Thanks a lot Filterkat! I’ll look into trying this out and let you know how it turns out. It is true that is based on your style of play but who kwows, this might work out better for me. Thanks again.
Well I went with Quickening Zephyr because it helped with my cat being able to land hits on moving targets, that and it landed bigger crits. Also like the bow for the range option. Helps with targets trying to flee so I can cripple them. I’ll try that combo also. My gear, I’m wearing the Whispering Armor of Infiltration(Exotic Karma Set), which now looking at it, have the wrong runes. Weapons looking to replace sigils anyways and accessory/rings are condition damage based.
So I’m looking for a upgrade to my ranger build. I’m based on condition damage and have been trying to keep up with the updates to keep my build fresh and be able to work with it(except almost all the skills for ranger that seem benefical are bugged imo). So here is a quick run down of my build
Weapons
*Sword w/Torch
*Shortbow
Pets
*Wolf
*Jaguar
Traits
*10 points in Skrimish
*30 points in Wilderness Survival
*30 points in Beast Mastery
Skills
*Lightning Reflexs
*Quickening Zephyr
*Signet of the Wild
*Entangle
*Troll Urguent
Thanks for the help
Imo, severe cullling and the insane amount of karka that do “spawn” in the middle of the settlement will just destroy everyone there. I remember dying and then watching on my map, one down player, then 8, then the whole settlement was filled with blue skull marks. This was design was horrible. It could have been better with the swarm if they were not lvl 84s with veterans and champions. It also hindered the queen since it turned out, around 15 players were able to make it and start fighting the queen. All other WPs were contested except Pearl.
I’m also noticing whenever I use the skill lighting reflexes, or any weapon skill that breaks stun or lock, it doesn’t seem to work about 75% of the time, I can notice when I get locked again but when its just a one lock, I can activate all my skills but won’t break the stun or lock. You’ll just do the animation and maybe dodge an attack, thats it. Still rooted to the spot for another 5-7 secs.
Hi everybody! I’m looking for people to pose in WvW for a photo contest. I’m looking for people to help stand around in a giant group with me being the one solo guy in the group. I’m on the HoD server and looking for people for NS and SF. I’ll come up with more details on where to meet and time to take the picture. Thank you to all who are interested and helping!!!
By the way, this is for fun, so please don’t try to kill me or each other until after I’m done taking pics please!!!
Even worse … the pet provides the thief with an easy target to spam Cloak & Dagger on. If they are specced heavily in shadow arts they can be gaining 600+ hp per second while stealthed as well as stacks of might … this results in the thief being able to soft reset the fight continually through chain Cloak & Dagger and restart it with several stacks of Might … it’s dumb and a horrible oversight in my opinion.
Pretty much how I lose to a thief almost everytime spec’d this way. Seriously can get them to 1/4 health then gone. Then the thief comes back with the stacks of might and almost full health, while I’m hanging somewhere between and quarter and half.
Well Remram, send me a msg in game tomorrow. I’ll be on in the afternoon and later at night.
Hedge of Denravi is an american server, with gates of arah, but good luck finding people for it. I’m the only guy trying to do it(solo).
Hedge of Denravi is also open, though it seems like I’m the only one trying to do it!!! If you want to help, just pm me.
Hey, has anyone else been having problems trying to leave the instance after listening to Rox’s story and Braham’s story? It wouldn’t let me leave the instance nor was the symbol for me to exit the instance there. I had to wp out of the instance just to leave it.
I don’t know, but it does sound like a great idea. But I think the negativity on these items is that the chest are dropped so often, but the only way to get the keys for them is doing the personal storyline or buying them. I hear people getting the keys from loot, but the odds seem pretty low. While chest are easier to obtain from loot. Heck, I even have 7 chest right now and thats still growing.
Quick question to people out there and want to see opinion(encourage reason). Should Rally Abilites, the ones for stunning and attacking (i.e. throw dirt, thunderclap) be able to ignore abilities? I believe it should since I hate seeing a teammate trying to heal me and an enemy comes up and starts to finish me and when I use the stun, its either ignored or evaded and then I’m killed before the teammate can rez.
I give Cerberus Baelfire 9/10. Thats a great name for a Charr Elementalist and would strike fear into the enemy.
Garron Honorblade-Guardian
Wears silver and teal armor but with a mix of red on the edges of the armor to give the look of rust and blood after years of searching for the Undead General who killed his entire warband except for one. He has been named Honorblade since other Charr see him as one of the most loyal and honor-bound Guardians they have even seen. He has also earned the title for honoring his fallen warband by slaying the Undead Genearal who killed them. To this day, he fights against the Zhaitans forces and continues to honor his warband.

So this is my first character since starting GW2. LvL 75 Ranger Sword/Axe and Longbow. I’m about to reset my traits and thinking about switching weapons and aiming for better stats and sigils that work with my traits. Any help at all? By the way, I plan on playing WvW and PvP when I reach 80. Thanks for the help.
I’ll try to read this post as much as I can, but I have 15-18 credit hour terms, so it might take some time to come back and look, but still thank you for your advice!
I do have to admit that I am new to this game so you are right dreztina, but I am getting better. Still wish there was some way that they could put rank 10 and below with other rank 10s and below instead of rank 20s.
The Megadestroyer event seems to have gone quiet. Yesterday, it took me around 30 mins just to find enough people to do the pre-event. And I still only got 3 people to help me. I had to ping Lions Arch for help when it came to the battle. But I think the real problem is the chest. After we destroyed the Destroyer, about 3/4 of us got uncommons and one masterwork from the chest!!! I think I found the reason why no-one does this event anymore. Anyone else having this problem also?
So after going thru a few pvp matches today, I have to ask, is the pvp really balanced? I know there are a few issues here and there, but what I’m really wondering is how other people view it. Personally, I don’t think so cause all I seem to face in matches are thiefs and mesmers. Mesmers aren’t such a problem, but thiefs were getting annoying after awhile. Like the ability for them to cloak and then finish you off. And then even in 1v1 against them, they had to stun lock me once and 3/4 of my health just disappears in a flash after a few hits. Or how guardians just use aoe attacks that send me flying and then another attack that sends me flying and then a third one. You think after the second one there would be a stability to prevent you from flying from the third one? Then rangers being in a downed state and their ability to have their pet heal doesn’t work half the time. What is everyone else’s opinion on this?
With my ranger, I use longbows instead. Some of the skills are better and can help with stealth targets. The volley of arrows is great when you have a thief going stealth or large group of enemies.
So I already know that this topic has been brought up a lot, but want to throw it out there again. Think that the new update for AC exp. mode is pretty difficult. At the spider, the spiderlings just kept downing one of us at a time, to the point where we couldn’t even get back up from the downed state cause their little “salvo” of poison would just drain your health. All of us had to die twice just to kill all the spiderlings then take on the huge spider.
That could be it. Seems a little unfair that you can be blind when downed and have to really on chance to stop the finisher when other professions have aoe interruptions or have ones to move them.
See while I’ve been playing the pvp matches, the stun will rarely work. Don’t know if I have to target or its something where it has a VERY short range and players are outside it, but the main problem I have with it is that it doesn’t work. I even try to let myself to into the down state, never hitting anyother key until I see them do the finisher and press 2, but nothing happens. I’m still finished off.
Do Rangers have a stun in pvp? Like when you go down and just on the verge of dying, I know a few professions have a way for them to stall the finishing move. And I think its hotkeyed to number 2. But when I use it, it doesn’t do anything to stun them and they still go through the process of finishing me off. Thanks for any help.
Before going any farther, this isn’t about how bad the game is. In all honesty, I think GW 2 has to be one of the best MMORPG games I have ever played. What I’m wondering is if I should keep GW2 or not? My comp is a Lenovo z570 and on a good day, my fps in the game will be somewhere between high 40’s and low 50’s. For lows, its in the low 30s but never drops below 30. What I’m wondering is how will it perform in large cities or in pvp and then based on these results if I should keep playing GW2 or turn it back in for refund and wait till I can get a better rig. Thanks for all your support!
