Guild Wars 2

Best thread ever!

The problem is not exactly the downed state, the idea is cool, the problem is that some professions have stupid skills that make you take more time to finish then than you took to kill it.

In WvW it is also quite annoying when you kill a Thief and he just teleport far away at least twice.

Fine. Good something else and stop crying.

Columba? From AION?

Anyone knows how WvW is right now? Were we night capped?

You can have fun even in a loosing server, you dont need a zerg to have fun just get organized.

They could at least limit the transfer by user… something like you have the right to do only two transfers… after that you may not transfer anymore. This would hold those users that like to go to the winning side.

I really love WvW, it has somes issues, but it is the most fun thing to do in this game for me… so I have compiled my personal wishlist to improve it… maybe this post can be used by other players to concentrate suggestions for Anet

1. Rankings – we really need a website, or something inside the game with rank info, similar to the achivements screen we have. Rankings by Kills, caravans destroyed, succesfull sieges, sucessfull defenses… etc. etc. This rank could be by player, server and guild.

2. Armor repair, make it cheaper… I still have to better understand it but it looks like we pay more if we do not have the orbs… I am not sure… but fact is 1 silver and some copper is too expensive…. or at least make the armor last longer.

3. Squads, 100 gold to become commander is way too expensive… we need more organization tools, guilds should be able to create parties with more than 5, or we could see on the map all our members as they were in the same party.

Those are my first thoughts… I am certain there is more to come.

Wolverine!? I want healing factor!

Yesterday night on Darkhaven Borderland we had a lot of fun, we could organize ourselves and take back most of our forts and towers…. we just comunicated better using the chat, telling where Yaks forces were and how many.

Ir proves that if more people come we can do a better stand, this match is over Yaks won but we can have some fun and slaughter some of them on the way.

Hope to see more people tonight.

Agreed, people are way too desperate… the WvW have not even reached its first month.

You can make a build to be a good DPS, but I think it is easier to think as tank… our habilities are more focused on that. If you really want to be a hardcore DPS try the Warrior or Thief.

I just think the shield should have a block skill similar to the Focus one, or even the third skill from the mace… or even better similar to Warrior block skill… I envy them when I see they using it.

Agreed… compared to others this skill is ridiculous…

This is a opinion thread just that… he began saying he was in a “semi-rage” mood.

If you miss the one burst “Ikittenyou” strike… go back to the game you played before, this is not going to happen in GW2, and in my opinion this is not a flaw but a merit. I just think that any class that can one shot kill you is ridiculous and demands no skill to play… here people says the Warrior have a skill close to that but I can not say anything about it I have not played Warrior yet and did not see any of them one shot me.

Never even checked them, I am not an instance lover… but try to look at karma armor, I am almost sure that there is one option with healing power and toughness.

Never happened to me either… and I use retreat all the time, sometimes just to get the extra aegis.

I have used the shield so far, but just gave a chance to Focus lately and dont want to come back to the shield. The 5th skill of shield is cool but Focus is far away more usefull both in PvE and PvP.

I just use the scepter to hit people on fort walls with the are skill, it is weak but enough to make some of them move away for while… but for any other situation it is quite useless.

Take a look at the Karma armor, and armor from badges of honnor, honestly I do not remember any armor with Power + Precision + Vitality, but there are some different combinations for Karma armors, combinations that you dont have on crafted ones.

For example I was going to use the Valkyrie set (Power + Vitality + Crit. Damage) but I found the exotic 80 karma armor with Power + Vitality + Toughnes that is exactly what I wanted.

Same for me in Darkhaven server. Just need this skill point to comple Cursed Shores.

I got to 80, and have done the personal campaings up to 76 or something… and there was nothing to do with my spirit guardian, the wolf.

Only when I had to kill the Jotun king there was mention of the wolf spirit, I do not know if it changes according to your choice on character creation.

I got Wolf just for fun, and beacuse it is my guardian spirit, but it is almost useles… I prefer to keep my utilities skills…. but Leopard has some nice advantages, stealth is great for PvE.

Did not read all the threads… but I do not think crafting is hard in GW2, the last MMO I played was much more harder… so hard I consider GW2 to be easy on craft.

I like the skill 5 of the shield, but I think the skill 4 could give us some blocks.

Tome of Courage is ok, I agree that we could get a protective shield or something like that while using it, but I like it anyway.

Tome of Wrath, I dont like it… I expected more from it and dont think it is really worth in combat.

Renewed Focus, duration is too short, and cast is too slow. I would not say it is useless I have used a while but dont think it worths a slot.

Karl McLain.5604:

Hammer love is already in the works!

When!? Please make it a little bit faster and I will gladly change my GS for a hammer.

It is not mandatory, I used the hammer for a long time, I like it a lot but it is too slow, so I prefer to use the GS, but for PvE I do not think the GS is a necessity.

I do not think there are too many mobs on WvW, I think the quantities are ok… but I really would not agree with the Dragon idea, sorry.

If you stay near the forst, mainly the bigger ones, you will probably find more zergs and people that hit you and run into guards… thank god there are no skills that can burst you with one shot… as in the old game I played…

I could find some interesting 1v1 in WvW, not so comom to happen but not that rare too, when I am solo I try to run far away from the main objectives and always find someone doing the same.

I wish the Guardian had more health…

But I understand that we would become too hard to kill.

I like Mace+Shield combination, specially to tank veterans or when there too many mobs,.

Usually I go with GS and change to Mace+Shield when need to hold a lot of damage. Did not try it in PvP yet.

Hello fellow Guardians, just to share your thoughts about the other professions in PvP. WvW is ususally zerged but I had some nice opportunities for some 1v1.

For now in my experiences I had the most trouble with Mesmers… just hate the amount of conditions they can throw on you and those mean phantasms! lol

How are you doing fighting other professions?

I cant say exactly where they are, I dont remember now but I know there is one near an instance entrance. The only problem with the Karma set is that each piece of armor have a different set of attributes. I am interested in the chestplate because it has Power, Vitality and Toughtness, I do not remember the other pieces but they are all different.

I do not know if you can find the other pieces with same attributes in other karma sellers.

Yes… focus on discoveries, and remember to use combinations with filigrees and gems they create better jewels and also count as discoveries.

Why not? I play as a Guardian and most of the time I am on melee weapons (greatsword most of the time), and it works just fine. I only use the scepter when sieging forts in WvW to hit people on the walls.

But about your question, probably the Elementalist, I am not sure because I have not played other professions so far.

But they are invisible. They become visible when you pass near then or when you talk to the NPCs that explain the map to you, they tell you where are the people that need help, that’s why the hearts become visible.
