Objectively, I’d say no, it’s not fair. It’s like giving 1 team rocket launchers and the other team pistols (the solo folks). I mean, it depends on if the pre-made is good obviously. There have been instances there the pre-mades were bad and they lost, but then other cases, like what you just experienced, where the pre-made steamrolls the other team.
In the end, I don’t think it’s fair, because both teams aren’t playing on equal terms. This kind of thing has been putting a lot of players off the game recently.
Yea I know. In the beginning pvp was fair matches all around, now it’s the exact opposite of that, everything is always predetermined…does anyone really have fun in such matches…I know I sure don’t. Just gettin my daily done then probs leave

Um if you wanna see things die super fast try solo pvp I think you’ll be verrrry happy there. Ranked try ranked solo. If you haven’t been playing any there you’ll probably have high mmr therefore getting put on a really good team and against a really noob team that you can kill in less than a second

Umm no idea what your’e talking about, meta before last patch was WAY more tankyer. To me everything dies way too fast right now which I personally find boring. Run in everyone dies in 2 seconds, rez repeat.. not my idea of fun.
Exactly what I was asking… So you still enjoy this slow paced PVP by sounds of it.
irrelevant the old way it used to be.. Just cause it wasn’t as tank as before.. doesn’t mean its not slow paced at the moment.
Um not quite sure what your’e asking but no I do not enjoy ranked pvp right now that’s why I stopped playing it, but it’s for completely different reasons than why you don’t enjoy it. I don’t feel like its too slow I’d rather have more sustain than we have right now. But if you wanna know in full details why a lot of people hate ranked pvp right now go check the pvp section of the forum (unranked is ok if you feel like you simply must do some pvp or wanna get the daily pvp wins done sometime within this century)
I don’t know what to think tbh. I’ll admit, I didn’t take part in Season 1, I even PvP’d less during Season 1, only going into Unranked when I did. I can’t comment on Season 1 obviously for that reason.
When Season 2 rolled around, I decided to play some Ranked this time. I’ve had no issues actually climbing the divisions, but I have noticed a lot of the games are blowouts. The losing team is at something like 150 or 180 points.
In all honesty, I actually stopped playing over the last couple of weeks. I’m just losing the drive to play. Lack of build variety sure isn’t helping either. PvP is feeling veeeeeeery messy in my honest opinion.
So, although I’ve personally not had issues actually climbing the divisions in this Season, and I’ve not experienced MMR Hell, something is up. I don’t know if Ellie’s experienced MMR Hell, but she’s not new to Guild Wars or PvP. She’s PvP’d since Gw1 (high five!) so she’s not talking through ignorance.
Um yea you could call it mmr hell or purgatory or w/e you wanna call it, I didn’t have to experience it for very long though before I said this kittens crazy I have WAY more interesting more fun things to do than this insanity…like watching paint dry and playing in traffic. So yea I’m not experiencing anything negative anymore since I stopped hitting that play ranked button

@godsie, Everyone with half a brain knows this seasons matchmaking fails but trolls will be trolls cuz thats the only thing they know how to be. You don’t have to justify or explain anything to them also if you keep feeding them they just keep trolling more cuz no mater how much you feed em they never get full. Do what I do… just point and laugh and let them be.

Soo Anet only reads reddit and they don’t read their own forum?
K so I don’t really know how reddit works it looks way more confusing than the forum here but since they only read that I went ahead and made an account there so I could leave feedback there EVERYONE should do that.

Wow that IS a sexy outfit, I wonder where he puts his weapon
I’d tell you were I used to keep my Bard’s bow but I think it would violate the forum guidelines…
Aww foooey, I guess I’ll never know……. :’(

Scrapper already got nerfed in last patch you guys must just wanna see it completely dead like when everyone complained about turrets which weren’t that great to begin with, you could kill them pretty easily before but now they die if you just breath on them so nobody ever uses them anymore which is sad, they might as well remove them from the game they are so useless. Stop with all the nerf requests just request other things to get stronger so we can have more than 1 viable build to play on each profession. Thank you.
What? A hammer leap CD increased 2 seconds (to 12) and the paltry sneak gyro CD increase is hardly the nerf scrapper needed. Things needs to be nerfed, not buffed, or the power-creep will spiral out of control and you can kiss the concept of “skilled play” goodbye.
From what I read in the update patch thing on Dulfy they nerfed some of it survivability too. (it was way tankyer before) Also coool keep asking for everything to get nerfed just gives me more incentive to not play since every single build I ever liked is no longer viable. I don’t really care anymore
I don’t know what Dulfy patch you’re referring to, but in the only “meaningful” scrapper patch, they didn’t nerf it’s survivability. You probably found scrapper be to be tankier in season 1 because so many people were running low DPS bunkers. Before season 2, the tanky amulets were removed and now higher DPS builds are more prevalent.
From the June 26th’s patch:Scrapper
Rocket Charge: The recharge of this skill has been increased from 10 seconds to 12 seconds.
Sneak Gyro: This skill’s recharge has been increased from 20 seconds to 40 seconds.
Expert Examination: Fixed an issue that prevented this trait from functioning with gyro explosions.
Stabilization Core: This trait has been merged into Final Salvo.
Perfectly Weighted: This trait is now on the adept tier. Decreased the stability granted by this trait from 2 stacks to 1 stack.
New Trait—Applied Force: Gain quickness when you gain might above the threshold.As for you not seeing any skilled play this ranked season, well that’s because the elites dumbed down the game. If we nerf the elites down to core levels, we solve that problem.
I don’t know all I know is every time I found a build that I liked and got used to it and enjoyed it, some one complained about it for some reason probably becuz it countered w/e they were playing at the time and they didn’t wanna change their play style so they demanded NERF nerf this nerf that nerf everything I’m having trouble beating. Sooo whatever build I liked and was used to and enjoyed got nerfed so bad that it was no longer viable, so no matter how much I wanted to play it I couldn’t cuz it was made to be completely useless. And I really don’t enjoy any of the current builds that everyone’s playing so it makes me not wanna play much. I just wish all the builds that got nerfed would come back and get un nerfed then maybe we could have a lot of builds to choose from instead of 1 or 2 and things would be more interesting. None of my builds in gw1 ever got nerfed to heck, (not to mention there was thousands of different build combos you could make there so things never got boring) they made other builds and skills more powerful but I really don’t remember any of my favorite builds there ever getting nerfed to the point of uselessness. Here there’s not even a lot of skills to make builds from, whatever we DO manage to make a useful build out of shouldn’t be getting nerfed to the point of uselessness leaving like only 1 or 2 builds that would even be viable.
I have a solution for people who don’t enjoy armor in Guild Wars 2, or most armor in any MMORPG. The solution is to play World of Warcraft for 10 days and then quit. After that, you’re going to enjoy every design ANY other game will offer, no matter how bad it actually is. Trust me, this works. I played World of Warcraft for years, went into Guild Wars 2, and every armor design in the game is godsend for me compared to World of Warcraft’s armor design.
Sadly Ive actually played FF14 for over 6 months so I actually have the inverse of the this effect.
what bothers many of us about skimpy outfits is not that they exist, but mainly 2 issues:
-when most of the female outfits or armor is skimpy, you’re taking options away from them, you can only be sexy, and many girls don’t want to only look sexy. So, more options is better.
-males don’t really get many skimpy outfits or armor choices (I’m looking at you, medium armor human male)and some guys also want the option to look sexy and show some skin, so again, more options would be apreciated.I don’t think anyone wouldbe against sexy armor for females if they had the CHOICE to wear them or not, and if males had comparable options to dress skimpy too.
For a more company like Anet, that has tried t be progressive, this should be a non issue at all.
Guess what game’s got you covered then.
But I do agree. It’s funny that people give Terra so much kitten for it’s skimpy armor and completely gloss over the fact that the skimpy/skintight armor was mostly on the Elves and Castanics which had male versions that were just as outlandish and “kittenty” as the female ones in their own way.
Anet has little in the way of Skimpy male armor with only the Daydreamer’s Finery really presenting a “sexy for the sake of sexy” option for men. Pitfighter and Scallywag sort of fall under this but they both also have a heavy “gladiator” theme to them which means it sort of makes sense that you wouldn’t have full coverage.
Wow that IS a sexy outfit, I wonder where he puts his weapon
I just want my simple yet fun key farming back(which would also give me something to do with my thousands of tomes of knowledge that I have no use for,& something to do with my extra character slot & digital deluxe upgrade that I bought for the golem banker that I bought for the sole purpose of key farming) and also more viable builds and classes to play in pvp since it is sooooo boring playing the same class and build as everyone else but if you don’t then you get yelled at, harassed and called a noob. Also it would be nice if we could separate solo players from team players again & remove mmr from the matchmaking equation so fair & fun matches would be possible again and it would actually feel like a competition rather than a slaughter fest. Also a few nice bikini/loin cloth outfits & another dance book with gw1 dances added to the gem store would be a great addition for fun-ness 
(I don’t feel like I’m asking for too much)

Eh hopefully something for people who don’t do fractals or raids….
They’re fixing some of the flaws that affect people with less time/casuals in the HoT maps. They’re making some changes to Fractals. They may be changing the dungeon rewards. That’s all the stuff we can expect in this update. That and the WvW changes anyway.
Eh nothing that would benefit me then, but if it helps others to enjoy the game better good

I don’t really care anymore Also I don’t see any skilled play in ranked right now win/lose depends on if your’e on the high mmr team or the low mmr team and or if your’e on a premade team or pug team. All play ive seen this season before I quit was people slaughter and others get slaughtered, no “skill” or competition whatsoever.
