Guild Wars 2

Twinny.9304:

had fun on EB last night, FR had a treb on a tricky spot on the rock SM side of klovan taking out our treb there and we were slightly outmanned and trapped in the tower i hit their treb twice with mortar before they took it out, mapped to keep ran to WC and ran over on my own to take out their treb. We got into SM a few mins later not enough of us to make a difference so we done our main objective and arrow carted their 3rd floor treb and one of the guys dropped a box of fun inside SM and FR didnt wanna have fun so they wiped us 10mins later lol

Regards from the Norn Guardian in white armour(aka the little golem in this pic), who weren’t going down without a fight lol

You need to pay fee since I’m on that picture :p.. And yes, wxas so funny, we all changed and ran around hostile SM as animals haha, did enjoy it although FR wasn’t laughing and just killed us :c…

Bones.5762:

you get wxp for repair gates/walls, it worked for me at least, i havent tried the other yet.

Probly just a bug then..
Although, have to change my whole build since they nerved ele’s healing while mist form though.. Was only thing that kept me going in fights..:c

“•Siege weapons provide World XP when destroyed.
•Siege weapons placed by Commander Siegerazer and Commander Siegecrusher now provide XP and World XP when destroyed.
•Players now receive World XP for repairing gates and walls in WvW.
•Players now receive World XP for defending supply dolyaks from ambushes in WvW.”

Does not work.
We don’t get any wxp from the things mentioned above

You should feel ashamed about what u did this night to FSP!

Making mutliple Omega Golems to attack our keep is one thing, but spawncamping at our only spawnpoint when Keep is under attack by you, is rly discraceful! You guys were 10 on 1 and still needed to spawncamp?? Waiting with +20 at our only spawnpoint when we were with.. Idk 15 max and having +30 at our keep with those Golems?

I mean, we almost didn’t had the chance to defend ourselves (since we couldn’t reach our keep no more) BUT we still kicked your kitten and laughed rly hard later on.. But you rly stressed me out since I’m a new commander but take note; I learned alot about your way of working and tell this to all commanders so better be rdy for the more better commanders of our server.. So u can loose for a second time in a row

Really, u should crawl back from where u came from since u lost all our golems and ran away and loose to a 15 grp with your +50 zerg + omega golems..

Many ppl of our server are rly kitten off and.. U made yourself a new target, be sure about that.. U guys were already last place this week, we’ll make sure u end up there again, no matter what!
You have my word, spawncampers.. Go play CoD or something..

Sincerely,

Commander Denied Goddess (FSP)

Here’s mine in WvW

So does that campfire and a karma ooster 50% stack?:p If so, might have enough karma then x)

EDIT: nvm,they can’t stack, searched for it… :’(

Karizee.8076:

Not sure about CoFpie, I never look at karma rewards anymore.
The buffs do stack – that I can confirm.

Maybe I’ll sound noob now but.. Is there a difference between guild buff and banner? Thought they were the same ..:(

Karizee.8076:

High level dynamic events are the fastest way, you can generally find some areas in Cursed Shore that have lots of events.

Make sure when using your karma jugs to also get the guild buff, banner buff & ice cream food buff – and I think the new campfire thingies set to karma give 50%.

Ya, already thought about that but do dungeons give more karma in short period? I mean like CoF p1 speedrun?

And do all those things stack on eachother? (guild buff, banner buff and karma booster)

So I am almost done working with my legendary, just missing like 38 mystic clovers..
Only thing I need is some Obsidian Shards for that.. But ofcourse, I need lots of karma again and I (preferable) want it very fast.. I do my dailies and just finished my monthly..

You guys have any tips to make 100k karma rly fast? (in one weekend or less)
I spare my karma jugs etc and drink them with karma boost but still dont have enough, think I might atleast need 200k in total since u dont get much mystic clovers out of MF..

Thanks in advance!

Cheers

Just rlly LOL at this all.. You guys aren’t thinking.. Same goes to that culling effect.. Everyone thought WvW was going to be so much more fun.. Well, is it now? No, cuz every second you see someone saying “Lag here” or “wow, skill-lag, kitten this”.. Same will happen if u delete the cap since the server will need to proccess a whole lot more HP bars, skills, debuffs…

You can flame all u want, but you’ll see when they should delete cap again..

It needs to be higher than 5 to punish bad mob mentality.

I can agree on that one, it might be fun having a bit higher cap.. But I’m against deleting cap for sure… Not only for myself, but also for others who don’t have a massive game rig in front of them..

I can confirm this and made me angry yesterday (yes, it has been 2 days already).. And let me tell u what server it is, it’s Far Shiverpeaks.
Wanted to end my monthly by doing last events in Orr, but ofc, like mentioned above, ppl are just killing mobs who come endlessly (good for farming yes, but hatefull when others just want to do event for Karma) so this makes Karma farming in Orr impossible..(which is the only thing stopping me from ending my Legendary since I only need 30’ish clovers and only need Obsidian shards)

I do love being kind of glass cannon build AND stay in the back of the zerg in WvW..
Like most are saying here, Ele’s are indeed a support class, simple as that..
If you want lots of kills when using staff in WvW, go 5/30/0/5/30, full exo berzerk gear and acessories and stay in the back of your zerg.. I guarrantee you multiple kills and crowd control.. But you’ll die alot in 1vs1, but no worries, you’ll have lots of more kills/exp from attacking in group.. (talking about an easy 3k dmg each hit from fire skill 5..)
Also, use Blasting Staff in Aranca Traits (makes AoE from staff bigger)
This build also works fine in PvE with D/D..

I use this kind of attacking (staff) when I’m with a zerg, fighting against another (also works great when on wall defending SM,keeps, etc..): water 4,water 2,air 5,earth 4 and 5, then go fire 5 and 2.. Repeat. But like I said, stay in the back cuz once you’re targetted, say your prayers lol..

Evasive Arcana (trait) does not always work in combat (and I know it has a cd of 10 seconds)
Also Arcana Shielding (trait which comes when your health reached 25%) does not work for the most times for me

ln aa zerg of 70+ people, 5 is barely anything, especially if they are chasing after you and all you can do is a mere #4 water or #5 air, the other 65+ will still keep going and wont even notice.

What are you saying, you want to stop or hurt the whole +70 zerg by your own?
Because it surely looks like this.. Saying 65 men don’t notice you.. Ofcourse they don’t, you’re not God xD

Keep cap up but let’s say 10 men can be hit in AoE’s.. Don’t turn cap off
Imo!

So you are saying I can beat an entire zerg of 70 people alone if AoE cap was removed?
Because it surely looks like this. Saying that 65 people wont attack me with gap closers/ranged attack…Ofcourse they will, Im not God.

Turn off Cap or make it a lot more people, Imo!

No, I’m saying u want a +70 zerg to notice u.. I never said “beating an entire zerg” I said hurt or stop (delaying) them.. No need to get angry now))))

nobody is angry, im just showing your flawed logic in a attempt to justify the AoE cap

Same goes to your logic when u want to be noticed by 70 men + you’ll ruin the servers like hell with your idea since we have skill-lag and such since “culling-effect” has been deleted.. When cap get’s deleted, server needs to process a whole lot more => more lag => more hate => deleting cap = stupid choice.. Easy logic, not flawed lol..

Or maybe you just don’t play in a high crowded server, which could be the reason why you’re not thinking about the lags which will carry with it..
Trust me, in big EU servers like FSP and stuff, it lags enough and we DONT need to have cap deleted.. It will just ruin everything and wvw wouldn’t be playable no more.. There is a reason why they capped it

Bye and gl

its not:
…if you stand still for seconds in a red circle you deserve to die…..
For healing its the same…if you stand in a circle stacked than you are vulnerable to opponent aoes.

Zerging is BAD.

What is OP is the chance to RTL into siege machines behind enemy lines into earth 4.

Thing that worked insanley good pre aoe cap.
That was unreactable.

I actually tried both staff than D/D a lot before cap….and never had any issue against staff eles.
Only thing a staff ele could do is nuking rams from top of walls…
Note that it still works the same.

Yes, that’s indeed true but if you rly know how to nuke zergs with Ele (when cap would be gone ofc), Ele would be considered OP again..
But indeed, same goes for D/D Ele’s ofc with air skill 5, then rtl back in, dodge, use fire 3 back in..

Both would be considered OP after a while, Im sure of this.. So it will be a battle which server got most Ele’s :p (again, if cap would be removed)

Hmmm… I have my thoughts about this tbh..

It’s ok if AOE’s capped, but ofc, 5 is too low..

But, if cap would be removed, every class (especially ele staff) would be considered OP (again).. Why?

No ._.

Ele staff aoes are not an issue…maybe D/D not staff for sure.
I used D/D before cap….well it possibly was really OP (maybe only earthquake).

Staff never was….you can avoid all his aoes….

So using water skill 4, then water skill 2, then earth skill 2 and 4 +5 followed by Fire 2 and 5, air 5 (all in a row) against a 80man zerg not OP with staff? O.O
That’s heavily OP for 1 Ele against a 80men zerg imo

But nvm me, I’m just thinking about the problems afterwards..
Ofc, I would be happy as a fellow Ele if cap was gone.. But remember, everything needs to be balanced so our AoE’s will be nerfed for sure..

EDIT: This with Arcana’s Blasting Staff ofc in traits…

Hmmm… I have my thoughts about this tbh..

But, if cap would be removed, every class (especially ele staff) would be considered OP (again).. Why?

Imagine this: +80 zerg going to do portal bombing, so they’ll be at one spot.. you see them as Ele, going there and just use Air skill nr 5 on them.. And be like “sup,got stuck?” to a 80 man zerg.. I mean.. xD..

Ok, maybe bad example but to make things clear, some classes will be considered OP since they can do “Crowd Control” skills and others can’t..

You’ll see alot of complaining again from others like guardians, warriors, etç and I wouldn’t blame them… (although my main is Ele aswell)

People QQ’ed about this culling effect right? Well, Anet made a great job to delete it..
Now, ppl QQ cuz there is so much lag (skill-lag etç)… Then some friends and me are like “what else did you expect?”

Some need to think further and don’t look to their main skills only but also look in position of other classes..

Well, this is my 2 cents..

Heya!

I prefer using Razer Naga as mouse! (Don’t personally like Logitech g500 since it has third mouse button next to 2 normal ones, which could be a pain in the beginning and/or in stressy situations)
As for keyboard, I use Logitech G19.. Doesn’t rly matter what keyboard but I like this one since it’s shows map completion and stuff on the small lcd-screen on keyboard..

Razer Naga is rly great for playing Ele, you can put all Atunements (Like the upper 4 buttons at side of the mouse (#1 fire,4 water,7 air and 10 earth) on the mouse easily.. For the skills, I do the same! Skills 1-5 on mouse buttons #3,6,9,12 and 2 for skill 5..

So for example, when u need water skill 5, u can just quickly press 4 on mouse and immediatly press 2.. When on keyboard, u won’t be that quick, how pro you u might be..

Although, it’s for everyone different, some don’t like those gamemouses, some prefer it.. And not hard to learn it, took me 2 days to fully control it!

Side note: U can also put ur slotskills on mouse, U can make +30 different combinations with Razer Naga..

Goodluck and hf!
