Guild Wars 2

it’s a hotjoin, who cares

p/d thief or PU mes is the best 1v1 class

for best chance of 1vX’ing, engineer (due to being able to kite and do a lot of damage at the same time)

Ferik.3127:

I already voted necromancer so please do not count this one

HOWEVER I just want to say something~

WHERE’S THE NECROLOVE, boys? Don’t hate us necros just because a few scrubs are running the OP condi-mancer builds >_<

I’m sorry man, I just don’t enjoy necro. Way too slow for my tastes. I can see why you could though, with proper positioning and planning you can ruin everyone.

This thread still going..?
kitten .

The same 2-3 people are so entitled they feel they should bump it over and over until they get what they want. Dailies for logging in.

Quincy.2198:

My opinion is that we should make the current TeamQ a guildQ.
Like u can only join with 3/4 of ur guild and 1/2 not from ur guild. Like in GW1, it was a huge succes, seeing your Guildname in HoH for example..
Let Soloq be what it is, remove ladder, because its absolute luck.

The vast majority of people I queue with are not in my guild.

Acandis.3250:

it’s not about the better rewards. it’s about no skyhammer, that alone is a better reward

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ this right here

I don’t see the issue… they’re going to lose vs a coordinated stack any day.

You physically can’t all use those skills in a second.

double posting to fix empty page bug for readers. Make sure you don’t count my vote twice.

Engineer, because of the playstyle kits presents, and because of build diversity.

engineer, because of the playstyle that kits presents, and build diversity.

Occasionally – there’s no Skyhammer, and no Spirit Watch, but the people are generally worse (a phenomenon I can’t explain.) Mixed blessing.

ellesee.8297:

and why can they sword leap or banner rush for long distances but rocket boots get the shaft? ):

(Don’t tell anyone this is top secret, but next time you get the orb, do slick shoes’s toolbelt skill and rocket boots)

You need to play 11 matches.

no

Zoid.2568:

There isn’t any problem with this map. It’s fully functional. It’s just the players that whine because they can get knocked down a pit.

Anet themselves said that the map is not suitable for tPvP. It is not in team queue.

I feel like you’ve gone deep down the “let’s make things viable road” on guardian, which is fair, and deep into the “let’s bring rediculous stuff like signet of spite in line” on every other class, which is also fair, but forgotten to mix the two and do “let’s make things viable” on every other class.

entropy.9613:

Also, please give ETA on when condition damage will be removed or some option to not play against necros.

Don’t make me have to make a new thread.

Necros are part of the game. Super Smash Bros Brawl is not.

It’s not really too strong, it’s just straight up kittening dumb. Passive condition immunity? Anet are you not getting the message about passives? How about something like “Immunity to conditions for 4 seconds after switching to earth attunement”.

Ryld.1340:

I do have to ask why, besides the base health, all you did to ele was nerf it. These were not changes that seemed to fit what the class actually needs.

Because:

DoYourBestBear.6810:

With AoE rebalancing – AoE target cap increased to 8 targets – the aim is to slowly decrease the power and effectiveness of AoE skills to a point of balance relative to single target skills and abilities and a hedge against AI clutter

Introduction of skill/charge shots – increase the depth of game play for some skills and classes, allows for deeper sense of counter play and more inter-combat options

These are all AoE spam or encouraging broken mechanics like passive condition immunity. The health increase opens up a lot more viability.

Can we get an ETA on when it will be removed or some option to not play this dribbling mess?

consider pressing buttons on the keyboard

Because I want shark finisher because you kill people with a shark. Ok?

Stealthasaur.2198:

Caed can be an kitten BUT……. the end.

Xii Xi.

are you okay xii

That was actually insanely cool

why, so you can experience the joys of fighting spirit rangers, of course

Sounds like the system is working as intended.

God forbid you stay in a game. I had horrible connection a while back and was disconnecting all over the place and didn’t get the debuff, I can’t imagine how much you’d have to leave to get 2 days of the stuff.

Get moaed? Press 5. #wow #woah you just countered someone’s 180 second cooldown.

I don’t even play mesmer at all. That kitten is just weak.

yes

yesyeyeytsey yes

15 good cobbers

Just more good stuff like you made before. Perhaps experimenting with a few obscure builds and seeing what you can pump out of them.

Class is fine. Are you drugs bro? Heaps of builds, heaps of options within traits, and potentially the funnest class to play because of kits.

This poll is very poorly made (Overlapping results) but I voted remove skyhammer anyway, because remove skyhammer.

This is very unreliable, as the MMR spread between different players at the top of the LB is likely completely different to from 0-90%.

A much better way is to note what your percentile is before you reach the top 1000 and then extrapolate from there. IE, if you’re 90th percentile and then you get 1000, it’s probable that there’s 10k players – 1000*10.

Ok. Let’s get a cold hard fact down right here right now.

Impale is the most broken skill in the game.

It’s something I’ve noticed for a long time but only recently after the hambow nerf does it seem condi wars have noticed this and taken offhand sword for the purpose of instantly applying eternal, unremovable (as it’s applied in stages) torment with next to no cast time every 15 seconds.

What is this entire kittening thread holy kitten. Playing ele is griefing? Are you kittened?

Big, big agreement with all except for:

Oxygen.5918:

) Prevent players under glory rank 20 from queueing for tpvp.

No, a much better solution is to match low ranked/new/learning players with… other new players, instead of just shunning them completely.

I solo queue and I get thrown matches, absurd teams and skyhammer/spirit watch 4 times in a row. It’s not kittening fun, please fix, start by removing skyhammer which is something you can do NOW instead of something that takes loads of development.

All is vain.

Please listen to the based god anet

I was queuing drunk last night and I lost 12 matches and two people blocked me.

Anet, please fix.

Rigel.5789:

Ad hominem, handwaving, general stubborness.

Ok, I can’t argue with this! You’re entirely right.

Mockup of the new achievement page.

15 good cobbers.

Fortus.6175:

No.

Instants are instants. If you put a CD on instants from chaining with each other then you would have a bunch of classes’ core mechanics broken.

Guess it’s ok for you to make 2-3 threads a month about backstab but if you touch ele’s rediculous and ACTUALLY uncounterable as opposed to “in my forum poster mind” uncounterable damage, then we’re touching “class core mechanics”.

Fortus.6175:

old or not, backstab has received no changes in amount of damage since release, or if it has it hasnt been enough.

Because it doesn’t need them?

I hope this isn’t making way for more, real, gear grind. Even this should be corrected.

Come on anet, do you have short term memory? Do you remember why you split PvP and PvE in the first place?

Probably necro, honestly.

Rigel.5789:

If this stays in the game it will turn off most of the completionists from sticking around. Temporary achievements are absurd enough to begin with, but to require people to play six hours a day without an exception repeating the same tasks amazes me. That is what is the issue.

Dude – I have bad news for you, there are unreasonable achievements LITTERED throughout this game if you’re a completionist. It takes something like 8 years of 13 hours a day of a dolyak a minute to get Yakslapper. You could probably kill a man and be out in 8 years on good behaviour. I think anyone rational has accepted that they won’t get every achievement point. If you’re complaining about the leaderboards then wow, now we actually have something to separate the hardcore from the not hardcore enough.

Bad news for you. The WvW achievements will be reworked to make them more reasonable.

Bad news for you. There are still loads of unreasonable achievements in the game. You don’t expect to get champion brawler or more than one or two of the champion titles if you can’t cope with winning 8 matches.

I had 4 matches on this map the other day. Why? Do you hate us Arenanet? I actually know of a few people who DON’T SOLO QUEUE at all because of Skyhammer, and I can get testimonials if it comes to that. Get rid of this map, or fix it.

Rigel.5789:

You’re sitting here arguing for the sake of arguing when you obviously don’t care about this either way. If you’re not a completionist you won’t understand the mindset of one, and judging by your responses you do have absolutely no clue.

Now if people who only go in here with the intent’s of trolling because they couldn’t care less about the subject should think twice and maybe move on to something that actually matters to them.

It does matter to me. I want them to keep what precious little AP they’ve finally added for actual PvP players. I play both modes so I have something like 12k, but I have several friends who only play PvP who have maybe 3k-4k at tops? And you’re sitting here with 14k trying to get that taken away because you can’t be kittened doing them. That is incredibly selfish and entitled.

Rigel.5789:

If their intent is to have it this way to make it “harder” to get achievement points. Then I’m fine with it, I’ll just go and do something else with my time, and ArenaNet will lose alot of their most loyal players from it, trust me.

Maybe you’re right. Maybe they were mislabeled all along. Maybe AP stands for “Attendance Points” and you get them for just logging on and frolicking around every day, not “Achievement Points”, for you know, achieving things. They should be given out for free to anyone who turns up. Guild wars isn’t quite that casual yet.

Rigel.5789:

And the argument that whoever cares for achievement points are just PvEers has already been proved wrong numerous times in this thread. In fact, I’d assume quite a few of them are better at it than some of the players posting in this thread judging by their knowledge of the game.

Simply amazing. Resorting to ad hominem in defence of easily attainable achievement points. Self centered ad hominem at that.

style.6173:

Definitely a poorly thought out achievement. It should be “play 3 solo queue games” and “play 3 tpvp games”. Either of those should also count towards the “play 3 matches” daily as well.

So you can AFK or throw matches to get it done quicker at the expense of everyone else? In your dreams.

Boomstin.3460:

Easiest way to make ‘content’

- Add dailies that takes hours to complete
– ?
– Profit

Don’t do them then. Why is this so kittening difficult? If it’s too hard, you don’t do it! Wow! Amazing concept!

You heard it here folks – because you farm peoples guilds in WvW, tPvP achievments should be made easier. A flawless arguement.

Shakki.3219:

And again a useless post above me.

Why can’t people realize that the Achievement people want to do EVERY daily category for the AP you can get, is it that hard?

No actually – I don’t understand. Why? For what purpose? You want to do them, but you don’t want to do them? kittening what?

Shakki.3219:

And people are complaining because they’re not able to without spending alot of time especially now with the Win tpvp kitten….

But if you’re not a PvP player and are incapable of winning tPvP, then why? To keep up with people on the leaderboards? I guess you just aren’t hardcore enough if you’re not able to do every daily and are going to get the place on the leaderboards, by the way. There’s a word that describes this behavior perfectly btw: Starts with A, ryhmes with Ballistic.

Shakki.3219:

The daily is broken anyways, it should be like: choose 5 pve dailies, 4 pvp dailies and thats it, no more AP after these if you complete any. This makes it truly choosable for every kind of player.

It is choosable. You only have to do 4 dailies to get the chest.

Never thought I’d see the day where the forums would complain about having MORE things to do, but apparently it’s here.
