GvG in the new Jumping Puzzle Map

in WvW

Posted by: Harbinger.8637

Harbinger.8637

That’s also what was the impetus for removing the crafting stations. The more time people spend in the maps not playing WvW, the longer the queues are.

I take it this means you will be removing Jumping Puzzles from WvW aswell… you know, people jumping around not doing WvW… Just to “earn” badges without actually having to fight or contribute. Taking up slots.

Now that would have a far greater impact of removing deadweigth players from WvW than removing crafting stations, while being a far smaller bother to your actual WvW community.

I wonder if we can even do that… :P The EB JP is coming out for the May 14th release.

Great. WvW just got more boring.

It’s getting its own map/zone so it doesn’t interfere with EB’s queues. I would assume (hopefully not incorrectly) that you will still be able to PvP there.

Yes, you can. So pretty much this is for the better.

Quick question Colin – are we still able to kill people doing the puzzle? Or is this gonna be a pve area?

Kill away! It’s still very much a WvW map, just its own map now. It’s all growsed up.

That’s online gaming for you. Some people can’t except the fact that they’re are people better then them out there, and think they’re the best thing since sliced bread.

They’ll blame anyone else and everything else. Most of the time it’s a mistake by them that cause them to lose a fight or match, yet they won’t admit it.

Just ignore them.

I do like it a lot. Probably keep it for awhile. I did change out Life for Bloodlust though. Pretty much my damage mitigation is high enough. That I don’t really need to stack healing as much. Better off just going for more power.

Also been using Sword/Torch more then the hammer. Helps a lot with burst, also helps with survivability. Teleport and blocking range attacks.

Those two do give you great upkeep. There is always a chance for your fury to be stolen, corrupted, or removed. So I’m just playing it safe.

Also this allows me to change out FGJ if need be.

Does seem interesting. Probably play around with it later today. Going to switch out Dogged Marched for Leg Specialist, then shield instead of Mace. Maybe axe for more dmg and fury upkeep.

I really wouldn’t bother with Valkyrie ammy. Healing power doesn’t do that much for warriors unless you are a shout healing or banner build.

Best Healing Skill?

in Guardian

Posted by: Harbinger.8637

Harbinger.8637

Well they’re all decent, maybe not Healing Breeze don’t play around with that too much. The cone of the heal was all wonky, but I think they fixed that in the last couple of patches.

Signet of is great when traited only 32 second cd, so it almost matches Shelter. Only thing I don’t like is you’re more vulnerable to have it being interrupted.

Shelter is great for AH builds since you get might when you block.

If you trait Signets, then Resolve is beastly. 32 second cd, passive removes two conditions, and also remove a condition on active.

I personally run Shelter most of the time because I use an AH build, and have other condition removers. So yeah, they’re all good. Just depends on your playstyle and build. I’d say if you run an AH build then Shelter, if not your better of going Resolve.

Well. I thought there would be a soft cap on armor, but it doesn’t seem that way. I pushed it some more using food for +100 tough and +70 prec. I do notice a difference in reduction. 1v1 your hp rarely drops, and you can pull off some crazy stuff in zerg fights.

Decrease is dmg is notable. That being said you still hit fairly hard. You only need 6 stacks of might to get 3k attack which is simple thanks to 45% crit chance(buff)/EM, plus sigil of battle, and activating Justice.

@Holy

I’d just keep the soldier ammy.

You’re better off dropping Signet of Wrath. If my math is correct it’s only going to add ~40 more dmg to your burns. That is barely noticeable, but the active is nice so you can keep it for that if you want.

Since this is a burning build it seems like Flame Legion would be a good choice for runes.

What I’m getting at here is. Why would you purposely draw conditions to yourself. (Save Yourselves) When you only have two passive conditions removers. One, if Resolve is on CD.

Doesn’t make much sense now does it?

I’m not trying to tell people how to play either. I’m just pointing out a flaw I see. Other then that I don’t see anything wrong, just a standard AH build.

Biggest problem I have with it. It despawns after 60 seconds. It should stay until defeated.

Sanctuary is a joke too. It should be something like once you get your stacks it won’t trigger until you hit less then 10% hp or something similar.

I’m guessing you’re talking about the Lemongrass/Melandru combo. Lemongrass is stupidly expensive right now 12 silver, and I don’t like being forced to run a certain rune set.

You also have to remember condition builds are going to use foods like Rare Veggie Pizza, and runes to increase their durations and potency. So for the most part its just better to remove them.

You only have one condition remover maybe two can’t tell if you’re using purity. Both are passive. Also using Save Yourselves so you’re going to draw conditions, and have only have one or two condition removers for WvW.

I like nitpicking, it’s how you make the build better. Does need some more tweaking, but compared to when I first made this build. This is a huge improvement.

Main reason I like Divinity; I can change my build at anytime, and not worry about needing new gear. I still want to get full Divinity one day.

Spicy Chocolate Cookie is great imo. One, it’s cheap compared to a lot of other foods, and it also gives you +70 prec which you need with this build.

I’ll continue tweaking and switching things out. Like me using the Bane Signet is probably the best Signet for me.

Thanks for the input.

Seems like you are taking the more tanky approach went I look at it. (Nothing wrong with that)

x6 Soldiers and Pure of Voice is a bit overkill imo. You could take 10 out of Honor, and put it somewhere else to be more useful.

Your crit chance also seems to be low too. Don’t see that much prec, probably better off switching out some pieces for Knight or Zerker.

That’s what I’d do. It’s your build, and you should do what you think is best.

Here’s something I threw together real fast for you. Tried to keep most of your gear the same.

Ya, Healing Power goes a long ways if you can get it high enough and if your build is right. I could get my 3k on attack/armor back, but I’d have to give up a lot of crit dmg/crit chance in the process.

Overall very happy with the build. Works great in any situation. Probably change out more of my trinkets for Divinity stats later down the road.
