Druid dps rotation in high fractal?

in Ranger

Posted by: gin.7158

gin.7158

I wanna learn druid so excuse me for having a lot of question about pve druid. “Bear” with me, ok

So I know druid in raid needs to go to avatar form whenever they can, right? Is the reason to heal or maximizing gotl uptime for dps?

Even in high level fractal, sometimes heal is not needed. So Is it worth to go to avatar form for gotl or just do the dps rotation with weapons?

“I basically have the same, unbalanced match every night, facing the same few top players stacked in the opposing team while getting a random team (with recurring names) that isn’t even half as good, resulting in a guaranteed loss and a lack of motivation for me to even try hard, since it does not make any difference in the outcome if I win my fights.

This is so true and sad situation.

Why do you make it such a big deal? It’s just a game. just move on. I mean it doesn’t cost you anything. It’s not a competitive game that will give you money, It’s just a “casual” game.

Although I personally like this kind of thread bcoz it gives me something to read during pvp queue. PvP drama is sometimes so funny and entertaining.

Couple of Tempest PvP questions

in Elementalist

Posted by: gin.7158

gin.7158

I play staff ele. So far at Legendary prestige 2, soon reach prestige 3 if I can get games hahaha. I’m not competitive player so keep that in mind. It’s fine for casual games. Use water 131, coz aquamancer training with cleansing water makes water 5 so awesome.

Your job is basically to make your teammates stay alive. A good Ele rotates well. Several rules that I have for rotation : Always go to teamfight, Never do +1 coz your damage sucks and you need to be at teamfight instead of 1v1. If your teammate +1 you, and you see there is a teamfight somewhere else and you think your teammate can 1v1 your current enemy, leave the point and go to the teamfight instead. You have to count your enemies as well, make sure they won’t sneak behind and steal your point easily. If the teamfight happens at enemies’ point, It means your teammates are dumb and they deserve to die bcoz it makes your points vulnerable and if they die at that fight, your enemies will snowball really hard to your points so just try to keep your distance(if you use staff , stay between the teamfight and your closest point so you can help your teammates from good distance to your points). Another case, you fight neutral point at mid and you see someone is going to steal your home . Don’t leave the fight bcoz they will die without you. Rotation takes some time to learn but very important as ele.

TL:DR for rotation: Always go to teamfight while paying attention to your points. Don’t fight at enemies point as stated before, fight at your points or neutral points.

Don’t spam auras. Use it for healing and condi cleanse. Pay attention to your teammates’ health bar at the top left.

Staff is cheese mode bcoz you can range so you don’t have to be good at dodging key attacks. You don’t have obsidian flesh though so you can’t safe-rez or safe-stomp really well. If you are focused, use lightning flash to higher ground and damage/support from range. Stack swiftness at the start of the game. Overload fire along the way to give mights to your teammates and swap to earth after that. You need to be at earth coz you may be focused. The stability and prot and earth defense trait will help you through that.

It’s a common knowledge that necro can be focused easily especially at early game coz they have low life force. Focus necro instead of Ele, unless you guys have MLG strategy like attacking from stealth. If you have necro on your teammate, pay attention to that necro. People usually jump to necro so it works both ways.

Just my 2 cents, I write arbitrarily here. I think I need it because of my frustration over pvp.

15 pip range is not a myth. Idk how it works but there must be some contribution to mm. As fishball says at t3 legend you can notice it’s so hard to get a match. At t1 you can still get some matches with diamonds. At t4 or even t5, RIP. Now I wonder if you reach prestige 2, your pip will reset right? so you will get a match with diamonds again? That’s a little bit weird IMO.

Let’s just agree Anet has so many homeworks about the whole league system. But Like they revitalized WvW and HoT maps (ectovine?), I think giving good rewards is a good starting point. If there is no one wanna play, why do they even need to spend resource for pvp?

I tried several matches at unranked. It’s so awful. It’s nightmare. The matchmaking doesn’t make any sense, it will just make you rage. I know I’m not good but I can notice at some point that people use some weird build and rotate poorly. It feels like the mm mixes amber player with ruby/diamond players. I don’t know how people don’t rage playing that.

PLEASE add a "Core only" pvp option.

Dear suffish, Good to know it may get better at the end of season. But idk, people seem to quit after they reach legend. If it’s not bcoz of the wing, I would probably quit after I reach legend. This topic is not another queue rant but to ask for more reasonable reward in PvP. Something to pursue after people get their wing and reach high tier division. I play at season 1 but skipped season 2, Now at season 3, I notice the playerbase decreased really greatly. I’m not sure whether gw2 playerbase decreased in general or not but I think giving meaningful reward will bring some healthiness to the pvp playerbase.

I like what kdaddy says and completely agree.

Stronghold suggestions

Stronghold is like desert borderlands. Anet wasted resources to built something that people don’t want because they can’t support it very well. The conquest and league system are broken so I doubt they will have resource to focus on this topic.

I wonder what’s wrong this season though, nobody even prestige 2+ right now which is extremely strange to me.

Also I am ‘stuck ’in diamond T7 because of the q times and when they pop I get those super strong legend players stomping me haha rip. I think there aren’t enough diamonds which in turn means there aren’t enough legends to make for an active scene.

I think the fact that some/a lot of people(maybe) have finished their wings so the playerbase also takes a big hit. Actually the matchmaking acts really strange. Most of my matchups is a total lose or win (blowout? my english is not good). I suspect the matchmaking is so confused because it doesn’t have enough player pool to make a fair matchup at high tier.

This really frustrates me. I like the game a lot. GW2 is the best MMORPG so far. The only option that I have is to play overwatch. But I digress.

I reached t4 legendary because I refuse to throw my games and keep trying to queue (while watching movies of course). I don’t think I will get any match again this season bcoz of the 15 pips range limitation.

Yesterday I tried to queue for around 6 hours without any match. So I guess that puts the final nail in the coffin.

~42.9% is the lowest you can get to progress.

LLLLWWW = net positive 1 pip.

Thx for the math. Here. 7 matches 1 pip. If they can grind it, Just let them with it.

If they can play that mind-blowing number of games, they probably have become good when they reach high tiers.

I get interrupted every time. Some people even interrupt rebound.

You may forget their radius gets bigger also. The first heal is 180 in radius. So if your suggestion is to make the biggest heal in 600 radius then it would make it stronger.

I was solo Q-ing last night after i finished my PvE reset raids.

I had queue times of 15, 18, 22, 25, 21 minutes etc. I even had 2 of my friends queueing (not with me, just queued). Ended up getting some lopsided wins and then losses. Freakin rip, stuck in T4 diamond since I don’t play NA prime time

IMO it’s easier to win at non prime time.

Do you feel S3 is better than S2?

Too much AOE cc, too many AOE conditions, too many brainless invincible specs. Even thieves are invincible now, the only class that ever took actual skill to play.

Game is a joke.

Wrong, bad thieves don’t know positioning or try to 1v1 when they can’t. Or when to kite then 1v1. Bad thieves also don’t bring condi cleanse or try to +1 i team fights but really end up getting cc and condi bombed b/c of positioning. Or don’t read patch notes and still try to hs spam.

So still takes some skill. Still see lots of horrible thieves in game.

There is this dodge-spamming thief though. IMO they only need to learn rotation, in teamfight “dodge dodge vault vault dodge vault block block block”

Just bcoz you can’t progress, doesn’t mean it’s worse. If it’s hard than it’s working as intended. Do you want anyone to become legends?

I have a suggestion. After a game is finished, Ask everyone if they want another match, If all say yes than the mm will divide the team again and reroll the map for the match.

Or just change the people who say no with other people.

Machined warhorn?

Hi guys. So I’m getting this weird RNG. I’m trying to complete “the north wind” ele specialization weapon collection.

I need to get an item from noxious pods and I’ve opened like 50 pods without finding it. Meanwhile I found the item for “Bo” thief spec weapon collection with just 4 pods.

I’m very doubtful now maybe I’m doing something wrong. I can open the noxious pods with any classes right?

I already unlocked the machined warhorn collection but I salvaged the plated warhorn I think.
