So many bad kitten in this thread. Everyone thinks they can 1v10. When in reality they are ganking people a long the roads that are new to WvW or not level 80. /golfclap
No one is impressed with your small group vs randoms skills. This is WvW. WORLD vs WORLD. You feel like you can’t compete at that level so you’ve changed the rules of the game. lol
Like I said this isn’t aimed at a specific server. Just these dumbies that get their pride hurt when they get killed in WvW. It will be ok. Walk it off.

Why is EB so aggressive on these forums but terrible in the actual game? All I see is post after post accusing YB and CD of having terrible players… Yet both servers are crushing you right now.
I hope you drop a bracket this week cause frankly I’m tired of reading your empty insults. Have fun on your plummet. Glad we could be of service.
This whole post is empty, let me know if you want to fight club or don’t speak~
I already did fight club with you guys the last time our servers fought. It was fun. But I WvW to WvW… If I wanted to fight club I’d be in sPvP.
I don’t know who you are and can’t remember who the guys were I was fighting with but they invited me to group we had a nice little chat.
You are very angry and competitive it sounds like. sPvP sounds like your match made in heaven. Why do you get caught up in WvW so much?
I didn’t know you could tell im angry bro, you must be sitting right next to me. sPvP is extremely limited in stat combinations and as a result so are builds. Fight Club determines skill, which you clearly said we don’t have or actually “Why is EB so aggressive on these forums but terrible in the actual game?” Sounds like you’re backing out after calling us out. Im having a lovely chat with two YB right now.
I’m not backing out of anything. I get on WvW to play with my friends not duel outside of Orgrimar/Ironforge. Never understood those people. The game isn’t a 1v1 game. The classes aren’t designed for 1v1.
Also the reasons the stats are manipulated in sPvP is for balance. Which is why you can’t get a 100%+ bonus crit damage in sPvP but you can in WvW. So no actually fight club does in fact NOT determine skill. It let’s you play rock, paper, scissors with the classes.
And the reason I know you’re mad is because your own server sounds like they want to disown you. lol
Edit: And now I just saw you referred to be as bro. I can’t have a conversation with you after that. Sorry bud.

It is literally one dude, Archer, that is posting all of this.
Seriously, go read the thread again.
I dont think we have the numbers to beat you Yakkingtons or you CD players. We at Ebay have this weird population stuck between T4 and T5 with our recent transfers. I don’t think we’ll stay forever in T4, but you guys are only beating us by 23k so far.
I wouldn’t call that getting “crushed” or “terrible” and there has been good fights so far this week. Have you gone up against our PK/FTF/GH groups? Have you seen our roaming community? I think that is where we definitely do well. I know I have been having fun roaming and trying to score kills against your much bigger groups.
I’ll be looking out for [Vile Faith] Norns for sure.
I was just being rude at whoever is being rude. I don’t really get caught up in the WvW rivalry and competition seeing as there are about a million variables that will never allow WvW to really be competitive. I’d say leave the skill vs skill competition for spvp where it belongs.
And in answer to your question have I ever seen PK? Yeah we just took a tower from them right before I alt tabbed to see if that rageaholic bit at my post. lol
I can’t see name tags but whoever this guy is with the pretty CoF helm all black and gold just caught a killshot to the mouth hole! =P
And if you need help finding me on the battlefield don’t worry about the guild tag just look for that big kitten norn with The Juggernaut. I’m sooo close to finishing it I would say best case, by the end of this week. Worst case, within two weeks. =D
Again let me repeat myself I am in no way calling any of the servers we fight bad. That was just stabbing at people in this thread that are constantly insulting the other servers. I play WvW and I have fun. I hope you do to. There’s a reason we can’t see each others names in WvW and we can in sPvP.

Melee combat punishes inexperienced players, that’s all.
So all we need to do is to run the same encounter enough time that we can time our dodges and such on rote?
No you have to play the game enough to know the visual ques that tell you when the best time to dodge is. And to know when you have othe players boons efecting you and whats effecting the mob
Funny, i thought ANet told us to play the game, not the UI
Good thing theres in game effect for all this kitten! It becaums easyer to recognize the more you play.
I refuse to play this game on low settings. Sorry with all ANets AWESOME graphics enabled I can’t even see a boss inside the kaleidoscope of colors and effects.
The PVE is bad. Very bad. Hence ANet admitting it was bad and is why they are redoing almost all the regular dungeons. Part 1 of the dungeon patch was removing rez rushing. Part 2 is going back and actually making real encounters rather than the random melee spam they have now.
Looking forward to that. Until then I just play WvW. If I want dungeons there are other MMOs that do it better.

GW2 is like a chinese bot simulator at level 80. The game breaks down into stand in a big zerg circle and mash the 1 key on events in Orr. That is not a good game mechanic.
He’s right they need to flesh this game out and do something with these environments instead of LFG pent/shelt.
So terrible. And I love GW2 and see the potential but we need more. These new world story events have potential but hopefully it’s more exciting than Bob the Builder hit signs with a hammer in wayfarer foothills in these next few months.

Easiest to level? I only have 3 80s. Thief, ranger and warrior. Out of my 3 I would say warrior was without a doubt the easiest to level.

WoW arena’s are garbage. There are a lot of stupid people out there in the PvP world and a lot of them are playing the crappy mobas like LoL and Smite but the ones who arent are still into WoW arenas.
WoW arenas are like the Runescape of the PvP world, no one thinks you are good if you do well there and no one respects them but there are still people that love it, doesn’t mean its a good idea lol.
So if MOBAs are crappy and WoW PvP is crappy… What is the good PvP? GW2?

The fact that they left to avoid losing shows how they really feel about WvW…that winning is all that matters. Is winning good? Yes, but I have more fun just with the battles. When we were vastly outnumbered last week in WvW during YB’s primetime hours, I was having more fun just defending the keeps and playing around with the YB players than I was worrying about the actual score.
Winning should have so little to do with whether you play WvW or not. What should determine how much you play is how even the scores are throughout the week. If one server is sitting at 600+ potential points and everyone else is low then there isn’t even a WvW to participate in. Coupled with the fact that ANet had absolutely no plan for WvW for the first 6 months after launch there is no incentive to actually win.
It’s all about the skirmishing and actually getting to PvP. If all you care about is your server winning for the week you have issues.
Not saying you have issues if you want to win. But if winning is all you care about… These are the types of people that throw gears, use skale venom, use pirate legs. You know the type. The type of person who will do whatever it takes using any underhanded tactic and showing absolutely no sportsmanship.
Sure there is no rule against using those consumables in WvW but we all know they will be removed. Same type of person that used golem boxes when we all knew how broken they were. You shouldn’t have to have your mommy or daddy come smack your hand and tell you not to do something that you know is wrong.

Yaks’ do have a crazy amount of people compared to EB. Not sure about CD.
But as to the ‘skill’ level, Yaks, don’t make any comment about that. We are on equal lvl.
Twice last night, our team of 10 witheald 30+ in both Hope & Refuge. You guys streamed it on us for about 10min straight.
Only once our two guards were down did you pile up on us. Not only that, we took the camps from your “Defenders” with all that craptastic ballista’s shooting at us.
So don’t even go there.
WvW is a numbers game. If the numbers are ‘close’, then it’s strategy. If the ‘numbers’ are widespread, it’s rofflestomping time.
I look forward to finding your 10-15 man roaming squads during this week and put’n the shame on. Don’t come out claiming “superior skill”. Such a cop-out.
Play to have fun.
Acknoweldge the population difference.
And lets’ just bash faces!
G’luck!
[EDIT] Something that was pretty classy by KAIN when they were moving up in tiers was the the ~vast~ majority of thier players played on ALT’s (sub 80’s) once they got thier numbers for the next week. Still stomp’d everyone by shear numbers, but at least it gave everyone a chance to actually have some good fights.
since that group of 30 was our best and most elite squad that employs master tactics and represents us in all aspects of this game
A group of 10 defended against 30?! In a game where defenders have the advantage! Get the heck out of here! NEVER! lololol Arrow cart spam is serious business. I heard you need a technical degree and 10 years on the job training before you can pilot one.

I love how everyone on every WvW thread who is losing calls the other team a zerg… We get it. Your excuses are tired. If you don’t have enough players to compete then just drop to the lower bracket.
If your BL and EB aren’t queues right at the start of the reset then clearly you’re not a real WvW server. And if there is a queue then we all have the same amount of players. Mathz r teh hard I kno.

I play a mesmer and solo roam every now and then. Good fights are hard to come by depending on what server you’re on but mesmer is a good class to run around by yourself. Here’s one video of me running around solo, I have a few more. You just need the right spec and gear.
The sad part is the other 3 players could be your exact skill level and none of this outcome would change.
The stealth and clones mechanic needs so much work.
If I’m on my warrior and a thief or mesmer tries to 1v1 me I just exit stage left. Why waste everyones time. If I do win it’s because the thief or the mesmer is terrible and I don’t really feel good about the win.
If a warrior beats someone in 1v1 it’s because they are either really bad or the warrior is working 300% harder than they are.

If the bunker ele is an issue, then why are you nerfing RtL? Are you forgetting that non-bunker builds actually need it so they can… you know, survive?
They just need to nerf the gimmicky water trait line, especially those two grandmaster traits. If people feel less inclined to go that deep in water, then these builds will most likely go away.
But please, ANet if you’re reading this, whatever you do, take small steps first. Harsh nerfs are never a good thing. If you’re gonna bother analyzing the metagame with these new weekly map rotations, then a massive nerf is not a good idea.
Pls let’s stop answering to these threads and let them die as they deserve.
Stop worrying, the roamer role is not going anywhere and neither is bunker role, either way there is to say that water line is there as part of the class mechanic, nerfing the traits won’t change the fact that water line is there to heal/support , hence the nerfs are asked only out of spite but Anet know what water is supposed to do so while it may get toned down, it’ll remain there to do what it’s supposed to do…heal.
More balanced builds are welcome and ele won’t become weaker anytime soon, on the contrary a power ele is even more dangerous, you can change the tides of battle quicker than any thief and warrior combined while still being more survivable( because those professions both run full glass cannon ).
Changes are coming nevertheless, knowing this I spent the last month trying new builds and getting away more and more from the usual 30 arcane/20 water, I discovered how some unused traits synergy beatifully with some runes and other traits, the output dmg is tremendous and while you won’t survive as your typical 0/10/0/30/30 you will dish 2x the damage, even though in a sense you become more survivable as by killing your opponent way quicker you won’t need to outlast him that long
You’re right. Eles don’t need to get toned down. All other classes need to get brought up to have a completely rounded build with no downsides. Everyone else has to make sacrifices in their specs in order to be mobile, spikey, survivable. Ele can currently do too much while sacrificing too little. This is why a mediocre or new player can excel on an ele.

This post is 100% accurate. The point isn’t L2Dodge issue… It’s that ranged doesn’t need to dodge. They can just stand there and auto attack the boss to death.

i need to go take a look over there.. see if there is hope for open world content to be rewarding gameplay.
Don’t bother. It’s not “well designed, challenging content”.
They just added portals that if one spawns and you’re in it you’re instantly defeated. Not downed. Defeated. RUN BACK.
Once again Grenth can also be zerg rushed. A lot of people just don’t even bother going because of the one shot portals that bug out and drop you from one portal into another portal and instantly kill you from fall damage and then you get a repair bill.
Grenth himself is a joke. I can tank him on my glass cannon PVE warrior with omnom pies for healing and not using any dodges.
Keep trying. And fix the kitten abomination by Caer Shadowfain WP at the end of the Plinx chain… A lot of people don’t even bother finishing the chain anymore because he resets himself every 30 seconds. It’s ridiculous. His charge doesn’t even need half of that range and would still be effective.

Why do people insist on using WvW footage to show the viability of their build? The only way to demonstrate it is a good build is to use sPvP.
We understand that you most likely got best in slot everything for this build. But we also know at least 50% of your opponents (probably more) do not have equal gear.
Long story short. Go wow us with your amazing skills in sPvP where everyone has equal gear then maybe the build could appear viable. WvW is just a massive newb stomp.
P.S. I almost hung myself when the music started playing. lol
i played spvp for my first 500h of my playtime, i’ll go back to it when they actually add a game mode that takes skill to play, Conquest regardless of what mmo it is its the same thing over and over again. bring as many tanks/healers as you can and outlast them on the objective, die, re-spawn rinse and repeat. if the standard for viability of a build is set by what works in s/t pvp for other aspects of the game then no one should run anything other then bunker. the title does say WvW
I’m not saying the game mode is good. Do a hot join sPvP and just find people and smash them with your hammer. It’s just better to show off a build because we know everyone is equal.
Only reason I’m bring it up is because I go in WvW all the time to test out specs and clobber people only to find out the spec is bad and the people were just under geared and under leveled.

Yep, nerf Elementalists and Guardians boon rolling/bunker abilities, slightly nerf Mesmers utility and clone spam and make Thieves a little more defensive and less bursty and Warriors should be fine again.
That will never happen, warriors got armor and HP, other professions got boons, healing and clones…deal with it or change game, devs already confirmed that bunkers are not going anywhere, slighty changed maybe but they’re here to stay; boons and healing are there as compensation for the low HP…
As far as I know only this game got professions with 45% more HP than other and in your mind how that 45% difference should be justified ? Superior dmg?Control? Support? If not for any of the three option why a player should pick the profession with 45% less HP? Just to look pretty?
45% HP is 1 or 2 auto attacks dumby… So we can absorb MAYBE 3 extra hits with NONE of the escapes or utility. You’re living in your own little world.

Adding targetable objects to the battlefield = bad PvP design. Doesn’t matter what the class is. Mesmer clones, necro pets, engi supply drop and turret. GTFO. You turn PvP into a clusterkitten and wonder why no one likes your PvP.
Stop giving classes advantages that have nothing to do with PvP. Pet classes are such an idiotic idea for PvP. Yay I get to tab target 12 times or click on this guy in between 12 other moving targets… Meanwhile he gets to pres… TAB.
You need to get more player vs player into your pvp and less players vs random kitten running around the battlefield controlled by AI. This game is currently wasted potential. Nothing more. The engine is awesome… What it’s being utilized for is such a waste.

If you think warrior is weak, go play D/D elementalist, then come back to your warrior.
If you learn to play your D/D elementalist properly, and apply the same playstyle to your warrior, you will notice just HOW superior warrior is.
Axe/mace + (hammer or greatsword) warrior is a D/D ele with 50% more damage, 100% more hp, and better control.
Because you arnt supposed to play you D/D ele like you play your warrior. They are on 2 different levels.
Not true at all.. If you look at the warrior bunker traits and abilities, warriors depend on moving in for large bursts, then getting out and kiting during a regeneration phase to rinse and repeat.
It’s the exact same style as D/D ele.
Except we don’t have a regeneration phase.

You can do this with a variety of classes.
A thief can start on a buff, shadow step port away then port back to finish it.
Also haste increases the rate at which u take the buff, making timewarp teamfight on a buff super powerful. Also, timewarp+mistform etc=uninteruptable cap.
^What Daydream said.
This is not an exploit, its just unfortunate that some of us think to do these things while everyone else gets jealous they didnt think of it on their own and cries exploit to the forum. The only issue I have with it is it creates incentive to bring certain classes, even though I dont think its necessary to bring certain classes the principal is what matters.

Temple is still full of bugs that need to be fixed ASAP :
Portal + channeling
Invulnerability while channeling not canceling (not intented because we can’t start channel while invul)
I don’t understand how they can just put it in the paid rotation while there are still tons of bugs (and these bugs are here since sooo long)

A lot of classes have access to these abilities that would give them an advantage at the buff, since you clearly understand this why dont you play around it? I just dont think its an exploit, but we’ll see. If it is I’ll eat my words.

/signed Downed state needs to go from PvP. Maybe make out of combat rezzes faster in PvP only.

The character is dead in less than 0.5 seconds. That is faster than human reaction time.
I guess you’re the only human here then. 0.5 seconds is a VERY long window to react in. Please improve your reaction time before you talk for the entire human race.
LOL OK T-1000
You sound kinda silly right now. Thief is broken. No counter to stealth meaning a stealth reveal circle we can lay down is a broken mechanic. Dodging isn’t a counter. That is asking a player to be a psychic and know when an invisible ghost will attack. AOE isn’t a counter. It’s a deterrent. Also asking the player to be a psychic or cower in fear inside the center of their own AOE circle.
The game needs a hard counter to stealth. Clearly you’re complaining because that is your bread and butter and you wouldn’t know how to play if you weren’t invisible. That’s fine. ANet can buff thief survivability. Not that they need to. If you’re a thief with a shortbow as your second weapon set and you die to anyone you’re terrible at the game.

There should be an option for sheathe/unsheathe preview because some weapons have different effects when they are unsheathed like all the ghastly weapons.

I play a Norn male character with full height and massive build. With this stature I’m required to almost look straight down at the ground in order to see my target and the surrounding area during combat. I think if the camera pivot point was higher off the ground I would be able to look forward and actually still see the ground in front of my character. As an added bonus I may actually get to see the sky for once. I didn’t even realize how great the sky looked until I was level 80 and took the time to mess around and look straight up.
This camera issue may also be why combat feels a bit off to me. I never feel like I’m looking forward. I always feel like I have to look straight down at the area immediately in front of my feet.
I also think an object coming between my character and the camera SHOULD NOT zoom the camera in. It’s almost like there is a solid invisible beam between my character and the camera and if anything trips it the camera is doing a whacky zoom in zoom out dance. It’s ridiculous. If you want to test it walk in front of a small plant ot a stick or something and put it between your character and the camera and you’ll see what I’m talking about.
I made a video to explain where the camera is positioned and how I think I should be able to aim it. The second half when I’m looking straight forward I think if the pivot point was raised up above his head (Like another MMO I won’t name.) it would give a better view of combat while actually letting you see the game world and not the dirt in front of you. Also I entered into combat as an example that looking forward is not a viable option for combat as you can’t see your target anymore.

Really bugs you getting rolled by a higher skill ceiling class doesn’t it? Because that’s really what it looks like.
No offense.
/eyeroll
Funniest thing I’ve read today… Having 20 abilities never having to worry about CDs is a higher skill ceiling… I would say trying to do more with less would require more skill. Yeah we get it. D/D can do everything. Fill whatever roll they want. I wouldn’t call that player skill as much as the devs giving them too much versatility. A class is supposed to fill A roll not ALL rolls.

Deathmatch. No argument. Add it.
If you work at ANet go look at your little metrics for sPvP compared to PvE and WvW. You know something is wrong. I’ll give you a hint. Conquest sucks. =)
Edit: The only people that like conquest are bunkers, thieves, mesmers and D/D eles. Way to diversify the viable builds! Woooo!

I’m starting to wonder if questions like these can even be answered. The game currently revolves around one mode—capture the point. A lot of people are hoping that Anet offers more game options (ctf, deathmatch, etc.). If that happens, the current pecking order may be upended entirely.
Warriors. While they may have a strong 100B. They are boring as all hell to play. They need to do some skill redesign and make the class actually fun and feel like you can flow into a situation and not have to BC in and drop a bomb as your only viable option.

Thread title says it all. Has there been an official date set by ANet? Looked all over. Came up empty.

If you look at your trait trees you will see that certain traits in different lines mesh very well with other traits in different lines. And all professions utility skills have specific skill types that can be buffed by the traits in certain lines of the traits section on hero panel. Your build is only limited by how you design it.
And it’s also limited by the predesigned synergy they built in to the trees. You can only think up combos that they put in there for you. Maybe one or two rare exceptions of luck.

“Ele in GW1 was weaker than GW2 ele”…this is one of the best jokes I had the pleasure to read on these forums.
A hero rank 9/gladiator rank 6 ele here and to answer to your claim that GW2 ele is stronger than GW1 ele…you’ve got no idea of what the GW1 ele was capable of:
1) perma Weakness = dmg reduced by 66%
2) perma blind= 90% miss rate chance
3) knockdown lock
4) perma burning
5) most powerful elites in the game= lightning surge, invoke, shockwave, mind burn, mind blast, savanna heat, searing flames…crazy
6) lightning surge was kd and 180 dmg on a 500 HP character, I could follow with orb of lightining for another 150 dmg, 2 attacks and you were already at 200 HP
7) mind blast for infinite energy
8) I could walk in and stand toe to toe with 2 warriors= shockwave+kd lock and kill both warriors
9) I could use armor of sanctity and take 0 dmg from every nearby mele attacker……
0 DMG
10) All this while having same HP of a warrior
11) in GW1 5 eles meant instant death ( literally) for any players, invoke spike GG
In all this, GW2 ele is nothing but a fraction of what ele was back in GW1…consider yourself lucky
Glad 9/champ 2 warrior here. Guild wars 1. You obviously play gw2 PvE. Eles were strong, but GW 1 was a monk game. This isnt. You never played bunker ele in GW 2.
Ele is the most OP class in game now every pvp would agree. I dont like ignorance.
Pls….no lies…if you want to talk to a champion level warrior I may arrange for you, just need to contacts few people and luckily I may give you the opportunity to speak to a real champion warrior from GW1.
Moving forward…what you assume I play..it’s completely irrelevant, you don’t represent all PvPers in this game, you represent the vocal minority , furthermore your knowlegde of the warrior class is limited to axe/shield/gs well known build…basically 1/4 of the entire profession, if you want to know how to play a warrior..I can arrange for you, this time will be more easy as I still play GW2, pls don’t be shy.
Rattle off some names of some top 50 QP warriors from paid tourny. We’ll all wait for you to come back. Kthxbye
