Guild Wars 2

i feel like more aoe dazing other than the shatter could make the interrupt-buffing traits very op ._.

oooo can you sign me up?
i main a mesmer in pvp but lately i’ve been duelling with other classes because frankly very few people can beat me as mesmer in duelling or pvp :p
I’ve gotten relatively good with “juking” as osicat puts it, which is where i’ve gotten most of my experience haha.
i currently main the condi-mes confusion build a lot of people are using.

i would rage hardcore if i were at the bg event and u got him down to 1% and then failed ._.

i believe once bg/any other sever gets teq beat once, they’re going to realize that the rewards arent worth it and the leets are gonna leave it to pugs and it wont happen again

regardless, could we get some advice from someone about the proper strategies for utilizing turrets/ the lazer, as well as protecting them?

also, in the 1% screenshot, did you see how many icebows/fiery greatswords were on the ground? possibly a hint…

i never knew about a problem with stacking confusion on zergs, seems like a legitimate strategy but i guess you have to protect the idiots spamming their auto somehow. i was mostly referring to 1v1 battles with sceptre, not the glamour confusion build, but i guess i understand why they did it now, which was unfortunate for any other sort of confusion build NOT meant for wvw zergs. they probably could have just put the cds on the glamour confusion traits to not hurt the other builds..

if i were a dev i would definitely think about giving a condi mesmer a little bit of their confusion damage back,
i mean basically the only way i’m able to kill a person in pvp or wvw as a condimes is to have about 3 or 4 stealth skills and hope the opponent doesnt notice the bleeds my duelist/other illusions is putting on him >.>
i’d say the actual confusion from sceptre/torch is very bad compared to the bleeding/torment you can burst onto a foe every once in a while, i mean on a lucky confusion burst i could maybe get like a 1k+ hit from some1 for like MAYBE A SECOND before all the confusion goes away. i mean the stacks arent even worrisome anymore. at least give us a little damage back, nerfing it to 50% damage was a little overboard in my opinion.

oh and my second patch would be to make the trait "illusion summoning skills recharge 20% faster translate over to “deceptive evasion” so that ur endurance recharges 20% faster since it creates a clone after ur dodge XD (<= joke (no w8 pls let this happen))

Feranor.2053:

Liadri as a Ranger sucks far more since your pet is useless.

^ oh and this x 1000
how do you think rangers feel atm :p

i’ve read about halfway down the first page and i just had to laugh. some people need to get over the flaws of a pvt or zerker necro; it isnt for liadri lemme tell you that much. you basically dont have the mobility to survive phase 2 with a zerker (or even phase 1 for that matter), and you dont have the dps to down her in phase 2 with a pvt necro with ds.

in my opinion, conditions is one of the few ways of actually beating liadri, i mean ur not gonna get that many hits in on her anyway, why not let conditions do the work for you while you evade/kite/safespot out of the aoes.
i have a lv 80 thief/mesmer/warrior; i couldnt get anywhere close to beating her with them since i use my necro for pve more, and it took me a lot of tries, but with rabid gear i managed to bleed her to death with conditionmancer, and the kiting wasnt even that hard, remember you do have multiple condition transfers as a conditionmancer if she tries to cripple you. and staying out of the ways of the aoes is a breeze if ur not stuck in the freaking outskirts of the dome; staying in the middle=less running to safespot=more endurance when you absolutely need it.

little bit of a rant but i hope this helps some people since i managed to get her with a necro

thanks for the tips, are there any special settings for seeing these “vague outlines?” i can’t seem to see them when im in the dark room. i suppose i’ll have to look harder the next time im in OS if not

basically what the title is, share your tips for getting through the darkroom in stealth from the fountains in the Obsidian Sanctum Jumping Puzzle please

i do know it’s possible i’ve seen fellow server members do it, and i’m not talking about stealthing with the mad king book on you or that kind of stuff, i mean full-on “advanced darkness” with no lighting.

how do YOU do it? i just get very confused with my surroundings, i have no sense of direction or location and would like a tip or two.

i would just like to be able to stealth through the entire jumping puzzle; it’s mostly a personal goal and a little helpful when there are campers in the puzzle.

if this is the wrong place to post this feel free to move this thread or delete it {:)
