Guild Wars 2

simple reason.. pathing issues of npcs getting back to where they were.. leading to more bugged npc’s.. also would cause problems finding moved npcs

I’ve had to contest infractions in the past and made a support account to do those..

recently I topped up my account with the max amount of gems a few times..

now when I go to top up i get an error on finalizing and asks me to contact support..

problem is.. i try to log in with my details and it says not valid or deactivated.. i try to make an account.. it says this email is already in use.. please use link to send password rest.. I click to request password reset.. no email.. i click to remind user name.. no email..

so I im now stuck not being able to buy gems..

p.s. so i ewnt online to buy a gem card.. did that now im going through walls of verify’s with them.. and im at a friends for a few days.. so dont have docs on me to hand..

any help much appreciated

wait… your class has the most traits to remove conditions doesn’t it?

Cleansing Conflagration
Cleansing Inscriptions
Mender’s Purity
Shattered Conditions

For answering your question, no it doesn’t.
Now firebreathz.7692 Are you stupid? I’m honestly asking.
Is your post a sick joke?

Now I will explain you why I’m saying you are not that smart if you think what you sad.
*Cleansing Conflagration
Trait line Domination Tier Master Type Major
Torch skills remove conditions. Reduces cooldowns of torch skills by 20%.
Nobody uses torch, no reason to use a torch budy…

*Cleansing Inscriptions
Trait line Chaos Tier Master Type Major
Activating a signet removes a condition.
Why on earth would I use signets? :0

*Mender’s Purity
Trait line Inspiration Tier Adept Type Major
Remove a condition when you heal.
Unless you are a bunker I see no reason to put traits into Inspiration.

*Shattered Conditions
Trait line Inspiration Tier Grandmaster Type Major
Using a shatter skill removes a condition.
Wasting 10 or 20 points for getting this is terrible waste. No reason for do that.
Even if you have 30 in domination, you have to chose other traits because would be a waste take this compared to other choises.

So budy, I hope this anwser your question.

I dont play a mesmer so I have very little knowledge of them..

but from what I can see you complained about conditions..

so I mentioned your class has the most removal..

that was all..

if you choose not to take condition removal traits please refrain from whining about them being out of hand.. as you are choosing to let them keep ticking on you…

I got your point with your first post. And I told you that you are wrong.
“if you choose not to take condition removal traits please refrain from whining about them being out of hand..”

Do you get my point?
If you use the traits or anything that you mentioned in your post, you die even faster and against even more enemies

ok I can see your point..

But “conditions are way out of hand”

my point was it’s not the conditions thats at fault here.. it’s the lack of having your cake and eating it..

if you want all those utilities to help your group fine.. have them provide you with condition removal in return..

or shake up your build.. dare to try something not “meta”

my point is you have the option.. and you have chosen with your reasons..

p.s. I know nothing of the mesmer traits.. I only stated you had access to the most condition removal traits.. I didnt mention/or do I know how effective they are, compared to other skills..

wait… your class has the most traits to remove conditions doesn’t it?

Cleansing Conflagration
Cleansing Inscriptions
Mender’s Purity
Shattered Conditions

Nothing beats this…

I have been using GS/LB in Tpvp and it’s very viable..

I use to debunk then bunker the node myself.. (trap builds dont bunker so well)

here are my usual debunking methods

near edge of node GS #4 Counterattack
close to enemy near edge of node LB #4 Point Blank Shot + entangling roots
wolf fear

with those 3 ways of decapping it’s not long before that node is mine 1v1

the build I use helps me stay alive for a very long time.. but my damage is lame.. but im not there to do damage.. im there to control that node..

here’s my build..

http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-Fg-o;1wEFy-r2kDF-0;9F-E;3T9T;427B2;015BZ;01;2nBnBnBnB9kb

it’s not perfect and it’s all personal choice that works well for me

p.s. copy paste if it says bad link…

it’s a trait for traps in wilderness survival i think.. and it sounds like you have fast ground targeting on.. so either keep it and point the mouse where you want to cast then press the hotkey for barrage #5… or go in options turn off fast ground targeting.. then just click barrage then place and click again..

hope this helps

working as intended. direct counterplay to pesky bunkers in the current meta. insta-neut enemy capped point with orb

sadly everyone is playing bunker ftw in that map. anet’s plan failed

Thieves become quite useless. Also there is no teamfight, so mesmers start to play with moa morph.

Thiefs are still good for taking down runners fast..

why do you do into the heart of the mists and test it out?

guess the score of this close game..

the over lapping win pop up stops us from seeing the score properly

Noooo, evading channels is to hard (almost impossible to dodge/evade), it should be easy as the avoidance of something you do not see and do not know when it will come (Thief attack from stealth).

What wrong in giving another option to avoid those channeling skills? Rapid Fire is a 5s channel with 10s cooldown skill. It cannot be correctly dodged and it still gives away your position even if you do. What if the thief burned a smoke bomb utility to prevent damage? It’d be a skill reaction counter and would be a good start to make Stealth more useful outside of unlocking powerful attacks or plain staying invisible most of the time.

“Noooo, evading channels is to hard (almost impossible to dodge/evade), it should be easy as the avoidance of something you do not see and do not know when it will come (Thief attack from stealth, out of nowhere).”

“Yes. Lets vote for perma stealth/invulnerability.”

landing a channeling skill on a about to stealth thief is harder to do than alot of you think..

love to see some female dominatrix rangers running around XD

when I first signed up I tried to use my regular pass.. and it was flagged saying please choose another

this was because in the past on other mmo’s i had sign up to forums, and also brought gold on wow years ago..

so my guess is that somewhere down the line you credentials were saved and when this game came out.. the gold sellers cracked out there old list of user names/passwords to try make a quick buck..

p.s. ty anet for adding the extra security by making me choose another pass from the start…

just did a little bit of digging and it seems i was defending something that i took at face value

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Long_Range_Shot 1.25 cast time
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Bleeding_Shot .75 cast time

altho ingame both skills state .75 cast time…

so my guess is that it’s a tool tip error

Zane.8471:

nearly all skills have cast-times and cooldowns, i dont see why this shouldnt be intended.

because he is saying that the cast time is slightly longer than intended due to animations.. thus lowering overall dps..

Its not just animations its cast-time and why the hell wouldnt it be intended?

well from what the op was saying..

Long Range Shot has an activation speed of .75 seconds but an actual fire rate of about 1 shot/ 1.25 seconds.

so the cast time is .75 secs

but the fire rate is 1.25 secs

thats a whole .5secs longer per shot..

can you see how that might add up?

what you probably need to do to fix this is update your graphics card drivers..

i’ve had several graphics issues that were fixed by doing this

what ever the orange spot is.. it was behind the camera view in your screen shot…

then it’s could be that the mob prefers lower armor and/or lower base hp..

as your using bear… thats one tough sob so i can see why the mob would run for you.. but i also see that it will be frustrating..

it also could and probably only last a few lvls as it has to do with scaling of pet to you.. every lvl this will change..

hope you find a fix

here is a rough mock up of main bm build traits

http://intothemists.com/calc/?build=-F;9;9;9;2T9T;57B2;2Bt

the last trait in wilderness survival is usually swapped out for empathetic bond tho..

can you take a screen shot?

if your unsure how just press print screen on your keyboard while ingame

and the screen shot will be in the folder documents/guildwars2/screens

and to upload just click more posting options

Manekk.6981:

I feel it’s unfair for pets to show up in your combat log when it doesn’t show up in mine >.<

yeah rangers have no idea what pets are doing combat wise..

and if anything we need to know that more than other classes

Qid.1937:

It’s come to my attention when I finished my sunrise this week that the sunrise “in” my.. sunrise.. is in the west. Since the dawn(pun) of time, the sun has risen in the east.

So I assume this is an unintended bug which I would love to see rectified.

Thanks

(Yes, I do understand that earth “didn’t” exist at the dawn of time)

The problem is.. this game is not even set on earth..

heavy golem dead in 2.7 secs

The infraction system can be alittle harsh for some of the lighter reasons for giving..

could we have a lesser penalty for these cases?

what are your thoughts on having another way to politely inform to forum posters without giving out infrations?

oh and please dont infract me for this post as im not challenging anything..

i’m only discussing where there should be a infractionless penalty..

every time the ranger test dummy downs and stomps a player he bugs out like soo bad..

he just runs back and forth… wont attack… until killed and reset…

I’m guessing this hasn’t really been noticed or brought up because it’s very rare that he can get a stomp off due to the fact the dummies are weak..

that and go back to the chantry of secrets to re get poi

also do your story line to lvl 72 i think

no you ignore pets… by the time u do any damage they swap them out.. and the healing on bm pets is good enough for you to not bother with it as u probs wont kill it before your dead anyways..

the best way to beat a bm ranger is to interrupt heals and try to strip some boons.. mainly regen..

the probs your having are not because of the pet…

it’s because of the healing..

I dont think this problem is exclusive to mesmers…

I think it has to do with pet/minion/clone crit damage

pre patch my eagle was critting a heavy golem for 2k
post patch my eagle cant get above 1.7k

you dont even need to switch right before.. if you let the f2 go on cooldown, swap pets and again it will look like the skill on cooldown but is still usable…

wait I fail to see a bug here… please try not to clog up the bug section..

my guess is it’s to stop teleporting hackers from mining all day to sell on the TP

Oglaf.1074:

It is also why all the Norn’s “Become the…” Elites are worthless.

at least thats just one elite.. and not one of the main sources of damage you have…

ideally you want this fixed but have you tried changing the size of the interface in the options see if that helps in the mean time?

here is an update on my charr ranger with his epic new wep…

Terkov.4138:

So, the only “right” legendary is black, burning <weapon type> of doooooom, that shoots acid and has fangs, thorns etc?
I’m male (and rather “manly” one in matters of look). I have Kudzu and I think it’s beautiful. Exactly this word. When you have it in hands, there are little orbs (or leaves? Not sure) flying from it, like with the wind. It’s just pretty. Not crappy, plastic, gigantic weapon that looks like toy.
About projectiles: they are gold and have unique sound. After shoot, there is something, like petals, falling from the way where arrow flied.
Btw. what’s wrong with flowers? Plant is plant. I don’t see ppl hating on sylvari…
Sometimes I wonder, why don’t ppl eat hamsters alive and kill kittens, just becausethey are too “cute and girly” for them.

On the other hand I have to agree on The Dreamer – as much as I like skin, I couldn’t stand shooting unicorns.

“So, the only “right” legendary is black, burning <weapon type> of doooooom, that shoots acid and has fangs, thorns etc?"

try reversing what you said and thats what we have now…

So, the only “right” legendary is flowery, girly weapon type that shoots unicorns ect..

im fine with the look of the bows
im fine with the bows
they are there to accommodate for the feminine/peaceful look that people like

we just ask for the same option for the masculine doom weapon types we like..

instead of one or the other.. why not both..

found the problem.. it’s the trait absolute resolution thats causing the tool tip error..

Notes
Increases passive regeneration effect by 25%.

when i tested i had 141 with no trait… 300 with trait… and only a 176 heal so the tool tip is well off…

ahh I see what you mean now..

Im still not seeing the same results tho

it’s scaling correctly in the heart of the mists anyways from my lil tests.. see pics

I think i read if you discovered the chantry of secrets while doing your personal story line then it shows as completed but wont count for world completion.. try revisit the chantry without being in a story line and this might work…

I was bored so I took a lil look to see if I could see the same…

I got different results to say the least..

I dont play a guardian so I dont know if this is normal or not..

the skill healing with no traits is 123 for me..

when first activated it heals for the 123 but then just after there is a massive 2108 heal.. see pics..

so I dont think this is an issue as there is a huge heal after… that is not mentioned anywhere in the description…

Walabone.6713:

I posted in the Necro forums about this a while back. It seems some other people have had the same problems.

Essentially I instantly get killed when put into the downed state. In theory I should have a solid 5-6 seconds while suffering auto attacks before I am finished off. Instead, 1 person can kill me with autos before my #3’s CD is up. 2 people can kill me before I can even get off a #2 fear.

I made a short video of this behavior: http://youtu.be/o9uPxSSRCgU

I have no idea what may be causing this. I believe my Necro dies correctly in PvP, though I’m not sure about PvE.

your video is pointless for proof of this.. i had a careful look and i can see there are about 6 different npc’s attacking you.. of course your gonna die fast…

Softspoken.2410:

It seems like the sort of skill you could add a targeting reticule to. It would slow down the skill, (Press button, select area, click as compared to press button) but it would let you select who exactly you want to have revived. (Unless multiple people die close to one another.)

Good / bad idea?

only down side is it’s an extra click when you have very little time spare..

I had just got a greatsaw for my ranger right before I heard about the buff.. was over the moon XD

by any chance was the npc more in your center of view when you used the skill?

the camera focus can cause targeting problems sometimes

remember just because you have lost x amount to the forge so far.. it does Not increase your chances..

as in head always showing and saying tails is sure to come up next it’s been head th last 30 times It must hit it this time..

(I learnt this the hard way from using martingale betting systems on roulette)

a small passive rank point tick while standing on a node.. balanced so you don’t gain too much.. is my choice to fix this..

This is an old bug that they were working on a fix for.. I thought it was fixed as I only had it once ages ago.. heres the link to the topic

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/bugs/Annoying-Sound-Bug/first

as shown in the Op’s screen shot that so well illustrates this, is that lower ranks are being punished for having a more experienced player on their team..

I have seen quite a few times now where one r40+ on one team vs all r40+ish on the other

so im wondering this: we’ll use the op’s screen shot as an example..

if the red team did not have the r41 on their team would they of been matched to the all 40+ team..

so is it taking the max for one as the max for all as in does it work on a mean average or just highest value

(I know that mmr is not based on rank as such but it’s a good indicator atm)

the new join solo button gave the many that lurked in hotjoin because of not wanting to have to form long term teams (even 3-4 games) an easy way to access tourney’s for the first time, that coupled with shorter q’s because of 1 round there has been the mass exodus to tourneys

so that has diluted the play styles for now.. shouldn’t take too long for them to adapt to the tpvp play style

Im also willing to bet if you stack mf too high it will work against you.. as your rolling on rarer loot more/too often.. so loot over all goes down with a marginal gain of maybe one more green but 4 less blues per run for example..
