i think if i wanted to rate WvW based on what i think is hardest to play to easiest hmm i would go. 1 being no skill.
0. ghost thief. LOL? we even going to talk about this one.
1. eva staff/staff( power) (only thing you worry about is landing steal you can frame trap it for 100% hit)
2. eva d/d/short bow ( con) (only thing you worry about is landing steal you can frame trap it for 100% hit(
3. d/p/ short bow (power) ( only worry about staying in stealth)
4. d/d / short bow( power) ( you have to worry about how to engage with out using any utility)
5. p/d / short bow(con ) (you have to make sure you do not put yourself out of position to get kited)
6. d/p /short bow( con) (it very easy to commit to much to 1 attack get con clear)
7. s/p / d/p ( power) ( it very easy to commit to much to 1 attack an they out tempo you in the fight)
this may not be every build in WvW this just a sample size of my view on there skill level as a my view as a thief.
i am not going to put p/p on here because i think it just not worth viewing.
Epidemic is so broken right now it’s crazy. Just stack 100% condi duration and load up a pet or an NPC with a bunch of condis and it’s over… zero counterplay.
But everybody is immune to condi anyways because of resistance.
that why meta is switching in to heavy nul field mimic play with intrup resistance stealing sigil
.
yeah it was patch out i think last month with a bunch of others.
i wouldn’t mind seeing how game changes if you gave every class just base 10k+ hp.
even if just a 1 week thing.
you guys do know unlike any other siege omega can be reflected by normal attacks ?
epic is pretty strong move in zerging nothing game breaking.
you wont kill a thief even if you reveal him lol
i can give you my spec i never lag or rarely get skill lag it has to be fights of 100 people +
I7 5930k (only importent part in build.)
2 titan black <- GW2 does not support mulity video cards (also almost no improvement over my GTX 580×2 befor i upgraded)
32GB DDR4 2666hz (ram does not matter as long it DDR3+ it good enough)
hard drive does not matter it ssd / sata 2 or 3 idk it my recording hard drive.
here a link of what my computer look like in zerg fights. i am probably avring 30 – 40 fps threw out fight well recording at 15k bit rate.
it is impossible to siege a tower if you know how to defend it shield gen can negate all wall dmg arrow cart can negate all ram dmg. in true WvW only way to push something should be to treb it clear shield gen.
siege does not share internal CD with each shield gen only lose range based on there grade = you can have 2 shield gen active at once well manning arrow cart to stop ram dmg. that just assuming only 1 person defending.

if it was kill shot it put a cross hair on your feet
anet stated they will never upgrade the sever this game was a fail design for WvW because it a DX9 game only do so much on old tech.
CPU is only thing that effective your FPS in gw2. having amazing gpu means nothing becuase this is a dx9 game
a way to dramatically incress your FPS is turn off shadows anti laising and render sample to sub sample.
If antilaising look bad to you can use sweetFX to inprove visal of the game outside of GW2 with out insane FPS drop.
IMO the Build that requires the most skill to pull off is Full Signet D/D. This is the build you run just to see
- Playerx did 6,525 Damage with Cloak And Dagger
- PlayerX did 20,525 Damage with Backstab
In your combat log.The Build has an unforgivable amount horrid weaknesses but if you land a hit on pretty much anything it will crash them to desktop. that’s just how scary seeing 20,525 damage pop up above your head is right before you die.
(I should not that amount of damage is off the top of my head based on WvW having full food, stone and banner buffs. It may be off by 1 or 2k)
say on avr it more like 12 – 15k but yeah you could get it that high if you tried hard enough.
i like s/p myself i love hitting people with pistol whip who think it easy to dodge
. but what i like most of s/p are how drawn out the fights are with out ever having to straight up disengage
i was thinking it be neat if there was a guild sign up. basically take your roaster then put it in a qu with all other guilds that want to do WvWs an then randomly set up so each sever has even numbers that last a week.
so i know first problem would be what do i do with all offline people in my guild well to solve that problem you could create a roaster of people who are going to WvW that week sign up for WvW they have to be online them self to sign up for it.
that way every week have interesting results never be on “that sever” .
anyways thoughts ?
biggest thing you should count when in that match up is dragon maw timer because you dodge threw all the other traps but dragon maw with out shadow step is gg.
i think you have wrong link posted ^^
oh i thought this was going to be a comment about using shield gen to knock people off cliffs in hills. meh they alway been used like that.
i mean on yak 1v10 a standerd fight so get good XD? or if you want a real answer do not tunnel vision maps look at it as kitten know who your fighting what time they run at. WvW may have many options in terms of gear but people very limited in gold guild group almost always run same comps just know how to fight it you will win more often
.
most groups even in T1 if you snipe a commander they will just give up lol.
I see your 18k gunflame i raise you

Nice try against Level 56.
lv58 mastery lol.. and he was a 2400 armor
I was messing with you…lol.
lol i figured as much :P
play ghost thief should be fine for your ping. does not require fast reactions like most of thief builds you can auto qu most of the build to avoid input delay get around your ping.
this is for WvW of course in pve should play whatever you want because all pve monster telegraph there plays you can get to point where you offset your dodges to your ping.
trap use to do direct dmg they where removed from traps same patch runes of the trapper came out.
But back then trapper runes where not that big of a deal becuase con where kitten in general.
But to fix the problem is not to add physical damage to traps. it lower stealth time trapper rune set. would be enough to mess the build make it a lot harder to play.
hey now no reason to get upset i just posted it as a joke i mean it not that hard to get that number O-o. im pretty sure anyone play thief for more then a day could figure it out lol.
when this game came out anet view on WvW was it never meant to be balanced guild stacking was meant to be unfair just saying
.
they probably got removed because of the ele bug i wont go detail of it basically you gain the effect of +4 conjure effect at once with out having to hold the weapon.
I see your 18k gunflame i raise you

Yes instant cast scripon wire anet plz ! one time
only part of that build that really kill people is confusion from steal. not death blossom.
that neat i did not know of eva frames on it i just did it becuase it look cool
only WvW upgrade that pay to win is dragon banner.
it be kinda cool if they made shadow trap an aoe port allies with you to the target in stealth : )
just to show i was just messing around with my guildie

vault can instant kill someone LOL? you easly hit 30k maybe try hard to 40k in WvW
escapist absolution and trickster you have all the con removal in the world.
for con i normally run withdraw remove 5 con with trickster on every 14 seconds.
shadow step remove 2 con on shadow return
other can be whatever you want but i would take needle trap and impact strike
mainly take impact strike because it carry in 1vx fights.
jade > yak > jade > yak XD
it would be cool if thief had a way to break there dodge with F3 mech for some sorta dmg move or shadow step.
topic between the 2 is a joke? do i want more rewards ? or do i care who i fight.
i am fine with cannons there range just need to be nerf by 50% and it would be fine
i enjoy seeing the WvW i do nothing with spvp myself i would not even watch it other wise it was neat seeing your style it much more passive then myself.
bloodstone fen count as personal story 3 not hot maps
i really think that utility is only strong on weapon set that do not have many sources to CC mech like s/d or p/d may even be cool on short bow some how
would be neat to see how anet goes at it : )
i found only real reason to run that skill is if you want to make a strange S/D build
but that the main reason it not used because it CD just to high .
want to learn how to be a good commander join yak most of the guild on yak are small groups that work off one another to deal with large zergs.
Oh i see i had a guildie doing it as well i thought i missing some tech haha ironically i used it to intrup him more LOL xD.
