There’s nothing worse than using 3 abilities to get rid of 7+ stacks of confusion and taking 6k+ damage.
I think you haven’t quite understood how this dissipation works. Firstly, about confusion being removed last, I don’t think it’s true, I’m actually quite sure it’s not true.
Secondly. If you have 10 stacks of confusion, 1 dissipation removes ALL stacks. It’s 1 condition that’s removed, not 1 stack.
I was referring to how good mesmers and engineers always put tons of conditions on you, and you take a lot of procs of confusion removing it all because confusion is always last to get removed.
There is no removal order. Conditions are always cleansed on a last in, first out basis, meaning that the last condition to be applied to you will be the first to go.
I dont believe that at all, as bleeding is always the first thing I see removed.
We are not planning on adding a new currency to handle Ascended items in WvW.
So we can use badge of honors. Any info when i can buy these items?
ASAP.
So why has it taken so long? Its been months.
I bet something stupid happened and the NPCs are in the game right now and its just that no one has noticed them, and he’s just trolling us til we figure it out.
Can you provide some clear evidence that confusion is always the last condition removed? Because I frankly don’t believe that to be the case.
I also play a Necro
We can go to sPVP right now, guest to jade quarry, I’ll use save yourselves, you convert all my boons (which is all of them) to conditions, and I’ll remove them, and you watch when confusion gets removed. The only things that seem to be after confusion are cripple and chill honestly. But if you google it Im sure you can find an exact list of which conditions get removed in what order.
All this change did is buff bad players who don’t think and just mindlessly spam abilities, they are catering for zergs and casuals by continually dumbing this game down.
They made confusion fair, it’s still the most damaging condition there is even after the 50% nerf (check the thread with math about it)
The only other real option they had would of been to let players prioritize their condition removals the way they choose, which I could see being a major headache, since confusion is at the bottom of the list of things that get removed. There’s nothing worse than using 3 abilities to get rid of 7+ stacks of confusion and taking 6k+ damage.
There’s so many ways to dissipate a condition so it’s really easy to get rid of confusion
Confusion is the last thing any condition removal gets rid of. Its very hard to get rid of it, not easy, especially if you dont have tons of condition removal. My guardian runs 3 shouts, shouts recharge 20% faster, shouts convert a condition to a boon, and shouts remove a condition. So thats 2 2 condition removers on a 25 second timer, and 1 2 remover on a 45 second timer, as well my F2 skill which removes 3 on a 1.5 minute timer, with another move that gives it back on a 1.5 min timer. Not only that, but I have traited to remove a condition every 10 seconds, and my heal also removes a condition every 10 seconds (unless I use it, its a signet) And I CANNOT remove confusion faster than a decent mesmer or engi can apply it. Mainly because all the other conditions they apply get removed first. I’m glad confusion got nerfed into the ground, its was a crap thing to die to, and theres no defense to it. What are you suppose to do? run away from them slowly (guardian runs fkin slow) while waiting for it to wear off repeatedly while they melee you down?
Im glad he at least implied they still want to add ascended gear to WvW, but its been a long time now that PVE players could get it, and WvW players could not. Sooner is better!
I’d love to see the numbers you’re drawing that conclusion from.
I’m predicting anecdotal evidence and/or “lol u must be blind 2 not see it”
http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/03/07/how-guild-wars-2-plans-to-survive
“Aside from managing to shift over 3 million copies in the six months since it launched, Johanson also informs me that Guild Wars 2 has bucked one of the main MMO trends by seeing player numbers continue to rise during what would usually be a post-launch slump.”
Look at that great sor community at work to recruit more quality guilds.
I lol’d at this statement, mainly because WM seems to server hop A LOT. I guess “quality” is all about perception. Once WM leaves BG I’ll be sure to ask if your definition has changed.
Oh boy lookie all le trolling! Chest thumping everywhere!
Your server accomplishing feats =/= player skill.
Hell, half of you probably wouldn’t even 1v1 me. Someone good 1v1 me for god’s sake. I’m getting tired of roflstomping chest thumpers who think they have “skillz”.
I know what you mean! I constantly see people from guilds who chest thump all the time and all they do is run from 1v1s against me. TW, Choo, Riot, etc. They all run. We should have another 20 minute duel neither of us can win so I can remember what its like to fight someone with skill.
Speaking as someone playing on T1 server, pretty much every ZvZ fight involves more than 80 people, and I have 0 problems running through the enemy zerg and tagging them all with my staff for crazy amounts of loot bags and owning them in the face. I also always charge in first (unless Im running slow and everyone is way ahead of me.) Im also pretty much the last one to die if we get wiped. I think this is just a L2 kitten ue with you guys. That or your servers zergs dont crash into each other and fight, they just try to stand back and shoot each other to death, which is terrible and bad. But hey, if thats whats happening on your server, you could completely change the meta and own everyone by getting 10-15 guardians and warriors and just charging them and smashing them. Youd be amazed how fast a team of 30 ranged characters dies to 10-15 tanky melees.
Here’s a video to show what Im talking about, its not me, but it is my server, and it is a guardian. http://youtu.be/jDJ31YLVhM0
The trick to living is running around enemy fields on the ground, and getting behind the front line. Once youre in the middle of them youre pretty safe.
But seriously, the only person who quoted anything so far here is me. I gave a book as reference, and in that book the author analyzed data from the US government about crime rates in different cities and states and compared it to those areas gun control laws. (All of which can be verified via the US government) He then noticed that more gun laws = higher violent crime. But seriously, it’s funny how I’m the only person in the debate showing any evidence to support my claims.
Again, please do some research, real research. I have no benefit of telling you this, I just care about ppl knowing the truth. But it’s on you, so…
Look guy, if you’re going to try and tell people something, you should at least back it up with some kind of evidence supporting your claims… Oh whats that? You cant? Thats to bad, what will be your next super awesome thing to do? Act like you didnt start this debate I bet.
Stop watching Fox News. I’d really get some facts straight. I could go way offtopic here and take an hour to tell you everything I know, but it’s not my responsibility to know your facts, it’s yours.
I’d recommend shows like The Young Turks. Atleast they’re reliable, unlike most of American mainstream media with their so called liberal corespondants. Please. And just because I (currently) don’t live there, doesn’t mean I don’t have any real facts, numbers and statistics.
Go check it out.
PS. Not trying to be an kitten here. Just getting straight to the point. If you do research, see the stats and still disagree, that’s fine by me.
The statistics say more gun control laws = more violent crime.
Theres nothing to argue about here, and theres no opinions. Just cold, hard facts.
This is what you mesmers get for not sticking up for the thieves. Once the nerfs start, they dont stop. I cant wait til everyones favorite class is nerfed to dirt so my thief doesnt look as bad anymore.
Umm reveal debuff is going back to 3s smart guy lol.
Are the skills getting their damage pushed back up too? Are they allowing mug to crit again? Is caltrap cripple duration being extended to what it originally was again? etc, etc, etc, etc…
This is what you mesmers get for not sticking up for the thieves. Once the nerfs start, they dont stop, it’s kinda like government in that way. I can’t wait for everyones favorite class to get nerfed into the ground, just like thief, so my thief becomes good again.
Dont follow rangers into the water, easy fix for your problem. It’s like confusion, it was fine the way it was, you just shouldn’t do anything while you have it on.
A lot of us would prefer to stay in the top two tiers, because we put a lot of time/effort into WvW and it would be nice to go to bed knowing that your territory will at least be fought for. I know everything will flip in most matches at some point, but spending entire afternoons to flip home BL only to lose everything an hour after I/we logged eventually wore thin.
So according to this post we can expect you to leave BG in 3-4 weeks? Because all JQ does is flip everything in their BL and whoever is blue every morning when FOO and Co are on the maps, and youre going to be dealing with that same old routine logging on at NA time and needing to take your stuff back.
And seriously, you cant complain about a lack of competition when your server is coming in third. It’s apparent to everyone that you didn’t like all the competition and you can’t deal with losing, so you all bandwagoned somewhere else. Why not just admit it? You moved to KN cause you thought youd get to T1 and thats where you wanted to play, when they couldnt hack it you left for a T1 server. Quit with the excuses.
This is what you mesmers get for not sticking up for the thieves. Once the nerfs start, they dont stop. I cant wait til everyones favorite class is nerfed to dirt so my thief doesnt look as bad anymore.
I hope the retaliation nerf isnt to bad, or grd gets some better damage modifiers, because I cant kill kitten as it is… nerfing retaliation is just going to make it worse.
It means you got more bandwagon guilds that will bounce soon, like agg and foe and whoever else. Did merc leave yet? I heard they were going to, is WM coming to BG making them give you a second chance?
Its cool guys, theyre moving to blackgate, which is the T1 server that is currently dieing. Theyll stay there for 2 weeks, realize they arent winning, and then go down to a t7 or t8 server to dominate again and feel like champions.
