best move anet made for quite some time. pvp should have been f2p from the beginning. get real guys.
your salt is my sugar.
thanks for the answers!
i only need to provide those 3 finishers, since my team will do the rest. flamethrower would crew up my damage too much (since i also need grenades for vuln and elixir something for reflect).
since the laurels now come from the dailies and f2p players don’t get those should i assume that f2p-players won’t be able to get any laurels?
how are they supposed to get ascended amulets? rings you can get in fractals and accessories through guild missions but afaik there’s no way to get certain amulets other than from the laurel merchant.
i just saw on reddit that the dailies will be restricted to HoT accounts. what about any person that has bought gw2 properly (years ago) and doesn’t upgrade? won’t they be able to receive the dailies? that would be a major kittenmove.
is there any way to time bob and the os with the fire bomb field so i get all 3 finishers in? whatever i do i only seem to be able to get two.
Since those minis have no timer can i assume that they are not temporary and will be available in the future? or if they are temporary, how long will they stay in the gemstore?
i just wanted to mention this. as expected they didn’t and now every ele (me included) is running burning stack condi burst. and everything melts except for other eles and medguards. hilarious.
yes. this is intended and those 3 are the only armor pieces that have any influence over your armor value. this doesn’t have anything to do with pve/pvp as it only matters if you have ANY piece of armor in that slot.
Worked very well in GW1.
which is why they trashed it in gw1 recently.
the only dungeon i do is the aetherblade path and i would still do it if they removed all loot/rewards from it altogether.
Congrats fellow engineers. ^^
congrats? srsly? anet finally did what they should have done long ago.
instead of “congrats” you should rather post “sorry for the last two years we let you down, we decided to finally do our job.”
that said i okittennow you’re not personally responsible for those decisions. someone is, though.

who the kitten cares? a game has no obligation to cater to every single minority.

why would it even bother you enough to make a thread about? grow some balls. just flame back or block them. they’re sour because they lost to engineer supremacy. rub it in, it’s fun.
so you lost with/because of a kittenty build. congrats. what i don’t get is how is a hotjoin-quality match worth being turned into a video?
4 turret engineers are easily countered by one single staff ele.
or a powernade engineer. or a hambow. or staff necro. or shatter mes. or basically anything with any kind of aoe dmg.
i haven’t played for a while but the meta must really have become stale if people still cry over turret engis.
l2p, scrubs.

How to save gold: don’t spend it.
^this
then you just do stuff and it piles up.
zaced only noob players tell others to L2P and then give zero advice on how to improve or even learn the class. players like you are just a waste of server space.
there are many sources that show ridiculously detailed how what is done. instead of retyping it in textform i simply refer to them with means of aggressive persuasion. that’s what l2p means and it’s a lot shorter than your wall of text and i bet the op would have rather watched a video he could have found in mere seconds on youtube instead.
there is also the possibility that the op hit a wall skillwise since the mechanics overburden him. in this case there’s nothing to be done which i implyingly mentioned.
there’s also the possibility that the op is unwilling to bother with learning autodidactively , which has a good chance of being true, since the op decided to open this thread instead of a quick recherche on the internet in which case the minor aggressive undertone would be even appropriate.
maybe maybe it’s legit and he simply doesn’t know how even. then someone else will take care of it.
maybe it’s something completely else.
in most cases l2p with all it’s implications (request to play better, request to use every source findable in order to improve, request to do it possibly by himself and come back with specific questions, request to be willing to analyze the own class and improve upon the collected data) in contrast with it’s absolute negation is appropriate and in place.
i haven’t read it all, too much filler for me. balance of probability.
that’s the problem with faith. you’ll believe and believe and believe (“next time” … “next time” … “next time”) until you’re dead. and then suddenly there won’t be a nice old grandpa opening the door to paradise but only the void of nothingness. i’m just trying to save you all the bitterness of disappointment.
(edited by zaced.7948)
tell me pls what that path is because i can’t make out any similarity.
you picked the class with the most difficult rotations in pve. what others do with one button push you do with 3-4. l2p or drop the class.

can this thread please die already? hobosacks will stay until the end of time because arenanet cannot care about a monetarily insignificant group.
every possible argument has been chewed through already and still nobody gives a kitten. every reason anet made in favor of hobosacks has been taken apart by the community. engineers only matter in pvp where nobody (including the engineer himself) cares how you look. they haven’t fixed half of the broken stuff in this game that’s been here since the beta, why would you think they would care about a handful of engineers whining about what’s on their back?
demanding hobo sack removal is like demanding that a politician won’t sell you to the next best person that gives him a yacht. “lol, wut? yeah, sure, foock off, peasant.”
there will be no fix with hot, no fix with whatever comes next and no fix at any given point in time and space.
if you want shinies play another class. that’s the only solution you will ever get.
nobody that matters really cares about pvp. the community is too small and generates not enough revenue for anyone to care. i mean look at the matchmaking right now, every other company would be ashamed to leave such a system in live longer than a week. betas have better matchmaking. gw2 had better matchmaking before they broke it.
pvp is like the kittened cousin your aunt asks you to take to a party. you give him a drink every now and then, make the fugly fat girl nobody likes give him some attention and leave him standing in the corner so he doesn’t bother anyone. every now and then when people tell you you’re an kitten for letting him rot you declare loudly how much you care in front of a big audience and throw a party “just for him”. after people stopped making a fuss you proceed as usual. in the end it’s not his fault because it was his mother that was on meth during pregnancy but in the end it also doesn’t matter.
i think everybody can see how this analogy fits what has happened to pvp since launch.
we thought we would get a proper pvp game like it’s predecessor but we got a shallow cash grab machine instead. if you’re all honest with yourself you know deep down there that we’re only still here because there is literally no better alternative.
nothing will change, all is vain.

you wouldn’t need multiple tracks. just a container you can choose the stones from at the end.
as much as i would love being able to gather stuff for some neat items through pvp i fear that unranked/ranked would be flooded with farmers. low-mmr-pvp is close to unplayable even now and i don’t want to imagine how it would be if it’s flooded by clueless pve-players that just want to grab the track progress. people already kill low mmr ranked games “because losing gives as much progress as winning in the arenas”.
there are folks who just afk in unranked/ranked half the day while watching netflix for track progress and you can’t even report them for that.
never gonna happen because in pvp hobosacks don’t matter and in pve there’s not enough engineers for anet to care.
just let go of that hope it will only bring you pain.
zerker/ max dps still will be king. whoever thinks otherwise needs 2 l2p. every class has all the possibilities in the world mitigating all srs dmg while staying at full dps. only bad players that can’t handle this might have to switch.

- Which character/profession would you rather be?

edit: too late.
depending on how much i want that skin i would pay any amount possibly reachable. if i want something i will have it. at any cost.
i am against any change to the one glorious dungeon path that actually is really fun. i run it every now and then with my guild and it’s one of the last instances of gw2-pve that you can’t run through completely braindead. i wish there was a lot more content like this in the game.
don’t you dare take that away from me you filthy casuals!
edit: sure, rewards could be a tad better but in the end i don’t really care about that.
(edited by zaced.7948)
In this thread: People taking their played race way too seriously :P
xenophobia is a lifestyle.
i heard you can make great soap out of asura.
this will never happen. this is a prophecy.
We’ll get back at the Charr for what they did.
taking back what was rightfully theirs? all your puny race could do they have already done. if a massive suicide attack is your best than the feline magnificence has nothing to fear.
(edited by zaced.7948)
I ask you this, Are Charrs and humans not friends?
would you befriend a pig or a cow? humans are meat that can talk.
have you ever played pvp?
usually i just block them, flame then and then kick them.
ZERKONLY in PvE!
lol, jk … mix some assassin’s stuff into it.
taunt sounds like a disaster incoming …
it’s not a suggestion. as if anet would even ever consider…
it’s a nice to look at “what could have been” that fades with time as all hope does.
edit: now that i looked at it again i can’t stop looking at it.
(edited by zaced.7948)
moony, what you don’t consider is that you’re an amazingly small minority. the vast majority simply ignores everything they are told and keeps on doing whatever they deem right however destructive it is to their team. in the end it comes down to simple psychology and on average flaming is a more efficient way to hammer some sense into people because negative events trigger a much more memorable reaction in human brains.
if you can’t keep your money together you’re at fault, not the game.
→ pointless “feature”, learn to manage your finances instead of demanding for an external system to do it for you.
unquestionably charr are the superior race in every case. without exceptions. humans are just meat. furless, easy to process meat.
look on the other side of the coin. and Yes people might get very aggressive but i’ve seen people who don’t know what to do yet playing rank. mostly getting their points by merely farming
don’t waste your breath. dem shiny nice people are completely immune to understanding that most people are angry for a very good reason.
btt: if people without any understanding of the mechanics in pvp demand to be tolerated in ranked then i demand for my anger at their presence to be tolerated as well. you can’t have the good without the bad. tze, spoiled kids these days …
before it was normal to say GG and shake hands
gg means “good game”. why would anyone say that if the game was horribly bad?
It is called having manners.
But i guess an expression like that is not valid anymore becaus….. Thuglife ???
no thuglife here. just basic expectations. i have the decency to play unrated until i am confident i know at least the basics of the gameplay. i expect others to have that decency, too. isn’t that also good manners? ideally experienced players would not have to bother with clueless people and therefore the average amount of anger built up would be a lot less. but anet decided it’s a good idea to have complete scrubs be able to ruin the game experience of competitive players in ranked. not only that, they break the matchmaking (which wasn’t that good but many times better before) and throw experienced players into one pot with clueless people, ideally with a team composition that is hopeless from the first second on. every other game has either some sort of requirement to enter ranked games or a league system. oh, and a matchmaking that doesn’t seem to look for the worst matchup possible.
@nocturnus: you should probably read what others have written. you would make the conclusion that what you say has been taken apart a few times already.
also there is a funny little button that looks like a pen. it gives you magical powers to not have to make multiple posts after another.

would you vebally abuse if you were standing infront of someone….????
yes, if it gets me what i want i would use any means to get it. verbally, physically, whatever. as i said before: if i can improve the gameplay of someone even if it’s just a random information sticking because he remembers me abusing him verbally ("omg, this guy flamed me hard because i didn’t rotate like he said …. hmh … rotate like he said … ") that’s better than being nice and have 0 of the information sticking. usually you get completely ignored if you don’t attack someone.
someone that enjoys the “leisure” of a good game has nothing to do in ranked. that is a area you play to win.
the moment anet bans the abusive (because competitive) players they lose their competitive base. then it really will be just 3-4 teams playing against each other in tournaments over and over again.
(edited by zaced.7948)
really depends on how fast you learn. i knew great players that got the knack of it after 50 games and ones that were completely clueless even after 200.
from what i can tell seeing some people around me improve in pvp the moment you start to notice bad players / bad plays (in a sense that you think “you guys should be doing that instead of [insert fail here]”) you’re imo qualified to compete at least on lower rankings. that may sound a bit harsh but the moment i hear somebody being right with complaining about something specific i usually see people improve their gameplay a lot. when you see somebody doing it wrong and know what he/she is doing is wrong you usually know how it’s done right. from there it’s all about improving your rotations and map awareness.
(edited by zaced.7948)
You know why there’s so many noobs around? Because most people quit after 10 matches cause they get sick of the people in pvp.
if i can make noobs quit ranked with verbal abuse that’s a good thing imo. as it is now i’d rather have a 20 min que than to have to watch my 4 kittened teammates lose the game for me.
blablabla white knight in shining armor blabla
if people have no idea how to play they shouldn’t be playing ranked. period.
(edited by zaced.7948)
i prefer a method that leaves someone hurt or angry but delivers at least some of the information intended over a method that is ignored 100%.
some is better than none.
it’s not like i haven’t been friendly and nice and offered advice and information and everything over more than 2 years just to be ignored by pretty much everyone that didn’t know his kitten already (even if 4 people were trying to explain something, there’s always this one dude who knows it better).
if insulting and verbally/psychologically abusing and attacking somebody makes information stick even a tiny bit more then that’s the way to go in my opinion. people don’t matter to me, how they play does.
