Guild Wars 2

I hate every time balancing team does this.. they take a lot of the warriors current efficiency just to make these meaningless buffs that are ignored regardless.. so it’s just an overall performance nerf with the 13% shave off primal burst cooldowns.

Definitely have to do something about his greens not appearing.. I ran with 8 people that needed that achievement.. and he messed everyone over twice because of that.

This class requires a lot of practice.. and anet decided to cut it’s damage due to master eles putting out a lot more damage than other classes.

So now you’re stuck doing all those rotations to put out less damage than a guard on big targets who does half the work you’re doing.

Ragnarox.9601:

problem is when you need to:

kite:
- warrior he just pop his f1 and 1.1k hp/s regen = full hp
cc:
warrior pops out his f1 and perma stability is up = no cc’s for you. (its like fighting full rampage warrior)

So warrior is pretty much immune to stuns + kiting unless you are a Thief who can just go out of fight and come back in with teleports and backstab him. This just need to be toned down. They have too much now without any disadvantage. Hopefully it will be dealt with in next balance patch….hopefully…

Hopefully anet doesn’t listen to people like you who did not play warrior when hot first came out.. everything could kill a warrior like a ping pong. Took anet a lot of work to get it on competitive terms

EthanLightheart.9168:

the survivability of this class is ridicolous at the moment. All that condi cleanse, resistance -no counter for anyone..

Yeah right.. try fighting a good condi mesmer with all that.. and you’ll go from wanting warrior nerf to saying how cancerous mesmers are.

Ahh Mesmer moa’d me, ahh he freaking stun the hell out of me, he disappeared.

Actually I want to say that tier 6 leather is ridiculous from salvaging leather.

I salvaged 250 bags of gear which only netted 9 leathers which would go on to only refine 3 cured.

The chance of getting a tier 6 leather from salvage is extremely low as oppose to everything else. I think you have a better output from champ bags, which is still not efficient.. but what else can you do?

Edit- Of course you can save your tier 5 leather and upgrade them, it’s a gamble.. but probably worth the trouble with luck

hasnt been that long since warrior got nerfed.

It was a small mini nerf, and it wasn’t enough.

Which is fine. I prefer mini nerfs over big sweeping crushing nerfs. But clearly the warrior needs more mini nerfs.

Mini nerfs with mini buffs no one will use like that hammer nonsense. Adrenal heal has already gotten a 20% nerf and people are demanding more.

They take and not properly give back until they finally make the huge nerf that kills the class

Condi warrior vs power warrior. Condi warrior wins? Yeah right

Power warrior shrugs condis while dishing massive damage to condi warrior… condi warriors regens can’t sustain the massive damage from the burst, and to seal the deal if condis actually do become a threat… Pop berserker stance and healing signet.

I actually have 950 shards that are just rotting, I will not be using their silly pve crafting system to spend these tokens.

While we did get a short warning, a bunch of people don’t frequent the forum and these changes made we’re incredibly more demanding.. thus people have scrapped the idea of ever using them.

I mean seriously who on here is very excited to use this new mark + crafting system?

Ok is not ok for a class that struggles to survive.. why be ok when you can be chilling, take a hit if you mess up and let condis work the dps for you.

Hard to believe fractals came out just three months after the game released. Even more that they are still being made center of attention

Keep in mind that they nerfed overload last balance patch by 10% so that’s 17% dps down the drain on top of it’s neutered Meteor storm

And you gotta love the typical response, and it’s still the highest dps. But if that continues.. Eles will not be worth playing because of other classes dishing out respectable damaage and still able to take hits.

It’s a stupid senseless mechanic with no real reason to even be there.

No attack count should be hitting for zero.. it’s just down right unfair. It’s like hundred blades hitting a target.. and on a hit the target becomes immune to the next two attacks.

Why should the target get immunity.. especially the larger hit box where it’s suppose to shine… now it’s not ok.

I main warrior.. and I think Eles didn’t deserve this terribly balance design

guess it’ll be a while longer

Then use another currency to follow through these changes

Introduce another currency for PvP? Do you even realize how long it would take? They have to add the new currency, create special vendor for it, create icons, set them as rewards in seasons, introduce them in crafting recipies, test everything to see if it works properly, create data and information in game and in wiki, and so much more work.

It took ‘em 4 months to drop a few seconds from unused (balance safe) spells. Introducing a new currency would take a year. Please stop asking such questions. It’s much easier to add some new item crafted from current PvE content, and push it to vendor. No testing is required. This is the most efficient and time saving solution. We should be happy, because it could have been worse… for example they could have not add anything in game. Any content is better than no content at all. We now have a new item in game.

A year? right.

I’m fine with nothing, what I’m not fine with is here take this… ok we’ll just take it back, you can have it back but first you gotta go jump off a cliff.

I want to voice my opinion as well.. I was saving my 750 tokens.. and forgot to use them a couple of nights ago because I was not sure what pieces to get at the time.

Now.. I can’t do anything with them, nor have the motivation to follow through with these changes..

The least they could have done is scrap Ascended shards with a merchant that still allowed you to use them for the same cost, like the merchant in the Priory that still sells the potions for Halo and Horns. Then use another currency to follow through these changes

Only thing I can think people saying is.. it reeks of slavery =p

I agree with the downstate penalty…

I had a two vs one fight in which I was fighting a druid and a guard… I downed the guard at least three times the fight, and the druid kept ressing him over and over before I can get a stomp in, not cool.

Remember when these things we’re 3-5 silvers a piece? Got a few months in.. need more? Boom buy them

Now a days.. 81 freaking silvers, umm no thanks. Think how your bills are always rising and your income remains the same LOL

Best way to nerf this class is to make traps activate each other if they are place on top of each other.. It makes no sense being able to put a trap on top of another trap…

This makes it so the user has to actually use his traps wisely.. and not just dump them all on one point… then some one comes and insta downs due to excessive damage.

I mean it doesn’t stop them from spamming them all while actively fighting.. but at least you won’t be entering a fight with 80% of your health gone when you hit their stash of traps.

Like some one had mentioned.. I want something else to burn my magnetite shards on..

I would gladly appreciate if they tossed in Tier 6 crafting bags at a reasonable price.. I mean they already tossed laurel bought things in there like the trinkets that are totally not worth the shard price.

A slight increase to the post rewards would sprinkle my interest in redoing them even more.

Sure let’s go back to where the game was already over at the start, free pips to the winning side while the losers just sat and waited

Ok so I’m at a state where I win lose win lose.. in an endless loop

It was broken by one of the opponent’s players d/cing on a match I was due to Lose.. and oh my freaking god.. 4v5 and they nearly Crushed us. These dudes we’re literally throwing the match.

I nearly felt bad for the opponents having to work harder due to being short one, and even more for myself to be stuck with such incompetent players it was embarrassing.

I just can’t seem to advance.. the more days that pass still stuck in ruby the more worrisome it becomes because I need to cross to Diamond to finish my achievements.

The problem there is.. I can’t progress at all.. it’s been a week since I got into Ruby and that’s after I blew a lot of losses in sapphire getting seven kills with other classes.

Now I’m halfway through ruby and for the past week it’s win lose win lose win lose win lose lose win win lose.

it’s very discouraging

So anyways you have two options.. solo queue and pray to god you get lucky wins..

Or premade and get paired up some of the most craziest pvpers in the game against your team constantly to make you disband.

Jesus Christ will I ever get out of Ruby.. at this rate

I lost a pip cause some one d/ced… the whole match and showed up when we lost..

It’s gonna be hard getting out of Ruby that’s for sure, been stuck on the first tier for a while now. I hate to see how the other four tiers left in Ruby will be like ><

Ubik.8315:

Afks, afks every single game. I have no idea why GW2 has such a toxic ranked playerbase, but it does. Easily one of the worst playerbases I’ve ever seen.

It’s cause they’re clones of each other, act exactly the same, call people out exactly the same, and use the same lame insults and then think they’re cute and original.

Yeah, it’s hard to find four others that know their stuff and their class… You’d have to be in a crazy pvp centered guild for that, and practiced with them.

quickest way to get out of there. Log+character select Done

Been seeing lots of guardians, with Ele out of the picture people are going back to that.

Also.. I see the same if you have a few bad matches the rest of your team is going to suck till you get bored of losing.

If they want to keep this fractal the way it is.. they need to up the rewards… cause I simply don’t want to work triple overtime just for the same junk I was already making when he was a push over.

I love how all the generic praises.. Oh it’s perfect good job anet, oh we did it in 20 mins loved it… have absolutely no backing. Seems rather fishy

The reality, this fractal needs to be looked at and toned down, there are many complaints about the speed level of the boss combined with one shotting capabilities and annoying waiting factors before being able to damage it.

That is strange indeed.. but I haven’t heard any other thief main point that out yet.

All this talk about pvp lol..

To heck with that, engis we’re barely allowed for one raid boss.. now this insured that anyone who mains engi will never see a raid again.

I don’t main ele but these nerfs seemed like a silly address complains from people..

Staff/fresh air we’re utter lazy nerfs in an attempt to fix Raid comp, and guess what? People are still not going to take Engis/thieves/guards to raids and if so.. barely one. And you know why? They did nothing to make people want to take them, really nice balancing.

As for pvp, I don’t think we’ll be seeing many Eles this season

bearshaman.3421:

So basically, if you play pvp you hate this patch, if you play pve you’re fine with it. I think that’s the trend I’m seeing.

pve got nerfed as well.. it’s not just pvp, it’s a game wide nerf

Tanit Ithil.3871:

Zdenny.2704:

thefinnster.7105:

we are supposed to be a physically weak class with high dmg output

yeah unkillable physcally weak class.. eles before this patch was no way a physcally weak class. It has high sustain and this CD nerf was reasonable for healthy matches.

The world doesn’t revolve around PVP. These nerfs impact every build.

Yeah I’d like to see this dude go through a whole round of Matthias and not go down once as an Ele.. Then we’ll talk about unkillable

I really hope they change this… it’s one of those changes for the worst.

At least put the track on pvp as well.. so I’m actually not bored to death

I’d seriously be more concern with Mystic coins… I mean use karma to convert for those mats.. and or Open gear loot you’ve hoarded with appropriate leveled toons.

Mystic coins on the other hand.. yeah

But the scream at the end is the best part

Nero.8047:

Patience young grasshopper.

You do realize it’s been out in achievements for seven months.. you’d think they’d already have a design for it by now.

Best part is having to fight them again as soon as you got stomped the last match by them.

99% of people? Almost every guild I know that has Guilded hollow has a way to get up there. It’s not hard to do with the right decos

I agree though, it’s something else.. especially during those special hours

One d/c of any kind.. one that crashes the game, or throws you back to the character select and no wvw tonight for you.

Seriously.. they need to stop doing that,

Now everyone will be afraid to invest at something that works.. because the devs will more than likely ruin all efforts and make everyone reroll to something else that involves gold to change.

Mesmer didn’t deserved to be nerfed to the ground like that.. and I don’t even play a mesmers.. in fact I hate them with a passion.. but still

Problem with this…

You are doing crazy events… with hard hitting enemies.. you die.. wp back and try to run back. Oh guess what you don’t deserve credit because you went off
