Guild Wars 2

Sweet, thank you

Well Mesmers share the same hate that MM got/ still gets because both rely on braindead AI to win. Who likes to be taken out by the system?

Anyway they rly seem to be hitting harder. Would br awesome if someone got any sorta concrete numbers.

So what class do you play? dont say Mesmer.

Awesome gameplay!!

Noob question: How do you aim behind you while running away?

Well guess most condi players didnt exactly ask for balthasar or nightmare runes. These kinda need fixing.

On the other hand for example the Engi has got viable Turrets build now, thats something.

Play Meditation Guardian Zerker or Diamond Skin Ele or Power Necro or Minion Master or HGH or idk xD
Im not familiar with all the classes but of the ones i have played they all have got a build or two that destroy condi setups.
Sure they are strong but not invincible.

Furienify.5738:

In either format, a condi necro will beat the Mesmer in most instances. Power necros tend to be evenly matched. This single skill exploits a weakness in a single build of a single profession; such is life. I’m honestly surprised you’re complaining about minions and not how they can strip things like Plague or Lich Form with the same skill.

Well i think stripping lich or plague is pretty balanced. Elite vs Elite. Mesmers just got the counter skill.

However in the MM case it just beats everything! All his utility, His elite, All his traits and setup.

Anyone got a link to that statement?

Wait for the cooldown. Get interrupted, if you arent already dead when cd is back on. Its not like they can be insta casted like mesmer clones. Honestly its extremely bad that they counter the entire class with 1 friggin skill.
And its not like Mesmers rly get counterd by anything. Betcha you win most of your 1v1’s against necros as well even though you dont steamroll them.

Anyone else noticed this? Like in the last 2 hours i got about 20 different ppl whispering me such offers. No matter how manny you report new ones rise. Its like a zombie slaughter fest xD

This skill is just as braindead as the condibunkers it counters. Nerf both.

…..NOT

Having fun

Not so much

Doesnt anyone else think its kitten kitten that they can kill the minion master with just 1 skill?

butch.8136:

Pvp should not be seen as a farm, please. Then you get people afking teamqueue ’cus the loss reward is decent enough.

Put legendaries, pvp armor sets and anything pvp exclusive behind a skill and time-gate.

Time-gate: Your playtime in leagues (when they arrive) will always be rewarded. You’re trying to be competitive and thus should be rewarded.

Skill-gate: Different leagues unlock different exclusive pvp stuff (= not tradable, not farmable in hotjoin, etc.). Increase the difference between loss-reward and win-reward so that people winning are rewarded and there’s an incentive to do so.

For the top players —> specific titles, finishers?, $$$$$, etc.

Anyway, we could use a reward CDI to discuss this.

YESYESYES
That would be true horizontal progression for pvp!!

well they get about 15 matches in hotjoins before going into Arena mode. Often thats just not enough.

Has this issue allways existed? Any statement from Anet? Will this ever get fixed?

There are 2 reasons for the toxic bahaviour.

One is the the Softcap for hotjoin rewards. All those PVe players are only joining the Arena because they dont get anymore rewards in hotjoins. I originally liked the idea but the way it turns out it has ruined the entire of SPVP.

Second is because of the matchmaking. They pair up pvp lvl’s randomly as far as i can tell. Obviously all the pvp lvl 60 players are gonna be kittened at the lvl 6 guy. And its not even his fault nor theirs. They loose the match and get annoyed he looses the match and get frustrated.

Now one of these things wouldnt result in such extreme toxic behaviour that we have now. Its just both of them together that provide the results we are seeing now. Not to mention it ruins all the fun of the arena

I think one of the worst thing about minions is that when the mesmer uses his transformation skill to turn you into a Moa, they all just die. I mean that is like a 1 skill class destruction. Shouldnt work like that IMO. If they turned into Moas as well that would be kinda funny.

For Minion Master here is what im using at the moment.

Rly rocks

Also you might look up the right Condition and Power Necro Builds. What Blackmoa posted are more hipster builds than anything else. I reccomend you try the standard builds and start experimenting when you are familliar with them and pvp in general.

You will find the standard builds on the forum without much effort.

Where do you guys find all the new runes and stuff?

So there are only 8 of them known already, if im not missing stuff. Might as well wait’n see whats still in store for us. I for one am looking forward to some new options.

Funy enough i have never had any problems damaging Ele’s with my Condition ingi. I berely even realize that they only get conditions after 90% hp. However my condi warrior bites out his teeth trying to get one down.
