PvF
All the SBI thieves I’ve seen have been really bad, and just a free loot bag. Oh but I do /bow after, I’m not a complete tool.
Remember people, when fighting a warrior your eyes are on him at all times, because he is not stealthing or teleporting or cloning. This is a huge advantage when fighting against one.
Losing sight of a player plays a HUGE role in pvp play, if you don’t understand this, it’s time you took it into consideration.
Always having your eyes on your target allows you to read the combat, following his movements to keep hitting him, or to kite away in the perfect direction, staying out of melee range, and knowing when to dodge his attacks (which warriors ones are very noticeably telegraphed). It makes fighting warriors so simple, BECAUSE YOU CAN ALWAYS SEE THEM TO COUNTER THEIR MOVEMENTS.
Here’s some fun for you next time you log in, try and melee thieves and mesmers that blink and stealth and dodge and evasion all over the place, and then tell me warriors are not balanced.
I think my brain has turned to mush from all this illogical ranting.
I came here hoping to read some great news from the red banner post….
Man was I disappointed.
What I hope for:
- Weapon dyes
- Dead scarlet
- Less grind
- Commander tag can be customized to be your guild symbol
- ^ or Customized commander tag colours
- The story focusing on the established lore, and not new made up garbage
- Non Trebuchet siege to be small red dots on the map. This would help your server to refresh siege instead of losing it for no reason, and to help new players to use siege when being attacked.
- ’Bull’s charge’ being fixed to not fly past the target
- ‘Rush’ being fixed to actually hit your target instead of the 98% fail rate it now possesses.
What I expect to see:
- The complete opposite, and more over priced gem store peddling.
- More frustrating time gated content
- More scarlet (sigh)
Are you from TC???
3) A skill or skill effects that gives damage
based on amount of boons on opponent.
(yeah I know warriors got the 1% damage increase
for each boon on yourself, it’s not the same thing.)
“Empowered” – self
“Destruction of the Empowered” – enemy
Already exists. And the other 2 are meh, I wouldn’t trait for them.
Does great fortitude take power from food/oil into consideration?
I assume great fortitude only takes base stats into its calculation and not any traits/buffs. Because imagine having 25 stacks of might, that would increase your health by a TONNE, on top of food/armoured attack etc, it would be huge for a 10 point trait.
I’m thinking its working as intended (base stats only), unless anet confirms it is a bug.
Every warhorn clips through the knee when in combat stance, how did they mess that one up? shrug poor design, will never be fixed.
In Gw1 you never stowed your weapons, hence why this skin never clipped.
I prefer jumping on my norn, and hate jumping on my asura. God I hate asura, the rat looks like it can’t make a jump then suddenly teleports on top, it looks ridiculous.
It’s not a cheat, or an exploit.
It’s a shortcut, it’s been there since sanctum sprint was released, and there is nothing wrong with it.
There is even a jump upgrade placed at the shortcut, it is intended. It doesn’t allow you to skip the finish line, you still have to run or number 2 to the finish line.
Sour grapes!
The mini games take place in maps built around the rules of sPvP and tPvP.
If you played pvp, you would notice in the mini game areas you are wearing your pvp gear.
The AFK timer in Pvp used to be much longer, which promoted leeching, so the timer was shortened.
The main issue you’re seeking to change, is to make mini games into pve zones or something different, with its own rules, instead of being pvp based zones.
Snowball fight, keg toss, southsun survival, etc still need to be in pvp areas, with the quick kick timer. Bell choir, sanctum sprint etc do not.

And for the armour/Weapon to have its correct name.
Example, my thief has apothecary armour, the chest piece is called “berserkers duelist top” instead of apothecary. The bug also happens with sigil names on weapons.
Or just make it require 4 votes (in a 5 man party).
The party feature has been around in countless games, for a tonne of years, yet somehow in GW2 they screwed it up.
You just need to remind yourself, that you’ll never reach the carrot (in stat/level progression games).
Play games for their content, have fun, meet new people. Numbers from gear and levels should not be the reason you play a game, because EVERY mmo or rpg ever made has numbers on gear or levels, it’s not a special or unique concept, and it adds nothing to the game by increasing it over time. The sooner you free yourself from the max number grind, and enjoy games for the content it offers or the competitive game modes or the fun you have with friends, the more enjoyment you will get from games. If you don’t find the game fun any more, try another game.
Ascended gear was already a plague on this game, killing off alt characters, and destroying build diversity.

I already had a feeling that ore/log/leather/cloth salvaged at the same rates and yields.
But, those numbers prove that 300 per day is ridiculous, because you get each of those T5 mats at the same ratio as each other, whilst leather and cloth are only from salvaging (clothes are made out of thin air in GW2).
Updated the OP.
Bump for justice.
The skills are still broken. Still not viable for combat. Still hilariously funny to watch fail.
So many noobs have taken over this thread with their illogical ranting it is absolutely hilarious.
How can you sit here and just ignore the FACT that other classes have perma vigor and shadowsteps, evasions, skills that throw you backwards, and stealth, ALL OF WHICH are better for in combat use, WHILST MAINTAINING full damage/cc output, all of which THIS PARTICULAR WARRIOR BUILD HAS NONE OF.
If you CANNOT SEE how much better mobility skills are (MOBILITY, not land speed) for fights, then you have no reason to be here, you are wasting your own time being here, you look a fool.
Sword/warhorn/GS only kills terrible players. All of the movement skills can be interrupted, play better.
I don’t make a thread and cry about how many times a mesmer can blink and dodge and go stealth in a fight. I don’t do the same for thieves spamming stealth like cowards. I also don’t come here to point out that necromancer and engi condition damage is utterly broken at the moment, whilst still maintaining unkillable status.
I deal with it. Play better.
(edited by Have No Faith In Me.1840)
The people posting in this thread make my head sore.
If you’re not even going to try to understand the basics about the game, or even try to understand that mobility and land speed are entirely different things, or try to understand that land speed doesn’t help you win a fight where as mobility does, then you need to stop posting, because you all look like fools.
And also: singling out one aspect of one build (that sacrifices so much) whilst completely ignoring the joke mechanics other classes have is moronic.
Read my post on page 1 or don’t even bother. Logic > this thread.
Either of you are very good at necro then.
Necro has 3 lives, and easily causes a train wreck of damage through conditions, and even power build.
Give them an escape/movement skill, and they’re even more op than they already are.
I dont know what you are complaining about, I’ve kept all my mats and currently have well over 25 stacks of silk scraps.
Irrelevant. In 20 days your stacks will be 0, then you will realise that 300 per day is ridiculous.
@ Illconceived Was Na.9781, the point here is that it is 300 per day, while the others are 100 ore and 150 log/leather per day. 300 is ridiculously high for a salvage only aquisition, and not even remotely achievable in one day without the TP.
I’m going to call it now, if it stays at 300 per day, silk scrap will be close to 1g per piece within a month. And then it will definitely be impossible to do in ONE DAY.
Edit: and lets not forget that this shafts WvW players even harder than the previous daily materials. WvW players STILL have no real means of obtaining ascended equipment without PvE game play (20:1 loot ratio, PvE : WvW)

L2P issue. Thank you.
Fused gauntlets
Fact: Thieves have the best mobility
Fact: Warriors have the best land speed (Point A to Point B )
You cannot argue against those facts, because you are simply wrong.
You also need to understand that mobility and land speed are not the same thing.
Mobility:
- Shadowstep
- Dodge roll
- Stealth
- Flanking Strike (thief S/D)
These are things that cause quick and erratic movement whenever you want, wherever you want. They also hamper enemy melee severely, also causes the player to lose focus on you. Thieves do this the best.
Land speed:
- Swiftness (Or speed signet/trait where applicable)
- Leaps
- Charges
- (Insert an obvious one I probably forgot)
These are for covering distance only, either to get to a target, or run from a target. They always go in a straight line, and take time to get from Point A to Point B, which is very obviously telegraphed (Susceptible to daze/stun). Warriors do this the best.
You need to remember that mobility and land speed are completely different things.
Also, thieves complaining about another class resetting a fight? You honestly cannot be serious, because that’s just stupid.
A well timed Headshot or two (or scorpion wire), when these types of warriors use Savage Leap or Rush, will be their death, considering most warriors with this weapon set up will attempt to disengage at low health, it is easily predictable, so get your interrupts ready.
Sword/Warhorn + GS also sacrifices a lot of damage.:
- Rush misses its target 98.1337% of the time. (This skill is broken, the only use it serves is to run from fights and across the map)
- Sword Burst, does terrible damage outside of condition builds.
- GS Burst, no one uses this, EVER. It is garbage. (So the warriors class mechanic is essentially being wasted with this weapon set up)
- Savage Leap rarely hits, it might bring you near the target, dealing damage/cripple is purely luck.
- No real CC. (Only Immobilize from sword burst, and Leg Specialist (If the trait is picked))
Remember.. leaps and charges are always well telegraphed. Shadowsteps are never telegraphed. Players will always lose direct focus when fighting a thief, but never against a warrior, because warriors cannot stealth themselves, or instantly teleport, you can ALWAYS keep your eyes on them.

^ I do like the sound of that.
Lump of Mithrillium – 50 Mithril Ingots, which is 100 Mithril Ore a day, that’s fair enough, considering you can easily salvage for it, as well as easily mine it.
Glob of Elder Spirit Residue – 50 Elder Wood Planks, which is 150 Elder Wood per day, sure, fair enough, we can salvage and chop it quite easily.
Spool of Thick Elonian Cord – 50 Cured Thick Leather Square, that’s 150 Thick Leather Sections per day. Hmm, we can only salvage for it, still, I suppose 150 isn’t all that bad, but it is pushing it.
Spool of Silk Weaving Thread – 100 Bolts of Silk, uh, what? 300 silk scrap per day? And the only way we can get it is by salvaging? And we need 300 per day? What?
I understand that you wanted to drain the massive supply of silk on the market, the damage has been done, you’ve succeeded, the price has increased by over 1200%, now it is time to reduce the daily material to 150 per day to bring it in line with the others, because 300 per day is utterly ridiculous and REQUIRES the use of the trading post, you cant harvest it, no player will get 300 per day on their own unless they’re playing 8 hours or more a day.
Edit: price has now increased by over 2200%. 5g for 300 silk scrap

simple thing, make it so that when you finish someone you can’t be in stealth, i do find it a horrible system if you can kill someone while in stealth this way.
This comment is cringe worthy.
You think its a horrible system to kill the person that you beat? LOL!
You don’t think the down state in general is a joke? What?
Facepalm
On topic. You’re downed? You lost the fight, there is nothing wrong with blind stomping, stealth stomping, tele stomping, stability stomping, mist form stomping, and Elixir S stomping.
Get around it. This is the pinnacle of online gaming.
Said this before and we’ll say it again, get better servers.
Hey TC, maybe you’d like to come out of your towers and fight 1v1 and 2v2 instead of camping behind walls on cannons, and waiting for 10 more players to come back you up.
Sounds almost like you’re calling out sentries for doing their jobs. Seriously.
Sounds like a thrilling life decision, open a game, not play it (coward), eat burgers, repeat.
Yeah those gimmick mechanics are in the game to help bad players feel good., it’s what this generation of games love to do.
Hey TC, maybe you’d like to come out of your towers and fight 1v1 and 2v2 instead of camping behind walls on cannons, and waiting for 10 more players to come back you up.
Having played in T1, namely Blackgate, for nearly half a year before moving back to T2, your above comment and malicious falsehood simply indicates the clueless nature of your falsehood. Blackgate, as with other T1 servers, use TS very, very effectively, hence the desire to get ALL into TS. Furthermore, they utilize methods of Commander comms that allow for greater communications and capabilities with other server commanders.
At any rate, your talking out your clueless behind, nothing more, nothing less.
Thank you for providing me a perfect example.
I’d rather be kicked in the groin 9001 times than verse a T1 server more than 60% of the time (Like how leagues were).
Our SoS v TC v FA match up is great.
If you don’t like your skill lagged 1+ hour queue’d 100 man blob match ups, play on a real server.
Servers with a good community like SoS, and I would assume all the lower servers, don’t have ANY of the things people have complained about in this thread.
We have a laugh, play music which you can just mute if you’re not interested, and bag farm our enemies.
If your “casuals” don’t want to use teamspeak, nominate someone to turn on their tag to lead them around and cap objectives, while your members on teamspeak follow a tagged down commander, you don’t need to be one blob.
Of course the T1 servers (and their TS) are filled with whiny babies that no one wants to be around, those kinds of people always fair weather to places/servers (no matter what game) where they can rely on the other players to win for them.
I still run Healing Signet, even in zergs, the new skill is funny, but not great. You should always be standing to the side of red circles and melee trains, not standing in them.
Not sure what you’re complaining about.
Sustained healing is ALWAYS better than an “all or nothing” heal.
3. Don’t announce how the servers will be split up before the start of the season.
- Announcing how the servers would be split resulted in player movement to/from servers.
- ArenaNet could have simply said, “There would be WvW Season One and servers will be split into leagues where servers are matched with competitive servers.”
Yeah I wish we didn’t know what the split was going to be. I know we all would of loved being in a 2 league NA, 1-12 and 13-24.
/sarcasm.
It’s so ironic how it’s always the stackers from stackgate crying.
Get good.

CERN and INVC killing spectators at the KH ZzZz gvg. Poor form.
You are misinformed. Reducing the map cap by that much would negatively impact NA servers as low down as T4. It would obliterate EU servers completely.
Wait, did you just imply that NA Tiers 2/3/4 can queue all 4 maps at once? I sure hope you didn’t, because they certain cannot. Reducing cap will not impact anything but T1/Blackgate.
Remember, there are 4 maps with player slots that need filling, not home BL + EBg.

This is not the first time I have made a thread on this. This has been brought up countless times on the forums and in game, to no response. Does this company really not care about legitimate game breaking bugs involving a core part of the game?
It has been over a year and still these skills are broken in terms of combat viability.
Sure, GS rush and Bull’s Charge are great for disengaging a fight, other classes complain warriors are too good at disengaging a fight with those skills.
Perhaps if you fixed these skills so they could actually ATTACK THE ENEMY, they might actually be used during combat, resulting in them being on recharge, and not saved for escaping.
But that’s beside the point.
Try using Rush on a stationary ambient critter from medium range or a bit further, it is hilarious to see your character fail to hit it. Utterly hilarious.
These skills have been broken for over a year, this is what REGULARLY happens (95% of the time), unless you use them at point blank melee range:
GS Rush
1) You select a target
2) You use Rush
3 a) You run past the target (HOW?!), and then turn/swing and hit nothing
3 b) You run next to the target, and then swing and hit nothing
Bull’s Charge
1) You select a target
2) You use Bull’s Charge
3) As you come near the target, it gets damaged and knocked down, then your character proceeds to fly 200-600 range past it, which moves you outside of melee range, making the skill entirely useless, yet absolutely hilarious to facepalm to
The only time these abilities can be used, is at melee range, and if the stars and planets align.
Not sure about EU, but in NA all ANet has to do is reduce the map cap to 40 or 50, and T1 will crumble under the weight of their server stacking, and the players will spread out.
The only people opposed to the reduced map cap, are of course, the T1 band wagon stackers.
Will they do it? Probably not, ANet devs play on the T1 stacked servers.
Then again once they make the “overflow map” maybe they will reduce the EB and Borderland map caps….. who am I kidding that will never happen.
Seems like a fair downside to those overpowered runes
+1
Nerf is coming for this rune..
People running it just keep ignoring its OP.. lol yeah 25 stacks of confusion in 2-3 sec every time.. thats balanced… lolI’m sorry, but how does this rune set enable 25 stacks of confusion on a target in 2-3 sec?
It is quite easy when you verse noobs that mash 1.

Necros are one of the strongest classes in the game.
Complainers are a L2P issue.
I can tell you right now that if 3 guilds from JQ were organized on one map, they would not be as part of the same group unless it was something like a lord room battle in a keep.
They have been, all week, just saying. Will screenshot tomorrow at same time as today.
BG and JQ:
Why do your guilds always blob around in 80 man tri-guild+pugs blobs?

Extreme lag, seeking help from any but Anet

Posted by: Have No Faith In Me.1840
^ Been having these issues for 5 months, it gets worse every day, sometimes I can look the other way, but today is just broken the game is unplayable. All of it is on ANet/United States end, because I and others are lucky enough to pass through the trash ISPs over there.
No response by ANet, it is a little insulting, they don’t seem to be taking any steps to protect their product either.
Not even a “we’re sorry for the insane lag that is on our end.”
- Players teleporting
- Players rubberbanding
- Skills lagging
- Movement Skills rubberbanding (leaps etc gain no ground, teleport backwards, etc etc WTF)
- Delayed dodges
And that is on a good day…..
#ANETPLZ
3-4 days? I’ve been dealing with lag for like 5 months, it is getting worse by the day, all of it is from ANet and the United States, and not on my end.
And with this.
ANET are you going to give us an official response on what you plan on doing to fix the lag? (NOT SKILL LAG) I know most of it isn’t your fault, but Verison and Level3 or something, but, what are you going to do to fix this? Because it is crippling your game and company.
An official response after 5 months on this issue would be lovely, thank you.
JQ in a nut shell:
- Always get wiped in an even fight
- Feel sad
- Proceed to queue map 4:1 numbers
- Feel good
- Repeat
Thanks for the easy bags though.
