Ok V you’re right I looked back over and I see you are stealing then instantly casting CnD, so here’s your apology, although I don’t appreciate the smugness
And you being a D/D, this bug will not affect you much as steal hs combo isn’t ever used as the obvious CnD steal combo is better. But it is a bit rich of you to say this is a broken mechanic seeing as your whole build is built around the steal CnD combo, which apparently isn’t a broken mechanic?! .
Yes C&D steal is also a BROKEN MECHANIC imo, guess what, I never use those mechanics and never have, they should also fix it that the C&D steal doesn’t work too. You seen my vids, you can see I don’t use broken mechanics. And really lol to think that my build is built around it, I play without using that cheese.
so you’re suggesting that its intended that steal go on CD because “out of range” when using steal at point blank range combined with heartsekeer.
if you think prepatch was broken and now its fixed, you dont understand what the word “broken” means in english. probably the dumbest post i read all day.
It’s been broken since release, imo. Only anet can tell us if they intended thieves to use these kind of mechanics, personally I don’t think they did. I’m not suggesting this is a fix, but I can tell you that I find it hilarious that every thief that relied on this way of playing is now crying on the forums.
Wait you dont precast abilities before steal? lol garbage thief. you should check out some youtube videos to learn the class mechanics better
That’s right I don’t, because I don’t believe it was intentional for us to be able to, so in my eyes its effectively cheating… I play with my honor in tact and I do not need to pre cast to be effective.
I’d rather not have an argument tbh but you do use the Cnd steal combo mate, I’ve seen it multiple times in each of your vids(which are pretty sweet :p) but yeah its besides the point, this is a bug.
Just for an example of you using it: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=pk6oqJ3pRZM
At 1:02 you use it, and it’s not the only time.
OH WOW REALLY? look again, u can clearly see me cloak him, you do know how the animation for C&D looks right? just stop now bro, you makin yourself look even worse, like I said I have never used it, that clip clearly shows me NOT using broken mechaincs. try harder, you will not find any clip of me using broken mechnics cos as I said I DO NOT USE THEM.

If you have the downed target selected and are using camera-look (mouse buttons held down) then the interact prompt will not show. We are testing a fix right now.
And this bug got past Q&A how exactly? getting so sick of bugs like this that SHOULD have been noticed b4 u made this patch available. Also my incinerators are bugged out in stealth too, another how the hell did this get past Q&A bug…
I said ‘play properly’ not play, it is highly frustrating when I’m trying to combo together a chain of skills and due to a bug it says ‘out of range’ and puts it on full cooldown. And V I didn’t know you were the kind of guy who flames people
How is using broken mechanics “playing properly”? do you really think anet intended thieves to be using hs steal combos? I personally hope this is not a bug and instead a fix because this should never have been possible in the first place. I am not flaming anyone btw, my comment was meant in general, ANY thief that cannot play without using broken mechanics is not a good thief, IMO.
Just to clear this up; you did receive the Revealed debuff?
I’m asking this because it has been since forever that when you use Infiltrators Arrow (SB #5) while in stealth, you will appear unstealthed, while your stealth still continues and other wont be able to see you.
^this is just an animation bug.
Just to be clear, that has not been since forever, they added the ability to remain in stealth even after infil arrow probably 6 months ago, without even mentioning it in the patch notes, so it was kinda a stealth stealth fix, certainly not been in the game forever, I remember the days clearly when we did not have this ability and it was a huge buff to thieves when they added it.
Steal bugs out if combo’d with any movement skill (heartseeker, flanking strike) this needs to be addressed as any good thief cannot play properly with this bug.
If you cannot play without using broken mechanics then you are not a good thief…
There is now a new stealth animation bug, now when I enter stealth on my thief my incinerators (both real) now have a blocky stealth animation around them, just like there used to be with the radiant armor. How does stuff like this get through QA? Please fix asap.
What I’d like to see is a system that allows you to start with a basic backpack, and upgrade it with crafting, eventually ending in a FINALLY reasonably attained ascended backpiece.
.
If it ended in a legendarys backpiece then I would be happy.
I was hoping for something exciting today when they said there would be new items that are able to be crafted by each proffesion, but this, BACKPACKS! is not exciting at all, another anti climax blog post. /sigh
all I can answer is I hope when we’re able to show you what all we’ve been doing in total someday in the future – you’re as excited as we are about it.
Someday in the future? some of us have been waiting 2 years to get some real content into this game, like new zones, and I’m not talking about small zones like southsun or dry top, I mean REAL zones, like the ones you shipped with, and where are the new classes, races? I will be honest with you Colin, it seems to me to much time goes into making new gem shop items and not enough time goes into giving us the content we really want. I just hope that this feature pack reveals something to get excited about because I feel this game is just treading water right now.
But a POI would be obvious. You hover over the name of every map area and it tells you if you got all the POIs etc. I had an issue where, if you check the achievement itself, I had 174 out of 175 areas for Shiverpeaks. But I had completed every area. It was the Forsaken Halls.
Getting 100% map complete is not the same as getting all areas of the map complete for the achievement. You can have 100% map complete and not have all areas discovered.
There are areas in some maps that are not POIs, etc. but count toward map completion. Caves and such. You might want to google map completion. That’s where I found out I had missed something.
This is also incorrect, areas do not count toward completion, only POI’s Vistas skillpoints and waypoints.
Im going to guess its the one in bloodtide coast, in the chantry of secrets, its the base for the orders of whispers, and if you haven’t done their storyline there is a good chance you have never been inside it, so go look there.
If we didn’t need to farm there wouldn’t be much left to do. Perhaps you shouldn’t have 7 chars if you don’t have the time needed to outfit them all. This game requires crazy amounts of farming to gear up, so either farm or play less characters.
Natural healing (trait passive self): 125/3 second = 41.66/second
Correct me if I’m wrong or missing something but isn’t this trait just for the pet?
no, it applies to the player too. Once every 3rd second. Jump off a ledge with it equipped and youll notice it.
You’re right, they really should update that trait tooltip then as having it work on the player also is quite a big difference, thankyou for this info.
They will change it, already plenty of complaint threads up, and they will only increase until this idea for tags gets reworked. I feel confident this wont go live and will be changed to something more reasonable.
You mean like the new trait system………..
No, I mean like the flame kissed armor issue and the spvp removal of ranks proposal, which both caused major upsets among the community and both issues were addressed and dealt with to the communitys satisfaction (somewhat).
They will change it, already plenty of complaint threads up, and they will only increase until this idea for tags gets reworked. I feel confident this wont go live and will be changed to something more reasonable.
I’m going to guess that arenanet will be reading all these complaint threads about the rainbow tag “feature” and will see its not going down well at all and change it somehow. I have to give them some credit because in the past when the community has gone up in arms about something they listened and made changes, I’m expecting the same thing now.
I don’t understand what you guys are complaining about, the keys are easy to get and the chests are even eaiser to find, and the loot is actually decent, already had a few ascended recipes on top of everything else in them. Really how easy do you want it? this is Guild wars 2 after all, but yeah always people complain no matter how easy loot is.
Matches like this should be played home and away like football, there is a definate home advantage due to ping, I also think the crowds should be removed as we saw in this stream people got Moa’ed by memebers of the crowd. Imho GvG needs a 20 v 20 custom OS arena that has spectator mode, so the teams can fight without players interfering or causing more lag.
You only need 5 things for the daily, go do something else if its taking to long to cap a tower. Since the amount of points you can get from dailys has now been capped really its not important to do more than 5 a day, as you will evenatually reach cap anyway.
When you first start the fight set Liadri as your target, then whenever you lose her as target you can press the target assist button to regain her as your target. Quite simply you should learn to use these keys, not just for Liadri but for dungeons and also pvp, they are very helpful. So please do not complain about losing your target when its so easily rectified.
Just wanted to add my support to this thread, I recently bought the pass and was surprised that I couldn’t walk straight in passed the doorman, come on arenanet, this is unfinished work, we should be able to walk in at least.
