Guild Wars 2

Sorry where do u see in my post that I insulted you??Unless you admit that the person I implemented in my post is you, at that level, bad and inexperience in tournament play. Read your post first, and because I think that “you” are not talking bout me, so I ignore it. Then also your post also said a few thing rude too, but since I am not, I will just gonna ignore you. Glad we both ignored each other. Phew, less headache to deal with the kind of you. If you get angry about this “you”, then I think I have done a good job. Farewell

Back to the topic.I was happy with Moa pre-patch where Casting it root the caster and Moa 5 travel distance is further.

TheMightyAltroll.3485:

Stealth.9324:

Oh not you again…

Entangle,teleport, AoE the root, problem solved.The root is not that tanky..Also, the skill is dodge able plus the animation is so obvious.
Plague form,can’t deal with it, run away from it. At least, you DO have an option to run away, plus Necro has no stun skill in that form, so easy to deal with.
Supply drop ; 1s dodge after they drop healing turret, no stun for you.Even if it did, 1 sec,stun break, problem solved.Then AOE on Net Turret to stop constant immobilise, destroy healing turret to force out the premature heal.Plus they are not that tanky, problem solved.

Now back to Moa, it block out completely of your skill, NO SKILL AT ALL,can’t stun breaker, can’t run away (you could bf but now Anet reduce the skill 5 Moa, the distance is so lame), cant dodge it too unless u have Aegis but only a few class has access to that Mesmer can stun you and burst you down in that form.What can you do?

You have no idea how this game works do you?

There is currently a glitch with Entangle that will actually make it so that you cannot escape it/attack it with autoattack effectively. If you teleport out of it, you’re wasting a teleport. If you AoE it, you’re wasting an AoE. It’s an perma immobilize that you have to physically hit to escape, or waste a skill to escape. That’s an enormous advantage.

Running away from a Necro in Plagueform = Necro wins the point. Way to go, you must not play alot of tournaments with that mind set.

Meanwhile you’re focusing turrets, you just ate about 18,000 damage in conditions from grenades. Well done.

Congratulations, it’s a single-target insta kill skill. I believe I can do something similar on my Lich form. Still has a 180 second CD though, bro.

Back to you and I believe a lot of people here in this forum will agree with me. And I am not your bro, sorry dude.

With Entangle, you can still dodge, unless ofc you are too bad to be able to dodge it on 1v1, again 1v1.In team fight sure, unable to see its coming is debatable. Now, I don’t know what glitch you are talking about but at least, even when rooted, it still leave a way to escape, whether to use it or not is up to you. While sorry Moa does not give you ANYWAY.

With Plague Form, I never said I can not deal with it. To me, it is not that hard to stay alive until the form finished. SURE it can be hard to some people like you. Now, back to run away to let the Necro cap it. OK, maybe with little tournament exp like you would say that you should not let enemy has point as all cost,even if it means your die, even if it means that leave your teammate 4vs5 in that 15s waiting for you to respawn. Well, keep it up then, If we do even run away from that form, simply we just need to keep a breath for 3s to heal up then go again for contesting. Sure by then, Necro will not be able to cap that point unless they already nearly cap it. So whether you stay and fight in that state, you still lose the cap regardless with just A Fear from Necro?? Then why fight??

Supply Crate, maybe you forget your dodge and condition removal to eat that 18k grenade dam on the face from Engine. But again, since I play Eles, the method is varies with Necro. So please ask Necro pro a way to deal with it.

Moa + shatter build, Phantasm build or in team fight, it is an instant dead skill whether u are bunker or not. IF you compare lichform as good as Moa, sorry, you are overrated your own skill just like you did with your competent.

P/s: this will me the last post regarding this matter to you. I have bad experience from you before and I don’t want to experience it again. Do as you please, I will just ignore you.

Some more runes for Eles ;

6x Superior runes of Earth
6x Superior runes of Divinity
6x Superior runes of Dolyak
6x Superior runes of Melandru
6x Superior runes of the Grove.

Even 6x Superior runes of vampirism also works too

Simple solution, find a team of people that consistent play in tPvP until this MASSIVELY MAJOR problem has been fixed.

Moa is the most OP elite skill out there among all class. This simply is a fact. We don’t want it to be buffed any further please nor any bug fix at this state for this elite skill, unless ofc there are some adjustment in play, then we can mention bug fix or buff…

He is a good Guardian. I highly recommended him in yout team

p.s You really as bad as you say

Pugs what pugs? those werent pugs.. also dont really need to be all happy over one win sir. as i recall we beaten you plenty of times…

I don’t think Asura is harder to target, they have the same size of Target Box as every other class out there. I don;t have to see what they are casting. I look for hint. For example: If a Player play Mesmer GS and he raise his sword when his health is full. You don’t need to see he actually raise his sword, all I need to see is the tip of the sword being held up, then I know IBersker coming up. Not that hard really, IF you get used to it. Play one Asura to get to know an Asura,please.

If an asura is standing in front of you in a clear area no, they’re not harder to target. Now put a tiny asura in a team fight where there are tons of spell effects, turrets, illusions, ranger pets, etc. everywhere. To click on something you have to be able to see where it is and asura just get lost in the clutter much more easily. Is it impossible to do, or game breaking or the end of the world? No. But is it balanced? No. There are 5 races in the game so players have options, if one gives a small advantage that’s a serious problem might as well turn everyone into asuras in the mists.

Would that not be the same with Mesmer Norns float all of my screen thanks to his massive size clones of himself?? Soon, people also crying about Norn for being so big and block view…

Eh???Why said bad mouth such thing? If you are not happy, simply leave, no need to left trace behind. They never said they were pro. These things can be improved in time. You can stop spreading bad rumours in these thread. Plus it is a horrible thing to do.

How about remove invulnerable effect on Blurred Frenzy?z?No more no less. My mental is prepared for flaming :P….Poor my static Shield(

Can you tell a bit more about yourself??Like playtime, role, experience, etc…

I was super serious at that time. I mean really. But you know what, when people getting serious while they are mad, they do funny thing. Agree??

Decrypt…..Roar….Let scrimmage

An Asura size complaining in tPvP being posted in an Asura home where all the Asura lover gathered. I don’t know if the guy get the mental ready for all the counters we will throw at him…

Still this is the vert first time ever in any MMORPG I have ever played that people complain about a Race for being small. I play WoW Dwaf and see no complain. Playing Tera, the tiny race with 2 ears (forget the name), not even one gamers complain about these things?? I mean srsly????

Gwalchgwn.1659:

It was your topic? I thought I read it before but can’t remember where :p

It was mine. Yup….It was like 2 months ago, when I am raged for the patch that has RtL nerf in it. I was so rage, upset that until I get crazy and do funny thing LOL

I am even more surprised than you that my post is actually being revived. Dam, I should Copyright it bf >-<. Not matter much anyway And thanks for reading. Hope you have a good laugh

^About this vid

The trait that shares auras with your allies is UTTERLY USELESS…

I tested it in WvW and it gives you the auras, plus possibly one other person if they are stood on top of you…really the 30 point trait is BROKEN…

Also just to be extra useless there is only 3 auras, 1 on main dagger, 1 on off hand dagger and 1 on staff, all on different weapons and in different attunements…

Finally, they last for a few seconds, not long enough to do much really…

Really, the only powerful part of the dagger/dagger build is the 3 cantrips/traits around them BUT of course you can use them with ANY weapon set…so why dagger/dagger? Just so you can die more often probably by being in close range, rather than at 900 or 1200 range with alternative weapon sets…

I so am NOT a dagger/dagger fan…

The video is just a basic step for anyone who is new to the Eles. And I think the Op is talking about PvP, not WvW. In WvW, you can even run a Berzerker Eles and still do fine, but it is a certain Death in PvP. The Aurashare is a strong build. “They last for a few seconds, not long enough to do much really…” is where you deadly wrong. First, you are able to give 5 allies near you Permanent Swiftness and Fury thanks to Air 1. Second, WvW is where all about AOE shine. If they AOE in your group of 5 with Frost Aura up, the frezze duration will stack up and they won’t see themselves move away anytime soon. Sure they can cleans it but that jut means you just take away one of their disposal for surviving. If not, they are the free kill your zerg. Same will apply with Static Aura, Stun duration also stack ups.

You are not a D/D fan, you don;t have to, just play what set you are comfortable with. Again, the Video is just a basic guideline to those who is Fresh New to Elementalist. It is not the fact or has to be a build that you have to force yourself upon. So just play what you feel like

Cheera.

I want ALL REGIONS can be played TOGETHER>> PRETTY PLEASE DEVS…..

Your post was like a piece of modern art. Kinda abstract, unreal and a bit misterious, but interesting and new/fresh.

Well it is nice of you. Thank you. :P. I will take it as a compliment.

Pray for the best and PLEASE DO NOT MESS UP THIS TIME, DEVS. Sry Cap

Hm.. Either I miss it or it bug out. Probably miss it, thanks for the confirm.

Does Aura Frost works if a range attack strike you? I notices there is no frost condition on them when they attack at range. But I may be wrong or it been bug for me.

Hey Team OP, may our Team, X Phantom Lord X has a scrimage with you guys? Would love to do some training during the weekend? Please let me know if you guys ok with this and I will organize the schudule. Cheers.

Hm.. A team compose solely of Thief. Sound pretty fun.Can you guys record one of the match you play? The team has to be Thief only right? I want to see it badly. Plus, I lack experience in Thief side, mind if I join you guys for a few games in dueling? Some tips and instruction should be helpful too. Thanks in advance.

Shatter Mesmer is not hard to counter. They are very squishy on 1vs1. But it becomes a real threat when a mass fight going on. With all the clones and all his mates, plus our lame changing target when rotating map, makes thing ways harder than it should have been. Sure you can target the Mesmer but when he goes into stealth, you have to re-target him again among all his clones and his mates which is pretty annoying and lose the tempo of the fight.

LoL.Yeah…Save me time to bump day by day.

While I admire your awesomeness and you are very skill player, I did not see much your actions vs another 2 Mesmer. With just one skill Blurred Frenzy, Mesmer already got Cripple, Immobilize, Teleport, Invulnerable then Burst, all of this happened can be repeated every 8s.. That ’s in my opinion too much packed in just one skill and in such a shorter CD. I play as an Elementalist, I have no trouble dealing with Mesmer 1on1 thanks all to my Stun Breaker and Condtion Cleanse, but I will get destroyed if have to deal with 2 Mesmers of Lesser Skill (not too much). With all the clones they generated, 6 clones + 2 real bodies, the dams of Phantasm, the pull from Focus, the Shatter every 10s, then Blurred Frenzy on top of everything else. Just by identify them already among all is a hard already task enough, then you have to Click on them, not to mention you can easily lose the target when they hop in stealth,also lose target when your dumb right Mouse randomly click on the Clones when u move camera, then you have to re-identify them again, how are we gonna have time to watch for Blurred Frenzy or dodge them.. It seems like impossible to me even as a Eles.

If you are fighting 2 mesmers you are not supposed to live anyway, unless you pull your A-game. Unless you’re an ele, like you said. if you’re a cantrip ele you can make 131244 mistakes and still live long enough.
And since when does blurred frenzy give all this? “Cripple, Immobilize, Teleport, Invulnerable then Burst” Oo

Sry my bad, it was skill 3 teleport + blurred frenzy.Since the Cd of both skill is similar, you can use them side by side make it really good.

@Op:

Sorry but I feel Offended when you said this :“Hybrid Elementalist: Just spam all the weapon skills on cooldown and you are an addition to the team.” Sorry man, only a New Elementalist would do that way because all of your skill has VERY HIGH CD . Once u spam them all, you are a DEAD MEAT and a nuisance to the team.

LOL that was awesome. Seconded that move. But I bet Anet gonna do anything decent on this. I mean like Really

Gosh.. My thread being drowned fast).. LOL jk.. Keep it up out there guys

Defektive.7283:

Top sought after classes:
Guardian
Elementalist
Mesmer
Engineer
Ranger

Classes that are semi-looked for but mostly gauged on the skill of the player:
Thief
Necromancer

Classes teams stay away from:
Warriors

Agree with you on most part except you put Mesmer, Engine and Ranger below Elementalist which should be the other way around. After the Nerf, Eles is not as powerful as before anymore…. I still want at least one thief in the team though. Necromancer is also good for certain map (Forest of Niffile for example). And yeah, sadly Warrior is the class most team stay away from but certainly not mine

Same as Land Stomping. Thanks for posting though. But I think they state that in SOTG that they don’t want Water Stomping is the same animation as on land because they want Drowned Player move around, not stand still and get sticked by a pole which is true. I find it funny that sometimes, we dont carry a pole and yet we use the pole as our finisher. Where is the pole com from? “O-Mighty Sky and Earth, Mark my Victory with your Judgment Pole on my Enemy Corspe”…LOL…

LOL.. I love this thread… People still complaining about D/P BS Stealth Thief right now? While all I see in tPvP right now is S/D Unstealth Thief… Trust me on this S/D is WAY more ANNOYING than D/P. And I play Elementalist. So, Blame me or discredit my opinion all you want, just because my name is misleading or I don;t play thief or whatever. LOL.

P/S: I do have a Toon thief.

Even with Valkyrie for some extra Vit, the max we can reach is just over 14k a bit. Using Soldier Amulet is even an option but u reduce your Healing Power too much.

Huh.

Don’t you guys run any water points any more? I mean, the old standard of 30 water was obviously nerfed, but… Still provides some vit.

I’ve never really liked Healing Power all that much, personally speaking, as it doesn’t seem to increase your healing by a significant amount whatsoever unless you build up the HPower really high (granted, my math may not be entirely accurate right now, as I haven’t gone too much into heals yet, but from what I have seen it doesn’t seem to do much for you, relatively speaking). However, I do suppose you could use a Soldier’s Amulet with Cleric’s Jewel (that’s what I used to run on my thief), and then grab some Healing Power with vitality from Water.

I dunno.

14k is what I already included 30 pts in Water. With no Water, your Hp is just barely pass 10k. The reason why Cleric Amulet goes very well with Eles due to the fact that Eles can pull out multiple small heals in a short span of time. For all others class, their only source of healing is just through healing skill and Regen Boons. That’s why it is not that useful. And we choose to have high healing power not because we wish to but rather we have to.Otherwise, we are just sheep feed to wolves

Even with Valkyrie for some extra Vit, the max we can reach is just over 14k a bit. Using Soldier Amulet is even an option but u reduce your Healing Power too much.

Bump for a new day.

Can I please have an opinion on Low health Disadvantage on Bunker Eles? Low Hp=> Vulnerable to Condition Dams Spam ex: HGH Engine. I emphasize on Spamming Conditions Thanks.

Bunker eles usually don’t have a lot of problems against condition builds. They have low HP but the amount of condition removal makes up for that (especially if you use S/D). The last nerf to eles helped condition builds a little bit though.

While I agree with you that Eles has a good amount of condition removal,but against the class that spam conditions every second,aka Engine, once u use up all yours options, you are very vulnerable to Conditions, like 3 mins after the fight starts.

How about remove the downed state when your underwater you just die this would be in PVP only including WVW.. You would still have it in PVE such ad honor of the waves.. Yea I like this idea way better

Ah..That is no fun

Let’s all take a moment and think of all the games that can be played online. Then think of how many games have a monthly fee and how many don’t.
Conclusion: p2p = scam, paid Custom Arena = scam

/threadwin

Let’s take a moment and think of all the games that can be played online as GUILD WARS 2. Let’s think about how many game are there ARE NOT required you to GRIND for PvP. Let’s think about how many game are there are ACTUALLY put all PvPer in their EQUAL FOOTING. Let’s think about how many game are there have a DECENT PvP aspect of the game.. Then we can talk more….

Conclusion: While Gw2 is not the best PvP game out there but certainly not the Worst. They are Free to Play and unless u expect nothing new from Anet, then they need expense to cover their business as well as to pay for their employee. THEY NEED A LIFE TOO. And they beauty of GW2 is you can LEAVE WHENEVER you want.

Raven’s Crit, yeah… Oh no, I am dead by a PET >-<….. I have no idea how to see that coming..

Jax.5261:

This is in Hotjoin, not tPvP.
It was patched out of tPvP last year, yes it was a tactic used to give players longer respawn timers.
They left it in Hotjoins so that when players die they spawn with allies and can co-ordinate slightly better, so they don’t die running in single file.
In tPvP the spawn timer was almost always 18-20seconds as people would always time their stomps to give you the longest res time, this prompted people to complain about the extra 5 seconds and sometimes that their enemies would res too fast due to them not being able to stomp at any other time.

I encountered it in tPvP, not hotjoin though. That’s weird. And talk about Res time, tonight, we 3 people down a War to 50% if his down health bar. A guardian come in and Res him to Rally in 1s O-O??? Despite all 3 of us AOE the Warrior? Is it a skill or it is a bug?
