Ranger is the kittentiest class.
- Sustained damage sucks
- Burst damage is not there
- Survival? sure but you lose all damage
- Pet useful? not really
All other classes are superior to ranger. kitten ArenaNet kittened Ranger up.
The word is “affected”. I have’nt seen anything.
None of the games except ESO may be a threat, in the west. GW2 will launch in China this summer so no threat really.
“After it takes a few blocks, then it explodes” …no… no it doesn’t work like that. You would THINK that someone that works at Anet that posts a guide would actually KNOW WHAT THE CLASS SKILLS DO.
It explodes after three blocks.
Better spike/burst damage.
The base damage is good, but the spike/burst is total kitten. If Ranger get better burst we can compete in PvE and WvWvW better. Also more weapons will be used in SPvP, no more Shortbow and Sword/Warhorn.
The AoE of the Ranger is also a problem. I think most of the weapons need a rework, or more weapons need to be added.
So.. did you stack more than 25 bleeds? nope
Good question! i think it’s because of focus on all other things that are more important. Like the core features and gameplay.
Yeah like the new shiny guild panel with all the infos you could ever need and the awesome QoL that spares you lots of clicking when dealing with large numbers of items! Or the particle effects slider! Dem features kittenn.
Oh wait…
@OP: Arenanet probably doesn’t have a dungeon team right now. So here’s your answer.

1 Elementalist
2 Guardian
1 Mesmer
1 Warrior
PvP is often a zerg fest or a bunker fest. Why not build PvP around those two play styles?
And stop nerfing PvE to the ground please.
Ranger need a huge change and hopefully they will get such an update in the feature update coming soon!
Was that an satisfying ending? **SPOILERS**

I was Satisfied, but i did expect a bit more. The fight was good, but it felt weird how she died so easy when you got into the solo instance. We’ll get more lore March 18, we’ll see how it goes then.
So how do we all rate the end of LS season 1

I’d say the need to improve the overall story telling and mechanics. It feels like the latest updates have been really good. Flame and Frost had excellent story telling though. Same with the latest ones. ArenaNet are getting close to perfect Story Updates.
What needs to get better is how they polish content and also how repetive the content is, i mean there is two weeks between LS updates, so the content need to be fun to play over and over, also needs to be bug free and rewards has to be good.
So, um, you want individuals able to tailor their skills and effects? How will ANet handle balancing that, exactly?
The trait system.
March 18.
There should be a tab for weapon traits only. Letting us customize more into our weapons so it fits our playstyle. The different tabs should be as following!
- Weapon Traits – Customize your weapon skills.
- Utility Traits – Customize your utilities. (Including elite)
- Class Traits – Customize your class. (Passives and such)
An example on weapon traits.
Shortbow on ranger has some bleeding/crippling/daze. Instead you want the skills to give boons to you and your pet, as you are a Beastmaster, so the bleeding etc are removed and instead replaced with these boons.

Not rewarding enough chests and cores.
ArenaNet are the masters of nerfs.
Considering I got no loot at all from 6 defeated knights yesterday, I’d say it is a buff.
The patch is from today.
You get one chest at the end of the event which rewards some greens…
kittenty patch. Go back to how it were at first day. 6 chests for each Knight.
I haven’t played on my Thief for a while but there’s a change to this skill. The 25% passive boost to movement speed is gone. Why and what trait/skill replaced it?
This nerf wasn’t needed. Now it’s not appealing to do the event more than for Achievement and story.
Spoiler alert: You probably weren’t supposed to get 18 in the first place.
Agreed. It was too much in too short a span of time.
18 chests are better than 6. 3 cores are better than 1.
If you don’t agree, uninstall game.More loot =/= better game.
More loot = more loot = bigger profit
18 chests are better than 6. 3 cores are better than 1.
If you don’t agree, uninstall game.

Give me all the loot and I’m fine.
Dailies and Monthlies should have new tabs.
- Dungeons – Side Quests
- Open World – ….
- SPvP – …
- WvWvW – ….
- Fotm – ….
Maguuma*
Primordus*
Yeah. People have hinted at Maguuma Wastes for like over a year now.
If you want some advanced gameplay you should go either Mesmer or Elementalist. Necromancer is one of the easier classes to play.
I heard ArenaNet removed loot from Knights.
Why are we not getting loot from Knights? before we got 6 chests and chance to get those Cores needed for Colour Ascended backpiece.
Not killing the Knights anymore. You get nothing except the chest at the end after defeating Scarlet.
How do i get it?
Put graphics on low settings and you won’t crash.
Solution to your dilemma: Learn to play and get better.
I think i’ve read ArenaNet are going with LS and not PS. PS was bad, and didn’t really add anything dynamic to the world of Tyria. The PS also messes a lot with future updates and keep getting in the way. LS is the way to go.
Zhaitan’s minions will disappear from Orr etc.
Don’t be so sure. Have a source on this, or are you assuming?
I’m assuming. I’m pretty sure they will change Orr. As the Living Story is the story after the death of Zhaitan. We cleansed Orr and now there’s a new Elder Dragon rising.
So it was the Jungle Dragon Mordremoth after all. Not really a surprise. Good stuff though. The cinematic was great and i bet we will see some really sweet stuff soon. Tyria will change. Zhaitan’s minions will disappear from Orr etc.
I don’t think that would be a good idea. If you could get X amount of weapons with ONE legendary, older legendary owners would feel betrayed :l
The old legendaries should be improved then and made into all types of weapons.
The best way to make legendaries would be class specific legendaries. These legendaries can change forms depending on what weapon you want to use. By a simple click you can change the legendary weapon from being a GS, to being an Axe, from an Axe to a Warhorn. Etc. As it is Class Specific, it can only transform into the weapon types that class can use. All the transformations will be the same style, same effects etc.
I played Mesmer. They are OP. Especially Asura Mesmer.
Well. Hopefully it’s not something unrelated to the current Guild Wars lore.
There’s hands for each of the five races.
The important thing to take away from this (speculation) is that since China will be synchronized LS-wise with NA, and the fact that they just ended closed beta, we may not see the next LS season until open beta ends in China and they officially release.
Open betas usually last a few months, and no announcement has been made for official release, so the next LS season may not start anytime soon.
Expect it to come out mid summer
If you read the article they said the open beta would last for two weeks.
I don’t play as much games anymore. GW2 is a very good game and it’s still my main game after all this time. I’ve been playing since closed beta.
There will most likely be a free weekend when the feature patch releases.
- I would love to see more random events in each fractal and also make the higher tier fractals much more rewarding.
I’m not sure but i can assume that King Doric is buried beneath LA and his blood is needed to unseal the magic of the Bloodstones. Scarlet sent her Twisted Marionette to southern Shiverpeaks and Maguuma Wastes isn’t unlocked as a zone. Most likely there is a Jungle Dragon in Maguuma Wastes, and she needs the power from a Bloodstone to defeat it and get the second Bloodstone in Maguuma Wastes.
So. King Doric was the first king of Lion’s Arch. He was crowned by three gods and his blood was used to seal the magic of Tyria within the Bloodstones. These stones have been protected and guarded by King Doric’s dynasty. The Lionguard?
So my conclusion is that, Scarlet is after the Bloodstones, which is located below Lion’s Arch. With these stones she can gain Eternal Alchemy. The true magic.
Also. Zhaitan attacked Lion’s Arch. Was it because of the Bloodstones or was it because LA is the central hub of Tyria?
Hey, aris: We don’t have an official Instagram, but it’s something we might consider doing in the future.
If we were on Instagram, what would you like to see on an ArenaNet or Guild Wars 2 Instagram feed?
Stuff from the office, like baby quaggans, art from the art team and stuff like that.
Doesn’t change the fact that they didn’t listen to the community and revert the Watchwork Mining Pick to the same level as the previous Infinite-Use Tools.
Not like I care to be honest, complaining about virtual assets like these is such a first world problem.
Sorry but did the majority of the player base really think the Watchwork Mining Pick was supposed to be removed or have its 20% chance of sprockets removed? no.
