Why is Ranger Bad?!

in Ranger

Dear Players who have issues with Ranger.
Stop relying on your pet. That’s a start.

Pets can help you take agro. you can set traps and tell your pet to come to you, luring enemies to your traps. That’s just 1 example. But seriously there are tons of other strategies that I can come up with, including yourself, if you just read the skills your weapons give you, including your utilities.

I’ll give you 1 example with LongBow and ShortBow with Utility skills combo:
You can start off with LongBow Skill5 to cripple/damage enemy. Then when enemy gets closer, you can Knowckback enemy by using Skill4. Then you can take enemy’s Defense down with Skill3, Giving you the opening to use Skill2 for Lots of damage.
If your pet has agro, You can do this and help your pet take less damage while dealing damage yourself.

Now you can Weapon Swap to ShortBow and use Skill1 for Auto-attks to do damage quicker. If enemy is attking pet, use Skill5 to daze it for a short time. But if enemy is chasing you, Use skill4 to Cripple Enemy and Dodge as your moving. If you run out of stamina and u still have agro, use Skill3 to dodge again, which will also give you Swiftness for quicker movement speed to evade attks with movement. If your pet dies, use F4 to swap your pet.

If enemy is still chasing you after you summoned New pet, Set a Spike Trap and Flaming trap to Damage/Cripple enemy, then swap to LongBow and Knowck enemy back, Take down it’s defense, Deal tons of damage with skill2 and stay on ur toes.

You can use a Utility skill “Forgot name” that helps you get Endurance quicker to dodge faster and it will also roll your backwards. Pretty neat.

This is just 1 example. 1 Strategy. 1 Set.

Sorry if I didnt Name any skills… I cant remember the Skill names by heart. But Only remember the icons and skill#s.. lol

This post is getting too long… Sorry about that!

Anyone noticed lack of abilities that can evade melee’s dodge/block?
Seems to me that using their blocking abilities meeles can reduce range between therefore- simply crush us .

I dont understand your question?
Are you saying Engineer lacks Meele skills?
Or are you saying Engineer lacks from fighting meele classes?

Enginners have tons of skills to fight both meele and ranged classes if your question was (B). As for (A), I only use Tool Kit for Meele. Dont know and dont think we have another meele kit. But I’ll find out sooner or later =)

Extremly powerfull Ya say Dreamy? Explain me then why there is SO FEW engii builds over the internet GW2 sites?
Why there is SO FEW engiiners every PvP match i played, every RvR i ve saw so far?
i can’t say its useless class- it’s just low in everything compared to other dps classes/builds.

Because majority of players I have seen dont know how Engineer works.
Actually, most dont really know the combat system or mechanics by much from what I see in both PvP and PvE.

I sPvP with Engineer a lot before. And PvEd ever so much before no adays.

I have tons of Stratagies using engineer. I use tons of utility skills and weapons for different possible situations. I enjoy getting in depth with all my classes and learn it’s full capabilities. Engineer is no exception.

I played: Engineer, Elementalist, Ranger, Warrior, and Mesmer.

I dont read up “Builds” online to play my class. I work on my own and experiment and challenge myself in combat to learn what works and what doesnt depending on those different possible situations.

Its a skill based game. And that’s the way I like it. =)

Long Bow versus Short Bow -- casual Mists tests

DreamyAbaddon.3265

I highly disagree. I use both LongBow and ShortBow on my Ranger.
I swap between them very offten and i have tons of different strategies playing them.

Its not about DPS its about how the skills deal Damage, Control, and Support.
Ranger has one of the most well thought out Skills planned.

I swap a lot between LongBow and ShortBow. Why not just use both? Pretty darn effective.

Sorry, Ranger is epic and awesome and in PvE very Over Powered and amazing.
Anyone who says “Its bad” dont know how to play the class. Because (A) they either are not good at it or (B) never played it.

Can Mesmers be reliable heal/support?

in Mesmer

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

This game isnt about “Healer Role” or “Tank Role” or “DPS role”.
The combat system relies on “Damage/Control/Support” which means…

Every class has to deal “Damage” while staying in “Control” and being able to “Support” themselves in combat to be self effeciant.

Every class has their own playstyle preferences when it comes do Damage/Control/Support.

If you only focus on “Support” then ur kitteny.
if you only focus on “Damage” then ur also kitteny.

You need to focus more on balancing out the 3 to kick the other player’s kitten
Or. PvE/dugnoens lol

Mesmer have really powerful “Control” mechanics. Usually using Clones to confuse players in PvP and enemies in PvE. I rarely take damage when I fight cause of Cloning and other factors. =)

I agree that it’s good to have a balance, but why add traits like “blahBlah heals others” or give boons to others if everything is for yourself? and I see plenty of people speccing DPS and speccing Tanks, but few speccing support.

I was under the impression that each class isn’t SHOEHORNED into being just one role (I.E. Warriors are tanks. Casters are DPS. Priests are healers.) and that if you WANTED you could still make a pretty viable support character the way you could make a glass cannon or a beefcake.

Honestly, Mesmer’s are the most versatile class I’ve seen in the game going from support to outright owning someone with a simple swap of utility skills. I know this because I’ve done it on many occasions where I was playing support and my group started falling apart because we were out manned in WvW, I swapped a few skills around and we over took the enemy.

This of course varies based on what role you need to play in the situation but, it really comes down to knowing how to play your character. Knowing if you need Feedback or Decoy, knowing if you need Portal or Mirror Image, knowing if you need Null Field or Feedback. It’s all based on situations and a competent Mesmer can really outshine any class in the game.

Every class I have played to it’s full capabilities do Damage/Control/Support excellently. Its not about switching roles. Its about being active in all 3 durring combat.

If your group is falling apart, its their fualt and not yours. It’s nobody’s job to babysit others because Like I said, Every class is capable and effeciant in dealing Damage, staying in Control, and being able to Support themselves.

Keep this in mind though: I’m not saying “Dont help your team”, But what im trying to say is “If someone in your team is dying a lot, its because he/she is not Supporting themself and not staying in Control in combat and that’s their fualt”.

It’s good to help your team out when they need too… But its better to work together and know how to coordinate Control/Support together while dealing Damage on the enemy. This requires strategy and team work with all players.

I love Mesmer because I enjoy it’s playstyle. But I also love the other 4 main classes I play as well, which are Warrior, Ranger, Engineer, and Elementalist.

This why I love this game.
The game’s combat system itself is “versatile”,
It’s not something you would see within an mmorpg game.

Because its nice to be able to customize for combat with tweakings and stuff.
However, Most players that I have seen play this like World-of-warcraft. They assume that that they can Tank and Heal when really, these traits help but shouldnt be relied on entirely…

Staying in “Control” is key. It helps you in Survival.
Supporting yourself helps you in survival.
Being able to survive in combat will help you deal most damage possible to win the outcome of combat.

I can pretty much win an sPvP match against anyone with any class I play if my opponent only focuses on “Tanking” or “Healing” or worst of all, focus entirly on “DPS”

But fighting an Opponent who knows what their weapon skills do, knows how and when to use their utility skills, Tries to fight “Control” and tries to “Support” itself while trying to deal “Damage” to me, will be more of a challenging opponent and a pain in my Puppy to defeat.

There are no DPS class bro…
This combat system is focused on Strategies based on Damage/Control/Support.

You need to deal “damage” just like every other class.
You need to stay in “Control” just like every other class.
You need to “Support” yourself/others just like every other class.

It boils down to playstyle prefferences.
If only thing you focus on is DPS… Yeah, You’ll be in trouble.

Then most of the warrior are in trouble~~

Not Really. I Play Warrior too…
Warriors have amazing meele and ranged weapon skills.
Its just the matter of how you enjoy Damage/Control/Support.
Believe me. I rarely take much damage as Warrior when I evade and dodge away attks using meele and ranged weapons.

We Warriors got lots of good Control/Support skills as well as Damage just as an Engineer does. It’s how well u play and setup your skills. Its how well you use them that effects the outcome of who wins or who loses.

i done tons of sPvP and I love them.

Master all your weapons and Utility Skills.
All weapons and utilities 100% useful. It’s how you use them that determines their usefulness.

The moment you do that, you have mastered your class and know how to play it’s full capabilities and be ready for dungoens and such.

As for stats? Not as important compaired to knowing how to use your skills on time while moving away and dodging enemy attks.

Attk enemy’s Blind sides with meele and ranged weapons.
Remember: Each weapon/utility skills are good for different situations. So plan your strategies and learn to build different ones so when time comes you need to change ur tactics, you can without limitations.

Rifle or Shortbow

in Warrior

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

Long Bow is Amazing for AoE kiting and Rifal amazing for Single Target kiting.

The Bow allows you to Blind enemy, making them miss you.
Immobolize enemy, giving you chance to keep your distance and readying ur big AoE attks.
Does Big AoE Fire type attks. Just excellent!

The Rifal has an Amazing Knowckback Skill with Rifal Butt. Pushes enemy away from you.
You Can Cripple enemy from the distance, making it hard for enemy to get to you.
You can Weaken Enemy’s defense and do Volly shots to deal massive damage to the single target, and you can Swap between Rifal and Bow.

Purely amazing weapon choices for swaping if the situation Calls for it.
Sometimes Ranged is best at certain situations, and sometimes Meele is best at others.

I recomend mastering all weapons.

Woow OP.. chill out man.
You can go with any weapon you like in sPvP… Its how good you play and what skills you use and utilities. Its your strategy that makes the difference here..

Anyone who tells you “You must go this weapon to be useful” dont know what they are saying. They dont even know crap.

I highly recomend u play the way you want based on strategies that works for you.
It is NOT your responsiablity to support others.

Everyone has to Support/Control for themselves while dealing Damage, just as you do.
If someone dies, its their fault.

Have fun now and put a smile on. Grab a Happy Meal =)

How to fix Elementalists!!!

in Elementalist

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

I agree with OP here…
I dont think Elementalist is broken at all. Since I play it as one of my main and favorite classes. But I do think shorter cooldown for Attunement Swap would be soo much cooler and epic!

Specially when I need to change to “Water” to freeze the enemy with Chill and to “Fire” and use lava around the enemy who is chilled for more damage/control effect. its fun to change attunments. So short is better.

The Problems with Ele: Bit of a Rant, Really

in Elementalist

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

Elementalist has been the most exciting class I have ever played in GW2 as a mage than any other class.

It really has good skills for all weapons. It requires fast thinking, fast changing elemental skills and fast moving and dodging.

I havnt found 1 skill that is useless in Elementalist. Not on any weapons or Utilities.
Though, It’s one of my favorite classes, I happen to notice a lot of people just dont understand how to fully take advantage of the combat system and mechanic. Specially the Elementalist.

My friend and I both love elementalist and the fast pace combat skills it uses. Tons of strategies to be made.

If anything, this is excactly what a Mage class should be like!

If you don't attunement swap, your doing it wrong

in Elementalist

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

I agree with the OP here.
I see way to many noob Elementalist who just stand there, not swaping to their attunments when needed. and focus fully on DPS.

I get asked “What weapon is better DPS for elementalist?”

Seriously!?

People, this game isnt about doing the most DPS… this isnt World of Warcraft.
This is GW2. All weapons are 100% useful and so are the utility skills. Its how you use them that matters.

I took on solo champions and 10 monsters at once as an Elementalist, and I can do it naked too. “Though gotta watch out for Ranged type Monsters… Hate those lol”

Pet overhaul

in Ranger

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

a old thread. but one that Anet could read and use.

for now though it just more proof that this issue has been around for a long time and Anet has been slow about fixing it.

There is no issue. The issue is people rely on their pet and want to do DPS all day hoping their pets can stay alive long enough before they take agro themself.

People should learn to use their pets and not rely on them all the time. you got useful Weapon skills and Utilities to do well while kiting without pet. I feel making pets stronger will only make Ranger way to over powered in PvE.

I use “Mine” a lot with “Sharple” and Elixir Gun. Really nice to cripple enemy, Knwock them back, Use Elixir to jump back with Acide and cripple enemy again with Poison effecs and shots. And I like using Rifal to slow enemy down or dual pistols. Really nice stuff.

Engineer is extremely powerful and is really well designed.
I have tons of different strategies with different weapon sets and utility sets that compliment each other during PvP and PvE.

In Fact, Anyone who says “This class is useless” are really bad players themselves who dont know anything about this game’s mechanics in general.

Engineers have amazing Damage/Control/Support utility skills and weapons.
I could show you if you are in “Borlis Pass” server. =) I’m always willing to help out.

Make tool kit useful!

in Engineer

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

Tool Kits are very useful. I like Crippling enemies and attking them meele on their blind sides as they try to actually hit me but miss. I also like Blocking when I need to in a situation where enemy’s position starts to adjust with mine. I also like Pulling enemies towards me if they choose to run away or I dodge them from ramming towards me. I also like hitting them hard and giving them confusion condition.

All in All… Its how you use it and how well you play that determines the usefulness of the kits.

Pet overhaul

in Ranger

Posted by: DreamyAbaddon.3265

DreamyAbaddon.3265

The only thing I agree for WvW PvP is:
“Grant pets damage reduction from AoE attacks in PvP WvW.”

But for PvE? No way! Rangers are already over powered. Believe me.
I can solo a champion and a Group Event entirly without my Pet. With my Pet im like.. unstoppable.

Did you guys forget the skills and utilities rangers have?
You can cripple, Knowckdown, Dazestun, dodge like 4 times, 3rd time with Short Bow skill3 and the other one that’s utility skill. Etc.
This class has tons of useful utility and Weapon skills… Lots of strategies can be made.
We are amazing Kiters even without pets.

If Ranger’s pet where any more powerful than they are… all I’ll be doing is spamming for DPS and not care about what my weapon skills do since my pet has the agros and I can stay far and safe.. And believe me, its no fun having your pet do all the work just to keep you safe. The action/strategy and fun will just be gone then.

I am happy with how My Ranger is.

While many people are unhappy with the lost shores update and ascended gear. For now at least, I have faith in arenanet and believe that future updates will be better!

I personally think arenanet simply made a mistake….no person is perfect and neither is no company. I don’t see ascended gear going away but i believe they will make obtaining it easier and think very carefully before adding a new type of gear in the future.I see nothing wrong with adding a new type of gear as long as its done right. For ascended gear, i think they did a poor job of implementing it.

I also believe future events will be better. I think while the halloween event was great…the lost shores was lackluster in comparision.

Do any of you guys still have faith in arenanet and believe they make up for their mistake like i do?

I am waiting to see what the open QA answers are like on monday.

—If I see plans to continue putting more “agony” in this game at the expense of skill…
—If I see no plans to encourage people to leave fractals and to stop splintering our playerbase…
—If I see any plans for another tier beyond Ascended…

I will leave this game, never buy from ANet again, and more importantly forsake mmo’s all together.

I’m kinda in the same position as you are. I’m really just waiting to see how the AMA turns out. I’m hoping it would turn out positivly good.

Cross your fingurs! =D

I actually do have faith in ArenaNet still…
You are right, they did make a huge mistake adding the ascended gear. But they could always change things around by getting rid of it or by keeping it the same stats as the exodics/legendaries. Also removing Agony and infusions.

I still have faith because arenanet knows how to make fun/challenging contents. They done it before. They can do it again.

Let’s just hope this goes well. After all, they are making this game for us, the players.

It is finally time to choose my class

Well since there are no Tank and Healer classes. The combat system is based on Damage/Control/Support.

Every class has their own ways of dealing Damage/Control/Support.
All have very good survival, damage output, and control skills to help you in the fight.

It all boils down to playstyle preferences.

I have: Warrior, Engineer, Elementalist, Ranger, and Mesmer.

If you play on “Borlis Pass” server, I could help you a lot on those classes.
Also server trasfers are free at the moment. Let me know if you are interested to arrange a meeting ingame. PM me =)

Honestly, I was looking forward in getting all my exotics and Skin Hunting. I wanted to get the best cosmatic style of armor and future items like the Legendary weapons for new skill animations and such. I was also looking forward to using transmutation stones to transmute them.

Getting easy max stat and having easy access to hard/challenging contents with lots of these rewarding horizontal prizes is what I was looking forward too.

It’s why I wanted to play GW2.

This vertical progression needs to end in my opinion.
This is stuff from other mmorpgs. Nothing original.

I prefer they follow GW1 roots. Keep it true ya know?

Open World PvP would only make PvE worst.
It would create a bad community where players would try to grief others just because they can. I seen this happen too much on other games with Open world PvP.

This game is about having fun and working together in both PvP and PvE. With/Against each other. You want a Competitive PvP mode? You got it!
You want a Huge Warzone RTS PvP mode? You got it! You want a good PvE experience with many lore and story to be told through adventuring and exploring the rich details of an RPG game in an MMO world where you can meet and play with people or even solo? You got it!

sPvP is designed for Competitiveness. You must be skilled and coordinate your strategies with your team to rank up and be the top with.

WvW is designed as a huge Warzone RTS Boardgame style PvP; for guilds to make teams to take out the other 2 servers using multiple objectives and strategies.

And as for the “Combat System”, More skills doesn’t mean better. In fact, it’s the opposite. You have 5 Weapon Skills, 5 Utility Skills, and your F-skills including the Weapon Swaping. Total of possible 19 Skills or more depending on your class.

The fact that you are Limited to the amount of Utility skills and weapon choices to swap between in mid-combat, makes it that you have to “Think” and prepair to build the perfect combo-strategy that would work for the fight you’ll be entering.

The fact that every weapons and Utilities for all classes are 100% useful, ’depending on how you use them" makes it a skill based combat system.

Sure, you can spam skills all day just because you can, But you wont win in tight situations. You’ll actually get slaughtered both in sPvP and WvW.

You are limited but open to choose ur weapon skills and utilities, Use them wisely and be on the Move/Dodge.

If this doesn’t satisfy you. Then I dont know what well? lol
I play on “Borlis Pass” server, so if you are here, Perhaps I can help you out?

Still love the game

I agree.
despite all the problems and issues that has been done, the game is still pretty fun.
Just the motivation is slowly dying off…

Hopefully I can stay motivated when they remove the new tier gear so that everyone stays equal based on skills and continue with new contents with epic skins and cosmatic skill changes with expanded storyline and choices, I’m sure I’ll be playing much more again!

=)

I’m always, everyday checking the forums in hopes that good news will come ahead from ArenaNet…

But I am starting to play less because of the Lost Shores Patch that introduced Gear-treadmill…

I have 5 characters I want to lvl and the more I play, the less motivated I become to playing with that news alone.

If they remove Ascended Gear or just make them cosmatic and have awesome Effects, then I’ll be more motivated to continue playing and buying more character slots and such! =D

Hate to burst your bubble, but lvl 60 is about where all the stories combine into Trahearne’s Story aka the battle to take back Orr from Zhaitan. I hope you still love the personal story when you get to this point. Too much negativity here…

I dont have a problem with that. =) And yes I know about the negativity about that issue.

Which is why im looking forward to “Expanding Personal Stories”.

I heard a suggestion in another thread about the idea of making the Personal story less epic and more about small quest lines regarding small issues and friends and enemies you meet along the way. This could be the next Personal Story?

Since Personal Story is the closest thing to real “Quests”, but better with cutscenes and personal instances, they could expand on it in different ways. =) idk.

I played FFXI which had a good story but its never personal. Its about this NPC and such. But I still enjoyed it. So I wont mind repeating with 5 characters as long as the bigining to middle is different before the end.

How Important is “Personal Story” to ArenaNet?
Will we see the “Personal Storyline” expand where we left off and allow us to make new choices? Will we see previous allies and enemies and encounter new threats and adventures?

To me, Personal Storyline was one of the most fun gameplay/storytelling aspect of an mmorpg I have ever played in my life. I love it and enjoy ever moment of it.

Soo much that I have made 5 characters, 1 of each race to lvl36.
My main Human Mesmer is lvl38 and I stopped doing personal stories at lvl33.
My personal goal is to get all 5 of my current characters to lvl60 Before I start doing my personal stories again.

All 4 of my other characters are lvl3 on their personal stories and will stay that way till i’m lvl60 and then im planning to level up doing purely Personal stories as I explore the world to the next marker doing events that pop up near by.

Once I reach 5 of my characters to lvl80 and completed my Personal Story, I am planning to buy 5 more character slots and make new choices to see a different branch. Repeat till finished. =) Why? Cause I enjoy it.

Now, I heard lots of players already got lvl80 and completed their “Personal Story”.
I would like to know if the developers are already working on expanding the senarios after the death of the DragonLord Zhaitan or if we will be waiting for it on the next ExpansionPack?

Discuss… =)

Problem is, the reason why we even express our feelings and concerns in the forums is because we really care for this game. 3 months of awesomeness and we want to keep it awesome.

That’s really the only main reason. If we didnt care we wouldnt be involved in the Forum here.

Those who complain and are about to quit...

I think I’ll wait for FF14: Realm Reborn…. I want to be a healer again and who is a better healer than a white mage?

A priest in Tera is the best healer class. Better than White mage from any Final Fantays Online games.

I recomend it. =D

But yeah, for me, I’ll most likely play Tera if I ever do quit. I might jump on GW1 from time to time since It’s still fun. But if GW1 gets the plug pulled or if GW1 becomes like GW2 with gear-treadmill… Goodbye ArenaNet =(

Pretty much what these guys said. This game wasn’t designed to go vertical progression.
My only question is, when the hell will Arenanet offocials do about this?

Will they fix it? or continue trashing their own game?
Will they responde to us? Or will they ignore us until the game becomes another WoW/EQ clone?

These are the questions that I like answers to and im sure im not the only one here.
I bought this game specificly because of the Manefesto. Because of none-gear-treadmil.

I played mmorpgs and tierd of that style of gaming. That’s why I decided to play GW2.
Until this… KITTY CAT MEOW becomes announced! MeeeooUCH!!!

What would bring you back?

I agree with making this new gear have same stats as the exotics.
But add changes to animations u get for the skills you use to make ur skills more interesting to use. This would definantly be awesome =D

But yeah, im currently having a hard time enjoying this game since the blog and introduction to this new “Gear”.

Love the Fractals

I love the Fractcals Dungoen!
I just hope they remove the Gear-treadmill it comes with it.

Really a shame such a fun challenging content is heading towards Gear-grinding.
I just hope this doesnt turn out to be a content that prevents players from playing it due to possible “Gear check” issues.

They should really think about removing the Acendend Gear and add something much better for us.

Oh c’mon leaving me lying there for minutes with nothing to do but read a book is not hrad, it’s stupid. let me walk the way back for god’s sake but not do nothing at all, am I supposed to watch TV until the whole party is dead or what?

I believe you should be watchign your party fighting and figuring out what your next move is and how to make it easier to succeed with ur team simply by observing the fight till someone revives you instead.

I really enjoy this dungoen. But my problem with it is the Ascendend Gear it was released with. Anyways, Good luck.

I honestly dont know if I enjoy GW2 anymore as I used to… I’m having a hard time having fun playing this game. I’m just not enjoying this..

I Love the new dungoen!! Love the contents!
I HATE the Gear-treadmill introduced with it.

Honestly, what they could of done instead is make ur skills have completely different animations for cosmatic looks. Stuff u would NEVER would be able to see.

Maybe skins for weapons/armor.
idk… I would of liked to see new skills or weapons with new skills added instead with multiple ways of getting them. The dungoen could have exclusive Skins and Animations rewards! A triple AAA looks and feel to it.

I dont want to be excluded from contents that are fun and enjoyable because I dont have a certain gear to be useful in.

Will GW2 return the way it was made to be? Can someone please tell me if this post would make any difference? Are we being heard?

I really don’t want this to happen.
The main selling point of GW2 was you dont gear-grind in this game.
PvE was suppose to be all about exploring/adventuring/ more personal stories, bigger events and soo much more!

Progression was suppose to be based on cosmatic and fun!
Not this Gear-Grinding treadmil!!!

When are the developers going to adress this issue!!!
When will they know we dont WANT THIS.

We didnt buy and support GW2 to play like this! Noo! Why are they doing this?

I always thought ArenaNet was the best when it comes to making games because its never about gear treadmil. It’s about having fun! BUT IM WRONG!!

Im soo Stupid.. How could I believe this? If this was monthly sub based… Oh god I’d be done with the game already. But I think I might still have hopes…

Please get rid of Ascended gear or at least just make them just cosmatic rewards for doing the dungoen!
