Guild Wars 2

Yea it’s just for holding walls, doors, bridges, and stairs. Assuming your opponent doesn’t just roll through -.- If you manage to pull it off successfully followed by Ring of Warding it is very…rewarding.

Siege AoE doesn’t have a cap. If it does, then it’s well over 30.

Even big guilds can’t win WvW if they’re outnumbered 3 to 1. It just isn’t possible. The current state of WvW is a number game. After you reach a certain number of people strategy is null.

Think I have it figured out. Gonna go try it XD

how much you got left on upload? And how in the world are you doing any damage without crits lol

Same thing with finishing a downed opponent lol. Downing the carrier pretty much screws you over.

Really guys? You maybe lost a few hundred HP in heals. If you can’t survive without depending on that – you need to roll a new class anyway. It’s really not a big deal. Still able to play a front-line guard in WvW without noticing any difference -.-

Christos de Soufre.3802:

I don’t even use AH and I still manage to stay alive all day against groups. I don’t see the issue here.

One step closer to getting that build of yours rofl. jk

Spread out. They will disperse allowing you to pick them off.

I think you can get the permanent bell from them. I just got the Princess Wand skin.

Oh god why? It’s the choice again… Charmander, Bulbasaur, or Squirtle?

There is a permanent one. I think it drops from gift boxes? They’re on the TP.

Yep I missed my first chest too. Everyone else got exotics XD

It’s a buff to healing. You aren’t regaining Vigor while rolling. More endurance = more rolls = more heals.

haha BG and IoJ NEVER fight SoR with even numbers – ever. At reset we skirmished KnT west of SM. You guys had twice our numbers and all buffs from tower. Still got wrecked haha. I was solo in your backfield str8 rippin noobs with my hammer

If you can’t get 10 people you will lose the tower anyway. Even if you can get 10 people, you will still probably lose the tower.

5 Flawless Snowflakes, 3 Giant gifts, 1 Gulp of Liquid Karma, and a Strength Booster (at 80)

Can you repeat the puzzle immediately to get the chest? or how long do you have to wait

I think they do the download percentage based on # of files, not how much data you have downloaded.

How many golems had to die for this to happen

Not really. SoR won the weekend – obviously the better server in the mix.

WvW meta is fast-response time and giant zergs. Strategy is null when you reach 50 people with supply and blueprints since even fights are rare.

Because Guards/Wars win battles. Blitzkrieg war… rush your line to the back of the enemy – they flip out and run. While they’re panicking/running casters nuke them. If they try to focus the melee they take too long to kill and get nuked or die from retal.

Yea they need to implement dynamic caps. The current system is lame. The server I’m on is way better than the other two, but they gang up on us so they can stay in the current tier. If we had the same number of people on the map, even a 1v2, we would destroy them.

It’s an annoying noob bunker build – completely useless. If you’re not running a staff for walls or focus for swirlies then go play another class. Waste of ele.

Basically the build tries to outlast an opponent. They always open with their knockdowns then try to hit you with Churning Earth. Super predictable.

Did you even test this…?

So… if you all say there is a counter to stealth, can you even name one?

Mesmer stealth is not a valid tactic. Every stealth skill has a 30s CD. Not comparable stealth skills.

Obviously a condition build will lose to a condition removal guardian – there’s no counter-play for stupid lol… use a burst build.

Both of these tactics have counter-play – Thief stealth does not.

Thieves are the only class that lacks counter-play. Stealth has no counter – bad design. It reduces the possible actions the opponent can use. 5 > F1 > 1 is not skill.

The thief class is basically the noobtube of this game. It is designed for less skilled players to feel like they can compete and have fun with more experienced players. The class won’t be nerfed – it’s a marketing tool to include all players, even noobs, in PvP.

lol… the day SoS entered T1 I told you PRX was leaving.

Trading Post is the only non-PvE money maker. WvW drops are a joke as is the reward for taking an objective. In about 6 hours of WvW I make 1g.

Good thing there’s no grind in GW2…wait.. oh darn. Fooled again!

Wouldn’t count on IoJ doing anything smart… ever

Not sure bout SPvP…. but in WvW running a shatter build with GREEN items I str8 rip noob backstab thieves. Guardians are lol… just a matter of how many shatters it takes to drop them – they cant catch you to do damage. If you start to lose the fight just portal out and restart.

Need more group support? Make a confusion bomber and laugh as you completely shutdown zergs by spamming Glamours.

If you’re using GS… you’re doing it wrong :P

Mesmer does take more skill to use than most classes because you must manage your clones. The other easy spike classes (Backstab thief) are the equivalent of noobtubes – they’re for noobs that don’t know how to play, but want to compete with the better players.

Yup. I have to activate Mimic like 1 sec ahead of time… and Echo seems to work when no illusions are active.

Was this nerfed yesterday? I got around 50% less loot this morning. There was a ton of common item drops…

It works in PS2 because the maps are ginormous :P These maps are small after you get used to them.

I think it’s a bug. Before the skill switch Vapor Form didn’t allow you to go through doors. Quite funny that Ele downed skill went from being the worst to the best though.

The issue is that they removed the Stupid Penalty from tower defense. Any baddie can walk out, spam all his skills, get downed, then float back into the tower and res. Hopefully this was just an oversight by Anet…

GW2 is over. The first 2 weeks after launch was it really. The game is WvW, SPvP, and FotM now. There’s no reason to do anything else.

Guild just ditched our weekly WvW to do Fractals.

A wild Planetside 2 appears!

No, there is no reason to leave LA. You can SPvP and WvW from LA, the gear grind and money farming is in LA, bank and TP in LA. The only other thing to do is boring puzzles and exploring – which is quite pointless. All of the maps are empty so nobody will run DEs. All contestable waypoints are contested.

GW2 now consists of: Fractals, SPvP, WvW.

Defending is stupid atm. Attackers have more of an advantage than defenders… Attackers can actually hit people!

ANet increased Portal CD by 30s. A real slap in the face to the WvW community. Pretty sure they don’t intend on fixing portal bombs. They can’t fix culling either heh.

Rendering cannot be fixed to the amount of models that WvW needs.

As for stealth stomping… it is an “Action” button. If it was removed then you couldn’t stealth res/heal – same goes for Mist Form. It should at least un-stealth after the stomp though.

Side note: why can eles go through portals in Vapor Form now?

I think the only WvW updates since launch have been bugs heh… Wall-glitch, orbs, retaliation on carts, SM wall. They supposedly have a different team designated for WvW. There’s no excuse as to why we don’t have new content yet or at least more information on the matter.

Yep. All you can do is sit there watch your dudes have a ranged fight for 15 minutes while using Empower and the heal orb. It’s either that or jump into melee and get focused to death tho.

If you don’t like the GS build try AH Crithammer. It’s ridiculously strong/tough.

If you’re abandoning range, prepare to sit on the sidelines for the majority of your WvW time – dead or alive. Most battles are skirmishing… with an eventual charge. Even-numbered engagements with lots of melee are rare.

40% is fine. Full Knight’s, Berserker Wep, Cleric Amulet + Omnomberry Pie/Sharpening Stone should be around 14k health; 40% crit chance/dmg; 96% lifesteal on crit; 3.1k armor, 2.9k attack, and AH ticks around 80. If you’re using shouts then you usually have SY up for any major fights so 60% crit chance.
