With all due respect but….currently turret engi of all engi build, it is the easier to fight and win against, so much easier that I’d rather fight 2-3 turret engi in enemy team than a single rabid or cele rifle engi spamming grenades/bombs + slick shoes

Glass staff elementalist player checking in. What is a turret engineer?…

Oh, that corpse down there? Those scattered bits of metal must have been their turrets.

Please, continue playing turret engineer and feeding me free wins.

Really you will be feeding the enemy team with free kills…unless the enemy is entirely made of players who bought the game yesterday and have never played a MMO in their entire life

No it doesn’t! trust me, what you’re experiencing is unfortunately the norm in GW2 , for this reason I warmly suggest you to stop queuing as solo player.
If you haven’t got at least a friend to team up with..do not bother with unranked, let alone ranked, stick to hotjoin, wvw.

Save yourself plenty of frustation and listen to my suggestions, gl.

To answer the question in the title – why not?
If you go for team optimalization there are of course “ideal” picks, but these are not set in stone…

If you want to play Burst Ele, then adjust your comp to it!

Solo play is of course another story… Not too long ago I made a thread in which we deducted that playing it safe will just guarantee you more victories

I know someone who has literally been playing Burst Staff Ele for years… Despite it being far from the best builds out there and the advantages other spike classes have, he does an amazing job… If you catch someone, or multiple people too occupied to notice you, you can easily do some serious spike damage, with little room to recover for the enemy… Downside? Well, it relies on the surprise factor and extreme peeling from the team

So yea… It is possible, but you need to have people with a certain mindset to pull it off… In soloplay, there are a lot more builds that suffer aside from Spike Eles, though Fresh Air comes close to viable

That’s the problem!
What if you haven’t got an ESL level team to play with? Then you simply can’t even try a fresh air ele as solo player.

You become a viability for your team, you get focused down by all enemy team and you have not a single reliable way to deal with focus fire, but hey “attention here”.
I’m not asking to face tank dmg and deal burst at the same time, I’m just asking for some decent way to stay alive like other professions in the same role.

-an aoe knockback?
-an aoe weakness?
-a retreat/roll back?

Anything that doesn’t sit at over 20s CD really; all other professions covering the same burst role have reliable defense skills sitting within the 20s CD treshold and this is what I call “standard of viability” as burst

In the end what i can possibly hope to achieve when i get camped by a stealthed thief,a a mesmer crippling, bursting from distance or an engi and its trillion conditions.

I have no stealth or portals, just a huge CD invulnerability and few dodges, teleporting at 900 range means nothing against a thief…‘cause he can chase you anywhere and mesmer can simply spawn a phantasm close to where you may try to escape…and let’s not forget med guardians or lb rangers hitting from over 1500 range…..it’s a nightmare

You mean how DoD almost won a place in WTS with an S/F ele? C’mon man, burst ele is viable. You can’t ask for buffs on this crap when you can just abuse z-axis teleport, an invuln every 45 seconds, and have the best burst in the game with the “apparent” phoenix bug where it hits 7 times.

That’s just not good mayne.

Pls do explain me how an invulnerability on 50s CD will help you to stay alive for any decent amount of time against any of the current meta build.
- when your target can access stealth every 2s or so
- can teleport safely behind a pillar, re-writing the game physic
- can block all dmg and heal at same time

…all accessible with skills sporting a far smaller CD

Then you mention that I can “abuse” a 40s Cd teleport which does not defy the game physic when other profession got the same thing at the same range ( but that can defy the game physic) ….at less than a 1/4 the CD

Supreme.3164

Taking in consideration the standards of viability in GW2, s/f fresh air is simply not viable

You will spend 3/4 of the time trying to stay alive, because all your defenses are linked to absurdly high CD skills/utilities, lack of reliable escapes, add the incapability to bypass the basic defenses of some professions in an effective and practical way.

I tried dozen of fresh air builds, none offer the same level of results displayed by other professions in the same role.

But ty for your suggestion

Honest question to the devs : why am I not allowed to play the profession I love in the way I want?

You tell me that I can play the way I want…but it appears that I can’t, you gave such distinct and obvious advantages to “some” professions that every fight against them becomes an uphill struggle for survival…let alone being able to be useful to your team.

Now I won’t be sitting here listing the professions I’m talking about or the advantages they hold respect to other for a given role, because I’m not interested in any inflammatory and biased comment.

Moving on, let’s consider your balance approach to this game, particularly the elementalist

You can’t keep balancing this profession asking the player to always invest 20-30 trait points in water to play the profession at all

Just why are you so hell bent in forcing specific traitlines on a profession?
-Water/arcana or get the hell out of pvp- This what it means to play an ele in gw2 and on top of that you gave them possibly the only burst ranged weapon in the entire game..without a single way to keep enemies at range

Now after this wall of text ( I needed it to vent my frustation ), allow me to “refine” my question:

Will ele get a decent burst role with the upcoming expansion?

I won’t play the same water/arcana build for another 2 years, simple as that; and if the datamined sword set proves to be true…then yes, in that case it’ll be time for me to go.

I was initially excited about the “sword leak”..then I realized that I’m sick of the battlemage concept and I simply want to play the gw2 ele like as it was in gw1: a ranged caster dealing with the elements.

I’d really love an answer from the devs and I hope my wall of text was not “too” much to digest, I’m really not trying to offend anybody, I’m just irritated at the state this profession has been reduced : a boring glorified healing bot, a far cry from the invoke air spike ele of GW1

Premade farming unranked

Posted by: Supreme.3164

Supreme.3164

I know people from my guild que unranked as pre made to learn pvp. Often is a case where 2-3 new players wants to learn pvp and they gp with 1-2 pvpers and learn the ropes in unranked. Just my 2c.

That’s not my case, I get teams with well known names that just go unranked for an easy win; they use optimized builds and strategic rotations to quickly overwhelm the unfortunate pug team….most of these teams will even troll you in the end

There is just this much you can do as pug vs an organized team, sometimes you get lucky and get pugs that listen….but the majority of times, the pugs you get will simply ignore everything even if you beg them:
Ex.You ask help from a thief…he’ll ignore you and keep charging the turret engi sitting on far..for all match

Honestly, full premades that do unranked are either really bad and realize it or are a group of PvE’rs/casual friends who don’t take the game seriously.

Either way, most of the time full premades in unranked are terribad and can be easily beaten by pug groups.. Don’t be intimidated by them.

A group of PvErs who don’t take the game seriously…don’t need to go unranked as they don’t feel the urge to increase by 100% their chances of victory.
No we both know that those premade in unranked are made up by losers who haven’t got the stomach ..or skill to face a real team….a real team doesn’t go out their way to insult the enemy with trollish comments, especially if the enemy team is made up of pugs

Supreme.3164

Not really new meta since it has it’s own drawbacks, however, I thoroughly enjoy playing S/F fresh air build now a days. People normally don’t expect burst damage from ele and hence, we get the advantage out of it. Here is a match I had recorded a couple of week ago:

The advantage is short lived and not really worth it, you have less dmg and sustain than a med guardian while requiring 5x the effort

Why increase CD?

We’re talking about eles going 30 in earth in order to maintain the benefits of the signet with Written in stone.

Furthermore it’s a single condition removal for signet in a game where some professions can apply 3/4 condis with the auto-attack, you then lose all the benefits of cantrips…no way this trait would be OP with the suggested change

Will it ever end?
I would not bother with a thread if a dev could give me a sincere answer, I don’t see why a premade is even allowed in unranked. This mode was made for people who don’t want to go ranked without a team and for people who are learning the game.

So give a good reason why a try hard premade with 3/4 bunkers and 1/2 burst are allowed in unranked.

Every game the same, I get double ranger, GS warrior or some other crap and I’m forced to go against double engi or double med guardian, thief+mesmer , an ele or shout warrior….try hard teams that go unranked with TS.

And before some white knight comes here and try to belittle me : YES I do check if the enemy team is premade by scrolling over their name

Every day, it’s the same freaking story.
If you like teams that much and want people to only join with a team why do you even implement a solo player option?

P.S One double standard service, you place a reward limit in hotjoin and then allow premades to join unranked and win 7/10 on average respect to solopugs who at most win 2 times out of 10…so much for anti-farming policy

Posted by: Supreme.3164

Supreme.3164

Well because it seems that you’re comparing it to d/d if not then my bad.
Either way, the build is very good, a different playstyle respect to d/d and I love it.

This build shine in team comp that either have massive aoe spike with decent sustain( 2x power necro+engi or team with huge sustain where you can become even more aggressive)

Definitely a joy to run this build, sure there quite few hard counters out there if you don’t play wisely but as a get int/get out style, this build offers all you need

I’m using rune of earth with this build and I simply love this rune set

p.s watch for terrormancers, rabid engies and power lock mesmers, if taken lightly these builds can prove to be fatal

[PvP] Ember hybrid signet d/f

in Elementalist

Posted by: Supreme.3164

Supreme.3164

Immobilization is strong when it is stacked multiple time against one target. In this case, D/D cele has far more than enough sustain to escape the burst coming after and S/F fresh air has enough range to stay away from the fray. Both builds also invest some points in either Arcana or Water to improve their condi cleanse potential. Meanwhile, D/F signet hybrid, especially the 62600, is very susceptible to immobilization and burst during team fight.

Both of the cons I have mentioned are expert at catching-up, pin-down and burst type of classes. They have strong condi cleanse and/or good sustain in general. Their CC is very spammable, they have frequent blocks, their burst crit and we don’t have regen to counter their passive burning/condi ticks.

In all fairness, I have no troubles counter condi ranger, condi engi and to some extend condi necro in 1v1. I simply just kill them before condi becomes an issue. However, condi stacking in team fight is far too great for the cleansing capacity of this build and team fight is where this build contributes the least.

Crowd control, in the other hand, is the biggest counter in 1v1 and 1v2.

This build is not meant to be a point holder like d/d, this is a “burst” build similar to the med guardian but ele style , you need to get in and get out, the dmg is there and so it’s the sustain.

I believe that’s what the creator really think

[PvP] Ember hybrid signet d/f

Posted by: Supreme.3164

Supreme.3164

I do run the 4/0/6/4/0 version with d/f.
Your cons are somehow justified because in the end of the day strong immobilization it’s the bane of every ele build.

In the hammer guardian and celestial rifle build case, I believe that the condi dmg output it’s not tremendous so the protection upkeep should help a lot in that case, furthermore there is enough condi removal to deal with a single hammer guardian, possibly the things get worst against good cele engi

But I still think that heavy condi application is the biggest counter to this build and both the builds you mention do not focus on condi dmg, in this case I believe that player skill counts the most

This build is currently listed as still in testing phase on metawiki.

Made by cgsn ( dunno forum name), tried for myself for few days now, I have applied few changes and I have to say that the build is rather fun to use, I can’t really gauge the full potential of the build but so far it fare kk in team fights and 1vs1 situations.

http://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Elementalist_-_Ember_Hybrid_Signet_D/F

The one below is the version that I run:

http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fFAQJAodhcMabW3wvBd0AHACxp/CGYw4b12B-TJRHwAe2fYwJAAwDA4YZAA

(my) PRO

-pack quite a punch both as condi and direct dmg
-can be very strong in a 1vs1 scenario vs power builds : med guardian, all thieves, mesmer, power necro and d/d eles
-decent self sustain, nothing crazy like d/d but the defense against direct dmg alone is the real deal

(my) CONS

-Can potentially be hard countered by full condi builds ( terrormancer )
-No great escapes, requires a good deal of map awareness

The build has potential but what do you guys think?

leaderboard paradoxon

in PvP

Posted by: Supreme.3164

Supreme.3164

Not really.

If you run full premades you shouldn’t be rewarded the same as someone who solo queues point wise.

What is the argumentation behind that?

How can a solo player reach the same winrate as someone who only queues with premades? It’s very difficult to do so when you can’t influence what people you get on your team, your team composition and you have no voice communication. And such solo players face premades that just farm them. Obviously not all but not separating solo and team queue will always have to be reflected somewhere.

No it shouldnt be reflected anywhere. In order for teams to form you need to encourage making premades. And i say this as someone who has mainly solo and duo queued the whole of gw2. Or if i premade its without ts, without a comp etc. And i still understand why people who play in premades should be rated at the top. The health of the game depends on it

The health of the game is already jeopardized when premades reach the top by farming pugs, in a perfect system a premade would only face other premades with the top positions as a prize.

Right now a premade made up of top 100 players ( I’m simply considering the leaderboard position) will face pugs coming from the 80-90% percentile instead than facing other “top” premades.

This is why you always see the same 8-10 teams during the ESL cup with the same 20 players who switch team.

If they don’t want to separate solo and teams, then they should make so that teams always face teams and stay in the top position

Let’s say all premades occupy the top 500 positions, then the remaining 500 would be occupied by soloers and those who want to reach higher would have to create another premade.

Out of all premades in the top 100, you are bound to find 2-3 teams able to compete in ES, meanwhile the soloers ,those who don’t reach the top 500 positions, are happy because they can have decent matches with players of their same MMR

I simply can’t win a single game, the majority of my games are complete blowout and always against premades, it’s extremely rare for me to face a pug team.

Tried most meta builds: shout warrior, hambow, LB ranger, survival ranger, d/d cele ele, double kit engi, turret engi, bunker guardian, staff ele cleric-celestial, s/d thief

Tried to hold points against multiple opponents for as long as possible and create superiority elsewhere…

Tried to back cap, tried to roam, tried to support team with hard ress-healing-condi removal, tried to peel for others, tried to burst as fast as I could…nothing of what I do matters.

At this point, I know that many people will start shouting" you’re the noob, the team lose ‘cause of you" and I say :"fair enough I’m a noob and I expect to have the lowest possible MMR in the game"

So I’m the worst player in the game, I lose 9 games out of 10…..and still face organized premades? Maybe somebody can clarify how the system works, because if I’m the worst player in the game I should not be facing premades, high MMR players all day long…

I believe that every legendary weapon deserve the same level of graphic effects, we all pay the same for the gift of might and gift of fortune so I believe that there is no reason to treat some legendary differently from other.

The Minstrel lack :

-Foot print
-Aura effects
-Sound animations

Those are the things that every minstrel owner fervently desire and personally I would “kill” for a change of dye on the minstrel , the avocado skin tone is not really a favourite, for instance a gold/redemption/illumination dye would simply be perfect.

Let’s hope for the best

Off-hands having footfalls is absurd, I wish people would stop suggesting it. It would be a waste of time and resources.

Not everybody can equip a greatsword or staff, sword or dagger…but we still pay the same for gift of might and gift of fortune if we can’t have the same “candies” as you..then why focus wielders must pay the same as you?

^ then stop running to far from the start of the game then fighting off point constantly killing the beasts at the start of a match leaving a 3v4 at mid on foe fire… that should be the only reason people start to get angry at you.

oh and that one guy that keeps suiciding into a turret engie who holds the point till his friend turns up and ganks them…

Dude, it’s a game that comes with a learning curve, and that’s exactly what’s fun about it. You never suicided to a turret engi when you were new? Sure, you can tell them, without insulting them, via map chat, what strategy you think is best (and should do so). You can be annoyed to get bad players in your team. But why insult bad players? You’re harmful to the community. PvE players always complain that insults and bad sportsmanship drive people away from PvP: well the matchmaking will not get better any time soon if people are discouraged to learn and progress by comments of the type “go back to PvE/WvW zerg”. I don’t get why you feel the need to belittle these players. Ask yourself that question the next time you get angry.

The majority of bad players simply don’t care to learn and this is not something I’m stating, this is something these bad players constantly say…yah the matchmaking won’t change anything…ever

You cannot make such a statement unless you believe bad players are a homogeneous group of people who all decided to not bother learning. Your statement would only be true for a specific individual and it takes more than a match to be better. It takes a while to learn your build enough to play against others and it takes a while to learn the mechanics enough to not the low tier mistake.

The problem is the people who can teach them example like you, get easily frustrated (which is within your right) and blame the new people instead of Arenanet for grouping them with you. Obviously this could have been avoided by simply forming a team, but I digress. The point being it is Arenanet’s fault not the pugs and if a good player was being a kitten to me, I know I would make sure to undermine them really really badly.

Unfortunately this is not a single experience, the majority of bad players will answer back with extreme attitude even when politely asked to stop doing something in particular

-Me : " ok guys we lost mid, let’s regroup first, hold close"
- Bad player: ……
-Me : “ok pls don’t go mid , you’re alone vs 3 people”
- bad player: ….( keeps going mid )
- Me: " omfg dude, you left again the close holder alone vs 2/3 enemies"
- Bad player :" kitten I know what I’m doing, I’m holding them and buying you guys time"

and it begins…

( This is not 100% accurate as situation, just want to illustrate the kind of players..I consider bad players with attitude that deserve insults )

Well, I’m not sure I must argue about personal skill with someone who thinks thieves are broken because of perms-stealth-spam, but I’ll give it a try.

Just to give you a little bit of perspective on the subject: how did the good players become good? That’s right, nobody is a top player from day one. Sure, some people experience different difficulties at different steps on the learning curve, but somehow, a lot of players have reached a level of understanding that allows us to regularly have fun games with people that somewhat know what they are doing (at least they don’t focus on the bosses, to have really low expectations). So saying “bad players don’t care to learn” is obviously false in many cases.

But what if this one guy on my team REALLY doesn’t want to learn? What do I do? At this point I am forced to send him salty whispers, right? No! Why people? Why do you feel the need to insult bad players? It won’t make you win, it won’t make you play better, and according to you it won’t even help them to get better, since they are supposedly incapable of doing so! It’s ok to get angry. But next time you feel so angry you feel the need to insult another player, ask yourself if you’re not taking a GAME too seriously.

Some crazy people are still playing GW2 for fun.

You have no right to decide what fun and what’s not!

The concept of fun varies from person to person, some like to farm mats, some like to speed run dungeons, some like to do jump puzzles..and some like to play PvP in a competitive way, that’s not to say people want to win always, but a decent match when you lose only to superior understanding of the game…that’s what the majority of pvpers want.

If you don’t want to adhere to same rules as others, if you don’t care of winning, if you are not trying your hardest…why do you leave hot-join?

Sure, nobody can stop you from joining unranked/ranked but if you come with the wrong attitude hen..you deserve every possible insult ( some insults like the OP received are clearly out of line and should be punished with no restriction)

A bad players who try his hardest, will contribute the most to the match and will make the experience an enjoyable one

By contrast…

A bad player who shows attitude, only brings out the worst from people, as such he deserves a very harsh treatment….because he’s there with the clear intention of ruining other people’s fun with no excuse

If you feel entitled to join what considered to be a “serious” match, simply because you’ve bought the game and don’t care the least about what other people consider “fun”….then be ready to receive what you deserve.

Clearly as I have already stated, there is a limit to what you can say to people and in no way I condone the people who insulted the OP

^ then stop running to far from the start of the game then fighting off point constantly killing the beasts at the start of a match leaving a 3v4 at mid on foe fire… that should be the only reason people start to get angry at you.

oh and that one guy that keeps suiciding into a turret engie who holds the point till his friend turns up and ganks them…

Dude, it’s a game that comes with a learning curve, and that’s exactly what’s fun about it. You never suicided to a turret engi when you were new? Sure, you can tell them, without insulting them, via map chat, what strategy you think is best (and should do so). You can be annoyed to get bad players in your team. But why insult bad players? You’re harmful to the community. PvE players always complain that insults and bad sportsmanship drive people away from PvP: well the matchmaking will not get better any time soon if people are discouraged to learn and progress by comments of the type “go back to PvE/WvW zerg”. I don’t get why you feel the need to belittle these players. Ask yourself that question the next time you get angry.

The majority of bad players simply don’t care to learn and this is not something I’m stating, this is something these bad players constantly say…yah the matchmaking won’t change anything…ever

Can we please do something for the Minstrel?

I believe that every legendary weapon deserve the same level of graphic effects, we all pay the same for the gift of might and gift of fortune so I believe that there is no reason to treat some legendary differently from other.

The Minstrel lack :

-Foot print
-Aura effects
-Sound animations

Those are the things that every minstrel owner fervently desire and personally I would “kill” for a change of dye on the minstrel , the avocado skin tone is not really a favourite, for instance a gold/redemption/illumination dye would simply be perfect.

Let’s hope for the best

The worst daily profession

in PvP

…It’s without doubt : daily guardian

No matter what you do, no matter what I play ( ranger, ele, warrior, engi, thief as my mains ), my team which includes always a couple of meditation guardians…will wipe in 4s average, no matter how much I heal ( ele support build, ditched bruiser to support team as much as I could…); no matter how much I burst enemies down ( LB power ranger 6/6/2/0/0 or s/d thief) because my team will just die and rally enemies; no matter how much I aoe the point ( cele engi or turret engi).

My dear devs, the daily profession is possibly the worst idea that I ever seen being implemented in a MMO, I can’t even imagine how much the PvP scene would improve ….by removing this daily profession.

I pray that you’ll soon come to your senses and remove this atrocity with a hot-fix
