Guild Wars 2

I dont know if this is a bug, or what, but a new problem arose last night whilst trying to do a guild bounty mission. We located person of interest, and when we tried to get on the map where he was located, we were all split up all over the place. This was all people in the same guild, a lot of people are friends, and yet for some reason when we were told bounty was next to WP we could not see him. When attempting to join the person who had found him, via party/join option, there was no option to join him on the other map, and thus we failed the guild bounty.

What we need is an F5 button called Sacrifice which will sacrifice our pets in the name of a chosen god and grant us say 60s of huge buffs to toughness, or power, or healing (depending on which god we made sacrifice too). Basically, no pet, no problem

I think the extent of the shafting doesn’t stop at the reduction in crit. 5 new traits added to the game for Rangers, not one of them is useful in comparison to other traits for other classes. Eles getting 25% extra healing for allies, that is a HUGE buff. We get pet heals nearby allies when using F2 skill, useless. Gaurdian grants 5s Aegis to allies when they block, we get 15% chance to block projectiles, whilst in melee, useless, cheange that to when in ranged attack, and its useful. Mesmer gains 1000 (yes 1000) to healing when they interupt a foe, we rangers get remove 2 conditions and gain fury when we use a survival skill (probably the only useful new trait, but then again, ive got a healing spring, and a warhorn, jobs already done thanks). Warriors get 10% in attack speed when dual weilding (thats 10 more dps than they currently do) we get arrows fire at twice the velocity (essentially reducing the chance for an evade, kittening useless). Engineers get Fortified turrets meaning the placed turrets gain 4s of reflection (something a lot of people have asked for) we get 50% increase to poison damage and pets first attack after swapping causes poison, considering I have 1 attack (sword button 3) that causes poison, and I have pets that already cause poison if i wanted to do it, whats the point in any of these new traits, we have been completely shafted here. Every other class has an almost game changing new trait, we have nothing I will use, or will any other zerker build ranger. Not only that, but this misses the point people have been making since release, everything a ranger can do, someone else does better, they are a weak link because they add very little to a party, eles heal, gaurds boon and protect, war dps and tank, mesmers are a class of their own, thiefs have very high dps (although low survivability) and so on and so on. Ranger is my main, and I love playing him, but try lfg on a high fractal. I went into a group looking for “experienced player” 30 secs later i get kicked, they readvertised group asking “experienced player, NO RANGERS”. Surely this is reason enough to make some changes.
