is it why NO expansion?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

so you saying. they may not have enough fund to start the expansion project?
So if they need permission for expansion
why Aion updated so quick. new class, new map etc. did NC rater spend money on a old mmorpg then a newer one? or they spend all the money on wildstar?

i though they all independent.

because Aion is still one of the most popular games in Korea and is a game which brings the most cash for NCSoft, so they’re developing it constantly.
And to your information, NCSoft already rekt Aion on West side exactly with new classes and maps.
Why?
Imbalanced class mechanics, imbalanced stats, maps where you can pvp is as spacious as your basement.

Honestly, they could actually invest a bit more in Gw2 development and release it in korea as well.

Mesmer Moa skill

in PvP

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

It is a lame skill (overpowered if it actually hits) . It is embarrassing to use it. So I don’t. Doesn’t fit the mesmer concept or ethos. Something else in its place would be nice.

that skill is actually double edged sword.

If someone know how to move in moa form, can give mesmer hard time.

Or even put caster into downed state.

Skyhammer - The Best sPvP Map

in PvP

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

I like skyhammer. In hot joins.

I completely hate it in SoloQ. The point is that people feel frustrated by Skyhammer because you very personal “skill” doesn’t matter anymore (or it counts less than what it should).

And question now pops up.

What do we refer to term called “Skill”?

Rotation? Boon spam? Being faster than someone else with swiftness? Holding the point on full bunker mode?

In my case – no.
In my dictionary if it comes to all games, a real skill is being shown when people are capable of adapting to any environment and use it as it’s advantage – and it’s not about Skyhammer itself or Trebutchet.
In Skyhammer specifically you have to watch around yourself to not be pushed or pulled to not fall and die. No other map provides such thing.
And I myself want more such maps, since thanks to them, you can prove that you truly are good with the class you’re playing.

So its an L2P issue?

in PvP

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

OP should L2P clearly.

There are no overpowered classes or w/e else.

You make a build which work against 20 builds across all classes but it’s greatly vulnerable against one build on specific class.
Or rather it’s really difficult to fight such player.

Frankly I prefer to have a build which can easily counter 20 other builds and lose to one build which appears maybe once a week.

Should Dagger 2 work like DS 4?

in Necromancer

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

Dagger 2 Life Siphon

  1. does so-so damage at certain range
  2. gives a little bit HP
  3. channeling skill
  4. +400 armor if you’re channeling(trait)

Overall, that skill should be AoE + recover more HP, since Necro doesn’t really have much of a chance to grant itself Heal boon.
That should be fixed, because dagger is actually a close combat weapon which is risky, so should be more rewarding anyway.

If Anet don’t start releasing new content soon, there’s going to many people abandoning this sinking ship. It’s shame, GW1 had such a long run and people still play it, whereas GW2 is already dying after 2 years.

Guild Wars 1

Guild Wars: Prophecies – April 26, 2005 (6 classes, Tyria, 4 Elite Missions)

Guild Wars: Factions – April 28, 2006 (added 2 new classes, Cantha, skills, 2 Elite Missions)

Guild Wars: Nightfall – October 26, 2006 (added 2 new classes, Elona, skills, heroes, 1 Elite Mission)

Guild Wars: Eye of the North – August 28, 2007 (introduced Norns and Asurans, added new areas to Tyria, skills, new heroes, 18 dungeons)

A lot for its first 2 year and 4 months.

Guild Wars 2

where Anet did state that they’ll release new content just like they did in Gw1?

They actually should make proper match up scalling like:
- people that have Glory level between 1~5 are in the same queue
- people that have Glory level of 30+ are in the same queue

Problem is when someone creates a class he’s playing for the first time.
Should be put in 10+ queue range, but that system may be abused with creating/deleting chars of the same class to keep it in same queue range.
Would need a script which realize that if I have a Necromancer with Glory level of 30+ then a baby necro I’ll make, will end in glory level 30+ etc etc.

Shameless hackers in wvw...

I find it disgusting that we can not call out hackers on public forums. It is stupid and detrimental. Please pass that along to your manager, Forum Moderator who locks this thread.

by experience I find 80~90% of those, “he hax” to be false alarms caused by upset losers who only go ahead and would name and shame someone.

I have already seen lemmings fanboying a cheater in other game and not seeing that he’s cheating at all, but accusing and raging at other who actually didn’t cheat, but they believed he did.

Forum Mods simply lock such threads and do not allow people to post screenshots with those stuff as “proof” because it’s considered naming and shaming, and people in majority are lemmings.
They tend to repeat mindlessly one after another with having 0 knowledge regarding that matter.

Skyhammer - The Best sPvP Map

in PvP

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

Heya,

Question is:
- Does Anet work on additional/new maps for sPvP which are like Skyhammer?

I find Skyhammer map to be epic and great since it gives more freedom to how fight opponents and how to kill them, even with using enviroment.

So yes, my main point is – let’s add more Skyhammer maps to sPvP and tPvP.

Though personally I wish they’d just axe sPvP as it’s “wasting dev time”, that’s my personal take and there’ll be enough who care as little about PvE or WvW as I do about sPvP.

I lost to a Ranger

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

I agree. I mean when I was having trouble dealing with condi builds someone suggested bringing condi removal, and I was just like, ”Nah man I can just cry on the forums instead”

Condi removal will never outpace application in a small scale fight. Blow your removal and they just load you up with more. No class/build has enough removal to keep up and be effective against heavy application. Once the fight goes 2v2 or higher it can get absurd. I routinely sit in guild skirmish fights not able to do anything while 25 stacks of condi wear off. Then some necro shows up with epidemic and makes it even more fun.

your point now?

hello guys 3500 games on necro I was quite decent back in time.

It was my favourite profession in gw2. But nowadays i write to every necro after the match he should reroll another class because he is playing totaly useless class in the game.

Every single class is simply better than necro. Dont tell me condi necro is better than condi engie its not true.

Dont tell me power necro is better than mesmer its bullkitten.

And its simple you have your DS woooohah but what if 3 pple focus you? you enter DS and boom you are dead. Dead class cant help its team ;-) Trust me i rolled mesmer and engie and I never come back to necro unless they fix the class because right now its joke.

and you believe that mesmer or engineer can survive 3 people?

There is nothing to fix, except boosting this class.

If you complain about class because you got rekt by 3 people, then sorry, you’re not good enough or either they were better than you.

Does GW2 PvP require skill?

Posted by: Tao.5096

Tao.5096

Guild Wars 2 has no sub fee. It’s a game designed for casuals. There is some level of skill required to be a competent player but compared to other games of the same quality GW2 requires a very minimal amount of skill.

I recommend to go and play some other games, where majority of them create a huge gap between good gear and top gear, while involve huge rng in combat, like, who cc first, who crit more times, who proc this and that.

So far I assure you that combat in gw2 is more likely the most balanced from majority of mmo games and provide a good amount of skill and knowledge to outplay others.
Of course there will be weak players like no tomorrow, like in every game, but main factor is the ability to utilize your skills and outplay someone instead of feeding on mere RNG luck.

Imo, dodge only provides a small window of counterplay, however, I have yet to see how effective it can be when mastered.

Thanks for the comments, have a good day!

small window for inexperienced, lazy players or just bots.

Even with 0 access to Vigor, it can be a huge window for counter-play, or pure survival.
Thanks to dodge, you can simply avoid any kind of lethal attack that may decide of “kill or be killed”.
Timing is crucial and the more experience and knowledge one has, the more benefiting such a simple yet awesome ability as dodge roll becomes.

I saw s/d rangers and s/d thieves who were using evade skills along with dodge roll effectively, and despite their squishy builds, they tend to survive for a long time since they evade majority of attacks.
Obviously, there is no room for mistakes, but those people simply put their time into learning how to operate with such setups and what to pay attention to.

Some builds are called pusy types, some builds are effective against the other, but this game provides a set of skills and ability for players to create what would suit their taste and playstyle, to put everyone on the same ground.

of course that there are those people who qq constantly because, this and that is soo op and all, but I’m sure that none of them took their time to learn how to counter something like that and how to outplay it with their current setups.

I see no problem with rangers.

gw2 is semi-aim semi-target system based game.
If you expect rangers to have to aim, then it would have to be pointed to each class. Therefore the best system would be to implement aim system like in TERA.

And I’m telling you that system won’t work in gw2, since it would require reworking all skills, traits etc, to make it work.

Also, there is a dodge roll for a reason.
