maybe try a EU server, like Farshive Peaks

far shiver peaks has some nice roamers I remember.
Of try Gunnars hold roamers, one guild TDA right now on our server has some great roamers.

Downed state/Reviving/Rallying can go

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Rallying is not a good mechanic in WvW. It makes it so the few ‘bad’ players can too often determine the outcome of a battle, which is exactly opposite of how it should be.

Also, ambient creatures should not be saving lives.

.

Not just ambient, nothing other than players should be at the very least. I also would love to see the animals in wvw being not killable for easy stacking of sigil bonus. You want your sigil bonus good, go and kill players not moa’s.

Is renokko on EU server? I would say these 2 guys are the best necros I have seen in wvw.

There is one guy in pvp in the sensotix vids that just plays pvp and he is awesome too but I dont think he does wvw.

How to counter thief stealth

in Profession Balance

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

A god counter to a thief should be another thief. Stealth could be seen by other thiefs in stealth like the predator effect or something as subtle at this. And only at a very small range, no thief scouters in tower should be able to see them like that.

Best Guilds NA/EU

aspirine.6852

In EU the guild on my server deserves some credit [INC] from GH
And the best from enemy servers I think must be VII from aurora.

But more important is that in the last couple of months we fought really fun guilds from almost all servers.
Right now we are fighting Augery Rock and I must say they are a class act all of them. Fun fights, no gankers and no disrespect whatsoever. Very impressed with that server. Reminds me of Millers Sound, also a great server.

How do you feel about GW2 right now?

aspirine.6852

Still a good game but with more and more options that are getting frustrated. Be it account bound stuff, ascended gear/weapons, worst drops in a game I have ever played. Too much relaying on crafting and it’s not really crafting, just farming for a long time to finally click that craft button.
Living story is not very living and just another farm spot for every couple of weeks.
I could go on but that would seem I do not enjoy it anymore.

Point of Gating Celestial?

in Crafting

Posted by: aspirine.6852

Time gating is there to ensure you log in every day so that doing so becomes a habit. It has zero gameplay value.

That is it, no deeper meaning. They want you to login everyday or several times a week.

wtf so not only do I need the insignia but also the recipe that makes this armour worth more than all of the gold I got in a year? What ever made them think that this would be a good idea? Why not just the insignia and the items for a craft and make the recipies for karma. Why do they keep making these decisions that make no sense just to frustrate people. I just dont get it.

Fun/good guild and fun server to play on

Other classes are boring

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Thats the thing I never said they were hard, they are boring . I already have a hardmode class to 80 which is thief . The squishiest class in the game. But thief is fast and has no cooldowns which makes it amazing . But some classes just cant move like necro\guardians. Extremly dull to stand still because of the lack of mobility.

And not only they are slow but they cant use many weapons.

Thief is not hardmode class, it’s easy mode. Go make a melee ranger and try again.

Really? And you’ll go bash some mobs before jumping in to defend garri? And were should we get 25 might stacks up 24/7 unless when in a zerg? There’s hardly a moment when I do have 25 might stacks up. We don’t all have Guardians.

Are you talking about WvW? Because this thread is called “PvE Zerkers”.

Well according to Anet WvW = PVE so all changes there will affect both sides. Makes me want to wait for further gearing my toons untill more details about these changes are known.

Night capping - final solution

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Some ppl don’t understand what is all about. 90% ppl are sleeping at night so when most of host server forces are in beds, other time zones few ppl may have their day prime time and can flip scoreboard upside-down. NA players have their own servers with low ping also.

Winning in fair fight is the most important thing in pvp like games, so it MUST be fixed.

On our server (Gunnars Hold EU) and our former matchup 3 people on EB and each BL could take it all. Complete maps and made our server tick for insane amounts during the night. We won that week because of that, completly unfair advantage.

Report him. Use the “support” link in the upper left of this page. At the linked page, hit the “submit a request” link at the top right.

We tried that on our server several times. Besides the automatic response you will get no support and just leaves you more frustrated.

Ranger: Make the pet optional.

in Profession Balance

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

This, stop it that our ranger damage is low specced because of the pet. The pet is useless is most parts of the game where you actualy need it.
I know applying the remove pet option is admitting failure but step of your high horse already.

Conditions

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

You sound like your one-man-crusade against conditions must continue…

Is there a food out there that reduces the physical damage I take by 40%? How about 30%? 20% maybe???? That is what your -40% food does to me if I don’t take rare veggie.

Is there a trait line in every class that gives an overall 30% boost to condi duration? Yes.

Are there more runes that give more duration than reduction? Yes.

Of course, would be something that you can make the conditions last even shorter. They melt of people in the current meta.

Condis Bunkers everywhere

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Yep…huge animations…this coming from a necro…What exactly is the animation? The insta PBAOE that appears under your feet? Even classes that CAN cleanse…meaning they have more than two options to remove conditions cannot keep up with the spammable conditions that classes like necros, warriors, rangers, and engis can put out. The only class that has avoidable conditions would be a PU mesmer where you just avoid marinating in their clones breaking around you.

The point is ….zerkers had to give up survivability for their damage…condis do not. That’s why it’s imbalanced, and that’s why everywhere you go the majority of players are condi bunker.

Of course we have to give up something. Condi does not work so wel on large parts of the game. Be it in PVe or WvW there are times you are just not very usefull because of either insta cleansing of condi or in pve max stacks are reached.

Red Guard is back!!!

aspirine.6852

Please come and have a tour at NA again I still remember a thrill of them when they were on JQ.

Who would want to play where they won’t get many (if at all) gvgs and will only be fighting pug blobs?

Have to ask them, since they’ve done it twice.

Also, all these people hating on Red Guard and their numbers. Doesn’t really work when there are videos of them wiping you guys when they’re heavily outnumbered. I mean, at this point any engagement where they outnumber you is just faster and more convenient.

There is one vid of [sncd] warrior pov where they do just that, I imagine the warrior making that vid is now back again in RG since they stopped and RG returned. I hope so, was awesome to see him play.

They most likely will not have reported you. There is no option that they could us in the report and false reports could/should get them a temp ban themselves.

^^ that is all nice and all, but how do you sugest some ranged used their skills to defend a tower. Less numbers, retal is up for large part of the attackers. And my engi hits multiple targets. The only thing I can do is stop attacking and tab trough enemies to see if I can attack one. Hoping i dont hit anyone else.

So second law is gone, and RG is back. Or is it just that not all wanted to stop and are starting in RG again….

around half or more of [Scnd] team was a RG players. Previous half of core [Scnd] was kicked or smtg when RG joined them after Sacrx left.

Stop talking kitten about Scnd.None of this is true.Just gelly that no one cares about your blob guild.

Wait, I thought RG players went to scnd and VII? Perhaps not all of them but most?

Condi Necros- too op?

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

The problem isn’t so much with the necromancer having an abundance of access to the easiest way to play the game (conditions), the problem is the gear.

Conditions don’t need any other stat but condition damage, to work at maximum efficiency.

The “Dire” stat is maximum damage, with maximum tankiness. This is just wrong, by all logic. Adding it to the game was a massive screw up by anet.

Condition damage = place a few debuffs from range (95% of condition damage in the game is on ranged weapons/skills, 5% melee weapons/skills), then kite kite kite reapply, kite kite kite. It is much easier to win with than direct damage as you don’t have to actively play, condition damage is all passive play, the laziest way to play games.

Now combine the ease of play, with the ease of ranged application, with the ease of the “Dire” stat type, with the abundance of ranged condition spam on necros and engis, and you have a huge problem.

Weird, most thiefs and warriors I talk to have no problem taking down a condi necro.

New map to address the Queue’s due to arrive when there are no queue’s left in any tier.
All the effort gone into an overflow map that has no effect on the outcome of the weekly match and there wont even be an overflow.

You can join EotM whenever you want. It is labeled as an overflow kinda, but it is just another map you can join, like Ob Sanctum.

It has no bearing on server score, because it contains every server (all NA servers are grouped together when joining the map, and so are all EU)

People just love to find things to complain about lol

What’s the use of this map then.
