Actually what he said is true. Yesterday i did a 2vs1 with engi and elem from BB. They engi got down, the ele came with 7 more friends. GG BB, nice playstyle.

Welcome to war.

Id rather have working traits that buff the weapons we have and let go of the stupid conjures. Don’t waste more talents in our trees for these things.

1 - Make then an instant cast.
2 - Remove charges or atleast make the autoattack not use them.

Or just make it account-wide instead of the kittened system* they came up with.

* Unless you can play 24/7

Wow, BB spawncamping SFR BL with entire borderland pop and siege. Haven`t seen such a sad thing in a while. You [MMO] guys are brave heroes, indeed.

Special dedication for Big bags go BOOM

Sadly you can’t reach Kodash BL with siege from there, let me teach you the basics.

Engineers/Guardians out-dps’ing Warriors. Do i dream?

No, you don’t.

Grenadiers, sword/focus guardians, sword rangers and hammer eles out-DPS warriors.

Vizunah Square

15char

Because Ascalon must be avenged, eventually.

Meanwhile Vizunah Square is still the best server EU, period.

Cuuuum on, step it up guys.

And if there were an alliance... what would the problem be exactly?

Darkman.1257:

In roaming wvw yes you’re right. In GvG however if one person makes a mistake it can change the tide of battle and you’re done. Still I agree that we should all focus either on small scale roaming or create wvw arenas or GvG. In order to reflect players skill that is necessary. Playing 50+ is boring and no skilled. At least we agree on this one :P

Playing 17+ is boring and no skilled.

Darkman.1257:

SFR Forum Warriors I’m warning you for the last time. If you do not at least decrease your BS! on forums to bare minimum. There will be consequences.

Oh god my sides.

World vs. World (WvW) is PvP combat that involves hundred of players. Three huge teams —each representing a server, or world—battle for control over objectives on four massive maps in week-long matches.

Spiuk, CONGRATULATIONS, you’re good on searching information in official pages.

btw, you left: clash with other players in truly massive battles, wreak havoc behind enemy lines

Indeed it does, massive battles… a.k.a blobs.

Looks like they are an important part of the game after all.

Lisellen.7048:

a) The assumption that WvW is meant for defending and attacking towers etc. is too hasty for my taste. Obviously it’s a big part, but considering the fact that the maps are designed with open fields in between objectives it’s fair to assume that open battles are also a huge part of this aspect of GW2.

There is no GvG in Guild Wars 2, you must be confused.

There’s no a dedicated place to do GvG, but it actually exists.

Snowstorm.3897:

Rody, Option up for GvG?

And Covis, so BOOM trashtalk on forums but don’t have balls/ability to GvG? Figures.

DeWolfe.2174:

I think we all know Staff Ele is the worst build in the game.

LOL

You cannot be serious…

Lisellen.7048:

And why would you engage in a ’guild fight’ (especially in an open field situation where it’s not about a tower attack or defence)? If you are in an organized, fairly big guild, I think the main purpose is to have challenging and nice fights, not to trample the enemy like a stampede.

Because World vs World.

You should try with more arrow carts.

The kitten?

Mah husbando in his WvW gear:

The trinity.

I would settle for actual teamplay.

2 wars / guardian /mesmer / X is still the best party for the 95% of the PvE.

You are obviously mad and not making any sense.

I rather pay for actual expansions than having mediocre content for free.

Because is not needed.

All of them work at that level, and much higher.

I’d rather have a sword to pair with dagger/focus.

You what mate?

I miss the lack of gear threadmill, 8 man groups and actual teamplay from Guild Wars.

Dub.1273:

Still, 6 of 8 professions suck at dealing damage. If there is more than one target, 7 suck.

No.

In fact 100b warriors are not the highest DPS in the game (talking about organized groups).

No.

Stop the kittening threadmill.

Good PvP is not coming back, PvE is more profitable.

While some of the changes are not reasonable I agree that fire and especially air attunement need some improvements, the ele needs a high damage ranged weapon and reworking the air staff would the best bet (right now it is completely useless after the lighting field).

I think this deserves a bump, I love the character outlines but the bloom ruins it...

Meh .Have fun with your coverage and bragging wars it is all you have in t1 with current meta.I feel sad for players stuck in it’s gameplay.
While the rest of us enjoy THE REAL WvW from tier 2 to 8.

They should just rename t1/t9 to PveWvW and t2-t8 PvpWvW.

Sure ! I like ur real WwW.

LMFAO

Adamantium.3682:

Scootabuser.4915:

The big problem is that, although engis have a great vuln build that is one of the most desired party slots in high-end PvE, if you have 2 engis in the party, the engi doesn’t have any way of bringing competitive DPS, offensive buffs, or defensive buffs to the table.

This perpetuates the negative stereotypes of Engineers. This suggests that the only viable build is a Grenadier and that no other build can bring anything the Grenadier can’t. That’s silly.

No it’s no, it doesn’t matter if you like it or not, grenades are our only viable PvE build for high lvl fractals and speed-runs.

Engineer is meme now?

Your group was bad, moving on.

My leg!

If you are fighting 3 or fewer people you are being useless, that’s why I made the distinction. In that case just run whatever you run in spvp, most likely rabid + lyssa.

You are entitled to your opinion. Taking camps solo is pretty good for your team IMO but you can run with the zerg like the rest of the...

You can’t flip camps on your own unless you play against servers with bad/no scouting or when everyone is sleeping (and even that dosesn’t work against servers with good coverage).

In both cases those points won’t really matter since you can’t take towers on your own.

If you can’t see the difference between a 10-15 ppl group and a 70ppl blob you are doing it extremely wrong.

My PvE guardian is lvl 60, and I have the ele for WvW.

Plus the extra character slot would be nice.

Spiuk.8421:

Unless you are running around killing upleveled clueless players and being useless in general condition damage is worthless, your conditions will last less than a second against decent groups.

In zerg fights, yes. It’s pretty useless but against supply camps and fighting 3 or fewer people it’s pretty effective with HGH.

Unless you are running around killing upleveled clueless players and being useless in general condition damage is worthless, your conditions will last less than a second against decent groups and your direct damage will be pitiful at best.

I rather have one hand sword with a "battle mage" playstyle (meele and short range skills).

The engineer needs a meele weapon.

Just sayin’...

lol massive damage

Sure it is.

bromi.7809:

they realise the skill cap is higher than spamming 222222

Skill cap of facerolling HGH condi gren is extremely low. I blame exactly it for massive engi spawn.

LOL. I’ve heard this so much recently. I am not kidding when I say that HgH has the highest skill floor and skill cap in the game ATM. NOBODY lands all grenades. I have 4k games on my engi, at least 3k with grenades. I still miss a lot of grenades. It’s called a skillshot for a reason friend.

And as far as the topic itself goes, I think it’s because of the steady buffs and a bunch of people (mainly me) SCREAMING that HGH is the best build in the entire kittenin’ game in tourneys. People are just now starting to believe it and actually play my permutation of the build.

It’s been slow, but ever since the smoke bomb nerf a wide variety of builds became viable because of buffs. Most important of which is the addition of sigils on kits.

I just pray we have another option when the nerfs come down.

You should try run a 4 kit build then, in special a 4 kit build with a grenade kit in! ;D HGH Nade kit ain’t the hardest build to play for an Engineer, but it for sure ain’t easymode at all, anything useing a nade kit require quite the skill level, that’s for kitten sure!

Yes it is, switching between 4 kits is not skill dependant, anyone playing engineer for a few weeks will do it perfectly fine without thinking.

On the other hand you will never land every grenade, like he said above they’re called skillshots for a reason, and grenades are the hardest ones in this game.
