Guild Wars 2

I use strafe A and D and i use Q and E for some other things like Q is watching back and E is turn 180degrees

Dunno what makes you think i use A/D as turning XD

Well Lich sure did have a big big part in the power necro

Oh and what is “keyboard turning”?

Mechanically i can learn some more ya but the key bindings are perfectly fine

Making queues longer for more accurate matchups doesn’t fix the problem.

You have to take out the problem by the roots.

Very few players queuing..
Why?
Because playing is not rewarding to PvP apart from tournaments that give Gems or something. But that is only for the very best people, So the best will keep playing and the others will quit due lack of rewards. Which makes good players get into matchups with randoms….. GG

Take out the problem that it is not rewarding to play sPvP and you will fix the rest.
(little example)
Lets say you want to buy bifrost.
4000g

You get 25s per win soloQ and some stupid boxes which are let say also 25s?

That is winning 8000 games.
If you do 10 games average each day 800 days.
Lets say 10 games take you about 3 hours (including queuing time and stuff)
3hours x 800 = 2400 hours to get a legendary by pvp

On the other hand
You can do CoF 1/2 SE1/3 AC 1/2 TA up/down in about 3 hours

which are 8 dungeons which gives 8g normal drop and lets say another 16g form random drops = 24G per day = 166days = almost 500 hours

So PvE gives you the legendary almost 5 times faster

(note: these are rough numbers and could be off but its just a quick example why PvP is not rewarding enough)

Also… the old system was better….

When PvPing on second account i noticed it.
I’m PvP lvl 35 on it now and when I go to the wardrobe i have like 5 skins per part or weapon. With the old system i would have like 10-15 by now

People who only care for PvP don’t need crafting items that can be only used by getting some more PvE items

A well lets see if at some point the CDI will hit PvP and they might actually listen to what we say

Very true,

Celestial gives 3066 stats
Normal amulets give 2232 stats

That is about 37% more stats…
Take a whole team of celestials and your team is 37% stronger than the enemy team?
(just in stats)

But god that looks awe full… why is that in the game again?

4 skill is even worse than the 2 skill ^^ unless they work with “death nova on dead minion” which no one traits for

2bad they made the design that only spamming 1 skill is best dps in it :<

So true,

No reason to keep playing sPvP which makes queue suck.
2bad ArenaNet not listening to the SOO many options we gave to make it more attractive to play on daily base (for everyone, not just for the absolute elite top players who can win tournements)

Lich is really bad atm it has so many flaws and it just puts a big mark on your head that you want to die XD

I just checked vs a bunker guardian just liching couldn’t get him below 50% hp within 20seconds and he still had 2 blocks and a blind left…. Half killing someone for a 180sec cooldown that makes you biggest focus in the game… Meh not worth it anymore
(Yes this was a good guardian,lol)

Lich was always easy to counter and never really strong unless you just stand still. What made it strong was Wells -> Lich because people were to stupid to stand out of the wells or to busy to do so ^^ which made the gameplay way better because you had to know when to wells/lich and really watch the cooldowns of the combination which made it fun for me to play. (and i liked the idea of 1 person dieing, others trying to ress and everyone dead XD)

But Lich has more bad parts.
-It is 2 big so it shoots over engi turrets. it completely misses them XD even when click on them to shoot at turrets.
- Same thing goes for roots. There is no way to get out of roots as a lich. That combination should be called DeathSignKillMePleaseScareCrow orso ^.^
- free stability for enemy thiefs
(in my opinion transforms should have an internal stability that isn’t rip/steal able, cus knocking down a giant makes no sense to me and that goes for every transform)

I understand that for ‘bad’ people lich was 2 op. Just standing still not knowing what to do getting 3-4 shotted is annoying. And I guess they don’t balance for the ‘hightier’ pvp. Where lich was SO op that I was the only one using it… kinda feels like a Seiishizo nerf in staid of lich ^.^

A well this is not a rant post or some complaint. This is just me telling that lich isn’t usefull anymore and that i’m sad about it.

Maybe the stupid golem will be my next love if he stops building sandcastles, picking flowers or just sadistically wants to watch when I die XD

But i will always love my dear Lich ^.^

back to the only necro build still viable——(thought they wanted to balance so more builds would be viable…?guess they don’t know how XD)

We need sustain,

It always made me wonder how a necro could not sustain with “siphon”…. Never heard of any game where the main “siphon/lifesteal” class is the worst sustainer….

Thats just PvP wise

PvE wise we need more party related stuff like: Blasts/some party boon stacking skill?/something that gives passive 150 stats to whole party?

If its so OP 2v2 why do we hardly see it in the 2v2 weekly cup?

Hey everyone,

We are looking for a 5th player for ToG (we play on 4th of October in Group C)
Unfortunately our Thief Collero can’t play that day So we have to look for a replacement. Note that this can also be a non thief class, we just need someone that knows his class very well and will fit in the team. We thought about either a Ele, Engi or thief but we are open for suggestions ^.^

We are currently:

Warrior – Terron the grave
Guardian – Titanium
Ele/Engi – The Nufrael
Necro(power or condi) – Seiishizo

We all have been in top 25 of teamQ and we are aiming for the same thing when we find our 5th.

The options of which class are kinda open. So feel free to contact me in game (seiishizo.7162) if you think you can fit in and tell us why you think that

See you in game ^.^

Dailys do not reset for some people. And it has been for this for like 1 month
This mean you can’t do the following content

-Worldbosses
-Dungions
-Dailys
-Montlys
-Guildmissions
-Fractals

That is like 80% of the game…. for 1 month, no wonder these people quit.
Thnx to this 1 of my best RL quited….

i could use the data from gw2score and make like “gw2score leaderboards” based on something like this. Sounds interesting, I might look into it somewhere next week ^^

Being able to use guild influence to get the following NPC’s/objectis in the guildhouse

-Bank
-TP
-Crafting masters and tables
-Mystic forge
-Portals to some area’s?
-General merchant
-Guild merchants

In general the most important thing is that people would rather spend time in the guild house than anywhere else when not really doing something content related (like PvE/WvW or PvP) So its a nice place to hang around and do the stuff you would normally do while hanging around in LA or one of the other big cities

I’m hearing more and more people having the problem with dailies not resetting, this also counts for the daily dungion/worldboss reward.

Any fix any time soon?

it’s been up for more than a week!

tl:dr

wvw zerg: good
wvw solo: between decent and bad
pvp: decent
pve: bad/unwanted by teams

if necro is that strong, like some people say, then why are there so few necro’s in top teams? the only people who claim necro as being strong are the ones that get hard counterd by it….

NERF IT BECAUSE NO ONE USES IT! PEOPLE WILL USE IT NOW!!!

wait what that makes no sense… no one at ArenaNet could have seen that?

its a useless trait and it will always be that way. unless they up the healing by alot.

it even heals less then the 3 points into defence traits of warrior and that is an always on trait and a minor trait.

buffing useless traits part 2 please arenanet monitor howmany people are actually using it… it will be very very less

looking for 4th utility slot instaid of elite….

ya same thing here give us 4th utility slot

dancingmonkey.4902:

When you get an elixir that gives you a random RnG chance for one of the elites you call trash or the worst warrior elite, you call me.

ya cus supply create is so bad you don’t want to use it. -.-’?

all other classes got some bad and some good elites

necro have only bad ones…

Golem: is always busy building sandcastles and eating pancakes and rather lets you die then help you fight and on top of that the rush is nerfed.

Plague: The hp and toughness is removed == no more bunkerish stuff so its useless

Lich: power is removed, about 45% crit is removed… you do more dmg in normal state than in lich…

3/3 elites are complete trash… GG ArenaNet

This is what happens when you don’t involve the community in balancing classes

First i thought they would only remove the power so the skills would still do same dmg…

THIS IS NOT THE CASE!

about 45% crit chance is also removed…..
Why is this overnerfed so bad?

33% nerf in duration
about 50-60% nerf in dmg (if you do the combo correct)

for what reason? It was OP? if it would have been that OP then why where there 0 lich at both ToL tournements?

this is just bullcrap-.-

I am/was the only necro using lich at high tier pvp and it got nerfed for the reason of noobs getting stomped by it because they cant dodge….. yay thank you noobs….

I deal more dmg without lich than with… what kind of elite is that? for 180 seconds cooldown. very nice joke arenanet

as top 10 against mostly not even top 1000 players.

As you can see this was around 9am PST = 6pm CEST in the europe server on a Wednesday. Don’t tell me me we’re so underpopulated near prime time that I get this matchup WITHIN 5 minutes of queue.

This has nothing to do with under population or a long queue. because i saw streamers get in to normal ranked matches. this is just a bad design.

Yes my paint skills are bad

PS: for the people interested how i made this picture with everyone on the leaderboards. its very simple add them to your friendlist and check out their ratings because they cant even be found at http://www.gw2score.com/PvP

PPS:
I didn’t want to rant about it on forums so i send it to gw2 support. but they gave me this email when i asked how this was possible:

" I do apologize for the delay in responding to this issue. The best way to have your feedback or suggestions for Guild Wars 2 reach someone in development is to post it in a public area such as our Official Forums, Twitter feed, or Facebook page. The more people who view and comment on it, the more likely developers will take notice."

so it seems they can’t communicate internally about issues that are incoming from support so that’s why I post it here now.

he uses the same build everyone does…. hes just a very good player that’s it

this would be really good, but take it to the next lvl, show stats dmg dealt, dmg on you etc.. maybe mmr rating?

if the matchmaking works like that than how is it possible for a top 10 person to get queued up with 9 people that are around leaderboard rank 900-1000?

i sended it to support but no reaction maybe evan lash can say more about it….

(if you don’t believe me just, i can upload a picture if you want)

Wolf.5816:

This chest could be a “Epic Skin Chest” of sorts that once opened would reward you with a single, random non-legendary skin that you do not possess.

+1 very good idea

I think they should interact more with the community on balancing, specially for high lvl sPvP. The skillcap of the developers are way lower than the top tier players. So there is no way they can balance it for top tier players…

But from arenanet i think it would take 2much time to: setup test servers-> get the correct people to test -> get all info from testers-> evaluate -> balance the game

that’s probably why they don’t do it.

yet i would love to see them do it !

i agree that staff 1 is really bad, but immob on a spammable skill would be really OP

i think that the projectile should be faster, so it doesn’t have to travel for 1 second to hit 1200 range

Good idea, it would help new players get into teams

Ya i agree on that people just want to do it for views. But when you say you’re not allowed to do so and if you do you will be removed from the test server, should fix that problem.

Also you have to make sure you get someone from each profession who mains it. Else it wouldn’t be use full.

ya cus necro is sooooooo good at stacking might…

ofc its a nerf

And team broke :< seems like finding a roster is harder than playing the game

So i’m looking for a team again,

Spectral Armor – Recharged reduced from 60s to 50s

http://i.imgur.com/6jrq57U.png

That is 40 seconds.

I highly recommend ArenaNet when they show a video like this, NOT to use traits that affect the skill even more….

It confuses people

1) healing possibility in deathshroud (not a stupid grandmaster trait who heals less than a warrior SMALL master trait) This shouldn’t be a trait thing in general this should be always possible.

2) improve autoattacks from staff. It is so slow currently that you can dodge it by just pressing adadadadadadadadad. Most useless auto attack in the game

3) Add something to necro to make it usefull in dungions and not be insta kicked, Like a team buff. 150+ ferocity for whole team trait?

and i know its 3 but i really wanted a 4th and a kinda general one

4) rework traits/small traits that are almost completely useless, necro has way 2 many of those

I started playing necro 2 years ago and loved it. untill i noticed that i get kicked out of dungion partys because they assumed i did no dmg. After a while i made a warrior and yes it was true. Warrior did soooooo much more dmg…. necro is useless in dungions

In spvp i still like necro but it seems like that necro is fading away more and more. There are so few necros at high lvl because of that the viability of a necro is highly considerable.

Also when looking for a team for ToL in the past. If i did play ele or warrior or guardian i would have easy got into the tournament. But no one needed a necro

Hey,

I really think we need a public testing server. Where op tier players can test new balance stuff. Main reason is that the developers (no offence) have no where near the skill lvl of the actual really good players.

For example the dev team got beated by the Chinese team really hard (at least that’s what they said during gamescon) and the Chinese team was the weakest of the 3 teams.

So the developers can test all they want but they will never be able to test it in the same way the best players at the game can.

Specially when there are upcoming esports events with even price pools you would want the game to be balanced. And at this point it also has to be clear where they are balancing for. Are they balancing for spvp/wvw/pve or even low lvl spvp or absolute top tier spvp?

What do you think about a public test server?

so many things addressed.
so few things looked into.

I expected way more of the necro changes.

I expected changes to:
dagger 2 (shorter cast time like almost all channel skills had this patch)
axe 3 (blast finisher?)
warhorn (blast finishers?)
changes to more serviceability traits not just 1….
changes to one of the so many useless traits

and a nerf on passive fears. I really don’t get why they are okay with 3.5seconds aoe fear that is passive

still useless trait, by the time it becames use full you will prolly die in a couple of hits. so you only get a couple of might before going into downstate. yay

2bad that a grandmaster trait heals less than a master small trait of warrior. makes absolutely no sense

I was just wondering, a lot of skills like ranger longbow 2 and necro axe 2 got upgraded in speed because they were way to long.

Why didn’t this happen to life siphon(necro dagger 2) it is 3.5 seconds channel?

as top 25 person i get queued up with people around rank 900-1000 at 6pm cest (kinda close to prime time)

GG for current leaderboards,
It creates toxic players. i get angry at the lower ranked players cus i expect them to play on my lvl. cus i expect to be matched with equal skilled people…. wrong

this creates the leavers/flamers/afkers and all other toxic stuff

this should be fixed or there is no fun playing soloQ for anyone. either you less skilled people in your team or you’re yelled at cus you got ranked with to higher skilled players

Hello frands! Vee Wee here, #1 Engi NA and world first rank 80!

Vee Wee just wants to say gw2score.com is awesome and Vee Wee uses that site on Vee Wee’s stream! Great work!

Wahoo! Bye frands!

Thanks, good to hear

+1 we need this

seems like the game is starting to be a novel… a mmorpg should never be like that in my opinion. It should be about gameplay and content

I found a team

thanks for the bump^.^.
