Guild Wars 2

anet so cruel :/

yea the rift spawned in an unreachable place for me too. took me many hours for the last boss too

I’m having 3 seconds ping in Mad King’s Labyrinth. Have done everything including reformatting my computer but it doesn’t help.

I think people will play less if they find the game less rewarding than before. It is already rather difficult to find people to do dungeons with compared to some other activities and you are making it less rewarding to dungeon now. Even if you do force people to play dungeons to farm for dungeon tokens to make new legendaries, there is always that smaller reward players have to put up with, and it sort of kills the joy, ya know what i’m saying

Dear Anet,

I wish to report a bug that has been ongoing for quite some time now, maybe a few weeks or a couple of months. I was just too lazy to report it. I randomly get immobile on characters across my account, so I am sure it is not a skill problem, nor a weapon problem. I can be doing anything, in a dungeon, in silverwastes and randomly get immobilized. The only way to get out of it is to use a mobility skill, i.e. warrior rush, thieft shortbow 5 skill. It’s been getting irritating as getting immobilized in front of lupicus or the legendary shogroth is really not a nice thing to do, not nice at all.

yours sincerely, from an irritated person

I bet most of you guys are the path sellers. I don’t fancy spending 3 hours in a dungeon with random lfg people who don’t know how to do Arah and this being my favourite dungeon and all. It is not necessarily an exploit and you do need some skills to pull it off right. What about the 1-hitting necrid bolts with fake red circles? Surely that demands a “fix”. Arah is like one of the last few fun things left in this game.

While nothing you said is untrue, the ANet developers I’ve spoken to on the topic all agree that pushing GL to a wall and instakilling him with reflects is unintended, undesirable, and cheesy. That cheesiness is a huge component of why the elite PvE community is so against it.

You are, of course, welcome to keep doing it. You’ll definitely not be banned for it or anything. It’s a legitimate, non-exploitative tactic. It just feels lame, and trivializes an encounter that a lot of players enjoy a great deal.

Well they are able to enjoy the encounter if they choose to kill lupi the challenging RNG way or in a coordinated way which some of us don’t have access to. I personally take a sense of satisfaction whenever I pull it off right as I don’t have constant access to people who are coordinated to bring lupi down in a length of time I can usually afford to. I think the issue here is the choice. Nobody’s stopping them from spending hours in a dungeon but please don’t stop me when I don’t want to spend too long a time in one.

SOLO Q OR RIOT SOLO Q OR RIOT
I DONT WANT TO MAKE MY BLOOD BOIL IN PVP
FOR A BETTER PVP EXPERIENCE

i like how you dissected my post history so much it creeped me out a little. i’m not running super coordinated structured pvp games so i don’t pay attention to who exactly are at the top or what not. it’s just a view from someone who plays mostly pug random games where other factors come into consideration.

btw thieves WERE the hard counters to some ele builds.

guess who won?

I main d/d ele, because why not? It is strongest class in the game right now. The fact that you can take 4 or 5 of a single class and be more likely to win then you would with a diverse comp is a major issue. I love ele but it needs a few nerfs.
1. Ring of Fire needs an icd of about .5 seconds to avoid getting 9 stacks instantly from tiny tap to the left then right again. Go through then .5 seconds later burning can be applied again.
2. Passive trait in fire burning fire should only remove condis not apply burn instant passive 3 burn stacks is not fun. This will not kill fire trait line its op as it is.
3. possibly add 2 more seconds to the icd of blinding ashes.

Discuss.

I play almost all classes now. I think cele ele wasn’t really good before the patch, getting rekt by thieves and alot of other classes. there may be a thin line between making ele a joke on the battlefields and one that is actually pretty strong, maining ele before the patch made me almost want to quit gw2

I’ve been havig some really bad lag recently. Average 800 ping, I thought it was a wvw issue but now it is happening in dungeons too. It’s been unplayable for the past almost 2 hours.

i just lagged BIG time in tier 4, not many people around me and my signal connection was great on my internet. I just logged off and my youtube streaming is fantastic. virtually unplayable!

Something has changed I don’t know what but warrior feels a little weaker in pvp now. If rampage is nerfed then I’ll say this is a class that really takes alot of skill and luck to play

not sure, rangers have always been killing me in pvp and great at roaming in wvw too.

please do something about revenant’s mobility

I managed to cast the tablet and used it the first time but it didn’t appear after I died and re-entered the battle. It shows the casting animation but the tablet doesn’t appear. The tablet utility skills appear castable even after I moved a very long distance away from where I supposedly re-casted the tablet.

Someone’s just mad his perma fear necro has a counter to it and is unable to constantly eat up some ele builds all the time.

Video is a setup to ruin ele again.

Lmaoo this kitten is more broken than brokeback

video please. it’s probably done to prove a point

d/d ele never appeared to have that good a damage to me. There were many honest posts saying how many of them could be laid to waste. I played other classes and it was quite apparent how ele needed to be improved in pvp.

I do not think the damage by an ele is anything higher than the videos I have seen other classes do. The survivability was buffed because staff ele survivability was a joke before the patch. I just see a ton of whines and no real video showing exactly what is goin on

This is a grandmaster trait that can be laid waste by so many different ways I don’t feel like saying it.

I ran a condi d/f build on my ele and I DIDN’t do those huge burn numbers on players that people think it should do. It seems that players take less damage from burns than mobs do plus the burn damage is a terribly spikey number with no consistency. It seems toughness and armour does affect burn damage somehow, so please post some videos of huge burn damage on players in a proper pvp fight where survivability and mobility have been added in before claiming burn needs nerfing.

Please don’t nerf anything, it makes the game less fun. Imagine all the hard effort you put into that piece of gear gone down the drain.

I agree it would be awful to force ANet employees to work overnight or on weekends for the beta testing. But this suggestion would be really good to avoid future disappointment. It may be as usual to their past practices but there are newcomers to the game who may not know. Maybe Anet can give some kind of extra reward to people who have portals so that those who couldn’t make the timings would not feel too disappointed? hint *gold *hint

So sad, I might as well drop my hard-earned portal onto the floor now. What about people from other time zones T,T

In PvP the Celestial varriant can beat about any other class in 1v1 and shrug of conditions as well as direct damage while dealing great damage themselves. Zerker with focus offer allmost no counterplay because all the spells are instant casts with instant procs from fire/air sigill. Even then they get all of that from their weapons and can take all the defensive utility they want.

(1v1 Isn’t even important in a Team Game, but as someone who enjoys dueling let me humour you. )
I have no idea why people keep touting this nonsense. There are a fair number of specs and classes that can outdo them 1v1.

Any warrior worth his salt should be able to destroy you. The number of Ele’s I have laid waste to on my main is unbelivably high, and literally all you need is a zerker amulet. The damage and pressure you put out if played properly is way too high for an ele to take time ramping up damage in Cele. Don’t even get me started on shoutbow which can outlast and beat this spec at it’s own game.

As for the Scepter/Focus zerk build, I went into a duel arena just yesterday and beat a few of these using a zerker amulet and RAMPAGE of all the skills. They really aren’t that hard to fight, god knows how easy a good necromancer would find it.

It is just a buzzword now.

I fully agree with you, so much so I made a warrior myself and noticed even the damage done by warriors compared to full zerk ele has so much difference! And still the devs want to nerf this class further lmao. 1v1 it would be against the odds for ele of any build to win warriors and guardians and necros and thieves and actually about 90% of the population stands a good chance against the ele. Ppl who actually win make videos about it cuz it’s so rare and so kitten funny. So much so I’m beginning to think my friends who recommended me to pick ele as my main are having me on.

Lol I just saw the video on the traits nerfs, and when I read your title, I thought broken meant that elementalists would be a useless class after the patch. Basically, there has been nerfs to the damage which I found very lacklustre in the first place when you compare to other classes. It seems to me that the devs want the elementalist to be all glass and no cannon. I know there are traits that improve the survivability but in the first place, the elementalist wears light armour and it does not have the toughness of heavy armoured classes like the warrior or guardian. In fact, it doesn’t even have the damage of such classes. Speccing into toughness makes it deal virtually no damage. The devs need to know what they want the ele to play as.

Hello, I’m looking for a Singapore based guild for casuals to run dungeons and do guild missions with. I am working and will be online mostly in the evenings. Looking forward to meeting friendly folks!
