Guild Wars 2

LETS THE ELE QQ BEGING!!

Meteor shower is OP Tho! specially if you have over 200% luck

Spooko.5436:

watching the Ready Up? Round Up? wuttteva on these traits was just painful,

on the real stinkerz, Karl`d be all, “I’ve been having fun testing this on this really terrible build internally” to try and sell them like anyone with a brain would use them

I’d like to say each class got at least 1 good trait, but it’s a lie,

and then there are the really fetid stinkerz, like the ones that heal u for 5% of ur crit damage?!?! 5%?!?!?!! 1/20?!!?! seriously?!!?!?!

Add some kush, couple of mushrooms and any testing will
Be fun!

500 heals on a 10ks hit!!! OP plz nerf the cheap version of signet of malice!

Stone Heart is so strong lol…. Specially for the upcoming bunker staff eles

Ether renewal + earth (Protection/stab/immune to Crits) = invulnerability aka god mode!! and that’s not including healing rain or water heals!

Also…!
Blinding ashes ? Passive blinds every 5s! now add an instant burst from S/F!
on top of projectile reflects, invuls and more blinds!

Does lighting rod has an internal cd ? if not it could be pretty troll with stff earth 4 and lighting field! since it will trigger multiple times

I would love this, Blinding powder = permanent anti finisher!

Shhhhh apt! you’re gonna get in the way of my perma blind, instant cast burst!! keep any comments on the low until i have made enough people cry ;D

Very similar to my r68 chest…… progression wokring as intended, moltres go home, ur drunk

Crossing fingers this is the new fire trait! <3

It was easier to increase rank points because they can take them away anytime.

if they lower the amount needed, what is the right ammount? if they make the cap too low and need to revert it, now they would be stealing away ranks from those who benefited at first..

still tho… compensation should have been given to all the loyal players.

Progression felt too slow, specially for those who played casually!
a dedicated loyal PvP player would have taken some crazy ammount of time (like 5 years) to achieve rank 80!

Now they made it so it’s realistic for casual/Hotjoin heroes to progress faster and
Catch up with those loyal dedicated duumb players who actually spent thousands of hours actually playing games for which they were not rewarded for!

It was apparent all along that the rank system would recieve an increase in gain.. IMO people should’ve seen this coming and waited with ranking up. They chose to invest time and thats their own fault.

we know at some point they are gonna add templates which might encourage build diversity, should i stop PvP’ing until then ? or everyone should just not play until they add rewards?

that logic makes no sense because they are gonna continue to add/change things over time! all im saying, Anet really needs to considered the people who have been loyal to PvP and the game.

Counter to decap engi = TEEF!

try it… they become useless

ps: all hambows are trash! <3

Since the patch! the game has lagged out twice, it doesn’t kick me out! just leaves me on map by myself showing router issues! and if i try to restart! the client won’t let me logg in!!

TWICE! at the end of a game! (between 30-100 points) and both times i was awarded dishonorable stacks!! -_________- ! Screw the reward! why do i get dishonorable for laggy servers?

could someone answer why we got only rank reward increase?

Hotjoins:

• Earn titles faster/easier
• Earn more rank points per hour
• No annoying Q times/matchmaking
• Players with better looking gear!

what are you doing with your life son!

In guild wars 1, stances could only be active 1 at the time… dunno what happened from there

Double endure pain, bersker stance = same as invul! on a character who only needs to land 1 skill to win! CC chain ? insane condi pressure at 0 condi dmg ?

manveruppd.7601:

I thought magic find only affected drops, and not stuff you got from chests or loot bags? So basically only mobs in pve. So I assumed if we got chests of loot they wouldn’t be affected by magic find.

Since AI Plays such a big role in the game, maybe they’ll make it so spirts, minions, clones drop loot ? I wouldn’t mind getting a precursor off a flesh golem!

Spooko.5436:

Dear Marvink, I am applying for the position of the Ruins Node Bunker for the map of Raid of the Capricorn, hotjoin conquest mode.

I am willing to play Spirit Ranger and only Spirit Ranger in this position.

Get Sea World’d or gtfo of my RUINS

ty for ur consideration and ur continued frennship

spirit ranger is soft!! go man mode and get a perma evade teef in there brah!!

R.I.P Voz! you will never be forgotten as the chillest bunker engi!
#Esports

Ghoul, my friend…. no patch will ever reward veteran loyal players! get off that cloud!

1. Probably, the combat system is fun and i’ll continue to find 1-Shot builds to amuse me
2. Yes
3. Most likely

MMR is a different team. Justin works on MMR as a server programmer, while designers and artists work on new game modes.

Re: low pop
Reward changes and a few other things coming in the feature build should help with that.

Aren’t you concerned that removing rewards right now will make things worse in the short term? I still don’t understand the logic of removing glory now.

it’s probably gonna be a big patch and they are splitting it into 2, so they are cleaning out the house before they bring the new furniture in….

Lord Hammer Hand.4815:

this is the reason this plyers get to farm rank points for killing newbies they must feel like a kitten or the illusion of being good players after winning this kind of match lol.

actually its boring and the reason all the players with the “illusion of being good” stop playing!

its not fun to stomp a newb team, or face the same team over and over!

Blinking dots on top of teamates when they are in combat!! will make it easier to know when someone is capping a point or defending it (Maybe increase intensity depending on how many players there are)

Hi, I can play….
Zerker 1 Shot engi
zerker 4 Signet teef
zerker Staff ele
zerker Axe/Axe Ranger
zerker 4 Mantra Mesmer
Etc…

A little about me:

• I’ll run terrible builds with little to no survival,
• I will go down and required to be ressed several times during the game,
• I bring 0 team support

Pros:

• Enemy’s target will be on me 95% of everygame

CALL ME

noob translation: Give us the date of the patch, or we’ll tie texi to a tree?

Allie Murdock.8152:

I’m going to try to answer as many of these questions as possible, but keep in mind that some of this stuff we can’t talk about.

are you single ? ;D totally E-Sports related!

I do.. the glassiest kind!

This post is just ironic because ele has always been about sustain, dps and LOTS of room to mess up! once they gain some of their sustain back, it will go back to being all about mindless rotations and key smashing like before.

ps: Any glass cannon with little survival takes skill! (exept PW teefs ofc).

GS/SF Shatter mesmer, galss cannon ele, and glass cannon engi take more skill than any other class in the game. Nade/bomb kit engi on the other hand, takes no skill at all, and it’s ridiculously effective.

again, any glass cannon takes more skill since they usually come with very little survival and small room for mistakes.

warriors, MM etc are also effective and require 1/10 of the keysmashing involved.

It’s okay! Eles! Did not take skill back in the day when they ran godmode, Once they get buffed again, they will go back to taking no skill!! spam spam spam!!

PS: …. rotations, are simple.. on every… class! :/ if we’re talking about keys pressed! engineers would be master class!

I like how blue team showed no mercy.

We do show mercy, we let them get past 0 points for them to get credit for the game.

Show real mercy! only cap 1 point and spawn camp for the remaining 15 mins! LIKE A MAN!

No, let them trip cap and win by kills.

15 mins 100kills! you got a challenge!

Riz was bringing down the blue’s MMR! now matchmaking makes sense!

lol….

The last we heard was that luck would influence the future PvP reward system. Devs have confirmed this in several ready up livestreams.

Personally I would much rather have LESS RNG and more goal-oriented rewards.

Ah ok, ty ^^

My only worry is that we’ll have to loot in the middle of combat or something… which would be horrid. Problems like looting instead of ressing an ally happen in WvW… would be worse in PvP : /

I would not worry about that. There’s been no precedent ever in the history of gw spvp for them to do anything like this.

BRO!!! GW1 on the december flux! WINTER PRESSENTS DROP!

Incurafy.6329:

What you guys fail to realise is that initiative is a cooldown mechanic. If you interrupt the HS into BP then you have cost them 3 initiative which takes 3 seconds to regenerate passively. That means that every time you interrupt a Thief skill that costs initiative, you take away from them the amount of seconds it requires to get it back.

Not to mention that if they dropped BP and then you interrupted HS, they’ve lost 9 initiative, which is a 9 second cooldown to regain.

I seriously can’t explain this in any other way. Thief = interruptible, just like every other profession.

^ best explanation!!!

I wish the PvP forums would be divided between solo/TQ and Hotjoins… would improve discussions so much.

Note says that it de-targets when assigned a key/button.

love you so much! <3 naming my first born after you

stop targeting would be amazing!!!!

stop casting you can set it, go to options and set a keybind for stow weapons ( it stops all cast times)

CMstorm.8679:

Im such genius. Much intelligence. 5M4RT!

increase the number of strikes by 10 and increase the spinny speed.
increased radius to 180 from 130. Prahblam Salvd! Now u can Spin2Win!

Mila! NO! just NO!!! STAPH!

ps: Axe 5 is fine… it’s bugged but fine. 4 is completely worthless tho! if they add something decent to it people would run it. something with some range

No wonder PvP is dying!!!

Marvin keeps on bullying all the new players! >:(

Make quaggan a playable race in PvP only!!! and watch the community grow!

agree, every player that has abused this since release should get perma banned!

Empathetic Fighter.2065:

No skill required, 100% effectiveness, spammable CC, no skill ceiling at all.
Reminds me of HamBow.

Decap engi can’t kill you 0_o

Axe/sword / LB warrior beats hambow reliably

these are terrible suggestions :/ a heal that locks you in place ? destroying the heal and messing with IP is the solution…

Condi meta is over…… we’re on bunker meta :/

Chaith.8256:

Yeah.. you buy t3 cultural or equilivant Dragon level gear from vendor, and salvage it. Welcome to Dec. 10th, 2013

its a made up pic,you moron.

insulting people out IGNORANCE is….. classic good thing you’ll never make it out of hotjoins…

but for anyone else… yes you can get dragons tokens by salvaging Nightmare/T3 cultural armor like Chaith said, its random but possible

oops, meant to put a while back back when things were heated between GvG and PvP, and thats basically how the dispute was ended. many GvG guilds fought vs PvP pugs and won none. so idk :/

all im saying is, you can’t judge the players so harsh, it might not look as pretty as stacking while spamming AoE on a the target. but if you sit back and pay attention to the game, you will see the personal skills and individual plays of the which had a huge impact on the over all battle.

Jinx.7258

Just throwing it out there, top GvG guilds came to PvP and get destroyed, out 4-6 games they could only get around 3 kills :/

yes, build might be different, strats might be different but player skill is also different.. if you watch the game, every player, even tho they didnt stack or waited to be told to dodge.. they were all able to pull plays that would instantly change the tie of a battle. GvG WvW might “look” more organized because of the stacking but doesnt mean its better or more effective.

K U T M.4539:

Necros can have IP when engis get Torment, terror, and decent fear up time.

This

MM is Not a build for team fights. its mainly used on side points where they can easily win most 1v1

and….

• Minions are the clutter and they are absorbing most dmg/CC and burning the enemy’s cooldowns.
• THERE IS NO WAY TO WATCH A MINIONS HP! :p is not like the MM can actually heal them, for pull them away from AoE. :p

Are you sure they are doing it for the rewards? and not that they want to 2Q or 3Q
