Guild Wars 2

I think Shortbow is a fine weapon, maybe a little skilless to use, but a good weapon- If you are not using it for Melee stacking dungeon bosses that is.
Longbow however… shrug

Im all for a set of, say, 10 minis but dont make them like in gw1. Give them the same rarity. Like every Mini exactly 10%. There would still be some price difference depending on what people like the most but not an unreasonable big gap

It always depends on the time window.
What does the most dps in 10 seconds is completely different to what does the most dps in 10 minutes.

Thanks, sadly i cant really use another rune or sigil because then i basically could make the whole build new. Bow is not really a problem, i can dodge Pin Down from 4 races safely and F1 is easy to avoid but its still a problem that it forces me to get off the point and there is nothing i can think of i can do against it. In theory Sword is als not a problem, i know what i have to dodge, lightning reflexes is a good safenet against the sword f1 and if i avoid everything i shouldnt be put under such pressure. However always dodging everything if the fight goes on for a while is easier said than done and if only one thing hits me im already in a pinch, their conditions seem to do such more damage than from other condi builds i encounter. I also seem to get 3-5 stacks bleeding from only one hit of the auto attack alone, very weird. Not to mention the torment, poison blabla when they active the elite signet, is this effect dodgable?
Oh, this is the build im currently running by the way:

To give them a break: They would have to store 44 names for each ranger in the game. Now they only have to store 2 names, which is already 2 more than any other class.

If you can come up with a solution for them without having to store 44 names for each Ranger in the game, then I’m sure they would be glad to hear it.

Wow remembers 55 Pet Names for every Hunter in the game easily

Will be exactly the same as year 1 gift except whit a Knut Whitebear mini instead.
Yay.

Yes the name of the weapon will be the base weapon. That is however a bug which will be fixed. But the the skin and therefore looks will be whatever you choose it to be

Use the weapon whose stats you want and transmute Foefire on it

Azhure.1857:

Heh, ’cause all we need are MORE people/toons running around with legendary weapons. Because granting people an unlocked legendary skin across his/her account just is not enough, no we need more.

You DO know, that this would result in less people running with legendary (skins) around?

I would soooo get all Legendaries even though i find almost all of them ugly

And make his front legs look less weird =)

When does an armor counts as skimpy? When it shows breast cleavage? I see that in RL all the time and also wear it myself, i think thats a pretty normal thing, no?

It depend. Do you fight against monsters in real life ?

What does that get to do with anything?

Look im some player who enjoys pvp and 1vs1, the only reason i play spvp is to fight and kill players 1vs1 im always happy when some dude is running alone to point im standing on battling a fair and bloody fight man thats the spirit.
I /laugh at hambows but theres one warr build i seem to just cant stand up against and thats condi warr with swords and krait runes n all that kitten. See, normally when i die i look up ok what was that what did he do where did i fail ah took that shatter to the face need to look out next time get my eyes more on that pink guy or ok should dodge that and that or whatever but against this guys i dont even have a bloody idea.
That was not some outplay, no specific fail of mine nothing i see i can do better they just kittening kill me i literally have no chance. They melt me like im some ice in hot summer where do they pull that trillion stacks bleed from.
Even with years of applied chilling i dont seem to get their sword of my butt they do not cleanse it or anything they just dont kittening care. Im not even in range of their sword and then empathic bond ticks and i get my condis removad and im like thank god and then immediately here take some 5 stacks of bleeding and that bleeding ticks for some kittening damage and im like what where did that even come from.
And then they have the bow which is not that much of a problem, i dodge 5 sometimes 4 okok dont stand in f1 but heres some problem again they just do f1 on point and if i stand there i die so thats no cool idea so better step out, no? but that kittening field is bigger than whole point and they decap and we loose points, wtf is that 1 free decap for price of one skill? be fullbunker or loose cap?why is that field so big
Than they are so super tanky for me because pet is always dead and since warr ignores pet completely i suppose thats from empathic bond alone and pet is a huge part of my dps, i also in no way will engage them with sword in full melee where that cursed sword from them is just waiting for me but i need extra dogdes from time to time so thats dps loss again since i cant auto attack for like 8 seconds so im left with throwing axes in dem faces and thats not exactly king of damage right here.
If they get to catch me im dead in a matter of a second. that damage is insane, i have disadvantages against some necros or the occasional good engi but nothing comes even close to how this build destroys me and i feel kittening powerless because there literally is nothing i feel i can do.
Look this aint some rant about it being op or something im sure i just suck i just wanna know whats their weakness how can i counterplay them what is there important to know other than dodging sword f1,2,4 and bow 5
Please note im doing relatively fine against almost any other build so its not that my build just sucks or something like that

How did i even for just one second could think it would become something else than a gemshop item

You can get it for 80 gold or so. That’s not completely unreasonable. Granted, I’ll just be buying directly with gems because I’m way wealthier in real life than in game.

Thats not my problem.

How did i even for just one second could think it would become something else than a gemshop item

best profession for roaming equals best profession for running away

What content is more challenging than Dungeons?

No, Shortbow has better dps than axe

I even got three, u mad

i use it on a chill build, works pretty well http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNEQRAnY8fjMqUva5Kusw1aAAhaVA0eGa2Ygd+2BfQBnOA-TBiBABAcCA04gAkz+Dkp87Q9DR8EAYUJooq/EAABYmlZZWmBDdoDdoDdod0Ze0Ze0fWKAmUWB-e

i also have a suggestion:
Change the loot to not be crap
Woo!

Almost all of these except Concentration Training Tail Wind and Companions Defense only have a use when in combat anyway. For Tail Wind its obvious why its combat only Concentration Training has an easy workaround as long as enemies are around and for Companions Defense i kinda agree

drago.2435:

most of those F1 skills are useless.

haha, this line made my day.
Thanks! =)

They switch around but its a weird system and you can end up like my server not being blue for months now

eeeeehrr ok well then good luck

rangers can insta rezz their pet as often and much as they want with it

the backpiece is a joke make it chaos of lyssa lol

Ranger, synergizes also better with steady focus

1) Warriors
2) Elementalists
3)Guardians
4)Necromancers
5)Thiefs
6)Mesmers

Thank Anet and their wonderful spring tournament which gives the good and unique rewards to the full and winning servers only.
Man i wish i wouldnt been so dumb to belive in my server and just switched when i still had the chance, now its too late.
Would liked to have one of these mistforged weapons, oh well will just switch to some favorite server before next tournament

Yeah, title says it all, since they are not immune to her spammed aoe and have no way to avoid it whatsoever everything dies almost instantly. They are all absolutely worthless.
Now you might say well Liadri is a more specialized fight you are not expected to go in there with whatever build and beat it but this is especially bad for rangers which get not just builds but their entire class mechanic rendered absolutely useless. It is utterly impossible to have a living pet in any situation in phase 2. Entire skills and traits dont have any effect at all. For a fight that is completely focused on cleansing that spammed weakness having important condition removals like empathic bond and Signet of the renewal tied to having a living pet is so not funny at all. It also forces to specc out for more dps than other classes have to since a huge chunk of the damage with no choice of getting it some other way is just taken away for no good reason at all. Im trying my best to get the orbs achievement but i already doubt its even doable handicapped like that and i will have to do it on another class.
Oh, and having the pet getting coming out when hit by only a single projectile and it -on passive- standing every possible place but not where the ranger stands makes it already annoying to just get it living through phase 1 since i have to avoid the aoe in a much larger radius than i would have to myself. For mesmers its also quite annoying i believe but their pets are not balanced around living any hits anyway so its not that bad.

Since there were small improvements like pets being immune to laser barriers in aetherblade fractal i believed you were slowly learning that theres nothing cool or fun in giant aoe onehits completely unavoidable for npcs but i guess i was wrong.

Why is it a problem to just make npcs immune to her aoe? You had almost a whole year to do it!

Arent we already mature enough to not get our heads up in the clouds over such senseless stuff?

Mighty Roar -> Rampage As One -> Signet of the Wild -> Signet of the Hunt -> Maul -> Swoop -> Path of Scars -> Quickening Zephyr -> Sword auto

My problem with that combo is doing it defensively, when you are already on the back foot. i mean thats a 5.75 cast time just to get to maul, that is a long time if you are already being attacked.

It is a 2.75 cast time to get to maul. And there is no problem with starting RaO a little earlier as it lasts a while, then its only 1.75 seconds.
But this is not a pvp combo anyway

Mighty Roar → Rampage As One → Signet of the Wild → Signet of the Hunt → Maul → Swoop → Path of Scars → Quickening Zephyr → Sword auto

Farm boxxes to show off???
How do you show off with boxxes?

With an efficient group you can run a tour of ac123, cm13, ta123, se13, cof13, coe123, arah123 + maybe frac in a reasonable time for around 60 gold

Hey there, i noticed the price for the gemstore dyes crashed, so i assumed you can now get a refund if you were using one twice across your characters.
I too used one twice so my simple question is: How do i now get a refund for it? I never bothered for any outgamestuff so i have no idea.
On the same topic i want a refund for a gemstore shirt which turned into a useless tonic as well.

thats why you normally have cast bars

They can compare in that the might an elementalist gives is capped at 25 stacks every might more is wasted, spotter and frost spirit an both be added when them team already has 25 might, fury und enemy 25 vulnerability.
And if your pet screws up dungeon runs you are doing things badly wrong.

Well im not the best pvper out there but im not a total noob either, this is the build im using: http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fNAQRAnY8fjMqUva5Kusw1aAAhaVA0eGa2Ygd+2BfwBnO5A-TZhBwAAOBAaOIA52fIyTAwbZAA
Its a heavily chill based.. err… hybrid damage beastmaster duel build.. or something like that. I dont know if its viable for absolute top level pvp but for me works it works fine. I can win a good 8 or 9 from 10 1vs1 encounters i have in teamq with the only class im scared of by default being tanky condition necromancers.
And i have yet to meet someone i wasnt able to permachill but maybe im only fighting noobs i dont know. Keeping the enemy chilled utilizes the damage of my pet to its maximum for the most time, i think its quite funny actually.
I even got already hate whispers, even from thiefs! Dont know how common that is as a ranger. From my experience i would say the build is like this:

+Pretty good hybrid and pet damage, makes pressure
+good amount of evades
+not exactly untanky
+chill lol

-not exactly unbelievably high damage or survivability, its more balanced
-no way to interrupt an enemy from lets say stomping an ally
-slow outside of combat
-i get beaten to a pulp when facing many enemies at once.

But then again, i dont know that much so it could totally suck, to be honest i dont even know if its meta or not but i highly believe its not.

Hmm looks like just past stuff warmed up…
But eh, at least the visuals where beatiful

We will see nothing of it in 2014 but dont worry- “There are quite a couple of big projects cooking in the background”!

While you wait, did you check the new finisher out? Its only 700 gems!

Scoundrel.2139:

Possibly about the Photoshop, sure.

Clever, aint ya :p

Jokes aside, i was trying to show that a picture like that doesnt necessarily mean the OP really has every item on it.

Wow, would you mind giving me your Eternity perhaps?
Because im currently collecting those!

Nothing like PhotoShop to try and steal praise from someone…

You are wrong, actually.

Guild armors were pvp exclusive armor sets that are currently not availabe anymore.
Only the chest piece can be bought from the guild vendor for 1 gold.
All 3 guild armors have an armor that is almost identical, for the light version its the devout armor available for karma or badges of honor.
