So since you are now legendary you should be paired up with other high MMR players.

So uhh they should all,know how to rotate where you are queueing at.

But he blame ruby ppl as i can understand from his post, So all simple. Our Legendary friend had some Amber friends. We all know more Amber friend mean better pvp skill and higher Division.
So when he que with amber friend matching give him 2-3 random ruby in his team vs ruby/sapphire enemy. Enemy was stronger and won. Maybe even got 2 pips for that and topic starter lose 2 pips.
After that topic starter come to forum and blame his team, coz he hate when ppl blame team and dont blame themself

You do know that as legendary, we get grouped with rubies and diamonds right? Or did you think that we get grouped with 9 other legendary players? Lmao.

But you’re right, I queued with some of my friends who were from other divisions (blasphemy! I can only queue with other legendary players right?) and got mainly rubies on my team as a result.

Ofc i know it. And yes i think group legendary with other legendary or diamonds its not bad idea. And why u think que with player who have much lower division than you its right? It not right, but anet dont care about it.

And if u think its a big secret why ppl que with low division player’s you a wrong.
2 days ago i que with friend we both ruby. half way to dimond. We got same full premaid with 1 legendary player 2 ruby’s, emerald and sapphire 2 times in raw. First time we won, it was close game but we did it as 1 duo group +3 random. All ruby. And u know what. After we start next fight we notise that they emerald become sapphire. Its mean they got pip for lose. They lose as premaid team vs randoms and system give them a pip for it. Coz it was to hard for they legendary player i think. We lose second match vs they, and lose pip ofc. And after 2 matches. We won 1 time, lose 1 time. We got nothing. They lose 1 time, won 1 time. They got 2 pips.

And then you come here and telling me that all ok with system Legendary players play vs low divisions, que with smurf accounts, got pips for they loses even when fight as premaid vs solo/duo. And i just need l2p, coz i noob from ruby.

Pretty sure that was me with my guildies and there wasn’t a legendary player, he was Diamond. I know this cause I was the one who got to Sapphire from the loss as it was like 20 points in it. Our Emereld player literally downloaded the game 2 weeks ago and I started 3 weeks ago.

Wait a minute, you start this game 3 weeks ago, then run around the forums telling veteran players who lament the state of this game how wrong they are? You havent seen this game at its best/finest state: anywhere pre-Hot/23 june. Get your kitten together and stop.thinking tou know more about this game than guys who have exponentially more gametime than yourself… And no im nit referring.to.myself.by any means

Tfw 90% of the proleagues twitch chat just trash the game/devs. I regularly watch smite too that that isnt the case lol

Locuz.2651:

MAN.9046:

leeto got to diamond by solo q’ing purely, i say that with confidence cuz he streamed all of it

And leeto is quite average…so if he can do it… :P

which further negates mister shovel’s statement

esports means ESPARTZZZ

Shovel Face.4512:

I highly doubt anyone has gotten to diamond by solo Q. It is just thoeorietically impossible. No matter how good you are, the matchmaking system will pair u with crap players. And I’ll make this abundantly clear, NO ONE IS GOOD ENOUGH TO CARRY A BAD TEAM. No one. I don’t care how good you are, when you’re in Ruby, THEY WILL PAIR U WITH CRAP PLAYERS. All the diamond players I know say it is impossible to get out of Ruby solo Q and that they usually had to duo or trio Q. Just throwin this out there.

leeto got to diamond by solo q’ing purely, i say that with confidence cuz he streamed all of it

im usually too salty to type in chat> switch to combat tab. soory boiz

cuz we gotta feed the esport boiz How else will tryhard ratsquads aspiring to reach esports status do that if they can’t practise smacking their head on a keyboard for that perfect bunker mesmer rotation

good ol’ rabid terrormancer is fun
and wellmancer is amusing for downstate cleave, its a guaranteed extra downed enemy body most of the time
then again, I’m in amber
add to that: i’m a vanilla pleb, so i go by what little options i have

nothing to see here boiz; just anet’s genius system at work to keep u at that 50:50 W/L ratio

tfw went to the bathroom for a quick leak and came back to 72-0 and casters saying how this was a shame.. i think they did lol

quick solution to OP’s problem: Don’t play in a ratsquad

Alekt.5803:

As much as I despite Revenants, Chill seems fitting with a class evaporating in mist.

-cough- thief did it first -cough-

thief? whats that?

hopefully everyone realizes this is sarcasm ;_;

It just feels patronizing to get told “gg” when u get 500-100 roflstomped by a 5 man ratsquad. The game wasnt good, it was a trash matchup and the chances of the pugs winning were minimal at most. I keep my GG’s for the actual games that were close/ not stomps :p

i took fear of death over VP cuz im playing rabid/carrion terrormancer, I’m didnt buy HoT, and condi seems like the only effective thing right now :p
i dont feel the difference in survviabilty tbh

i run good ol’ rabid/carrion terrormancer, curses,SR,DM, my 1v1’s are 50:50, its generally gucci until i get chain CC’d (what is stability). And i use corrupt boon, plague signet, and wurm

SMITE and DoTA 2 dont have soloq, but wht they do have is a system that ensures that the majority of the time, both teams have an equal amount of premades, sooo 2+2 on a team and 2+2 on the other, sometimes its 3 on one and two on the other, VERY rarely its full premade vs pugs, its certainly not that way here, pug vs pug are rare, while full teamspeaak ratsquad vs pugs or just a duo q are too common

thread needs nemesis to bash exploiters
in all seriousness though, these people try to ez mode the raid then will later cry about the lack of “challenging group content” :p

everything feels so bloated IMO so everything needs toning down/nerfing (in the CC department especially) execpt daredevil and berserker? Then again I’m a vanilla pleb, i shouldn’t be competing with the $50 boiz am i

SlayerSixx.5763:

DOTA and LOL do it. I take this as a sign that anet is trying (emphasis on trying) to take their game seriously as they push for e-sports.

emphasises trying some more
tryharding
done :^)

tbh my problem is how quickly my dodges get burned (necro, dodges are all i got) 1 dodge for bow #2, 1 for bow 5/4 1 for their test of faith when they trigger, and if they’re smart, elite trap is saved after my dodges are burned, thats all in maybe 5-7 secs, then i have to kite the traps and facetank LB/GS/sword burst skills brfore endurance refills -.-

They need to do something with traps and the unblockable auto attack. You can’t have something that can hit for 1-2k be unblockable. Traps probably need a 15-20% timer increase and maybe some kind of time limit on how long they will last on there own. Getting to an important area and laying a trap down and then if you have a little time you can basically double trap is really strong. I would probably settle for just the auto attack not being unblockable I would be fine with something added to it to compensate.

This is probably my favorite so far.
From the wiki: http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Puncture_Shot

Yup… it’s oh wait… not unblockable?

But on a serious note. If Anet is going to tone down DH (which I as a guardian main can see some justification for) here are the ways there should do it instead of just a dmg and cd nerf (which is a lazy unimaginative way of balancing).

1) Get rid of trapper runes. They shouldn’t be in PvP in the first place.
2) Take the daze off of the adept trapping trait. Add in +25% move speed instead (since guard is the only class without a movement bonus somewhere). Call it trapper’s agility or something.
3) Tone down the damage or the CC on Dragon’s Maw. That skill on a conquest style map is really strong. It is elite, but with its cd I can see where both dmg and CC of that duration is too strong.

PLEASE DON’T JUST NERF THE DAMAGE/CD. Get rid of the things that are actually causing problems.

As an aside a big part of the problem is simply that this is a conquest only PvP game. Traps would suck if they didn’t cover an entire point which people have to stand on.

a guardian main who thinks traps need some adjustment??!! no way.. definitely either a troll or a teef who afk’ed on guard traps :p

I don’t. I don’t do pvp because devs made sure that thief is unplayable vs any half decent players/teams. The only time i queue is with my team and frankly i probably will be just playing revenant or quit game completely once i finished legendary stuff.

Thief is 100% viable, l2p issue.

yeah 100% viable… in HJs vs rabbits kek

Oh you’re right, guess Toker didnt just play thief vs top tier players in the Go4 monthly kek.

toker could play berserker condi and still win abjured are way ahead of their NA competition

which is why sindrrereernerre and magic toker still play it in tourney’s right? Unless you wanna count stabbackstab
edit: toker played rev in the tourney before this months GO4

how to soloQ: play another game
Hi-rez take my moniez
in all seriousness i love this game but it’s no longer “fun” post-HoT, feels like there’s too much CC flying around

the premades and balance are just too much, delete pls

@OP already beat ya to it :p if u wanna pick up a new PvP game try Smite, I did and it’s tons of fun. I love this game but its too much of a clusterkitten right now, plus since leegz r coming, we are likely to just get farmed by ratsquads unless the guys at anet add SoloQ. Or maybe not, how else are we gonna feed the esport boiz, right?

how to counter HoT OP cancer:
become said OP cancer ( ?° ?? ?°)
play a different game for now
I picked up Smite recently, best choice i’ve made in a while
I love this game but its become too infuriating recently, plus $50 aint worth it if ill only play pvp (xpac is kinda PvE centric)

nope, play some Smite life has gotten alot better since i stopped GW2 PvP lol :p.

deleting stuff that summons AI? does this mean mesmers/rangers get deleted?

wonder if core necro having 0 respectable access to stability is OK

you mean when will we get farmed by 5 man ratsquads jacking each other off on TS to “co-ordinated burst”? never i hope, bring back solo q first…

necro’s have been deanding that kitten for 3 years lol. with all due respect why do u think u will succeed :P

this is why i didnt buy HoT heh, knew reaper was gonna be nerfed badly. GG though, only took 5 days to prove my point

Condi necro is REALLY forgiving too IMO, perma weakness on the enemy(plus toughness fro rabid) allows you to eat burst and still come out relatively OK, y personal experience at least :p

warrior is kinda OK too, double endure pain helps. Also bunker guard/settler shoutbow

like, I’d love a free TRIAL just to test out the elite specs(like, 1 day/month), that’s hardly gonna net a loss for a net now will it? And anyone who was on the hedge will make up his mind. Then again the main reason i didn’t buy expac is because i don’t trust anet’s sorry excuse for a “balance team” to not overnerf/overbuff specs/create a 2nd d/d ele, $50 is too much to pay(and no im financially well off :P ) when quality and consistency are not guaranteed, that and I only PvP, maybe when HoT goes for $10-20 I’ll gladly buy it, just like i did with core game.
And I’m not saying they shouldn’t charge $50 for it, it’s completely within their rights to do so.
Oh and the fact that HoT is PvE-centric, yet there are people who only do PvP diminish the value of the expac even more, why would anyone pay full price when they plan on enjoying a minor portion of the product, and that portion is plagued by imbalance issues due to the incompetency of whoever’s in charge lol.
$20 for a PVP add-onn seems more reasonable given all the nonsense present in PvP

didnt u hear? we are espartz now, gotta support the movement by feeding solo q’ers to 5 man ratsquads, how else do you expect esports to happen?

a clearer one..

i’ve been having lots of success w/it too then i noticed the terror ticks…
1 tick is for 200, i wanna make a bug thread or sth but i dont believe the devs will actually see/repond to this, unless im somehow mistaken

Agilitas.2537:

MAN.9046:

RaGe.9834:

yes, very much so

serves u right for tryharding with a ratsquad

I dont get it. why try harding is bad if you want to win?

a) u’re farming f2p’ers and newbies in unranked, hardly fair for them
b)you’re farming solo q’ers in ranked, hardly fair for them either
c)any sembvlance of balancing teams via MMR is cancelled out due to the formation of a ratsquad
d)people in ratsquads call enemy full PUG teams “noobs” and yet they’re more likely than not trash on their on, but TS and all of a sudden they think they’re esports or sth, jumping over the corpse of the necro that 3 of them took down using “co-ordinated burst”
e) it’s because of ratsquads people move to unranked to avoid the likes of yourself, and end up suffering through skyhammer/courtyard and first time pvp’ers(which i dont mind, if there’s 1/2 of them on each team to make it a fair matchup)

RaGe.9834:

yes, very much so

serves u right for tryharding with a ratsquad

the point of ranked is to get farmed by ratsquads

why am i not getting this? my JI+might blows ALWAYS land :/

NO. Keep it the way it is. Otherwise we will keep getting metamaps aka legacy and forest with no chance of getting khylo or temple.
Let me tell you about the map voting system from The Last Of Us multiplayer, where the majority wins (as would OP want). This lead to having a couple of the less popular multiplayer(PvP) maps almost inaccesible since u would always get outvoted. I could go for a few days without playing on the less popular maps, it’s just idiotic. The voting system is perfect the way it is. I dont want to play Forest or Legacy every match tyvm

yeah… 100k. It was against a ratsquad(prolly using TS). who chain CC’d me the first time, used an engi and mesmer moa on me the 2nd encounter, then this. And before anyone trashes me for not transferring this was vs multiple and I was in plague, and i had already used my CD’s

I managed to get “Healing to Allies” now, no idea how i did that on teef.. I’m pretty certain i never saw that kind of thing before today

sooo look at these stats at the right(condies applied/transferred).. no idea where they came from, and this is the first time i’ve seen it. oh and they’re not visible in the stats part with the points captured, players killed etc.. Am I missing something
