lol I would love this mechanic!

Wipe the entire team and then don’t cap he point so they won’t respawn!!

You are a noob for saying this.. Because if it wasn’t capped the point wouldn’t be contested.

I actually think it would be a great idea

Love you too duck <3

Ur dear friend, Ak

@sorrow
maybe so, what I saw on the vid was an unexperienced bunker necro with low condi dmg and no terror vs a bunker engi running elixir C (no one really runs it) on a 1v1 server during a staged fight, from an edited video.

and no one really runs AR, but that doesn’t mean the class should be nerfed because 2 terrible players one night got owned by someone running these traits on a hotjoin. a game shouldn’t be balanced around the lack of skill and QQ from a few

@Sorrow

the difference between 87 and 140 bleeds, it’s the dmg, as you saw on ron’s video, a bunker necromancer at low condi dmg was able to easily get him to 25% hp, without using terror or burning. If he woulda had those or normal condi dmg, he woulda easily killed the engi

also… the video was staged, once engi hits 25% the necro just spawns auto attack with 5s bleeds

Also… when do you ever see a necro holding home or pushing far point ? that’s just silly

also… thinking that pushing far and keeping the point neutal while holding 1-3 players at their home is hurting your team, that’s just silly…

Letter to OP

Good sir,

I would like to point out that you have a terrible attitude.

Thank you,

PS: A “good” theo-crafted team comp won’t assure success, the mental state and syg of the team matter as well, and It will be hard to preform at high level tPvP while googling highest bridges after ALOT of criticism over TS. Even if this second job is only 6h per week.

If you’re gonna use grandes, make sure you activate fast ground targeting on options, you will love it

and, HGH is very very simple and boring, spams elixirs, get might and spam pistol skills on cool, so you might not like it if you’re looking for more complex plays

Oh and also.. unless you run nades, your dmg ( burning, poison) will overlap with most classes and HGH don’t tend to put out high bleeds count so your damage might be very low unless you get lucky with ’em burns or bring nades

For leveling, make sure you have 10 points on tools and get speedy kits for perms swiftness, and then go 30 on explosives so u can get granadier, I’d recommend running Nades, Bomb Kit and Exlir gun, DPS is pretty insane on both condi/power builds (a little more insane on power tho)

Oh and stay away from Flame thrower unless you use it got the animation or utility, if you try to use it as a main dmg source(using auto attack) you will be very disappointed of the numbers.. cool animation tho

If It is then… lets hope some dev attention :S an actual mechanic not working as intended is a pretty big deal, hopefully I’ll be fixed by the time I get back From my trip

lol I would love this mechanic!

Wipe the entire team and then don’t cap he point so they won’t respawn!!

Can anyone test it ?

also, Throw Elixir R removes a condi, making it possible to remove that poison if timed right

no worries lol, it’s only a few and based on the comment they make.. they are gw2 most terrible players lol

It’s unreal all the silly examples that are being put out, just sad

lFacts

• if 3 condi classes can’t kill an engineer running around with 4k or less on tPvP… hotjoin is always a thing.

• If the build can’t kill an engineer running at 4k hp or less, then… sorry

• The only build! that AR can actually fully shut down is…Death Blossom spamming thieves… you should read the kind of mean comments they get :|

Personally, I’ll be kitten disappointed if we don’t get another kit…

Kits 4 Life!

LOL ADD ME UP ;) It’s a date!

I’ll be back home on wends, but hey! we’ll stream it <3

and sorry in advance… I won’t use 87 bleeds or shaman amulet, and I might burn you/fear you and all of that nonsense normal necros do :) I’ll even let you fight my condi engi too

and if you feel confident! we could put a little money on the line ;)

ronpierce.2760:

If Life Blast ALWAYS hits that hard (especially untraited) like 4-6k per hit, why don’t you see tons and tons of Power necks everywhere killing people in 4 seconds like its no big deal? Because you’re full of kitten.

cause terror spam is stronger and has better survival… power builds tend to
be glassy and add the fact that necro have 2 dodges, no vigor, stealth or invuls.. easy target to focus fire..

Try as hard as you can but laying wont take you anywhere… it’s weak, if you’re gonna make argument at least bring real facts.. Otherwise anyone who actually plays necro can easily call you out..

LOL real necros gotta be looking at @Ronpierce and shaking their heal lol

How can a power dagger necro catch a engi at 20% without a 25s cd immobilize? oh yah…. go on death shroud and spam life blast which hits got 4-6ks on power builds xP

it’s be extremely sad if Anet listen to that.. knowing that that guy is trying to run as PvP’s worst necro lol… Staging fights, promoting false information. how low does someone has to go in order to get something nerfed for no reason xP

For the record I’m not glass but my damage is fine, I’m not specced into life blast, so good job there. But also, its not as powerful as you make it out to be. Also, it does less damage further away. AND using this “bad engi build” I beat a legit power necro with it earlier, so no, I don think the Necro community is looking at me like kitten, they’re looking at you morons who can’t accept something is OP and defending it for 9 kitten pages. We’re getting nerfed. We know that, maybe you need to learn to accept your kitten can be OP too.

Ron lol I play necro, you can’t lie to me about dmg..

also, no legit necros run 700 condi dmg with shaman amulet, no Terror or dhummfire… 87 dmg bleeds ? LOL… ofc you’re never gonna die with AR against a staged opponent lol..

because med kit can be spammed as much as DS auto attack right ?

or wait… Lets say he healed, now he’s over 25% hp, stack a couple of condi and gg lol

it’s so easy to play around that trait, yet it’s extremely easy to play around that trait, if people QQ refuse to get on an engi and learn how it works, it’s a completely different story ;p

LOL real necros gotta be looking at @Ronpierce and shaking their heal lol

2.5 hours played on an Engi TOTAL, can make a build impossible to kill for a condi necro. That’s not esport, fans.

lol no one has called out ‘em legendary 87 dmg bleeds lol… what kind of full condi necro is that ?? no dhummfire ? Terror ? he didn’t even try to use doom LOL

sorry About The echo BUT!!.. Terrible staged fight :/

lol this has become rather long :|

Kitten that 1 engineer who punked the OP and caused ramdoms to notice a trait that has always been there! Kittens ;p

While we’re talking about “balance”, how about that Deceptive Evasion, it should have a 10s internal cool down

I wish we knew how we’re gonna get them tho

There are 2 possible ways…

Rewards from actual organized sponsodred tourneys which would require the player to be a top player on a top team and win.
Or
They are turning legendaries into skins, so the player would have to grind PvE, make the legendary and then conver it to a PvP item
Or
maybe both ?

Either way, it won’t be easy on immediate!

Can’t wait for trollbow tho <3

I would be fine if we get something like ranger and remove 3 conditions every 10s (4 with signet), which is deff alot stronger than 100% reduction while you run around with 4k hp or less struggling to survive.

Besides, people might logg on an engi by mistake and learn how easy it is to play around this trait : )

Eura stop bragging, you’re not even black!

and what’s with this ? Been gone for a week and everyone is looking for a team :|

Voz I choose you… wait, this isn’t Pokemon!

and they would have to waste initiative, a decent penalty for such advantage.

Turrets that work on PvE/WvW?

Turrets on PvP are on a good state, rifle and net turret are awesome, flame turret is actually good in some builds (altho you don’t seem too often) and Rocket Turret will win most all 1v1, thrump is the only one lack luster since it requires it to stay at meele range and does virtually nothing than other x3 blast finishers

so like a 5 cool down, and basically if you block their backstab, then they can’t use but agaian for 5s, umm great idea tbh

The mortar skills are fine as it is, it’s just little details

3 things that could be done to improve the mortar could be:

1. make if so you “get on the mortar” as soon as you use the skill without needing to press F to go in it the first time, like elementalist’s conjure weapon. It’s clunky and it bugs out the mortar having to “F” right after you summon it
2. Delay/Stuck/No-Fire Bug fixes
3. Dont let it auto fix the camara.. 99% of the time the camara ends up on akward positions that bugs with walls, rocks, trees and with the delays, it makes it a suicide skill on a fast action battle

Additional..

Remove the minimum range req, allow us to shoot at our feet to give us a change to deal with meele(at least pushing them away with #5)

LOL med kit useless, now how do I know the OP doesn’t play engineer

just because someone doesn’t know how to use it, doesn’t make it bad! the blunt truth

lol the more attention it gets, the more likely it will be nerfed… unless, that’s your true intention :O! To get engi nerfed!

just let the thread hit 2nd page and be forgotten : )

I actually like the idea alot, nades without granadier just feels weird… but you don’t always want to spend those 30 points on explosives

Teleport skill for engineer!!
and hopefully a new kit, yes I love kits… Or teleportation kit ? Maybe ?

1. Telease a bolt of lighting
2. Teleport to foe
3. Teleport to target location (ground targeted)
4. Teleport backwards/random location
5. Teleport foe somewhere….

Ultima.8673:

i can sense a new imbalancing is coming sooon….

that’s the plan for the rest of the year, they won’t be added then right away and judging by the wording, they won’t be adding them at once as well, it’ll be awesome to see what Anet brings to the table with the future patches!

Hopefully they bring shadow form back from gw1 <3

Allie Murdock.8152:

I believe Jonathan Sharp has mentioned this in the past, but I will repeat it in case you missed it. We are actually working on toning down skill particle effects.

:) thanks for keeping in contact for the community! Love it!

and hopefully, not too much is taken away, I’m actually happy about this and I can’t wait to make a fat black norm thief that shoots unicorns!! Can’t wait!

and LOL this is far from a QQ thread ;) it’s more about rejoice and a little dark humor, I can’t wait to lag troll people :) people just happen assume everything on forums now days!

New blog post bro lol new skills, traits and legendaries for PvP for the future!

I’m retooling thief so I can go trollbow and double quip!! If my bullets won’t kill yah, my funky sound animations will! promise made

countless people complain how much engi nades makes them lag, now lets wait till everyone is waving around a twilight! LOL

Legendaries on PvP, that’s gonna be epic!! can’t wait to see all ’em unicorns flying around while people yell, E-Sports!

lol those delays…. If it wasn’t for the random no fire, or random stuck, or repetition of the camara… I would deff use this as my main… I love ’em frost fields!

I run 30/10/0/0/30! full berserker with 4 kits(med, grande, bomb, elixir) and it works amazing!

I make it viable for fractals 48+ but then again, it might just be my weird play-style

They moved it out the H window, if you look on the bar on the top of the screen, you should see the 2 swords that will take you to the mist

amen

could you elaborate a little bit on what some of the benefits would be please and thank you

Such vicious cycle!

if you’re facing too many “immune” engineers, why not just switch to a hybrid build or learn to play around it.. it’s not hard to counter it once you know how the trait really works…

but then again, not too many engi’s run this trait, if you’re upset about it, it’s because 1 engi trolled you on 1 hot join match and since your build couldn’t kill it, it was automatically OP

lol you just had to go there… R.I.P 100Nades

Rifle is a control weapons, it comes with much more depth than the warrior’s rifle

play rifle warrior for a bit, you will find yourself not using skill 2 & 4 at all, just pew pre with auto attack while volley recharges.

Engineer rifle has dmg and that control which lets you position enemies where u need then to be

Eww demise sucks and I hate him

I mean I mean, tell him AK says hi..

LOL… people try really hard to QQ now days

Roll for initiative/heal have an evade long enough to trigger all marks… OR yet a better idea, if they have 2-3 people camping 1 point, go cap the other 2 and outnumber them on every fight….

sadly this is what happens when people judge a class they haven’t played :S bet no one knew marks expire.. surprise surprise!!

2 things….

• ALL kits are actually amazing
• Lesson or the day: don’t Auto attack

2 counter arguments

*Dependent…
*Why can’t my auto attack with the shortest cd and most likely common attack be powerful?

Dependent on what ? :p kits don’t need any other skills/traits to complement them they are awesome when you use 1 or 4

and because… FT Autoattack damages people mentally more that it does ingame to your enemy. after seeing “miss miss miss” and enemies not dying, they fall into deep depression and then let out all the frustration on forums

Any balance team could beat it :p, they are tough on 1v1 but in team fights, necros are the easiest to focus fire and to fight and kill, once those 2 dodges are out.. It’s GG for them, also necro are the seconds easiest class to stomp

Kavia.8249:

DeathMatch simply wouldn’t work on GW2 thanks to class balance

Currently Mesmer is the only class with reliable Ress, strong burst, boon hate, insane amounts of invulnerability and are 1 of the 2 classes that it’s impossible to stomp on the first try.

Death matches would be based around 1 guard and 4 Mesmer and maybe theif, unless Anet finds a way to give other classes without invils/stealth a way to defend against focus fire and complete boom clear. And also a reliable ress

Just wanted to pop in and point out that mesmers can stealth-stomped on first try if there are no targets for their downstate 2 around (cannot use the ability without a target). Stutter-stomp with or without blink is also effective.

Overall, though, mesmer downstate is quite similar to thief and both are typically berserker amulet builds that you can just cleave down. Every downstate has weaknesses.

Oh hey Kavia and yah, stealth stop is the only way but on a death match, which is mostly fights, it would be impossible to stomp and lol we both know ifs a Mesmer like you.. u can down 2 people faster than they could DPS Mesmer down xP

thief are still strong… most of them just continue going full GS with 0 survival and no condi removal

it would be based around 5 necros who never played before smashing their heads to the keyboard somehow they applied 48949848949848948948948948948945689418589419818948949848941521968894189489498894198598conditions and 104 fears

lool not at all, nercros are the easiest class to focus fire and they have the second easiest down state to get stomped on

Med kit is not bout team support, it’s more got tactical selfish plays and I love it!

strong heal on short cool-down, and then 3k* free heals. which can be stacked up to 9k if you’re waiting somewhere, and the easy access to free fury/swiftt makes it an amazing

Healing turret: Great Team Support heal
Med kit: AMAZING selfish tactical heal
Elixir X: meh meh for RNG lovers
