I am not a big fan of the current condition system in the game, so yes unless this and its availability for all classes is revised i do not care for another condition. You can call it Paul for all i care, condition damage and the connected gameplay varies too much from gimmick to push over. While similar is true for boons i higly doubt that exchanging one poorly implemented mechanic for another is the solution to overstacking.
Regarding your bait and attempt of putting me into the position of a power peasent i suggest you try to be less condecendig or might recive an answer in kind. This however is not the foundation one should try to build an argument on.

You even missed the pun in beging afraid of condition… Shame on you

Edit: if i am not clearly unterstandable, english is not my native language and i write from my phone, thus autocorrect proves to be quite the condition.

It simply feels like If I hadnt presented the mechanic in the form of a condition you wouldnt have had that reaction.

Actually i simply do not think it should be unremovable. There is the problem for me. Make it removable, but make it available to all classes, maybe even give it an additional effect.
“Out of balance”: you stumble loose a boon every pulse

The problem with condition removal for that matter is however that some classes can’t shroud the DPS condition from removal as good as other classes. Mes and necro even engi throw a crapton of conditions at you, but only a few are the ones you want to cleanse. Others have a major dmg condition but can not shroud it in crap to protect it from removal. So it is a problem of condition availability throughout the classes you see. No condition should be unremovable, neither should be boons, thats why you can steal resistance. I think balance is not imbalance from one side to another, therefore it should be removable and condition availability throughout all classes revised.

So no i do not hate conditions, but the rather poor decision of not giving it in equal availability to all classes.

Yeah well if you think the game needs more condition and even ones you can not cleanse have fun. i see no reason to bumb this threat if you just want to drive the condi masterrace agenda. Have fun.

Yup give a boon when ever you cleanse a condition that can’t be stripped and makes you immune for those condition. Sounds rather bad? Well there you go. I sincerly doubt we need more conditions in gw2 while the existing ones aren’t well implemented.

They are in your face Direct
Warrior is rather easy to learn, the Problem is to get better as a warrior in pvp. Our skills are quite easy to make out and therefore to evade. But if you want to suprise people go warrior. The latest patch have us an interesting change in sustain. Right now many people are not used to fighting Warriors in pvp or roaming wvw and underestimate us more often than not.
But before you think if pvp forum opinions, you may want to learn the class. Warrior is mobile. In my opinion perfect for exploring and warrior is reliable in dungeons and fractals. I have 4 warriors, you might call me biased:D.
One thing to keep in mind is visual fidelity. The race you choose defines your animations. For example Norn might feel sluggish but their male axe evicerate one of the most amazing abimations in game imho. So if you want to play warrior, considered your race and gender as well. Do a trial run if you are unsure.

Silberfederling.9302

What exactly does my sexual orientation have to do whith my ability to fight the Dragons? Are there male or female straight characters who’s sexual orientation needs to be emphasized to establish their importance? I do not think so. Why would you want to single trans or gay npcs out? I enjoy the world for the fact that all are equal and sexuality is not a major plot point. If you feel it is i may suggest you look who sexualizes the game. My experience is that players emphasize female characters breasts and then small kitten of every one with a legendary or that certain characters styles are considered as gay. You and i know that there is no talking with those people. I fear singeling out transgender characters for their sexuality might not serve your intention of increasing awareness in a good way. The course you strive for is good, it really is. But you can not force change in a or several societies through a game. Speak with your local contacts in politics or contact awareness campaigns. But in an anonymus place like an online game you will not change anything. This is a topic so laden with agendas that a serious discussion is not possible on anonymous grounds. You are right that arenanet is in fact very open in their approach of this important matter, but they allways did it through integration and inclusion not singeling out sexuality as important characters defining matter.

Its curious that the solution for a problem has to be excluding people. Instead of waiting how the nightcap solution from anet looks like noooooo let’s suggest isolation. Really calm your kittens. Vote. Wait. And do your self a favor and think about areas other that good NA and filthy EU tinkerers. What about the aussies? Are they also scum? Brits that enjoy playing with people that are competent in speaking the same language beyond: get gud y u mad lma boi. Or students of the english language that use this as a help or training. I wonder what is with South Afrika? New Zealand? I am pretty sure they do not exist just to be your personal blight. Nor is it their intention to wreak havok on the precious scoring system.

Some customization makes sense, but I think in some ways it’s better as it is now. The amount of neon green and pink flames from fire attuned eles/flamethrows/fire effects etc might be a bit immersion breaking :P

Visual immersion went out the door a long time ago.

Why make a legendary if you don’t like how it looks? Would it not be easier to get ascended if it is just about the stats?

Just genuinely curious here, not hatin. I guess it makes sense if it is for the ability to swap stats at any time.

I do not
The ones i care for i make. I how ever understand people getting sick of the skin of their legy. As i said in case of the gs legy i would love it to be the scale of the galant gs, keep the effects and textures.

My neighbor player a fair amount of warframe and said something similar. I don’t know honestly .
I think it should give you the option to, but i don’t know how that might impact visual feedback you ingame. I could imagine it to be hard to differenciate the white ice field from the white waterfield from the white darkness field from the white chaos field. I really like the idea but i don’t know what impact it might have to wvw for instance.

I think fields like that should have to stay their colors. But weapon trails and projectiles should have color channels, IMO.

I can see that work.

Dying your weapons would also be quite interesting. We do need a pink gahstly shield XD

I think it would be a bad idea to buff Siege vs player dmg. I think Siege vs Siege dmg should be rather high. But AC as it is should not become a bloody loot machine. Imagine a bridge fight and both sides start building acs, then ballistae, then shield generators, then what? Golems for every one? OK i exegarate. But still the main player killer should be players not some random dude spamming a rather poorly implemented game mechanic while squeaking in joy about auto loot and power dmg noobs.

Why dont you like them Belial?

They are too flashy for me, I like my weapons to look like weapons not a special effects stick. I have the Flameseeker prophecies, I really like that shield. It go’s well with my rev.

Pretty much this. I am not a big fan of quite a few legendary weapons. While i do apreciate that the have to be some sort of visual upgrade but so far the gs, old Staff and old axe have never been my personal style. The gs would be fine if it was about 2\3 thinner you see. I do like the galant skin for instance and would transform into it if i had one ( legy gs that is). As it stands i am the guild scribe and i doubt i will make another legy

Originally, the idea was that limiting the number of options in the UI makes the game more accessible to first-time MMO- or RPG-players. Naturally, experienced players tend to think that more options is always better and that’s true… for their needs. But when you consider how people share strategies and communicate rotations, things get trickier. It’s easier if every guardian understands staff-1 is the same for every other guard; it’s easier if everyone has slot 6 as their heal and slot 0 for the elite.

Is it better for the community as a whole? Does ANet think this idea is still better than offering options? I don’t have any intuition about that — I know that it makes it easier for me to help novices, but then again, no one is a novice for that long.

I also don’t know how hard it would be for ANet to design and implement a more flexible UI (I’d like to see a complete overhaul, so we can resize and move panels). At the same time, there are 100s of great ideas out there for improving the game. I’ve adapted to this system, so I’d rather see ANet work on other stuff that is a bigger obstacle to enjoying the game.

Risking to go somewhat off topic here:
I liked that you could move the ui bottons for inventory, friends, guild and logout where you wanted. Why? Do your ask? Well, just because. I had them under my group menue where klicked most of the time as i was a monk in my later days. I do apreciate this is rather useless in gw2 and we do have more pressing matters at hand, ( guild hall decorations placement and deleting for one) but i do think ui should allways be customizable.

Well i play warrior Berserker with zerker gear and strength runes, Elite spec, defence and disciplin. As weapons i play GS, axe\shield and a rifle in my backpack, so to speak. Mango pies as food. I rarely have problems with this setup and can only suggest you try it out. My guild buddy, that i run hot maps quite often whith, most often runs either a coni mes ( no idea what he skilled and geared) or a zerker druid. He has neither more nor less struggle than i do, how ever he said that for instance the bloody raptors are annoyingly good in making out who’s clone and who’s player. I think that should be considered when thinking about soloing, as you might have a nasty surprise otherwise.

There are loads of possible cool stories i would like to know more about, not just malyck, but he was certainly quite interesting.

You could still rebind them, hell I use Q E R X C for my skills and 12345 for my abilities.

I was at first going to answer with this too… but it doesn’t solve the OP’s problem. If they want a CC on 5, for instance, the CC is currently different depending on the weapon. This means each time they log in a new toon, they’d have to reassign their keybindings.

Dear OP,
i do unterstand your point and to some extend i agree, but (we all knew there was a but ) i think that a certain amount of distance for both sides is required to prevent sitiuations like you find quite often in spawn camps or a while back when WPs Wege bugged: fights that drag on for ever with out a clear victor while the third party happyly pvds the remaining map.
