Guild Wars 2

I don’t know why this isn’t alrdy ingame… Even wow got this-__- if something is good, steal it!(red. Idea)

Since it is a hack I guess that is what they gonna try removing;)

Nice idea:) had the same prob on my elementalist

Hehe waste of nerf imo xD ohh sure you could get 12 sec stealth.. But woaw:b you need to take falling dmg xD

Aye thx for a great game that I can enjoy in my few hours of spare time:D for once I am not let down:) great job! No matter how much trash you get from the forum, remember you still got some players that are very satified and therefore might forget to tell you that:)

@Knyx I think it would be stupid of them to remove the root.. Ppl alrdy crying about it now sooo:/

I vote for block!! It would be awesome:) another timing ability and with a cool assassin touch^^ maybe you should repost it in suggestion:) don’t think the devs looks at the prof forum unless it is for bugs or fowl language like kittens and kitten:0

My version : PW or HS spam all the way!
No just kitten kitten:b
I can’t see the link, might be broken.
You might add some text which refere yo your build and tactics,.
Then ppl can decide to either read or watch the vid:)

Ehh did someone say that thieves have very little escape power? I call troll on this one xD
They got the most escape power (abilities) of all prof imho:b I think guardians got the least.
Dual pistol are awesome, but daggers gives huge amount of dmg. I think that Dervy is right, thiefmis not you profession, you might have to reroll.. Nothing wrong with the profession or you..
But the profession can’t adapt to your playstyle and you apparently can’t adapt to the professions playstyle, so might as well try the other professions:)

A little trick is to make a lvl 1 and head to the mist.. It gives you a feeling on how the class plays end game:)

On-topic short bow can save your life, blinding powder, shadow refuge and/or pistol off-hand for blind:) and getting vitality and toughness on your gear is a blessing^^
15 i acrobatic also helps a lot, and with 10 in trickery you can really kite those Kittens!

Ehh it is the thief forum.. Ofc they defend their class..
HS miss a lot these days.. Spaming it will cost survivability.. Other classes can change attunement, tool kit or weapons to håget a set new abilities with fresh cooldowns.. Thives have to sit ducks while waiting for initiative.
It is honestly not broken, you just need to adapt it…

I think many players want the game, along the archtypes, to adapt to them, which is a bit sad…

I want to comment as well:D.. I think the reason tha 100 blades doesn’t need a stun is that warriors are often more resilient than thief..
:D and yeah thives can be a no brainer to play.. But tbh so can every class (red. Profession), but when you figure out how to play them they are amazing^^ love the idea of managing my CD (red. Initiative points). If I just spam HS, PW etc then I am very dependen on utilization skills with long CD, and a good player would finish me like nothing.
And we have to remember that pvp is a teamedbased and the thief can take 1-2 good players out, but need support for the team to finish the job:)

And a side note- what did you expect? Ofc fanbois or girls gonna disagree, ofc you will find noobs and QQ’ers.. This is the forums of a game after all^^

i use way too much time here:0

Hehe if not a QQ’er or noob, you are a fanboi.. :/
But I might be a fanboi, but I find the game funny.. Guilty, not explored stuff 100% or reached lvl 80 yet… I take my time to get there.. And I think this game might have been build around casual players like me:) the stuff of legend and dungeons for more hardcore players, sPvP for players who likes a fair pvp-battle (to those who cries about warriors or thieves, go reroll-__-) and WvW to dedicated guilds:)

I was once told, if something is boring you are not looking e right place.. i find it to be true.. Sure you might get banned:D but you can always find a way to make the game funnier without it has to be official implamented:)
Though that might be others things ere are funnier.. Then go do those things for the love of gods xD work-out, party (not encouraging drinking here), run with your friends, read a book, draw something (not the app.. Or maybe), drool on facebook.. Anything:)

Cause I don’t think your problem is wether or not the is grinding, but you just not seeing the fun aspect in the game:/ So you might go back to wow (thibk it is just another side of the coin imo) or do something else:D

On behalf of Chine: shoo!

Able to join as a party for sPvP without being split up

They should just give you what you were denied and then everybody wins:)

I approve this:D with such a living world why not:)

You ca always buy gems:) and get lion keys, buff, pet etc

It is just your honest opinion.. So that’s fair:) I find it good enough, but only focus on one, since two would req. Too many of the same mats:)
I just go around and lvl, and then when my bag is full I go to LA to sell and craft:) I think it works well and enjoy it:D and if not for the stats en the look:)

I don’t buy gems with USD;b but well dunno about the “original” thingy, his point is that make it with gems, and you will be able to buy it with in-game currency as well I support that idea, since you get approx 88 gems per g:) (might be wrong, it is something about a graph..)

Is makes me wish for vanilla wow…

Not the game itself.. It was tbh kitten.
But the attitude was great:D You gathered 40 ppl, your guildies (no pugs, but sometimes ppl from your friend guild), and then started to lose money.
Both irl and in-game:D
We were not the best guild, and wiped a lot… We bought potions and read strategies, and planned our every move.
If we just got the boss down 1%-5% we could call it a night and actually be happy!? What no loot and wasted a lot of time and gold on repair, plus on potions.. But that’s how it worked back then.

Then when we downed the boss not everyone could get gear.. If you were lucky you might have the boss drop someting usefull, or just pala gear-__-’
Then came the bidding… Now days ppl would just buy it out.. Back then ppl also look at themselves then the others.. Hmm at guy could improve our progress more if he got it, so I pass… Common attitude in our guild, sure you might discusss wether or not he had another agenda, like hoping for a weapon from the next boss.

Now days ppl actually rage-quit if they don’t get loot… Or complain about not being able to take down a boss in first try. It has become choirs for them more than just social fun and trying to coordinate a group:/

And if you searched for end game, and do not like exploration, not like to get lost in a vivid sotry and world and hate pvp… Then maybe, just maybe, you should have researched some more about GW2 before hyping and buying it, just to make yourself disappointed.
Another thing.. Expect bugs and patches.. Expect bans if you cheating.. Where is the surprise here? Expect a long queue for support since it is a mmo, you are not the only one with the problem.

And again no sub-fee, feel free to stop playing if it makes you mis. And please do not drag other ppl down with your gloomy attitude:)

Kind regards

No Cooldown on Infiltrators Step..

Heh nice comeback:D

Thieves are doing good in pve at all levels. If you are getting hit too much try using some defensive traits and/or slot skills. And be mobile.

/sigh “Be mobile” is just a different wording for “endless kitefest where you’re always one step away from downed”. Thieves aren’t doing good in PvE except maybe those who already have exceptionally good gear. Ironically they don’t need to do much PvE anymore.

The way of the thief;) else go guardian:D

Well I manage to take down guardians and warriors as well… Well maybe it is silly, but a guildy of mine is a mesmer and claims that thieves are the only prof he can’t take down and that they are too easy to play.
So tried to prove him wrong, but ended with some good game… That being said we might just have had a good team, cause we turned the tide several times and actually ressed each other:)

Okay I tried to give d/d thief a chance with scorp wire and two signets… Well traits a bit random. Just for fun.
Well they need to be balanced.. Maybe not nerfed. But I am a totally nub in pvp and even though I pwned the other players:/ I used a mix of all my first 5 ability and used HS as gapcloser and finisher.

I find that elementalist might be too weak compared to other prof in general.
I love thieves and just wanted to see if the op rumours in sPvP we true.. And they are:(
Buut maybe that is compesation for not feeling too usefull in pve and wvw (shadow refuge, scorp wire and cluster bombs are what I am therefore.. To res ppl, drag enemies close and bombard the walls).

But maybe the players I was up against just didn’t know to dodge, but do other thief with d/d feel like we got the upperhand?

Kind regardes

Btw I had sb as second weapon so I could flee like a coward if the zerged me:/ not feeling too heroic.

Twaddle was just that they were positive around the game. I know yoggcast plays bad.. Trust me when I saw them in the beta I got frustrated about the things they missed;b

I was amazed by Divinity’s reach:D ultra settings<3

Ohh same with unloade and skills that just blast multiple projectiles in one move.:) cool to do for show off though:)

Well it is because the philosophy of being able to uce abilities and burn cd without a target.
You can though redirect it and change it to a new target in LotA:)
So not a bug, and wont be fixed, and tbh I am fine with it:b

Calsifer.6079:

@Premixed Firstly, it’s something a lot of people a accustomed to especially with a Thief type class as mobility is the key. Being able to get skills of quickly is a great advantage that the Thief has. And secondly, I’m the consumer, it might sound self-entitled but it’s true. I’m the consumer and I purchased not only a game, but a promised service as well. I shouldn’t have to alter my play style simply because they don’t want to change something that can easily be rectified in a small patch.

Well I see your point.. But I think it is easier to adapt, than make them create a game for everyones need, though it would have been nice:)
But an on and off function would be nice:)
Maybe even a priority order:) like with dodge.

I think so. But scorpion wire and shadow refuge are very good imho, so dunno if I want to miss out those two:)

Haha okay I thought I was the only one xD feels like waste of initiative points
But good to know, might get hotfixed soon:)

Or I didn’t see the “,” .. Faceplam.. Srry mate:D multitasking innovative projects and doing forums is generally a fail:D but keeps me going.

What that an offend killthehealsffs:0?
Are you lesser intellinget for liking stuff? I don’t get it tbh:) I think my intelligence is average at least:)
But if it is because I disagree then you are right, just maybe pointed on the wrong person:D
But I see that there is not much discussion, so sorry for that:) just felt like ppl keep spamming the forum about how bad this game is^^ tbh just quit then:D

If you nerf thieves, pls nerf deathshroud;b… But honestly don’t believe that warriors or thieves are that bad.. Also remember it is a party play not 1v1.. And if thieves can’t kill someone 1v1, thenkitten.
Also engineers can be pretty annoying and durable with the right spec…
I think the balanced it okay imo:) but then again I most say elementalist feel less lackluct and weak, so maybe just buff them a bit.
Or instead of staff ranged and dagger close, give thme traits or something to decide how they want to play or buff them in melee (more toughness and vitality and faster endurance) so the becomes spellslinging thives:D

But yeah as most ppl stated I don’t find any prof op.. Just some annoying skilled ppl playing guardians and necroes xD

Tried every prof… But iniative just got me.. The way you manage your abilities “CD” is sooo nice:D can’t go back to CD xD

The hat from the vendor in WvW for badges.. At skin.. Can you Get the look by other means?

Really? For I could see myself roaming around just to enjoy the world.. To be fair I tried that aswell in wow, but guess this would be nice because of all the small details.. Then again I am casual.. I don’t rush through stuff.. Or need big rewards xD gimme cool looking gear and a living world like this:)

And never liked end-game.. Liked pvp, and here you can do that instantly:D
But yeah hard to pls everyone.. But at least you do not pay sub-fee every month\o/
Also think many ppl, incl. Me, are set on the everquest/wow mindset… So just have to calibrate to this new kinda thing:)

WoW, CoH/CoV, GW, runescape, Eve, Rift, Aion beta only, DCUO, Champions, lot of those free asian games including mapple and perfect world (which wasn’t that perfect), a fps mmo forgot the name and probably more:D

The dragon spend most of his gold on repair cost;b
For me the reward is killing.. Not the items and loot in general:D think that is why I acyually love WvW where other ppl feels it is not rewarding enough:D we became a spoiled gamer community xD

Like my work it is rewarding helping ppl, the salery is just a bonus:D

I was watching the review of gw2 from angryjoe (won’t link, just search on youtube) and a yoggscast playthrough.
Then it hit me, this forum or n general has turned into a lot of crying and complains. There are a few lights in the dark.
And well I understand since this is our was to communicate with the team and bring suggestions.

But man.. Am I amazed by this game, true got some bugs, but look at the lvl of details, a prob with more to come… From pictures on the walls, to kids playing around..
And if you hate pve, then you can join a wonderfull chaos in WvW! Seige castles, conquer camps and make jump puzzle..(though some bashers tries to ruin the fun).

If that is too big a mess and you find it kinda boring just zerging, like my friend, then you can join a more structed chaos in sPvP:D it is great fun;) though Anet give us partyjoin in sPvP, I can’t stress the function enough.. Cause it is essenciel:)

But you really made a well made game, with a beautiful and living world, and only asking for retail price.. You can achieve anything without using rl money.. Any thing!
But this actually wants me to use rl money.. It encourage me to give a contribute (though I have no idea what to spend the gems on).

So on final conclussion.. Yeah there are the typical babybugs.. But woaw what a well done game.. I don’t feel oblicated to play.( except daily achiv and monthly.. Andkitten100k xp without dying is just not my style, and I even play guard and thief most durable prof imo)

Kind regards a satified gamer:D

In sPvP you feel pretty OP and epic when you manage to take down the other team easily:D Also if you outmaneuver 2-3 players and killing one in the process:)

This is my thief overlooking the edge of our keep. Just wish I had a hat instead:)

When you summon someone it is sad to see that when the duration ends, it drops dead:0
I understand the elemental.. Like earth elemental crumbles, water elementals turns into a puddle, fire elemental crumble apart while crating a bit of smoke etc.

But what if:
Thief guild: summon animation with two small smoke bombs hits the ground and two thieves leaps out, when it ends… Ninja! They throw a smoke bomb for their feets and pufff.. Gone

Balzthars hell hounds (can’t spell): two portals resemble rings of fire (johnny cash\o/) appears, or just on big, and two big hound leaps out, or tumbles out.. When it end they are dragged back like a vaccum cleaner ring of fire.. Or just jump back.

Charr legion: two large mortar explosions and from the fire and smoke rolls two kitties:D when it ends one of the demolishion both of them. And gone.

Well would just give it a little touch.. So same goes for norns summoning and sylvani… Give them a bit of flavour and love;)

So far as I know the (8x) means that you hit eight times for 1k + dmg… Or am I totally wrong?

Hounds are soo cool looking! Easpecially if ya are a warrior or fire attuned elementalist:D

Not waste.. Yeah consumed.. You transfere it to one armour set.. Then again from that amour set to another, and so on and so on:) so unless you seel or salvage it you got it forever.

I agree, but again a suggestion forum should be made. Cuse this is players helping players

There will always be ppl not satified with their profession. I didn’t like elementalist and went thief.. But hey with such unique (maybe) profs there is nearly always a prof for you.. More and less permanent

A thing I did traser is starting a prof, enter the msit, and see how it is at high lvl.
But I well want to be the, all so I change a lot.
Else You should post it as bug.. Or suggest Anet ansuggestiong or improvement forum, for this is players helping players:) and can’t help you with bugs.
But try to spec into tool kits, it grants you nearly unlimited swiftnes, andnhigh burst:) the wreck is good in melee but overseen:D

Or else try another prof, know you used some time in your engineer, but you can always fall back.. I jump between my thief and guardian, and other guildies do the same between 2-3 profession to gain some fresh gameplay from time to time. And all of them are impressed by the engineeres flexibility (looking for another word, but can’t find it;b). Like a elementalist just with big bombs and napalm!,:D

Ride of lightning is awesome:D but yeah miss a bit of range, since you can’t weapon swap:D
