Isaiah Cartwright.8569:

We do plan on adding more stat combo to existing ascended item types as well as adding more stat combos to new types.

~Izzy @-’—-

When?

So, at the end, no changes to AOE?
Too much noise for nothing.

“One of the issues brought up a lot in WvW./sPvP is AoE (Area of Effect). We feel like they are too strong at the moment and a lot of people in WvW are gaming the system using AoEs.

For people that don’t know – max targets for siege weapons is 50 while max targets for AoE is 5.

Reducing AoE effectiveness to bring them in line with the single target damage skills.

Major update coming to all the AoE skills – make classes that are good at single target damage stand out a bit more.

Same thing with dungeons – right now if you have a lot of AoE you can past encounters by just spamming AoE which is not what we want."

and? Your post only say: Thieves and warriors will be better than now!

My expectations
main hand dagger second hand dagger ele:
All fire, water, air and earth skills ( earth 1 isnt affected by this ) now inflict 66% less damage if the skills hit only 1 target. The effect is greatly increased if there are some enemys near.

Staff ele:
All fire, water, air, earth ( water 1 and earth 1 isnt affect by this ) now inflict 66% less damage if the skills hit only a1 target. The effect is greatly increased if there are some enemys near.

Scepter ele:
Fire 2 and 3, water 2 and earth 3 now inflict 66% less damage if the skills hit only a1 target. The effect is greatly increased if there are some enemys near.

Bunker ele:

Dont know but some hard nerf.

Seems a joke, but no. I really think this will happen.

welcome to the country of zhaitan!

Grevender.9235:

they may as well remove daggers from ours weapon set, as they will become utterly useless after the nerf; and get rid of the staff too, while you are at it.
Well, at least give us a sniper rifle…

May as well just remove the class from the game if we are just going to keep getting nerfed ..

Hey, this will be the 3rd game I’ve played that mages got overnerfed and population of which died.

So much for gw2 and “play your own style” (more like “bunker guardian or thief)

Fixed

“No waypoint rez use in dungeons until the whole party wipes. It seemed pretty clear to me, though I don’t know if maybe I missed something? It’s to prevent people from just WPing as soon as they die and running at the boss mindlessly without any actual tactic. Party wipe >WP > regroup is what they’re going for.”

then the boss will reset! that’s not cool. being able to get back in time to finish the boss off is very satisfying if a group makes it back in time to do so. obviously they want the bosses to reset more often, as tough or cheap as some of them are.

idk i thought boss-zerging was a valid tactic to keep them from resetting.

This system is for punish every minimum error. If you fail your combo and you saty in melee and the boss kill you, your party is punished for 1 error. Even if you have some lag and you suffer a great AoE of the boss and you die, your party will be punished. Sad, but true.

From dulfy’s transcript:
we don’t want you to use AoE skills on single target mobs."

The problem here is that, for staff eles and staff necros, we use aoe skills on single targets because we don’t have many single target spells. Ele staff fire 2 and Necro staff 2,3 are all AoE skills I use in every fight because they are a necessity.

This is why they need to introduce more viable builds for certain classes…. and they said in the interview that they would. I would be shocked if any AoEs stats were changed before they add more build options to the heavy AoEs reliant classes.

But I don’t want to be *forced into melee just because my ranged options are AoE heavy*

Welcome to eles World! We only have 2 skills ( in d/d ) that isn’t AoE. So now, we will only use earth 1 for kill enemys So fuuuuunnn. NO.

now i will stop craft my legendary dagger… D/D ele will be nerfed as hell.
Some times i think that developers dont play their own game…

Ele bunker is really strong?
Really?? The ele bunker is ACTUALLY the ONLY way that ele can be useful in Tpvp. Maybe the GC ele ( glass cannon ) can be useful but is too team-dependant.
Well… At least we know that ele will be nerfed seriously… AoE dmg reduced, bunker ele nerfed…

“If your skil does 10 damage to a single target, if you have another skill that have the same opportunity cost but deals 8 damage to 5 targets, the AoE skill is better – we don’t want you to use AoE skills on single target mobs.”

Some clases, Ele for example, have a lot of AoE skills and he need to use it bcoz he dont have another skill to use. This will affect the elementalist and the actual gameplay with it? I dont know how to use an ele without use AoE skills ( i cant )… With this build click here you can see that ele only have 2 skills ( ele have a total of 20 skills ) that hit to 1 enemy. This means that if you reduce the damage of AoE you are killing totally the d/d ele because you CANT kill an enemy without use your AoE skills…

Have a good night.

LinseyMurdock.4165:

Lionguard Lyns will be returning in the end of January build without the Black Lion Keys in her inventory. She will then remain up for everyone to liquidate their Commendations and will likely be leaving entirely after about a month.

so, what happens with the ppl that have tons of commendations only for buy keys? You MUST announce it first and THEN delete the keys from the merchant… Some guild mates has spend tons of gold making exotics for commendations for keys…
Sincerely you cant put one item in the game, Deactivated for excessive buys and then delete it without give to the player a opportunity for spend their items in what they want.
Totally unfair, please think in dont do it.

me too
i do not have any lag
Sorry mate, but sure is your problem Call to your ISP if you have lag or DC problems.

The nude bug is really… WTH? hahahaha I never seen it >.<

omg! ppl killing other in a pvp area!
Sorry mate but its a part of the game. Deal with it and be happy.

Karazul.2934:

Why arent we good for conditions?
We can mantain 100% uptime for burning and stack 20+ bleeds easily. I tested…

bcoz conditions builds need a great base survivability. Necros has a 15K base health. Mesmers can use their clones/phantasms, rangers has a lot of dps, high range and medium armor…
Elementalist have light armor, 10K base health. is totally skill-depend. You cant put your traits into condition without lost health, armor or power.
but, if you really enjoy condition damage, you are not completely lost. You can put on your elementalist the power, vitality, condition damage and trait it with some armor/health/power. With runes, you can use soldier or some that has vitality or armor.
Elementalist are really strong but are not designed for full condition damage. Is painful but is the real game.

nottsgman.8206:

what Star Reaver said is right, they can be found in CoE chests, and also in Fractals

so, charged cores only drop there? Some guild mates said me that maybe with air elemmentals of lvl 6x can drop it but i dont know where are they…

The tittle says all. I need to do the gift of light for my sunrise. But charged lodestones are too much farmed. I know that in the MF you can put 2 cores + wine + dust + crystal and you get a lodestone. But i dont know where can i farm cores.

150 shards ( more or less ) for my 77 clovers.
50 traits ( x1 recipe) and only 1 clover. Then, i craft 8 x10 recipe and get 70 clovers. Then, i need around 20 taits for 7 clovers.
Now i need a way for farm karma for the 250 shards >.<

no please. Inspecting players only cause a “ruin builds” bcoz every body can see my equipment or my build. I have a great build and i dont want to share it with anybody, why i must be forced to do it?

I’m actually looking for a build to use conjure weapons… Can you tell me what builds you use with conjures? I’m thinking in a power/vitality/toughness but maybe a set with condition damage can be better…

sorry but no. Conjure weapons rlz just need a bit fix and some trait to make them useful

you only rally when you KILL ( finish ) an enemy. A enemy downed dont rally you.

I found a way to fix this problem.

Delete your Local.dat file ( located in yourt guild wars 2 folder ( X:/program files/guildwars2 ) )
Restart your computer
Execute your guild wars 2

i have the same problem… We need help :S

“-Added an ELO-based ranking system.”

Please, NO. The ELO system is for Chess. In a game when other people is necessary for win is an error put the elo system. Other pople can troll you ( afk, for example ) and you lose games. I saw too many ppl spaming their heal skill and standing afk in the waypoint.

@shrewd you are joking yeh?

In this week i will create a damage table with my elementalist vs a thief, warrior, guardian and mesmer. And Devs and all can see our “joke” damage compared with other classes.

The Arah’s doors are closed. Actually, mesmers are using their portals for enter to the dungeon, ignoring the door and “exploiting” a bug that allow to the mesmers, enter to Arah even when the door is closed. Too many people are using this exploit actually in Baruch Bay.

As everyone explained to you in /map channel it is a bug with the chain of events that lead to open the gates. The waypoint is not contested, is ours…but the doors are closed.

What mesmers are doing is use the portal skill inside, use the waypoint (outside) and let everyone in (for free, no money exploit there).

Is a way around the bug…I don’t think this is an exploit in any way, I’d apreciate if a Dev could solve this.

Here is a link to a topic on this issue https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Gates-of-Arah-events

And there is no way a mesmer or any other class can get pass the doors (besides the one of the portal), for this to happen there had to be a mesmer inside the gates previously the event bugged. So once he was inside he was able to do what I have already explained.

On a side note, please solve as son as possible the problem with the gates of arah events…it’s frustrating.

Thanks for your time

i dont care if the event is bugged or not. Actually, mesmers ( and all ppl that use the portals ) can enter to the dungeon even when the doors are closed. Closed = no enter IMO

The Arah’s doors are closed. Actually, mesmers are using their portals for enter to the dungeon, ignoring the door and “exploiting” a bug that allow to the mesmers, enter to Arah even when the door is closed. Too many people are using this exploit actually in Baruch Bay.

More simple. Put a minimal reuse ( 40 milisesc) for all thieves skills. This system block the “spam” skills.

The problema with Mist form ( downed state ) is that is a “insta ress – insta death” skill. Each time you use it, the system “think” that you die again and put you a mark.
So, if you use it 2 or 3 times you’ll insta die.

Only a change for main dagger? Other weapons ( scepter for example ) need a little revision imo.

I created a Thief today only for spvp and, i think is a exploit or bug, I win all games always in 1, 2 or 3 position… Then, i stop play him and use again my elementalist.
Thief is really PURE noob and easy reward hero. I dont change runes, traits or weapons, just enter to spvp and spam 1, 2 and 3. Sometimes i use heal for escape. I just changed my elite ( more thieves rlz ).
I really prefer my elementalist, even if i cant kill a bunny.

I doubt it, I think you got owned pretty hard. Noob Thieves can’t do a thing vs me, doubt you would win against me on your Thief or Elementalist

now you can back to your cave.

A second bar called “mentality” that allow us have more power and lesser reuser while we have “mentality”. Each skill consume a part of these “mentality”. When we have 0 “mentality” we have lesser power and more reuse. This could be the better buff for elementalist.

One idea for “fix” elementalist can be give it a “mentality” barr that allow us have more powerfull skills and lesser reuse. Each skill consume a part of these “mentality” and when we have 0 mentality we do lesser damage and have more reuse. This, allow have a great damage and allow us dont spam skills everytime.

still bugged in Baruch Bay :/

A clan mate was hacked 1 week ago ( i think ) and no response from customer service… Actually he is a bit disappointed with Anet :S
For your security, use a e-mail ONLY for this game. Use a password ONLY for this game.
If you think that you have a virus on your computer, don’t log in.
You can download a ubuntu. Burn it into a CD/DVD and don’t install it ( use the “try” option )Then go to the web page ( guildwars2.com ), log in and change your password and e-mail. Then, go to windows and use a GOOD antivirus tool. I recommend Avira Antivir and Malwarebytes AntiMalware. Both are totally free ( they have their paid version but isn’t necessary )
With this tools you are “99%” secure from attacks and viruses.
Remember dont tell your game account or password. Only execute the game in a secure system ( avoid public places or public wi-fi)

i also try to find some info about this. In divinity’s reach, some NPCs say that “soon” they open the activity.
So, maybe this is a future feature.

Elementalist are fine yes, but if you compare it with other class is underpower. Other classes do more damage, more easy and have more def than you. If, the elementalist have a LOW defense, but can do a high damage, i dont care. But, if we have a LOW defense, and a “decent” damage, we are wrong. Elementalist need: More damage, or more defense. And, more defense on a caster is a stupid idea.
Other classes can hit me ( as elementalist ) by 800-1000 from autoattacks. I hit them for 200-500. My skills can hit enemys for a max of 2000 ( supposed that i do a critical ) Enemys skills can hit me for 5000-6000-15000… Something is wrong. :/

So, he left the game bcoz he cant farm in dungeons? QQ
Actually, farm dungeons is a joke. For example: Arah: 2 first bosses and repeat. This system SUCKS. The dungeon is designed for do it completely. If you want your “marks” you must finish it. And, a low “CD” ( about 6-12 hours ) make that the game became to a farm game where only do 2 bosses and repeat. This kind of situations ruin the game. Why you only do the first 2 bosses? Bcoz they are easy and the rest **** us.
If you want farm “marks” learn to play, and learn how to do the new dungeons instead QQ.
All abuses have a bad end.

But still the thieves says that we only cry and their class is balanced. This is a really a good example…
But, if thieves continue “abusing” their “power” they suffer nerfs and nerfs… Bad but fair.

I think that the high level characters in a low level zone have more attack/defense than low level characters. Imo i adjust more the “nerf” for allow high players have a real risk while they explore.

100% agree with the OP… We really need a change or buff.

Where can i find the new mystic forge recipes?

The problem with the events is the ZERG. Remember this: ZERG > all. Even with the “more people, more difficult” some events are a joke when there are 10-15 ppl. I think that will be improved the difficult when more ppl are in the event.

Please, fix it. I hope that in the future, this errors never happen.
American servers have the skill points correctly. Go there!

Thanks you Anet! Its really a amazing game! A lot of content and a lot of hidden content.
