Guild Wars 2

If you dont have any port/jump skills you deserve it. But in that case a rifle warrior/nade engi/ any range attack kill you. It should be a stone/paper/scissor. I cant beat condi/range/melee with the same build and not everybody can build against me.
Gw1 was hex/condi/range/melee builds. Gw2 is much easyer. Physical melee and condi. Now the melee joined the game (but its still weak) and some people dont like it because they need to adapt :/
(And new rangers are an excelent counter of the sfr melee monoblob)

Frost spirit is nerfed to hell. Check it. Spotter is nerfed too, because crit nerf and its not a class mechanism. We are talking about sacraficing our pets for bonus

Ranger is still the easyest to beat class, just got one good skill what can be dodged because that have a 2 and a half second cast time. If you cant react on a that long skill pls never drive in real life. Normal human reaction time is 0.2 second what is 12x less as the cast time of RF. So if you are not brain dead you can react after the first and befor the second hit

I think it should buff the ranger and if you trait for it affect the party. The actual meta is 2 gua 2 warr and 1 more gwen. If this buff stack with others it could take a part as the 5th party member.
Example +pvt and remove condi on evry x hit if you have a bear, + crit, crit dmg and bleed on every y hit for cats, condi and poison after spiders etc…
Other classes give 180 stat points without class mechanic sacrafice. I think rangers should do minimum the same or more.

Personaly i think in wvw the aspect or spirit mode as you call is the only sollution for wvw players

Swoop have problems to. Sometimes you just walk in place and after that you jump a little. Other times you land somewhere and it teleports you 2 steps right.

I have the full GWEN + ranger. I main a shout warrior on raids but my first character was a ranger. After patch a lot of players started to cry because they dont like to adapt. Some days after the patch everybody think the same again: nice, but still not good enough.
I can talk about wvw only, where i play. Pets leeching our power while give us nothing on the battlefield or in/front of the tower they die randomly or do nothing. While roaming the places are too big for pets, an average player can kite them to hell.
What do you think? What will or what should be the next update?

Try wvw with a real good guild. Beat sfr zerg with 23 people and you are on the same level as us. After that beat us

Atherakhia.4086:

From a WvW perspective, the problems with the class have not improved. Rangers are still ostracized and completely irrelevant. On one hand I have seen some Rangers in GvGs since patch. On the downside, they’re still steamrolled and taken out of the fight in the first 10 seconds :/

As the gentleman says. I play only wvw and now the ranger is funny but still not usefull. Bad players start to panic when they see the lot of numbers flashing from rapid fire but thats all. Pets still useless

But fire and air working well together

If you are good you can make 10-12 gold within 4 hours!
Wait. That was good in the 3rd month of the game

Maybe he have blue or green armors. My max hit was ~6k on a not upleveled but mostly i deal 3-4k on light classes max.

Not bad at all dude!

Everybody want changes. I vote on map rotation not diferent maps

I this kind of tactics must be the part of the game. Server level tactics and cooperations are wonderful things

Spy or friend on another server. Who knows.
I play on deso and sometimes we have more spys on TS as players. Mostly if we play against SFR

Pet ai bound to the mobs ai. They will never will be a real part of us. I support the old, good aspect idea. If you put away your pet you gain bonuses depending on your pet. Pets not working in large scale (everything more kitten enemy)
I think pets are the last problem what rangers have (and maybe sword root)

Most of the changes make the players leave wvw what is not good. I think let in less players is not a good sollution. Give the players something why they come and fill all the borders. Outmanned problem solved

Eles and engis have the most buttons, but you must to press perfectly every key with every profession to be good

Dont use ranger if you want to play in any high level content

A lot of players farm dungeons because its worth it. Players play fractals because they need ascendeds and also a good money. Tons of players farm bosses because free yellows!
We, wvw players can buy cheap armor but to farm the badges we need much more time as a pve player to farm the money.
First reduce eotm badge drop ( or add more to wvw) and give us real rewards (Tx material bags, equickment boxes, new fancy skins etc… For badges)
Merging servers just a hotfix. Players need motivation to play (heroes weapons are not enough, sorry) complete 5 events is not a motivation to play a full week.
Repeatable achivements, funny titles for less then 1kk dolykill and so on… Just qol changes mostly, you dont need to reprogram the whole game
And btw remove normal xp pls and add lvling tomes.
Thx

I just dont like passive mechanism as stealth. And stealth is a deffensive + offensive +mobility + survival ability what is too much

I dont have any problem with thecurrent wvw meta. Zerker focus, tank melee, condi roamers.you just need to match your style withthe game form what you want. Dont be surprised you die if you play a zerker melee

Rapid fire is well telegraphed. Numbers start to flash and your combat log shows the skill. If you have better reflexes as a dead fish and you was unprepared you can dodge the 3rd hit. Its still a 2 and a half sec cast and human reflexes are 0.2 seconds
My 2 cents: the skill is too long, hard to dodge with 1 dodge. Reduce the casting time

I hope they will add something play more win more mechanism. Repeatable achis whats give you tickets. Othervise i like this short tournament and weekly rewards

+1
Its a QOL life thing

Sure. I think its just one more thing what we must learn to handle.
Its a stay close and win or panic and die thing

If you know the tricky places no way to counter them in time.

I still think the oversieging is the trollest thing and greatest funkiller mechanism.
15 sieges in a little tower is common. Sieging a t3 keep for hours is just not fun. I dont say delete sieges from the game but now the sieges are about siege weapon-anti siege-siege disablers. No real fights. The only way to capture a sieged objective if you avoid the fight and ninja the objective (0 fun)

There are still tricks how you can place sieges on walls while the aoe cant touch them

SpellOfIniquity.1780:

I never got why sharks are in a marsh anyway.. The only shark that can even live in fresh water is the bull shark and they still couldn’t survive in a marsh..

And if all harpies are female how do they reproduce? Stimulation that induces pregnancy?

Same question for grawl, if they’re all male how do they reproduce?

ANET Y U NO MAKE SENSE.

maybe they just look like boys and girls and have 2 sexes but the difference for our eyes are not that clear
Or maybe thats not an occasional event that they live close to each other

I have GWEN+ranger. I mained ranger for a year after that changed to warrior. So now i have 1 year ranger and 1 year warrior experience. If a warrior go close to a ranger the little pet huger will be dead, if the rangers target start to panic nothing can save her. The ranger cant handle with conditions, face rubbers and cant open distance to continnue pewpew. I give 2 weeks to the rangers and everybody learn the easy counterplay and they will be free kills again

Its a shock for most players because now rangers are a thread. And its not a problem i think if you cant counter everything. Pewpew rangers condi remowal is low example. You can handle with them if you give up half of your damage

Last line for warriors give crit dmg+recharge for f1 and traits for burst skills so thats your best friend if you want to be an int sigil killshot warrior where you need 0 crit chance

Sieges should be used and destroyed by every color on the map. Preventing troll and acidental destroying, 5-10 players shold hit the same thing to damage on it.
You should rise the cap aoe of the sieges. 2-3 trebs, 9 ac, 3 ballista and 2 cata in a tower while you can disable with 1 trick every rams? I think this is also a kind of siege trolling. The objects have a guild buff radius, maybe tie the siege limit to that radius.
If you want to prevent troll supply spending add a 20 supply limit in 1 min cooldown what you can use (20 is the max cap of the supply what somebody can carry)

Finaly rangers have 1 good skill

You want to land 100b? Skull crack, flurry, bolas and you have full free cast. Hammerstun or bull for a part. I think still easyer to land a full 100b than a full rapid fire

I sense a thief who died on eotm thx to this rune :P

Normal weapon skill vs. 6th extra skill
2.5 sec cast vs. 1 3/4 sec cast
Can move while casting vs. Cant move
10 little hits vs. 1 big
Easyer to dodge a part of it vs. Everything or nothing
Working well with fire and air sigil vs. Intelligent sigil 100% crit
If you are not aware you have time to react vs. You are dead
65300 zerker vs. 30506 cavalier makes nearly same damage but 3.5k armor
LB is your only friend vs. You can swap in every 5 secs
1500 range when traited vs. 1500 range basic
10 sec basic recharge vs. 10 sec basic recharge
8 sec traited recharge vs. 7 sec traited
Apply vulnerability vs. You can cast signet of might while channelling to be unblockable

LB rangers have very low survive ability. If you go close and start stepping through them they skills will be interrupted. And if they change to second weapon you have 9 seconds to win. A LB rangers only weapon is the bow because she spent all of her traits on it.

Yeah! Finaly remove nab ranger pet mechanism. Everybody hate it

Mostly guardians with banish do that

This is why guild raids exist

The performance is better as ever. The players are better as ever. We just need some new things

stealth shoud have some minimal visible effect like this

http://allthisrunningaround.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/predator_camouflage.jpg

and remove revail from game

its totaly ok form me because make sense, just next time pls add it to release notes. i wondered so hard why i not gain sigil stacks

Theres a trick: you can immobilize them befor going vapor.

Next time pls change it to: complete 5 daily wvw achivements

Yes, i know guilds with mentaly challenged players whos simply not go close to any fight where they see any other non enemy player. They transfered after a month without fight, because they dont want to blob (once they stoped fight because i was close to them and nearly every day standed an hour on spawn and shouted to everyone to not follow them)
Ofcourse they disbanded after one more month.
With Golden Horde we make closed raids with max 27-8 players (mostly less) but always 2-3 pugs follow us whos die first and rally a ton of enemy. Its a learn to play issue. If you good enough you can handle it. Our record was beat sfr zoneblob with 23

I like play wvw and i like be revarded for doing it good
