its to emphasize the DESPERATION of downstate. dramatic effect just like in hollywood
That really takes me back to my wow days of yore
I played a greatsword warrior when everyone else went OP Mace stun
omg another annoying cc warrior
why is ur screen black and white
then u don’t enjoy pvp enough to play it without pve rewards. i enjoy pvp enough to not care about pve rewards. just pwning ppl and losing to them is enough of an adrenaline rush for me.
if the game isn’t able to provide you that enjoyment from solely pvping, then the game needs to improve its core pvp….not tack on rewards for ppl to grind
look at counter-strike. no rewards. still fun still popular
Boone stripping is really hard on warriors because we depend so much on uptime of swiftness. We don’t have the 25% speed increase Signet’s.
warriors always use signet of rage, which is 3 boons. lol so warriors are always vulnerable to their own speciality??
who from our community will rise up and be the Ghandi of gw2 pvp and lead the players to peaceful protest? who will have the heart to stand their ground and the voice to express our discontent?
For the warrior, I have some ideas for implementing dual wield war horns..
Skills:
1. Blow it Up Yours
2. Toot the Horn
3. Suck in Air
4. Animal Calling: attracts minions and ranger pets to your side as they cover your body creating a secondary armor.
5. ??? (still brainstorming what this could be)
Here is a variation on offhand skills, including a new “Mace” utility
the “horn & mace” build
you use ur warhorn as a whistle with skills
1. STOP! (warns your enemy Dont come closer!
2. Blow and scream (blows ur whistle and screams for your allies to come to ur aid)
take the utility “mace (pepper spray)” so u can use it if a mesmer gets too close to u
(edited by gwawer.9805)
the devs who post in the pvp forum care a lot about pvp. but the rest of anet does not
for april fools is there a PVP minigame? i think SPVP should get a weird PVP map like maybe FFA deathmatch for us to test in april just for the heck of spicing things up. it wouldn’t take time/effort to implement it’s just a FFA deathmatch arena. just scrap together a map quickly from the super adventure box style or something and let us beat on each other.
who knows maybe it will become a mainstay
ze armors!! ze do nathing!
for SPVP the best build is the “whistle & spray” build
you use ur warhorn as a whistle with skills
1. STOP! (warns your enemy Dont come closer!
2. Blow and scream (blows ur whistle and screams for your allies to come to ur aid)
take the utility “pepper spray” so u can use it if a mesmer gets too close to u
They should’ve made it a spin kick like Ryu so you can kick people behind you…
Ohhhh my god why no respsones? im gonna cried tonight
This was meant as an April Fools and nothing more. We did not intend to critize the lack of GvG we just wanted to present original ideas on how it could be played out.
lol wusses
yes i would love a good flailing
yes tri-wield warhorn. inc a one-man-band build warrior
Next patch I would like to see implementation of dual wielding warhorns. I think warriors do not blow enough at the moment and I would like to blow more in the face of my SPVP opponents.
Skills:
1. Blow it Up Yours
2. Toot the Horn
3. Suck in Air
4. Animal Calling: attracts minions and ranger pets to your side as they cover your body creating a secondary armor.
5. ??? (still brainstorming what this could be)
lol eyahh next patch plz allow warrior to dual-wield warhorn!! i wanna blow as much as I can!
Today 6pm pst there will be a GW2 Pride parade in heart of mists on Anvil ROck. Specifically, the GW2 PVP Pride Parade (or GW2PVPPP for short). You guys should all show up to support. we will be gathering in heat of mists on the hotjoin NPC and then marching around HoM then teleport to Lion’s Arch to show off to the PVEr’s. Today is all about GW2 Pride

lol aprlz fools on all u guys!
i hate u sooo muich omg i fell for the joke im cried tonight
they want the mesmer to carry the team
actually WOW next patch is gonna make all gear in PVP have more similar stats. it’s a huge change
(edited by gwawer.9805)
Wait I thought the change was only held back in world versus world because they fixed culling the world versus world and were afraid that fixed culling as well as the stealth nerf would be too much. So the change to stealth four seconds DEbuff is not active in S PVP either?
would be idiots not to capitalize on this oppurtunity. mmo-style 3rd person view pvp still needs a king atm. could it be gw2? hmmm the ball has been in their court
how do u block retaliation? is that like blocking yourself?
CD 10sec on frenzy? lol
lol u guyssss
Right now custom arenas, leaderboards and spectator mode are higher in the priority queue, but this is still something we’ll be dealing with later.
Why are queue times so long
Quickness was nerfed, so No you won’t get a quick response.
Oh yeah I did my own poll as well. At a 500 participants, 435 voted yes keep the 50% change. 51 people voted I don’t care. And 14 voted to revert the change.
That’s nice and all and imma let you finish, but hundred blades can do 60K damage in a single slash . In a single slash
(edited by gwawer.9805)
i just want pvp to improve FASTER. anet has such a huge opportunity here cuz there isn’t much copetition for 3rd person view ability-based battlegroupds/arena PVP
like i said before, they can have the market cornered, if they choose to put in the dev effort.
retaliation another passive ez mode thingy. nerfed? good lets keep it that way!!!
yes i did …pvp sigh =(
you know i was gonna make a similar post in the GEneral forums to get their attention. did they move this post here from general?
well said. although it’s an exaggeration that they haven’t done anything. they’ve done improvements, just very very slowly.
anet had the mmo-style PVP market CORNERED (and i mean cornered) during august. this game would have exlploded in the pvp scene if it had the features ready.
(edited by gwawer.9805)
titles on nameplates are annoying as ….titles on nameplates. which hogbrained UI designer decided it was a good idea
feels like a slap in the face honestly, at least the other posts they were actually trying to be good liars
yeah well i bet jon is tired of having to keep secrets from us, but his job depends on it. you, like boss calling him to a meeting type of stuff to warn him about giving out too much info. what a crappy company policy.
i mean i watch SOTG and i feel the jon’s are good guys and are decent pvper’s but their company policy is holding them back from making a decent pvp game. not just the “dont tell” policy but also the focus on PVE.
links work if u copy/paste
wish PVE was a 20 dollar game completely stripped of anything related to PVE or WvW.
The combat engine in this game is so awesome for a MMO PVP game. Too bad. If i had millions of dollars i’d try to license the engine or something and create a PVP GW2 knockoff
this is such a opportunity market right now. there’s basically not great MMO PVP gmae out there atm. if anyone is wise enough to corner it they will make alot of $$$.
(edited by gwawer.9805)
pve is holding pvp back. u know why? cuz before they implement warrior changes in PVP they gotta run it b the PVE team first. what a bunch of horsecandy
conversation between jon and his upper management
jon : hey sir warrior pvp is weak im gonna do some buffs this week
pve boss: ok give me a list of those changes by monday and ill take a look
jon sharp: sure thing sir!! karl lets make some changes and balance this kitten!
monday…
boss: hmm ok these changes you want to be pvp only? i prefer our game to be fluid transition between pve and pvp
jon: yeah unfortunately i believe that will come at the expense of both pve and pvp.
boss: wuut?
jon: we end up having a mediocre pve and mediocre pvp game if we do that. but if we seperate them then we can have best of both worlds
boss: huh? no no. i want pve’er’s to feel connected to their characters at all times. it would be confusing to step in PVP to find your skills are different
jon: they can relearn…
boss: LISTEN ‘ERE BOY you just do as I say otherwise I cud ’git real nasty wiith ye! ye gots that boy?
jon: ooo…ook sir i’ll do my best
(edited by gwawer.9805)
pllleeease turn it off. it is so annoying clutter UI
why would they move this
“Fun fact; over 7 out of 10 players on release actually played pvp over pve. This game’s selling point was it’s pvp (this is why it sold 2 mil coppies), that it would be the first real mmorpg esport. Why anet even has a team working on pve at this point is beyond my comprehension (it’s suicide). They simply can’t compete with the volume and speed of pve content output offered from other studios within this genre, they cornered the niche of competitive pvp and they failed to realize that.
I mostly blame NCsoft though, they’ve never rely had to deal with a competitive pvp title or a dev team focused on such a level of pvp. I think it’s unfair to blame anet for giving us unfinished pvp, they are just a subsidiary that flopped and now has to take orders from some idiot in a suit who thinks gaming is nothing more than a pass time for children."
_
kitten they really had the mmo pvp market cornered. WoW pvp was in shambles. we had so many wow pvp’er’s ready to hop onto gw2…including myself. but i think ncsoft and the higherups at anet wanted gw2 to be a big pve game comparable to WoW. so they diverted all men to work on PVE and left PVP in the dust.
(edited by gwawer.9805)
seems like people are just venting their pent up frustration after all these months. the last patch and this one are the ones when we all decided to “blow our load” so to speak. we couldnt hold it in any longer. remember first few months how nice we were? how helpful and constructive?
yeah and then we became more cynical, but had hopes and were still telling each other be be patient/understanding/constructive
and now i can tell most people just want to troll the forum hard because it is a way to release the tension. you know, like when your team looses a soccer match cuz their goalie wasn’t paying attention and you get mad so you start a stadium riot. this is something like that lol.
look at it this way devs. it’s a rite of passage. if you can get yourselves through this, you will only be stronger!
