A primary reason this happens is usually that what you perceive as a serious problem is in fact a minor nuisance – at best – for the majority of players. If it also adds that there’d need to be comparatively large changes to ultimately improve the situation, then you very quickly have a situation which you could but won’t change as a developer – your boss would have your head if you waste 2 weeks coding extra skill splits to balance the top end of sPvP which affects 0,2% of players and in total 0,05% of game time (arbitrary numbers to illustrate why the boss is angry).

This is why this happens in most games. It has nothing to do with developer incompetence, and very rarely with developer disagreement. It has all to do with minor issues, even if the affected are very vocal.

Because, while the forums are largely about sPvP imbalance with a sidedish of WvW imbalance, you see ~nothing of that ingame. This alone already hints at sPvP being a very vocal very-minority. Ingame, you hear about issues like missing QoL changes to guilds, issues with the living story, issues with EotM’s overall balance against the WvW maps or issues with the way the market is evolving.

You also hear a lot about expansions.

The forums are just not a really good indicator of what the players want. It only tells you what the really angry players want, but that might as well be the opposite of what your playerbase which is happily playing – and you could argue that those are your actual target playerbase – would want.

That’s not to say that sPvP balance would be bad. But even personally, I’d have dozens of things I’d rather have dev time spent on than something as minor as that. Muuuuch bigger fish in the pond. Personal PoV, ofc.

PvP in Guild Wars and Guild Wars 2 is the main focus of the game. It should be easy to balance classes, traits, skills, runes, sigils, etc.. Within the sPvp instances.

To be allowed to use their healing skill (Six slot) while in death shroud. In this case the healing skill will heal Death Shroud Life Force Pool, but this will probably make DS to good?

Maybe. Anet wants to see it in action before coming to a conclusion.

Inspect

In game “Inspect”. To inspect others gear, stats, achievements.

Also, website armory – Which is a more in depth “inspect”.

This has probably been suggested before, but the game has been out a little over a year. I would think ArenaNet would have a least made a “beta” of it.

This is simply a/an MMORPG gimmick. But i or most Gw2 would like to see it.

Summon Flesh Wurm

Ex. If i summon the wurm on the third floor of a building and i go down to the second floor. If i choose to teleport back to the wurm. Shouldn’t i be teleported back to its exact position on the third floor?

Or it does not work like that?

It will always teleport me UNDER the wurms position if i placed the wurm on a level/story above me.

Intended?

[Question] Are classes balanced in PvP?

Are classes balanced in PvP?

Why do mesmers stealth more than thieves?
Why do engineers heal so much? ( With little cost)

Two things GW structure PvP needs...

Gw2 game freezing

It’s been a while since i played Gw2. Tonight i felt like messing around a bit, but that was cut short since the game has been freezing. With no other window popping up with a/an error code or something so i can research/google; I’ve resorted coming to the forums.

The freeze happens in-game after 1-6 minutes of play. The character could be standing still with me just moving the camera. And it will still randomly (with no specific action) freeze.

Regardless of what i just wrote this is still too vague for anyone to give me a good solution and/or answer. Is there a Gw2 debugger, repairer, or error generator?
