Guild Wars 2

Dont matter if is overpower or not, is ridiculous. In WvW you can see a lot of times 5 or 6 players hitting at air or spamming aoe for x min (x is the time players get bored and move away or thief decide to leave) with a thief who only appears for 1 second, hit a backstab and go stealth again, and if you are melee, you even cant to get them because their ridiculous mobility. Yes, a lot of ridiculous words, because is that… a ridiculous situation.

You only can move on, the thief is who decide when the combat is over, you never gonna kill a good thief, only make him run away. If for you (arenanet) fair this?

I am not crying because i get killed by thief, i play very tanky, i just ignore them most of times, but that is the point, you must ignore them… the problem is you cant fight them, you can just ignore, make them run or if you have low armor build just die.

A mesmer have invisibility too but is far easy to get than thief. You can chase them, you can kill them, is hard, but no like a thief. As i said, the thief can fight alone in a 5 o 6 group of enemies because steatlh spamming D/P almost without risk.

I know the thief is balanced to work with the actual stealth mechanic, but at least put a debuff of 5 second or more until you can back to stealth again, this way you must decide wisely when stealth and when not, and not just spamming it. A better solution is that there is a % possibility to see stealth players (more % is you are close or facing them)

d/d backstab thieves can’t do much vs armored targets(guardian, warrior, bunker ele, eng)

Lol, i am a guardian with 3400 armor and 19k health with defensive traits and they back stab me for 5/6k damage when i am without defensive boons (and they can spam it).

This game has no resilience vs critical damage (this game has no resilience at all), and you can raise the critical damage what scale WAY better than defensive stats like toughness. Critical damage is too kitten powerful in this game.

Obviously if vs ligth armor they can output a 12k critic, sure they do less damage vs high armor if only hit by 5/6k. But 1/4 health in 1 spameable hit is really high anyway.

Acotje.5689 i like your build.

I need a build for small groups. I trade weapons according what i need (GW/H – GS/Sw-Focus mostly, sometimes scepter/shields)

Now i am roaming with full clerics, 16k heal, 3400 armor, 2800 attack, but almost no critical chance but with a lot of healing power. I have a great regeneration and survivability, but i feel lack of damage. I know i am almost no attack damage but even with others builds with 3200 attack i feel the same.

I feel the mostly damage output dont come from power/attack in this game, its come from critical damage, there is no direct defense vs critical, no critical chance reduction or direct critical damage reduction like WoW. Only % armor, but i feel critical damage scale way better than armor.

I am pretty new, surely i am wrong about this, i havent items yet to test this, but is what i see with my guardian with 3400 armor. Critical hit too hard, and they are constantly spamming it, your defensive buff go in CD and you have lack of mobility to go out of combat for get the CD back. And your damage output is too low to fight back and force them to stop attacking.

I depend on my teammates to kill, i am only find a place as support, i want to be more tanky/dps, well balance between damage and tanky but i dont know how to build that.

Thanks for all the advices.

I haven’t monk runes. I think when i have it i will run 2 water 2 monk and maybe 2 dwayna. Or 3 monk and 3 water. I use fighter runes temporally.

I am pretty new in this game. I get 80 about 3 weeks ago, i get 2 set full exotic, soldier and cleric.

My gear is a mess, but i mix them to get that stats. And i use some gems for my another build (shared items). This is without food or buff. With hammer equipped i get some more heal and power but my healing power get low. And in combat i get 150 more toughness from traits.

How can i improve or i need another new build?

Green X is for normal Jump, Red X is for JUMP power, and Blue X is for electricity JUMP.

(First screenshoot is in the bottom)

I ll reach the highest position in screen (without fail) with 3 winds and 5 electricity. I see path above from there… maybe is something in the top… idk.

For the screens i reach that position with some fails and miss the last jump… I ll try tomorrow.
