this is not supposed to be for pvp take the OP into consideration keep your pvp fetish out of his thread and i have both classes at 80 and use them both for PVE switching between the two depending on class composition. and honestly MUCH much easier on Necro and I can carry parties that mess up with more reliability on necro

well, i keep my pvp fetish to myself then and tell you, that in pve you don’t need stability and necro still has none. necro is most definitely easier to play than the max dps eles, that’s true.

i can wholeheartedly agree to both of your points!

except for one thing: gw1 pvp was nice, yes and overall a pretty neat pvp experience, but it was not that glorious and problem-free as everybody remembers it. it had major balance flaws as well, a new fotm terror after every balance patch, ... horrible memories!

When is going far a good idea?

in PvP

Posted by: tanztante.6532

tanztante.6532

yep. depends on your team comp and enemy team comp. sometimes you can deny the far cap for so long, that it forces your enemy team to move at least one other player to far, producing an outnumbered fight in mid, which, supported by your close holder (provided they don’t harass close themselves) should come to a quick end. with 3 people on respawn, 2 further members (high dps professions, thief+mesmer pain train for example) of your team can push far, provided your harasser still has the decap and decide the fight for your team. you’ve now forced the enemy team into snowballing in 3v5 and 2v5 situations. gg

of course, this only applies to perfect plays. never do risky kitten like this in yoloQ or with a team you are not 100% in sync with

don’t worry, it’s not only happening for thieves. actually, the earthshaker is broken, hitting quite a few ticks earlier than the actual animation. we tested it on many different occasions on many different servers.

same goes for ele’s burning speed. hits too early most of the times, at other times, the burst doesn’t seem to do anything at all.

This game is not e-sport worthy, this game is a joke.

A joke with best combat system ever created, a totally wasted potential due to terrible devs decisions.

Ele vs Necro

Posted by: tanztante.6532

tanztante.6532

i’m gonna have to break this down

better access to stability? mist form, armor of earth x2, earth attunement switch if traited, arcane shield + tornado are pretty much the most useful stability utilities in the game. the only profession that comes with more stabi is the warrior.

guard has more than anything other than warrior and traited for 2s of stability when parties demand zerker cute.

i really really don’t understand this sentence. it makes absolutely no sense. but let’s investigate:
guardian:
skills
Shelter 1 1/4 sec
“Stand Your Ground!” 5 sec
renewed focus 2 sec
traits:
indomitable courage 3s
total: 11 1/4 sec. whoop dee kittening doo…

i will not take hallowed ground into consideration, since you said it’s for running purposes only

warrior:
balanced stance 8sec
dolyak signet 8sec
and more if you count rampage and some traits, but that alone makes for 16 secs of stability.

arcane shield is a block not a stability kittens in 0.1 seconds is enough to get you knocked down in pve thats a thing and it happens.

arcane shield is also a stunbreaker and it eats 3 hits, what else do you want? you don’t even get infight if hit.

tornado would be nice except right stability is wanted for running portions and you dont want to actually hit enemies because it slows you down can you NOT hit enemies with tornado?

if enemies hit you, you will slow down, no matter if you have stability or not. if you want to run at ooc (130%) speed, don’t get hit.

armor or earth alright ill give you that but x2? think again gaining stability doesnt stand you back up if your already down so even if you took that trait which again zerker zerker zerker if your under half health your gonna be dead before the knockdown is over.

armor of earth is a stunbreaker. earths embrace (earth III) grants armor of earth, ergo stunbreaker. get your facts straight.

so really yah mistform and one armor of earth if you give up not one but two of your utility for it. your parties must love you so much

my party actually loves me for being able to stay infight for a very very very very very long time due to blink, long range and high mobility in general. and they love me even more if they miscalculate and i can still get out of a §$%$%/&%/ HAMMER STUNS charge or can hold my ground against decap engis and freaking hambows.

by now, i’m guessing you never ever played ele or necro to more than level 30.

the best indication is probably, that y’all have to open balance threads in the wrong subforum. not only the wrong subforum, but in EVERY subforum.

and just fyi, running 2 elementalists is a huge huge risk for these teams. an ele is so much quicker to focus down than a guard and doesn’t bring the same amount of support. but better ask those teams for themselves, why they run dual ele setups

thx a lot man, so now i know it’s not my account.

kidding aside, alright, i’ll look if i spot anything. although i don’t understand one thing about the matchmaking: how can people with 30/30 rating on my friendslist get on top 300, while i never seem to make any progress?

oh and yes, i tried to understand the system, i actually did get the math behind it, i just don’t understand, where the extreme amount of outliers is coming from, especially around the lower numbers. this is a regular thing that’s happening here, so the system from 10-50 games played is somehow flawed.

at the moment, i would say, traveler is a good alternative to strength for pvp, because of boon duration and speed increase. it pretty much suits the "i go where i am needed, but i am needed everywhere" playstyle of the d/d elementalist. pack is not really doing it for me and rage,... the crit chance is still too low on a d/d to get something out of the increased ferocity.
