5 gambits

in Guardian

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

Most annoying this is that gambits burn tickets SO FAST. I tried a similar tactic as Shardun, but I always fail at 1/3 of Dunwell’s hp :/ renewed focus on cd, heal on cd. + sometimes I get full sniper shot dmg even if I use Judge’s Intervention and get to him.

I just can’t beat them. Even with SYG – when it goes on cooldown I get cc-ed and can’t do kitten.

WvW advice needed

in Guardian

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

Hey guys,

Since there is no sticky about WvW build and going through topics doesn’t seem to help me/answer my questions:

My stats are as follows:


Greatsword——————————Scepter/Sword + Focus
Attack__________2,85k—————————2,75k
Crit chance______50%——————————50%
Armor__________3,2k——————————3k
Health__________17k——————————15k
Crit dmg________50%——————————60%
Traits – 0/15/30/20/5

Anyhow, I’d like to make a burst build for WvW ( solo/small groups ) with GS and sword/focus with judge’s intervention.

Do you think those stats are enough or maybe I should change something? What traits would you recommend?
I thought about taking some points from valor and maybe get 10 in zeal for Fiery Wrath but -100 vitality would hurt 2 much at this point(?).

Tried some soloing and in general I think I’ve won more than 70% of my duels however yesterday after a quite long fight with warrior I died – and that kinda made me aggro lol.

Any help is appreciated

Guardian; PVT or Zerker?

in Guardian

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

Good for everything – PVT armor and zerker trinkets.

However, I use a mix of PPrecisionT/zerker armor and trinkets + PVT on GS/hammer as my main set.

Atm trying some new gear setups but this ^ works very good in WvW, fractals, Dungeos and general PvE.

/ btw kicking guardian for not going zerker in fractals is dumb and foolish. 12 k hp guardian has to be godlike to not die every second.

Fractal choice is irrelevant

in Cutthroat Politics

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

I actully enjoy doing fractals ( I agree on dredge on however ).

The thing is:
- We have no idea how will the look. Imagine an abaddon fractal that’s even more annoying than dredge? Same goes for traumanova one.
- Story telling in fractals is indeed nothing special ( if there even is any story telling ).

And either way – I win, since I’ll be happy with both of them.

I’m seriously sick of people telling others “the truth” about this and that. Stop making these pointless threads.

/ anyhow, I’ll split my votes 50/50

Candidate Trials T4

in Cutthroat Politics

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

Mobs spawn at specific points in time, so does the right side plunderer. If you go back right after killing a plunderer they walk to the middle . You probably didn’t see them spawning.

I did not observe any RNG here. But maybe there is some as GW2 is RNG all the way. But I think it’s more like a defect. On one run (think was Kiel T2) I had a plunderer stuck and he never returned to the spawn point.

If you stand on a rock you can see both spawn spots. And trust me when I tell you this – they spawned ONLY from left side. It might be random due to a bug, but it’s still random. Same for veterans – on one run they are over me and there are also runs when I fall asleep.

You are kidding me, right? If something like that happens to me I either kill them or leave and join another game. Reporting people for killing you over and over while it is legal to kill you ( over and over ) is just lame. This game is about killing, not about being nice to eachother. Personally I don;t hunt people when they kill me but I see no reason to blame them for hunting me. It’s what they CAN do.

As I posted in another topic that I created – good idea is to put 1 guy near west spawn, and 2 next to east one. For 5-men teams I think 2-3 is the way to go. We managed to kill them on the spot ( west side ) or on their way back ( east side ).

As for the " x plunderers spawn from here and there " on our 2nd run ALL plunderers spawned from east side. So it’s either bugged or random.

Hello,

I managed to solo all tiers with my guardian, however we ( guild ) wanted to try doing it in team. This is how we did it:

zerker Guardian, Engineer, Thief – get as much cc as you can and long range weapons.
split into 2 teams – 1 guy ( engi in our case ) on the left, taking care ONLY of the plunderer on the left. Guardian and Thief on the right – taking care of the right plunderer.

We were 2 on the right side because you basically need to kill the plunderer on the spot if you don’t want to aggro anything and waste time running back and forth…

Often a Veteran spawns close and he is aggroing 100% of the time. We just ignored him ( heal/dodge etc. )

That way we didn’t even have to lose aggro, we were just standing there and killing them ( plunderers ) on the spot.

/ I’m not saying that that guard/thief/engi was the only good/best team setup, just wanted to mention what classes we used.

/ Fun fact – on our second run there was NO plunderers spawning on the right side – they came only from the left – > way to go ANET :P FIX IT

Just to let you know – Rain Man could do tier1.
Big problem is tier4, which in most cases is for solo zerker builds ( and this is exactly how I did it on my guardian; we tried doing it in team and failed )

@ Entropy " But I don’t think a gun of any kind fits with the guard aesthetic or lore. Feels way too anarchistic" I find Scapter, a raindbow-fairy weapon, to be way more anarchistic when i comes to guardian.

why do YOU play guardian ^^??

in Guardian

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

I always main mage/elementalist then paladin/monk. Since elementalist in GW2 is nothing compared to GW1 elementalist I mained guardian. I’m kinda sad that I can’t shine in all this micro-management but I find weapon choices for ele underwhelming/simply wrong. In WvW ur either ranged or melee, nothing in between. I can’t switch weapons during fight so I HAVE to be either d/d or staff and I like to have a choice. + in GW1 I could tank anything with ele, now I have to move, move, move. I like to move, but I also like to stand still for a while.

guardian is awesome tho ( only scepter seems… not so guardian-ish )

Explain what brain cells are required to avoid the random canon fire. It’s RANDOM and sometimes you CANNOT avoid it. How is that a test of skiill?

It’s not random and you can avoid it. But maybe my guardian angel is looking after me since I completed this dungeon 6 times so far – ONLY PUGS – and I didn’t die a single time from cannons.

+ how the fudge can you not avoid it? After the red circle appears you have like 1-2 seconds before you get hit…

Seriously people, what is wrong with you. Go play Sims or whatever ><

the end boss is virtually impossible with pugs, and i don’t see how new people to this game can get any of the achievements… its unfair the dungeon needs some radical changes, either give mai massive bleeds, shadowstep or a 1 hit kill move but not all 3. i spent 3 hours in a guild run on this dungeon on the end battle and we did not get it accomplished, this should not happen… the cannon firing lasts too long… please nerf the dungeon so thakittens doable with pugs or at least manageable with guild on ts…

no. I did it 6 times so far with JUST PUGS and I can’t complain.

Should I even try this dungeon?

in Sky Pirates of Tyria

Posted by: PokerTuna.6170

PokerTuna.6170

I say do it. As long as people are learning from their mistakes it takes a few tries, you don’t even need to talk. You can also read guide on dulfy.net or any other site and just explain to your team what to do. I’ve learned it the hard way – tried, tried and tried. Eventually I completed the dungeon and when I went there for the 2nd and 3rd time I asked who doesn’t know what to do and then explained it.

I know that sometimes people can make you cry – they are not actually using their brain, just tired, lagged etc. but all in all I think they are getting better – just give them time and help them.

Anyhow, I want that monocle so I think I won’t sleep enough tonight.

^ yes, why not? they delivered sets via gemstore, why wouldn’t they deliver single pieces? what’s wrong with asking for more ( or less in this case )? they would still make a profit, so what’s you problem now? As you can see I actually want them to make profit since now I won’t buy it and if they sell them also piece by piece I would. So, all in all, you should ask " why do you guys want them to make money!?" cos that’s what it is. Learn to read. I’m not saying “ugly armor wtf is that”, I’m saying “i want that, it looks cool, just let me have a piece of it instead”.
