Guild Wars 2

Darkness.9732:

For me ranger isn’ t a balanced class.
It’ s totally broken.
No survival skills, No decent F skills ( if our pets die we can’ t use our lame F skills LOL ) No matter what build you play all the other professions if played decently they’’ll stomp ranger.
Rangers been waiting for some love for our class ( The longbow isn’ t balanced at all becouse you have 0 survival if you use it, whereas other classes despite running zerg builds have many survival skills too : balance stances, stealth and so on) and this love never came.
So man my suggestion is : Don’ t play ranger. It will never be competitive.

A strong warrior will stomp a strong ranger, a strong ele will stomp a strong ranger,and so on…

Lol, I dont even know what to say.

Did any of you play GW1? The WvW rank, together with the PVP rank should give you another currency(Faction in GW1) you can spent on things. Like the Zaishen keys in GW1 that you could use on the island to open a specific reward chest.
This chest could give you any drop in the game, and cant remember for sure but I think it also had some drops specific for this chest.

kitten it, you wasted a complete year of waiting for teq. Now the first chance you get will be beginning of 2016. Better mark your calendar.

The recent survival the fittest Condition Ranger is pretty good against most classes
“1 on 1” Excellent condition reapplication ability and excellent cleanse, reasonable sustainability with lots of dodges and protection on roll.

However, when put into a group fight (3 v 3 or more), it suddenly becomes much less effective. It is vulnerable to focus fire and chain CC in a group fight. The condition is more easily cleansed by Warriors, ele, and engi too. (aoe condition removal)
I do not suggest this spec to put into a big scale fight because a decent premade will absolutely destroy you with chain CC :/

On the other hand ranegrs are used to that arent they? Even with my power ranger(heh) I do not take on the melee train, I take on the squishies on the outside, and that would still be very possible with condi ranger I think.

Well to be really honest the new content in GW1 made the game more fun. The new areas were way more fun to vanquish than poor old prophecies. I must have vanquished nightfall/cantha more than a few times in total. And only one time prophecies because of the vanquishing title. I dont mind the power creep, and I dont mind the old content being kinda obsolete if this means the new content will be superior. Like it was in gw1, by far.

FrouFrou.4958:

I want them to be friendly, like in Disney movies. I want them to dance and sing with me! And then kill everyone.

You would kill thumper?

Novuake.2691:

Or you could disable autotarget?

Disabled from day one. Still things that moa’s and wolves are my enemy instead of players :/

Tribio.8531:

If you wanna make them friendly to you, wouldn’t they be enemy to your enemies?
I’m more a fan of just plainly removing all that PvE stuff.. I wanna see PLAYERS in WvW, not some silly moa’s..

Sorry, I meant friendly to everyone. Also makes people earn their bloodlust stacks

Hi all,
Because of the terrible targetting system in GW2 I wonder if things would be a bit better when all wild life is just friendly. Moa’s, wolves those kinds of things in WvW.
I cant count the times I am right next to an enemy and my targetting system turns to that moa instead of the enemy team member.
What do you guys and girls think about that?

(probably mentioned before, but hey that search on the forum :/)

A wolf is also not my enemy in WvW, how come these invis chars have it so much easier with the broken targetting.

After a while you get tired of going against the game AI and you might want to fight something that fights back. I know you said WvW is not your thing OP, but I would not throw away perfectly fine armor.

I think every server wil attack the weaker one first for the points :/ I dont like it but who am I to tell people what to do.

Today in the gemshop, customize your backpack, As if to annoy engi’s even more

I hope it’s atleast the whole left and top part of the map. Come on it’s an expansion, it’s suppose to more than just a few small maps.

Do a complete boss run with guild wars champ timer, and see how many zerker people get killed during a simple bossfight :/

I doubt even the best of the best pc can save you from fps drops in WvW when zergs collide. SM fights or even garrison fights where entire zerg fight is not my pc, it’s the server that cannot handle it. All that is left is pressing 1, 1, 1, 1..

Those are only good for the already dominating server of the 3 :/

I hope not, do you want even more hate for the thief? How about invis sniping, wouldnt that be fun.

I noticed a troll from our server got banned too. He already got a new account

This is how you set up a ranger for max LB damage. Rune of Pack give 2% less crit chance then Rune of the Ranger, but offers 175 more power, this power in turn bumps up your damage more then the added ferocity from ranger runes.

Correct DPS rotation is: RAO, Signet of the Wild, Quickening Zephyr then use Rapid Fire. End result should be around 13-15k max on the heavy golem, upwards of 17k on light golem, depending on how lucky you are with critical hits.

PRO-ranger here, all go away!
Ranger runes gives you 7% of raw damage output! You, ranger-hater.
Also “RAO, Signet of the Wild, Quickening Zephyr” sure, you can use it every time just on demand. And only noobs will use QZ, because you need 2 dodges to avoid RF completely, but with QZ it’s enough only 1. Genius, just genius.
Also, do I need to say, that QZ do not increases your damage – what point in placing it to rotation?

hey, there PRO ranger.

The reason to take quickening zephyr, IS TO KILL EM BEFORE THEY REALIZE THEY SHOULDA DODGED IN THE FIRST PLACE.

It is also a handy thing to have, WHEN YOU WANNA MAUL PEOPLE BEFORE THEY KNOW THAT THEY SHOULD DODGE.

It is a stunbreak, so unless you expect massive hammer stun spam, it can more often then not prove more potent then LR, because you can use it both offensively and defensively.

The more you know.

That can only work against a very noob player, or one of those people that have some serious reflex problems.

You mean like most people in a zerg.

Axe or dagger
But didnt we already see the shield for mesmers? Perhaps we get more than one ok.

Not just gandara I hink, I have been having extreme lag on our BL too. I’m on gunnars hold. And yesterday evening it was particularly bad.

I don’t get it… how are people saying this isn’t a lot of loot? The value of what he got is roughly ~3000g. He can buy 3 full sets of ascended armor, or a legendary weapon after just 6 weeks…

That seems quite reasonable to me….

That’s not loot, that is just gold. I dont play games to make gold, I already do that in real life.

And also, where do you buy this ascended armour?

You can buy everything else except the Vision Crystal directly from TP. With the addition of Silverwastes getting Vision Crystals is no longer a problem. Effectively yes, you can buy ascended from TP.

Weird i will check tonight, never seen any ascended armour on the TP.

In the off chance that you’re not just trolling, no you can’t buy the actual end product in the TP, but you can get 3 of the 4 components (that is, the 2 parts and the inscription/insignia) from TP, which are the main bulk of the work.

Sure you still need to level a crafting discipline to 500, but that’s also easily solved by having enough gold.

Previously getting the mats for the Vision Crystal was the most time consuming part, as it required running world boss events, dungeons/JPs and champ farming. Now with Silverwastes chest farming everyone is practically swimming in ascended mats and skill point scrolls, so crafting Vision Crystals is the least time/money consuming part of the equation.

No I wasnt trolling, was actually hopefull I could buy the armour. I have neither the mats nor the crafting 500 dicipline. So I was just wondering if I missed some filter.
I dont do the silverwastes that much, mostly wvw, and the drops there are not that great

With the shield I imagine it will be a more defensive playstyle that mesmers get.

I hope you can boost your toon, that is the main reason I am saving on xp boosts and level boosts.

Zelanard.5806:

Its not that we are afraid to get killed… its that we don’t want to spend time doing things we don’t like to do while playing a game to have fun…

I’m sorry but that does not sound right. Why is completion different in pve from wvw? Same boring last points of interest and some vistas. The only difference I see is that in one part of the map is that you can get killed while in pve you cannot.

Linken.6345:

well as i have seen daggers made for throwing i havent seen greatsword that were made for it really so that point is kinda mooth aspirine

Warrior GS skill 4?

Why are some people so affraid to get killed in this game? Nothing will happen to you in real life you know.

If it’s an upscale chances are I will let him go, or even not attack in the first place. Unless he tries to fight me.

Linken.6345:

aspirine.6852:

Dagger, warrior with a ranged weapon is just plain stupid in my book.

well since you can throw daggers i guess we will have to get melee staff then

You can also throw your GS, does not make it a ranged weapon now does it.

Dagger, warrior with a ranged weapon is just plain stupid in my book.

Gotejjeken.1267:

Wow, a topic about Ranger being OP. Seriously.

Anyway, LB is a terrible weapon IMO. But fear not, it will be replaced in a few months by the staff XD.

Well on my work I watch a very nice and good ranger stream on twitch. He has several builds and one of them is power LB ranger, and he only roams. The amount of people he downed with his LB alone is insane.
And for zerg support it is also a pretty good weapon, most of the backline ele’s go max damage so you can shoot their heads of from a far.

bump for great justice…

Anet, a moa is not my enemy. It will never be my enemy so please fix the broken targeting.

Guys is this build from Osicat still working?

It’s a bit old :/

Tradepost, because there are no drops in this game, there is no endgame.

Ayrilana.1396:

aspirine.6852:

Well Anet, how about you discuss this?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/gw2/I-just-opened-13985-bags/first#post4755387

How do you even try to explain this utter crap what you call drops.

If they increased the drops rates to how people want them, those highly valuable items people want would eventually no different than the blues, greens, and rares that people common toss aside and consider “utter crap” drops. If everyone had easy access to everything, like you would in a single player game, how long before people get bored and stop playing?

Unlike many other games, GW2 also has a loot system where everyone gets loot and the rolls for what they get is done individually. You don’t have it where in some games people form a raid and then have to decide who gets what using a DKP system. Doing all of the content is also infinity easier than in other games and you get so much more opportunities for loot.

These are just a few of the reasons why we have what we have in this game. Would many people still be doing Silverwastes if everything had a near 100% drop rate? Even at a 50%, a large percentage of people would have all of the drops. What reason would they have to continue playing that particular content?

Well if you played gw1 you would know what Anet did right in the past. The drops there were hard, but fair. This game just has no loot, there is noway in hell you can say that playing for more than 2 years and not a single good drop is good for any game.

Godmoney.2048:

You all still like the TP and real money AH now? Enjoy these pathetic drop rates? I remember when Diablo 3 was like this. You know before they removed the real money AH and raised the drop rates. Now Diablo 3 is a very popular. Huh, what a coincidence.

I’m sure everyone enjoys playing a game for years though and never seeing a single high value drop though right? I know I don’t but hey I must be the weird one.

Man I remember that, and I thought no game could ever be as bad as vanilla diablo 3. And now there is gw2, and no game can take its no-loot-crown.

Well Anet, how about you discuss this?

And they say GW2 drops never give you anything. I mean look at that data this clearly means that… No wait, that is without a doubt the worst drops any game has ever had.
Anet you should be ashamed with the loot.

Calypso.2578:

I’ve seen roamers successfully use Staff/Sword+X. I prefer GS because of my aggressive playstyle. The burst is so great. I use GS/Staff or GS/Sword+X.

Man what’s wrong with your FPS in your vids It’s like a slideshow.

Should have been Elona in the first place. :/

Update the game engine so it can handle massive amounts of people. This is after suppose to be an mmo right.

What guild is he in? I noticed some weird thief from MS going in and out our closed tower this morning.

Avoid the event zerg and you will be fine, unless you are a new char. IN that way you are kinda screwed to level that day in that map where the zerg meets the events.

Dont you just love it when they completly avoid all of the reset questions.

Seems like Elona Reach can finally get into eternal battlegrounds. Finally some fights

I’m on Gunnars hold, we can enter, but our foes Elona Reach cannot. This is not fair, reset please…
