Guild Wars 2

My Charr Necro :]

Just dawned on me that the strange texture appearing underneath the bracers is actually the same as the aqua breather.

It was pretty OP in BWE1 when it knocked down, had a huge range AND did good damage, but for whatever reason they decided that every single one of those things had to be annihilated and it’s probably the worst elite in the game now.

Light Armor looks dumb on Charr eh?

My necro begs to differ ;o

CptCosmic.3156:

everytime I read “necro UP” I have to laugh. if you know how then you can stack a 20 stack of bleed in no time and removing it via condition removal is non issues as all the skills have decent cooldowns… necro is boss in spvp. just because some things dont work does not mean the class is up.

Show a vid of you stacking 20 bleeds in “no time”.

Still waiting for this^

@ahmon

Trying to berate me for degrading a “polite discussion” by prefacing your rebuttal with “Would you kindly shut the kitten up about this?”.

You are not making a convincing argument here.

That’s not a rebuttal. I just want you to shut the kitten up with the, “Jon Peters said!” bullkitten.

>ruining a polite discussion

Imani Hype.8235:

A nerf for condition necros and a buff for power necros.

Might gives boosts to both.

You are not making a convincing argument here.

The following profession skills now hit 3 targets instead of 1:

Elementalist Dagger: Lightning Whip, Lightning Touch

Hmmm….

And then Jon Peters tells us that the problem with our class is we are not using Death Shroud optimally.

JQ is a pretty unlikeable server so it would make sense that SBI eschewed an alliance with you in favor of seeing your demotion to 4th seed.

OP is just not very good at thief I suppose.

Plus. Freaking. One.

I haven’t done sPvP since a few weeks ago when I ran into this same situation and got yelled at by a bunch of barbie dress up “pvpers” that just wanted to trade caps for glory. Ridiculous game design error.

That thing is too ridiculous. Needs to be scaled down a bit to deal with that fact that like 1/4 of it clips the ground when sheathed.

Hah! Armor in this game is great!

Oops didnt see this thread. Here’s my contribution:

Now that I think about it I cant’ say I’ve ever used another dagger class. Hmm. Just seems odd that every other martial weapon would cleave except for the most high-risk ones that casters have access to whereas a mesmer with a sword cleaves and goes invulnerable 1/4 of the times he’s in melee range.

So you’re like rank 100 already?

LOL that is NOT a gaming GPU.

And how they should look:

I have had this happen to me since level 10 with various types of handgear so its not specific to these gloves. I have never seen it happen on another race. I’m not sure what causes it, possibly tabbing out of the game. Pictures attached:

Dagger mainhand melee attacks do not cleave nearby enemies unlikes every single other melee weapon in the game. This helps account for why our class hardly ever gets loot/credit in events and makes our multi target DPS suffer in a huge way. Would love to get some dev feedback on whether this is intentionally (poorly) designed this way or if it’s another bug.

CoF armor was getting pretty tired so I whipped this set up. Looks nothing like you’d think a light armor set would but then again you dont see many light armor Charr around either:

Same person has been doing it every time. Some female human theif from Sanctified Wrath guild.

Unbelievable…this crap again… as a GoM player we are really getting sick of this crap happening every match up causing us to get slandered and focused by both enemies…

Good one. Butthurt amirite? huehuehuehue

Flying Dutchman.3214:

Erebus.4260:

Too bad you just believe the hype. I know for a fact that we didn’t fly-hack the Yak’s Bend and GoM orbs. But keep telling yourself that. It was a propaganda machine to pit Yak’s against GoM and you fell for it.

That’s not even close to the truth. I was STANDING in the keep it was stolen out of defending the gates. Inner gates were never breached. Kitten, the outer gates were never breeched. We had the orb, then we didn’t. I was there the whole time.

Was never in your keep. It spawns at the north altar where a group of 30 of us took it from legitimately within minutes of the match starting. I was in the group that took it so make up all the excuses you like. If you have some evidence indicating otherwise go ahead and present it.

hackks.3687:

if stealth is for survivability then why are they spamming the hardest hitting abilities in the game while still being invisible?

Exactly my question.

Bassi.3627:

Well, obviously you’re supposed to use the utility skills that reveal thieves from stealth!

I know you were being sarcastic but this brings me to another point; thieves trying to defend their OP class by saying other classes need to bring “X” to counter them.

I don’t feel it was the intention of Anet to have every single PvPer be forced to use two utility slots on an immobilize breaker and stun breaker just to counter being instantly gibbed by a pistolwhip thief.

Why is it that the highest survivability classes, the ones with stealth moves, always seem to be given the highest burst damage moves? You can try to make an argument based on low base health/armor but it falls to shambles when you factor the ridiculous mobility and survivability from stealth into the equation. At the same time you have classes like the necromancer with damage beat into the ground because of their supposed “passive survivability”.

So why is it exactly that this class is getting 14k backstab crits and then disappearing into the shadow with no fear of retribution?

There’s a lengthy cooldown between ticks (10 seconds I think) so this wouldnt really work

Thief using daggerstorm could have done that in 1/10 the time

midnitdragoon.8419:

But if they want to make extra $$$ would they not do it for that?

Maybe you missed the memo about when they stopped selling copies of the game because introducing more players would degrade the experience of the current customers? Anet isn’t going to shaft their players for a couple bucks.

I like how our reactive fear trait has a NINETY SECOND COOLDOWN lol

If only Ruin would xfer to JQQ so we could have all the obnoxious players on one server…

In bed with Ruin and SBI is gonna get an STI.

This game really wants to deter people from actually helping by purchasing, placing and building siege as if it wasn’t a big enough issue already.

Heartseeker is 450 range gap closer with no CD and 3 initiative cost. If anyone thinks they’ll actually escape a thief L O L

Stop Heartseekering into walls.

This isn’t even that bad as far as thieves go. A backstab build will do that damage in 2 attacks right out of stealth and you’ll have no chance for recourse.

That class is ridiculously overbalanced. Look at their traits if you want to cry.

Yeah, I guess that explains why I’ve never seen the mist thing proc correctly. That was money well-spent.

Thanks for the heads up guys

As of the last patch my death shroud has been locking me in and making the skills unusable for around 5 seconds. It even bugs out whe n Igo lich and traps me in “lich shroud” form. See screenshot.

Anyone else getting this?

Orbs are like those stupid CoD killstreak things

Been in Yaks borderlands where we too kthe orb legitimately. The last time this happened it was by a person in the guild “Sanctified Wrath”. has Anet looked into this yet? Tired of the entire server getting slandered because of the actions of a couple hackers.

Crossposting thread from guru which seems to be getting a lot of interest:

http://www.guildwars2guru.com/topic/65276-an-outreach-to-gate-of-madness/

If DS is OP like Master Yi, can you make us a tutorial video on how to dunk on nooblords?

If the stun is so worthless why not just take it off Anet? See how many of your explode into tears.

Yeah I’ve been hit by these for 14k so I’d say you got lucky.

Good post Myrkur. One of the concepts I touched on briefly in my talks with [TOTN] and [SANC] was that it’s very difficult to motivate people to conform to an Alliance when we’re in a position of crushing defeat and weakness. You would think that it would have a unifying effect on the human psyche but since there are no tangible stakes here in an online world its far easier to fall into a state of apathy than one of furious productivity. Once our next pairing begins I think we should gather our thoughts start a much harder recruitment and unification drive when people are refreshed instead of beat down and pathetic.

I’m idling in the IRC if you want to talk it over.

This really needs to be looked into and quickly because this was one of the prominent things that killed Warhammer Online. Tout WvW as the true “endgame” then leave it crushingly imbalanced.
