@OP:

Are you serious? Spirit rangers are one of the OP specs right now (every class has one)

Please tell me what Elementalist spec is OP right now.

And mesmers plz

Cuz some classes have crazy mobility for orb running whereas others don’t (ie. imbalanced).

Rank tokens and tourney tokens give different items. Check the wiki for an incomplete list of stuff you can make.

Play whatever you want… mesmer is not overpowered at all, I’d argue it’s underpowered in this current meta.

Hotjoin just join winning team, force auto balance, volunteer and afk to get the free win.

Pugging team queue and stuff like this happens…

You could always try and form a premade for team queue and just farm your title that way…

But yeah i agree with you on your rant, sometimes I wonder if people think ‘rotating’ means turning their character with their keyboard because it certainly seems like it…

PvE wars 2

Matchmaking itself isn’t really “broken” it’s just that the population is so terribly low that it just doesn’t work. The system was probably designed with an intended group of players much larger than the current PvP population.

I’m upset because we can’t pvp as a black quaggan.

More than that. I have 9800 points in dailies and monthlies and I’ve missed a few here and there. New player will be over 10000 behind if u incl. living story.

I got 22 level 80s.

I have Genius, Hunter, Legionnaire and Paragon. 110/150 for my illusionist at the moment but I think I’ll stop after that, PvP really burns me out especially solo queue.

Sorry to see you go, it was always great fun to see you trolling people with decap eng hahaha.

But yes your experience mirrors mines. Every day I will without fail see low ranked players on my team that are so terrible with such subpar builds you have to wonder if they even know how to PvP.

Nabbo.2845:

The population is super low, which is probably why this happens

pop is low, but why this should happen? these ppl queued, even after putting first couple of players on each side, it was obvious that one side was skewed. why now correct at third, fourth, fifth player. this is completely blue sided queue.

i dont see any explanation to this but flawed mm sys. i would very much appreciate red comment here.

This is team queue not solo queue.

Paffus Piffus.9430:

I think they are fine, could be a LOT worse

Like the PvP solo queue 5 wins daily.

Yeah I see this every day doing solo q for my daily AP.

Basically depending on the luck of the day I’ll usually get one of the following (either my team, or theirs, or both):

- Single digit ranked players
- Signet of resolve guardians that melt in 2 seconds
- 3 signet zerker bearbow rangers
- 5 signet rifle warriors
- People that zerg like hotjoin

For example yesterday I had a r7 ranger in 4 of my games which was just a joke. Any team that got him instantly got a loss and I got him twice >.>. I mean, sure that’s a 50% win/loss rate right there but that’s like 4 unfun games right there.

And then there’s the queue times…

The only thing I like about PvP is the fact I can run builds/gear/stats without investing 100s of Gold into leveling and gearing out characters.

In WvW you have to get ascended and food and oil and all that other stuff just to be on somewhat equal footing with the roamers.

Rickster.8752:

4, No level grind – lower barrier to entry should keep the game alive

I was going to use my mesmer in PvP and test out the new signet heal but I needed to waste 25 skill points just for it. That is not ‘no level grind’ anymore.

All the ‘pro’ teams on NA just pug stomp and avoid each other in queue.

You can always buy bags like I have

Lukin.4061:

Don’t add it only to soloQ – teamQ people will feel left out again, just look at all the topics asking devs to add skyham to teamq. All the maps should be transferred to teamq, skyhammer, capricon, spirit watch, all the good stuff. Actually these maps are so flawless they should remove all the other ones…

This.

Team queue should just be Skyhammer, RoTC and Spirit Watch.

Well of course he’s never lost to an engy, he never plays pvp duh.

Writetyper.1985:

Hopefully fixing the rank points/rank point title discrepancy because I really want marauder and don’t want to work for it :<

Hope they fix this. I’m r50 without Ransacker title cuz I don’t do hotjoin lol.

It’s posts like these that remind me PvP in GW2 is dead.

I feel your pain…

When will they fix it? It’s ANet, probably 2020 if they’re still around.

This map just needs to be removed from tourney. IT is unbearable to play and terribly designed.

I just want to afk when I get skyham.

Win or lose it feels stupid and pointless.

I respawned under the map today in SH. Luckily my team had already lost by that point or I would’ve felt bad about it.

You’re misunderstanding. What i said is if it is 5v4, I don’t want to be the person being forced to spectate while it’s a 4v4 and end up losing because my team is bad.

Daroon.1736:

There is no reason for this to ever happen. Matches should always have equal numbers of players at all times. If someone leaves red team for example, a member from blue team should instantly be placed back into spectate mode, and queued to rejoin. When another player joins red, the blue team member is placed back into the game and numbers are balanced again. With respect to rewards, if the blue team member does not get back into the game because no one joins red, they receive the same rewards at the end of the match as the rest of the blue team.

Why can’t Anet make this happen?

Why would I want this to happen?

It already sucks that in solo q a lot of my wins/losses depend on how many low rank or people with bad builds are on my/the other team.

If I got redirected to spectator while my team of 4 zerker 3 signet rangers got to play and lost it for me I would probably just uninstall this instantly.

Extra chest (2 rares) is once per day per account.

Big chest WAS unlimited per day (5 karka shells + stuff). This chest only once per day per account now.

@Astralporing/Saturn yeah it got stealth nerfed

The big chest is now only lootable once per account per day not onece per character per day.

Intended or #stealthnerf?

No skyham is already a reward in itself.

Dishonorable takes a while to kick in, it sucks but it is what it is.

I think it’s 3 games of afk/leaving and then they get it.

They changed it so now you get kicked out of LA … sucks when I have a few alts parked there lol

yes rubble only.

There are 31 in the rubbles, 1 is a bonus.

Got like 2 stacks of boosters and 2 stacks of tourney win chests, never really opened them because they dropped nothin useful for me and the salvage kits cost glory which was better spent elsewhere.

Hopefully there’s more clear indication what’s going to happen to the chests.

1. Caed
2. Guardians
3. Caed
4. Warriors
5. Necros
6. Engineers

But yeah seriously, player matters more than class. I’d rather have a super pro ele than a bad warrior…

I’ve still been doing the dailies for PvP. I think I missed 2 out of the 50+ since they introduce the 8 wins… I literally rage quit those days due to 4v5s and bad games.

Still, this isn’t sustainable for me and my other friends who are all 18k AP+. Many times we discuss about quitting and it’ll probably happen eventually.

Infinite Banner Tonic is a workaround for this in PvE/WvW.

If you are in WvW you can double click a siege ram in your inventory and then store it back in by pressing ‘2’ to fix.

More large scaled fights.
Larger play area
More chokes and places where tactics matter
No skyhammer in WvW

Deli.1302:

In low tiers, EB is the only map that has action.

^^^^^^^^ this.

We’re challenging Maguuma for the ‘we dont play for ppt’ title

The daily PvP is a massive grind for AP hunters (2-6 hours PER DAY)… but they aren’t going to do anything about it since it clearly brought in more players to farm AP for their daily which kinda pads their numbers for tPvP showing increased participation.

The thing is though, lots of people are burning out from grinding the AP and many are just thinking of quitting the game. Sure, short term you might gain some PvPers but long term the most hardcore and dedicated players (usually AP grinders) will leave the game over this.

Prower

I share pretty much the same feelings as you do haha. The only reason I really play now is because of my guild/friends.

Speaking of grinds you should check out the new PvP dailies. Such grind, much effort.

Anyway hope you come back eventually, LA trolling just isn’t the same without you xoxo.

Happy new year all

UltraHiDef.4809:

Good fights, TC and SoS. Meow have enjoyed BEAR’s, CnB’s, and Awe’s bags, they’ll be put to good use.

Meow so gud they got wiped at our garri and wiped at hills then logged off.

If you truly wanted good fights you wouldn’t bring an FA mega blob with DPS and other guilds to fight us.

Also having somebody spy for you guys on our teamspeak? What a joke.

I was leading from 8pm Oceanic all the way to 2am Oceanic just now with my guild group + SoS militia.

Trust me when I say we aren’t hitting any side over the other. We fought on FA BL against Meow and other decent FA guilds and we also fought Awe/INVC on TC BL near their garri. In fact, everything except TC Garri and one tower is paper because of us

Of course, I don’t speak for everybody on the server but myself and my guild don’t care who wins or places second. We just do whatever the hell we want

EBG is … EBG. It’s always been a bit random there.
