Guild Wars 2

Mik Hell.8206:

I can’t watch the video now, but I have a question: are the RtL and Mist Form nerfs supposed to affect only sPvP or are they “global”?

I`m going to rewatch, once I`ve calmed down, but from what I heard it is global.

Btw, also forgot, Thiefs…. Mug doesn`t (allegedly) crit any more, it just heals them & steals all of your boons.

R.I.P. Ele`…

Calae.1738:

You wanna laugh?

A Mesmer has more mobility than an Elementlist now. You can trait blink to 1200 range every 24 seconds.

That combined with Mesmer can now cast moa whilst running, shorter cast & Moa running away range has been lowered….

LOLOLCRY

T K.5173:

Did the buff any of other skill/traits, or was it all nerfs? Please tell me they gave ele’s other build options.

Only buff I heard was lightning cast weapon will have a slight increase of its time doing damage, AoE I think it meant.

Calae.1738:

It’s true and will effect all aspects of the game.

40 second cooldown on RTL if no target is hit.

The Warrior, with 8000 more health and 200 more armor has more mobility than an Elementalist. One hand sword has a 600 range leap on a 8 second cooldown. The Greatsword Whirlwind is a 450 range on a 10 second cooldown.

A warrior can leap 1050 range every 10 seconds.
Giving the Warrior 4200 range in 40 seconds.

I would like to congratulate the developers on their ineptness.

They really do flabbergast me all of the time.
I made a Ranger recently (mainly because I get sick of being melee or range, not both) & using Bow/Greatsword I can out run Elementalists a hell of a lot easier, 1100 range every twelve seconds, as it stands now, next change Ele` may as well bend over & say hi :$

Thief can out do us even more so.

I just don`t get where they have had their head stuck all of this time…

Just got on to hear that RTL is being nerfed yet again, 20 second if used & don`t hit anything, 40 seconds if you hit something. Really hope I heard this wrong as is one of the most kitten things they`ve said to date.

Which reminds me…

Mist form, you can no longer use your heal.

Feck my old boots.

Oh dear—if true. Where did you hear this?

They`re still live now

& it is happening again today.
Earlier on a level 32 ranger I looted six level one items, logged off, four+ hours later, log on & I`m still getting level one items :$

In WvWs, pets are regularly showing out of range when I`m hitting doors, despite being virutally toe to toe with them.

Pets don`t attack Pearl nodes, massively reducing rangers dps.

I`m getting messages at times saying out of range when using bows at times, despite being in range of enemy players/mobs/doors etc

Millers Sound borderlands, in the lake. dozen+ Millers` bots.
Underworld server.
1700GMT.

Had a necro abusing this in Underworld vale camp, this has been reported for months now & still nothing has been done about it.

Also, your report function has no report abusers/exploiters.

Any chance of anything being done about this?

It is very irritating!

I`ve no idea who folk are when they are on alts, get party invites from random names that I just have to keep cancelling, until they whisper me to say who they are :$

I have a D/D Ele, used to play staff & despite getting some kills & freaky escapes, tbh it isn`t worth the hassle.
I`ve tried S/D & Dragons Tooth is next to useless, Air 1 carries on casting after enemy is dead, so wastes time getting onto the next pest to smite.
D/D is just so much better then the other weapon sets, not because it is OP, but because they are just plain bad.

Underworld borderlands, in the lake. Half dozen+ Millers` bots. This is urgent, it is affecting our access to Bay, Hills, Garrison at times.
Underworld server.
1600GMT.

really needs a keybind, I`m quite amazed, albeit not shocked, that it doesn`t have one.

Can we have this please?

Also, option for stow pet to actually work until we activate the pet again, rather then we go down a 1cm bump that puts us in combat for no reason & bang, pet is out yet again.

Yes, I`m guessing this is one of the main reasons we`ve been told we`ll never see Kaineng, Jade Sea et al

But if they do have separate shards, I don`t see why they couldn`t let the US & EU have those zones, just like warcraft has set models for EU & US & China due to its beliefs/laws has different ones.

Ah well, one can dream. That or visit Guild Wars

You do realize Guild Wars vanilla was sold in China?

Nope, hadn`t a clue.

There`s no reason for them not to release/make it then

nudge nudge

Sure, if we had an option to move/save the placement, ala Guild Wars, that`d be excellent, but this is beyond irritating :$

It`s been eight months & STILL this happens….

If you can`t handle coding this, will you at least allow the players to make mods to stop this sort of thing from happening?

You closed this thread: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/pvp/wuvwuv/Teabagging-reportable/page/2 …

without stating whether the pseudo emote was a reportable offense or not, can you clarify either way?

The way I see it the person laying dead for five minutes is more reportable for wasting a slot in WvWs that someone else could be using, rather then the ones keeping an eye on his spying, regardless of what they have to do to pass the time wasted whilst spotting his corpse for nefarious activity, or did you close it because of the spying is reportable?

It’s not. It’s common sense. There doesn’t need to be a moderator post to confirm this. It really doesn’t matter either way. Spies will always be there, and people will always emote

Yerp, just what I thought, but then the “Mod`” stated report if offended & closed it without saying either way…

Perhaps it is that.
I`ve no idea if I`d completed it as not been in game world (except for WvWs for months).

I`m guessing the main (or only) ones that`ll gain from this are the bots that pop/vanish all over the map

I got one just to save bag space with picks, can`t swap in combat etc despite having several stacks of several ore already that I`ve no use for lol

I just completed this zone & received no chest or mail from the travellers guild or wtk they`re called.

ZenonSeth.5739:

It’s really hard to stand their accents, but then again I suffer from some pretty bad misophonia when it comes to accents.

But isn’t this the exact same video linked here: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/suggestions/The-Top-10-Things-GW2-Needs-to-Improve/first ?
Answer: YES it is. (thread created by the guy from the video nontheless!) I swear this forum’s 700+ pages can be condensed down to 100 if people didn’t re-post the same things over and over and over….

True there are lots of reposts, but have you tried the search function for this forum?
it is bloody awful.

Test time:
Go to main forum page: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum
Copy/paste the title of this thread & see what it comes up with…
To speed things up, use Firefox (or whatever you`re using) to Find “ArenaNet watch this !!” that you copy/pasted.
Nothing!

Another test:
In the list of what it did find, copy paste the “ArenaNet watch this !!” into search field, do this a few times the finds will change, but chances are it still won`t find the exact thread that you wanted, despite having used the title of the thread.

you want to name it, for the dead gods sake, give us this option already so that when in the crappy downed state, we can just get it over & done with & get back to the game.

Agreed, if it wasn`t for the Mistfire wolf I doubt I`d ever of bothered keybinding the elites & chances are my ele may never of made it to 80.

2300 is slightly better then 0100, I guess ;p

I`ve almost 400 skill points & no use for them, whereas I have a use for having something I cast being allowed to actually cast ;p

@Julival
Right. We’ll talk escapes here. Nothing out-escapes a properly played D/D Ele, not even a Thief.
RTL > L. Flash > Mist. Stealth and Shadowstepping grant better lateral movement, yes. But D/D Ele is the straight-line, forward movement God.

Same old thieves misinformations….

thief mobility > warrior > ele…..

That is proven…
Ele mobility got 3 straight nerfs getting behind warriors…..and seems people are still not happy.

I ve read people to neuter rtl so ele s mobility get near that of mesmers/guardians….paired with healing nerfs…

That seems to be what thieves wants…..
I don t care much because after what i read about reverting last thief nerf, seems complaints war is the way of playing this game….

You win on forums not in game.

Seconded, Thief mobility is a hell of a lot higher then D/D Ele`, even more so since the 25% nerf to RTL.

Advent.6193:

I’d have to say, folk need to leave Thief alone. There’re plenty of things going on that punish a Thief. (And other classes, depending)

What’s left, now? A medium armoured class with the lowest health bar in game, and decently strong DPS. Minimal access to Stability, which kills you in a zerg-vs-zerg fight

They are not the lowest health in the game, Elementalist is, combined with Ele` also having lower armour, Thief out does that stat.
Decently strong dps? LOL! They out dps most, if not all other classes by a long shot.
No idea what Thiefs have Stability wise, though heard they don`t have any wtih others saying very little, so yes, that could do with changing, once they tone down the rest.

by levelling up (whether level 80 already or a lowbie) has been in game since beta, but now even levelling up ranks with the new WvWs thing is also cancelling casts.

Last thing I need is Churning Earth, an already ridiculously long cast being cancelled because of these.

Whilst this error is a pain only from time to time, I recently created a necro & oh my feckin` gawd!
I can`t go 1-2 fights without having the mouse select a pet instead of just letting me move the camera.

fixplox!!

nirvana.8245:

If you consider exploits/glitches, Id say Ele for sure.

What?

Replacing the trees with Autumn trees (no leaves ;p), so we can actually see wtk we`re fighting near Orchard rather then guessing because all we can see is sodding trees…

That or make them walk away to safety ;p

The fact they didn`t need to use it, so why the feck should it be allowed to be triggered.

There has been times when enemy team in front or behind the lead still haven`t activated the bot & to those servers I salute big time, this is meant to pvp.

Oh & big whoop, so some server may of lost everything in one zone by a short time, but they can still be hundreds/thousands of points ahead, but can still be hundreds of thousands of points ahead.

If 15 muppets turn up on the map, stand at some circular area saying “Hey runts, let`s attack this area first, p.s. whilst I sloooowly ponder walk down to that tower, feel free to cap the near by camps.”.
If the idiots can manage to get their kitten into gear to organise enough (of which ten is enough to take a map easily, hell, I ran randomly with one other today & between two of us we took most of one enemy zone.) then ten “pvpers”.

There should be a flag/sigh popping up stating "If you managed to get enough (ten players+) to randomly appear here to attack this map, then do wtk you`re here to do you lazy gits!

Did these players sit there blocking the queue for hours on end awaiting for enough to take a tower?

Sheesh!

/facepalm_gw2_at_times….

Tearing about in WvWs today & so far, twice I`ve cast RTL & at the end of it I`ve been stuck & couldn`t move until I had a Cd available to force movement again.

This has been a bug for a very long time now & seems like it is making a return with a vengeance. :$

Get rid of it now!

We just had 15+ enemy taking our tower when only three of us in the map.
Other night 20-30 against only a few of us.

How the hell did you ever think this was a good idea?
But we know you won`t as common sense rarely prevails, you could quite easily of put a no summon if defenders are outmanned etc.

The so called “DubvDubs” patch has been & gone, & whilst the culling finally turned off the rest is purely pointless & in some cases “titles!” is even worse then before.

Please, set up a PTR so that mistakes like this never happen again.

Mouse over the top of the map/ui, hold left & drag, should fix it.

whilst fighting level 80s & some lowbies…is going seriously wrong today.

I`m playing a level 33, yet the loot I`m getting today is terrible (whilst us WvWers are sort of used to this, today is beyond a joke).

I`ve had so far eight level one items, from spears, shields, mace, swords etc.

Edit: Forgot, I can`t take screenshots, showing tooltips on mouse over also,.

If I have no problem fighting D/D Ele` with what you can see in the images, then no one else (with half a clue) should either…

you are showing a necro and guardian traits.

and you have no problem. none at all ? with that low level. and against a DD ??
umm ye… you know april 1:st was a few days ago… you missed it…
be faster next year.

I main an Ele`, so more used to it then the average bear

Just had fun tonight at Vale, one Drakkars Lake kept killing two of ours (they did run into the buffed guard though hehe) whilst I lived.
I used whatever skill it is for necro that pulled them away from guards, screws with Ele a lot.
Big cloud pet stuns.
Drop staff five to fear whilst res others etc.
Churning Earth is sooo easy to dodge, even if they use lightning.
& so on…

He got me in the end as sentry spawned & stunned me lol
Enjoyed some duels afterwards (on my Ele`).

Yes if one catches me off guard it can be a pain because I don`t have any stun breakers, yet (which is *THE*main reason people complain, that & they don`t come with CCs)…. but everyone ranting they are O kitten o far from the truth

If I have no problem fighting D/D Ele` with what you can see in the images, then no one else (with half a clue) should either…

You see a question in chat & reply lengthily, only to realise you`d typed “/t….” whilst sat in Queensdale in the queue.

Also handy would be priority of highlighting enemy names when you mouse over them, rather then just whomever is stood in front of us.

Trying to click one enemy (instead of a thousand pets, mobs, summoned weapons etc) is near impossible at times.

Phew, i thought I`d lost the plot.
Have also noticed this over the last week or so, definitely looks unusual.

Can`t find the specific patch note, but I was sure it was mentioned that Cata` inside towers can no longer effect rams on the other side of the gate.

Today in Lake tower, I saw the invulnerable as would expect, but enemies on the other side can still hit us through the gate (including your bot/npc commander/dolyak).

Is this how it is meant to be, or just a partial job done on things hitting through gates?

Thought these had been fixed (although maybe I`m a patch or three ahead of myself ), but we`ve had a Thief abusing a spot at the back of Vale camp on Underworld server today.

Should we report these “players” & if so, what option?

Same goes for Charr.
/cringe

Almost forgot the other bonus.
drum roll
You can buy town clothes & fight in them!

Also, if/when you`re about to die, make sure you do not rush towards a spawn point.
You will get spawn camped by mobs

You can jump in Guild Wars, but you have to type /jump to do so ;p
Nightfall best to start as others mentioned, you get Heroes to help/hinder you (daren`t tell that I found this out at level 16 ;p).

The UI may look old (mainly because it is) but you are free to move any part of it to wherever you want, which in my opinion makes the UI far superior to gw2 UI.

Learn to swap your builds constantly, as some things are of more use then others in set dungeons, zones etc. You can save them & switch back easily in any outpost.
There are several sites with builds that you can copy/paste into the game for use.

Most of all, the story. Guild Wars story is brilliant & then some, it is the only game I have thoroughly enjoyed the story, so much that I never got around to doing any pvp. /faints ;p

^ what they said.
Guardians heal is sooo much higher then Ele`.
I fought some Guardian in WvWs, we were both bunker builds & even though I could heal a lot, he did a hell of a lot more damage, plus they get passive blocks. Even then, the fight went on for roughly 20 minutes with some from my server watching, until even they got bored

As for nerfing D/D bunker build, they (Anet) really need to get off of their arses & fix the rest first, before destroying one build.

It takes 1-2 stuns to completely shut down any D/D Ele` & if the enemy can`t do that, it is their fault alone. But this is exactly why they nerfed RTL by 25%, because of the QQers.

If others went bunker I`m guessing they`d be even more tanky & do more damage then any Ele` could build.
