kamikharzeeh.8016 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 well, that haven't been many valid reasons. this "daed gaem" meme is probs one of the worst existing. skilllag alone is annoying, yet skill lack is a problem of equal size.besides, any there is a more limited sight range if u play on lower resolution... sometimes pretty annoying.also, much lag is created by stealthing / stealth engaging overall. i always get a smaller or bigger lag spike once anyone attacks out of stealth... no big deal if it's our group, but can get really bad if it's an enemic char. like 2 seconds on glassy cannons is tons. or for thieves, the most cowardish class existing.and then we have people alike@Slick.7164 said:Good example why range dmg should be nerfed. High dmg with 0 riskthat really believe what they say. the least risk you can have is a bulky char (firebrand, scrapper) or a thief, mesmer, warrior. T and W have pretty good mobility and can outrun most stuff. thieves even have still a huge amount of stealth and all those permastealthers still threeshot you and often avoid nearly all damage during their visible time. range chars with small risk are rangers, but ranger aren't good anyways. they are cheap pew pew, maybe what you'd play if you're drunk or bored or feeling evil. besides, all ranged chars are weak to pulls or missile blocks and fighting in non-flat terrain.

K THEN.5162 Posted July 1, 2020 Author Share Posted July 1, 2020 Reason #8: Anet doesn't respect EU server reset time and releases a patch during that time to fix some colour bug on their newest skyscale skin, causing numerous WvW players to lose their que spot in the game modehttps://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/108337/game-update-notes-june-23-2020#latest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faenar.8036 Posted July 3, 2020 Share Posted July 3, 2020 Reason #9: Game genre is slowly transfering from PvE / PvP into PvG - Players vs Game itself."Will my skills work today? Or, for this game session, I will be just "11111-ing Elite Specialization" ? Lets find it out and see what will happen today."... GW2 in 2020 in a nutshell.

DanAlcedo.3281 Posted July 6, 2020 Share Posted July 6, 2020 Reason #10: For years, players wanted all classes to have a viable build for zerging. Instead of giving Mesmer and Ranger something usefull, they buff Necro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their utilities in veil, portal, pulls, boon share and reflects... unless you're looking for a straight up damage based build like Rev or Necro, they've been and still are pretty darn helpful. Plenty of commanders run Chronomancers nowadays too. Ranger, on the other hand... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would never take a mesmer for it when Firebrand, rev, scrapper and tempest have enough projectile hate.Meanwhile, Mesmer Weapons are trash and Mesmer has no "job" in a zerg (other then being a toolbox for another player).

Dont dismiss a classes mechanics just because it requires another player to take full advantage of them. Isnt a healer just a tool for other players to stay alive? It would be nice if ANet could give mesmers another role to play in zergs as compared to ulilty and commanding though.Edit: although I just wanna make it clear I do agree with you about mesmer not being as useful right now just the way read your first post made seem they were never meta in zergs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K THEN.5162 Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 Reason #11: Forum moderation is so bad that it literally takes them 7+ days to notice something that infringes on their rulesThis only further supports that Anet barely reads the forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
