Guild Wars 2

no matter how long u take a break u come back and the game feels like nothing happened when u where gone …

except maybe for lions arch because it looks like a trash dump now

rapid fire is the one channeled skill that u need to use both dodges just to dodge part of the skill ….

And again, why is this fact problem now? The recent change only helped the character targeted by RF, by making it faster so it’s much easier to avoid the whole duration of the RF now, especially when used with quickness.

This makes your point invalid, because total damage of the RF hasn’t changed, so just like that….

y would u waist quickness just to use it on rapid fire?
what a waist of a utility

if they come out with new weapons after black desert online is released
it will be so sad

it will be tough for me to keep up support

and just to be clear I don’t really think rapid fire is totally “OP”
trying to keep this short

but the stealth tracking is a bit of a problem ..
or the number of dodges it takes to avoid it

and there is a number of ways they can fix it

but all I am trying to say is some small tweaks could fix it and ranger should be buffed in return

it stands out from all channeled skills because most of the skills can be dodged in one move .

I can not agree that they should change all channeled skills .
because no other channeled skill has as many multiple hits as rapid fire
with that kind of range and damage

it makes blind and ageis useless

but ranger should be buffed in return for any changes to rapid fire

I think changing the stealth tracking rapid fire would be a good change ….
but what is buffed in return is yet to be decided

There are a great deal of factually false statements here. Such as stating that you need two dodges to avoid the entire skill. That is false. As well, there are multiple skulls that offer 10 hits and have the exact same duration or more. I can only guess you are making statements about other professions, without having experience playing them.

name one channeled skill with the number of hits as rapid fire
the range/damage
and cool down

and can u dodge rapid fire in one dodge ?
like most channeled skills ‘_’ ???

to many hours

but I am a pvp / wvw person .

and pve is a waste of time .. gw2 does not even have smart mobs…
there is no counter attack when u stand behind them ?!?!
lol even tera has mobs with some counter attacks .

but really I just wish they would focus on pvp/wvw
it is a lame pve game and has a lot of pvp/wvw potential.
but they are to focused on PVE to ever break past there bad reputation on other mmo games for not improving !

life blast u can dodge

that one blast may still hit u in stealth but u cant keep casting them
u lose LOS

where rapid fire is one skill with multiple hits

so ya just wondering . will we ever see chntha ?

if so when ?

loading screens are not a problem.

gw2 is a good game and all but it is really time for games more along the lines of
black desert online

arche age was a let down the combat is clunky

if only u could sandwich GW2 Tera and arche age in to one game

keeping the focus on pvp /wvw

u would have a top seller

It’s not that much of a big problem to be honest. I just thought that the game could be better. But I can understand if modifying it would be difficult. It would probably take a relaunch for that to happen. But I can dream, can’t I?

hey I am dreaming to XD so don’t take it personal … it is just at this point it may be better if GW2went on to GW3
idk if a expansion can fix this .

yes it may give old players a lil more interest in the game. but that is not enough to generate sales at this point …

GW2 already has a really bad reputation for not improving on other mmo games
this game has gone to long with out major improvements. it would be a waist at this point sadly

loading screens are not a problem.

whats the point of wasting a utility slot for sick em
when u have a stealth tracking rapid fire

just get over ranger.

at the end of the day anet just threw in the towel

they had no other ideas to get ranger on par with the meta but crank up rapid fire

kind sad
but ranger is in the meta now

a cool mini will not keep most people interested in a game though.

yes it is a nice reward but a mini is a mini and that is no more than a skin that floats around your character XD

add new classes
new traits
new weapons

a solution to the blobs

and pay some attention to the strategy that goes in to castle siege.
i dont think siege disabler was the answer

i dont think etom ended up like anyone wanted.
they need to do something about the blobs

and pay some attention to the strategy that goes in to castle siege.
i dont think siege disabler was the answer

etom was to early for its time and because of it wvw is now lacking

if etom was not created servers would have balanced out
because people do not want to wait for queue time
and we would not have people talking about server merge

i think part of the problem is there is no noticable changes to GW2.

yes there is story up dates that come out …

but lets say u bought the game at launch and u took a break for over a year and came back … the olny noticable changes u would see is

1.a hand full of new traits
2.etom and dry top farm fest
3. some old pve maps that now look like they have been blown up
4.and a new set of armor/weapons u need to grind for

it would do the game good to see new classes and some advancements to wvw and pvp

some new dungeons

on a side note . i dont think etom ended up like anyone wanted.

i really need to find a new game.

i cant say i like the detection it is going anymore

no wonder anet is not worried about fixing up pvp and wvw …. every one is a achievement hunter :P

think i need to move on to a new game

just what is anets position on new classes ?

it would be really nice to see new classes .
or at least expand existing classes in to something more

ya wvw/pvp keeps me coming back to the game

they have a great combat system i just wish they would do more with the classes /add new classes

+1 lake was lame .
at least the runes are a jungle gym XD

can i get a server merge/swap with this change?

get it out of wvw

i wish they had custom castles …
people would be more willing to defend something they built !

new classes

expand wvw

expand pvp

ACD and E

PVP WVW

i am not much of a dungeon person or living story.
if i am killing a computer it is not for me

dungeons are fun on the first few runs and thats about it

the only thing that would get me back in to the pve world is if there was open world pvp/wvw.

i prefer the GW2 combat system compared to other games i just wish they would do more with the classes and add new classes

it feels like they are denying a good combat system of more advance pvp/wvw in favor of more pve content :S

Dragon Knight- The dragon knight offers a different style of play than the Warrior. They have lower defense values, but make up for this disability with high evasion
can take on groups of enemies to make fights easier on teammates
dragon knights wield spears with force, and cover themselves with dragon scales for defense.

Martial Artist /samurai/monk- Having both offensive skills and defensive skills , they can beat down their enemies with an onslaught of attacks. The more times they hit an enemy while under their Charge, the more attack speed and physical attack they gain.
focus on combo moves and breaking through enemies’ resistances.

warlock: uses swords to cast both light and dark magic,
large magic attacks with long cast times resulting in explosive effects

one can dream

the game will never do really well in china unless they have super cute pets and mounts lol

something like a yellow rat or a kitty hello?

one thing about new classes though

new classes = character expansion slots

but thats the thing it is not stable and idk if it ever will be. there will all ways be a meta

as long as each class has a specific role in the game they will have a use .

take ranger & mesmer GS for example they both compete for long range damage but have very different uses

and that’s not holding people back from using them

if a thief jumps u they have the upper hand . thats all they are good at

but ranger has rapid fire .
because it is a channeled skill .
all u need to do is let go of the keys and it will track a stealth target :S

thats a pretty bad thief.
but the stealth tracking rapid fire can feel like a bit much at times

add a rune/sigil bank so people can swap out runes and sigils.

we can finally swap out our traits .

but what good is swapping out your traits if u cant change runes and sigils on the fly

i wish they had a bank for runes and sigils.

wvw builds once u buy a expensive rune and put it on ascend armor u kinda get stuck with that rune and build
same goes for sigils and ascend weapons

it would be so nice if once u buy a rune u can swap them out when ever u want.

no more story plz lol . i am drowning in it

i wish they would focus on wvw pvp and classes

How can u drown in 30 min content every 1 month with 2-3 months break inbetween? There are only 2 possibilities. U either are completely new to the game and thus u didn’t discover anything, or u are a vet player who doesn’t care about story which makes it normal for u to drown in it….that doesn’t mean the content is “drownable in” tho.

The game is stale. ANet from my pov is moving at an incredibly slow passe. Understandable because they are a very small team from what i know. If they are not, it’s infuriating actually.

Anyway…all i know is apart from events which take like 30 min to do and this halloween event which is just a huge grindfest, i almost never play it anymore. Nothing to do…or if there is something to do it’s so grindy and repetitive i don’t consider it as something to do.

Other games came out and others are still to come. I gave up on GW2 living up to it’s potential. For me it’s clear that either anet or ncsoft don’t want it to evolve at the speed the community wants it and is expected of it to do. GW2 indeed changed into Gemshop Wars 2.

Honestly…considering how things have been so far, i am actually scared of how a proper expansion would look like for GW2. Think about it for a second.

pretty much what u said it is just so much of a dull grind fest i never do it .

they have a good combat system but they are not doing anything with it

the LLL’ LLL aaaaA@A GggG is real

no more story plz lol . i am drowning in it

i wish they would focus on wvw pvp and classes

+ 100 times

i am drowning in story here

nothing like getting killed by a flying unicorn with rainbows coming out its but :P

is it just me or do u ever feel like there is way to much story content.
i mean i am drowning in it.

really the only thing that keeps me coming back to the game is wvw and pvp.

but the rate they are growing is anemic compared to the amount story

more story is all i think we will see cheers ..more brainless computers to kill

and small updates to wvw and classes

Kusarigama ……. there is no mid ranged melee weapon ….

and polearms could have a similar purpose

wvw is kinda the end game .
u can go in at any lvl u want. i lvled 3 characters in wvw

but dont be surprised if u get killed wvw players are looking for a fight

crystal desert and the other areas that have not been released yet could be set up for open world pvp
there is a lot of listed places on the pve map that have not been used yet

gw2 has some cool pve maps shame u cant wage war on them
