Guild Wars 2

2v2 and 3v3 deathmatch should be best of 3 rounds, if you die youre dead, not a respawn fest.

Depends what type of hambow warrior, the trick is to keep them under pressure always because that passive heal will tick for a good amount if they have you CCed for a long time, don’t let them play with time, time dodge their main attacks and use stability wisely.

Second feature pack and this map will still exists, what a huge disappointment, if they are not going to give us anything for pvp content wise at least take off this stupid map, anet loves this map so much it even queues up often compared to the other maps.

Guys lets keep waiting maybe anet might surprise us, in the meanwhile we can play some skyhammer together.

Awesome sucks I missed it, nice to hear these types of tournaments are taking place.

Anyways, here’s to the future:

(1) Don’t hype the community we won’t believe you next time.

Solo queue would work better with a 2v2 compared to the currently conquest mode 5v5, you would just need one more person and that’s all, matchmaking would also be thousand times better and even 3v3 to some extent. Solo queue doesn’t simply cut it with our current conquest mode too many problems specially when there is a leader board attached to it.

When it’s ready.

Anyone who complains about the stunlock here never played wow arena. 8 sec fear, followed by 4 sec fear, followed by poly, followed by cyclone, followed by fear, and on and on. literally 10 mins of CC can be spammed waiting for heal debuff to hit.

Ill take hurr durr war hammer spam over that

So true lol people here have it easy compare to wow, even rogues are so annoying.

did you know that dota2 just got an “infinite amount” of game modes? players can create their own game modes now with a mod kit. wish we could get this for gw2 aswell…. all the possibilities… GvG, HA, cptf, everything you could wish for…

I agree since anet doesn’t care about pvp, they should at least give players the tools to create their own maps, game modes etc like in other games, custom arenas would make a lot more sense that way.

Don’t take solo queue as a serious mode but as a way to improve your skills then that might change on how you perceive it. Until they fix the 4v5, the matchmaking, have a visible mmr and an in-game ladder not that cheap out of game leaderboard kitten sakes common lol once we get those maybe in 3 years then yes you can see it as a competitive mode and no one will protest because they will actually care about the rank.

Remember, ArenaNet is a business. How much revenue does PvP generate compared to PvE?

You spend your development budget on things that will bring in money.

And if you only PvP, and you quit the game, what have they lost? You just freed up some server capacity.

So I am glad for whatever PvP development they still do.

I wish they would add a subscription for PvP and use that money to take it to the next level. Because there is no other MMO that has this good of a combat system, even now.

Like if gw2 had great pve no offense but even the pve is lacking content, with a dumbed down system inferior to the holy trinity ending up with a fail pve berserker meta as how currently it is. Their LS doesn’t simply cut it. I know guys who bought this game only for the pvp but they all left after no content was being added. gw2 has better potential as a focused pvp game than a pve one, the potential is there but sadly it is simply in the wrong hands yep ncsoft.

It seems like it. This was the “Competitive Week.” The next couple weeks will focus “on improving the Guild Wars 2 experience for new and veteran players alike” and “rethinking the way you collect and trade items.”

Really pathetic all around.

I’m hoping the future devs for other mmos are constantly reading this post on how not to make a game.

Yep that is it at least for pvp. the next 2 kitten weeks they will focus on their beloved pve side. Another feature patch with nothing to spvp and guess what hope I’m wrong.

GS/LB is fine for solo queue, solo q is not even taken too seriously now on days specially with how many bad players are queuing up, a broken matchmaking etc. Good thing GS is getting buffed thou.

the problem is not the condition itself, the problem is that every class can do condition damage making your screen fill with conditions.

I wouldn’t take leaderboards too seriously, we can’t even see the actual mmr.

You just have to look at their past history. Right after launch players demanded a pvp blog post and it took them almost 6 months to release it this was just the start of things to come. This feature pack better include a new game mode or expect a lot of raging from players I don’t want to imagine what will happen. Why so many conquest maps? Why not make 2 big ones instead, something similar to AB from wow then continue development on a new game mode but no they are wasting resources and time on new maps of the same game mode . Already one map fallen to garbage due to fail water combat and now skyhammer.

Rather see Raid on the Capricorn getting fixed instead of that kitten kittenhammer.

we still have more announcements coming so cross your fingers but I wouldn’t put my hopes up thou. A new in-game ladder with attached rewards to it and a new game mode is all I’m asking.

well as standard models will make us all look like rank1 noobs anyway it doesn’t really matter
RIP my 3000g greatsaw skin. hello ugly basic greatsword…

standard models ftl.
option to make asuras 30% larger ftw.

It doesn’t change your character model, only your enemies. L2R.

that is what i was implying…L2RBTL
to your enemies you will look like a rank 1 rabbit no matter if your char was already human or how much time/gold/real world money you’ve spent on your appearance.

asuras are the issue
they should just make asuras larger in pvp, it doesn’t even need to be by much.

To be honest when I’m pvping I never care how the enemy looks like or what nice weapon he is equipping, it is a psychological thing. If you just play to see what nice skin your enemy is wearing then I don’t know how you pvp. The only folks who should see and care how you look like are your friends or teammates.

Problem is anyone can queue up for Solo Q and is mostly keyboard turner pve players I never seen such bad players in a supposedly competitive game mode and I don’t even want to talk about skyhammer. Hotjoin and soloqueue pretty much became one. If you want good pvp do Team Q.

After returning into the game and playing solo queue this map just ruins it for me. I will not solo queue any more and will stick to team arenas instead. Also a lot of 4v5 in this map people just hate the map so much and disconnect leaving our team hopeless and others.

Sizzle Hint.1820:

this game needs an expansion really really bad

this LS just doesnt do it…

I agree, months of waiting for season 2 to start, in the mean while getting repeated living story content, was truly expecting anet working on to something big for season 2, the wait was going to be all worth, but I was wrong, we are getting all these bits of pieces again, I just don’t like this model. An expansion is needed really badly, unless anet surprises us within next months, but I just don’t want to feel hyped.

That map hurts new players who are willing to learn how to pvp in a competitive manner.

Love the idea.
This game has no dedicated healers so a 3 round TDM makes a lot of sense.

Finally got her head,

Maxdeepsgaming from youtube his build really helped me a lot
The greatsword just makes a lot of things easier for me that leap can really save you a lot of times from death.
Full zerker gear
patience and more patience you will beat her, if you go into desperation mode just take a small break have some tea or coffee analyse your errors, have a new plan then come back or it will make things worse at least it was for me.

1 .2v2 and 3v3 deathmatch type of arenas
