Can we please make guardian blind stack? All conditions dished out are stacked. Since we are probably the only class that deal the most blinds and our “live saver” at times. I rather deal 1-10 second of blind compared to 10 seconds of “first attack will miss”

No because that would be ridiculous. Thieves would never be hit, and it makes it 10x harder for melee to hit anything.

I don’t see any issues with that, perma stealth vs short blind. 10 seconds is probably too long, but if they are talking about immobilize stack. That’s already OP as it is with 5 stacks. Reducing stacks doesn’t fix anything, 3 stacks is 3 seconds which is still plenty of time for a spike. So don’t see the issue of blinding for 3-5 seconds since half our skills are already on long CD.

It’s very cute how ET talks so big….so far behind.

Nothing but love, nothing but sweet sweet badge farming love. ;P

Well, we may not be able to beat you in points thanks to our bad start, but we can still take out your WPs.

you should post better screencaps. those BL were almost entirely red from us Night Krewe

Kelnis.1829

I have a ‘working list’ of potentially balanced and viable solutions for the Guardian class, but most people provide wildly exaggerated skill and trait changes that would too violently affect the meta. However, I do not provide such feedback without context from a dev.

How does your list compared to the one i posted?

As per my post, dev’s will need to look into fixing what we have currently as opposed to traits. Weapon set is ultimately the first thing to consider before changing traits. No point in changing a trait when your weapon is flawed to begin with.

GoM, how many friggin mesmers do you have?

If you are the bunch of guys that held hills over the weekend, and vsing a guardian from (BoM) and a warrior (IoM). We had a nice fight vsing 3 mesmers, 1 guardian(KIA), 1 ele(KIA) before we were taken down by more people :P

I got something like 22 levels yesterday on my mesmer during the Extra Life marathon (finally dinged 80 at around 3 AM). If you saw a blue-haired norn chick wearing Mardi Gras colors, then you’ve met Party Bus Swaggins.

Although you are GoM, have a +1 for your effort for a charity, i didn’t see your blue haired norn chick since i play on crap settings. Hope you raised some great funds for your time

Personally i would prefer to have weapon skill set to be revamped or refined. We already have good boons and utilities. What i feel is the lack of synergised weapon with it.

Hammer

Everyone agrees that the hammer is literally, a hit and miss. Animation too slow, cast time too long and overall effect is rather meh

1) Symbol of Protection – 1 Second cast time from 1 1/4, well we know it’s a heavy weapon, but everytime you cast these symbols everyone has moved on.
2) Mighty Blow – Blows so much your hit rate is sucks. 1/2 second cast time instead of 3/4. And if Cripple is added so they don’t run away, great!
3) Zealot’s Embrace – Great skill, except wave travels a little slow? Just myself personally casting it and feels like everyone sees it coming and dodge away miles before it reaches them.
4) Banish – Basnish so hard you don’t even hit them half the time. Either give us lower cool down or increase range effect. Trading a decrease in damage is fine, it is meant to be a crowd control skill after all.
5) Ring of warding – 1/2 second cast time would be nice, but unesscary

Staff

Possibly our best asset as a Guardian, swiss army knife of uh.. staffs. It AOE, Heals, Gives Swiftness, Mights and Crowd Controls.

1) Orb of Light – Nothing wrong but would love for it to travel on a flat plane? Half the time people untarget and their top down view means that the orb goes into the ground!

Greatsword

Another well thought out weapon! Might, Crowd Control, Symbol with retaliation

1) Whirling Wrath – Just a suggestion to change away from random projectiles, i know people like that, but atleast give us an option to trait for spinny of death like warriors and thiefs have. I mean most the time when we cast this, we are literally next to the target anyway.

2) Leap of Faith – Maybe a tooltip on distance? I am assuming it is 130 range like a normal GS range.

Mace

Quite an underrated weapon, very useful in single PvP

1) Faithful Strike – Like the hammer, this skill feels too slow to cast. 3/4 of a second would be nice. Or give a base increase in heal

2) Symbol of Faith – Good skill, too bad everyone kites out of it. Give the Symbol either more Regen or cast Stability for the duration of the Symbol. That’ll give the enemy incentives to attack or defend.

Sword

Our melee weapon used mostly as a middle range weapon.

1) Sword Wave – How is this a projectile when skill says “wave”, Just a little pet peeve when i use a sword in Jade Maw and those things reflect projectiles
2) Flashing Blade – Great skill, once again tooltip on distacce for blind?
3) Zealot’s Defense – Great skill. Would be nice if the shield casted can be bigger or have it surround the player instead.

Scepter

One of the good weapons, but incredibly flawed by the auto attack

1) Orb of Wrath – Wow just wow… so slow it makes everyone feel like Neo dodging these.
2) Smite – Maybe change it to a symbol for combo field?
3) Chain of Light – Increase to 5 stack of Vulnerability would be nice. 2% more damage, 5% overall is great

Focus

Ray of Judgement – Just like Orb of Wrath, by the time it bounces off anything, everyone is already out of range.

Shield

Shield of Judgement – But we aren’t dealing any judgement. 3 second protection for a 30 second cooldown skill is quite an insult. Decrease cooldown or add more utility like Cripple / Chill. Atleast we’ll be dishing out Judgement. Dredd Style

Torch

1) Zealot’s Flame – Why stop at 3 targets, max it to 5
2) Cleansing Flame – Great skill, only if your attack connects. Quite a delay trying to follow someone with this skill

GoM, how many friggin mesmers do you have?

If you are the bunch of guys that held hills over the weekend, and vsing a guardian from (BoM) and a warrior (IoM). We had a nice fight vsing 3 mesmers, 1 guardian(KIA), 1 ele(KIA) before we were taken down by more people :P

Alternatively… instead of 1v1v1, how about a ladder with just 1v1?

This would

1) give better representation of a server strength vs another server
2) less 2v1 griefing
3) less objectives to take, hence less stuff to defend which gives lower population servers better chance to fortify

On the topic of World Population, it is hard to really give much feedback not knowing the data.

Please run a series of logs and display the statistics?

Example,
ET has X amount of players registered on the server, X amount of players are split into these regions.

Out of X players, the number of unique players entered WvW during Week 1 is X, out of X players, these players are split into these regions.

We know for the fact there are population imbalances. Without proper data, all we are doing is throwing suggestions to you devs.
Data is probably the biggest asset you can have, with these data you can start thinking of questions like below

1) Is it worth splitting/merging a server on these numbers?
2) Should we try and segregate PvE Worlds from WvW Worlds?
3) Should we implement Dynamic Map scaling?
As much as we love big battles, what happens when a server has 10x more the amount beating down on a server with less players?
Maybe scale the amount of map/objectives so the smaller server has a chance in defending?
Bronze Tier would appreciate this, we definitely would be able to hold off assaults from large numbers if all of us are able to defend a smaller number of objectives.
4) Should we introduce a new mode to WvW?

Fun suggestions (take it with a grain of salt)

King of the hill mode

3 servers starting position, 7 camps, 5 towers, 3 different bridges, 1 keep.

How will it work?

1) All servers start on the bottom of the hill, next to each other.
2) Fight your way to capture towers, hold 2 towers to gain access across a bridge over instadeath moats. the combination of towers dictate which bridge to cross
3) Once across the bridge, fight for the keep. Players run supply to build siege weapons, if they lose their tower the bridge is lost and open to be wiped.
4) There is no supply in the keep, supply runs are from players. Chain of supply, Camp → Tower → Keep

I love it when everyone chases a support guardian… and i’ll be like

How i am imagining our morning krewe as a night krewe member

Devon.9061:

Guys back on track… Why Anet Putting PVE kitten in my WvW?!!?

coz ANet can’t differentiate between WvW to PvE to PvP to GvG

apparently we all need carrot on stick in order to enjoy ourselves

psst HoD, try attacking the green corner in EB, i hear they give good loots

I don’t think that was directed at you Jeknar, there are a few issues need to be ironed.

Spica, post on the ET forums and we can discuss further.

People make mistakes, people learn from such mistakes.

I am also biased towards my view

I see DH attacks our tower, then SF attacks our tower. And both servers alternatively having a go at our keep.

To me it seems like SF want DH to be in second and we are fighting hard against that.

How you’ll feel when you join ET

Nightshade.2570:

Oooooh I just had to respond to this, we don’t just have ladies night, but we have a whole calendar coming of our ET WvW girls. We really are girls, that like to WvW and Pvp, actually the women can get the rowdiest if you ask me!

Can confirm, Very loud.

Especially when they have been drinking bottles of confidence while running into enemies.

Pretty Pixie.8603:

Please check the shoutbox on our community forums, LeviN.

Thanks Pretty Pixie, glad to see it somewhere.

Unfortunately players that love to grief do not read forums and aren’t usually community players. Unless they get called out in game by a guild or server member they do not quit.

A simple rule I stress regardless, do not engage past the bridge, quite simple.

Most of the time when we play WvW regardless of win/lose, one or two will call out to idiots chasing players to spawn. Our players know enough how it feels to have it done and will not condone those type of actions.

Your server regardless of population should be setting examples of these players, not going “oh some kitten server did it to us, we can do it too”

Just playing on ET BL over the weekend, and wiping YB off multiple times in our Bay and Hill.

In other news, fair fight SF, glad to see it happening

Weekly Bump

Hi Chris,

Just to say a job well done. This is basically the first step to improving the company’s image. Having a staff members like yourself that talks to the community is definitely in the right direction.

Suggestions I like to make are as follow

1) Bug Tracker
This will not only save you man hours of sifting through all those internal bug reports we send, but also a central place for players to submit and keep track of the issues. Users that have submitted a ticket will receive an email with a ticket number, along with a link to the bug tracker. Using their GW2 login, they can modify the ticket to upload screenshots / log files.

2) Testing process, i like the idea plus you get a pool of testers for free (yay). My negative for this, I can imagine a few bad seeds that would abuse this. IE, discovering a game breaking bug and not reporting it. Not to mention your live update leaks. My suggestion forth is NDA and account termination. Maybe a process for users to apply to access PTR?

3) Community Reach. Just like what you are currently doing, we don’t mind seeing a post from dev about an idea or process.

In Game Suggestion

Seriously man… where’s the dance synchronization command we used to have? Don’t you want a row of manly Naked Norns dancing in unison? GW1 had /dance (countdown number) and anyone else that /dance in that period would dance in unison

High-Resolution screenshot (set resolution you want) – this needs to come back as an option. This is essentially free PR for you guys. Think of the screencaps people can do in social media saying “hey guys, i am playing this awesome game. Check out my screencap of my awesome toon”

Thanks for reading.

Although its not free – 800 gems is still quite cheap

ET Welcomes All!

late post but thanks for the awesome fights last night (oceanic time)

We took GoM EB Keep while AR has broken down the doors and got wiped from the Keep. Props up to the GoM member who messaged us and gave us a thumbs up for wiping them out of the keep.

AR you guys were vicious outside of Golanta, we wiped numerous times trying to get your sieges down.

The number of 3 way skirmishes is so high it is not funny.

All in all, awesome night, good fights.

Here’s a picture of a 3 way, GoM wiped at Golanta while ET observed and assessed the situation, and yes… out manned buff for the people who think ET has zergs everywhere

sorry to hear you didn’t get to play with higher ranked server.

so please gtfo from our spawn

http://i.imgur.com/JpiDSC9.jpg

I apologize, I really hate when we spawn camp. It’s not fun for any of the groups involved. I’ll bring it up in the commander’s meeting tonight for sure. Hoping for good fights this week, see you all on the battle field.

There is no such thing as spawn camping… People coul use the other two exists, but still they wanted to run unto IoJ zerg at our door.

You have nothing to apologize for… ET need to stop being stupid and use alternatives when they are avaible.

unfortunately not all in ET is smart

Either way out manned and having siege built in front is not cool in general.
