Guild Wars 2

Verificus.4320:

Maybe on water 4 chill skill add a: pull foes in a 360 radius towards you. 600 or 900 range max 3 targets. Theyd be gap closed and chilled.

Yeah I think having the focus, keep people near you is better than giving a skill to make you approach the enemy, I think a completely different playstyle is good to differentiate dagger and focus.

About only 1 movement ability, offhand dagger only has Ride the Lightning and (sort of) Updraft for mobility so adding 1 to focus would make the 2 offhands very similar.

I’d add possibly air 5 pull and knockdown (like a reverse launch – great for ruining the day of anyone on a wall in wvw) if water 4 was an aoe pull+chill it would likely get quite a long cast. Though if it had damage/cast similar to churning earth, I would be 100% ok with that… The ice troll mobs in frostgorge sound have an ability like that.

Doesn’t switching kits break the stomp channel?

Gadgets seem like they could get a passive buff, but I’m fine with them the way they are.

Having 2 actives instead of an active and a passive that preclude eachother is a good thing imo.

I don’t think focus is meant to be for roaming.

Mbelch.9028:

I love the focus, but I still say it needs a bit of work. It needs just a little extra mobility. One skill.

tbh I don’t mind the lack of mobility, since the objectives aren’t moving anywhere. I love how dagger and focus have such different playstyles.

That said, which skill would you change to a mobility skill? Any idea what it would be like? A long range pull to oppose the dash of RtL maybe?

After watching ready up and seeing the engineer flamethrower fire wall change, is anyone else looking forward to that change being reflected in ours?

I think hitting for power and condition simultaneously will help a lot, though I am a biased focus addict…

Apologies if there already a thread on this, I didn’t see anything in the balance thread

I use altruism for the might+fury :P Where water gives the aoe heal on your heal, altruism gives the fire traited blasted fire field (kinda)

Though my build is weird so whatevs

tbh I think the only reason I was thinking it reflected the whole area was that I play asura so I’m a bunch smaller than the actual hitbox

Yeah I think I just have to test this, was just hoping someone else had already tried it to save me the time :p

Just a question, does anyone know if magnetic aura increases the size of your hitbox? to reflect things in a wider path than your body?

Remember that you can change your spec freely, if you current spec doesn’t work for a fight, change it up.

Also don’t walk into the acid circles, there’s no excuse to get hit by them.

we don’t even know if elder dragons can completely die.

You need to plan out your route before you take it.

Mesmer portals still require someone to do the puzzle, and interacting with a player, both good things. Giving the ability to skip pretty much all jps and break out of most of the maps is not a good idea :p

I’d like that elite guardians get that reset all their virtues, but for our attunements, gives quickness instead of invulnerability \o/

Blix.8021:

The safest is having a thief spam blind on the npc

This doesn’t work anymore, or so I’ve heard from reports.

I’ve had no issue spamming blind on my ele, but she does attack faster than most blind pulses, unless you’re really precise, best to not rely on just one defense.

Ceridwen.6703:

You might want to take a look at the T3 asuran cultural weapons ~~

Looks really nice

Quells.2498:

I was specific and even more so on why it doesn’t make sense to list certain events. I’m not sure what you’re misunderstanding but this isn’t making much progress anyways. The most basic I can make my statement is to say that giving players abilities and then not allowing them to use those abilities is bad design. It is not reliant on any one mechanic or event but rather the lack of holistic mechanics that always work the way the player expects.

This needs an example, vast majority of enemies aren’t immune to your abilities. The dredge blind immune , ember burning immune, earth elementals permanent stability etc.. makes sense.

What are you referring to because we’re not experiencing your issue.

You have to be grouped with the people you’re supporting, then your mob tags will take into account the damage they have done too.

Also @Omar, not everyone plays purely to min-max loot, some people actually enjoy helping others, shocking I know.

wtb dyeable weapon blades \o/ Skies of Arcadia please…

@Kadj it’s already in game, just needs to be replicated from its current place over to the party ui.

I have a feeling your computer might be dying, that much crashing is abnormal – GW2 isn’t perfectly coded but that’s not their end.

That said, wow never heard of this 3 day ban, that does seem crazy.

Glad you’re having fun

tbh with a new profession, it’d have to have heavy armour and medium health to fill the last class gap, stylistically though.. who knows, a great deal of playstyles are already covered by the existing classes.

Anet already said that existing weapons will be added to classes that don’t have use of them yet, which will add a bunch of skills, without having to make a whole new class of weapon

Probably should have at least tried to fuse them one time during collection?

That’s a tad dated and I’m not entirely certain they sourced accurately; but adding that to the mix.

EDIT: and their grammar is horrid.

Quoted because nobody seemed to notice it

Also Drok, mmos don’t need a sub to run, the ones that have a sub are likely scamming you.

The downed skills are balanced around the class, they’re fine.

It says unique on the ring.

The only thing that needs improving is mob AI, pvp is awesome and the pve mobs should lose defiance and gain a brain. Problem solved \o/

They’re probably working on it.

The price of everything would skyrocket, you’d need to sub to farm enough to afford anything. This is such a terrible suggestion :p

Either way if you want gold and items, you can put your $15 into the gem store and get it already.

You’re supposed to do different dungeons and different bosses, not the same one repeatedly.

I suggest browsing the ele forum for some tips. Welcome back, just in time for season 2 of LS

Engineer I think

There’s a language filter? Wha?

I don’t think anet ever claimed this game was hardcore. tl;dr you’re in the wrong game if you want that.

Most of us players are happy with the fun gameplay and content.

The dynamic events aren’t all random, some can be triggered and some are chains, it’s not as dynamic as it could be but it’s a huge step in the right direction compared to traditional questing.

I think the main point is: when you log in the state of the zone isn’t always exactly the same.

This just proves we need more skimpy leather armour for males. I can get behind that <3

And i’d love nothing more than being able to mix and match clothes from both available genders, would at least increase the choice my asura and charr get, which is pretty annoyingly low.

I dislike hearts and avoid them, but on the topic of events, many of them are interesting, you don’t have the competing over mobs like in other mmos that makes me so mad either.

I just like the idea that seeing another player on your faction should never be a negative.

That’s a shame

I like the idea that fighting on an empty stomach isn’t as effective.

When I played Age of Conan it was awesome, you were totally useless without a hearty meal :p

In gw2 the different food types add a lot of fun for me, sort of like an extra sigil slot would.

side mouse button works really well for me when dodging ^^ makes jumpdodges easier too.

Aspect arena is one of the most fun pvp experiences in gw2 precisely because it’s so consistent

There are some incredibly cheap runes/gems/crests around on the trading post (cheap because they aren’t great) but can be fun to use while levelling, and they’re going to better than nothing.

I tend to just keep upgrades from salvaging greens/rares..

I have a feeling liadri won’t return, I’m betting on a whole new set of bosses. But that’s just me, I like the temp stuff :p

I wonder what will be different this time around

We have loads of swiftness without using the weapon skills at all.

The strengths and weaknesses are more build related than class related..

What are the chances of everyone in your physical area playing this game though, also doing a dodge roll while wearing google glass will likely destroy it :p

On AG we have a server TS and it makes the guild runs really nicely organised, had lots of fun finally being able to beat this boss

People are learning and bringing consumables, it’s pretty awesome. I’m hoping all the dragons are remade this way

The gold sellers use hacked accounts and stolen credit cards, it’s not costing them anything

Seen a couple spams but not that many, I’m sure the banhammer is swinging at anet…

180 is 10 more than melee, so yeah pretty much right on top of.

Diminishing returns sounds good. But that con is likely a big one, would likely require making bosses cast a lot more often.
