Guild Wars 2

Account bound dyes +1 from me

800 gems per tool is quite a lot, IMO they should be movable across toons on your account.

Please make this happen!

They should make scepter #1 like the Necros scepter #1 or Mesmers GS #1. That would be awesome!

Thought I would share the build Ive been running the past few days in Straits of Devestation…

Build (copy&paste): http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fcAQFAUl0p6ZX7SfF1LJxoCdO0jBff1KSR+t8nCyF;TMAgzCmM2A

The core of the build is the Bomb-kit. With 30p Inventions and Elixir Infused bombs paired with 20 alchemy and Backpack Regenerator you´ll have a lot of regeneration and be very tough to kill.

Choice of runes, sigils and weapons are optional, same goes for utility goggles and Elixir S, those are just my personal preferences. For armor i run Clerics as bombs seem to scale rather well with healing power and power.

Grateful for any feedback!

Lol. But we are awesome at trolling people tho. Ive killed a lot of invaders in the JP @ EB by pulling them off platforms with the magnet or launching them with personal battering ram and/or overcharged shot

You can craft it, buy it on trading post, it can drop, probably some karma vendors around who sell it as well.

Ive gone back to playing my ranger in stead of my engineer I made after I had enough of the ranger.

I can now swap out my warhorn for a torch or dagger for better DPS because the warhorn is not needed anymore do get around quickly. With signet of the hunt on 25% movementspeed and greatsword with the 20% shorter cooldown trait I think rangers should be able to keep up with a SB-thief now when moving around. 9sec recharge 1200 range leap is pretty awesome.

WOW!

I just spent a few hours prowling around borderlands as tankcat. Most fun Ive had in weeks from WvW

I did however remove 10p from inventions and went for increased range trait in firearms and a rifle instead for p/s for the extra range.

So much fun to magnet pull sniper warriors from the walls to prybar them in the face. Free badges, yay!

How come AG (what seems to me) suddenly became such a good WvW server? A month ago we were between two tiers, going up and down after every matchup?

I rarely use turrets, but I frequently use both Elixir Gun (dunegons) and Flamethrower. I think most Engineers recognize themself in the way of playing you described.

OMG. Im having some major difficulties replying in this thread without dropping the mother of all f-bombs after reading the patch notes. Im so dissapointed right now all my motivation to play GW2 is just about gone.

Can someone please explain what 30 bullet points means? :S

Great skill and it always gets me into hilarious situations. Once I managed to stun-break my way into open air from the top level of SM with rocket boots…

The rifle skills would be perfect for a shotgun… IMO they should take all current rifle skills and make it a shotgun-kit and add some real rifle skills with 1200 range for the weapon.

I tried to name my brown bear Emergency Food Supply but it was to many characters

I liked the idea of having some of the gadgets giving passive effects. In terms a signet only with a different name… Say Rocket Boots give passive 10% movement speed and keep the long recharge activated effect, doesnt sound wrong at all imo.

The closest thing you can get to a real auto attack is to enable fast casting. That beeing said there is a thread like this / make grenades target people in stead of dirt three times a week :p

I liked the idea of swapping out the pet for a passive buff instead. I WANTS 25% movement speed!

Ive noticed the same when comparing my Guardian and Engineer…

This thread made my day, cant wait for the next patch now

I think it was the first time I used rifle #5. I lol´d so hard when my human engineer went “AAAAAAAARRGHAAAH!!!1”.

For WvW I usually run SB and Axe/Warhorn, or sometimes I change build for 1500 range and run LB and Axe / Warhorn. For PVE its either SB and Axe / Warhorn or GS and Axe / Warhorn.

I never leave the saftey of a town without the Axe / Warhorn.

Even with the “bugs” the Ranger Axe is my favorite weapon in the game. That beeing said it would be great if they fixed the following:

1. It didn’t hit yellow / neutral enemies.
2. It shouldn’t autoattack anything close after using Warhorn#5 (but Im guessing that is a Warhorn bug and happens with Sword MH as well?)

Gardian can support… the problem is what Anet means with “support”… :\

I compared dps skills with healing/support skills and there is a huge gap between them.
The biggest examble is between Judgment Int. and Merciful Int.
The first one works, small CD, good skill.
The second one doesn’t warks cause you miss 90% the target, long CD, bad skill.

So, if you like just “shout” a 300hp regen, “shout” a speed of movement boost or cure 1 condition every 90s… guardian can support. <——- Anet “support idea”

If you would like keep your party alive and full the life of a “near to death fiend”, you can’t.
<——- “Rest of the world” support idea…

Guardian support?
Tecnically yes… but in reality it is not.
Reroll DPS… this game is not designed for support… unfortunatly for me and all the player who like play this role. T_T

I would say that a Guardian thats traited to share his passive effect of Virtue of Resolve with nearby allies must be one of the most support-oriented builds in the game…

Im using Mace/Torch as my main weapon set.

I run around to get aggro and when they are all close I pop down the symbol with Mace#2, #4 for PBAoE burning with Torch and #2 whenever it is ready to block attacks and more AoE dmg, autoattack for the heal on the last attack in the chain while waiting for cooldowns. Smite Condition for condition removal and more PBAoE. Ive had great success with this build so far, currently lvl 49 and doing great.

It’s not an “Ultimate” skill. Is it so hard to read the description where it says “Elite” skill? Sheesh. If you ever played GW1, an Elite skill is a skill that’s very different, has a long CD and has very specific uses. It’s not a OMGWTFkittenBBQ one shot skill.

Oh you mean like the Thief skill “Dagger Storm”

Spin around, reflecting projectiles and throwing daggers that cripple and bleed nearby foes. You can move while spinning.

Does extremely high damage
Cripples and Bleeds
Reflects any Projectile
Immune to any CC

Yeah, i see how that works.

I could swear I´ve interrupted that elite more than once with shortbow#5…

The Warhorn is probably the most used offhand for Rangers, but normally with an Axe MH. My guess is that people avoid the sword because of the rooting when you auto attack (at least thats why I have avoided it ever since unlocking the weapon skills).

Sotaudi.1265:

And sometimes I will name my Actodus, Bob. There is no particular reason. It always amuses me to have a pet named Bob, for some reason. It is just a tradition I have from playing pet classes for many years.

Lol, I do the same thing. My Brown Bear is named Frank an the Actodus is named Bob.
