Empowered Allies is a huge boost to overall team DPS when using FGS. If you’re doing a record type speed run and your plan is to melt bosses with FGS and Ice Bows your warrior needs to be using EA.
Reasoning: EA is something like a 4% team DPS boost at the cost of like 10% of the warrior’s personal dps. In normal conditions (when everyone in the party is ding between 10-14k dps) it works out to be a 2-3% dps gain for your party. Nothing so major that you would care in a casual run.
However, when using FGS, it is a gigantic increase in overall DPS.
Warrior without EA = 12kdps With EA = 10,800 = -1,200 dps
Ele using FGS = 36kdps With EA = 37,800 = +1800 dps
Ele #2 using FGS = 36k dps with ea = 37800 = +1800 dps
thief using FGS = 39k dps with ea = 40,950 = +1950 dps
Guardian using FGS = 33k dps with ea = 34,650 = 1650 dpsSo when using FGS and EA the part gains a net of 6,000dps which is basically like having half of a second warrior. In percentage terms, its the same, but in nominal terms its a rather enormous gain and matters a lot.
Didn’t consider that, yeah that is kind of a big loss, although i usually take the FGS and with 100% crit chance it seems like a hige damage boost compared to a thief
I guess I was misinformed. What should the traits be without Empower Allies (assuming you’re the only Warrior). I’m assuming the 6/5/0/0/3 even when using the all Greatsword build or 6/6/0/0/2
6/6/0/0/2 is very bad, u dont need signet mastery, or anything in that line, the only reason u go 3 into that line is to get fast hands. 6/6/0/2/0 is better as u have 2 second downtime on banners with that build
6 x Rune of Ranger? What? Warrior’s companion?
Mini’s work as the #6 bonus, as said in the video! so its a 3% damage loss to scholar but i’m never above 90%
Can you guys tell me what you think of this build? Are there any other better roaming builds, this has been working great in the front line for me.
6/5/0/0/3 DPS Build! Feedback wanted
I’d like to join the TTS, i need to kill teq to get karma! for my legendary!
So every so often, increasingly faster every time. I get a black screen! it completely makes me restart the game and makes it unplayable. If im in a dungeon it blackscreens and i get kicked since it takes like 5 minutes to get back in. Anyone know how to fix it? (Note** I have tried a lot of things, they havnt worked)
With the first WvW season coming in possibly next reset, hopefully fellow mesmers are ready to roll.
Personally I’m going to test a new triple stab glamor build, which will hopefully get me some bags while doing mesmerly stuff. How are other WvW oriented mesmers preparing for the season?
My main is a mesmer, who commands a lot on my server. I am current running a ptv build. I have pretty low damage but I never die it’s so awesome. 30/0/20/20/0 again all ptv traits. I use the mantra heal because it has a 10 second cool down, emo w’s 3 conditions and heals for 11,000! Utilities are blink, decoy and portal/the stability mantra. Hit me up ingame if u wanna learn about it, If u wanna go full tank and never die like me it’s so fun!
Oh, I’ve got a ton of them. Good? Bad? I’ll leave that for you to decide. Lean back and enjoy.
My love for you is like a concave up function because it is always increasing.
I wish I was your derivative so I could lie tangent to your curves.
I’d like to plug my solution into your equation.
Since distance equals velocity times time, let’s let velocity and time approach infinity, because I want to go all the way with you.
I don’t know if you’re in my range, but I’d sure like to take you back to my domain.
I’ll take you to your limit if you show me your end behavior.
Being without you is like being a metric space in which exists a cauchy sequence that does not converge.
You are the solution to my homogeneous system of linear equations.
I heard you’re good at algebra – Could you replace my X without asking Y?
Let me integrate our curves so that I can increase our volume.
If I were a function you would be my asymptote – I always tend towards you.
Your beauty cannot be spanned by a finite basis of vectors.
You’ve got more curves than a triple integral.
You’re sin^2x and I’m cos^2x, and together we make one.
Why don’t you be the numerator and I be the denominator and both of us reduce to simplest form?
You must be the square root of -1 because you can’t be real.
How about you come to my place tonight, so I can show you the growth of my natural log?
How about I perform a sort on your variables, and you can analyse my performance?
You are one well-defined function.
Why can’t love be a one to one function? Then our relationship could be injective.
I would really like to bisect your angle.
Meeting you is like a switch to polar coordinates: complex and imaginary things are given a magnitude and a direction.
Whoops, I think my binomials just expanded.
I’m overheating because you’re stuck in my head like an infinite loop.
At absolute zero, you would still move me.
Why don’t we measure the coefficient of static friction between me and you?
My vector has a really large magnitude. Would you care to normalize it?
Your beauty defies real and complex analysis.
Are those things Asurans actually say? Or did u think of them?
I think one thing that is noteworthy is that a lot of us are willing to take Arah newcomers as long as they are willing to listen and learn
a thousand times this! i really really would like to know how to do Arah runs! I will be patient and listen to what needs to be done. Even as a newcomer, i would like to get through it as quickly as a vet would. I will even work on builds to do these runs. If its okay, i would like to join this guild to learn then do regularly.
Potchii , Pawtchi (i switch toons a lot)
Experience – Non
Warrior – Zerker (cause i do CoF runs) w/ rifle
Elementalist – D/D PVT gear. Also good with a staff
Thief – D/D glass cannon (not really geared and more for fun. i hear the shroud is good for getting past mobs you dont need to fight)
Availability – pretty much whenever.. not a lot going on.
potchii, that name is so familiar, I think I did CoF or AC with u recently, I am a mesmer called Agreggor
Oh thankyou! I saw a video with an asura wilding twilight who had big footsteps but it was a long time ago, so I just figured it would be patched. Also someone in game told me my sunrise footsteps would look tiny, and showed me something in comparison which upset me. Picture would be appreciated by anyone, since I have no recent proof and people go against it being the same size, e.g it could be the same for incenerator only ):
So in about a month it two I’ll have finished sunrise. I have an asura mesmer and a norn guardian, I am contemplating which one to put it on. My main is the mesmer, but would I have tiny specks for footsteps? Because on my norn I wouldn’t worry about that but he isn’t my main. So, do legendary asura footsteps scale and become tiny? And can anyone link pictures compared to a norn? Thanks!
I have a VERY skilled guardian, i have a small group of people i pug queue for tpvp matches with and they use me as their ‘guaranteed cap’ e.g ‘Guard, go to Mine and cap’ I have a lot of practice with guardian, Hammer/GS, constant healing and insanely hard to down, very skilled but OP build! contact me ingame VIA the in game mail system!
