At night round ten eastern time
Warrior
761 team 81 solo, but i soloed thoughs teamgames mostly to, warrior all day not meta build, but i have fun
if i am not in wvwvw or pve, iam in server101 or tourny hit me up
so, we all have to get condi clears stunbreaks AND stability just because of warrior? and you think that is fine? lol
lol, i got condi cleanse because of necros, i got stability because of necros, i have both now all the time ,because it is basically a “combo breaker” if you understand
every class in this game can pin, stun, or knockdown. every class in this game has the counter. If your against a build that has an excess of cc, then they are lacking elsewhere. I have an extremely hard time with messmers, and necros. Insted of meeting them head on, i remember that tactics, and landing a good first blow can win a fight.
YO what up kirito….lol, You sir did the world of pvp a great service, and i to have found myself doing the same, it is important for all players to take the initiative, and HELP OUT OTHER PLAYERS!!!!! It is time consuming, can be frustrating, but you can make a new friend, and have some lols in the process. I lost like 200 tournament games before i even knew there was a leader board, lol. I am reminded of the first time i played modern warfare multiplayer. I was shooting at people, but they would kill me first every time. I asked my brother(who was on the ground laughing at my ability to die so quickly) what was the deal. His statement to this day is still quite profound…“aim down your sights”. Many players forget that this game is heavy on the action, and what flys in pve, will get you killed in pvp. Quite simply at some point the fundamentals(calling targets, not fighting in losing situations, and knowing when and where to dodge) have to be learned. I learned (after being the victim of) that people put c4 on objectives in Battlefield 3. I have 15 seconds of stability, because of necros, and cc warriors. I think people should realize that you don’t start kicking kitten just by going in, you will have to learn.
If you don’t want to get stun locked, knocked all over the place, pinned to the floor….Get stun breaks, stability, and something that breaks immobilize. If your complaining bout getting double teamed by cc warriors, ask yourself… why would you try to fight two people at once anyway.
Thought I would make a thread for Ideas on what new players should know.
I play warrior long bow/great sword 0/20/20/10/20
having a balance of defensive and offensive traits/skills is important
I always bring stability, and at least 2 condi cleanses.
2 decent pin downs, and a knock down
Having a good size aoe is good for thieves, and controlling where they can linger in stealth
If your toon is not a tank, you need to learn to effectively disengage
on great sword the whirlwind skill followed by the rush(away from the enemy/make sure you don’t have a target selected) will put you well out of most attack ranges
many skills/traits have abilities that are not readily noticed, leg specialist with great sword blade trail is great for a brief stop on an enemy, Healing surge is instant full adrenal bar, use it before a fight to get a fire combo field with long bow. USE THE COMBO FIELDS AND FINISHERS!!!!!! This is key, I can max out might with combustive shot, arcing arrow, and bulls charge(the enemy attacking me with flame shield takes me to 25 pretty quick). Some condis are there just to make the others hard to clean, vulnerability on my build is there for that, since all i can do is burn or bleed. Whirlwind is also an extra dodge, Sigil of energy on the long bow keeps a dodge available.
I am hopeful, I am only rated 90%, but i worked hard to get there. I believe this change will be good, and loss of ranking may simply be the cost that must be payed by all.
no no no, your all wrong. Players should be able to rally off of pets, minions, turrents, clones, and adds in general…. JK. I thnk the rally buff for a kill is an interesting concept though, perhaps with a 10 or 15 sec use window.
Enjoy the game, some stuff is quirky, or not quite right. The game for the most part is epic, and down right crazy fun. I am truly pleased with the 60 bucks I spent, and hope that more folks buy this game. Just get in there and play. Give good feed back, and revel in the GREATEST MMO OF ALL TIME!
WvWvW rocks! had a great time last night enjoying zerg, roaming, and epic warfare! Keep up the great work anet. Keep up the great work, all yall sbi peoples! Kaining (the server my bro is on) shall be punished lol.
I love this game, and I think there should be a forum category where people can praise the devs. Only positive statements should be allowed there. The idea is to give the devs somewhere to read praise and thanks. A thank you forum, when ever a dev feels kinda down, they can go there, and read how they have done such a great job.
I truely do enjoy the new content, the new skins are nice. The achievements are tough but possible. I cant see how anyone who paid money for this game can complain. Its kinda like four games in one to me. WvW, PvP, PvE, and of course silly role playing with random people. The new map is like a jumping puzzle, but not tricky like the actual JPs. The UI for the achievements is great. The new PvP map is awesome fun. Whats not to like? Anet is moving forward with a great game that is growing better and better. This is not a finished product, it is a work in progress. I am excited to see how great they can make this game.
I think this update is awesome, GREAT JOB! There are some minor bugs, but its great fun. Please post and let the Devs know how great a job their doing. I am excited to see what they add next.
- Still no source of condi removal. ( Removing condi’s through burst skills is not what I call a viable option. Especially if you have to spend 20 points into defense which is basicly the worst kittening tree ever for warrior. )
- No kind of sustain what so ever.
- Only a handfull of builds we can go since we are forced to use berseker amulet
- Barely any usefull utilities. Since we got stability/stunbreaker skills left and right on every class it’s nearly impossible to land a bulls charge now. Not to forget the frenzy nerf that happend in the past which is basicly just saying to your enemy, “I’m taking an extra 25% dmg for the next 6 seconds so all you have to do is kite me a bit and I’m a free kill !”
- We are a melee class yet we can’t even hold our ground for more then 5 seconds when we are in the middle of the battle cause we just melt instantly.
Why is it that a melee class that is forced to engage into combo to hit any of his skills has no source of condi removal or sustain ?
Either make the warrior his skills hit targets easier or do something els. As how things are right now the class is unplayable.
I have played warrior since my first log. Warrir has condi removal with lysa runes/sigal(cant remeber). The troble i run into is the slow activation time of key abilities I get beat when i go for interupts, or pop my elite
Items that can not be salvaged should say so in their description. It is known that soul/account bound items can not be sold, but I did not know that karma items could not be salvaged. Perhaps I missed a help message some where.
lol, that would have been nice to know before i spent 300,000 karma on armor lol. i tossed them in the mystic forge though and got an exotic for salvaged that and got three ectos.
Balance is important. Iam reminded of fighting games where some characters just work better for tourney games. Maybe the warrior will never be up to an acceptable level for tpvp. I use a warrior there, and i have fun. I dont think I could play competitively though with a warrior, but thats just me. the fact that there are so many moving parts when it comes to builds makes balancing very difficult. have some patience and enjoy playing, thats how I get monies worth.
I play Warrior in PvP, and I like the new abilities. The new trait works very well, and since I don’t use the Greatsword burst. I’m ready to make them conditions go away. The added speed with melee has put me back in WvW, and I can decap/recap till my hearts content in PvP. So many people are complaining on the forums about how Warriors are not viable, but they are. They have a ton of build options. I don’t play with the other professions, so maybe I am ignorant to what they offer. I happen to love my Warrior, and like playing him even if I get beat up by rangers with never ending pets. lol
I like the new additions to warrior build. the cleanes works great and is very usfull, his increased speed with melee makes him able to cover maps and wvw with the greatest of ease. I havent tried him in tourny but he feels better when i did hot join, but yeah, the gs burst is not paticularly usefull. next time i play ill try to use it more, perhaps iam overlooking a great ability.
ok, thx that helps, I need more rares. I didnt realize how often i salvaged rares, and exotics. lol i probably salvaged a precurser with out even looking.
I have not seen an ecto in a long time and iam wondering are they not available from salvaging anymore? I salvage everything, with master salvage kit, and i used to get them all the time, but since southsun no more. Perhaps Iam not salvaging the right things, are they only available from exotics, I never paid attention to wt i was salvaging, i just did it cause ive got the wepeons and armor i like allready. anywho let me know if ectos are only from exotics.
