Rangers with "from-Stealth" attacks?

in Ranger

Posted by: PearlGore.7419

PearlGore.7419

How can you say Rangers are not meant to have stealth? We are a jack of all trades for one thing, for another we already have a few ways of gaining stealth via a pet and a trait. Although both of those are kind of crappy.

Jack of all trades? Every class is a jack of all trades. That’s the whole point behind not having the holy trinity.

The point of not having the holy trinity was to avoid looking for a tank or healer for hours upon hours.

Well to the guy that mentions Mesmer Phantasims missing, a bug that needed fixing for sure and fast…

Rangers have had a bug since before beta that at times prevents them from hitting ANYTHING with a bow…

I can have a target in range and miss every skill, or that one skill that may have alowed me to win, fix it please.

Man if this game is grinding to you guys, must have never played Tera or Aion or any other MMO for that matter.

In less then a week my fresh 80 almost has a full set of exotic armor, yes I do still need a Longbow and Trinkets, but in other games that armor would have taken months, if I got it at all…

Leveling with a Staff?

in Elementalist

Posted by: PearlGore.7419

PearlGore.7419

So the Staff is a weapon style I realy like, I have yet to roll an Ele, and I realy Don’t like one handed weapons on any class.

Leaving me with one question, would using a Staff to level with be realy bad and make me want to go back to my Ranger or another class with a 2 handed weapon of some sort?

I get that d/d or something else may be better, but would Staff be terrible?

In regards to the opening strike calculations, I don’t really think you can count on your pet applying their opening strike because if you are standing at 1500 range, your pet probably isn’t going to be doing much of anything to the enemy anyways.

Thats another issue entirely, although true.

It was not working with my Shortbow at ANY range before this patch, nor did the pet version work.

Now it does on both accounts, gained about 300-400 damage with a stack of 10 up.

Thanks for the discussion. Looks like it may be one of those two.

Ranger having trouble picking an alt!

So, I love my Ranger despite the clear issues and will continue to use her. But I do want to level at least one other class to 80, problem is I’m having a hell of a time deciding on what class.

As Rangers that love well… Rangers. What other classes have you been able to enjoy most? I have tried all the casters and hate them, I also hated the Guardian. It seems to me that a Warrior might offer work out, I just want something as good at solo PvE as my Ranger.

I’ve played every class pretty extensively in PvP and a little bit in PvE.

For PvP:

  • Ranger
  • Necromancer
  • Engineer
  • Warrior
  • Guardian
  • Mesmer
  • Thief
  • Elementalist

For PvE:

  • Ranger
  • Guardian
  • Engineer
  • Warrior
  • Necromancer
  • Mesmer
  • Thief
  • Elementalist

The other classes are all pretty boring after playing Ranger, to be honest.

I disagree. I have leveled my Ranger to 80 a while ago and although I still play him I have found Elementalist to be very engaging and when played correctly very active and sturdy, like a ranger.

Other than that I would say try Necro. A lot of what I like about Ranger is having the pet around (I find that an extra body is great in pve). Eles have pets based on attunement and Necro clearly has plenty of extra bodies (their playstyle is not as active though). Good Luck.

I can’t stand playing as an Elementalist. Beyond the one FotM build there is almost zero variation for PvP. For PvE it’s just boring (in my opinion). I could just never get into it.

I play an unorthodox Necro that uses dagger/warhorn and it’s really, really fun. Not as fun as my Ranger, but a close second for PvP. In PvE I just don’t really find Necro to be very engaging.

[Edit: For the record, I don’t really enjoy the rotational play style, so any profession that has builds that focus on executing the right skills in the right order to maximize your effectiveness are less appealing to me. I like a more fluid play style where you don’t have to perform every single ability at the exact right moment in the exact right order. If it can be done with a macro, I don’t really see the point. I like more fluid game play where you have to choose which ability to use depending on the situation.]

Thats the thing right there, I need a class that does not use a rotation every fight. I need something that does something different depending in what is going on, much like my dual bow Ranger does.

I should have also mentioned I prefer 2-handed weapons as well like bows and greatswords and hammers and the like.

Viable to level alts in WvW?

My main is my Ranger which hit 80 days ago, and I would like to use her as my sort of world explorer, so anyway my question is, is it viable to lvl an alt in WvW only instead of doing the maps all over again?

It’s not like WoW where some class <Hunter?> is running around with a GS they stole lol, our GS is very viable and if we chose to use one I fail to see anyone becoming upset over it…

Stealth is just stupid right now with no counter, anyone that denies it has never seen it in action, or uses it and wants to stay god like.

Consider the insane damage that class can pull of as well, even if that is a different build. it’s still in need of a counter.

For those of you who love PvP and somehow Don’t know what this is, would this or something like it not be an awesome addition to Guild Wars 2 down the road? It would give more reason to be WvWvW.

Some Worlds Won’t have access to it very much depending on how It’s implemented though so that could be an issue, one that can be worked around I’m sure with a little thought.

GW2 Endgame - Level 80 Now What?

PearlGore.7419

WvWvW, and SPvP/TPvP alone is far more fun and exciting then any lame dungeon or raid could ever be, and they are the “Endgame”.

So if you Don’t like these things go play WoW Tera or Aion. The rest of us came here to replace DAoC and Guild Wars, and GW2 has succeded in this for most of us.

Again everyone else can feel free to leave, there are other games you know.

New player feeling so... useless in WvWvW

in Ranger

Posted by: PearlGore.7419

PearlGore.7419

I said I could handle it, am I going to eat my words? I have reached 60 and I feel so useless in WvWvW. I Can’t even hit a guard standing on a wall from almost any angle or spot! Everything gets obscructed or the target is invicible.

Now as far as damage I am only 60 so I Don’t know how I will do at 80 with exotics but so far my best hit has been like 1000, I mostly do 120 or so damage.

So the question is, do i eat my words and try out a Guardian or something instead? I Don’t think I can handle playing a broken class for 3 years again lol!
