Guild Wars 2

The fact that a thief player comes here to call anything broken is laughable by itself.

Daecollo.9578:

COF path 1 world record was done with 1 warrior in group :P

Sorry but you are months old, after all those damage nerf, with 2 thieves as main dps run faster cof1.

I don’t tend to judge balance on the game’s easiest dungeon path. Stuff the arrogance.

Daecollo.9578:

That is a common misconception because of big numbers, we actually do damage on-par with other classes.

Yeah, sorry, I’ve put 2.5k hours into my warrior, I don’t think there’s any “misconceptions” left.

God, will BP ever stop hiding in their towers? I try to party THREE of them to fight them all at once, and they refuse, hiding in Bay. I’m gonna start mailing burgers out… -.-

Because we clearly don’t do enough damage in PvE already.

Half of the people raging in that thread are just screaming in some effort to rationalize to themselves why other people have something that they don’t and why those people are somehow fundamentally flawed. It’s the same story in every online game I’ve played: “I’m not impressed! It’s no big deal! Let me tell you at great length about how much I don’t care!”

It doesn’t matter how people get their legendaries, there will always be people who rant and rave to minimize their accomplishments.

Would I like my legendaries to be account bound? Absolutely. Would I like to see them stop selling on the TP? It doesn’t matter – if they didn’t want to buy it outright they could just get most of the main components with the same gold. But personally I feel like making it is the way to go.

lmao, his posts keep getting worse and worse.

These thief tears, I’m loving it.

[pk] had fun building a WP in BP Hills.

Bailey.6892:

I think you have the wrong forum this is the warrior forum not the thief forum. Said as a lvl 80 thief.

Don’t lie.

No it’s true, the thief forum is actually here:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/thief

Oh man, more terrain stuff in general in WvW. Fighting near a couple of trees against anything with range is hilarious.

It’s okay guys, he’s “usually sensitive to this sort of thing”.

VictorTroska.3725:

Wrong. First guy would just stealth away and he would never catch him. 1st guy ONLY appeared later again because he saw that 2nd thief attacked warrior, so he was confy enough to come out of his kitten stealth and look like hero there. Without 2nd thief that 1st one would be running to his mother crying for warriors nerfs.

But overall, once again bad player is rewarded for bad play. Thief class ladies and gentelmen.

Exactly what annoys me about the class and 90% of the people who play it.

Have him mix some Knight/Zerk with maybe a Cavalier trinket in there or something and run a build like 30/0/25/0/15. I’ve been toying around with it and it’s a decent all-purpose PvE/dungeon build which hits hard and takes a good amount of punishment. If he feels that’s too tanky, move the 25 points in Defense into Arms and start wrecking things with crazy damage.

Looks like he stomped some would-be zergling nubs to me.

lol, by using the adrenaline to cleanse the poison, you also dump the effectiveness of your Adrenal Health.

And oh no! They’re "a pain’ to take down! How dreadful! That’s absolutely hilarious in the same post talking about a thief, of all classes.

That’s basically it, Cogbyrn. There are counters and they’er exactly what you just mentioned in most cases. Way easier with the build in question here also than something with high healing power.

wolfpaq.7354:

I have already provided several arguments. Your failure to discern them, yet alone provide any response other than “I’ll just insult the person since I am incapable of basic reading comprehension” proves responding to you any further is a complete waste of time.

I didn’t address your so-called “arguments” because they’re unworthy of consideration, being poorly constructed, ill-thought, and generally a waste of my time. Healing Signet is what it is. You’re angry you can’t faceroll warriors now. Cry more.

Perphection.8209:

Lol, your posts are hilarious. I love how much you embellish, well I guess I should say lie. Again, do whatever you have to do to make yourself feel better =) At the end of the day you’ll still be angry and I’ll know the truth. I just wish there was a block on the forums too..

Angry that I’ve stomped members your little guild into the dirt because they didn’t have someone waiting to rez them? lolz. I’m not the one stalking people into threads with some petty vendetta. A pity reset is tonight – I’d grab some more screencaps of your miserable corpses and make a little display for the forums here just to show what a poor player you really are.

Deeds, not words. You fail to deliver either way.

wolfpaq.7354:

Nope. Did Sil realize there is no argument to justify the overpowered signet and decide to turn to insults instead? Looks like it.

No need to argue against you, because you haven’t provided anything yourself. You’re just throwing a tantrum over how “OP” you think the signet is without any substantial backing.

wolfpaq.7354:

BAAAWWW.

Did widdle wolfpaqy get stompeded by da mean ’ol warriors again?

BurrTheKing.8571:

I believe the reason Skull Crack feels so OP to non-warriors is because for nearly a year if a warrior wanted to do well, especially in PvP, they have to play SIGNIFICANTLY better than their opponent. Now that we’ve been brought up to competitive level those long time warriors have gotten really good at timing their skills correctly.

I do have to wonder if this isn’t true in a lot of cases. We’ve been on the low end for so long that now when we get a bit of justice, we’re able to put things to use that much better.

It’s funny because stun breaks aren’t even that uncommon for most classes anymore. I don’t see how people can’t get out of it. Hell a single stability wrecks the entire stun chain.

Linnael.1069:

True for now, but only because conditions have been utter trash for so long people stopped bringing on demand condition removal. Its still just as bad against, say, any eles still running the cantrip cleansing build, or any necros still playing boonswap builds.

I’ve actually fought some eles with the build I’m using and surprisingly, while they can indeed cleanse a lot, I can put out way more pressure than they can. Only problem is that once they start running away it’s pointless to chase, but then that’s almost always been the case with eles. >_>

There’s really no need now. He’s a joke. I’ve seen his guild first hand after putting on my solo build and about the only thing they’re good at is rallying each other repeatedly when fighting an equal number of pugs.

Oh man, so mature. Gonna quote an old post just for the sake of causing problems. What, did you get a flag through your skull one too many times and come back to cry to me about it?

But yeah, “free bags” That must be why I and some pugs ran your pitiful group off on multiple occasions in our home BL the other night, huh? In the event you did kill them, you still couldn’t focus me down, even with your laughable roaming squad. On one occasion you didn’t even have the guts to cap the camp after I went back into it alone.

Try harder, Perphection. vT is far from threatening. I could kill any one of you 1v1 at any time and have flagged more of you than you ever encountered me alone, laughing while I did so – this I have discerned from watching your group try so very hard to succeed and fail time and time again. I did so enjoy watching you bleed out.

Love it. I literally cheered every time you turned around and stomped people from those cowardly groups chasing you down. And that slo-mo rally on the dying guy? Haha!

Gotta love that reflecting sword block too. I got a guy to hit himself with Kill Shot the other day. Felt like a ninja.

EXACTLY, feliscatus.

People need to take a look at elementalists and guardians. You’re telling me that the amount of health regen warriors got access to is somehow more broken than what both of these classes already had?

People are just crying a river because they can’t stand the fact that warriors aren’t a joke to fight anymore. IMO we still need work in a bunch of different areas as well.

It’s true, poison alone will often give you reason to regather yourself if you’re using Signet and Adrenal as your main healing source. Combine it with decent burst and you will generally need to get some distance to recover that health.

Deathspike.1870:

At this moment, an Apothecary/Settler warrior with S/S and LB is much scarier than the ones chaining stun.

You know it.

The thing is, it certainly isn’t any worse than some of the gimmicky crap that already exists in this game. So I can thrash a guardian at their own game? Let them cry. Thieves bleed out while they try to hide from me? Good. Oh, and how I love watching mesmers slowly melt away.

Excalibur.9748:

It is true that the thief should win 1v1 vs every other class though, cuz we’re the dueling/roaming profession. And we’re pretty bad in everything else so it’s fair, don’t you think?

No.

The point is, the thief didn’t live because he was skilled enough to read tells and dodge attacks accordingly; he didn’t live because he knew how to time stuns. He lived because he was able to go completely invisible and have a free escape by virtue of his attacker being unable to land the smackdown an unskilled player deserves. We’re saying that his stealth is a crutch.

That’s a part of why I’ve stopped running hammer in WvW. Group play is fun, but it’s too annoying to watch the low CD escape skills save bad players in smaller fights and 1v1. I’ve had some great success with my new build though.

This video is a great example of why I hate the entire thief class. It doesn’t matter how much of a horrible player you are, the ridiculous stealth mechanics in this game give them a free escape until another one of their tryhard buddies shows up to save them.

I just had a nice relaxing bath in the tears of classes who think of warriors as a free kill. Great for the skin.

Excalibur.9748:

There is play to defeat thieves, there is no play that can beat a warrior. That’s the problem and why people are complaining about warriors, instead of thief.

This forum is ridiculous because when someone makes a legitimate claim, he’s just bombarded with pointless “L2P” comments.

Is there no play to defeat warriors, or are you just throwing a tantrum in reaction to the FotM build? It sounds to me like people are so used to warriors being free kills in sPvP that they don’t even know how to react to them being something of a threat.

I run something with a similar concept in WvW and it’s excellent. Pop your Lemongrass and a couple of other tweaks and you can pretty well destroy necros if you want to. The only threats I’ve found so far are groups and having some coward backstab me while I’m already fighting other players.

I don’t find regen banners necessary, really, but can definitely see their appeal.

Hell the blind and stealth gimmick is still ridiculous. Not because it’s unbeatable, but because of how obnoxiously forgiving it is for bad players. The whole thief class needs looking at in modes like WvW, and people are here whining about warriors?

I’m reminded of why I don’t bother with this forum anymore. What a broken record. Some guy comes in asking if there’s a possible bug because of the amount of damage he’s receiving with a huge amount of armor and it’s just the same “L2P”, insults, etc. over and over and over.

I don’t see the big problem with this build. It’s useful to have in a party with me but I have trouble thinking of it as some sort of OP monster build, given what other classes are capable of. It’s rather funny that as soon as the warrior class starts running something even the slightest bit viable, people throw a fit about it.

If people think Healing Signet with that amount is bad, wait until they encounter a build like the one I’m running now in WvW, haha.

They could at least fix the censor system so that it isn’t blocking out half of the otherwise completely acceptable words along with the ones they don’t like. I can’t even post URLs and quotes without it causing a problem. >_>

Oh, I get what you guys are saying. I’m just thinking about it in terms of like PPT, and our impact on it. If we’re having a positive impact on that score, we’re generally doing what we’re doing well. I’d just like to see more people on Ehmry have the enjoyment of succeeding in that way. Like Snowreap said, it’s easier to encourage new people to try this out when we’re doing well in more plain-to-see places.

Lately I’ve went back to a build which is better at 1v1 and have been making my impact by trashing and defending camps and dolys at night. It’s less useful in a larger fight I think due to the lack of hammer, but overall I would say that I’m doing more good for my server than ever. I do realize there’s only so much I can do about the score and if I every leave Ehmry it certainly won’t be because of that, but it’s still nice to see the collective server succeed.

Jakob…you seem to have selectively ignored a post I made in the middle of those, touching on how I thought of it in terms of server morale. Additionally, Snowreap is not responsible for what I’m saying and shouldn’t have be judged based on it.

Stormcrow.7513:

….Most people can’t even afford a precursor. TP or grind?

Some of both! I’m actually on the game like a lot anyway.

The funny thing is, even with it “bugged”, it still doesn’t give us any truly overpowered builds. I really hope they don’t change it, because it’s one of those things that actually seems to work especially well for our class to give us a much needed competitive edge.

And the filter is bugging out in a hilarious way it seems. =p

Doors are no joke.

Ha, nice.

Grieve.1432:

The thing is Sil if people are leaving because they are losing it’s probably better for your server community overall since they are probably the ones whining and complaining the most causing more friction than necessary in your server community. The fact of the matter is you will always have that chance to end up in a series of losing matches unless you are on the extremely stacked #1 server with the system Anet implemented. That series of losses may actually show your server who actually cares because the loyal ones will be there day in and out no matter how rough the situation. This is coming from mine and a number of CDers experience after being pounded for I think 2-3 months straight by SoS and Mag after we had a big exodus.

I wouldn’t say they’re leaving because of losing. Rather I know that at least one guild has left simply for a change of environment. When a large and/or dedicated WvW guild leaves, we need to fill the hole. People who mainly PvE aren’t as inclined to want to join in on a mode where it looks like we’re going to lose the majority of the time.

With the nightcapping, there also exists the problem that no matter how much effort you put into defending your BL late night, it will all be undone by the time you wake up because a swarm of noobs comes and knocks it all down unopposed. That’s really lame because it completely defeats the purpose of competitive play. I honestly wouldn’t mind seeing a separate set of Oceanic servers implemented down the road or something.

Ehmry could use a solid win at the moment. A number of our more dedicated guilds have left and we’re trying to get more of the PvE population involved to replenish our numbers. Call it an interest in server morale to get more people to play with us.

Hahaha, the tears of those who can’t just faceroll warriors and expect to win anymore. OP is what, a D/D ele? I love it.

Well, time to log on and see how much PvDooring was done by CD again while I slept. It would be really cool if primetimes were all around the same times.

I didn’t bother reading the long entirety of this thread, but I will say it made me laugh. HOW DARE I MAKE SO MUCH VIRTUAL MONEY.

God, a lot of enmity for us, isn’t there?

I just play a lot and like shiny things; that’s why I have three I guess. From the other side, I’m not really “impressed” by all legendary users, but I do admire the dedication of those who I know actually put in the time and effort to get theirs, being familiar with the process myself.

Much like Rozbuska though, people more seem to care about my overall look and armor than the legendaries themselves. It’s flattering to get comments about my in-game avatar though. =)

I HAAAVE THE POWERRR!

If anything, recent news updates suggest good changes for legendaries – including the ability to freely change stats on them outside of combat. I wouldn’t be surprised if there were some cosmetic changes in store as well.

Haha, maybe the defenders could use a raise. x)

Speaking of hacks, I believe it was a CD guy we caught last night teleport hacking into our Bay?
