so I’m alittle interested in running viper/sinister s/t bow build for pve. was knocking around indestructible golem in pve was getting around 14 to 18 stacks of burning when using the zerk f1 and around 35 stacks of bleed its about a consistent 6k per tick I know this can be pushed even farther in pve with food buffs. but I’m still alittle concerned still wont be enough
currently one of the biggest things holding condi necros/reapers back in pve are the way chill/fear function in pve unique to us fear and chill do dmg there a ton of npc that are flat out immune to them both cause of there cc factor and this should be fixed maybe simply by making the target immune to the cc portion not the dmg and secondly the dmg from chill needs to stack simply cause in a pve environment you wont be the only one applying chill.
p.s. sorry about the typos and the massive run on sentence been up all night and couldnt be bothered
You’d need to test it with more speed on the pet, or the target with less speed to see if a 20% base speed increase would help. Can you get the target to use swiftness and then you apply a cripple? That should reduce the speed by 17% which is close to a 20% increase for the bird.
The problem with the bird too is it stopping to cast the swiftness buff, which takes ages. That would need to be changed too.
hi target ranger so the only time the pets could hit me was either A. they game them self swiftness or B. sigent of the hunt. but in but case while in combat i was out running them about 60% of the time. the pets would need a baseline 33% speed increase at the min but even then they will be missing there attacks often.
Wouldnt a simple cd increase to we heal as one fix the perma boons while make the heal still desirable. to be honest when traited we heal as one had a 16sec cd and healed for about 7k thats kinda strong
1 – If you do this you would need to increase the healing amount by at min 40%
2 – This wouldn’t really solve the issue just make the skill worse
3 – This would make an already subpar skill completely worthless
4 – Again this would make an average skill subpar.
The WHaO isn’t OP it allows us to have a better burst, but if you go to into it for the 100% quickness uptime you are really hurting yourself as your damage output and survive go down drastically, you also have to spam WHaO so you can’t be proactive in defenses.
i understand this but the reason everyone is complaining is about the 100% quickness uptime and to be honesty i love the fact ranger have such a huge uptime on boons it is strong but has some hard counters necros and anyone else that can steal them.
also kitty why you not on TS :P
i would like to start out by saying i do not main a ranger and i understand that Heal as one is far from op seeing as your sacrifice alot to maintain quickness, so the reason i am even making this post is to suggest reasonable nerfs and to be honest it not the heal everyone is complaining about its the quickness up time.
1. increase the CD of Heal as one from 20 sekittenraited to 28 sekittenraited
2.reduce the boons copied from 13 to 5
3.adjust instinctive reactions ICD of 20 sec to 30 sec
4.Add a 1 sec ICD to companions might
this is what i have so far i would love your guys and gals thoughts and let try and keep this civil
sooo my super long story is i have had a ton of lvl 80s but i always get bored when lvling a ele because i feel like i am playing it wrong. i understand ele has a high skill floor thats kinda why i need help so Ele forums please help me you are my only hope :P
thievies are in a odd place atm and have been both targeted to be nerf’d and indirectly nerf’d. when other classes were granted the ability to reveal that hurt, channeled skills still tracking through stealth hurts and is kinda broken, and when they nerf’d mug so it didnt crit that really hurt. not to mention the whole meta atm works against us ,tbh thieves need a slight buff or undo some nerfs in pvp nothing crazy though. if eles can have there nerfs undone while maintaining there broken burst i think we could atleast have mug crit again.
Guess I should join this place too. I just bought GW1 and was trying to link it to my GW2 account here. But it gives me that long Display Name and thinks it isn’t linked.
Sent a support ticket before finding this thread so I hope it all goes well.
Thanatos, perhaps you could post the reset password info they gave you. Might be useful for some of us if that worked for you.
You can find a thread over in Account Issues regarding this issue. At this time, you need to contact CS for assistance. Top of Page – Support – Submit a Request.
Good luck.
already submitted a ticket, just trying to figure out if there was a work around other than cs i have had the worst experience with them so i was trying to avoid it
so i have tried for the past 2 days now to link my accounts but the the website seem to not want to do it. i get a message that the accounts have been linked but as soon as i log out and back in its gone and allows me to link it again in the same manner. anyone else having this problem
To start im writing this not as a qq thread but rather as a general observation.
I have had over 20 level 80s over the time i have spent i have had the most trouble with 1 class being engis, i have had a total of 3 other them and more recently have spent time learn the ins and outs of them. throughout this time spent i have noticed some flaws with them which albeit unintentionally raise its skill floor. currently condi engis are in a good place but power engis are a different story the reason i believe this happened boils down to how the rifle and kits function. rifles play abit odd it have bleed, immobilize, a launch, a 2 part high dmg skill, and a soft cc removal but if doesn’t do one of these thing well when compared to other classes. this where kits would take over for what the rifle lacks alot of our kits in the same boat as the rifle they do not do one thing particularity well for power based builds what engis need is “pure” weapons and kit. by “pure” i mean weapons that focus on one thing and does it well. if you look at the necro’s scepter it is a condi weapon and it does it well the same with can be said about a warrior’s axe or guard’s great sword they all focus one thing and do it well.
Now the question this come up is how do you implement fix for this problem without lowering the skill floor to something equivalent to say a warrior?
(ignore the extremely poor grammar)
like the title says we need one people yo have never stepped a foot into spvp shouldnt be doing them anyways. having a team of new players or fight against said team is no fun. im not saying the rank req should be high but high enough so they atleast know what they are doing
the problem is they are not communicating my account was hacked this morning and i have not even received a automated response. an this guy/gal is at 4 day this is insane
Support does communicate. You should always get an automated response, then it can take anywhere from 3 to 5 days. If you have not heard from a support rep by that time, you post your ticket # in the 3 days or older thread.
the fact is they are not communicating and it is a week day not the weekend and a automated response should be sent upon the submission of a ticket to clarify that it has been received shouldn’t take more than a few hours for it to be generated. now a actual rep i understand takes longer
the problem is they are not communicating my account was hacked this morning and i have not even received a automated response. an this guy/gal is at 4 day this is insane
so i have submitted a ticket changed my password to both my email and game. most of my chars and guilds banks were cleared of anything of value. what i would like is a acknowledgement from anet that they have recevied the ticket even a automated response would ease my worry.
- double adrenaline gain
- double proc chance
- great against aegis
- great when blinded
- crits for 2x 850+ with my Knights/Zerker warrior which is much higher than other range aa (e.g. rifle #1)
IMO making LB#1 hit faster would be to much. Rifle #1 instead needs some love.
you aslo forgot the trait stronger bow string and it unlisted effect of changing every attack to a 100% combo finisher
Been playing since launch and i am now working on my 16th 80 yeah i know i have commitment issues lol. but my current mesmer uses this in spvp and solo arena and omg its funny because you can tell the enemy becomes frustrated.
10/10 try this trait out sword pistol/greatsword and the daze mantra
we all had great synergy with our builds and weapon set ups it was fun and well Alpha was a joke one of our members fought him in the nude and didnt go down once
he isnt being lazy he is right one day it will be almost impossible to find a group for some lvl now this could be fix by adding a cross server lfg tool not a finder per say more like a window that shows all groups and such with a filter say it works with only the servers you are grouped with for WvWvW
Casual players are welcome but they shouldn’t expect to REALLY benefit visually and set themselves apart from anyone else unless they put in TIME.
Because…..it’s an MMO.
you sir missed the point of this thread it is a event for the COMMUNITY when you dont include a good portion of said COMMUNITY why have the event at all.
legendary items are obtainable to everyone may take longer for a causal than it does for a hardcore player but it will happen at one point these items for this event as it sits you will not see a causal running around with any of the crafted skins
honestly its a shame such are large amount of the player base is getting shafted i remember in gw1 getting my candy cane sword for the xmas event with little work i thought is was great and everyone felt alittle more awesome and thats the idea behind a event and they missed it entirely so far with act 1 i hope this improves
The content/events are there with no grind. The weapons can still be crafted after the Halloween event has ended as indicated by arena net. All of the BLC weapon skins can be traded as well. So you do not have to grind for the stuff per say. They basically gave us Halloween legendary weapons. Now if they were only craft-able during the event I could see the problem but since they can be made a year from now I don’t see a huge problem with it.
“No grind”. They use 250 orichalcum ingots, 100 rare halloween mats, 40 wines, lodestones, bloodshards,etc,etc.
