Guild Wars 2

Whats about hambow 2.0 – guardian spec?

Ps. war just like guard already have shouts, i doubt they get more as new skills were supposed to be a new type of utility. Revenant makes no sense either as their mechanic is all about channeling legends. Ranger has shouts too. Whats about..necro?

Rezzet.3614:

people using gs wrong

even if your main weapon is gs 100b isnt your only high damage skill the bust skill is the real kicker 100b is more of an execute skill on immobilized targets

gs F1 hits for 50% more damage on targets under 50% hp and also grands fury

First you need get them down to said 50%. With what..Gs 1? Please..

As it stands now i feel gs has 4 skills, i never use hb as i dont have a ways to set it up in my build – and i reject doing so, just like i dislike war longbow so i dont use it at all (actually i dont even play war anymore due to how horrible warrior is for me in current state)

Every other weapon sets has a way to set up certain combos (just look at mes sword) or secondary effect like ranger axe 5 where you reflect projectiles except our lovely gs where you have to use offset to actually have a bit of chance to land it. I rathen take axe and spam 1, same damage and mobile while doing so.

Invictus.1503:

Why would it be OP? I’m not saying they’d let the Revenant pick from all available skills through each legend, what I’m guessing is they will have a different set of skills (6-10) that you’d be able to choose from. So you wouldn’t choose the best skills from Malyx, combined with the best from Jalis, etc.. You wouldn’t be able to choose those skills at all if I’m right.

So, if you want Malyx skills, you can’t specialize. But if you want a choose your skills, you need to Specialize. This is the mechanic change I’m thinking of here.

That makes sense. As long we cant mix best skills from legends its fine.

Sabre.8627:

Where are you getting this high uptime on resistance from? I see one skill on a 35s cd, it gives 1s resistance per condition taken, which looks like it can only be 1 per ally, plus an extra 2 seconds flat. 7 seconds max in completely perfect conditions, which wouldn’t happen in a pvp teamfight.
Epidemic on a mallyx Rev would spread all his conditions to nearby allies, giving heavy damage to all of them, the rev would use his pain absorption, giving resistance but also putting even MORE conditions on himself. Once that resistance runs out, he is going to melt within seconds. Necro can always corrupt his resistance at any time with 2 different skills on 15s and 40s cd’s, it will be interesting to see what a corrupted resistance boon will turn into.

You must be new here. First revenant utility has no cd, he uses similiar system to thief initiative on utilities. That 35 “cd” is a energy cost. Next you dont understand pain absorption description either as its not 1sec per ally but per condition

“Grant resistance to yourself and nearby allies. Absorb conditions from those allies, gaining additional resistance per condition.”

If your ally has 5 different conditions and you use pain absordion you automatically gain extra 5 seconds of resistance. Multiply 5 condi by 4 ppl and there you have 20seconds of resistance, on top of that you have a trait that grants any dmeon skill a 2sec of resistance and if im not wrong pain absord alone has 3sec. Right here were looking at 25seconds of resistance. Thats assuming it actually transfer all conditions, not 1 per person. Its a bit missleading and we have to see it live.

But even then since revenant has no cd utilities and his elite skill is a transformation he can spam it in/out for 2sec of resistance each time he uses it which will prevent him from melding up by conditions at the cost of not doing anything else. Well considering the fact that this skill also copy conditions to enemies i cant say hes doing “nothing” either.

Im talking about spvp. My rabin s/s war reached 25 bleed and without might it was ticking for about 2,5k thats where the number comes from. i dont think that rabin/carrion on revenant will be a good idea as they are capable of dealing decent direct as well (both from wep skills and legend utilities). For that reason i can see cele being meta for mallyx/X. Also rebember the trait where his damage increase by 3% for each condition on them. That will be wasted on rabin as you have 0 power. Cele/Sinister (not in pvp yet) seems to be most effective for me for “condi” reve.

Im curious about this sentence btw.
“Revenants will gain an Elite, a heal and a set of utilities of the same type”
Does it mean that one legend will get modified skills?

I’m guessing it means that the elite specialization of the revenant has access to one additional legendary compared to normal revenants since each legendary gives an elite, a heal and a set of utilities.

Yeah i thought that too but im not sure about that tbh. They dindt said new legendary, they said “of the same type”

Right now revenant has;
Legendary Dwarf
Legendary Demon
Legendary Assasin
Legendary Dragon
Legendary (?) Centaur.

Which might as well imply new legend but with existing type of “utility” My bet is on another demon.

I’ve had a theory for a while, and this keeps it alive, that the Revenant’s elite specialization will actually take the legends (as we know them) away and allow the Revenant to pick skills from a pool of them rather than tie them to a new legend. This article even went out of its way to say “most” professions will receive 4 utilities. The word “most” implies at least one exception. That exception very well could be Revenant because they will get 10 utility skills (just a random picked number there) from which to choose.

In which case it would make revenant OP as kitten (pick best possible skills and call it a day) and force every revenant to take specialization or go home. Specializations was supposed to give alternative way of playing character, not huge gameplay advantage over base class. In another thread i have already explained as why allowing revenant to mix utilities is a bad idea.

In short mallyx is a condi bunker that lacks mobility/anti cc and direct damage mechanics where jalis lacks mobility/condi resistance. Mixing abilities will remove any disadvantages from revenant based on the legend which will lead to overnerfed abilities ruining base class completely. If anything i think just like warrior, they will get another way to spend mist energy (f2).

I olny hope that we see weapon traits deleted and added as baseline as rifle peircing by default etc.

Cantrip -20% duration hasn’t been deleted. There is no reason to believe -20% weapon duration will not happen.

Who allowed you to break my dreams? Thats said i hope to see war wep skills merged and moved around for better synergy.

^Good thing that revenant can use his elite to keep up his resistance forever and there inst that many boonstrips ingame to get rid of it. I have seen people mentioning to use epidemic on him. Again thats great for revenant actually.

Revenant takes conditions from team, necro strip his boon and use epidemic, revenant takes these conditions again from team gaining high uptime resistance once more, goes into ebola form = ? = profit. If he maange to get load of conditions like 25 stacks bleeds on himself etc i can imagine already his impact on teamfights where he spreads these 25 stack bleeds for some 2,5k/s damage from bleeds alone. Its down to how well player manage to play his toon eithery way.

And who said they wont have condi removal on diff legend? Shiro might be able to transfer them with every attack he does or Ventari might spam condi removal like no tomorrow. Many possibilities.

Thats said i dont see him as unstopable machine.

Andred.1087:

Could you guys please for once stop pretending you know more about this than the kittening devs do… They’re doing an AMA tomorrow to clarify questions, for kitten’s sake!

Actually it is crystal clear that we will lose diversity in the way the OP describes, the medi guardian build will be impossible, yes builds will be adapted but there will be inherently less build diversity and less choice.

Im a bit curious how it will affect medi guard tho. Lets say they wont move/delete any guardian traits which leads to 2 possibilities;

0/6/6/0/6 – losing minor to gain vigor on crit but gaining +15 crit chance on 1h weps.

or

0/0/6/6/6 – Enjoy 300 extra vit at the cost of losing blind on justice

Also 6 in virtues allow medi guardian to pick up shielded mind for extra stunbreak/purity of body to make up a bit for the lack of vigor.

Also virtues will have lower cd’s where justice will be sitting on 20cd, resolve on 40 and courage on 60. I fail to see how exacly it break this build in this case.

Kiiten..i forgot about this part. Ty for correction. That said we still have to explore the world to unlock everything to actually experiment with many diff builds.

They are getting a bit “useless” considering the fact that while you can lv your toon up to 80 you wont have any utility skills forcing you to explore world for “hero points” as skill points will be turned to some mats (rll? i have over 7k of scroll skill points..)

Invictus.1503:

Gibson.4036:

Telling us about the system is foundational to moving on to tell us about each individual elite specialization. It’d make no sense to do it the other way around.

We’re one week closer to the point at which you find out how you can specialize your favorite character.

This exactly. I’m actually very pleased with the level of information the provided today and greatly anticipating the following weeks.

Lets olny hope that they will continue this. No more frogs plox.

So you guys prefer an illusion of choice instead a real build options? Keep in mind that a lot of current trait will be either removed/merged into exisitng skills or traits/improved.

You dont even know how medi guard traits will look like at this point.
And to be honest its a buff to a lot of builds – for exampe pewpew ranger will be capable to go 6/6/6/0/0 and gain condi removal – something they lack nowdays. Thats some serious huge buff right here. And that applies to many other builds as well.

On the other hand..hambow might make a comeback

0/6/6/0/6

Arms – X/unsu foe/furious
Def – dogger/cleansing/X
Disci – war sprint/dote/burst mastery

I olny hope that we see weapon traits deleted and added as baseline as rifle peircing by default etc.

To anyone saying stuff about build reduction and so on..how many viable builds we have right now? Thats right.. Load of useless traits, weapon skills that makes no sense whatsoever. It might break some old builds but in the end we should be able to create many new more (just look at revenant traits, from these 3 lines alone i could go and craft few builds) unless they kitten up as usual. I gladly welcome this change either way

They separate stats from traits, opening up builds by trait choice rather than stat choice.

^Been waiting for soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo kitten long.

I olny hope today blogs will provide some news informations outside of another recap/lore stuff. Exslusive frog review, frog blog, poi focused on frogs, recap of poi as “news”. Enough plz.. it didnt really needed so much attention to begin with.

Hmm personally if they wont reveal the whole revenant class i wont be buying xpac. Reason? Revenant is the olny thing i am interesed in along with some specializations due to the possibility of new weapons like hammer on engi. I am not going to buy a cat in the bag. Sry

Hidden Dragon.7523:

Lol ^^… so Scoobaniec, why don’t you show him in 1 v 1?

Why should i? It will be better for him to leave his safezone called wvw where you can meet tons of bad players on daily and join a 1v1 server like king of the hill. There he can join, do some duels, record it and come back. Ofc its obvious that anyone there will roflstomp his hambow so he wont upload any vids from that server. At this point why bother?

Prototypemind.4026:

Black Desert still shows lag here and there, but relatively little considering how huge some of the battles are. Nothing interfering with the fights, and negligible for people on top end rigs. Not to mention it’s just in its initial stages. That said, there are a lot of major issues that are going to destroy it’s potential here in the west if they aren’t fixed. It’s supposed to be an amazing, challenging sandbox MMO with open-world PVP, and at the moment it’s been turned into the most casual thing on the market, something noted by the devs as desired in Korea due to a changing player base.

That said, when new players are checking out new games just based on superficial looks, BD will destroy GW2, as will others in GW2’s current state. Add in the fact that it’s F2P, so there’ no investment to give it a go and it’s going to be a further loss for this game. I’m playing Vindictus now specifically because the action combat interested me, and that is what BD is most heavily advertising. Again, Black Desert has major, major issues at the moment in regards to the final experience delivered, but if enough fixes are made it’s going to hurt number here unless HoT/LS3 deliver massive amounts of content and something is done to increase the performance and optimization of this game.

Performance+graphical upgrades is still something they working on. But overall nobody can deny that tis laggy or a slideshow compared to GW2. Release in 2016, they have a bit of time+they looking to add dx12. As i said i dont like some features in BD but the performance and graphic on it own looks attractive and for that reason i might quit gw2 slideshow again unless they fix it. I been playing Vindictus for a year too btw (EU).

jayson.6512:

World of Warcraft has Dx11 support but GW2 does not support DX10 which is funny because WoW is like a grandfather to GW2 but instead Arenanet choose to use the DX9.

Because they are afraid most pc gamers don’t have the hardware more than DX9.

But since GW2 release i have a Card that support DX11 and i live in Asia and most GW2 players are in Europe and U.S which already has DX11.2 something.

Their excuse is that they want to cater to as many players as possible and that is the reason why we have dx9 still. Too bad its a failed logic as while someone can play this game on potato pc with lower possible settings, people with high end pc’s struggle to keep decent framerate. Not olny that but anyone serious upgraded his pc long time ago. Dx11 which many of them will support dx12 as well are cheap as kitten nowdays. Imo theres no reason to even keep dx9 mode anymore. If they keep dx9 they will be out of business sooner or later due to poorly fps.

As it stands now gw2 is one of the best mmos due to poor to competition but some new mmos like BD will steal a bit of players leaving gw2 empty in the long run. Not to mention the fact that their developent of new contest is really slow paced and xpac alone looks like a slapped icon on ls3+feature pack. I wont even mention lack of balance changes..

My only advice for you baby

Learn to printscreen. Ty for a good laugh tho, people still uses phone to make screenshots on a pc..lul Ps slick shoes cannot be dodged.

Pewpew>shoutbow outside of a capture point and in fact any warrior build for that matter.
Been there done that. Theres olny 1 build that might manage somehow to kill a good pewpew and thats a skullcrack one with his ridiculous reflect uptime on mace.

But we are not in ranger subforum so lets end this bs

MrKrataus at least played competive pvp at a high lvl in a top tier pvp team and won serveral go4s. I’m not sure if you know that but the difference between players who participate there and wvw roamers / 1v1 spvp heroes is like day and night.
He proofed many times that he’s impressive in 1on1 and 2v1 situations even against very skilled players you didn’t have faced and probably never will face.Also I’m pretty sure that he is able to handle a berserk hambow or any other forum hero, as well. But I can understand that he is not interested to waste his time.

You don’t know for fact any of the things you say about other players here. Also, seeing that you had to edit your post makes you look uncertain about things you might have posted. Don’t judge what you don’t know and you might experience more things than you could imagine.

Have a lovely evening, Mr Forum Hero I lick boots.

I disgaree with celestial being any good on a hambow, howered i doubt that Hoax would stand any chance vs Kratatus due to this vid;
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rRtOY7rkuQ

Random jumpy dodges to make it look cool
Spamming important abilities such as blind in reflect – lol gg wp
Again spamming important skills such as earthshaker under blind
Spamming stances

Playing no moblity build in wvw – my pewpew ranger would have banana on his face and gladly enjoy his freebag as i could kite that build endlessly so any other half decent player as well. If that thief was any good he would simply reset the fight and come back few sec later as right there he has a warrior that blowed up all his utilities making himself an easy to kill target. But well who still playing d/d thiefs today? So yeah im not surprised he doesnt want to waste time on 1v1, i wouldn’t either. Thats just my 2 cents. Now end this childish discussion as thats completely offtop.

And to say something about this topic, OP is spot on. If warrior dont get a specialization with decent skills they will become obsolete as mallyx revenants waiting to crush celestial classes – nearly endless boonstrip preventing any cele from might stack leading to poorly damage. On top of that high uptime poison on auto preventing getting downed people rezzed by warbanner.

Enjoy your game where everyone and their mom abuse party system by kicking out and stealing instances as they cant be punishment for such things. You can do it youself, ask 2 friends to join someone whos selling arah pX, kick him = ? = profit.

Black Desert

Oh yeah, whiile i dont like some features it has (bullkitten of grind) i have to give them that;

Their graphic and overall world is amazing, and most important thing no fps drops. Steady 60 fps no matter what
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSTZ-79dA5c

And GvG..something that gw2 lack. Even with so many people on the screen (for lazy ppl look at the last min) it still keeps perfectly 60fps with no drops whatsoever unlike gw2 where i can experience fps drops just by rotating camera..wtf..?

To sum it up, graphic is much better to the point where we cant even compare it to gw2 with so many poorly textures it has (but its okay, lets ignore that aspect).

Load of people fighting on the player screen without fps drops unlike..this game where standing in LA can drop fps to 40, some serious lag issues in wvw where skill activation takes few sec-mins.

I thought GW2 is an AAA title yet some “random korean mmo” beats the kitten out of it when its comes to performance.. They either do something to improve performance or i can see the playerbase wanting GvG, lagfree WvW and so on migrate there which will result in massive lost of players. Olny white knights will remain. Sounds like a prophecy lols. But well thats what going to happen if they continue to cater to people with potato pc on winxp ignoring people like me with high end pc.

You can..ya know..watch it on youtube or their twitch. Whats the point in releasing recap of it then? Before we used to get new info, now olny recap of recaps. In b4 recap of stronghold/wvw in 2 days..or mushroom lore.. Honestly i wont be surprised at all.

Not everyone have the ability to watch the stream and hear what they are saying, even if it is on youtube?

Does it somehow hurt you that they give those people the ability to read the information instead?

We have been given new info at least once every week the last couple of weeks. You might not be interested in the information, but that doesn’t mean it is not there.

Looking at how many people watched the poi live i doubt that people was interesed at all. You know it well from your reddit threads. If they want to write recap sure, go ahead. But dont forget to release new info as it happens over few weeks already. Futher arguing with you is pointless as i already made some “good” opinion about you, you can go figure it out. I will just ignore any of your future posts aka blocklist. Bye

And like i mentioned previously in different post i prefer to learn that stuff ingame…just like any RP player that has even a bit of self respect instead…..
Also if they put that info on blogs, a new player most likely wont have any idea about that stuff if they wont add it in game unless they use google – inst that sad? Same goes for LS1.

You can..ya know..watch it on youtube or their twitch. Whats the point in releasing recap of it then? Before we used to get new info, now olny recap of recaps. In b4 recap of stronghold/wvw in 2 days..or mushroom lore.. Honestly i wont be surprised at all.

Just checked “news”.. LS3 confirmed. Another recap..I dont even..

Cant w8 to that awesome next blog soon about “mushroom lore” or another recap.

Personally i dont want to have selectable utilities.

First – noone will be capable of forcing me to pick up certain skills as they are all locked to legends. I want to play the way i want instead of playing yet another meta noob build. Warrior is destroyed for me at this point as everyone except them to carry a banner yet i reject being a banner bot and for that reason i stopped playing him even in pve. Let him run these chestfarm. Ofc its obvious there will be a zerk legend but its a bit different situation here.

Second – i want legends to have their own theme and iconic skills. Whats the point of channeling Jalis to use shiro+glint skills? thats breaking immersion for me. And cause they are not swapable they need to make sure that all of these abilities are viable and has their uses in certain situations. Otherwise x legend will become underpowered and considered non viable. We have enough of that stuff.

Third – i would prefer swapable weapon skills instead. Thats something no other class has yet. Imagine if you could run with a weapon you prefer and adjust it to your playstyle – want hammer ranger? np. You changed mind and want use it as melee weapon? Np man. You tried playing it and decided full melee is not your style? Here man, take this skill set which is a mix of melee and ranged attacks. Enjoy.

In short revenant abilities so far seems really strong but they have their downsides due to legend limitations. If they allowed us to swap abilities then we will see alot of these abilities nerfed into ground as i can imagine already putting there perma stab, boon removal, condi removal (if they get one), aoe endure pain called rite and who knows what else. Runned out of energy? Swap, you have energy up to use these skills again. Thats how it would work. If you wanted to run themed skills tied to legends? Tough luck. You might as well delete your toon as you wont be viable with that mix-n-match.

As it stands now mallyx is a offensive condi tank that can punish anyone for applying condition to him. He can protect himself pretty well from conditions at the cost of basically 0 mobility and lack of tools to deal with cc/direct damage. Jalis is the opposite – high stab uptime, no cd stunbreak, direct damage immunity at the cost of no condi removal outside of his healing skill on 30cd. But he also lack mobility. Thats how they getting balanced – you get some strong abilities at the cost of lacking somewhere else. Cant have it all otherwise its will be broken as kitten.

Hoaxintelligence.4628:

I bring bezerker hambow in pvp matches and I destroy shoutbows so your claim about that shoutbow is the strongest is false.

Spvp is not about 1v1. Many builds can kill shoutbow in a duel, even pewpew rangers. But its teambased game and here he brings a lot more than your hambow will ever do. For that reason its the strongest war build.

You dont have to rewrite anything. Its all about renderer. And if you think its going to cost them milions then youre wrong again.

So why isn’t every game ever always using the latest renderer then? If it is as simply as you seem to believe.

Maybe bc not everyone willing to invest even a bit into that? Kind of like how it is with AN. In the thread linked above there was countless arguments throwed around as to why and what so i dont see any point to argue at this point. They could always hire few people to work on it in background. But then..we dont have even 64bit client……..why bother really?..

And if im not mistaken they already said in one of their blogs that they had troubles with wyvern fight so they had go around and create new textures otherwise fps would sux hard. Thats some decent amount of extra work right there just to make one battle boss work. Not olny they limit themself right there with dx9, but their game suffers from joke fps as well. We are not in 2002 anymore. I bet even with cannonlake i will continue to experience fps drops just by rotating with camera as it currently have place. And thats the olny game where i experience that problem.

MaXi.3642:

I understand the pros you said, but keep in mind that game development is also about money… if they are ok with money for adding new content it’s good, but maybe they aren’t as much ok for another work which would be required by implementing DX11, maybe it’s just too expensive compared to their income… and if you would have to decide if you invest into improving gameplay or improving engine, it would be hard decision…

However, improving the engine improves frame rates, which improves gameplay.

It isn’t always about improving gameplay, yes we can all agree it will. Nobody here is arguing that having Dx 11 support isn’t going to be beneficial, so effectively you are arguing against a point one disagrees with.

The issue here is, it is WORTH the cost to ARENANET. I don’t pretend to know much about engines but supposedly doing it will require having to rewrite the engine, this is what I heard.

Ask yourself NOT from a player prospective but from a BUSINESS prospective, do you think it is worth the cost to rewrite the engine. From what I understand a lot of players are not going to quit the game simply because dx11 is not support. It certainly wouldn’t be the reason a player suddenly decides to quit nor will it be a reason a lot of people suddenly start to play the game either. It will improve performance for a lot of people but again it is all about Return of Investment ultimately.

TL;Dr
Performance will improve but I doubt Arenanet believes it is worth the cost to THEM. People are not quitting in droves due to the lack of Dx11 or at least their core audience.

You dont have to rewrite anything. Its all about renderer. And if you think its going to cost them milions then youre wrong again.

Yes man, update your potato as fast as possible. Gtx 770 and some i7 3,4ghz probably from second generation lol. Nice museum over there.

You gave yourself a good advice, now to work.

this “museum” piece still outruns most you ppl’s PC’s by a mile, FPS is to me so fast i HAVE to use V-sync or i get tearing all the time.
do i have to mention ivy bridge maybe?

Ivy bridge is actually quite old. But yeah you can be proud, that 3,4 ghz is op as well. Gtx 770 with his mighty 2gb of vram is scary too..

Sadly unlike you i have i5 4690k clocked to 4,6ghz and i want i can push it out to 4,9 without any problem.

Along with that msi gtx 970 clocked to 1500mhz, 16gb ram corsair vengeance 2100mhz. I should mention other stuff like samsung 850 pro and so on (i have few extras) but i dont think thats necessary. I wish ya good luck outrunning my pc.

Apparently someone found out the datamined chat codes for Revernant weapons have changed a bit: http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/336lgd/revenant_dagger_skills_have_changed/

Dagger skills are different and quickness on block has changed to knockdown on block.

Sword now grants Vulnerability on Autoattack, the 2 skills to block projectiles or something, and 3 is probably the same teleport spam attack but it now grants might on hit. It no longer applies torment and burn.

I think it’s safe to say Sword will work the best with a traditional zerker set now.

Any vid/ss for a proof? ;o

I think grouch plays engie too

Overall engi is favored in this game as to this day many of their op abilities/traits are not nerfed so its safe to assume that engi is their gold child. I bet the specialization flying turrets will be even more broken and they wont do anything about that as how they dare to nerf engi ;o i mean its the least playable class so its needs moar buffs.

Yes man, update your potato as fast as possible. Gtx 770 and some i7 3,4ghz probably from second generation lol. Nice museum over there.

You gave yourself a good advice, now to work.

In case you all didn’t want the ANET team playing yesterday…. the leader of the ANET GW2 team (Colin) plays a turret engi. Don’t expect to see it nerfed.

Any vid/ss for a proof? ;o

And yet i have feeling that the new shield skill which inflict taunt from Turai Ossa will be a revenant skill

No idea. I cleaned 7 condi against a single target with arcing slide. Cant make any vid as i dont have anyone online to test it out.

And cleans all condition you have at maxed out adrenaline. Enjoy till you can!

So i have been playing it for a while. Overall its not that bad as long i dont get focused howered killshot hits like a joke – 4,4k crit in shoutbow. I dont even… if that is supposed to be our best burst ability then rip. It needs some serious damage buff in this case

This one is better

I can’t check on the code right now. :O What’s the effect?

Checked others closely and it does seems its a completely new skill (dindt replaced anything) In fact its just another placeholder.

Jade Wind still has 90cd [&B3ttAAA=]

^Looking at revenant traits (if that what they showed us are finished version) i think they plan to merge many existing traits from adept and master as many of them are bad anyway and noone seems to use it. At this point we might see rework for them.

If anything im waiting for “on my mark” to apply reveal.
