Guild Wars 2

kittening get a guild group going. face another guild group. congrats, it’s now GVG.

i dare you to solo dungeons.

random agro. i got target locked even when im downed and there was a party mate centimeters away from the mob and i was like inches away.

i got rares from drops even without magic find. it was a level 50s item though.

there are 2 types of pvpers.

1.) Those who want to pwn noobs and farm their title.
2.) Those who want to pwn better players and give them the middle finger.

Game mode doesn’t matter.

So this paid tournament is for the #2 type of players.

HERO.2057:

Every movement was magic, every swing of your weapon meant something, everything was calculated, like a match of chess, where your ability to predict your enemy was crucial.

i literally loled.

War Machine and the Last Pride are now PvE guilds. So there.

Guild Wars 1 is old now. Why infuse old mechanics in a new game? it’s like mixing rotting bad apples to freshly picked apples.

the only thing i loved about guild wars 1 is the skill “mending”. and it is carried over to guild wars 2.

im so happy with it. i have no complaints

my character is level 80 and when i get downscaled by doing the Caudeceus Manor Story my total armor goes up to 900ish. I have transmuted armor and Lieutenant Mobs and Sniper mobs 1 shots or 2 shots me and im dead. i think that my armor is not giving the right stats when it is downscaled.

Carrion is the best choice for pve condi rangers. In wvw carrion too coz you don’t want to be 1 shotted by a treb or 3 shoTted by a zerg. Just be mobile or position yourself properly so you will apply the bleeds. Even at 14% crit chance a crit can still pop out.

Long cooldowns and the pets aren’t that even sturdy. Buff please. Shorter cooldown or make the pets stronger.

Prolly they inhouse tested 4 SB rangers and 1 guardian and found out how op the build is.

I say stick to what they have. Make paid tourneys rated and don’t ever implenment the old boring gw1 gvg in gw2.

Very long cooldown. Pets die easily. Please fix.

I was so impressed that I gave them a 110 dollar tip via the gem trade.

free tournaments will soon be 5vs5 randoms when paid tournaments are up. be patient.

i was a staunch believer in 5v5 randoms but i changed my mind. 8v8 has the buffer to take care of leavers. and it is supposed to be the perfect place to rank/glory/(non tourney) title farm. also it is the perfect way to just jump in and pwn some people without that much expectations from your team mates.

is it true that if you go tourney and win, this two titles will record your wins? because i was in the impression that champion illusionist is for tourneys and the illusionist is for the 8v8 hotjoin.

Heritage Armor baby!

i got 2 slivers salvaging a meh item.

please cite the source. maybe you pulled it out from yourkitten

everybody could do it so it is not an issue or exploit. if everybody can do it then no one is getting unfair advantage.

it is you who is posting nonsense since you already know and we do that guild wars 2 and guild wars 1 are completely different games.

Auto-attack? lol

why compare AB to Conquest? Don’t you even know that the profession mechanics also changed?

yes, your 3 2 1 spike build doesn’t work. it’s not your old boring deathmatch where you can kill the guild lord and /resign. i’m not forced to grouping myself to 8 people anymore. small scale fights count a lot. you need to be skilled 1 vs 1. in Guild Wars 1, 1vs1 is non existent.

how about putting some kind of a marker to the clones so we could separate the player from them? an asterisk maybe.

they could do the variety of pvp arenas seasonally. like the nba, they have a single mode of play during the season, and when the all stars comes, there is the dunking competition, three point competition, etc. all stars comes only once a year so that could be something to imitate.

Deathmatch GvG is as old as your grandmother.

did you use voice chat? coz i am assuming that you didn’t.

they are called thief. they sneak at you.

it’s a skill to catch a fly using the chopstick.

The tourney system provides you an estimate that the team you’ll be facing in the last round is as skilled as you since they also beat 2 teams just like you. But if you indeed want to face skilled teams, wait for community or guild sponsored tourneys in customized tourney srrvers/private servers where the best of the best will surely be invited. And I believe that this is arriving to follow.

The game allowed variety of builds to be made. So finding the most effcienyt and the most easy to play builds are the goal. Why would I punish myself playing a hard class to play. I play to relax and win some. If you want player skill or if anet eanted a pvp game purely based on player skill, they shouldve made 5 premade classes and the mathces are mirror mtaches of the premade classes.

The tourney system is the matchmaking itself. The team that you’ll be facing in the last round did the same thing that you did – beat 2 teams. So you beat two teams and the other team beat two teams and it is an estimate that you have the same skill level. However if the other team roflstompped you, that means they are just better than you. But if you got to the last round without voice chat and the other team stomped you, it is most likely that the other team has voicechat.

Skill, amulet, weapon or probably armor swapping adds more to the strategy. And if you lock your build and items when you enter a tourney, that means your limiting yourself to the thingsd that uyour setup can only do for you. Remember you won’t zone in an outpost after a win and its best of 3 rounds. Also you face different teams throughout the round. Confining yourself in a set setup will be rock papers scissors because its mostlikely that the other team has a build advantage over you.

I left other forums and chose to write here because its the official forums. Arena net maintains it and every post that I make will be in a nets radar.

You didn’t get the point either. Even there’s a matchmaking existing if the player pool is gonna be the same then you changed nothing. This is a new game and most of the players are still getting used to it or just trying stuffs or maybe they take time to mature. There are fast learners and slow learners. Add to the pool the talented ones which most likely is the guild that you faced. Development of the meta takes time and it warrants that all efficient possible builds are fielded and are tried and tested. Now, only ther flavors are being played and there are still lots of build combinations that are not yet made.

If you’re winning against all other teams and suddenly gets stomped by a guild team, that means you faced noob teams, which is mostlikely in a game that is lkess than one month old. It takes half a year to develop a metagame. And this meta may be a polymorphic metagame if balancers don’t exercise firmness and easily give in to whines etc. You winning against noob teams and getting stomped by a guild team is not related to metagame really but an indication of the discrepancy of skill level.

What imbalanced gear and add ons are you talking about? Everything is available to the player so there won’t any be gear advantages. The game is based on building and what I’m talking about is the nerfing of unconventional builds because of the high regard of the balanced build.

kitten balanced environment. Small scale fights is the pinnacle of skill.

If balancers will have the same mindset as GW1, then kitten this game will just have one generic balanced build that will perpetually played. Team or character builds that will overpower this balanced template will be nerfed to uselessness and well see mirror matches of balanced builds once again. Which sucks. But I expect this to happen because as they say they expect this to be an esport. So yeah, same old kitten again.

How do you even define a balanced build in this game mode. The aim is to capture 3 points and wait the scoreboard to tick to 500. So the optimal team build is the most effiecient build that can do so. You can call it Fotm but one thing is sure imposing your gw1 balanced build that works in a full team death match or npc kill is not the same as the conquest aims. The team build that you might have may require duplicate or pentacate characters, but as long as the roles of them satisfy the goal of conquest, then this build will be the one that will be used. I hated anets delusional regard for this balanced build concept in gw1 and nerfing all other builds so this balanced build can be played perpetually. And good thing that this conquest gamemode in gw2 disregards this high regard for the balanced build.

Rank is just an indication that you’re playing PvP. It tells you your experience but it is not an indicator that YOU’VE TEAMED UP WITH COMPETENT PEOPLE. But rank is not bad at all. It’s like the PVP version of LEVEL.

And for me, I admire builders and theorycrafter more than players. There are superb builders who are average on playing and there are just players who play a build handed to them and do it superbly. Sure there are also people who are skilled in both realms.

Anyway, I’m rank 17 and I will farm more in 8?8 hotjoin. Bystating this, I would expect that you would ignore what I said. I don’t give a kitten anyway.

i love it the way it is. insignias on the chest. i can see the back side of my char. no extra cloth waving when i run or jump. plus, people will look at you funny when you wear capes on the streets.

go level up your pve character i guess.

misrepresentation. and maybe she trademarked her name or something like that.

anybody tried this on an HD 7770?

i would understand a Mac port. But Linux?

Computers are preloaded with Winblows. I would think that a Linux port will be necessary if at least half of the computers sold in the market is preloaded with Linux.
