dmh.7435 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 Hi,I am coming back to the game after not that long away and there is no longer a section to seleect a pvp build when i click on hat in the pvp lobby. The area where it normally is is completely blank but I swear i saw it not that long ago. Furthermore, pasting an equipment template that uses weapons the character does not own is not providing the pvp weapons.This has made making a new character to exclusively PVP on extremely difficult and unusable compared to before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hiin.5137 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 You can buy equipment pretty easily. If you Google you can reach information about current meta builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obliviscaris.6937 Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 You have an account wallet. Go to the vendor and grab your weapons. Unusable is a hyperbole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmh.7435 Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 which vendor? i'm in the pvp lobby. At any rate posting workarounds is besides the pointIf you open the pvp build ui, do you have a default builds section? If so, can you screenshot where it is and to get there? I also was trying to show the game to a friend who's never played before and has no interest in pve and this is now a much harder sell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmh.7435 Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 I should clarify, on a new character the 3 tabs are empty build templates Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I told you where to find builds. either godofpvp.net or metabattle, or make your own.again, if they DID remove "default builds", its for the better. they are noob traps. none of the default builds were ever good.so again, its not some "workaround to an issue". the only issue here is the fact that you relied on default builds in the first place, and somehow missed the fact that weapon/armor vendors have existed in the Mists since its inception.

dmh.7435 Posted July 28, 2020 Author Share Posted July 28, 2020 Ignoring the stuff you didn't address, why are you assuming I rely on default build templates? Attack me all you want but I am simply pointing out I'm looking for a feature that was around for a very long time on the UI and they are nowhere to be found despite all of the current game literature referring to them. I'll make sure anyone I know with a new or passing interest in gw2 doesn't come to me for help and that they prepare and study some metabattle templates ahead of time , wouldn't want someone interested in trying the game using a non meta build =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to PVE. Learn how to play.im not going to entertain this thread any longer. i told you how to do everything you asked. where to find builds, where to find items. those were your main concerns. you have the ability now to be just as effective as everyone else in this game, because they ALSO go to metabattle or godofpvp, that's literally what 99% of the playerbase does.
