ZudetGambeous.9573:

According to the devs, access to a second health bar means a class should not have access to the following skills:

-Block
-Invuln
-Vigor
-Stealth
-mobility

Since mesmer now has access to a second health bar via their new f5 shatter skill, please remove the above from all mesmer skills to maintain balance, thank you.

/Uses Chronomancer ability to rewind time and prevent this thread from ever happening

lol someone had to say it.

RabbitUp.8294:

Or you can activate them “only” 2 times and avoid putting them on their regular cooldown at all. I’m sure Pvp will enjoy 20 seconds of Moa every 90 seconds.

LOL casting Moa 3 times. This can give birth to Moamancer builds : P

DeceiverX.8361:

OPTION 2:
A character-based dialog menu which allows for the input of bonus character stats which would equate to those roughly obtained from the existing trait system, allowing for the selection of three primary stats and two secondary ones and to not adjust stats from gear.

I like this the best because it gives players more control over the stats of their build without worrying about gear as much.

I have multiple Ascended armor sets on various classes and I took a long break from this game.

My greatest concern is coming back from a long break only to find that my stats are off and I have to spend months to get time gated gear to re-update my stats before enjoying the expansion >_>

Slynn the legendary Mesmer going ham!

Hello! I love to theory craft and after looking at this specialization I wanted to share some “food for thought” on Chronomancer shatter elite and Signet of Illusion resets.

Continuum Shift: resets everything when ends (from my understanding so far)

Signet of Illustions: Active: Recharge your shatter skills.

I posted this becuase I read people talking about the shatter long cooldown and I wanted to post this before the Mesmer Stream. From what I am seeing here you can.

Activate Continuum Shift
Activate Signet of Illusions
Then do whatever??

and potentially keep resetting itself while keeping it active, or being able to reset the shatter skill once.

If you can reset it once u can (3 Time warps)
Activate Continuum Shift
Time Warp
Continuum Shift Ends
Activate Signet of Illusions
Activate Continuum Shift (when clones are out)
Time Warp
Continuum Shift ends
Time Warp again……..lol

What do you guys think!!

If you guys didn’t know by now, JQ + TC is the new Toxic Alliance! The living story makes a return to WvW, Scarlet is BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I changed my ele to Elsa from Frozen <3 Would you like to build a snow man : ]

Man, I am surprised on the feedback. This armor is AMAZING!!!!!! Thank you Anet for the awesome job!

Hello Allie, I think the game mode and build for the class should be specified when doing these votes to make things easier

Greek.4396, our plan is to ask for game mode during the actual CDI when asking for what specific changes should be made.

So far, I’m seeing that it’s pretty unanimous that people think Elementalist and Ranger need the most help in all areas. If we get to the point where people feel there are classes that only need help in certain areas, we can change it up.

Thanks for the suggestion!

kk that’s good to know i’ll vote then

1. Ranger
2. Ele
3. Guardian

Hello Allie, I think the game mode and build for the class should be specified when doing these votes to make things easier

Anet should let you switch to w/e stats you want regardless when you use Ascended armor. It takes a lot of time and money to make……

I really really really really realllllllllllllllly want some kind of a elite kit. Give it some powerful skills with slightly longer cd’s then the skills on our normal kits and I will be super happy.

Maybe when we swap to the elite kit (like with med packs ) It will trigger rune effects, like procing lyssa for example : D

Pls make it happen Anet!!!!!

I haven’t experinced that many 4 v 5 ’s but I have been geting really long que times recently. : /

This reminds me of trolling around with thorns armor in Dark Souls and just rolling around at people all day hahaha

Rumor has it every Asura warrior that kills you on stream, you automatically assume its me : P

whispers Im solo Qnnnnn / studying for finals

I am still waiting for my permanent Dolyak finisher……..

Copying the spvp nerfs that they did to Necro (dummfire, ect) to WvW is a start.

Ah Yes this Picture. I was having a friendly duel with a Mesmer from AoN and I know you guys were at ruins watching it, I didn’t expect to get ganked like that AND have my picture taken : ]

Interesting first impressions on how mag “roams” and posts on the forums : P

I appreciate the attention tho! My Necro does look like a cutie on the target screen and I did get my revenge when we pushed your blob back to your spawn quite a few times , but of course if oPP took screenshots every time we did something this forum would be flooded with all the pictures! < 3 /cheer

Also if you can make Zealot’s Defense (sword number 3) Not root you in place, instead you can move while using this skill it would be a great change!

Eles get:

•Earth XI – Diamond Skin. This trait has been redesigned. Conditions cannot be applied to you when your health is above the threshold. 90%.

That can hurt us…

God forbid Eles have a chance to actually do good now >_>

The issue isn’t that Eles are getting some new anti-condition toys. The issue is that the toys they are getting negate conditions entirely instead of providing strong resistance.

its really easy for a Necro to 100- 0 an Ele that has its stun breakers on cool down with a fear chain, so I see this as a reasonable change.

I really just troll around with thief but I wouldn’t mind seeing that they give thieves 3 seconds to stealth back up again after bursting someone rather then 4 seconds.

I hope that’s not asking for too much : P

Tyler used to play Ele in Tpvp. We are in good hands ppl! : D

Before Dhuumfire was introduced I do remember a lot of players asking for some kind of sustainability with Necro and some better access to poison .

Which we did get! Deathshroud got completely fixed and I feel its in a good place now and the poison buff to scepter was amazing.

But please don’t nerf our bleed stacks and instead rather look at Dhummfire… As mentioned before a lot of players never asked for it and if our other sources of condition application is nerfed (like bleeds) I feel its going to pigeon hole condi necro builds and force them to go 30 into spite just for the burning to make up for the other nerfs.

Condi Damage with Necro was fine before and is great now with the scepter buff but I think Dhummfire should be removed or reworked. Dhummfire + Signet of Spite is the “I win button” and it took away any kind skill to actually condi burst someone.

JonPeters.5630:

The change to sword damage from 5% to 10%. I’ve seen a lot of talk that maybe it is not really needed. The fact was this was a lackluster trait and this is a lackluster change to it. I would love to do the right thing here and have a change that MH sword wants rather than just 5% more damage.

Thoughts?

Jon

Hey Jon! I would really like to see Flashing Blade (sword #2 skill) a target location teleport rather then requiring a target for it to work. It would really add to Guardians mobility in comparison to other class’s.

we’re the best around
nothing is gonna ever keep us down

Girl Power all the way!!!!!! I am all for this <3

They fixed runes of the speed and in all honesty I would just get that for wvw and spvp. You wont get that 10% condi duration but it gives you tons of vitality which is very important for a Necro plus the 30 second swiftness proc helps out a lot when you are kiting.

So coming back to this thread I decided to play a max sized Norn vs Asura warrior that I normally play, and enter in a couple of hot join matches. I felt like I played completely different, even if most of the differences are physiological.

What I hated about big characters was that

1) I couldn’t see sometimes what I was swinging at really messed with my movement.

2) The range of your attacks are sometimes misleading, I swear sometimes I do staggering blow and the tip of my hammer would go through the player (because of how big my character is)…….

If your playing a big character, I would just do it for the looks

Nickthemoonwolf.1485:

Did I not just say that IRON is SoRs 24/7 forum PvF coverage guild. they are just about the ONLY guild on the entire server that even says anything on the forums, and its always bragging, being upset at something BG said (yeah, you’re not the one trolling guys), or chest thumping the whole week long.

Oh I got one! IRON gets steam rolled as much as an IRONING Board. ooooooh Snap
does a little dance

I’m on fire babbyyyyyyy : ]

Personally for me I was really interested with the lore and mystery of what goes on beneath the waters : P And I really want to learn more about the dragons.

It feels like Scarlet is a giant episode filler for the plot which I don’t really like and wish she was done with so the story can move on : [

Absorb her and gain her power! RAWR

but yea lol, that would be an epic battle! / agree

But hammer is the weapon I have the most fun with D :

RTL cool down needs to be restored to its previous state..

Are the devs going to do that?

Absolutely not.

I think you all need to go on a flesh worm diet <3

Wurm is really helpful when your being trained. For that reason its always on my utility bar.

If your in a middle of the fight and you don’t have it out and there is people behind you. Cause of the slow cast time, instead of casting it in front of you, pan your camera and cast it behind the people that chase you for a full 1200 range teleport behind them. It works really well try it out!

From there if you have your camera pan’d you can just throw down the counter pressure with your marks. Wurm gives you really good kiting options : D

Please Devs, If I am going to grind for these armors for wvw, with the little time I have now to play this game, could you at least make the armor look good????

Asuras man! We are cute and cuddly and are hammers are really giant cushions that spread love and care to the opposing team.

If a Necro can use either a Greatsword or a Hammer I will overlook all the extreme cheesiness of this class and make it my main again <3

Man everyone is going nuts over the leagues, I bet at the end of season 1 the winning servers will just get a bunch of blues/greens and candy corn or better yet…delicious zhaitaffy mmmmmmm <3 possibly a mini siege razor

I don’t remember ever asking for better rewards and achievements in WvW.

It would take you maybe a few page flips through this forum to find a number of threads about rewards. Its been a topic in this forum for ages. Welcome to being in a community, where not voicing your opinion will hurt you because it skews perception.

mako.2431:

Do you people listen to yourselves? Basically you are saying it is our fault we cannot play because we wanted WvW to be better than it was. Talk about incomprehensibly stupid….

And for the record I wanted what WvW is to be improved, not add PvE crap to it.

I listen to myself just fine, I have to deal with these queues too. I just knew months in advance what people were asking for was a stupid idea. Too many people wanted to be “rewarded” for WvWing, and now when they get rewarded, they complain that other people, who also like to be rewarded, started playing.

Its not hard to realize what will happen when rewards are added to a thing.

Actually, what most W3’ers wanted was decent loot drops that were on par with PvE…or at least close to it. That’s it. We didn’t want tons of gold, we didn’t want precursors to fall from the sky, and we certainly didn’t want any achievements creeping into W3. That’s about the last thing any dedicated W3 player wanted.

Agreed, if its either with balancing or with wvw loot I dont know why things have to get over complicated to the point where it does more bad then good. The ques/lag is killllliiingggg meeeeeeeeee! I’m just a cute little Asura make it stop T_T

Mance.5640:

Hello small mans and roamer types of T1.

On Thursdays [SG] hosts our 5man nights. If you see [SG] on a bl Thurs, come and have fun old school roamer style, and we will take it to the streets! All 5mans will be in seperate coms running around. We’ve been doing this for about a month now on Thurs. JQ if you’re a 5manner feel free to yell at us on Thurs and grab a group, then hop in your own TS channel.

We are an old school “serious bizness” wvw guild, so if you see this PARTICULAR 5-whoaman pvp group, please terminate with extreme prejudice:

http://youtu.be/PiMLGD0oGVg

I would love to have a decent fight except every time there is orange swords, wvw servers blow up making wvw unplayable T_T. I tried roaming last night and it was terribad, making condis tick 2-3 times extra + with all the choppiness and I couldn’t hit anyone with my skills : [

please Arenanet make WVW servers stable and give us the points on stomping with the orbs back so I don’t feel useless capping stuff T_T.

whyme.3281:

If they remove dhuumfire we are where we started, well no necros will be even worth, because they still have nerved fear/terror. The buff was needed for necros, because every other class did more Conditiondamage before the patch and I think warrior is still stronger when you want to apply conditions. They only lack of epedemic to spread them.

I think the main problem is, that many people don’t know what a condition remove is.

They buffed their deathshroud, spectral skills and gave torment, Necros will never be worse then their previous state. They never needed burning, their condi was always good.

Super Wilson.7408:

I want to jump in now and say Greek is a good warrior. He is also quite a troll in the battle field. He knows he is. He lives to kitten people off. That’s why I dedicated a section to him to troll him back a bit. That being said he is a good warrior and the Svanir runes thing that he does is nothing short of brilliant. And yes one of the times he bolts if you watch my party you can see the thief is downed. Also I updated my original to post and will be adding any new videos to that post as I make them. Thanks for watching guys.

Unfortunately I joined the Melandru/Lemongrass train last night : [ Too many Necros to fight in small roaming groups now, maybe after the patch i’ll go back to Svanir T_T, works good in spvp, still troll hard with rune of svanir + shield block + endure pain with all the passive healing.

and yea I /cheer on ppl all the time, cause its hard sometimes finding small fights in wvw so when I /cheer on ppl a lot of the times they come after me so I get more fights : P If you ask anyone from my guild, Im actually one of the nicest ppl that play lol.

Caino.7130:

:Repost from your deleted thread:
Don’t get my wrong, really like your play style and that but at the start you mock a warrior for running away once the fight was not going well for him…but then in the very next scene you run away also until the fight is in your favour again seems a bit strange.
Anyway good fighting

Go watch it again and you will see the difference. Here is a clue…, the oPP warrior runs off when his mates are still up and the fights are all to play for. His friends all die. He does this three times in that video that I count. Whereas Wilson beats a tactical retreat taking a circular route to keep the enemy close when outnumbered (he was the last one of his team left alive) while he waits for his friends to run back and then they clean house again.

Wilson, nice build and nice skills. Good videos. Enjoyed watching them.

You ever stop and to think maybeeeeeeee my team told me to keep going in mumble, cause they were getting wiped from an outnumbered fight? I did not have War banner at the time and resing someone with 5 people ready to cleave you is impossible. If you looked closely I had my camera pan’d behind me the entire time i backed off to see if I can find an opportunity to jump in again or punish over extenders, which in that case did happen when the thief in his party followed me halfway down the the map only to get instant killed from 100% with one hammer combo >_>.

but your from J_QQ so I understand your response, and I like to thank you in advance for the loot bags you have to given to us ^^

Hello everyone My name is Wilson… I play a warrior in the small man squads of Jade Quarry’s Strike Force. I have been making videos for only about a month now. With the great fights OPP has been providing this week I really wanted to post this video here for all to enjoy. I only have a free version of Bandicam, so I miss a ton of stuff but here are some highlights anyway.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Llojly5kUqQ

Your very welcome for the fights. I am very sorry you guys could not kill me, the “fat” asuran warrior because of all the tea baggin I do to you guys. I mean I would be annoyed too if I see this asura /cheer on us while we cant kill him with more numbers.

Can’t really blame me for running when I am surrounded by red. Funny cause it shows you running from us in the next part. I’ll guess in our next video i’ll just put down “You don’t have to kill the fat Norn with candy, he will just run” : D

5:23 Rune of Svanir 1 :|| SF 0 : ]

and don’t worry since we have so much fun fighting you guys too! We are making quite the video library as well : D

katniss.6735:

I still feel the ride the lightning nerf wasn’t at all necessary.

^ this, 40 sec cd on ride the lightning really was the buzz kill for me considering I can just go on my Warrior with a GS and run around the whole map.

Even my Engi has better mobility now >_>

Maybe i’ll make a thread, but redoing conjure weapons so they dont have cooldowns, but instead work like Engi kits so you can switch like crazy and do insane combos. Would make this class fun again, or give me back my old D/D ele : P

with the current state of necros, there is nothing to ask for >__>

maybe improvements to blood magic and some changes to power builds so there is less condi builds running around but other then that necros are fine.

you can use signet of spite that takes all the skill of a condi build and combines it into one easy skill that does everything!!!!

Heck it will even wash your car, do the dishes, and fold your clothes too!
