Guild Wars 2

so in other words most puggers today? :P

DXIE I don’t remember playing you but I do score that high, but not always.
No I don’t spvp. Haven’t in months
Tpvp is so full of bad people, how are you surprised?
No I am not tanky. Don’t need to be.
As for for escaping….Your very right its hard. But that’s why you try not to go in solo.
Few groups actually realize target me. Yes in higher end tpvp you would but most don’t.

I am aware thakittens hard to notice the animation. That’s why I commented on enemy animations.

I am going to agree that we need changes. This should be changed as my asura warrior with rifle (same color as armor) is OP.

No one sees the killshot.

read my forum topic I made about it.

Hey guys this is a post about how good warriors CAN be.
I have been scoring upwards of 250 a match with a few exceptions with this build( when you pug and get rank 20 team mates against rank 40’s…love matchmaking…jk)

On a regular basis I would say 3 of 5 matches I am scoring highest and well above 250.

Record so far was 435 points 26 kills. We lost that round. (foefire is annoying)
average score (if you don’t count the losing 500-50 or below when you get 4v5 or rank 1’s) is about 250-350 with 17-21 kills.

KILLSHOT IS O.P

Full GC warrior is one of the oldest builds with greatsword and for kittens and giggles I played….and scored 310 first match.

10/30/0/0/30
zerker/scholar runes/fire sigil
signets of might/fury/rage heal surge/throw bolas

Traits: (in order)
damage on adrenaline
rifle/gs cd traits and your choice but I go with precision with signets\
0
0
signet recharge, crit chance on adrenaline,dmg per boon

Basically my hundred blades hit 12-20k and killshot 8k-15k

Land a bolas…..hundred blade. everyone in the immediate area is now nearly dead.
rifle 2/3/4 and f1. wow eles/mesmers (usually glassier) and thief get nearly 1 hit. (record was 16.5k on a thief)

Just enter a fight with team mates and KILL STUFF. The only skill with this build is positioning and surviving. I’ve had teams that do great stomping (my weakness) vs teams who even after I down someone they leave me to die 1v2. (those are pretty common but I’ve scored 300-350 a lot and still lost)

Some notes: Killshot TRACES thief even in stealth. Hilarious to watch them stealth and know that I kill’d them.
the rifle/gs cd traits.
rifle= lower cd on volley #3 and pierce…. Yes my 14k killshot can go through the ally ressing, kill him and the downed guy at once.
greatsword= might on critical=explain below

This build has 80+ crit chance at all times. (90 on killshot)

so 5-9 hits per hundred blade in a small a.o.e every hit gives me 1 might…. If 2 people try to revive someone and I use hundred blade… I will end up with 20-25 might stacks. I only have 5 normally. That means the last half of my hundred blade hits and normal attacks after are hitting way more.

Any questions?

Thanks,
Bowser Jr.

Lonely….

We dont know how much damage you do so just cause your p/d condi doesnt mean anything.

next mesmers can gives phantasms double the hp….. plus shares mesmers toughness…..

Also 1 phantasm = higher damage, higher survival, actually targets a specific person, and has lower cd’s… better yet doesn’t waste utility….

mesmers not taking condi removal are hilarious when I kill them EVERY SINGLE TIME.

dude…. sad.

He really don’t. Dude I’ve TRIED to make turrets work but you didnt read my last post. ENGINEERS HAVE TO TAKE A CONDI REMOVAL.

so 2 utils.

so next… weapon kit or turret? as turrets are single target and suck…. WEAPON KIT!
o look 1 util left…

look turrets need traited. Even then aoe kills them fast.
rifle turret is single target that I cant chose. Low damage
net turret is op in 1v1’s. tpvp isnt 1v1….
thumper? what a stupid joke.
flame… like thumper but will die faster.
yea…. give us engis like 6 util skills then maybe I’ll being turrets too!

Actually your wrong lonely…

Takes me under a second to find real mesmer. And Yes its easy to guess when they are stealthed.

I gave up with teams as few people want to actually get on at specific times/ use voice/then still suck.

and yea pugs r random sometimes I get lucky but mostly I don’t.

Let’s c here… I play Engineer… Experimental Puff and Purple Fleck..

Puff is hgh nade… But your talking about Purple Fleck!

Yes She is 3-4 kit bunker

Flamethrower is useless. (all around)
bomb kit is useless. (unless your a dps, still lame as nades do far better.)
elixir gun… has 4 useful skills+toolbelt. I run this as bunker on legacy.
tool kit… 2 skills both r amazing.
nade kit- nothing for bunking but nice dps.
med kit… always will b better than healing turret…. no matter what….

I generally run tool kit elix c and depending on map other skill and med kit.
rifle/throw nade…. Yes I can out cc a bunker guardian off point and CAP it over him. Yes I can 1v4 on legacy for a minute or more.
Engineers have highest skill cap due to number of skills when rolling 3-4 kits.
downsides…
NO CONDI REMOVAL IN KITS OMFG OMFG OMFG.
We have to run elix c…. or ANY condi build will have field day.
so… not a 4 kit build.
with other kits no stun breaker unless you count blind from flame kit… which its not.
no immobile breaker…. in kits.
so yea having all my util skills gone makes me soooooo op lemme tell ya…

O btw as a bunker they are helpful. As point roamer…. not so much. You will always run elix c or elixir traits. then generally nade kit for damage, as others stink. Then last util for grabs… but lets c I get 1 utility that I can chose? wow I feel special.

LOL lets not ignore my thief/mesmer /warrior/engi/ AND my ele all might stacking builds….

rembr d/p thief? now imagine it with 3k power…. yes mine does :P
warrior- still has 12-18 might stacks at all times.
engi same as my thief around 10-25 stacks depending on combat status.

Look I know pug vs premade is always the premade but what about pug vs pug?

last 7 of my matches were as follows:

first one 5v5 against rank 40+ entire team. and my team were I am DOUBLE the next highest ranker…. lost 500-200 sumthin….
second match…
4v5 a no show…
third…. against the old pro guild vs my 4v5…. 500-30….. Im a bunker with 916 power…. scored double what 2nd place was…..
fourth…. my team basically zerged yet still didn’t cap a single point… I had 14 decaps…. 14!!! that’s 1 per minute basically. still lost….
fifth….we won by 1 point in a 4v5.. my team with the 5…. i still scored highest… still no clue how….
sixth… i 1v2’d ENTIRE match on far point. decapped. still lost. how my team loses a 4v3 ill never know.
seventh…. 5v5 with 2 rank 1’s…. I quit????

Um why should I even bother playing?

FLIMP.8172:

Team Paradigm does it? They arent quality pvpers?

Because when you get bored of spvp its a lot of fun to go stomp WvW kids, its very easy. lol

Exactly… so I’m doing exactly that, looking for people who want to have fun. What’s with the hate?

I am not hating. Just saying wvw and pvp arent the same. If you are looking for a guild that does both My server has UhOh but im Dragonbrand

^^ I showed my friend who has been wvw since september the trap ranger build and she nearly cried out of happyness.

told me best thing she ever saw.

wvw never played pvp vs a pvp’er

pvp’er as in mists.

^^ I would love to see an experienced wvw beat an experienced pvp. It would be funny to watch.

Look all this anger over how you cant beat mesmers or you think they are too strong means something in your life is wrong. its a game chill lol.

as for the mesmer player I have played mesmer 200 hours in pve… 12 in pvp… never enjoyed it. As for the comeback?

what? Your making this sound like a competition. Chill Out.

Spvp is random but yes alot of thieves. Gw2 is very flavor of the month. atm its thieves. Used to be eles. B4 that warriors. Just play their weakness and enjoy.

Razor.6392:

Go back to school, and learn to read. Once you learned how to read, take a look at this and the other thread, there are many reasons why mesmers are considered imbalanced. Oh and while you’re at it, learn to take part in an argument without sounding extremely childish and nonsensical, that would help too.

Seriously, re-read your post… “hahahah” you’re not even laughing bro. It’s sad. It lacks coherence and any substance. It adds nothing to your PoV and just makes you look like a fool.

You keep complaining about me trolling but every one of your posts in the last hour have been hate filled against me. such a hypocrite.

lol now I remeber,

hmm glass cannon, has limited escapes limited to no blocks,

mesmers have alot of escapes and damage,

I wonder why he is kitten ? trolol.

hahahah the issue is you cant kill one of the glassiest classes ever just because they have a single combo? thats the same as hundred blade that everyone hated.

As for the forgiving skills ( I assume you mean the escapes) last I remember my warrior,necro,trap ranger,and thief have a large amount of forgiving skills, with more damage than mesmers. shame really.

^^
Razor,
BTW playing a tank ele means you cant kill anyone. No wonder you lose to mesmers.

razor,

um where am I wrong?

All I read was your troll comment.

show me a link and ill believe you.

Only a full glass cannon staff ele could do it (dagger is 3 hits scepter is burn)
Which btw no one should run as 14k hp and lowest defense possible is just lame.

fire auto attack for 5k. You sir are a liar. hmm no wonder no one one believes you.

better yet water auto stacks vuln, I have yet to see a working high damage water attune attack. so no ele uses water attune for auto attacks unless they’re other attunes are not up. In which case they need to time them better.

As for utilities that do direct damage…

Warrior…. no utils that do high damage.
guardian… smite condi? most guardians are bunker anyways.
Necro… yes. very much so.
mesmer… obviously none
elementalist… has 2? wave is greatly used.
ranger uses 3 of 3 slots for it as they’re weapons do no damage.
thief… uses none/has none
engineer has no weapon swap and uses kits. technically doesn’t count.

You are correct about the engi bunker. Unfortunately my only working stability is 120s cd. Then I have no heals during duration.
I have no team stability either (elix s throw is so small and random doesn’t count) so eles with aura share kitten my team.

I have seen offensive guardian builds. With the low hp pool and limited aoe personally not as viable. Necro can do same damage with wells with double the hp pool. But yes other builds exist, just don’t work as well.

MEAN SECTION>

Stop complaining about the fact that you are a terrible player we already know that. Stealth is a great mechanic as is clones.

No it isn’t op maybe when you actually l2p you will change your mind. O wait you will never l2p.

Losers always hate what they don’t understand.

As for the fun issue… its fun when you win correct? So stop losing. O wait your complaining about your lack of skill.

It takes less than 2 seconds to find real mesmer.
Stealth isn’t invulnerable.

NICE SECTION>

want some advice?

Mesmer Clones:
No icons.
Doesn’t move. (shatter all of them move 1 direction)
No damage.
Options change show only player names clones won’t show up.
No animations except spam attack.
Call target on real one.
Condi the real one for long time (dead)
aoe the clones (whirlwind is fun)
Mesmers have lowish hp and no armor.

Thief
CND is soooo easy to dodge. They can only use it twice. Dodge it constantly and they wont restealth.
black powder heart seeker costs 9 initiative. they can do it once every 5-6 seconds
stealth isn’t invulnerable. Auto attack,aoe,more than 2 condis, etc and they will constantly take damage. CC, immobilize, and actually hitting them. They either have 17-20k hp and only 2k armor total or 12k hp and 3k armor.
Figure out which your fighting.
Condi wont beat the 20k guy and damage wont beat 3k armor. (not easily)

Learn when to not pick a fight.
Certain builds beat others. Accept them and life is easier.

haha I know the Kingship"ftw"sounded like hypocritical but I simply meant my guild Kingship is awesome. Not about winning fights (we are a great pvp guild) but as in I love our guild.

let me finish this discussion for all you wvw/spvp who think mesmer is op

clone= doesnt move. no icons. doesnt show names if your options is set right. does no damage. call target on real.

wow that’s so hard? I know I have more experience than most of you and certainly more than you who complain about it but it takes less than 2 seconds to find real one.

its the same as saying stealth thieves are invulnerable. haha
L2p.

Skyro you are correct. I am not high level but higher than most.

Each build has a role. No one does it all. Some professions are more varied.

elementalists= d/d or useless.
necro= is aoe support. mostly condi.
mesmers= time warp portals and chaos storm. rest is personal preference.
rangers= trap or useless.
thief is gank (insta kill) build
engineer is generally grenaders
Guardian is bunker.
warriors are.. well always been hundred blade.

instead of making new skills why not fix broken/useless/wimpy skills so new builds can exist?

Solution A: seperate rankings within tournies. example at 41 I really hate being in groups with below 30.
Solution B: don’t allow hotjoins and pre mades in same tournies. separate them.
Solution C: don’t be competitive. I’m not. Idc win or lose it’s a game.
Kingship ftw.
