Guild Wars 2

Fire+air…

Even with the +250 power you wont do as much damage compared to these air and/or fire sigil..

Thats why thiefs run it because its a free 2,5k hit on top of your normal hit.

250 power is around 12% dmg boost. Thats not enough compared to the sigils

Wanna know the professions they will talk about in the skillbar.

Thanx waffler and panic! Your right about the chasing part.. They really cant chase me so i think i run next time and just ignore them. it will be more annonying for them because they can only do duels and whats more annoying if they cant chase a person ghehe, thanx!

BrunoBRS.5178:

alternatively, you could try playing one yourself for a while, watching some videos to learn the “tricks of the trade” so to speak, and then see what gets you killed.

Doing it now.. and its easymode

> INSTANT steal that does confusion and much more crap
> from that your in melee range do INSTANT shadow strike (INSTANT!!!) that does also torment AND shadowstep away.. ofc thats simple it is…
> Pew pew pew pew pew (your already in range)
> when opponent does get into melee range just do CnD if that doesnt work well then there are tons of other ways..
> and ofc the sneak attacks from stealth hmmmm nice

Just so much into 1 weaponset.. not even talking about the other weaponset. Or utility skills

The skills are just way to easy to land and to fast… only CnD has some casttime but a freaking 1/2 sec ISSNT long!! try hitting thief with a warrior.. those skills are MUCH more slower.

Haha Eloquence > http://youtu.be/k0YDuSLXcX8?t=3m16s love it! :-)

But yeah the Prediction issnt always ending very well.. anyways the stealth alone is annoying but OK i can deal with that.. but the 100% passive bleeding from RANGE is just way to easy for a class like that.

Nvm! Got some great answers:

They apply confusion, poison and bleeding from stealth and all they do next is shadowsteb away and:

Pew bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed

Shadowsteb > confusion > poison > sneak attack

Pew bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed
Pew more bleed

Sorry but that builds is SO easy and it works!!! yeah i can hit him once, but ofc he just shadowsteb away and do it all over again.

Sorry but issnt this build kinda lame/too simple?? most of the conditions they do from stealth.. and all they need to do is shadowsteb away to create some distance and the conditions do the rest..

even IF its a short bleeding on just spamming 11111111 the bleeding becomes much longer in wvw, sorry but they really need to remove 100% bleeding from a RANGED weapon on AA.. yeah warrior got it but on a melee weapon.. make it like the ranger > bleeding from behind/side.. this build makes me kinda sad how simple and stupid it is..

Ow yeah ahhaha, even if do almost win from him he can OFC!! always useShadow refuse… i love that skill in wvw. :-(

Hmm cant win -Poef- gone

In this movie its MUCH much better.. see pic below
(second shot in that picture is something i cant find in black citadel)
Compared to the Bane we have now.. *pic 2

We will see, and for the record, i dont complain about rangers.
I complain about warrior GS, the weapon could really need some fix/buffs. rush is nice for running but the skill sucks at hitting.. make it a 900 leap or something..
100b (what i ALREADY where saying in this topic) you can remove some damage from 100b in return we get a mobile 100b.. so we dont NEED other weapons for a 100b (maby new 50b) so even GS becomes good in pvp.

hey i gave valid reasons why 100 b should stay the same!

Allot of people* better? :-)

o cmon pls, i dont play ranger but this thread is silly (i do plan on lvling a ranger tho, gs ftw!)

first u say u r stuck on gs for 2 yrs, well, then u state u dont wanna leave gs now

u as warrior complain about ranger getting rapid fire buff, so , rifle skill 3 is like that no?(may be bit worse, but it still got killshot, now dont go saying rifle sux for war, cause from what i heard, longbow sux for ranger as well)

100 b hits waaaaaay harder than rapid fire

meh had further stuff to point out but forgot em all, too sleepy i guess, gonna edit if i remember em

ah and one nerf, one timed dodge evades now most of rapid shots hits, ever thought about that?

100 b cleaves rapid shot pierces ONLY if traited, and u would be sacrificing stuff, like spotter or the new gm trait or the other modified gm trait

gs on warrior doesnt have crap dmg in meele like longbow does

Uuuh did i see a different ready up or?? i saw some great buffs for engies..

ASP.8093:

As a warrior, you’re not “stuck” with Greatsword. There are so many good weapons to choose from!

If you’re parking GS in PvE, it’s because the damage is great and mobility doesn’t matter when you’re stack-tanking a boss.

For PvP, try some of your copious stuns and immobilizes to make that hundred-blades connect. Or try a weapon set with more built-in control.

So i have to just leave GS for PVE? and i cant talk about it to make it better in PVP?

And so warriors are the only one that NEEDS to have a different weapon set just to land 1 skill on its OTHER weapon…

Bryzy.2719:

Suck a lemon. Rangers have been in need of this update since the game’s release. We’ve been behind every other profession by a significant margin. Warriors have dominated this game. Even with these new improvements, rapid fire still won’t be as hard-hitting as 100b.

yes it does, you forget its only 2,5 casttime where 100b is like what 4sec??

I am not saying RAngers dont deserve this buff, i am saying Anet could make GS much better for warr in pvp and WVW.. now 100b is only good in PVE.. but when you nerf some of its damage but make it mobile maby faster it could be much better in pvp but a little bit less good in pve

It seems rangers are much better now with weapons compared to warriors.

When does warriors get a MOBILE and faster 100b.. (ofc some damage reduction also)

We are stuck on this pve weapon now for 2 years where all other classes get cheap 100b skills that are mobile/faster/range

Defy pain: “Activates endure pain when struck below 25% health..”

Ok, so it ONLY activates when your health is below 25% health AND only when you get hit below that treshold… (and that hit still does damage also) thats kinda terrible if you ask me.

Most warriors have 20k health. so you must be below 5K health..
But most of the time you aint just perfect around 5k health.. lets say 4,5k health.
Now you get hit again by lets say 3k.. that 3k will still hit you and only now endure pain is active at 1,5k health… at this % health your already doomed when endure pain ends.

Even after Fort Salma is destroyed and a dragon is announced they are still afraid for Centaurs… lol

yup!!1 thanx, never tought about that kitten wvw bonus points… lol :-P

Wyrden.4713:

check ur wvw rank points, u maybe got defence against guards skilled there and that causes retaliation procs.

and next time tell wich game mode if i am wrong

HMmmmm i have been testing against them, ty!! that could be it, still weird i dont get any boons from furious reaction. or they hit to low ofc

I get this also, but i think this happends when you aim on your target when he is invull..
Like the first 2 sec when someone goes down or ofc by any invull skill.. when you aim on them to fire it just doesnt do anything (and yes on full cooldown) try to hit just beside them.

if people dont believe me i can make a video if you like.
Does anyone know how to do that? (software..)

Somehow i always get free 10sec retaliation when hit.

I am a warrior and i DONT even have the trait “Spiked Armor”

This also doesnt only triggers on critical hit but just ANY hit between every 30sec it seems.

Somehow this happends when using the trait: “Furious reaction” the trait SHOULD give fury and vigor for 10sec but somehow this doesnt happens and gives retaliation.

Happends ALLOT and issnt from today.

PLS fix this.

MidoriMarch.8067:

I cant believe there are people who are actually saying warriors are balanced..

my warrior has
-24k hp
-2.9k armor
-2.3k power
-44% crit chance
-crazy mobility
-many -condi durations along with condi clears
-some crazy cc’s with variety weapon choices
-8 second condi immune / 4 seconds invincible mode + more if traited
-free 25% movement speed without traveler or speed runes that makes me use more powerful runes without sacrificing any movement speed that are essential for wvw

and all those stats are without any kind of food buffs and all my items are full zerker.

still not op? show me which classess can have those stats + mobility and condi clears invicible and with FULL ZERKER GEAR????

I wouldnt cry about warrior having high hp/tough and attack but with crazy burst mobile too.. really? Warrior doesnt lack of anything they dont need sacrifice anything to have both offensive and defensive stats and they are easy to play as well lol still not op? at least warrior’s mobile should get nerfed

Ok this is WVW but ok:

So what you have 24k health?? these are just food buffs/wvw buffs
3k armor? maby you should remove 100 because its only 3k above 90% health.
And maby (i guess) remove another 200 for having dolyak signet..
so not that great

K you have crazy mobility? so you walk both GS and sword?
That means you dont have great condi clears.. or if you do walk with longbow you have average mobilty..

4 seconds invincible ???? what? does warrrios also have stealth? cool..
btw you can still get condition damage/cc….

+25% speed?? thats only for melee weapons.. so not when swapping back to longbow..

And having GREAT stats doesnt mean the class is OP compared to others

Orpheal.8263:

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/your-vote-decides-the-guildwars2-international-all-stars-teams/

Do I understand this lame system right???

WE, the community of Europe, America and Asia should vote 5 guys, – guys which 99,9% of the whole worlds GW2 community knows absolutely friggin nothing about them based on some small advertising texts from the candidates, why they personally think that they should get voted.

And why should we vote them? Only so, because so they can represent their continents and get rewarded for that with legendaries and an unique armor?
………………

Just vote or dont… does it matters that much?

i just voted on 2 guys that i only know from Ugh ugh (cant tell ofc) casting.. and the other guy i have seen once in pvp and he did good.. so i just voted on them.

Done!! :-) good luck!!

kitten that armor looks cool (and terrible on charr i can tell you that already)

It’s very bad

Omg thats indeed very bad.. kitten you ANET!!

K… i now have done fractals 276 times!!!.. and never NEVER EVER get any weapon skin.. NEVER, not even once!!…..

What is WRONG with that kitten dungeon!!

What about gap openings? (not running away but creating some distance)

I dont get it that warriors may not run away because many classes can do that..
But what about creating a GAP for defensive role???

Like mesmers cant run away but they can still teleport away to create some distance..

Every class have ways to create those gaps.. maby by fear or evade or stealth or teleport or whatever.. i really dont get it why you need to nerf this for warr

FlamingFoxx.1305:

O_o. I don’t understand what the problem is. You get a sun aspect crystal and then stand facing him but not inside his orange AoE ring, then you use the sun dash skill… You don’t have to time it or anything, just dash at him from outside his AoE ring.

This… they also Explained it before you even do the final fight…

Anton.1769:

Does pure PvPers bring money to ANet – NO
Does PvErs that sometimes enter to sPvP with their “cute as a sewer rat” asura bring money – YES

So, you understand

So what does this have to do with TOL2?? most of them are PVP players, not PVE.. so who cares if we say we DO ban asura from TOL2.. do you?

Volarican.2157:

pls take this stupid bird outta pvp…the game should be moving to a high skill cap not lower! AI needs to go

Not only that, but that bird also crits like CRAZY!! 2K on light armor! lol!!

Also its a very sticky pet.. :-P

Arkus.2814:

Belzebu.3912:

I would happily trade my ranger GS range and evasion for the warrior’s GW damage and mobility.

Agree with this guy 100%

If warriors get rangers GS skills they will become much better you know?
1100 leap
Block + knockback
Daze
1 burst attack
normal autoattack + evade..

Looks very good for warriors in pvp!! its like a hammer/GS/shield into 1 weapon for a warrior :-)
Yeah sure you can have the 100b if you like.. its crap anyway besides PVE

……Face Palm you look at the range but not the DPS.

Warrior Auto

• Great sword Swing damage = 259(0.7)?
  * Great sword Slice damage = 259(0.7)?
  * Brutal Strike damage 333(0.9)?

Ranger Auto

• Slash (ranger greatsword skill) damage =203 (0.55)?
  * Slice (ranger greatsword skill) damage = 203(0.55)?
  * Power Stab damage= 240 (0.65)?
  (range is 130 and has a 1sec evade)

(?=power*weapon Strength/Armor)

Don’t use arguments that ranger have better (Blank) you will just get bad response wen you post, make sure you look it up before posting.

and as Guardian have bigger range on there 1-hand sword its because they don’t have added affect like bleed and Cripple that the warrior do have.

Don’t be offended by my post just be forewarn wen talking about some *subjects *

And to answer your thread is all weapons range are mostly balance only very very few need a tweak like staff necro autos or engineer Traited nades range for a small exemple (but its mostly long range weapons)

You facepalm me?

Lol sorry but if you say GS on ranger have more range is because of the damage is just weird.

Sorry but ranger GS maby does less damage, but they also have a EVADE on there chain and there last hit also does more damage just like the last on warr / guard.. so still weird to give them also more range…

And your argument about guard sword and warr sword is also weird.
They have bigger range because they dont have extra bleeding like warr does?? uhm have you seen there damage and damage multiplier?? its like 0.7 on that and i think 0.5 for warr.. so again kinda weird why they need a bigger range. not only compared to warr, but also with there own GS range..

My apology i didn’t know that bleeding did 0 dam a second i guess i see your point on why war lack off damage on sword. Immobilize and cripple also do nothing right? yea war need a range increase too.

maybe the other class could use immobilize on there sword and have a range decrease any thieves out there would agree on this change.

why do you bringup all other skills from warr sword? because ranger sword also have allot of evades you know? so in total i think they both have good skills…
And btw they are both the same range also.. so its not something i even complain about…

still not a good argument, all you do is turning my post into a QQ nerf this buff that post.

All i say is why there are different weapon ranges on same weapons, because besides there skills (wich are often kinda balanced between classes.. some more defensive-evade-blind or whatever… others more damage) i can hardly see any reason why some have more range compared to others.

Anton.1769:

why dagger has same range as GS

because 130 is already very close i guess..

Still weird why some classes have more range on some weapons that doesnt even make much sense compared to not only other classes, but even with there own other weapons.

you can say Ranger needs it more compared to warr and i totally agree with that, but why give some more range on 1 weapon and not on other weapon?

Why not bring it all in line?

Why (yeah warriors are already in a good spot) are warriors called Master of Weapons when they have the lowest range on melee weapons? that just doesnt make sense

Why is it that:

2handed weapons are slower
compared to
1handed weapons?

Because ofc 2handed weapons are bigger but they deal more damage also, so in the end its balanced between 2handed and 1handed (kinda..)

Why is it that:

2handed weapons have a 130 range
compared to
1handed weapons have only, oeps nope also 130 range..

Kinda weird issnt it?

No?

Because melee should be melee right? ok cool..

Why is it than that a ranger does have 150 range on his GS and other classes dont?
Not that i say rangers neef a nerf or anything.. but still kinda weird that a ranger does have 150 range and a master of weapons (warrior) and also guardian only 130.

Ow and btw there are more of these…

Like a guardian does have 150 range on sword….
Also kinda weird if you think about it, there main hand sword is bigger compared to there Greatsword…?? (and ofc master of weapons class have only 130)

Well if your gear is broken in PVE and go into PVP you also have broken gear over there and you do have less armor…

ewwwww.

at least armor repair is free.

but do we have an armor repair npc in the mists?

Not that i know…

Cool!! didnt know it hits that hard! tonight i am going to use this rune also ghehe..!

Well if your gear is broken in PVE and go into PVP you also have broken gear over there and you do have less armor…

You go on 4 Week long Holidays without access to a PC or Laptop?

Yes… just been to America for 4 weeks.. ofc i dont play a game when exploring the real world :-)

But i was thinking you only get it when it hits live that day.. but you get the story for free on its complete duration.

So if i am on holiday or whatever, i have to pay for a story that i missed?

Episodes of the Living World are permanently unlocked when players log in when an episode is the current live release. If players happen to miss this free period for an episode, it can be unlocked later for a small gem fee via the Story Journal section of the Hero panel.

Warrior:
•high HP pool,heavy armor and high melee single target and AoE DPS, good crowd control, good mobility, frequent stun breakers
• Relies on landing its burst attacks to remove conditions.
Spending burst attacks cost adrenaline wich you first need to build and spending it will also cost you hps and/or other stat bonus like +crit/damage traits.
No defensive boons or any way to deal with boons on others
only 1 blind
only 1 combo field
no stealth/teleport/clones/pets or any other fancy stuff.

And yet no one sees this ^, and still think we are GODS? we have so many weaknesses, you just need to find them like on every other class.

These aren’t weaknesses, really. More like, things that warrior isn’t great at. Other classes have all these things to deal with as well. But calling such things weaknesses is overstating them, IMO.

So you say light armor is a weakness for those classes?
Because having light armor means you get more defensive boons like protections.. and some can have almost perma protections.. that gives more damage reduction compared to a heavy warrior.

So having a weakness doesnt mean its a a weakness for that class. because they are designed around it….

Warrior is designed around heavy armor AND high health pool..

But now they all thinking because warrior have both heavy armor and health and mobility etc that they have zero weakness.. lol..
THey are designed around it.

Maby you should include weakness like no pets / clones / teleport / stealth etc etc..

Because classes that DOES have a weakness like zero health and zero armor DOES have these options of skills.. to balance there weakness.

Scarlet

Next!!

They can be annoying yeah :-P

i always try to place my burst attacks between there spamming skills, if it works i win, if not they win..

But often its like this:

Evade
Evade
miss
blinded
miss
Evade
hit with #1 because getting blinded
Evade
blinded
miss
YES i did hit him!! he’s now 65% health
POEF gone into stealth

And repeat

Soon or later i get everything on cooldown and its over..

Tip when they like stealth play:
Just keep smashing #1 all day long and run around and always keep doing circles so your back is always turned around..

if you keep doing this it often does work :-P
but kitten boring

Warrior:
•high HP pool,heavy armor and high melee single target and AoE DPS, good crowd control, good mobility, frequent stun breakers

No defensive boons or any way to deal with boons on others
only 1 blind
only 1 combo field
no stealth/teleport/clones/pets or any other fancy stuff.

and more 1111 bleeding stacking boring class..

they stack way to much bleeding in the short time because of the massive spamming #1 shortbow, all they do is spamming all day long 1111111111111111 and it works also!

another annoying class.

This games gets more and more boring and lame passive classes and i cant see any fun in that.

Only if you can beat them very fast and run away.. Else you need CI

Pyriall.5027:

The counter to elixir and mist stomping is stealth. Hello and welcome to the game.

… only 2 classes can stealth others. Not sure if thats a solid counter

Shortbow condi spec does seems to be good in duels. I can say i have a hard time against those rangers.. So not sure if rangers are that bad

EverythingEnds.4261:

Mist Form, Elixir S and Distortion have very long CDs, so you actually sacrifice a very good Oh kitten button to get a stomp.

This has nothing to do with cheating or “cheap tricks”.

Warr stances are long cooldown also.. And you need to blow more to get the same.. And even then its still possible to remove stability boon

Anton.1769:

all another classes can use stability for stomping. And you forgot mesmer’s F4 skill and portal-stomping trick , so you add mesmer to your list of OP cheater professions!!!
P.S. War can use stability+endure pain – another cheater! Now I will ask all people at sPvP match don’t use stability because I can not interrupt them and it’s mean they are unfair people

Boons can be ripped.. there is nothing you can do vs mist form
