Guild Wars 2

Ergolicious.1507:

You guys really only like Thief among all the classes? That’s a shame

just because we find thief the most fun !
does not mean all thieves play a thief 24/7

i play thief ,ranger , guard , mesmer and engi

but i love thief when i am just playing solo!!!!

S/D = my fav weapon set

but y play it?

people dont play it because it is “good” people play it because they like the move set!

cant wait for black desert online to come to the usa !

This time I don’t even think people will shelf their thieves, they will simply leave the game. ANet talked about this patch bringing lots of interesting stuff to PvP and WvW. We got commander tags with colors, golem mastery and standardized models for teamq. So. Game. Breaking. Omfg.

I for one are seriously starting to doubt that we will ever see any communication between devs and players. A lot of players are giving good and constructive feedback that the devs seem to just ignore. It feels like they live I a bubble with unicorns and rainbows where terms like “everything is working as intended” and “we are working on it” are well used. Their whack-a-mole balancing and all these hard counters just make this game very boring and takes the skill level down.

I heard Wildstar had transparent devs and a good community. Guess I’ll give that a chance… Very sad, because this game has so much potentional. Just too bad the devs won’t listen to their players.

So my prediction is that we will see a mass exodus from the game, not the profession.

lol i am going to steal that "wack-a-mole balancing…. but it is soooooo true …
but u do realize guild wars and wildstar are basically the same company :S

ya i agree +1

revealed = 0 condition removal. 0 survival skills

from the second revealed is applied to u … u are only playing 50% of the thief class because of how many skill depend on stealth :S….

revealed = “OP”
in anything besides pve

=balance team

balance is a headache in this game ….

i like the game … but balance is a headache

no one likes to “deal” with a balance patch …. land lately all it feels like is …

“ahhh another balance patch plz dont mess up my class …. time to find something else to do ‘_’….

balance patches should be fun for everyone if balanced equal

kinda lame just watching the OP wheal spin from class to class

P.S i am waiting for black desert online a sandbox mmorpg … but it is not out in the USA yet

this is a thread again

anything on fire or explodes \m/ ‘o’ \m/

thank you anet – it is a fun game so dont let us down!

no one likes to “deal” with a balance patch … they should be enjoyable for all classes if they are balanced right ….

so even though i am appreciative i got to say

get back to work slackers ! XD

d/p stealth thieves can be easy to counter ….. all u need to do is use pulls and pushes stuns and daze to stop there black powder heart seeker combo ……

idk what all the buzz is about d/p thieves lol but

u break the combo u break the thief ….

edit :
especially if u save your combo breaker when they are low on health trying to run away!

so i have ben playing this game almost sense launch !
i have never seen a precursor lol ….. do i just have the worst luck in the world or what lol

to be honest it is kinda a bummer to be playing this game for so long and never see a precursor !!!! when people i know around me have found 2 or 3 ‘_’

i dont really know what to say …. but u would think they would reward old players

and before i turn this in to a rant.

the “legendary” if they really are that big a money maker ….
dont u think they would have come out with some more skins by now ?

i was fighting a hacker the other day who had perma stealth
and revealed was not working on him !

though he was not useing D/p he was just spamming the utility skill blinding powder or a similar skill.. any time he wanted …

um?? i though we where still in the condition meta … ever sense the new traits and crit damage change to ferocity?

when did we enter a boon steal meta ?

+1 agreed

alot of people have said this …..
but it would be really nice if they listened to the community on this one ….

i would like to know i have a dev looking out for the best of my class & everyones class

yep i watched the live stream for this trait to lol

they said it would add skilled play to the game !

they said—- and i am being serious ….. they said
“u can counter a wars hammer by coming out of stealth and hitting them to gain stability” !!!

y would u do that !!!!! u would still take the damage !!!!

the answer is you would dodge !!!!!!!!!

i tried to find the old live stream when they talk about the trait – but i got lazy

+1

“there would be a reason” —-—-to want to use death blossom in a power build XD ….
well how about that !!! …..

death blossom has just ben the ugly duck in the D/D set for ever XD

i bet u will need to blind each clone ‘_’

i really hope with this change …
they will make a small buff to the acrobatic trait line to improve condition removal !

in the ever increasing condition meta

metas can be strange !

and people sometimes play mindless with out a strategy just trying to get a kill …

S/d has taken huge nerfs with out compensation !

plz buff S/d before making more changes ….

S/d is a really easy build to take out if u are a condi mesmer …..

sword has cleave …. and u will hit there clones … stacking conditions on u

d/d is single target !…. with lots of condition remove :S !!!

Kicast.1459:

Lol…thieves qqing on a patch nor delivered yet….
You have pushed all zerkers outside meta for more than one year…
As long as it is the case and as long as you are meta…you deserve more nerfs.

Honnestly you will in the end deserve more nerf in initiative : regen rate lowered or more expensive skills..maybe both.

Really hope anet has understood the cancer you are for the others.

the only cancer in this game are people who do not care about equal balance for the whole game .

i dont want to play an overpowered thief or a under powered thief !

everyone just wants to have fun …. !!!!
but punishing a class by not updating it.
and letting every class grow around it is not ok

there is a lot of broken small things they can fix with the class !!!!!!!!

by fixing broken stuff and and doing small buffs/ changes to traits everyone knows are trash!
will open up builds so everyone does not get boxed in to one or two builds !!!

no class should be boxed in with so few builds/ skills …..!!!!!!!

lol the thief class gets buy on a handful of skills …… the rest is left untouched

i agree …. even though i like the great sword idea
it would not be single target :S

a mid ranged melee weapon would be awesome ..like a kusarigama

a little more range than a GS and less range than the short bow

stun and wreck like a dark souls troll…../ get gud scrub ! lol

Epidemix Revenge.4862:

caveman.5840:

so some times classes can only play so many rolls

but i was thinking about classes that would have a unique roll in gw2

bla bla bla one came to mind ….. i dont want to type to much so bear with me here

but a “crowd control caster”

a class that focusses on controlling the enemy !

it would be a mix of element, guard, mesmer. and necro …. with some unique skills

i am not going to spend time on talking about skills really …. u have imaginations ! BUT…

take some of the CC/ skills guard necro and mesmer have

mix in some AOE of the elements

and focus on unique skill that can control single target and zerg ……

it would be a light dps class with powerfull cc …….. a truly strategic support build

idk it was just an idea throwing it out there …..
if anyone has unique class/skill ideas plz mention them

Roll-What a ball does.
Role-What a person does when playing part such as a character in a video game . Or the usual or expected function of someone or something.

oops …. a role …. playing a classes role ….
u know what i was saying ‘_’ XD

that was before the condi meta … and increased use of conditions

and confusion does not punish u for avoiding attacks …torment does

on a low hp class this makes a difference

lol the title is demanding !!!! THE NOW!!!!

but i dont think anyone is trying to be demanding … just trying to have a healthy argument XD

i am not asking to buff the whole trait line though lol

and it would not be that rewarding to add a torment remove to pain response

adding torment to pain response is just enough so u can play no stealth build !!!???
it really is nothing
on a trait that fails to remove conditions when u need it. about 50% of the time

pain response —-— is a underwhelming trait

ya i know there is not much reason to go deep in to acrobatics :S

just like u said acrobatics is not a rewarding trait line after the first 3 points

i wish there was a reason to go deep in the trait line …… but the whole trait line is full of outdated traits and junk

i wish they would open up builds!

lol i use lyssa

it is just so much easier to run shadow arts lol

they do not make it easy to play with out stealth ….. :S

just add torment to pain response …. lol it is not even a buff if the trait fails to help u 50% of the time when u need to remove conditions

pain response does not need to remove confusion !
just torment !

just buff up …. pain response

it is a unreliable condition remove- it will go off when u dont need it ….
with a 30 second cool down

the best part are the boons …… it is not total trash

but the condition remove is highly unreliable … getting triggered all the time when u dont need it

and it is all ways on cool down when u do need it lol

thief traps !

so i changed the title ! lol he made me laugh

get from it what u will XD

but the missing roll of the mesmer is more unique cc.. as a deceptive crowd control caster…

a class focused on deceiving the enemies on your position while controlling them with unique skills

it is kinda far from that right now !

i wish it was a strategic support build that controls enemy flow/position by using unique skills

but i am just throwing an idea out there

………. would really help to fill that missing niche roll in the mesmer…. unique cc !!!

lol but +1 u sarcastic lol ……. esplen i agree with u …… lol i need to change the title of this post lol …..

so some times classes can only play so many role

but i was thinking about classes that would have a unique role in gw2

bla bla bla one came to mind ….. i dont want to type to much so bear with me here

but a “crowd control caster”

a class that focusses on controlling the enemy !

it would be a mix of element, guard, mesmer. and necro …. with some unique skills

i am not going to spend time on talking about skills really …. u have imaginations ! BUT…

take some of the CC/ skills guard necro and mesmer have

mix in some AOE of the elements

and focus on unique skill that can control single target and zerg ……

it would be a light dps class with powerfull cc …….. a truly strategic support build

idk it was just an idea throwing it out there …..
if anyone has unique class/skill ideas plz mention them

+1 agreed they are slacking lol

but yet the condis just stack again !
after all of that s/d#2 and shadow step junk …. they stack again like it is nothing

and soon thief will need to hold still in a fight like a sitting duck because there will be mad stacks torment flying around

shame it is not confusion instead of torment

we have low hp and torment is extremely punishing when trying to avoid one hit kills
and hammer cc lol ………..

P.S …. but it is not our fault the developers only care about condi mesmers

and the only people barging about running down a crit mesmer are the trolls!
or bad players just happy to get a kill !

we all just want to have fun !
there is no reason to happily punish people for playing a class they find fun!

if so this is a game not worth being apart of !

anet should not lock them selves away from conversations like this one

there should be more collaboration

if there “right” they should be able to show there ideas to the community
and let us be as tough and criticizing as possible

if they are truly good ideas they will be able to stand through tough criticism

i dont like the policy …. it stops the healthy process of arguing lol

i can understand that the community can be tough!

but that is not a reason to not talk to us about
about how we feel about there game/ideas

really the policy is just a job protector for the incompetent…

it looks bad if the community knows more about the game than the developer
and if the community is showing they can do a better job

it shows they are not confident in there work :S

i wish there was a crowd control caster …..

not just one condition …. but a whole class based on controlling the enemy

plz open up more builds

cant say traps are exciting but your hitting it home

+1

give me a sling shot
as long as it has a useful move set and u dont nerf it with out compensation !

edit : please

+1 to everyone

i would love for this game to be one i want to come back to .
even after new titles come out .

but if they keep this up there wont be much love

thief does not need much but dont forget about us !

the fact we only get nerfs with out compensation of anything has left us with nothing but

broken skills untouched for ever / useless traits / utilities

and out dated skills ……. “pain response” will be broken by a torment auto attack…..
and it is not really all that good now for dealing with conditions !

and nerfs with out any compensation…. s/d larcenous strike

only class that has a whole set of utility skills … “traps” … that r so bad no one would be mad if they got rid of them all together

i am glad they r trying to make the mesmer better i play one to but …
i dont know if torment auto attack is the way to go about it
at least while leaving people in the dark

but thief is falling apart as everything grows around it.

if u dont want thieves to use one build like all thieves
than we need workable traits / utilities and skills …. or we are boxed in to 1 or 2 builds !

if u dont want to fight a bunch of condi thief’s …. than let us play sword dagger and other builds !

cant wait lol …..torment on auto attack ‘____’

plz buff condition removal in acrobatic trait line “pain response” is garbage as a condition remove

+1 buff the boon steal to 2 …
let me love s/d once again lol

this is the kind of compensation thief needs

mmm i am good on wild star… ill pass lol…. i am waiting for black desert online ….a sandbox mmorpg
but it is not out in the u.s.a yet :S

would be nice if anet could shine a lil love to the thieves …
and make “compensations” with some nerfs

but some skills/traits are just broken or outdated

and we r the only class that has a whole set of utility skills …. “traps” cough cough that are so bad no one would miss them if they where not even there

ya i have ben looking for a new game …. one with a fun stealth/ninja assassin feel

thief is my baby !
but anet is throwing them out on the street like an orphan

i just dont like the lack of compensation when it comes to some nerfs
