Decay: the best change to WvW so far

So I log into EB, group with the usual 1 or 2 guildies already on map, kill a few people and stay at t6 til I log off.

See the difference now?
It’s pvp

I was actively participating in PVP (fighting two players) while my participation was decaying. In retrospect, if I had just let them kill me quickly by not participating in the fight, I would have suffered less decay.

You were backcapping 2 players who had flipped the 2 sentries and the camp.. They saw you coming. The sentry reveals you on the minimap as you fight it. I’d have doubled back on you too xD
Bad pvp, bad reward. Best part of WvW over fighting NPC’s is that things like that DO matter.

High condition duration is NOT wasteful dependent on a given classes access to conditions as a whole.

While I am not overly familiar with the Guardian condition build, having durations of 50 percent just as example means the immobilize coming off Zealot’s Embrace in Hammer is 3 seconds rather than 2 and that is a significant difference.

Hammer Condi guard….

Balancing takes place at the ceiling not the floor.

This thread has WvW in the title and is in the WvW subforum. Idk but if Condi reaper is any indication on what level anet balances the game…

Condis do get blocked if the skills that apply them are blocked.

IMO, the problem is when those skills are unblockable, spammy or apply too much condi too easily. It’s a problem with a few broken, unfun builds. Fix those and people would stop complaining so much.

I heard rumor that some players actually use dodge when they fight against condi specs. Of course some players just stand in one place take 8 skill combo, Wonder why they have big condi stacks and come whine forums.

I ve heard rumor ofmost classes having only 2 to 3 dodges available so 8 skill combo will still get 5 in

You mean like autoloot?

Autoloot was a cure for a phenomenon lovingly referred to as “pooping bags”, not laziness. Pressing f was a full-time activity and you’d STILL miss half your bags.

Remove WvW Linking - Give Us Back Our Servers

Posted by: LetoII.3782

The linking has brought the NA bandwagon movement to EU. We really hadn’t seen it in EU prior to linking; again not to the extreme that was happening in NA. SFR was the only server, allegedly, that actively paid for guilds to transfer to its server. It’s why it remained dominant for a long time.

EU players: solo, roamers, guilded, but particularly guilded had discussions amongst each other to ensure that three max big guilds were on each server to ensure a good ratio of fights. These guilds self-organized and helped balance out the rest of the pug masses. And I’m pretty sure none of these guilds cared whether they were in 1st, 2nd or 10th spot: they just wanted to make sure they had the bodies to fight to challenge them and their friends during their leisure time.

As did NA guilds
The buying (and imbalance) was motivated by something much less prevalent in EU, players on the other side of the world. There just simply aren’t enough eastern hemisphere players to go around, and scarcity creates demand. But it’s nice to put oneself on the back occasionally, so have at,

You can just reinstall windows on a new SSD then. I only keep programs and Windows, so I don’t really lose anything but time.

It makes no sense to buy an SSD and not use it. Everything dies. If anything, SSDs are probably actually sturdier than their constantly spinning HDD counterparts which are known to fail. Hell, I remember buying a HDD at Frys and they flat out told me 1/4 of their drives are bad. That was back then though.

It’s not gotten better with spinnys, they’re on the way out and they know it.
But SSD DO have issues with rewriting, here’s a good video explaining people’s reservations about relying on them. https://youtu.be/-XZNr7mS0iw

High Condi duration is wasteful, especially in a zerg.
Better off with additional durability

No its not, higher duration will give you more dps overtime, as the fights go on and people lose resistance and get boon stripped or can’t get condi clear. The more burning you can keep on people, which duration helps you do, the more damage you’ll do to people as the fights go on. You’re already incredibly durable in either trailblazers and dire, the extra duration just makes you more effective at dealing damage.

I’ve never seen a person make it to a fifth tick.
Either they cleanse or they’re dead.

I think increasing the base rate by two and decreasing the Outnumbered buff by two would probably be in the right ballpark – still an incentive, but it doesn’t create the situation where players with lower ranks feel they have to have the buff for it to be worthwhile.

Personally, if loot is what makes WvW “worthwhile” for you, I don’t think any consideration need be made. Once you get that skin you’ll be gone so why not stretch that clock waaaayyy out.

if you are using the Radiance traitline, it recharges on kill,

ftfy

But in essence correct, don’t make a defensive Dragonhunter… moreso for PvE
Sword leaves mace in the dust. Use shield with Test of Faith otherwise use a focus.

Mace/Shield is a proper paladin weapon set… I know. I want to use it too. But Dragonhunter is a hunter, not a healer. That role has been pushed aside by the development team. If you try to be traditionalist you’ll be missing out on the whole point of the traitline.
