Guild Wars 2

If you don’t know how to play, play some easy class. Very good idea start to boost some classes just because most of people can’t even choose right weapon. If you play ele use frigging staff and heal.

In hot joins people rage just because a 1v1 turns into a 2v1

I rage because 8 vs 8 fight in center turns into 4 vs 8 because 4 our noobs trying to cap some points.

Over 3700h and 0 precursors.

This is like asking why people think that Braveheart is better movie than karate kid.

I think that everybody have less players. Nowadays we often have outmanned in prime time.

Good game. Ascended crafting is little bit pain and game would be even more fun if i would l2p.

Play with smart players who can think and know what to do. Often controlled chaos with good player is much more effective than very controlled tight melee train.

At least some heavy armors are frigging cool. My PTSD warrior is just too awesome.

Good engineer

I never win any fights in www, but i am still top player in hot joins and tell everybody in chat how bad they are compared www pros.

Well you can avoid nades without using dodge so it’s kind of natural that those do good damage.

Power specs actually need to invest less in offense.

Why anybody would pay 5g?

Veterans could learn use same combos as players.

They can’t go sPvP because people use same builds there.

MFWIC.6091:

ok so for all you defenders of condi bunker builds: WAKE THA kitten UP!
and realize its broken. Dire stats give you c/t/v so you max out your dmg your toughness and your vitality. Yes its not effective in zerg play but the issue is not there but in solo roaming/dueling.
Go to OS and see who is it dominated by. Condition necros, mesmers, thief, engies and even eles and warriors.
Regular power builds stand little to no chance against your regular condition build with dire stats/perplexity runes.
The reality is that in those situations delivering direct damage is a lot harder and is a lot less rewarding than delivering passive damage and just kiting around.
So where is the balance?

So PVT is max damage gear too.

but can go people on this map when dont have full normal maps?

cause all i know bout this maps is they should be something like overflow for WvW – or im wrong?

You can use the new map as a waiting room while queuing for a traditional map. You can also enter EotM straightaway and play there without ever touching the other maps.

lol how useless – than why not make all maps like this^^

noone will join for normal map

Normal maps are PPT maps and PPT just ruin every fight.

This bring fun back in www. There will be less blobbing because everybody isn’t in same TS or at least blobs are much less organized so smaller guilds can have fun too.

Most of the map is karma trains, sadly. It’s not really that interesting as far as I’m concerned.

Karma train drops loot just like other trains.

This bring fun back in www. There will be less blobbing because everybody isn’t in same TS or at least blobs are much less organized so smaller guilds can have fun too.

Try to enjoy combat, because this game get boring fast if you play it like normal mmorpg. So don’t just stand there and auto attack even if mob can’t really kill you. It’s good dodge practice kill mobs without taking any dmg.

Because esport is stupid and for some reason all bad games have lot’s of viewers.

Champs could spawn in random places too.

Scarlett is sylvari, not orc?

Anet really should do this so everybody can enjoy game. I know that some disabled players use mmo mouses or special keyboards like logitech G13. I just haven’t tested G13 so i don’t really know how well it work with GW2.

Dee Jay.2460:

But none of that is an excuse to have them being so ridiculously overpowered and dominant as they are in current PvP combat.

WWW forum. We should talk about www not wannabe sPvP in www maps. Conditions are underpowered in current www combat.

I don’t really see problem. There isn’t dmg boost and stuff so this doesn’t really matter.

One of the biggest balancing problems in this game is that no build should be able to produce large amounts of damage (condition or otherwise) and still be extremely tanky.

Not the issue. The problem is being able to produce large amounts of damage and still have extreme damage mitigation. This can include being tanky, but it also includes being stealthed for 80% of the fight, being invulnerable, and over abundance of control effects (knockback, pull, knockdown, etc). Any weapon or class that is capable of avoiding damage through these means needs to have the weapons that cause them nerfed in damage. Hammer needs to do way less damage with warrior, invuln for mist form and F4 shatter need to be reworked, and stealth needs to have duration cut in half, or more ways to get the thief out of stealth.

Everybody can relate to just minding your own business, rotating camera around scoping out enemies, then, bang, out of nowhere you’re stunned by basilisk venom, 5k cloak and dagger, invisible thief so you can’t interrupt the chain or escape because of the stun, then 6k backstab. before you can even react the thief has either healed for stealth, cloak and dagger again, etc. it’s just ridiculous.

Mitigation abilities and traits are a separate issue entirely, but I very much agree with you. I’d personally love to see all forms of active mitigation have their durations cut dramatically across the board so that timing and skill would become more of a thing.

My original post was specifically referring to build options and baseline stats being so generous. You can build very heavily into power or condition damage and still have over 3000 toughness. In my opinion, things like PVT shouldn’t exist because it takes away the idea of having to make sacrifices for damage or survivability. But that’s simply how this game operates and I absolutely use PVT on some of my power characters.

Yes because now it too hard to kill enemy. Thief need to hit like 3 times when enemy should die one hit.

Good idea would be that questing players could kill other server players.

Good ele is good, bad ele is useless.

Install MSI afterburner and HWinfo and do some mad configurations (you can find some guide). Playclaw have this option too, but it’s not free software.

Warriors stay alive, other noobs burn.

I don’t really even play anymore. I just do dailys and try to get enough mats to craft time gated mats every day. After this is don’t usually have any motivation do anything fun in game. Game was ten times better before ascended gear.

Thief can’t use dodge while they are in stealth?

Weird that was kind of entertaining.

Sounds kind of unfair that there actually is some way to hit thief.

My new favorite.

OP is more emo than Malchor.

Judge Banks.9018:

Better games exist for pvp.

Like what? Warhammer closed servers and private server doesn’t yet work that well so i can’t think any better games.

Where you get dragonite if orr is empty?

Well crazed mobs in south sun are fun. Good practice. There should be some zone full of very hard mobs and even harder mobs.

Well there come point when you need to two man/solo dungeons or play PvP if you want challenge. Of course it depends little bit about play style and spec too. If you play some knight geared warrior only champs can kill you in open world PvE no matter how badly you play.

Because there isn’t any fun casual game mode that would be little bit like www, but in smaller map and matches would last like 20 min.

Maybe you are just bad resser (is that even word?). Often smaller group win just because of downed state.

Without aoe cap defending keeps and towers would take some serious skill. At least now you can take keep against larger force and you can defend against larger force.

Jumping is like main thing in mmos so i can’t play gw1.

What the kitten you would do in your house? Sounds boring. If anet would wanna do something really cool they could give us ships so people could sail in some extreme hc zones and get good loot. Much better idea than some stupid house.

But think if some boss would wipe whole zerg and players wouldn’t get any reward. Kitten they would rage like crazy in forums.

New map to address the Queue’s due to arrive when there are no queue’s left in any tier.
All the effort gone into an overflow map that has no effect on the outcome of the weekly match and there wont even be an overflow.

You can join EotM whenever you want. It is labeled as an overflow kinda, but it is just another map you can join, like Ob Sanctum.

It has no bearing on server score, because it contains every server (all NA servers are grouped together when joining the map, and so are all EU)

People just love to find things to complain about lol

What’s the use of this map then.

Real fighting without PPT hero whining in map chat.

Well everything is so easy that you don’t really need support. They should make so hard content that you can’t complete it without support classes.
