The fact the erroneous numbers have been allowed to remain this long…doesn’t say much for your ethics.
LOL Man, don’t start preaching about ethics to anyone of us here. Your whole post shows what your ethics are like. Simply put: you’re full of bs. Excuse my ethics. Probably can’t stand the fact that you get killed by rangers. If u want to whine don’t hide behind “ethics”.

People have been whining for 2 years that lb sucks. Now lb is op because it doesn’t suck any more. Keep it up guys.
“i have been reading this ranger forum.
for while and i see that most of you are finally dropping your bows and swapping to mellee.”
That’s what I reacted against. I’m not a fan of bearbow or using bow all the time. I love melee. But going from there to advocating that ranger shouldnt use bow makes as much sense as claiming that warrior shouldnt use bow or rifle.
Maybe you should go to warrior forum and tell them to throw away their bows or their rifles. I love doing melee with sword and horn, but what this guy is preaching is bs.
Was doing fotm lvl 38 with 3 rangers and ele. Went ok until we met fire shaman. Didnt manage. Other 3 rangers all with bear. Ele left. Tried for more than an hour. Then we got ranger number five. Also with bear. Guess what? We didnt manage. Asked for traits, elites that they used. No answer.
Done fotm lvl 38 with four rangers and ele before. Went like a breeze.
Moral of the story: you tell me.
Why don’t you speak for yourself instead. The reason why I am bad looks more appropriate to me. Another load of crap like I’ve seen so often on this forum.
I use the same weapon setup. I added sigil of fire to sigil of force. Gives good damage. Tried running sigil of fire and air instead of force. I missed the extra damage so i switched back to sigil of force.
Hi Ashley
I solved problem. Problem was caused by videocard drivers. Once i had the latest, things worked as they should be. Talking about brandnew pc and video card so i didn’t expect drivers to be cause of the problem.
I have exactly the same problem. Found out that installer moved my files to temporary folder. When i move them to other location and click gw2.exe gw2.dat starts loading, but i dont manage to start the game.
I found out that installer put gw.exe, gw2.dat and gw2.tmp in temporary folder. I put those 3 files in a different location (c\gw2) and clicked gw2.exe. I noticed that gw2.dat was downloading but the main window didnt give the usual download information. When gw2.dat was finished downloading i clicked gw2.exe. Nothing. I tried it as administartor same thing. Anyone that can help me here? Why does the installer put those files in my temporary folder in the first place?
Hi
Bought new pc i7 8gb Ram nvidia gtx 760 windows 8.1 installed.
Trying to install GW2. Installer starts downloading then screen appears asking me if i want to let this program make changes to pc. I click yes then gw2 screen appears for a sec and then just disappears. Have disabled firewall. Same thing. Have run installer as administrator: same thing. It just starts downloading, asks for permission to make changes to pc, after clicking yes it just disappears. Anyone any ideas??

Can’t see why this should be considered to be an exploit. All u do is use the skills that the game gives you. If this is an exploit, why is there a second loot box in the first place? Players didn’t put it there.
Is there any way for rangers to get to second loot box after u kill Mai Trinn? So far i only know about guardians and warriors that can make the jump to the airship? Seems pretty unfair if other professions can’t get to it.
Only make a Ranger if you plan to solo. You won’t be invited to groups.
There should be a penalty for putting such utter nonsense on a public forum. I shake my head when i read this kind of stupidity.
Besides, the active gives u some 8 secs of stability and some xtra damage.
All this whining every couple of weeks about ranger not being viable. If u think ranger is not viable, go play a “viable” class. Think ranger now is in a much better situation than a year ago. I play this “unviable” class every day and I can do everything with it. This ranger not being viable issue is really getting boring.
I didn’t know this was a problem for European players on NA servers. I am indeed a European player on a NA server.

No error messages. It started on Tuesday. I’m not the only one with the problem. Lots of people trying to enter fractals have the same problem. Usually it’s 4 that can enter, one has problem. Before this week i had no problems whatsoever entering fractals.
I’ve been unable to join parties in fractals for some days now. I get prompt to join party, click it nothing happens. Approaching portal only allows me to open my own instance. Relogging, guesting on other server nothing helps. Any ideas?
Think direct damage says it all: u can’t take damage away. Make sure u have enough power and toughness and u can do all high level pve stuff. I use red moa to boost fury and the other pet depends on circumstances. I would try out other pets than bears. I prefer to use pets that give something to party. Running 30 30 10 0 0. Can do melee without any problem. Attack and toughness bit more than 3 K. health 21 k something. Using runes of the soldier and ascended gear. Most important is that u get a balanced build: have enough durability and enough damage output.
I guess other classes can do that too. There’s no doubt that a lot of things can be improved, but reading this forum gets me depressed when i see all the whining going around.
Did another fractal run, asked explicitly for rangers. We were three. One ranger joined but left when he saw three other rangers. Says it all.
My point: last three words
Did a fractal run lvl 20 with four rangers and an ele. Went very smooth. Have done runs with three rangers before. Went not that smooth. So from now on i might ask for rangers only. Rangers poor class?
Like Chopps said: lots of Parrots on forum. You got a few examples of that in thread. Rangers are viable everywhere ikittennow how to play class. Don’t listen to so-called experts on forums that tell u otherwise. I play everything with ranger and i manage everything, but there’s a learning curve. Flexibility is important. Adjust weapons, pets and skills according to circumstances.
What about six runes of the ranger showing up in blue though i only have 3 of them? Visual hiccup too?
I got three superior runes of the ranger and three superior runes of the soldier equipped.
Tooltip of rune of the ranger says 9/6 displayed in red. All six stats of rune of the ranger are blue, though i only have three equipped.
Does that mean i get all six effects of rune of the ranger, though i only have 3 equipped, or is this a bug?
I have three runes of the ranger equipped and three runes of the soldier.

To Zenith: I have to laugh when I read your first line “Don’t be a moron”. I have never claimed in the post you refer to that a ranger does more damage than any warrior. Quite the opposite, in fact. Are you able to read and understand what i wrote in that post? And then you call me a moron? I don’t call people morons, but you definitely seem to qualify.
To Renegade: see my previous posts.
And now I stop posting here because the level of discussion is really pathetic in some cases.
Trollhammer: You’re worse than the pope. That guy thinks his opinions are also “facts”, “the truth” etc. Every opinion that doesnt fit you is “bs” etc. You’re not capable of grasping anything that is beyond your limited pov. Your “reasoning” is full of holes, but that’s the least of your concerns. You’re only shouting people down. What a blockhead. And with that i rest my case lol.
Swiftpaw: nice to see at least someone knows what he’s talking about. These guys are so caught up in their own biases and their own preferences that they can’t imagine that there is more to rangers than what they possibly can imagine.
Using quickness is indeed the key, either by pet swapping or using QZ.
When one of these socalled experts advises u to use axe and warhorn and no longbow, it says it all.
Renegade: tell me how much dps does a warrior do lying on his back? They can only do dps because other classes try to keep them alive. When i get into trouble playing ranger it’s either because i screwed up or because i’m trying to heal or revive a heavy lying on his back.
Each time u do a heavy boss, warriors go ranged otherwise they’re down in a couple of secs, doing a “lot of dps” on their back. Rangers do more damage with lb at range than warriors with shotgun. Typical comments: “Guess this game is not meant for melee; Heal…; Stupid pet…” The only way warriors can do damage is because they’re kept alive by the rest of the group, including rangers.
“One waterfield is not enough”: that might be true. For some heavies an ocean wouldnt do the trick.

Trollhammer: U are simply not capable of making the distinction between facts and your own narrowminded opinions. Calling your opinion a fact doesn’t make it a fact. It just shows how shallow your reasoning is and how weak your arguments. That’s the reason you call your opinions “reality”, “facts” and so on.
I have already admitted that warrior has better DPS than ranger. No argument about that. Why does warrior have better DPS? Because that’s typical for warrior.
I have already admitted that guardian has better healing than ranger. No argument about that. Why does guardian have better healing? Because that’s typical for guardian. I can’t see what point you’re making by kicking in open doors.
My point is that ranger does both which makes the class a valuable supporting class. You dont seem to get that.
Btw: i got a fully geared up warrior. What exotic armour or ascended armour has got to do with reasoning in a decent way I dont know. But then again, your opinions are “facts” and you definitely dont like them to be questioned. Not a very sound base of thinking, and that’s just my opinion, not a fact.

To Trollhammer: “Rangers are bad….” You fail to grasp the difference between an opinion and an argument. Previous quote is not an argument, just your biased statement.
Renegade: Calling a class that can do three tasks simultaneously mediocre shows how biased u are. Like i said: a warrior deals more dps than ranger, guardian heals better, but none of them is able to combine both in a decent way. If that’s mediocre to u, so be it.
Blaming ranger for doing damage at range, which is one of the key characteristics of the class, is on the same level as blaming a warrior for doing damage at close range. Guess warriors are a bit envious at the ease ranger deals damage without taking any.
How do i support warriors? By healing the poor kittens lol.
To Renegade. There’s no ranger that can compete with warrior when it comes to damage. But rangers are very good at support. Warrior can only deal DPS if there are others that heal them when they’re down for x time.
When it comes to support, ranger is among the better. Each of the classes u mention can do one specific task better than ranger, ranger can do all three of them at the same time but at a lower level.
Rangers are generalists not specialists. The keyword is versability.
If u want a team that only consists out of specialists, be my guest but dont claim that a class that can do one specific task better than ranger is therefore a better class. Ranger can do all three of them at the same time.
I have a problem with people that dont know how to play ranger and then conclude the class sucks. It is them that suck at playing ranger. If u expect ranger to deal out as much DPS as warrior u dont know what you’re talking about.

I read a lot of crap here about rangers. When pet is down u lose half of your DPS. Not my ranger. Just finished Arah p.1-2-3. Spent quite some time rezzing guardian and necro. It’s all about knowing how to play your character. Noobs that dont know anything about playing rangers pretend that they are experts on rangers while they barely manage to hold their own class. Big mouths, small brains. I keep away from these people when running dungeons.
Trollhammer, the reality is that u dont have any idea what you’re talking about and you’re too narrowminded to even realize it.
(edited by Zoef.2761)
Rezzing won’t be any problem even if party wipes, if bosses don’t regenerate. So either eliminate bosses’ regeneration, or allow for faster rezzing. That would be a proper balance. Otherwise u just make things harder without no compensation at all and things definitely won’t be more fun. Quite the opposite, I’m afraid.
Well, I know Arenanet tries to be innovative and that’s why i like this game so much. But after playing GW for 5 years and GW2 since its release, it’s the first time I’m really irritated. This should have been a great weekend and it has left me sitting here with a lot of frustration and irritation. That’s not how i want to spend my weekends or play GW2. The new dungeon is a great idea, but the quest chains were bugged. The events are a great lightshow, took lots of screenshots, but that’s about it. Got dced four times, managed easily to log back in three times but didn’t manage to beat number four. Of course my overflow server had nearly killed end boss when i dced for the fourth time. Took me two hours to be able to log in again. No reward like everyone else.
After all the time i spent this weekend, i have a bad feeling. It should have been the other way around.
Arenanet is very good at creating a hype. Why dont u make your next goal to have servers that can keep up with your ambitions?
