Just noticed: everyone has as favorite map the FOREST OF NIFLHEL.
(Me too)

If you played before the changes to tourneys to any extent then it’s highly likely that your favorite map is forest. It used to be the first round in 3 round tourneys.

yeah thats probably the reason, also I love this map and if I sometimes jump into hotjoin to try out new builds, it’s together with foefire the only map i really play (everyone hates you if you try out new stuff in solo/teamQ ^^)

I would love if they give us the option to choose a map to play on in soloQ and teamQ, i hate if spiritwatch or skyham pops up

I use skill 0, get my fiery greatsword and the treb is gone in 2seconds

When you passed out, your face hit the keyboard. While you slept your warrior won 5 consecutive tPvP tournaments.

This made me laugh!
But then I realized how sad it is and begun to cry.

I wonder how anet will deal with the twilight + sunrise = eternity forging after the patch. It would not seem fair to unlock sunrise and twilight skins and still be able to sell eternity for profit.

Well as Healix said, you’re going to need to equip/salvage/rightclick accountbind it, in which all three cases, you won’t be able to sell it after.

You can bind twilight and sunrise, and when u craft eternity, you can choose to not bind it and sell it instead. U get the gold and the 2 legendary skins.

this is a good point

Colour changing will stay at 0 charges as it is now, only the armor change will cost charges as it is now.

Silberfisch.3046:

The only thing about the new wardrobe that bugs me: I’m one on many people who bought multiple copies of the same gemshop skin for different characters/sets. For example my thief owns two statwise different sets of viper armour.
Since transmutation crystals are by far less expensive than a full set of armour skins, the questionis, will there be compensation for people who bought multiple copies of gemshop skins?

They will give u a refund like they always do if something like this happens, just open a support ticket when the patch goes live and they didn’t fix it already then.

ZudetGambeous.9573:

YES, 3-1 rate for shards to charges!

I knew saving those 500 stupid shards would be useful one day lol.

exactly my thoughts

Yuogtar.4892:

L2P

Thats kind of you. I can feel with this poor guy. And you seriously can’t say l2p on skyhammer, it’s impossible to counter the insane nockbacks of some classes. Shame on me but I play decap engi, if Skyhammer shows up. Never lost skyhammer anymore after creating one.

It’s about winning against high ratet players, this will boost your MMR insanely.
I personally am staying permanently in the top 25 SoloQ if I play – when I take a break (say 1day up to 2 weeks), I dropp out of the leaderboards, and then if I play 1 match again (even if I loose) I get back to my spot – most times I hit exactly place 16.

Maybe Evan can explain this better to you, how exactly the Rating is made.

Allie Murdock.8152:

I don’t like playing with my tag because it’s a beacon for targeting.

I’ve been in solo arenas, turned my tag on, and become the instant target for coordinated play. I’d play more with my tag on if this wasn’t the case.

Play bunker guard then you want to be the main target xD → easy wins :P

QQ about QQ, I think I’m going to QQ about this.

google.3709:

Crossing fingers this is the new fire trait! <3

xD then change the 25 or 15 fire to: if you swap to fire the enemy gets hit by a flameblast that crits for 100% without cd like the air one

air-fire-air-fire-air-fire…. attunment swap without pushing any other button and enemy dead xD – I like

Pls wait at least until friday and the ready up livestream before giving rude comments about the patch, you don’t know how exactly everything will play together.

Locuz.2651:

I never had these server side DCs that you speak off. I must be really lucky.

I can tell u for sure that those kinds of DCs exist.
I played 3k+ hours of gw2 and got hundreds of dc’s that where totally not because of my internetconnection – proofed by many internetrelated things runing side by side with gw2 and don’t get dcs (example: skype, ts3, steam multiplayer games, other mmos i run in the meanwhile – everyone of those had not even a single dc or lagg during the gw2 dcs).

100% there are dcs that don’t come from your internetconnection, can’t tell if its the server or your gameclient that bugs out in those moments but it happens (most time in WvW for me as well as sometimes in PvP, but mostly in WvW).

silentnight warrior.2714:

Totally against that changes.

His name xD

YourFriendMarvin.4127:

The combat system in this game is so fluid, which is why It kept me here for so long. The problem are the things around the combat that could be enhanced to make it such a better game than it already is.

Quoted for truth

The worst thing is the silent treb, if this gets fixed i’m happy.

You forgot the 9):
after Point 6) noticing that GW2 has the best gameplay that any MMO offers, reinstalling it and beginning to rage again because of all the Points that are mentioned in the Forum everywhere – this results in 6).
6)9)6)9)… its a circle.

Ugruk.4069:

Doesn’t matter, we are too small of a sample to be heard by Allie and the rest…

Allie listens to us, it’s just that Allie herself has only a minor role in the process of development sadly, it’s not her and not only the devs that decide what happens, it’s the NCSoft Department that tells them what to do and what not (Where they can put recources to and where not). And NCSoft likes pve more than pvp and doesn’t listen to the forums.
Thats how things go, I think sometimes you only can accept whats happening.

Look at Games such as LoL or CS, LoL has a lot of Depths to the Map so that you can ping the enemy movement and inform your teammates about missing ones, etc.
The Enemy Dead/Alive from CS is there for quit a while so you are on the right way.
Missing:
a kittenING SUPPORT ME NOW Information would be nice and
a kittenING ONLY 1 PERSON CAPS THE kitten FLAG as well as a
GO AWAY YOU RE*ARD, I KILLED THE ENEMY, GO TO THE TEAMFIGHT Icon for the Map which draws attention from players so they know
Theres a lot of misscommunication in YoloQ right now.

yeah pls xD remove retal and I can’t anymore die by using fiery great sword rush + blink I love this.
For real: no, don’t remove retal, it’s fine how it is right now, I don’t see anything negative

I hope its included in the feature patch as a Item, because it takes a lot of effort to deal with the consequences of a race change (Personal Story, Cultural Armor, Rewards that come from Personal story (will you be allowed to earn them a second time, if personal story gets reset),… – there are a lot of things that made them not do it until this point)
Maybe we will see it some day,
I would LOVE it (have a 100% map completion character I don’t like to play because I don’t like the look of the race anymore).

I miss it, gw1 monk ftw

Lukin.4061:

also

Allie Murdock.8152:

btw I have brought this up with the team recently – will post about it next week

Allie OUR HERO!

Phantom Master.9582:

Please, discuss

There is nothing to discuss

I would like to see a fix for #44

Allie Murdock.8152:

Hit r14 tonight. GG

/thread

Keep it going allie, we know you can do this

Allie Murdock.8152:

The stream will be live in roughly 2 hours.

yay im so ready!
Is Powerr going to say goodbye on stream?
The pvp community will miss him.

People want an expansion because living story did not be a equivalent replacement until now, maybe living story season 2 will change things and ppl accept it as worthy updates.
We will see.

Tyler Chapman.1832:

Anyways tomorrow is my last day at ANet so you won’t be seeing this face on the forums any longer.

:(

Just give the option to the player showing all enemies as human standard customization.
Then there would be no need of a cast bar.

Evan Lesh.3295:

Yes fifteen times.

I want Karl to confirm!

Tyler Chapman.1832:

This build is so fun, it should certainly shake things up a bit.

Crazy changes are crazy:P

#elepocalype

Let the elements guide you

Im so ready for it you dont even know

Lux.7169:

Deimos Tel Arin.7391:

nice!

errr when will the feature patch kick in?

not 18 march 2014 right?

how many months after that?

There’s no set date… apparently we will get more information when they have made progress. At least that’s what they’ve been saying since as long as I can remember.

I thought it’s not 1 specific date, it’s 4 different realeases coming 1 after another.

Team Name and [TAG]: Lonely ele [YOLO]
MainContact: CarryMePLS.1234
EU or NA server: EU
Complete roster? 1 lonely ele YOLO!

Frenk.5917:

Alright, I made a new graph (yeah, I like graphs – and paint), check the attachment.

Now I agree

Allie Murdock.8152:

Monthly basis is not 100% feasible right now like it was before.

PvE had (useless) monthly updates for 1 year

Solstice.1097:

Ive been playing condi war. Yes you can faceroll over noobs, but once you start playing against good players you have to play smart to win 1v1s, doesn’t matter their class.

My condi war only has 19k health and cleansing ire is my only active condi clear so it’s not exactly a bunker. And I only have 1 block sword #5. All you have to do is dodge or block my pin down and impale, stay out of LB burst circle, and use your condi clears if I land flurry on you, and you’ll be just fine.

I see what you did there

Frenk.5917:

Dwaynas Avatar.1562:

I think you made a little mistake:
(Paint, 10seconds)

No, I honestly think that a “balanced” spec, if played extremely well, can overcome an “OP” build, just like Allie said.
But, from a different point of view, you are right: it’s just a matter of how much high would the blue line intercept value be. If it’s high enough, in fact, the situation would be exactly what you drew!

(Amazing spaint skillz, though)

→ Just take Phantarams answer

Phantaram.1265:

I like the idea behind this chart to illustrate the problem but your example of s/f ele overcoming hambow due to skill isn’t a very good example since it will not overcome it unless the hambow player is really bad.

Unless you are saying that chart is how it should be. In which case I completely agree!

Sometimes you are right Frenk, that some op builds can be beaten by not op builds if you play very good, but at this state in GW2 it’s very rare that this happens.

(And ty paint skillz over 9000)

I think you made a little mistake:
(Paint, 10seconds)

I like Evan, and also Karl, but my “I believe in the Karl” thread got not much attention

Fanta.8049:

I dont need to kill anyone , i play bunker staff ele , all i need is heal ,remove and survive condi bomb ,waiting my friend to finish .And if my friend busy , i just drop my enemy down with my aoe , I finish or they run .

This made me laugh so hard

Your Game My Rules.5324:

How can GW1 PvP [9 years after its release] be still more competitive than GW2 one?

How come GW1 had several types of PvP to please everyone, from the competitive playerbase (ha, gvg, hb, ta) to the more casuals (ab, ra..) while we have a terrible mix of broken RA+AB as only PvP in gw2?

In before infraction: im not QQ’ing, im wondering

You explained it on your own lol, gw1 had 9 years of balancing, gw2 only close to 2 years now with less updates than gw1 (pvp updates).

Did you enjoy the All Is Vain thread?
And now a serious question (but pls answer the first one too xD)
How much time do you guys spend with:
- reading the forums
- trying new stuff out
- balancing
- etc (what you do each day)
pls some numbers or %

This sounds really good, +1 – hopefully they make something out of it.
