Guild Wars 2

Gotejjeken.1267:

I don’t think SB ‘sucks’. I think it could use a few improvement’s here or there, but I use it all the time.

For instance, the first fight against a war in this video:

https://youtu.be/QrYrCEBPkZs

Compare that with the last fight in the video (also against a war), and I find that the SB was way more effective than S/T + A/D.

in 1st video – allmost all damage comes from S+T and bird. and from sb it was about 9% of overall damage.

There are few competitive builds in SPvP. Pointholder for example.

Imho rangers are not suck. They’re just not as good as other classes in almost every way. But not in every part of the game.

We don’t think that rangers are bad. We just know if we’ll agree that rangers can do damage, then it will be nerfed for shore.

Opening strike proc from same attack that give furry so you can’t use maul from autoattac furry.,

I think Skyhammer shoot you in same time with rangers attack

In sPvP with your shortBow any Any s/t+a/d ranger will kitten you in to pieces smile to your convulsions and split on your corps after deadly dance around you.

SB is worst weapon for ranger atm.
1. It’s not giving good survivability.
2. It’s not giving good burst damage.
3. it’s not giving any team support.
4. it’s not giving any self buffs.
5. it’s not giving any good Sustain damage.
6. it’s not giving any good CC. (1sec stun 45sec CD)(tell that joke for mesmer or to “Skull cracker” warrior)
7.It’s not having good range(almost meele range distance, if you want to pierce someone)
It’s bad in ALL parts of it.

Add range 1200
Change 1st skill: Apply 3sec bleed from EVERY attack, if flanking, then apply 6sec bleed.
Decrease 5th skill CD to 25sec, then may-be people will start to use it.

Other way any other ranger weapon fits much more to its role.

Zatoichi.1049:

some say that sb needs to bleed from every angle. I believe that’s OP. with earth sigil and bleeding on crit, and pets bleeding attacks, in addition to krait rekd-tangle, we would have too strong of a hybrid bleed build.

orly? Necromancers have Bleed from 1st two attacks from scepter from any angel and 3th attack apply poison, and you know what? it’s BASE bleed duration 40% longer than rangers flanking attack, and you know what? They have trait to increase bleed duration for 20% and 1 more trait to increase all con duration for 100% !

SO NEcromancers autoattacks will apply 10sec bleed from each autoattack with no flanking strikes.
Warrior apply 10-11 sec bleed from each autoattack(no flanking)
And Ranger will apply 3sec bleed, ONLY if made flanking strike…

ShortBOw are 100% OP condition weapon!

Wooo…. sad story.

Looks like they made new mechanics for Rangers. Each time you die, you get -150 condi damage.

One more BUG.

All traps have cast time. When you start cast trap you can run and at the end of cast it place trap on same place you standing, but not HS. At the end of cast, HS placing where you started to cast it. making it really bad!

It mean nothing for pint holding or boss fights, but for WvW it’s HUGE disadvantage now.

Plz, return old mechanic!

To make all clear!

When you PLACE trap you get HEAL part!
When trap Trigger, it places Water Field, which give you regen and clean conditions.
It’s how it work and it’s how it have to work!

What does not work:
When you stand in these trap with full health and get damage, trap will not trigger water field.
When you place trap, it have to heal your pet also, but it does not.

PS! Trap don’t have to heal on trigger, it have to apply waterfield and regen on trigger.

Healing Spring trap will not activate if you put it with 100% HP and getting damage standing in it.

You have to leave trap, then enter it again, to activate it.

I think it will become “healing” class.. with 2-3seconds regeneration from each button which will make it more useless then now.

But seriously, i want that it will become AOE CC Mid range tank.
With allot of CC and surv, but middle damage.

You will chose 2 pets as a ranger and when you will become Druid, you can “Sharpshift” in to two different pets

Like cat and dog, Pig and Bird. MOA may be xD

I don’t say about Fractals, where pet die faster than any noob in party with agony resist.

Sounds like a serious l2p issue.

i’m talking about lvl 50+ fractals, where if you don’t dodge in right time, you’ll 100% die.
There are allot of phases where you have to stand in small corner and pet will never go there.. no mater how much you hit f3 it will stay in 2-5 meters from you, where it will get 10k damage in second.

Move to the corner then swap pets?

For example on last fractal where you have to run from AOE for 2 min in each phase?

Atm, there is notheing you can do with your pet in WvW blob, becouse pet die in 2-3 seconds and it can’t dodge.
There is nothing you can do with your pet against condition classes, because your pet will die in 3-5sec after swap and goes on 1min cooldown, because you can’t clean it.

Against rampage warrior, pet die from 3 auto attacks… sometimes from 2.

pet are god in duels only against enemy who can attack only one target…

I don’t say about Fractals, where pet die faster than any noob in party with agony resist.

Make pet immune to AOE damage or cut it to 10% and anly damage pet should take – only if someone targeted it and decided to kill.

Dead pet for hunter it’s like for warrior 20sec weapon swap instead of 5 sec.

3. all progress made on one toon is not shared with other toons. just like WvW

these will make no sense… you can spend 5-6times less time and open all masteries that way.
for example you need 30 points to open full mastery.
You earned 30 points and on different characters you can learn different masteries?

I hope these will never happen!

BEst way is like in sPVP or Hybrid sPvP with WvW.

For example. you can chose which mastery you want to learn(sPvP like) then earn mastery points and the you have to chose where so spend them in these mastery.

like:
You earn 20 masteries in languages and you should chose where to spend points from like 3 languages and these you can chose on different account different language.

Or Legendary. You earn points in it, but on different account you can chose for example:

Weapons
1 Meele weapons
2 Range weapons 2 Medium Armor

Armore
1 Light Armor
2 Medium Armor
3 Heavy Armor

soz accidentally clicked on samanosuke asakura.6240 build he’s using 3 sigils of energy

1st.

Imho better to use sword/torch axe/dagger so you can get access to Fire aura(to stack might on you and you’r pet) and you’ll have 1 weapon dodge on every weapon set.

2nd never use 2same sigils on 1 weapon set. they are not stack.

There are nothing more competitive in PVP and WVW than Mesmers, Eles, Mesmer, guardians and Mesmers atm.

GW2skills have updated, but have ALLOT of bugs atm.
For example – Traps cooldowns… spike trap 20sec CD? wtf?

samanosuke asakura.6240:

doesn’t take away that regen still viable if you can’t dodge burst its not the builds fault its players fault trapper btw is like mentioned very good

you can’t dodge shutter mesmer from stealth. it can do 14-18k damage in 1 sec.
So if you have less than 20k health, then there are bad news

Also trollsUrgent have 1 second cooldown and has no instant heal portion.
Healing spring has good instant healing portion, faster cast time, clean conditions, give 1 min regen and will heal you for almost 2k when you leap threw it.
After next fix it will give you stealth when you cast healing skill and SuperSpeed
But it’s only for trapper.

I know these build. Used it too, but atm all classes do so huge burst damage, that with no gear with +vit almost any zerker can do 100 to 0 until you finish to cast trolls urgent.

I talk about really cool guys, not bout green arrows.

ps! tryed after patch both regen build and trapper.

Trapper are better atm and you can keep regen on you anyway 24/7 imho

Rune of the trapper also simply doesn’t work with healing spring for some reason.

That is being fixed as we speak.

They wont fix it bro, they are too lazy for that fix. Instead they decided to fix Rune description in GW2 Wiki http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Superior_Rune_of_the_Trapper
It says “The skill Healing Spring does not trigger the rune’s effects.”

R.I.P.

You are silly :P. The wiki is not official. It states how things are currently implemented. And currently, healing spring is bugged to not work with the runes.

IT’s marked as NOTE not kitten BUG there.
And Anet are fixing only Bugs :|

Runes of Traper are not working with Healing Trap! Healing spring… It’s really big bug.

Really nice work. Nerf Trap Ground Targeting, Nerf ALL offhand Range and fields range also, Nerf Spirits. Nerf dagger. And buffed all other classes… GJ!

And why you give for Necromancers wells as passive and Ranger traps ground targeting was removed totally… even traited???

These was just an example how it have to work.

For now Hammer are useless in PVE and GS F1 are allmost totally useless in PVP and WVW.

Arena says that they want to avoid useless skills and these is the way to fix it.

I want more f1 skills than one.
For example: GS F1 – Gives fury F2 – put 5 bleed on target or Daze target for 1-2sec. F3 – something else
Hammer: F1 – Stum 5 Foes F2 – Smash the Ground and establishe Earth field for 5 sec witch will give protection each sec for 1sec for 5 ally.
F3 – for example block projectiles.

But if you use F1 F2 or F3, then all skills will go on 7-10Sec cooldown and you lose adrenaline.

So you’ll allways have to chose witch skill you have to use and use it depends on situation.

Sorry for my bad English.
