How much extra time Quickness nerf COF 1?

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: JJBigs.8456

JJBigs.8456

I’m still able to run it in 6 minutes or under with a great group.

6 min run = 26 silver
One hour -> 60 min = 260 silver = 2 gold 60 silver

How can that be called farming? You can get around 6 gold in one hour farming materials in Cursed Shore

Just like your materials drop in Cursed Shore are RNG, so is COF drops i.e. Lodestones, Rares, etc.. It works out in the end

Fractals Dungeon Kick

I agree with team partially. There should be no reason what so ever a zerker ele/thief/necro should be carrying the hammer. The heavy class/tanks should be the ones using the hammer and smashing deals, while the squishers DPS the chanters.

If you didnt have any heavys/tankys and they made you do it, well shoulda known bad group composition = problems.

You cant solo hammer as you get corruption stacks so they are really idiots if they expected you to solo the entire encounter. Id say its usually a group of 2-3 hammer who will side 2 side hammer with the rest as support/dps for yaal.

This isnt a reason to kick no, but remember Cliffside tends to bring out much rage in people, especialy if the both sides of the seals are popped.

Switching away from Signet warrior to?

Full Berserker with Greatsword. I personally always run signet of rage.

Your utilites range from the PvE instance:
A general pug run with 0 other warriors – Run Shake It Off, FGJ, optional
COF P1 Farm – OMM, FGJ, Banner

How much extra time Quickness nerf COF 1?

JJBigs.8456

Minor necro, but it’s a bit more compacted than that in PvE. While you’re also doing double damage, you’re getting more procs for vulnerability on crit, and more vulnerability from things like grenade engineers, effectively capping it out for your double damage duration and hitting full vulnerability stacks, whereas outside of quickness you might be hitting anywhere from 12-18 stacks at most (at least not without 2 grenade engineers to make this trivial).

Nade Engi OP. Nerf pls.

Why not just bring a warrior with on my mark?

Condition vs Crit

well clearly he needs to state PvE or PvP as there is a huge difference. However, I stand to stay Crit damage is clearly superior in PvE than condition damage.

Source/Proof: COF P1 Farm = Not condition damage DPS.

All sigils are on a global sigil cooldown. You just have something else proccing first and eating up that cooldown, so your Energy sigil never triggers.

Ruby Orbs are not situational while other runes are. So unless you want to be all nerdy carrying a calculator to each fight, number crunching active boons, forcing yourself to play different in order to obtain a rune perk, which no one actually does, go Ruby Orb.

*Are* Warriors OP?

in Warrior

Posted by: JJBigs.8456

JJBigs.8456

In this game damage is all that matters, that’s what warriors do…lots & lots of damage (pve)

You are so incredibly wrong I picked up my keyboard and slapped it over my face, because using my hand wouldn’t have been enough… Warriors are powerful yes, but they are straightforward, they only have big numbers, there are no mechanics.

I have 3 80s, all geared in exotics, and played every class to at least 40, Warrior is so boring. Fights are easy, but really other than good numbers what do you bring to a group? You don’t have the boons and healing of an Ele, shielding of a Guardian, or the ability to rez from the shadows like a Thief. Every class brings something awesome to a group, warrior does not.

PS: My engineer main kills warriors in tPvP without falling below 90% health unless they are bunker, in which has I will sometimes hit 80%. All warrior PvP builds are simple, thus easy to counter.

I do have the boons of an ele. Ever hear of FGJ? Shielding of a guardian? I assume you mean reflect wall because shield is newb build for a guardian. Our job is DPS not to save fail kids who dont bring reflects themselves or cant kite to save them. Rez from shadows? Y SO SNEAKY. /Warbanner. Now i gave the party fury/might/swift/stability and ressed someone at the same time.

No class brings something awsomer than damage from warrior. You dont need it.

As the poster in solo lupi necro said, NECRO BRINGS CHILL, WEAK, BLEED etc… Well why did the zerk warrior do it without those things, and in a fraction of the time. Oh wait, maybe they arent as good as you think.;

Sorry, your just wrong.

*Are* Warriors OP?

JJBigs.8456

. My dps might be slightly behind but I pull out more for a group than a warrior does and the speed difference isn’t much. especially on big pulls like COF p3 where you have to light the torches…. watching a zerker warrior trying to survive all the oozes or tar is a bit funny. I run in pull them all too me and burst the whole group down be for the warrior can kill 3 lol, if he doesn’t get downed in the process from burning conditions first.

SO no Warriors are not the the be all end all pve god in this game.

The only reason a zerker would die, is because the rest of the team lacks DPS. I.e. non other zerkers. If he had other zerks with him, instead of you, they would steamroll the “ooze/tar” before you even noticed that the enemys did DPS. Unfortunatly, zerkers are grouped in general population with low DPS like Cleric Rangers and they cant carry the entire team now. Not to say guards are bad, I like my guard alot and they can actually put up pretty high numbers imo, but wars are better :c

Support Accessories: Cleric vs Soldier

in Guardian

Posted by: JJBigs.8456

JJBigs.8456

Cleric for sure if your concern is support and not damage. Soldier is less tanky, its not max toughness. Imo, what makes a tank is the +Toughness stat on a guardian, the heals are a afterthought. Make sure to run (AH) Trait w/ a staff for megaheals.

Makes absolutely no sense.

This is implying that Sword is viable for PvP while GS is not 0_0

Just what ive “Heard” around the forums. I dont see many people suggesting GS in PvP, but i see more suggesting 1h. If not, nvm

Zerker Guardian

in Guardian

Posted by: JJBigs.8456

JJBigs.8456

TLDR:
Just tried a zerker Warrior, and am loving the damage output, and am finding my skill to dodge and stay alive to be worth it, as I hardly go down and I dish out insane damage. I love my Guardian and would like to carry that over to my Guardian. I can’t just “play both” because I’m striving for a legendary that I’d like to give to my Guardian so I can continue using it as my “main.” Any power based or zerkers build you have that you could recommend? Or is this just not a good idea?

No warning about ascended rings

JJBigs.8456

Ack! Thats really tough, sorry to hear about the problem. However, since the second ring should of been “unequippable”, you can transfer to another character before it becomes soulbound.

This doesnt solve your issue, as I dont think there is a solution, just trying to make the best of a bad situation.

Thanks for the sudden update.

well , i was wearing PVT on my warrior, with guards in group so surely I wasnt the highest, and it went after me. Now lets assume, the guards werent PTV, and in zerker or somit… THEN i go OOC, while team is fighting lupi, swap my PTV gear for zerker. and lupi stayed on me!!

Post your old dungeon farms that got nerfed:

Old CM Story (10 Mins) – DO-Able easily from level 60+. Could level you/Silver Farm. Got my first Abyss as a gift for someone before this was nerfed.

SE Path 1 – I miss the days of waiting 10 minutes solo so they Inquest patrols in the begginning would simply stop spawning, leaving a clear path for the team once I formed.

Arah P3 Crusher/Hunter Farm – Pre Rock Removal. When both would drop 10s + Bags.

Cursed Shore – When Pent/Shel’s was up 24/7. When Plinx respawned instantly. When there was no Vets Or Champs to annoy the farming.

CoF p1 – Before they ruined the game by changing this (Future but IT BETTER NOT HAPPEN)

not true and ive made way more money in other areas of the game. pve related. non-tp. Its all about how often you farm, i use alts to my advantage so I am not DR’d, and area’s/dungeons you pick to farm.

CoF is possibly the best farm in game if you pug, but when you have core teams of 4 wars/1mes/1guard interchangably, the world is at your hands. The reason CoF wins is because zerker warriors flock here. If zerker warriors made a decision to flock to Dungeon “X” it would become the new moneymaker hands down.

How many times have you ran SE p3 with all zerker warriors? How many times have you ran coe p1 or p3 with all zerker warriors (1shot destroyer)? etc…. Its just the type of people looking to speedclear, have the best class in the game, etc goto COF. Its great, but Its not the only way of making money by far, and I didnt use it. Ill run it maybe 1-4 times a day out of 7 level 80s

My advice screw class set up.
Just get people who know what they’re doing.

On and make sure you have an Ele for Paths 1 and 3

Okay, let’s screw the class setup but make sure we have an ele.

I lol’d too since a warrior group easily has no problems taking out burrows minus ele. Im sure its “possible” without eles/wars too, but I dont see the point of working harder than you have too if his aim is obtaining tokens for legendary.

lupi is harder than simian agreed. ive joined about 3 teams that were @ simin, maybe im lucky, but ive had a 100 percent sucess rate. Maybe I just know my strengths (Full ascended zerker warrior) but even though ive never “1shot” simian, while I have “1shot” Lupi, Id still go with Lupi requires way more: 1. Player thinking 2. Movement 3. Reaction time and punishes you in the form of death rather than just failing.

Getting kicked from Jade Maw Fractal

Posted by: JJBigs.8456

JJBigs.8456

What should i have had reported them for its not illegal for kicking people?

it’s illegal to kick a person at the last boss chest.

We should have a chat about the definition of “illegal.” It doesn’t mean what you think it does.

well it is a bannable offense, so in the game universe “illegal”. Nobody will arrest you over it though.

It’s not a bannable offense unless you are doing it to grief someone and that can be proven. Even then ANET isn’t too clear on what actions will be taken.

You dont need the intent to grief. Clearly even if there was no chat going on, no overt expressions to grief, and I play fotm 10, get kicked @ Maw. your “kitten” sure thats griefing.

Lets say : OP says, Oh, my kid got back from the hospital after almost dying, he only has a day before he has to go back, and he wanted a fotm 10 badly, so im so sorry, i didnt mean any harm, but you were kicked at Maw, so he can get his spot.
<<<There is no intent to grief, but its still griefing imo. Its not the kicked players fault.

I came to warrior from a guardian main. I found PVT/Knights/Heal Shout/Banner Regen to be the most inneffective gear possible. I died just as much or more than with zerker. They did not help even 5 percent and I cant justify almost ever using them besides some “Skip/Run parts” or some higher level fractals levels when im just playing like a bad kid.

Why doesnt tanky help a warrior? Well most things are a 1/2/3 Shot kill, and all the defense in the world wont help you. If you cant burst things down fast enough (i.e. non zerk gear) It will kill you. Just learn the class, and honestly you will survive the same or better in zerk gear than with tanky gear

If they were scamming/griefing you it surely is illegal. If you left out key details like, Oh before that I cursed them out, made fun of their moms, went afk for an hour and insisted on skipping when they wanted to kill, well then it probaly isnt illegal. If your a innocent angel, report and Anet should take action.

Edit: you dont need screens although they help immensly. you can send a email to anet rather than just the text box.
