Guild Wars 2

^ what they said.

Staff is the Knock knock of weapons in this game, more so for Ele`.
Opt for Scepter & Focus/Dagger or Dagger/Dagger.

That combined with Ele` getting nerfed all the time, good luck

Azaruil.3406:

NPCS use more cc abilities than most players I come across. It is a bit ridiculous

Especially mid lake lately, constant stun fest :$

Swimsasa Stoon.8936:

one of the downed skills is mistform so if you jump down and just attack close to the gate and the moment you’re downed you mistform back through the gate and rez etc. rinse and repeat. Not a single class out there that can do the same.

You can be dragged away from the gate by Rangers, Mesmers etc or blocked by Guardians.
You can be killed in Vapor form, even Immobilised, though most players are terribad enough that they forget

I go roaming. Bag/weapon swapping is a waste of time

Yeah I just realized that you cant weapon swap with eles anyway isnt this class squishy to be roaming alone? or did you mean by group?

Thanks for the input btw

Yep it is squishie, but with practice you can escape most fights with a win, except for scum like Thief that just stealths constantly….

I go roaming. Bag/weapon swapping is a waste of time

It`s crap.

All too easy for a zerg or three to stand back whilst their golems melt doors & first time you see orange swords is when glance at map to wp from defending another spot & they are already in Lords room.

No idea if this was good for higher tiers, but generally yet another fail idea…

Sticking here as too many to report & I`m not incurring repair costs whilst your ui locks me from doing anything

Underworld borders in WvWs is infested with bots for the last 2-3 days, making them also contest our Hills & Bay at times.

Have fun.

To the DZ in Uw bl at Hero, nice placement of Balista & an arrow cart.

Can I ask though, once set up & a few of us UW charged the lot of you, why didn`t you even fire off one shot? lol

Was a fun evening though.

Also to the RoS at Faith (or similar name) in their zone, sorry we (Ele & Guardian) farmed you but we only came for the daily Dolyaks & you did hit us first

Agreed. If they don`t want addons so we could, say place countdown timers, make them all reset at the same time.
The WvWs one is more of a pain then any dragon is anyway ;p

tbh you`re way better off with auto target disabled, it`ll cause you more stress then anything, trust me

As for deselecting, this game you need RMB to turn about, camera etc, which I`ve generally got held down almost 100% of the time, which means when you press LMB dozens of times to deselect someone/thing, all you are doing is making your character walk forwards. (Bad Anet, BAD! grabs newspaper)

You could try mashing Escape key, but that also stops your cast, looting etc & finally drops your target, but because you are bashing Escape, it also stops you from moving where you were &/or stops whatever cast you are also trying to do afterwards.

wtb more binds for each of these things, would make life kitten loads more easier!

Then the game has been bugging me from WvWs since beta & live.
The “B” tab shows blank, always has done.

Unknown isn`t a map I want to enter, I want to enter home borders before seeing what mess the rest is in…

Edit: This is almost as bad as when servers reseet, I click Uw borders & it ALWAYS sends me to one of the others.

Hey folks.

With recent changes, Underworld (& I bet loads of other servers) are nearly none stop overflow shards these days.

This now means I have to go to Lags Arch or the middle of some zone hoping no one else is filling that one also, just to enter WvWs.

Can you put some way on the “B” tab page so that we can enter from anywhere?

Fifth`d.
One handed sword, third skill bugs more often then not

Please fix, as long as it is nothing like the mess you made of Ele D/D 3 skill…

It definitely made a huge change.
Plenty of times I`ve not been able to catch up with enemy players that I more then likely could pre-whack a mole-nerfage.

i wouldn`t mind if they`d given us weapon swap so we could at least do something ranged, but that`d be too easy

It has meant I end up going through all attunements twice before it is even ready to use again, but I`ll have to live with that.

Worse is my damage seems much lower since the patch, by quite a lot.

To the Charr Guardian I was fighting/duelling at Hero & then Water village in UW side (forgotten your name D`Oh!).

Enjoyed that scrap, even though took aaages
Couple our side were jokingly placing bets hehe

Still confused when finally downed you didn`t just heal up as I moved out of range, but ah well.

Didn`t find the two that interrupted our earlier scrap, I don`t know who they were, but I will find them, I will kill them >;)

My theory is that if it only takes ten players to mobilise the bot, I mean npc commander, then it should be the same for orange swords.

You can have them all, at the cost of a few silver to switch back to whichever you need at the time.

Started doing story modes yesterday to get shot of the green star when came across two problems in this part.

When you get asked to light the beacons, it locked my Mesmer weapon swap.

Also, I used an xp booster because I knew there were lots of mobs in this one & not once did I get any xp for killing them, let alone any extra.

Digikid.7230:

In the meantime, I’ll be sitting here with my engis downed skills…. the one that pulls the opponent to me x.x
All the strong classes have awesome downed abilities, it’s really quite depressing as a engi player

Yeah that one still shocks me.

I made an Engie because I wanted to try something fun. Got downed when in mid-20s & moused over skills & thought “wtf!? That has to be a tooltip error”.

It got deleted very shortly after.

Ray.2640:

Sceinna.3561:

I know it’s ironie, just saying ele is way too OP compared to other classes so what you do in your videos is nothing special at all, you’re just roflstomping noobs with an OP class, I only watch them for the intro which is entertaining really.

Guardian is only “OP” by survivability, but ele literally has everything.. crazy heals, getaways, mobility, dps..

I’d like some of the stuff you’re smoking.

Can I have mine in the form of magic brownies please as I don`t smoke?
Must be some kitten fine stuff!

Rare visit into EB lead to some moosing about.

Periflor, Shearman, Wazzuck & meeeeeeeeee

Definitely a case of “Search the forums/learn to play” I`m afraid.

Immobilize them, they won`t go anywhere.
If you`ve already used your Immobilize skill, then that isn`t the Elementalists fault, but don`t worry, too many QQers kittening about RTL got that whack-a-mole nerfed so no doubt Anet will do the same with Vapor Form.

P.S. This skill is only of use at a keep & is a complete waste of time anywhere else.
Ele` downed, casts Vapor Form, enemy mob/player just roleplay walks along side it & starts the downed action again. Dead Ele`.

What`s that you say? Ele` Vapor Form`d off of a cliff & into water whilst you stayed to fight the others.
Chase him, kill him, laugh at your free loot!

Offense meant but it isn`t that difficult.

I`ve been to the Shadow Behemoth twice today & had no chest spawn.
I haven`t been there since yesterday, so the chest is either bugging for some players or just doesn`t like them…

on Underworld border map, the one nearest the bridge to Hills, isn`t capping when I stand there, yet it just did when Dolyaks walked through it.

The staff finally dropped?
Where from please?

You didn`t sound rude, found that page, but as I listed, they are story or pve ones.
I don`t do pve (bores me senseless ;p).
I`ve got the Memoires one.
Which is why I asked about Vendor ones & the wiki doesn`t list any, but seeing as it isn`t often up to date, I asked here

I saw the Charred back pack on the TP, that`s the type I mean.
I`ve got the Mad Memoires, but don`t want to skin that as the glow is handy in dark places

Just sort of surprised there don`t seem to be any that I can find.

Any one know if there are any available via Karma vendors etc?

From what I can see these are only available via PvE or the one off story

DamnThoseNames.8791:

common dz….. killing some innocent animals makes u happy

Those poor poor animals.
Disney nightmare come true…

P.S. Moooooo!

Was defending this tower after the patch, standing behind a parapet when some Warrior was managing to hit me whilst behind the small wall segments.

Either their Rifle or your walls have bugged out re:LoS.

Mod`, I stuck this in Bugs because I assumed it was.
If not, feel free to delete instead of sticking it here…

send you out to LA for a new patch.

The group of us just capping a tower were amazed we finally got a decent warning system, so much so I mentioned it on /t.
At last we all thought, we can go where we want to rather then Lags Arch!

Well, there goes that theory, because ten seconds later we were all booted out to LA.

Logged off, no patch, logged in & five whole minutes later we got the patch warning.

Can we please have a better warning system or if this is bugged can we have a fix?

Not as bad as I was expecting, had even started fast levelling a Mestard just in case ;p

But let me get this right, because some kitten is too slow to click Immobilise on their skill (lol, skill…) bar they decide to nerf RTL?

“If you had 1,000 monkeys and 1,000 typewriters, then in 1,000 years they would eventually come up with a better balancing system”

Sticking this tidbit for those like me that don`t touch Reddit & haven`t see it get a mention anywhere in the GW2 sites

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/196tgh/jeuxonlineinfo_made_an_interview_with_mike/

So there I was, sat on my lowbie Mesmer in UW borderlands, my home, when two to three times five RoS hit me & downed me in seconds, as would happen, when all of a sudden they did /laugh so many times I bet their chat got blocked.

Really kiddies? 5v1 makes you laugh?
Oddly, it made me laugh when I logged my main & eventually (by accident) ran into you & what do you know, you all died & I got the last laugh.
Such a shame we can`t target the dead, wouldv`e made a nice bbq/picnic >;)

/cackle

This is why I`m personally going out of my way to charge after RoS rather then DZ (don`t get me wrong, red is dead, but priorities hehe (also I know this was just five kiddies, the rest of RoS have been okay))

I have enjoyed some fights this week, sort of making me enjoy the game again, almost ;p

To the two Guardians that were at Vale [HON] I think someone said. Wow, you two were tanky, I enjoyed those fights

Looking forward to meeting you again, perhaps for a picnic over some RoS cacklers?

Oh, to the glass cannon Warrior, kitten you hit hard. Perhaps next few times we clash, don`t have your wp option on screen, it blocks your shiny firey armour/sword

Right, back to the war.

Shademehr.1397:

Ynot.8397:

I’m not sure how I feel about breakout style events. Those seem almost cheaty to me.

I love them AND hate them. When “Server A” has 100% of their own borderlands, 100% of EB, and most of “Server B”, there is no way in heck that they should be able to start a breakout event in “Server C”.

Server B however should be able to start a breakout event in Server A’s lands.

Agree 100%.

The only way a break out event mess should be started is if some server is a set number of points behind the other one or two servers.

Not a few hundred points or something silly either.

Add moveable UI.
All of it & make sure it saves, even after new patches ;p

How do we do these in game, with a player highlighted?
We`ve had to tolerate a Mesmer from RoS abusing the invulnerable spot in WvWs all day & when trying to report (this loooooooong over due fix/bug) there is no option for it.

Tried selecting players in WvWs today to add to party, via clicking the party invite/leave options, it wouldn`t let us, nor vice versa.

Shame it isn`t like Guild Wars.
If something was needed patching, you got a message saying it would patch the next time you started the game.
Fairly sure pre-release they said it`d be the same for gw2 /shrugs
Understandable if it was something urgent, but otherwise…

Can`t help you website wise, but there`re probably loads of free chat s`ware.
One me & cronies use is C3

EU (Underworld).
This just tops the regular crashes since the last patch, but I`m back on (for now)

https://twitter.com/DragonSeasonCom/status/304249153335218176

I really hope this is yet another wind up…

I`ve been having the same problem, hope they find a fix fast.

Ditto, got me stuck in that position whilst duelling in spvp for roughly half a minute.

emikochan.8504:

Can a guard even beat a player? I’d rather they just res as fast as possible.

Yep, they can although I`m not sure how it happens.
Fair few times I`ve gotten to a camp only to find someone dead or in the process of dying

Just an (obvious) idea.

How about when a guard is resurrecting me, another player, guard etc, how about if they are being attacked, they don`t just sit there taking it, they actually fight back?

;)

Quote: “3 seconds stun is a lot, and a wall that blocks pathing can be very overpowered.”

You mean just like Guardians wall & bubbles?

Quote: "Since you cannot dodge through the edges without getting the stun, static field does exactly what you want it to: lock an opponent in place. "

You can, I`ve regularly dodged though static fields in WvWs, although whether meant to be able to/a bug I`ve no idea.

Surely you fine chaps aren`t trying to elude as to Thiefs needing a nerf when it is clearly Elementalists….

http://www.twitch.tv/helsethgw2/c/1935123

P.S. Sarcasm mode was on full there

I recall all those times I`ve played since beta & during live that my Ele` used to one shot all other profess…no wait, that never happened.

P.P.S.

I just tried creating the following in WvWs & LA Mystic Forge & it will not craft in either.

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Lidless_Eye

I`ve checked my mats several times just in case, but the Forge button remains blank.
