kirito.4138:

Don’t understand Anet’s logic if the new revamp pvp reward system isn’t ready…. why remove chest/glory from the existing system and kitten it more?

They are just phasing out the glory. This is the next step. This way you don’t receive anymore glory, but you still have time to spend all your glory.

Can you imagine the noise if they removed glory and the glory vendors at the same time? That would be loud.

Plus the balance patch isn’t ready.. blah blah blah.

When does this ever happen in PVE? When something gets added, you still have a couple weeks to use whatever is going to be phased out, we straight up got everything taken away with nothing else put in place except for more rank points which without rewards equates to exactly nothing.

They could have added the new rewards and kept glory vendors for a week or two and phased it out that way so that PvP players could actually be rewarded for their efforts instead of wondering if they should bother right now or not.

meichor.7809:

The reward IS the GOLD. Once they merge pvp armor with pve armor, it’s ALL buyable/craftable with relationship to GOLD.

getting the big picture?

Gold is OK…

Gold is not ok.

My friends and I play for PvP not PvE, why would we care about gold rewards? PvP should be given PvP specific rewards

What: Thief players eyes.
Why: If I can’t see them, neither should they!

Mesmer’s can and do stealth kill as well, sure they can’t do it quite so often, but why is it always aimed at thieves? Just seems like another thread aimed at complaining about thieves to me.

I’d rather they didn’t and glad they don’t. PvP should be kept seperate from PvE entirely, I don’t want to be getting items for a portion of the game I specifically choose to spend little time in and there are enough PvE boosters out there to make levelling easier as well as free level scrolls and 1-20 boost scrolls.

That’s why I said optional, delete them then, or just let us spend glory to buy them instead……. Why would you care if someone leveled an alt through PvP?

Btw, you can get bags and dyes to use and sell in PvE from PvP, and you can pull skins over from PvE to PvP they’re already connected, I don’t understand why you would oppose an optional miniscule thing like that.

Because as I said before, I think PvP and PvE should be kept seperate, I want PvP centric rewards, I don’t play PvP to get PvE boosts or anything else.

Dyes at least make sense because you can use them in PvP as well to change your colours……

Darnis.4056:

Am I the only one left that thinks pvp/pve should remain completely seperate?

No which is why I said exactly the same thing :p

Lordryux.9785:

actually ive been getting pve materials from salvaging pvp gears like no lie.. i wish i had a screenie but ive been getting alot of logs ancient logs and stuff from doing it.

This is true, whilst I have had none myself, my flatmate has been getting PvE materials from salvaging PvP equipment, much to both our bewilderment!

Make her like Scarlet, now Scarlet was really cool, not too easy and not too hard.

Sorry no. I agree that Scarlet wasn’t too bad. But it wasn’t really fun beating her either. I solo’d her on my first attempt. All she did was kitten boring, glaringly obvious and easy to avoid. Now I think thats how a boss you are required to beat should be (so no players are blocked from the rest of the story).

But a boss like Liadri is clearly there for players seeking a challenge. The only thing that needs a fix (not a nerf) is the kitten camera (and maybe aoe visibility) in that fight.

I also solo’d Scarlet, I was expecting some modicum of challenge but she has to be one of the easiest bosses in the game to fight, I left the Playhouse thinking “Is that it?”

I enjoyed fighting and beating Liadri, she gave me one hell of a run for my money and took more than one attempt to actually beat and gave me a sense of achievement when I finally beat her (ie player satisfaction), not so with Scarlet, it just felt half-baked.

@Chrispy
I get what you’re saying about Scarlet, but to be honest, I felt the exact same way about how all the recent Living World content was entirely based around a human story arc, why should my Asura/Sylvari/Charr character care a single whit about Jennah’s Jubilee or anything operating within and around it?

I would also like to see some continuation of the original main story arc – the Elder Dragons and I don’t really understand why they couldn’t have introduced the Living World content to be following this arc and actually building up to fighting yet another Elder Dragon, this to me would have made a lot more sense than easily forgetable diversions such as we’ve seen already.

I also agree with you about the Karka event, they were touted as a huge threat and then forgotten about, jog on. Southsun was highly populated while the event was going on then became a dead wasteland because there was next to nothing to do there, most people went for Ori nodes until the rich vein disappeared. The events that are ongoing there are not very attractive for the effort put in to actually kill those things.

I don’t feel that the story is moving anywhere, the dragons have been forgotten about and everyone is having festivals. PvE is amounting to zerg farm fests with very little substance beyond making gold and achievement collecting.

I’d rather they didn’t and glad they don’t. PvP should be kept seperate from PvE entirely, I don’t want to be getting items for a portion of the game I specifically choose to spend little time in and there are enough PvE boosters out there to make levelling easier as well as free level scrolls and 1-20 boost scrolls.

I’m kind of tired of killing the same person over and again in a heated group fight only to see them get raised 4-5 times before someone can actually land a stomp, though also, to be fair, kudos to the team actually bothering to help their own team mate that many times!

Instead of removing downed state completely, how about introducing some kind of weakness debuff like has been seen in other games (FFXI for example) whereby the player has reduced stats, HP etc. At the moment, you can res a team mate (or an enemy can), they heal to full and are completely ready to go again with no punishment whatsoever including full cooldowns in most instances (save for their elite if they used it) whilst everyone else is running on cooldowns due to still being part of that heated battle, it’s essentially giving them an extra life.

aelfwe.4239:

2- swap character under a game design point is the worst idea a dev can have. In pratice you are telling us that cause developers are unable to do a proper lfg tool then people should reroll a class in way to try to balance a bad designed lfg by theirselves. It’s a nice point of view.. so for example take my case, i have 1k+ hour played on thief and 2k+ on mesmer. i put solo arena queue. game put me in a party with 2 mesmer 2 ele 1 thief. so you are telling me i have to reroll guard (a class that i’ve never played) cause the party need a bunker? O.O

I don’t think anyone is saying you have to, though you might have to hope that one of your members will. Unfortunately a lot of people are either precious about what they want to play or they simply want to play the class they have the most experience with or have for fun with, which sadly won’t necessarily secure a win in badly stacked match ups.

Changing classes is currently used as a tactic by a lot of premade teams in order to counter opposing teams classes. I’m not saying it’s a good thing, personally I think once you are in the match (prior to starting and beyond), you shouldn’t be able to leave in order to change classes. Though people would get around that by having members join, check what the other classes currently are and informing their own team in order to change a class to counter. I don’t think there is any perfect solution.

Laxuar.3504:

I wan’t a control to the skill other than CD. I wan’t there is in ALL games: energy. Like GW1, WoW, Dota, LoL. Without energy you can’t cast a skill either if it isn’t in recharge.

OK, I see what you’re saying now. The thing is, other games have things to help with regaining it, for example potions and mana potions in order to boost that bar up again, putting in a mana bar would be a huge punishment for elementalists who have no physical attacks at all, being able to do nothing until that bar is filled enough again to cast something would leave them in a huge sitting duck situation.

What would be your solution to something like this?

That’s what skill cooldowns and thief initiative are for. I’m not sure what you’re saying.

This is actually one of the funniest parts of the community that never makes sense. You kill someone and you’re told you suck or you’re a noob. Really? I’m not the downed and dead player, so if I’m a noob and suck, what does it say about you?

There is no logic in rage lol
Anyway I don’t think I’m better than the player I’ve just killed. Sometimes I really am or I just know my class better, but sometimes it could be just luck or any other reason – for example he has lag, his mouse just broke or his mommy is sitting next to him shouting at him to tidy up his room.

hah, I don’t think it’s necessarily a case of being better either, but it’s just facepalm worthy when people react in that way. But as you say, there’s no logic in rage.

aelfwe.4239:

other option is hotjoin
2)if you win pray that autobalance will not move you in losing team

The only saving grace with this is that if you were in the winning team and get pushed to the losing team, you still get the win.

What I’ve been noticing a lot lately, is that some people will force an autobalance if they are on the losing team by popping into spectator mode and as soon as a player is thrown into the losing team, they then join the winning one. It’s very annoying.

evilapprentice.6379:

Withdraw

Same, it’ll register that I’m hitting it because the icon has the ‘being pressed’ animation, but nothing is happening.

Again, they didn’t have to give you anything. I don’t see the problem, nor do I see how it’s “a gigantic slap in the face”. Really? a mini means THAT much to you? Honestly…

Putting mini’s on the gemstore isn’t a problem. The only viable comments I’ve seen are those were a little disappointed that it didn’t follow the same system as GW1 with a random mini being issued. But to act like you’re entitled to it is incredibly overboard as is acting like it’s the end of the world because it wasn’t the same way. I’ve logged in at times during Living Story events and they’ll have sent me items I wasn’t even expecting (for example the pack of holo minipets) which is something they didn’t have to do and was a nice surprise. You’re just biting the hand that feeds you at this point.

I will say again, considering what thread this is in, that a mini has no bearing to what happens in PvP, nor does it fix any of the problems. How did getting a random mini affect PvP in GW1? It didn’t. The complaints here are very misplaced and seem more centric to getting a mini than anything whatsoever to do with PvP at all.

Forget about her, she’s not worth it, in the end, she’ll just crush your hopes again when you realise she will already have several other suitors, she’ll talk you one day, but she’ll never be yours

Eyia Hellhide.7320:

These 10 days I’m PvPing I was called a noob, kitten, loser, idiot etc for a first time in my life. If I was a bit more emotional I’d left so far. Seriously people what’s wrong with you? This is a game, relax, have fun. Your opponent in this game may happen to be your teammate next game, don’t hate them. Your aggression hurts people who don’t deserve it and if you can’t control it, I’d say it hurts people who are more decent than you.

This is actually one of the funniest parts of the community that never makes sense. You kill someone and you’re told you suck or you’re a noob. Really? I’m not the downed and dead player, so if I’m a noob and suck, what does it say about you?

There’s a lot of childish chest thumbing and childish rage over such an insubtantial thing, you’re not out of the game, you just died. People need to take such paltry things as character death as an opportunity to learn and approach fighting X, Y and Z in a different way, the trouble is ego. It’s part of the reason why I like that you cannot talk to other servers in Wv3 and why I never accept party invites from players I just killed.

I had some great games yesterday in a server where people were genuinely having fun and even cracking jokes when they died, people had good banter and it was very refreshing, it’s sad that these types of games are also few and far between.

kito.1827:

at first i really felt the same, although i’m not a pvp only player but a pvp mainly player.

it really felt completely unfair to ignore in a so called pvp game which claims for esports that they just give a kitten thing about you.

now i tell you why i don’t feel this way anymore. i spent some time in lions arch doing pve stuff. in about 30 minutes i heard so freakin many people complaining about the birthday gifts – and those where pve only players. i just couldn’t get why people can complain about gifts. i still cannot get it, it’s unbelievable.

then i came to the point that this game is just full of fastidiously little brats and no one really deserves to get a gift.

this really gets me angry

I agree with the essence of this. We didn’t actually have to get anything at all, funnily enough, we’re not owed anything either, this was simply a gift for players – look at it as a thank you, and yet self-entitled players spit in the face of that because it’s “not what they want”. So what? Again, you didn’t have to be given anything, a lot of complaints over the gifts are akin to some kitten little child crying because they weren’t given the right iPhone for christmas and act like it’s the end of the world.

At first, I thought “huh, this exp scroll is kind of silly”, but guess what, I don’t have to keep it or use it and it was my choice to level up several other characters and not everyone in the game has a huge character army they wanted to level.

People need to learn gratitude for free items instead of crying about it and to complain that it’s not poingant to PvP is pretty stupid when the best gift we could get are to actually sort out some of the deeper rooted problems currently in PvP.

it’s not exactly any better in Team-Q either, If I want to play with just a friend or two, we have to rely on the rest of the team being filled by pugs and more often than not leaves the match 4v5 because a 5th simply didn’t show up. Why on earth is the game even allowed to start when the teams aren’t even balanced to the correct starting numbers?

it’s one thing to lose a match by being outplayed, it’s another to know you’ve lost even before the match has begun.

considering that when you down a mesmer and they pop that ability and that it’s always the clone that appears visible first, the removal of a red arrow isn’t exactly going to save your life when only the dumbest of players immediately try to stomp the clone.

Downed abilities don’t exactly help you, popping a clone and going invisible isn’t a lifesaver any more than an ele popping into mist form or a thief using blind powder and teleport, even in the midst of big heated group battles, there are still relatively few people who will even bother to help raise others. In 1v1 it’s absolutely useless, all you are doing is delaying the inevitable by seconds.

google.3709:

minins on gw2 were random, of different rarities and gave the possibility of earning some cash and/or prestige( having an expensive mini)

on gw2, mini will be locked away on the bank forever never to bee seen again, since its ugly, account bound and everyone will have the same one!! ! do you still feel special ? :P

present on gw1; could be worth something
presnet on gw2; worthless.

Which has what to do with PvP exactly? You’re going way off the point here.

I don’t really see how they can justify the pet abilities as “making ranger harder to play” considering the amount of skill management you have to do as an engineer swapping through kits that all give you a different set of skills either. Seems like a shallow argument.

I’m getting the same issue. huge lag spikes until I eventually get disconnected from the game. it’s quite frustrating.

so basically you want an extra shadowstep that also grants a steal ability?

Whilst I don’t necessarily agree with everything (and I’ve beaten Liadri), I must say, it’s refreshing to see a constructive post instead of “wahhh QQ” all the time.

I think you’re having a very difficult time grasping the content of this thread or your ill concieved posts. You and other farmers want to claim ownership over a single arena, when it doesn’t got the way you want it to, harassement and verbal abuse ensues because your overwhelming sense of self entitlement takes over because you think you’re being inconvenienced.

As I said before, I don’t think you are on the same wavelength of this world.

No single player has any ownership over anything in this game save for their own home instance, their personal bank and items and custom PvP arenas that they have paid for. Everything else is shared content, and it would seem you and many others need to refamiliarise yourselves with what shared actually means.

bhagwad.4281:

Ooooh…getting personal are we? . Never mind – I’ll stick to the facts.

Personal how? You post contradictory comments and thread topics and make out like farmers are the good guys. I don’t care how efficient you are, you have no claim of ownership over anyone in this game, queue up like everyone else, if you don’t like it, tough I’m afraid. Nobody is going to cater for yours or anyone elses self-entitled attitude.

Anet is extremely aware of people farming this ad nauseum. They fixed Deadeye because he was easier to defeat than intended. It means those who can keep farming him despite that are still perfectly justified in doing so. If they didn’t want farming they would have just nerfed Deadeye’s drops instead.

And that’s why 7s reward was dramatically reduced was it?

Second, farmers don’t prevent other players from either getting their achievements or the mini. Like I said before, their runs are extremely quick and efficient. A player trying to kill Liadri would barely have enough time to repair their armor or whatever before the farmer finishes their run. It’s the farmer who has to wait for the regular guys to finish up. The inconvenience is just one way.

Yes you do, you’re moaning about people taking up your domes, firstly, it’s not yours, the sooner you and the rest of the farmers realise that the better. Who cares how long a Liadri fight takes, again, it’s not your dome to have any say over. You think the inconvenience is one-way because you want to farm and are too selfish to wait, the problem is attitudes like yours.

Finally, yes I was complaining that it needed nerfing because of farming. And yes when I found that he was still farmable I asked for builds to continue. Is that illogical? When there’s an opportunity to farm I’m missing out by not doing so. It still means that I want it gone. But if it’s there I’m going to make the rational choice to get easy money.

Again, it’s illogical that you make contradictory posts and topics. You cry for a nerf, then ask for a build to farm it, I really don’t think you’re operating on a wavelength of this world.

Farm all you want, but get in line when the case arises and drop the selfish and self-entitled attitude.

Not so hard to figure out is it?

Right back at you.

Static.9841:

People complain about thieves all the time, people accuse you of running simply for going into to stealth or call you a noob after you kill them. The fact of the matter is that non-thieves seem to hate thieves, take it as part of the game.

I think its the mobility and how overwhelming in many cases stealth can be. It could also be frustration. CnD months and months ago was generally perceived as hard to counter. As more players got better at recognizing the animation more players switched to DP. Stealth access that is hard to counter is frustrating to many players. The other issue is many builds not being able to run effectively forcing them to beat the thief. All that coupled with the unparalleled ability to disengage makes thief a bane in the eyes of many. In the big picture however, the larger the engagement the less effective the thief.

P/D since forever! C&D is still viable, it’s about timing and watching your enemy, it’s still easy to hit with it, people find it difficult because they don’t watch for enemy dodge.

D/P people simply don’t understand, the amount of players I’ve seen standing in blind fields trying to attack is mindblowing, you can stand outside of the circle and still be withing melee range, people just don’t learn, they get upset instead.

bhagwad.4281:

It’s not the farmers that get in the way of regular players. Farmers are efficient – finishing their run withing 20 seconds at the most. I don’t mind sharing an arena with two farmers. We all work together and get our rotations going nicely.

It’s people who don’t do enough damage and take forever to die that bother the farmers instead. Farmers are the good guys here.

No they’re not. The Gauntlet clearly wasn’t concieved as a means to farm ad nauseum otherwise 7 wouldn’t have been nerfed in the first place, nor would Deadeye have been been a little tougher – though people will find a way. Farmers are not the good guy when people are trying to obtain their achievements and Liadri mini which was exactly the point of the Gauntlet.

Speaking of Deadeye, weren’t you crying about it in a different thread about how it needed nerfing because of farming, then asking for builds presicely TO farm it? go home, you’re drunk.

PhyZiX.3802:

so first of all
when i play i dont see any body in the maps it is an mmo and it should a ton of people
so i cant do any event alone off course

Right now I would imagine that’s because many people are engrossed in farming the Queens Pavillion event. It may not be your cup of tea, but you could always join them in there, the levelling is incredibly rapid and you’ll farm yourself up some nice items/make some money.

any way if i wanted to upgrade my gear i just cant i cant afford it i only have 6 gold with thst i can only buy one good piece
and im lvl 73 by the way

You don’t need even 1g to gear up at your level. Forget expensive gear, get green items with the stat combo that you want, each piece aren’t usually above 2s. When you’re at 80 is when you need to concern yourself with upgrading to best in slot items.

i think getting into a guild would be good then we could go play pve content together
but all the guilds out there keep doing high lvl dungeons or farm orr i guess

Get a guild, ask in map chat.

also i guess my build is trash also
am a warrior so if any body know a good build tell me

Check the warrior forums here on the official forums, there are threads dedicated to builds and no doubt something you’ll like will be on there. You can also check intothemists website for builds and build advice.

1. Make sure people are around before you enter. People do and will raise you. I’ve spent a few hours just watching people’s efforts and raising them afterwards.

2. 3 was not hard at all, 4 was a bit silly I don’t disagree.

3. We were told. Also, don’t be so silly to assume that’s why Kiel won, a great deal of people including myself were actually looking forward to the idea of the Thaumanova reactor Fractal. The WP and key reductions are inconsequential.

4. It’s called varied content. You can pick and choose what you wish to complete, the choice is yours, you don’t have to do every single thing on the list, nobody is forcing you to do so. Living content is also being expanded beyond the 2 week mark, so you have 4 weeks to complete those achievements and collect the meta reward if you so wish.

Manoa.5897:

TheOneNOnlyGeneralBama.9586:

Now you understand why i don’t like rezzing people who die , i jump in and start farming Dunwell 15 seconds later 3-4 guys pop up and start loitering , more times than not they queue …and it takes them days to die or (rarely) kill the boss chosen.

Queen’s Gauntlet…totally bringing out the best qualities in the GW2 community.

My thoughts entirely, all I see here is selfishness and a huge sense of entitlement.

People complain about thieves all the time, people accuse you of running simply for going into to stealth or call you a noob after you kill them. The fact of the matter is that non-thieves seem to hate thieves, take it as part of the game.

JayMack.8295:

That doesn’t mean every single part of the living story is going to be group content. They’ve said multiple times that they’re trying to get a mix for those that enjoy the various types of content.

So far that mix is skewed in favor of solo players.

How so? You cannot do Crown Pavillion solo, you need other players. Don’t be under the illusion that just because you are running on your own that you don’t require the presence of other players, because you do. Events, world events etc all involve other players.

Coming of the back off MMOs like FFXI, I’m glad I can log in for an hour or two and run on my own when I feel like it instead of spending a long time LFG or I am unable to get a lot done in levelling or end game content. Conversely, there were a group of us who enjoyed fighting HNMs solo, not because “ZOMG we’re so pro” but because it was challenging to do so.

This has been the most lucrative update put into the game, can you really blame people for wanting to make money while they can instead of grinding out in open world right now? It’s not going to last forever, have some patience, the game isn’t just about you.

pavo.4371:

Static.9841:

Can we please not nerf everything just because self-entitled person X cannot beat it, when person Y can. We don’t need watered down content, we need decent challenging content.

Can we please not nerf everything just because self-entitled person X has beaten it and doesn’t even want common bugs to be fixed so he can have an excuse for spending 50g and 50 hours on the “easy” content and feel pro about himself.

So now people who won are self-entitled? That’s a totally rational argument. Did everyone in the game beat Clock Tower JP during the Halloween event? No. Did I? No. Do I care? No. That kind of kills your argument doesn it.

Which part of my enjoying a challenge says “I want to feel pro about myself”? If you’re going to make an argument, make it a logical/rational one instead of a knee-jerk reaction just because you can’t finish something that others did.

Can you also explain to me how a nerf in any way relates to bug fixing? A nerf implies making something easier, not fixing bugs. Again, not a rational argument.

Do you own a Ferrari? Do you get upset when people do and think that you should have an equal chance at getting one? Don’t be so absurd.

We are just fighting for another fractal. Is it a problem for you? And without the cheaper WP IWin button kiel would have failed with 30-70% at least.

I hope you enjoy the 10% discount.

Will you get over it? Is it not possible for you to concieve that some peopple might actually not have cared one single iota about cheaper WP costs? You have your reasons for wanting the Abaddon fractal and others had theirs for wanting Thaumanova Reactor fractal.

Whilst I agree it would be great to have both, don’t be so small and petty minded just because you’re blinkered over why you think your ‘candidate’ should have won.

Nah. We aren’t protesting for Evon (that1s just the in-game part). Look, if you wanted the Reactor, I don’t mind it. But most of the Kiel supporters I met (and I met many), were voting because they didn’t care about the fractals (never played them) or want cheaper WP. Or just don’t care.

I know there is a reasonable Kiel base and I totally don’t want to offend them, but the thing is Kiel won this election with the combination of RNG hate/cuteness/fractal/WP/we knew her/don’t care about vote. While Evon only had a fractal as a notable offer.

I don’t want to overthrow Kiel (ofc I do, she is a filthy landlubber afterall, not pirate material), but this is about having both fractals, not one over anther or making a new election.

We are protesting for our fractal and ofc for fun!

Whilst I don’t want to further an argument, your comment of “And without the cheaper WP IWin button kiel would have failed with 30-70% at least” doesn’t exactly promote your idea, nor does it say to me “we’re just doing it for fun”. I saw just as many people in map chat telling people to vote for Evon for cheaper keys as I did people thinking that cheaper WP costs actually meant anything substantial. I’m all for getting more fractals, why on earth should we be short-changed with just 1?

Personally I think it’s a big shame that we weren’t just given the both of them because we need more new content rather than gimmicky bonuses.

Thief condition build

0, 0, 30, 20, 20.

I used TG elite during one of the AoE blasts so that they would at least get some damge in before being evaporated by the next set of blasts.

I found it useful to time C&D with her lunges as well as steal + C&D in order to not be single shotting each time with a pistol. Condition brought her down very fast.

I would also intentionally take damage in order to utilise leeching venoms (with spider venom) as well as dropping refuge soley to use the lifesteal effect which took big chunks from her health.

I have to say, when fighting Liadri, the last thing I even thought about was “OMG terrible camera view!”. I enjoyed it a great deal.

Please don’t nerf Liadri, we don’t need watered down content just because some people can’t beat it.

+1 I enjoyed the Gauntlet very much, with the exception of the Tremor gambit glitch during the Deadeye fight, I thoroughly enjoyed earning my Liadri mini.

sex·ism (skszm)
n.
1. Discrimination based on gender, especially discrimination against women.
2. Attitudes, conditions, or behaviors that promote stereotyping of social roles based on gender.
sexist adj. & n.

Would you mind explaining to me then, why nobody, not one person has ever come to the forums, male or female, to complain about why every male character in this game (with the possible exception of Charr) are pretty much the vision of adonis and stereotyping males as big musclebound warriors with perfectly cut bodies or why males haven’t complained that it’s damaging to men who can’t live up to this perfect vision?

Sexism works both ways.

I agree with some of the points brought up about the Watchknight’s visage, however, some of these reasons people are pushing seems to stem from people’s personal neurosis and lack of self esteem about their image and trying to use it to bolster their argument. If it’s crushing to your psyche to not live up to what a female character (or even male for that matter) looks like in a video game, you have much bigger self issues at work.

You keep coming back to this and overstating what numbers you think you’d get, you seem to consider “the perfect situation” to be an enemy completely ungeared and just standing around like a sitting duck. Nobody is going to care what your numbers are when you’re setting up some pointless controlled test against a naked enemy, that doesn’t say anything at all that could be considered useful, nor does it help the OP in any way, shape or form, unless you’re saying that the best backstab build is against a naked enemy in perfect conditions…

Relevence my friend.

There’s definitely an issue, I’ve been playing Thief since launch and have 3 of them with different builds and I sure as hell know the timing between revealed and being able to restealth but there has been a problem with C&Ds lately with it just not acting as it should.

@Travlane Sorry bro, a couple of those were -definitely- your own fault. At one point you used the stealth you gained from steal then simply screwed up the timing between revealed and your C&D.

Saying “The video doesn’t show what happens” is kind of bunk, I fraps most of my play and the video absolutely does show what transpired at that moment. I’m not running a low end machine, I’m running a watercooled Death Star powering monster. It’s kind of like a bank raider trying to claim that the CCTV doesn’t show what really occured because of the video framerate on the camera!

Also, I’m glad I’m not the only person who roams to Drink the Sea

Well, we (SoS) had the same problem in the past matchup with the same thief you’re talking about. I think he’s just trolling the green server for some reason.

I’m sure you all do, if you didn’t want that thief to continuously contest the keep all you had to do was say something and it would be done, but you obviously either want it to continue or just can’t get your guild leaders to control their players.

Right, because someone using exploits and trolling are really going to care about what anyone regardless of who’s team their on will say to them. Don’t be ignorant, players don’t control other players, players control themselves. Stop being foolish to tarnish an entire server due to the actions of one person, if they cared about what anyone thought, they wouldn’t exploit in the first place.

Wow this morning is pretty kittenin boring.

I found a group of TC (mixed cern ep guilds) that we’re some kitten good RPers!! I’ve never seen anyone RP a walking loot bag like those chaps

Totally blew my mind

Honorable mention needs to go to you guys, I’ve never seen anyone able to do such fine RPing as Usain Bolt as Ebay, it’s simply breathtaking!

It wasn’t the war chest, it was the beer and TC Wenches that convinced WvW, Jane! Sheesh.

I stand corrected, I forgot about The Golden Yak’s Special Reserve that we’re so famed for brewing…
