“You can’t have more than 10 HS decks because that would confuse people”
“30 fps is more cinematic”
This thread in page 3? Dead tier is dead.
I think I’m gonna go and add this pearl from mr. Empyre to my forum signature as a souvenir.
Edit: it doesn’t show for some reason
Refreshing post, OP. Don’t get too excited for level 80 though, as the game doesn’t change too much. Being lv 80 just opens up all the content the game has to offer, but there’s no traditional “endgame” per se.
and the only effective way to, was to blob as well because at same number, we were better
No seriously. Can you tell that with a straight face? How delusional can you get?
We mostly had guild raids and our guild raids wiped the floor with your pugs and guildies as well. I recall RG farming you south of bay for over half an hour, but I’m sure other guilds could’ve managed doing the same.
For pugs groups vs pug groups, see EB today… we wiped you more often then we died and we got two towers while you got nothing ( in 3 hours I played at least ), all in all pretty even.
Of course two episodes don’t prove much, but saying that at equal numbers VS blobs are better… I won’t comment any further.
P.s. It just occured to me that if I’m not misinterpreting what you just posted, you are basically implying that the blob was born some weeks ago on VS. Oooookay

We as in you? Why do we need multiple threads for this? Seriously, you opened 4 in the last few days, and they’re mostly copy paste of the same thing. I get it that you take this problem at heart but please stop the spam. You are breaking the forums code of conduct, just saying.
Hello from EB blob that’s ninjaing your t3 towers! Nice fights (we had two great incs) and nice emote fights.
Ahaha that CoF ad was great! Good job!
You do know you can do the whole JP fully stealthed, right? Granted you’ll have to be pretty fast, but the option of avoiding PvP in a PvP area (lol) is kinda there.
Sorry to sound pedant, but I wanted to let OP know I’m still waiting to understand what “special offhands/foci” are
I’m sorry but I lost it when you started throwing hyperboles around validating them as facts. The starting zones are awesome, and your repulsion for hearts is just that, a personal preference.
Leveling has little purpose I’ll give you that, but GW2 already confuses the average MMO player enough.
well you can send 500g my way kthanks
I don’t really like it on a conceptual/design level, but then again there’s plenty of these things in game. That being said my main is a Guardian and I don’t think this will effect us too much ; we’ll just have to watch out when using SY.
I love how OP states the false (both engis and eles have less weapon choices) and then disingenously forgets that they trade their kits/attunements with the ability to swap weapons…
Also worth noticing the nice choice of words regarding health pools, making it look like it’s not possible for other classes to have the same hp pool (guardians and eles both do).
I also have trouble understanding what “special offhand weapons/foci” are. What is a Guardian’s special offhand weapon?

I once had a fractal party where everyone but me stayed at range for the entire freaking dungeon, thus leaving the pressure of mobs/bosses on me most of the time. I don’t recall what happened exactly, but somehow I ended on my kitten for 5-6 seconds while the rest of my party, all full hp, watched me die. When later I told them about their reaction being too slow (or rather non-existant), the guardian answered " don’t complain, you are the worst player. Nobody ever died but you ".
At that point I decided to play exactly like said guardian (I’m a guardian too), pulled out a scepter and played at 900 range the whole time. We finished the dungeon quite slowly but without too much hassle. By the end, I had the least amount of deaths
Tl;dr: No. When playing the blame game, the strongest/weakest members of a party are to be analyzed on a case by case basis. If you play as a guardian and always stay at 900 range (thus having little to no pressure on you, doing laughable damage) don’t talk trash on others when they go down, they’re probably better players than you are.

You need to have a legendary?
Good Lord I’ve too many golden medals and no more space around my neck. Thank you Deso and SFR anyway:)
Hey look a zombie. Where have you been all this time? On a “forum vacation” like half of the french posters?
What about immobilize? Does condition duration work with it?
Oh boy aren’t you going on a tangent now? What has gambling to do with what we were talking about? Are you upset about the gambling going on with Flame and Frost dyes and weapon skins? So am I, but this is not the thread for it.
That being said I was simply pointing out that what you implied in your post is , at best, ignorant. It’s not as simple as it looks because the gold-to-gems ratio is not fixed and goes up the more people convert gold to gems.
Anyways. I don’t know why back pieces aren’t salvageable
(edited by Wolfheart.1938)
Yes. They totally need to designate two people and have them improve/expand current tooltips for all skills and traits. I don’t think it’s a really taxing job (it would take what, a week?) and I wonder why this hasnt been done yet.
And I’m not even talking about numbers. Guardian 5th Hammer skill is a light combo field, yet it’s not written in the tooltip, for example. Engineer medikit 4th (?) skill says “removes conditions”.. you’d think it would remove all conditions, or at least not less than two but guess what, it only removes one…
(edited by Wolfheart.1938)
I think I get what you mean, no content difficult enough to give a real sense of achievement when finished nor any way to stand out with your prowess when in a party. Those are definitely problems GW2 has to deal with, but I assume they have close to no priority as GW2 PvE is not competitive-oriented and people a sizeable portion of the players struggles with the current dungeons.
Oh and by the way, Epidemic is a great way to differentiate the decent Necros from the great ones
My point is, it doesnt really matter which character I take..because they are all equally viable.
And isn’t this awesome? You get to bring with you the players, not the classes. As long as every player knows what they’re doing, you will be fine
No more choosing someone for the classes he plays but for how he plays them
Because anything that provides you with gold or a way to make it means less gems for Anet.
Because the gem/gold exchange ratio is fixed right? Right?
Go play TPvP, especially with a team. Your spec matters a lot there.
P.s. You might want to evidence your point a little better, as I have some problems grasping it. Are you saying that dungeons are too easy? Maybe for you, the majority of players thinks new AC is impossibru!

It just occured to me that I’ve always abbreviated “Vizunah Square” with VZ, but in reality it should be VS as the second word starts with an S. So I figured I’d share this very interesting fact with you guys. That’s it for my daily post, I feel like going on a forum vacation like many of my beloved french friends did earlier.
(edited by Wolfheart.1938)
Thanks for the explanation Josh, now I got it. Not that I like “prestige” items since it seems that every new weapon set since launch (fractal weapons, halloween weapons, fused weapons) is “prestige” but oh well, at least I got my trustworthy candy cane hammer by my side.
On an unrelated note, I once talked someone into death metal.
Wish I understood the reasoning behind number 1…
Since he’s dead set on “every server has every kind of player” while I firmly believe that VZ motto is “quantity over quality”
Obviously Vz is more about quantity than quality atm, it’s not my point.
Sfr has gread guild, but also bad zerg which can be wiped easily. Sfr has skilled player, thy also have bad player.
Guess what ? It’s the same for Vz and deso.The sad state of the t1 eu wvw doesn’t change this, you’ll find every kind of player in every server, tht’s why screen doesn’t prove anything, they’ll never show anything more than a small part of the battlefield.
Of course every server has every kind of different player. I’ve had my kitten handed to me by players from every server SFR has faced, Vizunah included. But the composition is different and in 7 months of WvW I can tell I’ve never met a server whose ->average<- population is so inept at proper PvP (either small or large scale). And this is kinda disheartening considering that you are n1 WvW EU server and have been forever. I know screens don’t prove much, but trust me when I say I’ve seen those situations happen fairly often.
Again, I mean no offense as I understand that roaming/skirmishes are possibly one of the less meaningful aspects of WvW. But it’s one of the things I find most fun and when my enemy either zergs me or dies in two hits I kinda get bored.

For people wondering, no, Okamy is not talking with himself but with me. I deleted the posts to avoid the usual accusations of ego-stroking and whatnot.
Since he’s dead set on “every server has every kind of player” while I firmly believe that VZ motto is “quantity over quality”, there’s no discussion to be had. Suffice to say, I got those screens and the previous ones in the…3-4 hours I played, so it’s not really a rare occasion. I also know that I have no similar screens against Deso because as soon as their 5-man IRON group crosses my path I am effing dead. But this debate is silly, so I’ll leave it at that.
Granted fighting prowess is only a very tiny bit of what WvW requires and I mean no disrespect to Vizunah players but still… you get my point.
(edited by Wolfheart.1938)
If the new dungeon is as good as FotM (without the ascended crap) I’ll throw money at you Anet! Also hooray for spectator mode & custom arenas!
If you watch Wooden Potatoe’s “GW2 Mysteries” on youtube there’s a relatively founded theory about the existence of a 6th Elder Dragon, whose name appears to be Mordremoth
This is all speculation, of course.
Mordremoth :O
See what I did thurr?
Mail me your things before leaving plz
“they are making the game absolutley boring by night-capping”
Yes, then you guys should talk less bullkitten and play more, because if you have abandoned, this is not our case.
And i have not seen a such speech from you two weeks ago when Vizunah was in a bad way like you atm and Desolation with an income of 400+ every nights.
It has become a habit with you guys (Deso & SFR), when you win everything/everybody is perfect and when you lose everything/everybody sucks.
Actually VZ is boring to fight against wheter we win or not ( check post history
), it’s jus that winning makes it bearable! That, and VZ actually tried something new during that time.
Better give him what he wants Anet, or he will keep posting this!!!
Engineer 15chars
I’m generally not empathetic, but this thread really moved me. Congratulations to you and your beloved!
Can be achieved by just spending gold, farming queensdale 0-80 and so on. Would be a pointless achievement to have.
What does it mean if I am number “90%” in the spvp ladder, or achievements ladder? Is that top 90% as in “only 10% of players have lower rating/less achi points than you” or does it mean that I’m top 10% and the others are below? Sorry if this was already answered somewhere, but I can’t seem to find any hint in this article https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/introducing-leaderboards/
Bondurant thank you for your post, you have gained some respect by taking distance from people with uh… strong opinions? Now what about my archnemesis, Kingface (love you bro) ?
Inb4 important sfr guy takes distance from what I post
Guild missions anyone?
WvW?
I’ve honestly tried blocking you but your posts show up nonetheless. That being said if you want to repeat “we don’t care ad nauseam” (check your last 5 posts) go ahead, I can’t (unfortunately) do anything about it. Just notice that the “whinings” seem as endless as your posts because they come from many different players ( for a reason )
@ genev lol conundrum!
And in this all pointless discussions my awesome screens get lost =(
(edited by Wolfheart.1938)
random banter
When will you understand that we don’t care.
WE.DO.NOT.CARE.We don’t care what you think of us, we don’t care your server is not at its best, we don’t care you’re not having fun.
And we certainly don’t care what your vision of our game is.Get over it.
Or change things. But insulting VS on a forum isn’t going to achieve this.Vizunians have fun, even if they’d like a better opposition.
I think I’ve already stated that nobody forces you to read the thread. If you don’t care, why bother reading/posting at all? We have the rights to express our opinion, like it or not. If you find a post offensive report it and a mod will take care of it if it’s necessary. It’s not forbidden to share on the forums how boring playing against VZ is. I don’t care that you don’t care.
I am from SFR and I approve of this thread. The screenshot had me in tears xD
Gentlemen, I present you a new special package guaranteed to satisfy your farming needs! It’s called “the Vizunah” and it comes with 100% free self-delivery!
The Vizunah! Coming soon next your spawn points!
No but seriously…this is getting boring, I’ve met two decent VZ players in 1+ month…
@ Xispeo : lol at being afraid of you… c’mon you can’t be that much in denial. Watch the screenshot and tell me how can I be afraid of players like these, which by the way are what your server is mostly made of. Every single small scale encounter (at least this week) you guys get slaughtered/run away and it’s getting very boring and stale. I have thousand more screenshots that speak volumes if you want me to post.

If this game is designed around all classes being expected to switch weapon sets constantly, why can my guardian just roflstomp through everything with a greatsword or x + shield while my thief has to either juggle weapon slots to be close to similar in terms of power?
Aaaaand there we go! I’m pretty sure that you can “roflstomp” everything with a specific thief weapon set too, it just happens that it’s not p/p
Staff is a great weapon for guardians but try to level up solely using it
Will you come to the forums and ask for a staff buff? Because I’d love for empower to give me 20 stacks of might instead of 12.
Not implying that p/p is fine as-is (might be or not, I don’t play thief so I don’t know), just saying that asking for buffs to a weapon set just because it sucks for leveling up isn’t enough :d
(edited by Wolfheart.1938)
Bear with me for a sec I didn’t read the whole thread but noticed you said “I want to level my thief with p/p” and I wanted to point out that since balance can’t be perfect some sets/builds will inevatibly suck for leveling up, just like leveling an holy priest is (was?) a nightmare in wow, or wanting to level a Guardian only using the staff.
Also, regarind Thief’s squishyness… can’t you be invincible to every melee enemy as long as you stay in one of your blind-spamming fields? (smoke screen & black powder, add blinding powder or signet of shadows for extra funzies)
I see you are not very well informed about GW2 at all. The game doesn’t have a trinity, and that means that both classes and dungeons are more flexible, and that there’s no dedicated healer & tank classes. Instead we have a “soft trinity” which is damage, support and control.
There are no taunts or aggro-dropping skills so controlling aggro is quite difficult, and no class can “tank” a difficult boss full time by just standing there. You WILL be required to use your dodges, CC and kite even on the tankiest guardian. Having a lot of DPS isn’t that required either as there are no enrage timers or bullkitten like that. Support doesn’t mean “healbot” and in fact no class has spammable heals to keep health bars filled up.
Just stick with the classes you enjoy and you can run pretty much every dungeon with almost every party composition. However, some classes are definitely stronger than others and generally more welcomed in parties, especially for speedruns. Warriors and Guardians do pretty well in all departments, Rangers Engineers and Necros are considered somewhat weak.
Sorry for the terrible formatting.

2 legendaries? No respect
Since this week is all about fun and games, please allow me to present some comedy (it’s not meant to be offensive, just fun and games, you know) :
Pretty nice one, gotta admit.
Holy moly you guys have an spvp team? Time to get my revenge! (maybe)
