Massive freaking /salute to Os on EB right now. Fun kitten fights, let’s keep this going tonight <3

Thanks! It was great indeed!

Setun.4368:

Come out and play NSP! We’ve had this tower of yours for over an hour now in hopes of getting some good fights! =P

Good luck having any NSPer at 4 am. i really wonder if anyone answered your call :P

It’s funny that peoples are talking about nerf when we just got out of the bottom and starting to be viable in some area. Ok sigil of paral might be strong but IMO the issue is more with HB. If you use it with other weapons it’s a lot more balanced. Healing signet is really great and get the job done without being OP. It might look incredible as of right now but it has an horrible scaling… IMO It just show that the other heals need some tweaks… As of right now warr need more buff/tweaks to be on equal ground with the balanced class. (You know right under necromancers.)

I use balance stance, Dolyak signet and rampage for spiking for the sole reason I just don’t get enough of that 8 bit explosion…

Best way to get them is in WvW. Last friday I got 150 of them in about 4-5 hours.(Maybe more I didn’t really paid attention…) As a WvWer my issue are with the draconite. I have been doing the temple zerg run on my server last week and made about 200 ish. I will be done with components after the next temple zerg.

More necros complaining that they can’t beat something that was built to counter them?

This. I hate people who cry because their condi spam build doesn’t kill EVERY build in the game.

you guys cried a lot more in necro forums and necro got nerfed to hell. now it’s time for warrior to be nerfed. want it or not.

WoW… if the current state of the necro is a hell nerfed one the previous iteration must have been godlike.

How about F1 working properly down hill/up hill :P

But no people want buffs to #4 :P

Yeah this X1000. The dev said in the twitch channel warr video that the wanted to make the hammer a bit more fluid. (ex:Stagering blow(4) while you can move a little or being slowed.)

around 20:35

Yeah I feel your pain. My warrior use all weapons. I’m almost done with Bolt ( I need few t6 craft mat and 21% world explo.) With hammer covered with crafting I can be more patient with the rest and craft the other it as the material come.

Yeah I’m gonna have a ascended Genesis pretty soon. The ascended skin are kinda meh except maybe the shield.

ALl i need is maybe 100 dragonite and a bit more than 200 shard and I’m done.

SBI are gonna move up in upper league in the wvw tournament. Hope you guys will enjoy fighting Blackgate and CO. :P

Yeah, At least they wont be down here in league 2. lol

If you guys keep doing good you might get there also.

SBI are gonna move up in upper league in the wvw tournament. Hope you guys will enjoy fighting Blackgate and CO. :P

NSP also suffered at some point. We lost many good WvWer after kaineg stomped us and were pushed to the brink of falling into tier 8 prior the current match up system by GoM and DR.

Fun fight in EB tonight.

<3 ET

Remind me of the bard epic in EQ. It’s a nice improvement.

It’s kinda sad to see one of our old time rival having such a hard time. I sincerely hope you guys can get through all that.

I really like this match up a lot more. It’s really fun to fight and as someone wrote before me you can find really good players pretty much everywhere.

I think it’s fake… The animation look more like a bug.

100 warriors doing 100 blades… 10 000 blades?

Seriously it look like something from Naruto.

Bolt ._.
Lightning effect are nice…but the sword itself is so ugly that many mesmers (like me XD) get a GS instead.

Considering how many awesome sword skins there are in the game its a pity :/

I do agree that it could almost be used as a mace skin instead but i do like the textures and the lightning steps a lot. It may be one of the legendaries geting updated soon.

Cool looking sword+Lightning… It’s not that hard to do… How can you do it wrong!?!

In the developer twitch stream they say they are planning to make the hammer animation on some attack a bit more fluid and banners will get some love.

5% condi and 5% boon duration would be great. Then it would become all stats. I wouldn’t mind a bit less.

It work also with the guns in the spire guild mission.

Rampage/Rocket Jump combo FTW

I like the new color

That change is bad I really started to like that ability. The cooldown was long but with time I managed to learn to include it in my skill rotation and incorporate it into the flow of battle.

Now it lost one of it big appeal. I still don’t understand why enginer had it on a smaller cooldown… Their also work underwater.

I think it now cover 1/3 of what it used to. I might be wrong.

I used rampage pretty much because of the distance. I love the crazy mobility it offered and you felt like the hulk for a quick amount of time. I tried the new version now and it pretty much lost the appeal for me. I was able to live with the long cooldown because of the mobility but now I will get back to signet/banner like 90% of the warrior. Great job at encouraging diversity…

I agree keep in mind what I posted was in last may before our buff and some people were trying to find a way to make the condi build work. Heck, offhand sword just had the change prior that. Now it look fine.

Most of the old condi warriors (pre buff) have asked that. I remember posting in a thread about giving the old final thrust poison as a buff quite some time ago.

here is the old thread.

I like the show quite a lot!!! Great job to those working on it!

NSP had it also VS ET/SF at the end of November. I could probably find the screenshot somewhere.

Runamok.9638:

[Os] you guys really brought the numbers and steamrolled. I haven’t seen a large organized guild force anywhere near that size down here in quite some time. Heck you don’t see 40+ guild forces running most nights in T1 outside of reset. Impressive force. You scored a few bags from me last night.

Last 2 nights in WvW were really fun for us. I think we really appreciated finding some folks to play with. When you can manage to find 2 decent groups willing to fight on open fields whatever you win/lose I think it’s great for everyone. We had some pretty epic fight in ET hill yesterday thanks everyone that was there. We had also a pretty cool stare down at HoD cliff side tonight.

Your walls mean nothing to me.
Pic 1, useless AC
Pic 2, very useful AC (same ac<.<;)

1337AC hax:3

LOL I was wondering why I was seeing only 1 picture and was looking for the second one.

That explain why BP as more people than usual lately. I was wondering why.

I liked it. I like the part where your tried to spike the thief. I played a condi build for about 3-4 months and here some tips I found while playing it, these might be useful to you or not.

I had hard time 1v1 until I started using Sigil of doom on my melee weapon set. It’s really great and added a new type of condition.

I used 2 runes of Lyssa/mad king that gave me 20% duration and I used a giver’s bow and sword/shield to give me another 10%/20%. I liked more all condi durations than + bleed duration because it affected all my conditions. (Blind, burning, bleed, poison, cripple)

I can’t remember if I went 10 point in str for the 10% condi duration or I used 2 sigils that gave me 10% all boon or 20% might duration or simply went for bleeding(15%) or major lyssa sigils(7%)…

WvW get almost no reward.

Good point I like it

I agree and came to the same conclusion as you. Your build as some good stuff I really like in it and changing stuff around would force you to sacrifice a lot. I might try it this week end.

With the weapons set up you currently use in your build there is probably some better trait you could use instead of unsuspecting foe… The 50% increase bleed duration will probably be better. Or you just made a error while playing with your builds that happen to me all the time…

Why not using leg specialist and opportunist together instead of blademaster? Pin down, flurry, leap all become source for fury. You can pretty much gain perma 20% crits on all your attacks…

Looking at your build you would probably have to change some stuff around but those ability/trait synergies pretty well together… I don’t say it would be better I’m just trowing some other options

Good post Vanthian and Scoobaniec. I would love to have a extra for great justice, frenzy or anything in my tool bar but I can’t because I must have a stability or something to survive extreme damage spike when dodge roll isn’t available…

Someone was using the rank 5 ability on the catapult and it looked pretty fast. I was trying to know who was on it and what was the timer. I would probably say 2-3 cats very close could do a pretty decent bubble rotation.

I would still like to know the timer on that ability.

I played about 4 months in rabid or PVT and 2 weeks with zerker I would definitely go with zerker. That being said and I will admit I don’t use zerker accessory mostly because I don’t want to get under 3.2k armor. On a warrior condi gear is not really worth it, I really wanted condi to work and I could see the potential but it was too much work for what it gave back. I still have my rabid set in my bags because you never know if they will buff it someday.

I’ts kinda sad that a whole branch of the offensive part of the game can be eliminated so easily. I’m still waiting on my -30% reduction on incoming physical damage food.

Only class that is harder to beat with zerker gear vs rabid is the thief. In rabid they become pretty much trivial. You have more toughness and pin down is pretty much the death of them. (root and 16k++ dam in bleed if i recall correctly)

Shoulder pad size is linked with one of the shape feature when you created your character. My Charr was the tallest/skinny and my tier 3 cultural shoulder always looked small in comparison of others. I did liked it.

Great video. I watched it when when you posted it in the NSP thread and I watched it again.

I don’t think you love them for the same reasons as the others.

I think if they are looking for a way to improve warrior survivability without changing is offensive nature lifesteal/life on hit could be a solution. The -5 sec on all heal cool down they wanted to do a few patch ago would have be nice. Anet don’t seem to want to give us boons and if they want to push on the punishing nature of destruction of empowerment they could give use life steal per boon on target.

I’m just pitching some ideas.

Logi.5612:

Hey guys, finished up a solo WvW Warrior PoV video. It has some clips of older matchups in it, but also some of the current matchup.

Some popular guild tags such as [PHZE] and [Bags] are in this video!

Hope you’ll watch and perhaps enjoy it

Really nice video. Your first build is pretty interesting and just like me the skullcrusher build gave you the chance to finally match Braham mace/shield together. I love that weapon set

there is some nice music in there also.

I was playing this exact build in WvW for months before they added burst mastery(minus zerker gear). I even tried it in PvP with average success. Your are right about furious being much better than Burst mastery if you use a bow and I never though about using berserker gear with it. I does add quite some punch that was lacking when I was playing it. I tried it back in WvW yesterday and it literally a blast…

I duoed with a GS guardian and it was quite a nice combo. We lacked practice but I could definitely see the potential.

After legend it becomes bronze up to bronze legend. Then you have silver etc…

He made a rocket jump! No but in all seriousness I don’t know that guild and I have been playing on NSP since launch. Also I rarely go in EB that might be why.

To the HoD in NSP Hill last night… I will not accuse anyone right now because my screenshot are not good enough but I suspect zoom hacker. I will be actively looking for you.
