Lots of people making up excuses for their own failure / kittenty play.
I got unlucky during my placement games. Had 2 games with DCs and 1 with a player ragequiting after he lost his 1v1 on home. So out of the first 10 games i had 1 legit loss and 3 4v5s. Result: 6-4So i got placed at a lower rating than where i think i belong. Won 90% of my games since and moving my way up the ladder. At platinum now.
Im not the best player in the world + rusty as kitten due to a long GW2 break.
So why does your logic doesnt apply to me?
To make it even worse. Im doing the same on my alt account now while playing zerker amu pre hot necro. Im pushing my way up from the bottom. Started at bronze, at gold now and will easily reach plat or higher.
Ppl really underestimate the impact they can have on games. Stop bullkittenting yourself and focus on improving instead of blaming factors that are out of your control.
Some people cant accept the fact that they belong in lower divions that’s it. Matchmaking works fine, class balance is garbage though.
Again, you post the exact same comments in every single thread. You’re like a broken record. I would explain to you why matchmaking is broken, but you wouldn’t believe it because you clearly haven’t been screwed over by the “matchmaking”

if you have 50% win rate you belong where you are. People cannot accept the fact that they cant farm legendary anymore like previous seasons. Someone has to occupy the lower divions aswell, everyone is not a legend. I will probably not reach it either and Im ok with that.
You post this on almost every pvp forum post even when it has nothing to do with the actual post. some of us don’t have a 50/50 win rate. some of us have have more of a 80/20 lose/win rate. quit being a whiteknight for the devs your biased opinion helps no one

The ranking clearly does not matter this season because is was so badly done. My brother who is PvE scrub that struggles to even 1v1 against veteran mobs somehow got lucky enough to place gold. While I, someone who plays pvp every day and knows what he’s doing, gets stuck in bronze. Despite what people shout this system is based solely on luck. you have to get lucky enough to get teammates who will communicate and know what they’re doing. no matter how good you think you are, you can not carry 4 terrible teammates when fighting 5 decent enemies. Especially when said teammates do not communicate or pay attention. A team game should not be based solely on luck.

The only people who don’t realize that this new pvp system is incredibly flawed are the ones who haven’t been screwed over by this new system. (And, no, I’m not saying this because i am bad at the game, and no, i do not need to “git gud” the new system needs to “git gud”).
I’ve talked with players who don’t know left from right end up in gold or plat due to getting lucky on their first 10 rating matches, and i know people who end up in bottom tier bronze when they should be much higher due to getting unlucky in the first 10 rating matches. People need to quit saying the this new system is great just because they didn’t get screwed over by it. (Oh but I’m sure nobody is going to listen to me because I’m actually being honest about the system and pointing out that it’s flawed!)
Here’s the thing; if someone who PvPs on a daily bases and knows the ins and outs of every map, knows the rotations like the back of their hand, and is generally good at all things PvP, yet still gets stuck in bronze and unable to leave while NEW PLAYERS get instantly put into silver, something is definitely wrong.
And the fact that there are no team queues the whole system is less about skill and more about luck. Basically it boils down to if you get lucky enough to have teammates who aren’t completely incompetent and will actually communicate. Sure, gold tier and up might not be like that, but the other tiers are.
Good PvPers who genuinely want to improve and want to climb the ranks simply can’t unless they get lucky, and people don’t realize that! A good player can only carry so much when the odds are stacked so high against them.

If you basically started at Legendary how can it “feel prestigious to earn it”?
This system is abysmal if you don’t ace your placement matches. Nothing but casuals looking to farm pips regardless of win/lose. Not even remotely competitive play.
But hey, at least 250 players get to have fun…
“lulz just git gud! quit being a sore loser” Is what i’m sure someone is going to tell you, but not me because i am currently stuck in the joke that is bronze divistion, with absolutely no way of escaping!
I’m in the same boat. Lost my first 3 matches which is apparently the most important three matches you will ever play regarding your score. I went 4-3 after that to finish 4-6 and got stuck in bronze at 954.
Recently I won 7 games straight and managed to go up a whooping 80-85 points. I figure at that rate if I win the next 40 straight I might make it to 1500.
Good thing I was mostly after the ascended armor or this would be unbearable. But.. it would have been nice to not have my score decided so early based on (un)luck of the draw my first three matches.
I lost my first 8 matches for the mandatory matches that decided my rating.
also, 7 games in a row? very nice! I hope you make it out of bronze.

They nerfed Dragonhunter though… what they did buff was base guardian virtues and staff skills. Let’s be real though, base guardian virtues are trash when compared to Dragonhunter and buffing them won’t really do much except maybe bring back a support guardian… and base guardians don’t even have the annoying traps… traps….. which now won’t even daze you now. Hallelujah.
I hope what this means is that they are looking at base specs so hopefully Deathshroud will receive buffs as well. Putting down a bet – if Deathshroud does get buffs next patch, I will give everyone on this forum 1000 gold.
(just kidding, maybe 1 copper?)They’re slowly nerfing most OP things, which imo is a good thing. The process took a long @$$ time (1 year lmfao).
I wouldn’t exactly call traps losing daze and gaining slow a “nerf”. it’s basically the same thing, except now i can’t ignore it with stability. honestly, I find it to be more annoying than the daze

Instead of waiting for anet to bring in a tutorial for spvp why not offer to teach people how to properly pvp? Maybe even make a guild out of it

Okay let’s be honest here, the desert borderlands actually weren’t that bad, and either is the hardened gate nerf. It’s not like the gate nerf is going to make it so zergs can get through gates at blazing speeds, if anything it will speed it up by only a few seconds. As for the DBL, that wasn’t so bad either the only problems were that it was too big and that is was different. Neither of these are actual problems, people just tend to overreact when theres a change.

Exactly that reason. We want our animations back and seeing Asura get an update to theirs and Sylvari still swingin’ their arms around grinning like fools while ours were called “immersion breaking” is ridiculous. :P
I’ pretty sure asura never actually got an update to their animations.
Well you need to look again.
I have looked. the whole head scratching thing isn’t new.

Obviously I go into this knowing that some players will be very upset. That’s why it’s such a tough decision.
Ankdarkwolf, Darkmikau, Ballads, Spira, Caerbannog, Cysgod, you each posted a variant of an accusation I’ve seen many times over the past few months on the forums, something along the lines of, “AN shipped half an expansion with HoT.” I take issue with that. We shipped a new region full of content, a new mastery system, gliding, guild halls, a new profession, nine new elite specializations for existing professions, and more. Then we shipped precursor journeys for existing legendaries, and said, “We’ve been working hard on new legendary weapons, the first handful of which will be introduced in Heart of Thorns, with more to come in subsequent updates.” While I fully get that you’re disappointed today, this is not about us shipping half an expansion pack.
Mo
This is the most disrespectful response to a customer base I’ve seen in awhile. You DID ship half of an expansion although I’ll go as high as 60%. Half of what came out was just reworks on core systems (many of what came out for non-HoT purchasers too) and the new region was 3 and a half maps. GW2 managed those same things in feature packs before you announced expansions. Those were free! When you get $50-$100 per person, I expect that the least you can do is finish what you promised on the “box” and you hire more people if needed. Sad…
I’ve noticed MO is kinda disrespectful. but try not to get on his bad side, he actually gave me an infraction and removed the comment I made that earned my place in his response because he didn’t agree with it.
Fair enough. I’m done. Thanks for the warning.
Yeah… hes definitely the ONLY person who is being disrespectful in ANYWAY what so ever! (sarcasm).
You people have done nothing but complain and point fingers and be disrespectful to ANET in this forum post (and other forums posts) but mike says something that is blunt (but not disrespectful) and suddenly hes the one in the wrong? PLEASE! the amount of QQ in just this forum post alone is ridiculous and uncalled for! you all act as though anet is taking away your newborn child and not some useless weapons that have ZERO purpose! THINK ABOUT IT! legendary weapons give you NOTHING other than “oooh i can change the stats on my staff but thats it” when you could craft a few ascended staves (and put sigils on them) for far cheaper. all this outrage is completely pointlessThere are a lot of things in the world that are useless. This point is irrelevant. What is relevant that if I bought it, if I paid real money for it, I expect to get it. And yes, they were an advertised part of what I bought here. How pointless it might be to someone else is neither here nor there. I spent money on something and as a consumer I expected to get it, not be told they’re no longer working on it but “eventually” they’ll do it. Especially not with a company that already has a reputation of “eventually” meaning years or never.
Well, just like the whole “xpac being $50” stuff that went on, this will blow over and no one will care after about a month. People don’t ACTUALLY CARE they just want to complain, that’s all this is, is just people complaining. Not because they care, but because they can.
Actually, I think this situation is very different. When you have people like Wooden Potatoes, who is obviously an adamant fan of GW2 (and many of us still are fans), talking about things that could cause him to “abandon the franchise,” then you know there is something amiss and worth consternation and ongoing discussion.
Things have snowballed. I think Anet’s intentions the past 1.5 years were good, but they either made some serious missteps or were a little too ambitious and ended up with a game they couldn’t properly maintain and sustain. Either way, I believe it is fully within their ability to right the ship, but they may have to make some very painful (hopefully for the company more than the customers) decisions.
In my honest opinion i think it’s best if anet scraps legendaries and focus on fixing the game, that’s what I’ve been trying to get at. but complaining about a mishap anet made doesn’t solve anything. Maybe they should of added in all the HoT legendaries and then say they were done, probably would of been less chaos. I just hope whatever anet does works out for the better

Ahhhh…. the amount of people getting upset over this is amusing to me.
I too get amused when consumers get upset when they’re robbed by companies.
I meant the everyone yelling at each other and Anet.
And no one was “robbed” they just feel robbed, legendary weapons were pointless anyways.
So, you’re saying that if you pay for a product and you only get part of it and the company tells you that they’ve stopped working on the rest of your purchase until “eventually,” you would be completely satisfied and not feel “robbed” of part of your money?
And how fast would you be to buy another product from that same company if they haven’t delivered all you paid for on your first purchase?
Well considering i don’t care about legendary weapons because i can see how useless they truly are… yeah i wouldn’t be fazed
So you’re fine with people not getting what they paid for as long as its not the thing you wanted. I sure hope that the people you’re kittenting on right now are still around to return the favor when they inevitably cut the content you want.
Legendary weapons are completely useless why are people making such a big deal about this? Do you truly honestly care or are you just complaining because you’re mad? Are you that heartbroken by anet scrapping the legendary weapons? Or just mad/upset because it wont happen? It was a dumb move on their part, sure. But in the grand scheme of things, it really doesn’t effect much.

I personally think they he, like everyone else, is blowing this way out of proportion. Anet isn’t removing all legendaries they are just not adding in the newest ones. Yet, people are acting as if Anet is saying they are removing ALL legendaries. The whole thing will blow over and people will no longer care in a couple of weeks to a month, happens every time theres news on a big change. Just like when and made the change to diamond skin trait, people flipped out, but, now no one cares. If Anet shows that it’s better this way everyone will calm down in time, lashing out at Anet won’t solve anything though.

I’ve actually made mention of this before. not only is the after cast longer but the arrow speed is slower as well. Now, it is kind of cool that dual shot arcs because theoretically it gets around things like minions and pets which can get in the way, but then you notice that ranger bow and guardian blow can piece, and also the ark on dual shot is not enough to avoid these things anyway.
The long and short of it is that the longbow is a condi weapon which does not have the speed to inflict conditions fast enough, does not have the condi burst potential which would counter the slowness of the weapon, and does not have the damage to be effective.
There was a time when the longbow did serve a purpose. You could blast the fire feild three times in quick succession, leap through it and even whirl finish it. you can’t do any of that now because of all the stuns thrown around these days.
Like all things with the warrior everything has fallen behind while every other class has just evolved. (the one exception is thief, which if you ask me has gotten screwed almost as much as warrior,)
Agreed with everything except Thief. Thief has been meta in basically every scenario forever despite nerfs forever. The past few months I agree theyve been next to us in the homeless shelter, but the recent patch has employed them
Warrior and thief, doomed to be the worst classes forever. :p
Maybe one day we will be in the top, maybe.

As far as i know anet has no plans to add something like this in ever. It’s one of those things that would create more conflict between players rather than help anything.

Wow byolith youre artwork is amazing!
Worrying is like a rocking chair: You go back and forth but never get anywhere.
Yea, reveal isn’t needed. You can counter any other class in stealth by just sitting in stealth longer. Sneak gyro’s the one exception, but you can pretty much see where they are with that thing anyways and you can still counter by using shortbow and deflecting shots off the gyro to hit the scrapper.
No need to fix what’s not broken.
I would exactly call stealthing in retaliation to someone else stealthing as a “counter”. Because then it becomes more of a game of “who can stealth longer” instead of counter-play.

Let’s nerf best designed weapon set for the sake of weaker one? Because thieves clearly need more nerfs? Are you trying to force EVERYONE into staff?
Ask for d/d buffs, suggest rework. There is way to make that set more interesting w/o butchering other sets or make them too strong.So, you have got 5 children and all of them need to be ideal weight – some are underweight and the one who needs to lose weight has got a chocolate bar, but all have to get the same food (on top of that).
You can either nerf one and then buff all or you can only have one that shines while all other are subpar – that’s my reasoning for this thread.ETA: By saying: “No, lets not nerf our only viable set!” we remain having only one viable set as the others have to get their stuff from traits to which D/P also has got access to. Thief is pretty much dead anyway and I guess everybody knows, so why not kill it completely and start new?
Are you seriously implying d/p is fat kid with chocolate bar? Really, focus your hate crusade again other classes and for d/d and not against fellow thieves. Nerfing d/p won’t change anything for your beloved d/d it will just force everyone into staff or simply make very few thieves that left to completely quit this class/game.
If you actually think devs would suddenly get an urge to buff d/d because of d/p nerf you really don’t know them well.
Take s/d as an example in its glory day. It got nerfed couple times, you think it helped acro line or sp? No. We all know what happend afterwards.
Yeah it was a bad analogy for her. A better analogy is that D/P is this big tree overshadowing the D/D sapling longing for sunlight. In order for the D/D sampling to grow, D/P needs to have its branches trimmed here and there to allow some sunshine for the D/D sapling. This doesn’t mean to cut down the D/P tree by its trunk or cut off all its branches and leaves, but to simply trim (nerf) it so it share the sunlight with other samplings it overshadowing.
EDIT: too much typos
Yeah let’s cut some branches from the tree that is already to fall down because there is entire industry (sup scrapper) growing nearbly.
Tbh idk why i even bother talking to a mob that wants to kill own class completely in some delusional idea that it would help. I been playing BnS past few days and it was most fun i ever had playing an assassin class. GW2 can go in the trash can for all i care.

“slight nerf?” ANET is essentially destroying the main selling point of the HoT Chronomancer. I don’t see that as “slight” I see it as a directed deliberate assault on Mesmer and circumstancial evidence that some or all of the devs have a personal problem with the class.
They are lowing the effectiveness of one boon! And an OP one at that! Plus that’s only a sneak peak of what they changing! Thief has been the worst class to play for quite some time now and people just sweep that under the rug! It’s okay to ruin thief by nerfing it into the ground and making every class be able to do a thieves job better but DON’T YOU DARE EVEN NERF MESMER! Heavens no! It is a small nerf to an overpowered skill, deal with it.
Worrying is like a rocking chair: You go back and forth but never get anywhere.
Mesmer is still good, only a bad player who doesn’t understand them would think they are gonna be terrible once that patch hits. And what Lythoc says is spot on.
i highly doubt it.
I main a thief, but alt on a mesmer.
the thing i find most comforting is that the amount of bad thieves that will come out of this is going to be too darn high and will be a nice, easy… obvious kill.
in theory, we should have nothing to worry about. at all.
Good thieves however…
Even a Thief will have to worry about other thieves, mesmers can still deal mega damage and like i said on another post.
the mes+thief pain train is gonna be a thing again.
And that makes me happy.
A thief that loses to a shatter mesmer is terrible. Period. Sorry.
Thief’s defense is just capable of neutralizing half of our damage output simply because we either require a target or it makes our clones stand as still as frozen statue, while his stealth outlast ours.
I’m not saying we will be necessarily fodder, but claiming that thief dying to shatter is terrible while they are our natural counter… well I can’t agree.
pepsi… you do realize that a thief’s stealth is SUPPOSED TO OUTLAST A MESMERS STEALTH!! stealthing is a big part of thief you aren’t supposed to outstealth them! All this QQing coming for mesmers complaining about thief are people who obviously don’t understand mesmer and/or thief

Give it about a month after the patch comes out and nobody will care about the nerf anymore. And seriously, 33% faster cooldowns times is still pretty good yall are just mad because you won’t have extra short cooldowns while the rest of us had to deal with normal cooldown times

You said this chart is from last weeks match up, no? As in during the current bunker meta? As in the meta that thief and warrior don’t belong in since neither thief or warrior can out dps the bunkers, or bunker better than the other classes?

Helseth has commented on this reddit thread, see below quote.
LordHelseth:
From my perspective mesmer will be completely unplayable provided that these notes are all the meaningful changes. Similiar to how warrior is in its current state right now, I can’t find a single justified reason to play shatter mesmer in pvp over thief, rev or necro.
Bunker mes is completely dead with quickness rez and alacrity nerf sso shatter is our onl hope. From what I’m theorycrafting shatter will be n such a pitiful state that it wont even be worth playing casually, might aswell reroll thief
It seems to me that arenanet is killing the chrono bunker mesmer because they don’t want ANY iteration of this build in pvp but my question then is what build do they want us to have? Shatter? Shatter was already not viable and inferior to thief/dh/rev before the patch. So if the bunker archetype is dead and shatter is unviable mesmer will have no spot whatsoever, which I feel might be intended by the devs because they simple have no idea how to balance it. Frankly, I don’t either. Portal is completely broken and so is moa and the effect of continum split along with those effects so it’s really hard to be viable without being mandatory.
Still sad that the class I’ve mained for so long is likely completely dead for half a year.Link:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/416x1z/as_a_mesmer_main_for_years_i_am_not_too_fussed/
Here’s the thing: People are acting like a mesmer nerf is the end of the world, but it’s not. If you quit a class simply because of a slight nerf then maybe that wasn’t actually your favorite class. Thief was nerfed into the dirt and people were still able to make good use of them. So you won’t be completely OP, darn, but that doesn’t make the whole class completely useless.

Well with DS being the only thing in the entire game that can completely block condis i’d say that it definitely needed a change. After all, no other class can completely block condis like that.

Short answer: No.
Long answer: No. Fighting a dragonhunter trapper on his traps is suicidal. The key is to fight him away from traps and watch for when he sets down traps and avoid them and block, interrupt, and blind him if you can to make him traps useless.

idk if this is any help but there is a little workaround for the arena decorations.
You can use normal decorations in the arena by joining either blue or red team then opening guild panel > storage > decorations > then clicking on decorate. the decorations cant be placed on the ground but you can use the arena barrier to place them close to the ground. (i made a second floor in the arena using snow piles)

Does dodging fix it? Or using a skill that moves you?

Probably the 10th post I’ve see of this… Maybe anet should fix it.

I’m weighing in that the Pact Leader you are trying to rescue throughout the Raid story is a valid candidate. At the moment he isn’t listed by name but is “well respected by his peers.” The whole thing has an air of mystery to it. Who ever the person is we are rescuing I feel will be of some importance.
Hmmm…. Now that you mention it… Anet could roll with this as long as they give him a good backstory and they don’t kill him off in the raidstory.
