Guild Wars 2

Rubbish. I take SoH for the intrupt more then anything.

I have seen druids use bersker tricks and commanders – I think that the armour (4 stat pvt and concentration) kinda silly and tanky tbh.

Not sure where the skill is in this video unless you mean weapon skills. Thief bunny hopping with bound randomly all over the place, and you’re a rat berserker running condi gun lame. I stopped the video at around 3 mins

Use to play an open world pvp game, it was pretty kitten fun when you have abut 20 v 20 People over a map boss, normally the fights last ages and sometimes the boss never gets killed as everyone would get whiped. That being said the population was no where near that of this game and I am sure people would qq in no time at all.

dear anet, please can we have an alternative for gift of exploration. me, like many others don’t want to spend time exploring maps.

Marurder armor/weapon stats with bersker Trinks I think. Not really tried d/p and staff combo.

the only time a thief can 1 shot anyone in pvp is another thief. even bersker ele can react to a solo 1 shot if not under presure, use invul and port (lag might still get them killled)

thief has no passive defence/invul.

sort out your path findings, how am i not able to use any (projectile) including siege disable in some locations but a DH/thief/engie/reaper can pull me from below at the same location as where I throw’ed the siege disable.

how can I use head shot (x/d #4 thief) at melee range and the shot was obstructed ? how can i steal to someone as a thief and also become LoS error (no target path found) but they can port to me and or, use projectiles.

the texture are so out of whack, its pretty sad playing sometimes, dying to people because of said above issues is so stupid.

Hitting said person isn’t the main issue man, it’kittenting them while a passive defence pops up which are sometimes nie in possible to predict and cancel, what ever if its a block, a blind, an invul hell I am pretty sure bv can stop your own bs (pretty sure the stun happens before the dmg).

Some donuts are like sugar coated buns with jam inside.

Oh… Ok then

Pff, if you 2 are going to brag about your gender then I would much rather watch you 2 have a topless mud wrestleing match, not silly pve fractals videos , or your jam.

Back on topic, has bs always had an after cast this long? It’s weird because tactical strike has a faster re-cast time then back stab.

People are being selfish d/x here. What about tactical strike, or hook strike… No love for them ?

And yeah pretty much what cynz says. If you’re in stealth and use #1 skill and for what ever reason it does not connect then it goes on a 1sec cd, wich is a bumber if you see a window as soon as you enter stealth but no much of a problem is you use it just before stealth runs out.

Cecilia.5179:

I’d like to see a weekly event in the middle of dbl now that there is only 1 dbl. It could be a big final gambit to turn the tide before reset, and it could help provide players with ascended gear without grinding content outside WvW.

That will juse attract pve players though. Although it’s not a bad thing as newer people might actually like wvw, but it might encourage the same mentality as eotm where people come to just farm this event and thats it.

??? Yes because acro is more of a safe mode then sa, there is 2 passives in acro.

A lot of people don’t dispise the dbl, a lot of people voted for it.

Everything from HoT except power reaper is an abomination, daredevil included.

I hate the fact that you’re making a statement that I have nothing to say but to agree.

Are you really so callous as to think you should inherently disagree with everything I say because we disagree on other subjects?

Obviously I made that post because I don’t think that I should be inherently in disagreement with you on everything. Yet, here we are, in a disagreement again.

Not disagreeing or intending to be confrontational. Just kind of shocked that despite our previous bouts you’d think we’d never be able to see eye-to-eye on anything.

Jana.6831:

No, azukas talks about condi as to him/her D/D is a typical condi set and was never meant to be power OR EVEN IF WE HAVE TO GO WITH THE FLOW AND STOP COMPLAINING ALREADY

Then I fought a power d/d thief and realized that your weaponset of choice actually has build variety.

See I asked this thief about how he makes D/D viable, and he replied, “You have to cut the cord from the SA trait line. It’s a crutch that bad thieves rely on because they have no reaction times.”

He the told me he runs Acrobatics, Trickery, and Daredevil.

That’s more of a crutch build than SA ever was. $10 says the guy runs IR, too.

Daredevil is the epitome of crutches for thief. Actually, I’d reckon it’s probably the most potent set of crutches out of every profession/mechanic in the game except for dire geared-condi mesmer.

In all seriousness, nobody gets to brag about dropping crutches until they move to builds like DA/CS/Tr.

Does Da/Tr/Cs with P/P count as no crutches? Lol

Trick is a crutch that bad thieves rely on because they have no mental capacity to manage their Initiative pool.

You have to move to CS/DA/Acro to remove all crutches.

Is this a joke? Because it’s a pretty bad 1. Preparedness isn’t the main reason why people take trickery :-/

Why the hell has a mod moved this thread here… Stupid automatic thing.

Well like the I fo said. That was fight number 5, and I won 3 of them back to back. I guess he was being a bit too careful this time and a mixture of not wanting to fight at all as he alt f4.

I don’t mind. I not fought a condi tempest on d/d so most of them deathblossoms were predicted cast attacks to clear condis. The only regret was not recording the first fights (didn’t think of it)

It’s just after. I can’t share times on mobile phone like you can on a Web browser.

Cnd is weird. 1 night after coming home drunk I played s bit of d/d vs a condi tempest. Skip to 2:23, that cnd should not of hit imo. https://youtu.be/0Fh84-ltXbU

Seems to be a lot for 2 and half hours play time, seriously?

so like, exotic pieces of armor/weapons ect that are in your bag, originally for toon a but is now for toon b?

Every outfit/weapon/style skin back In the gem store

Funny thread. People getting all up tight over some nude tooned pixels. Get over your self’s will ya, there are far more worse armour “art” games out there

Pretty big thread just to kill a bunch of npcs lol.

It’s only good if you catch the enemy off guard/no cool downs or if the enemy is a sack of potatoes that dosnt dodge.

You also need to take into account of players that do not have passive defence. Thief vs thief is already a joke for example. Mug alone does 2230 ish dmg and would crit up to 5k easily, now ad pi that’s another 4k asuming steal interupted the target, and air sigil. That’s 10k before backstab. I say no to crit on mug

s/d and shortbow is the way to go, that is ofc, you play s/d. i dont believe in this crap about chasing targets down, if they got away then let them go… they will either come back and or give up but you’re both reset so whats the problem…if i wanted to keep them in combat i would go shortbow and pace my self because any smart person being chased by a thief will have a counter burst plan in mind…although you can surprise them with los advantage. I have played s/d for 3 years now, but milked it since hot. i have never used/bothered witht hat bug exploit of infiltrators return and jump…

i do not play pvp much anymore but i play a lot of wvw, my traits are DA 2/2/2 tricekry 3/1/2 DD 3/2/2.

people have recorded with 3 full size blobs in sm lord room and dont lag like this, he is probably using a mobile phone or something

leave them asuras alone!

no actually kill em all

its all good n all using there’s gimmick builds to solo camps but vs a player with braincell’s it will not work. i would run a build that takes more then 2 mins to solo a camp (i know thats not possible) but can fight people then some cheap crap build that can only mow down npc’s

Actually you look the person running an “I win build” acro/dd/trickery has to the most easy faceroll thief build ever, and you’ur running bound to lol. I dunno how people can claim them self’s to be skillfull opements when they are running trash like this. Btw what build was he running?

Finenlly got shortbow of the sunless!

Well if we are weakened then it would be fair I’d say but then we would tickle the opements even more then we already do with shortbow

Jana.6831:

and also make SB more viable against D/P.

Nm I miss read at first. And anyway shadow shot is unblockable so this won’t affect it, might stop head shot spam though.

I don know sod all about necro but you apply weakness on your self. Short bow is pretty good for 1v1’s, it’s not about the dmg but what it offers.

Soloing a camp the other day on my thief playing d/p (nc) I was in melee range of an npc who used their heal skills so I used head shot to interupt it, only to have red writing saying (obstructrd)… how does that even work?

Lol at the comments here.

Rev can reveal us and can keep up with our mobilty to some extent, I often hit around 4k but I am not built for high dps. Rev hurts us way more then this skill does.

I asume you’re that big ugly norn driod. It got to the point that you became the main target as in open feild we couldn’t do much with no Los.

I may be a dirty scum bag thief but I do not gank in even numbered fights unless it’s at an objective and even then I’ll let them be.

Nope, base power shatter mesmer, no chrono, no power creep except mantra of distraction which I was using before they reduced it’s CD.

hmm, dont remember anything like that tbh, i normally ignore mesmer’s in larger fights

</3

I’ll make sure to wave next time but then again I don’t particularly enjoy GH match ups due to the disgusting amount of ganking from Psy and Drgr. TaG and TAL are more respectful and fun but dunno if I’ll be taking part much more this week tbh.

Are ;( are you sure it was me? I don’t play d/p much. I dunno about our server for Ganking, I know drgr like to gank especially when they run with multiple thives, but a lot of you are condi hardcore…Tash are the main culprits here lol.

Back on topic I will fight anyone but I tend to stay away from dh trappers if I don’t feel like trying my luck with 1.

But some people see that as a loss because his opponent got away, nothing worse then having a good fight only for you ‘lose’ because they managed to leg it, and that freindly /salute would be flipping them off more then anything.

There is probably more pve players now in the pvp arena just to farm the backpack. This is why you see so many people rolling fotm builds and class’s. Even thief players are now playing the faceroll/gimmick condi d/d, there is no point in trying to ‘play’ pvp when it’s just full of aoe/passive and more aoe… So just play what everyone else is and go with the flow.

i normaly use engi gunk after the go through their hammer rotations, and as soon as i hit steal from ranger i drop it because they normally have that weakness on crit attack trait.

the old s/d could hold and contest node’s. no chance now wven with the dd line.

the thing i, 1 team does skill balance and the other does amulet, how can that even work? you can’t have 2 ‘balance’ teams fighting each other and expect pvp to prgress into esport, it just dosnt work. The problem with pvp is that its all about conquest…afking on nodes to farm points, so ofc people are going to run easy, most efficient builds going (aka DH or condi chrno) the balance is crippled beyond repair.

anything above 15k is adequate.
