Guild Wars 2

How to get God of pvp: queue on alt account duo’d with someone high mmr, win every game during placement matches on the last day before season ends, congrats you’re the #1 best pvper.

If you’re using sword 3 on someone and they take a telepad, you just do your animation on the pad and do 0 damage, you can negate every Rev sword 3 by just jumping on a telepad.
You can also jump off ledges to stop sword 3 as well, if this isnt more then enough reason why skyhammer shouldn’t be a ranked map then i dont know what is.

pls hotfix out of of the season.

please fix it where you can change your character in the middle of the match, or make it so you cant change when you’re dead, this has been a bug in the game since season 1, giving you a message saying if you log out you will get deserter, but you’re still able to swap and join without any penalties. You can die in a match, not get stomped and log onto another character and rejoin the game. Depending on your load times it can also be faster then respawning to just swap characters. I dont understand how this has gone un noticed for so long??

Or you just make it a world wide pvp and we all play together ….

This can’t work because EU players will complain about playing on NA based servers cause of lag, and vise versa, nobody wants to play at 250 ping.

A few changes I feel would be good to help this situation would be
Pain absorption cost changed to 20. ( atm when entering a fight if you have to pop pain absorption early, you’ll be energy starved and cant do anything but run around or auto attack for dps.

Unyielding anguish lasting 8 seconds instead of 4. ( the ability is practically useless, it only has very situational use, like a lot of rev skills :c make it an actual field )

Renewing wave instant cast, this is the only condi cleanse power rev has besides 1 condi on stance swap and leadership rune and the cast is so long by the time you get it off the damage is done, it doesn’t make any sense for this to have such a long cast time or even one at all.

Punishing sweep \ Debilitating slam also needs some kind of rework, its nearly impossible to land the ability unless you have very good latency.

Lucentfir.7430:

You must be playing Condi Rev wrong or going against classes that corrupt resistance. Mallyx Revs should love burn guards in teamfights, especially if you’re running the copy condition trait, and most of the time against condi warriors when they pop their resistance you can boon strip it.

Condi warrs have have better condi burst output then condi rev though, they also have better utilities, you’d rather have a condi warr on your team then a condi rev, there’s no place for them, if the other team has a bunch of burn guards, you’d rather have an ele over condi rev. If Mallyx utilities didnt cost so much energy it would be more viable, but as of right now you have to spam pain absorption since everyones condi and your struggling to micro manage your energy if you try and set up any burst.

condi rev loses to burn guard, condi warr of every variant, necro(obviously) and mesmer 1v1. As a power rev in this meta you don’t have enough condi cleanse to sustain in a team fight, and since all of condi revs burst skills damage is nerfed to unnessacary amounts you cant even be as effective of a roamer as thief.
Condi classes are going to flourish the ladders if there isnt a few strong power classes to help counter them, if Anet were to look at the class balance for the current season, already on the first day it’s extremely imbalanced, this meta is going to be condi and bunk, and there wont be a power rev to kill them through blocks. and thiefs are going to melt from 1 burn guard skill. The only place where a power rev would be effective is in a coordinated 5v5 team scenario, which is gone this season.

They look good ANet! God of PvP being tied to Rank 1 made me so sad XD. Good luck to everyone trying to make it between Rank 1 – 250!

Rank 1: God of PvP.
Rank 2: Legendary Demigod.
Rank 3: Immortal Legend.
Rank 4 – 10: Unyielding Legend.
Rank 11 – 25: Relentless Legend.
Rank 26 – 100: Ruthless Legend.
Rank 101 – 250: Merciless Legend.

Sick world of warcraft arena pvp season titles with Legend instead of Gladiator

Could you guys extend the availability for Revenge of the Capricorn achievements? It’s pretty hard to get the map with everyone selecting Eternal Coliseum, not to mention wanting to play Ranked.

Necro survivability is fine, position yourself properly, have team mates peel teleporting melee off you until you can get some condis out and life force generation, the class definitely is not “too squishy”.

Yeah I hope they go back to the S3 match making too, but even then, people will cry and moan about it, so who knows.

add one of the players from each team and wait for them to get into a match before you queue, that way you dont get stuck with premade baddies.

There’s also not a lot of reason to continue queuing at ranked in S4, most good players are done with their legendary wings and have the achievements completed and are most likely playing unranked in the eternal coliseum map

Wait there’s a difference in the quality of players throughout divisions for some people? LOL.

Will these tickets be useless after Season 4? Will they only be useful to buy Season 1 – 4 PVP items? Will they be useful in Season 5? Can we get an answer before it’s too late.

remove dolyak rune problem solved

They need to do something to change how DC’d players affect your pips, ive had people be DC’d for more then half the match and STILL lose a pip and winstreak bonus, with them being DC’d for far over 3 minutes. It’s a pretty trash system currently.

Smooth Penguin.5294:

I think Druids have just a wee too much bunker in them. With a Toughness and Healing Power build, Druids can contest points for the whole match solo. When I’ve been fighting 1 v 1 using my Engi, I get him down to half HP, then poof, full heal. 5 minutes later, I need to call for backup because he just won’t go away. IMO, Druids are more OP than Dragon Hunters.

Definitely agree, id say Druid is the best class for Spvp currently, a good druid can easily carry a team, excellent mobility, excellent survival and good burst damage as well as team support and stealth\rez utility.

Lord Hammer Hand.4815:

seriously why do u care if others got it w/o reaching legend, its just a title. just look at those players who use those title with doubt if they earn it and move along. u might say it removes the value of the title but that value is base on others perception. i still rock my primordial legend title, or legendary champion because those sound better for me. but your right anet cant keep making same mistakes like this because if so why even bother pvping to get to legend.

I care because it is the exclusive reward for reaching legend in season 3. It took me a lot of effort to get it. Why should people who didnt put in the effort to reach legend get it.

Agreed, though id never wear the title, it does devalue it and isn’t fair to players that earned it, it would also be an easy fix for Anet since even you can view your ranking of last season in game.

Ruru.1302:

5 mans can queue into any number of premades. just not all solo queue.

edit: besides, premades are almost always easy to farm because they group up due to lack of individual skill anyway

That’s very true.

I thought 5 mans couldn’t queue intro anything but 5 mans? why change the system after S2\S3? it was perfectly fine before, this current mmr just doesn’t make any sense lol.

Anet needs to just change the MMR system back to S2\S3, look at how high the legend players are on the leaderboard #1 is 5×. S2 and S3 people were at 10x+. the old MMR system was thriving with much more life.

Sounds like a bad idea, players who want to PVP will PVP, players who want to PVE will PVE, making an alternative route to give PVP players ascended gear isnt a bad thing, as long as it isnt easier then getting them in PVE, thus making players feel obligated to PVP to get geared in PVE.

Pretty much, but the majority of GW2 pvpers arent very good, only like 0.1% of the pvp population on GW2 has competent players. I dont think the league system is rather healthy for the game anyways.

I agree, pro tip though, if you wait till midway \ end of the season to push to legend its going to be a lot harder if not impossible, you’re going to get stuck with trash the entire way up to legend.

please remove dolyak rune, it’s OP as hell with menders amulet

pls add gift of battle for Spvp, WvW is trash and you shouldnt be forced to suffer through it to craft legendaries.

Is there any reward for playing in S4? I have the wings and I’m not seeing a title in the achievement section and have 210 pvp tickets rotting.

The “Bashing Bauxite Alchemicals” event is bugged, the NPCs are standing around doing nothing and i’ve tried everything to try and reset them to fix it, could a GM please reset the event, thank you. The event is in Malchor’s Leap.

I feel like the best system would be to keep the drop rates as they are now, but add a repeatable achievement in that will 100% give you a box after X amount of Treasure mushrooms, so even if you spend a year killing mushrooms at least you’re making progress towards your guaranteed boot box. Maybe 500-1000 mushroom kills?

WvW needs a gearing system similar to Spvp, some of the rune and sigil combos in wvw is ridiculous, like perplexity, you can be half kittened and kill anyone 1v1. You can stack 18 confusion on someone and they die while channeling their heal. Just make WvW competitive like Spvp and it’ll greatly improve the experience, though I hardly care, but since i’m being forced to play WvW to get Gift of battles now, I figured i’d toss in my 2 cents.

tried google and wiki and couldnt find a recent post about it, thanks.

Could also add the reward track to Spvp, the pvp in GW2 that people care about :^)

Or maybe get reward track progress for killing players, i’m in T1 wvw group and i’m easily 1v4ing 80s at 1000+ wvw rank in fractals gear. wvw is a joke.

I don’t see how forcing players to play wvw ( gw2s deadest and kittentiest content) to craft their legendary weapons is going to spring life into wvw, it’s not. The reward track is cool, but removing it from the vendor wasn’t necessary at all.

Where’s our swimsuit \ bikini skins Anet. * throws money at screen*

PS don’t make them an outfit so we can use with invisible boots.

Zenith.7301:

Feels really crappy that the moment I equip Bolt my beautiful Astralaria footfalls stop happening.

Also, please scale footfalls to race. It’s really dumb that my male norn has the same small footfall size as my sylvari, makes the footfalls really noticeable on smaller races and pretty much imperceptible on a male norn.

And please extend the HoT legendary footfall lingering. The difference between my Eternity footfalls and my Nevermore is immense.

Great idea, I’d love for the footfalls to alternate.

EdgarMTanaka.7291:

Why do we even bother? Leagues brings toxicity to the game and people are just farming the backpack anyway. Why not trash the league and just have the achievements to earn the backpack? Grindy but achieavable avhievements no matter how good you are.

PvP is starting to be horrible and I am on the brink of quitting.

If you dont like the leagues dont play ranked. Nobody is forcing you to. I enjoy the league system just for the sake of progression. But I’ve also easily gotten legendary every season, so 99% of this forum wont agree with me.

There’s really no point to play the new season if there’s nothing new to work on.

For players that already have the legendary backpack, and all rewards from the vendor that cost pvp league tickets, what are we suppose to spend them on? There’s nothing to look forward to when playing, just another title. Couldnt you guys of added something? glorious hero’s armor… pvp skins removed when they pvp wardrobe was removed.. maybe some rare pve skins?

I don’t think the PT change will really matter, even pre nerf you werent able to catch thiefs spamming SB #5. 1 PT is enough to counter every other classes mobility

That seems really fishy, before the match even started that rev was outside the door. And that’s too far of a distance for phase traversal anyways. I’d send the video in to Anet.

I’d love some new reward tracks, even if they give items already inside the game. It does get old doing the same ones over and over just for the sake of having a reward track.

Jhoul.6923:

Well, I don’t know if you played the game when repairing had a cost.

They did an election where one of the candidates offered to nullify the repair cost to the ppl that where fighting for Tyria.

She won, and she honored her word as a polititian, hence she removed the cost of repair.

Sooo I do get you, but lore wise you must understand that it is free to the players that are basically the army, but the NPC that are not part of the army don’t get their armor fixed for free.

So yeah, it is not free, Tyrian government is basically paying for it.

Ah gotcha, that’s a more logical answer then above, thank you.

Ellieanna.5027:

There was a time where it did cost money. And it is worth it. Otherwise people who just keep dying and rezzing for something instead of trying.

And WvW most certainly needs it.

Then only allow gear to break in WvW, it’s completely useless everywhere else in the game. And it’s still pretty useless even inside WvW, you can just WP and repair at the spawn. Chances of you dying 7 times completely and getting hard rezzed in 1 fight is slim to none.

What’s the point of even keeping durability in this game? It doesn’t cost anything to repair, it just inconveniences you and wastes your time. Just remove it.

Why should people need to inconvenience themselves by swapping to X class at the end of the game, or playing X class just for the win daily for Spvp, just make it 1 win, unranked\ranked, if anything it’ll encourage unranked\ranked over hotjoin for getting your daily 2g and 10 ap.

Now they just need to nerf thief damage, steal> 1 shot, every popular build viable, S\D S\P D\P, condi, staff all meta. all viable to legend, lets see it anet

Another change that I forgot to include is not allowing blocked players to join your group. If they’re on your block list, why would you want to group with them?
