m level 60-something, and therefor of course have never been to Orr, but would that be something you can do to avoid annoyance?

Cursed Shores you can’t move an inch without “Everyone! Come” horde of zombies descends upon you. Even the water is flooded with zombies. Don’t even think about going afk for a minute either. More zombies than Raccoon City, which has already been nuked.

Zapan.7460:

How is the Legendary Harpoon Gun?!!!?! Is it amazing?
;P hehhehhehheh

The Spear looks pretty awesome. Beating things to death with a stiff fish.

I FRICKEN LOVE QUAGGANS SO FRICKEN MUCH I WANT ONE NOW@#!)

Sir, I’m with Tixx, Toyz & Co. Would you prefer a stuffed or petrified version?

Both. I also want the toy Quaggans to summon Quaggans that Quaggan everything I Quaggan them to Quaggan.

Never, please. Thank you.

You can jump. Just some weird issue with it being unresponsive while running downward in certain ways it seems. Just jump forward while standing still when doing JP/Vistas.

You need a more legendarys for you off-hand and 2nd weapon set.

Yeaaaah, that was confusing lol. Glad it was a typo.

Jon.5761:

an event similar to the karka one, hopefully less boring and doesn’t take 3 hours ~

Only the killing of 1000000 karkas to reach next phase was boring, the rest was pretty awesome imo. It did take a long time though. Builds up your fear of disconnecting with stuff liek that.

Eh? I just use Shortbow teleport and Signet of Shadows and run around gathering stuff using Hide in Shadows, Shadow Refuge or Blinding Powder to get rid of pesky enemies. For gathering the Rich Orichalcum in cove I change Signet to Shadowstep for when the Champion Karka gets extra pesky. :>

Well if I’m about to get downed I usually throw Shadow Refuge under me. I don’t really see anything wrong with it, thieves are squishy and I’m still stuck in that same spot. Not my fault if they’re too dumb to notice. The game also tells you if you killed someone by awarding Kill points. ;/

Also as someone mentioned, the downed stealth skill is fricken horrible, and also totally useless and broken in PvE.

Improvisation works, it’s just a really stupid RNG based mechanic that makes it useless majority of the time. They should replace it with something else.

Legendaries often don’t have the stats your build uses though, and you don’t get a choice in the matter (wish you did). One major reason people transmuted them.

It’s optional though.

Main thing that makes me sad panda is Lodestones.

I cuddle with his dead body everytime I kill him.

Flurry is amazing.

RedSpectrum.1975:

Must be for heavy armor, because medium armor looks fine on my thief

It’s cuz you’re a female char, which is the only way to get non-trenchcoats.

For new weapons I’d want Hand2Hand weapons the most. :<

Think I agree with khefka. You have no proof you were really going to finish it. You are a pretty big procrastinator after all and didn’t really care enough about it to begin with.

The Karkas don’t bother me. I got pretty enraged when I attacked a Reef Drake and instantly died. Then I ranged it and got killed instantly again. Was like WTF is dis I didn’t bother trying to fight one again, lol. Fricken things just an A hole. Perma aoe confusion knockdown and pull. :/

My Sylvari eats other Sylvari.

I wish Lodestones were easier to obtain. ;/ Easier to get 250 ectos than get one of those to drop.

Sounds like someone needs to Man-Up. With a commander’s help I took the last 2 POI forts I needed to finish map completion. Maybe Try asking one to help you move a horde to the ones you need. Or just keep your eye on it. You will get it eventually with server resets either way.
WvWvW is an extreme form of PvE, not sure why you don’t like it. Enemy players can’t talk to you, they are just mobs with advanced intelligence (actually some are less intelligent from mobs). Just so you know, completing that map gives you PvP related items only with no money. If you don’t like PvP that much there’s no reason for you to completely 100% the world map. The overall reward is meant for Legendary, which requires you to take part in every type of activity the game has to offer, with the exception of Spvp.

The icons are annoying? I never actually looked at my map and felt annoyed towards moving icons. How do they hinder you in any way? People are rude because they’re either jealous or think your stupid for wasting gold they wish you’d of given them instead.
The gold for commander title is kinda weird, but it does allow a type of nomination system for guilds since lotta commanders got it by donations from people who saw them fit to be one. Not as effective anymore since gold comes easier than it used to. Maybe they should of made it obtained through people donating a lot of badges? :s

Imo, a thief~ someone who simply takes anything they want and can get their hands on~ should be able to use any weapon in the game effectively, except for maybe magic related things like Focus, Staff, Scepter.

Greatsword Mesmer, ranged DPS. .-.

Developers love greatswords. Even Trahearne the Necromancer gets one.

Bring back Signet of Deadly Corruption for my Thiefie too.

Airships and helicopters are already in-game. Nuff said. Technology exists! gasps

Really? Cuz the hundreds of times I birded someone with my Mesmer I lul’d as I effortlessly killed their helpless selves with no inconvenience towards me from the bird skills. ;/

Lockout after disconnection is biggest flaw. :<

Guess the Event ones are bettah. What are these unique ones you speak of? :o

Blinding Powder bugs A LOT with pistols and simply does not stealth you if you use it while attacking. I often have to sheath my pistols quickly, stealth and then use #1 attack to get it to work correctly mid-battle.

Well the way I play, being the keyboard genius blessed with nimble beautiful fingers, is like this;

WASD movement.
Tab: Heal Skill.
F: Target.
Ctrl: Dodge.
1-5: Weapon skills.
Shift 1-3 Utility, Shift 4: Elite.
5th Weapon skill also on Q.
1st Weapon Skill also on Mouse 5.
C: Steal
X: Weapon Swap.
R: Holster weapons. (fast way to cancel attack) and looks sexy.
E: Interact.
Z: Call Target.
Caps Lock: Look behind.
Alt: Show Enemy Names. (For Quest/Event nodes.)
*; Town Clothes.

They should open up all the clothing stores for xmas and allow us to buy every piece of NPC town clothing in game to wear on ourselves.

I want a toy that summons and commands Quaggans.

The designers ADORE Greatswords. There’s even 2 of them. There’s not even 2 daggers and it’s a dual weapon. They made a few joke weapons which is fine, but there isn’t a serious alternative yet. The pistols are amusing but I wouldn’t want to go through all the trouble for them. Rather have an uber plasma or laser pistol or something.

Sylvari are the best Thieves.

The Grove and Celedon Forest. They are nice looking peaceful places to craft and finish dailys quickly. Used to hang out there a lot when I did TA all the time, was usually a lot of active chatter in map chat there. Not sure if it’s still like that.

Then there’s Sparkfly Fen and Kessex Hills. Those are always fun to run around in.

Would Final Fantasy 14 being released before it was finished or even well thought out count?
Game was beautiful as hell but so awful in every other aspect. It tanked pretty hard and damage control of firing their staff and making a trailer of them nuking the FF14 universe into oblivion was pretty epic. .-.

Yeah, that one’s going to occupy a place of infamy just because it’s so… so weird. Sometimes I think Square Enix makes about half their business decisions via Ouija Board.

Yeah, FFx1v is a great example.

I like that when they relaunch they’re gonna be a subscription model with the explanation “We promised our customers we’d bring them Final Fantasy MMO with a subscription” — as if anyone would really be mad if it were sub-free.

I’d love to play the remake and hope very much that it doesn’t suck. But I wouldn’t be able to trust that it’s worth being pay 2 play. It’s pretty much impossible for me to trust a game at all anymore nowadays to be worth P2P. There’s always some horrible blunder that just ruins the game, or they just don’t take it anywhere fun and it feels like your just making a bad investment.

2 ) failure at upgrading braking your equipment .

That remembers me the time i wasted 5 billion zenny in Violet Fears on iRO Valkyrie to get a +15 Violet Fear, i ragequit after that lol

This is one of the things that killed Aion. Taking your gear to +15 didn’t break the armor, but it broke every upgrade you ever put into it, causing an instant loss of millions and millions of gold that probably made people want to hang themselves.

Healing wack-a-mole is boring. Glad it’s dead here.
Monks also ruined the fun in PvP in GW1.

If you want somekinda group burst heal style in GW2 you could try shout warrior. Can aoe heal group for over 2k every shout with a cooldown of 20-25 seconds each. Requires quite a high level though for the traits.

I still find half of the warriors abilities perplexingly misplaced on them… And the dual sword just doesn’t seem, well like you are wielding dual swords… and what the hell is up with throwing swords in this game? =_=’

… (?°?°? ?

idk. I like throwing things though. I use Sword/Shield on my warrior, too bad I can’t throw shields at people.
In reality dual wielding swords is a defensive style, so it’s actually more accurate in GW2 with the Riposte.

They added candy canes and yellow snowballs hopefully.
