Guild Wars 2

Making a thread to appeal for 4 util slots. Done.

I like the sound of spectral soldier. I will go with that.

If I do make a video, I want to give you credit. Would posting your full handle name be ok?

I’m not arguing the nature of passive stats and traits. I’m saying that an improved support system along with condition spec combat would turn a lot of people off to the game. I’m pretty sure this is why guardians will never have a viable condi spec.

If said combos didnt exist, and going really high into condition damage and support power was impossible (settler/apothecary), then I fully support this idea. I really like playing support, and its disheartening to have that absence in this otherwise awesome game.

Probably what Straegen said, but I think it is a great idea if it could be done.
Deep wound isnt needed lol, there is already so much spike damage in this game.

I think your head is in the right place, but not enough people care (generally) about lore and pve like mechanics in wvw.
The only thing holding this game together for me are the combat mechanics, and I think that it still needs some minor tweaks.

Yep, remove them by nerfing the hell out of their damage. That would help but there would have to be a few more things done, but anet likes the zerg so that probably wont happen. I like the option of zerging. I dont like being forced into pvp like scale and thus pace.

Awesome idea. Hope it is complete and accurate soon!

Just add a very small chance of receiving 1000 gold from a Black Lion chest, which you can of course, purchase from the gem shop. Boom done.

Sounds like a solid idea.

If only we could carry a 4th utility slot… I would love sgrasp.

There are too many situations where swall saves my kitten . I use it to separate point, against perma stealth thieves, on mes veil, in 1vX, to disengage, heal/melee protection etc…

I occasionally grab sgrasp but swall is just so good.

Definitely try this in zerk amulet! Its so fun. I dont play anything else but this now.

What would you call this spec Bull? Thinking of making a video of my noobness. Lets think of a sweet name, and make all the condimancers jelly.

Hopefully they can restore your rank, cuz it seems its not anets fault.
DDoS attacks have hit a few major gaming companies recently, the biggest in history in fact.

Nice Bull.
I’m running the same thing pretty much. Recently changed to that setup. Shrouded removal takes place of that extra transfer we get with the staff.
Zerk amulet, soldier jewel, melandru runes, -sgrasp+swall, -plague+golem.

Its the best imo.

True, but not a legit lottery where you can win gold from other players, i.e like real life lottery.

The karma looks great, but I would never do that cuz I rarely need karma. Sure I could rng it, but I would rather rely on something stable.

99% of the suggestions wont happen, but its fun to suggest.

Its the best imo.

i cant stand how slow some toons are. here i am standing on wall, i do a lot of it, and its safe to say that when ive had enough then its time to reconsider some things anet.

(Do it. Hey, do it.)

1.5g per hour is atrocious. how often do you get drops worth something?

Join a guild that doesnt like to stack, and stop your pointless banter about how this game is wrong.
Or make your own game.

how disheartening… another bug.

uhh I think deathshroud counts as the best oh crap button…
but yea overall good attitude keep it up. to do that avoid the forums :o

Do this because I want it, that is actually this way, no youre wrong because Im right.

Ele and engi are the busiest classes, and the most fun for a lot of people. Depends on your playstyle.
My favorite is necro. Very good condition damage, which is good for aoe pressure. If you can pull off a power spec, then it gets much more interesting. Good aoe damage and cc, decent burst, awesome sustained dps, and melee/600/1200 range all packaged into one devastating class. One of 4 of the most wanted classes for wvw. Others being warrior/guard/ele (couple mesmers). Not so great in pve and dungeons, but its viable.

Servers that are losing always say this. It makes them feel better about themselves.

Servers that wipe to a smaller and more organized force always say this. It makes them feel better about themselves.

LOL. That doesn’t even make sense as a comeback.

Probably not, I havent been to t1. The point I was trying to make is that ppt people always use the score instead of lootbags as a way to determine who is winning.
Difference of perception.

Power Necro
attrition sustained burst-ish
melee-600-1200 range
plenty of soft/hard cc
rewarding to survive constant pressure hate

That makes sense.
2 sec channel that absorbs damage and converts it into life force, as well as doing damage. How does that sound? Kinda like guard sword 3.
Frees up a slot so we can get a leap :)

But at the same time I feel like we’re taking advantage of BG and SOR going to EotM a bit too much.

Your not taking advantage of SOR because SOR doesn’t care. We play for fights and bags not PPT. We don’t want to WvW anymore because BG and JQ play for PPT and just blob, sit In T3 towers with Arrow carts and then blob from one tower to the next tower thats the only time you will see them. And when they don’t run in the blob the fights are fun but short lived because then they blob back up and hit you with overwhelming numbers.

Hey swagg.
Agree to all but the sigil of battle nerf. Its not that op.
Wont the upcoming sigil update include sigils of the same type on different sets to share a cd? Thinking they will.

Yeah I just checked out the API subforum and clicked on some links to get an idea of whats going on. Interesting stuff!
Waaaagghhh!!! A toggled crosshair would be so awesome!
must
learn
programming
noooooowww
:|

Good argument maddoctor.
Although I agree with you in it being a win-win, I dont see a big company like ncsoft accepting and implementing player made mods. Would be extremely beneficial if they did though, cuz like you said it wouldnt be too hard to check for hacks.

Uhhh why shouldnt necros have channels? That is a large part of my damage. What would you replace it with?

This is a big issue that should be addressed.

Yep AoE would be awkward to work around… I for one wouldnt mind learningto use it. In fact I would embrace the challenge, because of how radical I think a crosshair would be for my gameplay.

It really does, but then what would we do while we are all standing around?

Here is my guard:

What if there was a distinction between a selected target and a mouse-over target? That would remove the threat of a projectile moving too slow.

Corrosive poison cloud is plenty of poison for me, but to each their own I guess…

This is a good idea for WvW but maybe not so much for PvP.

Do not fix the bug, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

My 2 cents
1. Increase the amount of damage needed to be done in order to rally. Staff guardian / warrior with 3 tags of AA will not rally. What will the numbers be? Rough example: 20% of enemies hp to rally. Reset this amount when enemies hp reaches 100%.
2. Allow in combat ressing once a minute.
3. Give a 10 second debuff to the person who was hard ressed.

If and when I quit gw2, it will be for this reason.

What do you mean by primary target? Red dot over someone then select another without targeting them? That would work in PvE and maybe in PvP, but not WvW.

A pain for some, but for those that want it… I know I’m not the only one. Am I?
Even if there was just one more available target, that would alleviate things quite nicely.

Only one target on one player at any given time.
This has bothered me for a long time. There are so many times when it is necessary to have more then one target icon.
In PvE, taking down the weakest npc to the toughest.
In PvP, target on bunker, target on first spike and second spike.
In WvW, target on driver, enemy driver, party frontliner, a party member to support when they call for it, and enemy to pressure (staff ele).
Please, for the love of quaggan, give us more targeting options.

Good point about axe/horn.

Its true about dark armor, like I said I will probably switch back at some point. Unless its a warrior with berserker stance up, I have plenty of soft cc available to deal with melee. Ranged damage is a problem. There are a couple if times when it is nice to have that extra armor to deal with bursts up close and far off (ds4 is a good example). Being able to take some damage out of ds saves life force as well as the cd for bigger spikes. I havent used spiteful removal, but in some cases it would be great.
I’m thinking I will switch dark armor for dagger mastery though, and get spiteful retaliation.

Warhorn is the best choice for zerging because the cripple is reappliable and can last very long. Daze on their backline is nice to.
Focus is single target.
Dagger will be cleansed immediately.

style.6173:

CTF? Spirit watch is already too imbalanced towards certain classes. The only way I’d like this is if the flag carrier had NO skills except to run. The only option would be to drop the flag. That way it is fair across classes. It would also force people to defend more rather than watch some engi rocket boot his way to the point.

Team deathmatch? Yes please. Either first team to a certain number of kills (with a time limit) or everyone fights over one large conquest point. First to take it wins.

GvG? No thanks. This is better suited in WvW where players can have so many more combinations of armor/trinkets/food/etc. More strategy is good.

CTF would work just fine if no movement enhancing skills or teleports worked, and the carrier had reduced speed. No available skills while running is debateable. I dont like the idea of not being able to defend myself when my teammates are ignoring the one who is killing me.

GvG like everything else is an option. Once Anet introduces some more amulets like they said they would, hopefully there will be some useful combos besides zerk, cleric, and soldier (crosses fingers). Food is not necessary, and even disliked by a lot (+40% duration for example). It would possibly bring some people into pvp from WvW (fingers uncrossed).
