I really like GW2’s combat, the only thing I would add would be an aggro meter so we could control the boss aggro with taunts. Other than that everything else is fine.

Look guys, it’s clear what SOR is doing. When they are matched together with SBI against a 3rd server, they can tag team. In return, when we are matched against SOR with a 3rd server (JQ or BG) we can return the favour and play kingmaker by focusing on disrupting SOR.

There’s nothing wrong with this, just watch a few seasons of Survivor to understand how politics works. But let’s not assume that everyone should play fair and hold others to our own ideals of honor.

Huh? I thought it was only countries with a sizeable Muslim population. This would be only Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore.

It’s Hari Raya Haji btw.

India
Pakistan
Bangladesh
UAE
Turkey
Afghan
Indo
Malaysia
Brunei
Singapore
Philipines
Myanmar
China(Xinjiang and certain other provinces)

Half of these countries are not Southeast Asia(SEA) . Please revise your wording accordingly next time. Also

Philipines
Myanmar

Can you confirm this? I dont think it is a holiday in predominantly catholic Pinoy or predominantly Buddhist Myanmar (where they are committing ethnic cleansing against the Rohingya Muslims).

Anyway I don’t mean to beat a dead horse but I do wish some forum posters be a bit more well informed next time.

The most deadly beast in Tyria the Drop Mesmer…more deadly than the Drop Bears of Oz.

No it’s not, stop trolling. Drop bears kill over 300 people annually, they are a bane to australias tourism industry and the majority of the deaths come from foreigners who don’t know there are just some parts in the bush where you just don’t go.

I once went camping in the bush, some kid asked me how to tell if there were drop bears. I told him to spit up in the tree and if there was one it would spit back at him.

I have never seen someone run so fast in my life.

Why to roll necro?

in Necromancer

Posted by: declan.3968

declan.3968

Power Necro is responsible for maintaining 25 stacks of vulnerability on the enemy while dealing reasonable DPS.

Condition Necro is as above, except replace vulnerability with Bleed and replace enemy with every enemy.

Necro is also capable of maintaining over 15 stacks of Might solo. This means that you aren’t as dependable on group comp to reach full potential.

The best part of Necro – Death Shroud , a big OHKITTEN button that absorbs damage and allows you to gap close or run away.

What EXISTING weapon would you like on Necro?

in Necromancer

Posted by: declan.3968

declan.3968

Sword design – High damage and a gap closer
Skill 1 chain
Deathly Gaze – .5s – Deal damage and steal life if hp over 50%
Deathly Chill – .5s – Deal damage and apply 1s Chill
Deathly Swarm – 1s – Deal damage to target and all surrounding foes.

Skill 2 – Necrotic Traversal – 8s – Teleport to target foe. Creates a Poison cloud at target location for 3s.

Skill 3 – Spinal Shivers – 15s – 3s Block. Interrupt the next attack and apply Torment on interrupt.

Torch design: Burns and removes conditions.
Skill 4 – Coldfire Night – 20s – Apply Burning, Chilled and Blind to yourself and target foe.
Skill 5 – Plague Touch – 25s – Transfer up to 3 conditions from yourself to a foe.

Master Trait – Ring of Fire – Torch skills now affect up to 5 foes around you.

I run 30/25/0/0/15 for one good reason: the traits lend itself to

a) Power Necro
b) Condition Necro
c) Well WvW Necro

Obviously if you use the Necro since beta you would have accrued 3 sets of armor, Zerk Rabid and Soldier, and thus have a variety of options to play with.

9/27 - JQ / FA / SoS

in Match-ups

Posted by: declan.3968

declan.3968

There are 10 possible matchups (listed below for simplicity) with ~60 (poor math being used here) different color combinations possible.

1. 123/456 * balanced matchup

3rd server gets favourable matchup
2. 124/356
3.125/346
4.126/345

2nd server gets favourable matchup
5.134/256
6.135/246
7.136/245

1st server gets favourable matchup
8.234/156
9.235/146
10.236/145

So ideally 1 match out of 2-4, 5-7 and 8-10 gets removed, that way players won’t complain why 1 server gets to fight 2xT2 more than twice.

Some ANET interfered with our GvG

Posted by: declan.3968

declan.3968

Perfect example: GunZ
That game, developed by a small korean developer, was meant to played in a certain way, but due to a bug/glitch, people played it completely different. in the end, the developer embraced this new playstyle and promised never to fix it and make it part of the game, which resulted in the game to be really successful. THAT is how you run a game.

If you really mean this, then let us play the way we want to play

Perfect Perfect Example: Guild Wars 1

Guild Wars 1 : Prophecies was structured in a way whereby you started in a beautiful zone called the Pre-Searing, it was sort of an extended tutorial zone. After you chose to advance the storyline, the world changed for the worse.

Many players chose to create a character and remain in the Pre-Searing mode, eventually attaining level 20 in that tutorial zone. ANet rewarded those players by adding a title and then later on making it easier to hit the level cap.

Most of the guys who made that decision are no longer with the company.

Method to decide the Leagues

Posted by: declan.3968

declan.3968

If you are saying you don’t ever even want the chance to try and show your skill against a higher ranked server, then I don’t know what to say.

And what do you think we have been doing for the past few weeks? SOS has been matched up against every server in the top 2 tiers, and have proven time and time again that skill is not important when there is 3x as many players on the opposite side.

It is insulting that a Developer would insinuate such nonsense. I can’t imagine someone would want to play an sPVP match where they are the only person on their side against a full team.

My guild has maxed out on Merits and we are stumped on how to spend it.

It would be rather nice if we could spend a number of Merits to change the commander icon to our Guild Emblem instead of the blue dorito. Even if it cost 250 Merits it would be fine, just give us a reason to spend it on something significant rather than a Heroes Banner that everyone has.

You start outside the temple, run inside, go to each platform and finally enter a side chamber to fight the prince. There’s no way you get to fight the Priestess Lyssa.

As an HoD perspective i’d just like to fight the servers who claim to have the best roamers/small mans. Idc about rank/ppt/etc. just bring some individual skill and we can duke it out.

That would be Ehmry Bay , in every matchup thread they have they will forum-warrior about how great their roaming is and thrash bigger servers about their open field tactics.

If there was more than 1 guild doing it at the same time, then 1 guild member needs to stay behind until the event ends, then claim credit for your guild. By doing so, you can get multiple guilds to share a Rush.
