Guild Wars 2

I kinda hope they just drain every lake and body of water. All will be accessible then by running and without dealing with underwater combat

I saw something from an anet dev a while ago the sword auto attack works as intended so nothing will be fixed as this is how they want it to work.

Me personally I use a dagger so I have 3 skills that work as an evade sense I can not dodge.

I sure hope not. Stealth for the most part is a rather annoying mechanic. We don’t need dps classes with heavy armor running around in stealth now to

I would link weapons to legends. While some legends may work better with some weapons than others let me choose the setup for each legen (which it looks like you can do with skills?) and if I want another weapon hop to a different legend.

This ^.

The current lack of weapon swap means the rev has a real problem going from melee to ranged.

Having the legends effect weapon skills could greatly reduce that problem and add a bit more quality to the class.

Unless we want to roll only ventari and staff to live and spend 10 minutes on each enemy of course

Hello fellow gw2 players. I had a question and based on feedback from this post and reply I really hope anet sees it and gives it some thought before release.

The short question is…..would you rather have only one weapon equipped and be able to change between the legends as is normally like now? Or link weapon sets to a legend? That way the “legend swap” also acts as a weapon swap as well.

I do realize 2 legends have yet to be revealed. However in my 3 years of playing this game I have learned it is very very important to have both a ranged and melee weapon. There are way to many fights, and boss instances in the story where melee simply won’t work on every fight. If we enter this fight in melee our only options are tin away to swap to hammer, or if in personal story quit, get range, and have to do the whole thing over again. I think this class will be the most useless class in the game if it can not participate in each battle fairly like the other classes.

I’m very curious as to why it bothers you? It’s just a log in screen and has no effect of the look in game.

Well you answered your own question lol. It’s a ghost ship. Most likely haunted! Maybe a dev put in there to spook people

As much as I agree I will have to disagree.

Have you ever played final fantasy 14?

I’ll sum it up in gw2 lingo. Imagine there is a very hard dragon, I mean hard, half the times it kills everyone then dissappears if it isn’t killed fast enough. And has very unique rewards for killing x amount of time.

Now imagine this dragon only spawns once a week, in a random location. Each race zone gives you hints though it’s spawned (like in ff14 the entire zone and surrounding zones become super foggy) then everyone gathers together looking to slay it.

Ok I will admit it was a blast killing Odin in ff14. But ff14 always had end game content with dungeons and gear treadmill and things to do. In this game I usually end up logging in, bored, not much to do so it’s really nice for me to just check what bosses I can go and run and have fun with and still get some rewards. I love how ff14 did it, but in gw2 I really do think we (boss farmers) would be so bored of this game and quit if we have nothing for sure to do upon logging in.

I’m personally going to use my shadow greatsword or fellblade

Explore the starter zones to level 20 or 30 at least, then crafting about 3 crafts to 300 which is about 22 levels. Then go do wvw.

I think shrio dps is going to be very good still. Everything else was support mainly and some utility

I simply won’t play revenant because the no weapon swap. There are way to many instances in this game where you need to switch back and forth. I don’t want to use just a hammer at all times only because you need ranged for a lot of fights.

Revenant is a necromancer in heavy armor. Leave the dps alone. Necromancer deserves a buff first

But in all honesty shrio legend wasn’t playable. The weapons and legends used are not made for dps

DevilLordLaser.8619:

WTB people not making release date threads for a while.

Seriously, guys.

Seriously.

SERIOUSLY.

It’ll release when it releases. Knowing when that date is ahead of time does not actually change when said date will be. Cool. Thine. Jimmies. Asking a hundred thousand million billion trillion gazillion times an hour doesn’t actually do anyone a single dang bit of good.

It’s just the fact that they announced the game such a long time ago, are selling preorders, and we still got nothing. I’ve never heard of this long a wait to release just an expansion before after reveal

Just make a revenant sub forum already please

I really don’t see the point.

This is the only mmo I’ve ever played where I really like people around actually

I love my necro a lot in open world pve. Just think dagger auto needs a buff then they will be all set actually. I hope greatsword fixes our poor auto attack dmg

I don’t want to sound rude or like a jerk but don’t know how else to say it.

Warrior simply is the easiest class to do well with, people who say it isn’t are trying to defend there class as a hard to play character. But simply put you can do great damage without trying with axe or greatsword. Heavy armor high health. Be warned though, it’s so easy they get Rayner boring to play

Does not look like chill will do much damage or stack, I’m thinking power reaper will be the best choice.

Thanks a bunch think I might just have to do that

So as long as I beat story mode for the dungeon I can just jump into unranked random games? Nothing special I need to select or anything its just automatic if I beat the story mode?

So I’m currently trying to get inquest legs for my necromancer and having a hard time getting into dungeons. Someone recommend I just do pvp to get the legs for the shards.

I was not aware I could get dungeon armor from pvp. Can someone please explain this to me as I’d really like to give this a try even though I’m not a huge pvp fan.

Has anyone tried rampagers armor in open world pve with dagger? I was wondering if I should get a set with scholar runes and zerker accessories. With barbed precession and fear the weak trait lines would this maybe do a little more damage?

Map completion and leveling power dagger necro

Dungeons. Wear a costume pretend to be a warrior

World Boss axe I go with usually with my power build

I truthfully like to think reaper will fix some issues. Greatsword might actually do some reliable melee damage with a power build I really hope better then dagger. Plus the new reaper shroud looks like it may do some actual dps that isn’t used mainly as a survival mechanic but actually wanting to use it in fights for pve

Does not bother me. If that’s what they want to do so be it

Khristophoros.7194:

I said I don’t want the copper fed kit. Stop telling me to buy it. If you are only here to tell me to buy it just go away.

YOU asked for a solution. This is the answer.

If I weighed 500 lbs and ate McDonald’s for breakfast lunch and dinner and said I want no solutions that involve me not eating McDonald’s to lose weight the issue won’t be resolved.

Buy one or deal with it. Sorry to sound rude but don’t be stubborn.

I will admit the expansion was announced so long ago and the amount of info they still need to go over I don’t see it coming out till December

Azure.8670:

Open world pve necro is amazing wtf. Drop wells and move forward everything dies

But then when you run forward into enemies you don’t do much damage with your well on cooldown

I thought the personal story was just fine. Each race having its own story and the 3 orders I enjoyed a lot.

As far as rewards go I think they give plenty. I do story in an mmo for the story not rewards. Personally the cutscenes where they just talk are fine, I think your looking for more of a single player rpg type game story in an mmo.

They stated reaper shroud would now restore health health. But we won’t get that til HoT

Thief.5186:

I honestly dont see the problem with necro damage in pve

The problem isn’t that it’s bad, simply very very low compared to others. Yes wells provide great burst but we don’t have good sustained damage at all. Guardian sword auto attack beats our damage with dagger power build and well even. I do hope the greatsword really makes us do some decent melee damage

nekretaal.6485:

Arche.7326:

From a balance perspective the Reaper pretty much has to do more damage in melee than any other class, but that is going to make people in low tier pvp and wvw complain, so it wont happen.

Basically this.

Does make sense. We are supposed to be reapers not awesome looking teddy bears

Ok I have a serious question and was looking for some thoughts before I level my necromancer any more.

I’m strictly a pve player minus dungeons. I was curious if you think the reaper using gs and the new shroud will actual make open world pve a little better for us? Right now I have to say my damage is a little sad compared to other classes, but I really hope this gs if traited right will finally help our damage be a little better. The shroud looks really good and gs 1 and 2 skill I hope can bring in a lot of damage as well. Do you think we can finally dish out the same kind of damage as say a warrior or guardian in there current state? Or are they going to never give us the love we deserve

Sadly no. As the key you would have would link them both together it would not be possible.

Yes and no.

I do like the idea that’s not an issue at all. But this game has an issue gw1 did not. Solo in an open world can be impossible making it not fair to people who play at night, or when the map eventually dies it just becomes a ghost town.

Gw1 we had heroes and henchmen at all times.

I hope something. Haven’t been getting our specizalations fix we need

I would really like my fellblade on my reaper

I would actually have fun with this and see myself doing it daily.

Someone has to have an opinion

In this game I mostly do just story, map completion, and world bosses no dungeons. Is this something a necro can do well in compared to other classes? I am using power necro now for dmg, and not sure what ranged weapon to use yet for world bosses tips there would be nice.

Mostly getting ready for reaper as I think greatsword and the new reaper shroud will end up being better then dagger necro or so I hope. Was trying to gather others thoughts before I start leveling to seriously

Was this before Tuesdays update? Traits no longer grant stats, so if you were maxed in blood magic with no vitality gear that means you lost 300 vitality.

If that’s not the case I have no idea.

Most people seem to hate it. I personally have no issues with it and enjoy it a bit more.

World bosses simply need buffed. If you nerf condition anymore will just cause it to be useless on everything but world bosses

The change was less then 24 hours ago. Your not late lol

I see the logic considering it leads straight into HoT.

The one and only reason though I see this as a bad idea is we would get a million posts complaining “us whiny vets expect more free stuff!”

Sure I unlocked them all free except for one story I had to buy. But I’m sure they will have a really cheap sale before launch and after launch for season 2

When I loaded up the map I was in awe. It looks incredible and like a place I’d love to visit in real life and go vacation at

Doesn’t feel like lions arch at all though. Will take some getting used to for sure

Ok so you prefer the chances be much higher and everyone succeeds? A gamble, only of YOU do it. It’s your choice. Ever try an mmo with no rng in it? Guess what everyone has everything in one day and quits. My only rage is people who complain about it

Thank you everyone

Before saying read this read that and sending me 500 links I have read, but I have a hard time processing information at times so I hope someone can break it down for me please.

I understand come tomorrow there will be no more skill points and we will now have spirit shards. What do I do with these spirit shards?

I also understand at level 80 now we unlock all skills and traits. So basically tomorrow when I log in tomorrow and go to my traits I can do everything and it’s all unlocked or am I going to have to do something special for my traits to be unlocked?

Thank you very much to anyone who can assist, I want to make sure I’m understanding things correctly before I log in tomorrow.
