As someone with OCD who likes to finish every achievement in a story chapter before moving to the next, Champions chapter is a complete nightmare for me right now. This is where I’m up to in the story and this content is only a year old yet I can’t find any groups even during prime hours. Having to do each instance 5+ times is hell.

Yeah it’s done on purpose. For the last few years (except legendaries) all the weapons you can earn in game are bland and boring. It’s on the BL store or BL skins that are the really shiny and nicely designed ones.

I’m in silver rank and playing every game against teams in Platinum rank 😂 speaks for itself

I mean for the first time in a long time I’m completely avoiding a season of PvP. The fact scourge can tank most damage, heal most damage and then stack so much condi on you, you die in seconds. No class should be so god like that they can literally do everything.

I wanted it so I went for it. Took me 18 keys. Could have been much worse.

I thought 2 vs 2 would make skill a much bigger factor in win rate rather than lucky matchmaking so I was quite excited for it. My placement matches I fell in love with the mode with some really fun games and developing a good connection with your one partner. Then I got placed in Gold 3 and suddenly I’m coming up against double bunker pre made every single game. It’s a complete bore fest either fighting till the timer runs out if I’m lucky enough to get a bunker in my team or having a 100% unwinnable game if we are double damage vs their double bunker. I love the idea of the game mode so kudos to Anet for that but people have completely ruined it. So desperate to get a win that all life is sucked out of the mode to make it mind numbing.

I’m still going pretty strong tbh on my burn DH in G3, P1. I win most 1 on 1s. But yeah necros are simply another level at the moment. A decent scourge or reaper carries matches alone and I have seen them solo kill 3 players in a few games recently.

They are. And it’s not Anet. It’s Amazon. It’s an Amazon deal for Amazon America customers only.

HoT brought utility/defensive spec. PoF brought condi spec. I really hope EoD brings a strong power spec that can compete with the best in raids/fracs. For the weapon I’m in the majority when I say GS. It’s so much fun what they could do with it, like mist waves coming out when you swing. I also love some GS skins more than other weapons.

I really like this idea tbh. It can only be a positive thing. Obviously if you can’t vote for yourself.

Are we really calling garrisons housing? They most definitely weren't ? you could only go into others if grouped so removal of the social side of it 0 customization or anything If we get FFXIV style housing that would be massively successful for the playerbase which gw2 is built for really. As it provides alot of casual content. Wows garrisons were effectively a plot of land you couldn't do anything with. Had no options you were effectively playing the hero while roleplaying the NPC you find in average barracks as a side piece. I'd like to see proper housing in gw2 it's been a major win in every mmorpg going. It kept Windstar alive by itself for its life span and it's a huge thing in FFXIV... I'd imagine it would bring alot of players in if they do housing right. There's not a single big mmorpg with housing in from a western company currently. So it's a market that would defiantly make the game more popular. ESO is literally the biggest western mmo and has housing ? But yeah housing would bring a lot to Gw2 and would probably received the greatest reaction from the player base.

Rev is complete trash now. Even good revs I’m completely destroying in pvp. Nowhere near meta. Guard is still holding its own despite the nerfs. Still quite easy to play and decent results. Tbh necro is the only true meta class right now. It’s the only class that if not played well can still bring results. Guard, engi, ranger and SB warrior can all hold their own and are worth getting good on. Other classes are only worth it if you are super high skilled and know the profession perfect.

Absolutely dying for the Haunted Armor outfit right now! I would happily take Timekeeper outfit as back up!

So I came back to the game after a 2 year break mostly because I love Rev and I saw that it was now in the meta again for PvE and PvP. I already had a full legendary set and i love to be DPS so i went for a Viper condi build. This build is supposedly in the meta for raids. However I have been running fractals a lot recently and not had many problems but today a guy was running a DPS meter and being quite picky about it. He was telling me my DPS was poor. So on then next boss I went all out, I know my rotation and I performed it as best as I could. I ended up reaching 19k DPS whilst a holosmith in our group hit 30k DPS and a Scourge who was mostly in charge of healing ended up hitting 23k. For me I don't know what more I could have done to get my DPS up. Is Rev now too poor a DPS and simply just an alac support for groups?

Spoken like someone who isn’t very experienced in PvP. I’m carrying teams as hard as I can and if I can keep winning fights 1vs2 then i personally don’t deserve to lose that game or have it affect my record. I remind you I was Plat 1/2 in every season before I left and trying to push into the top 100 so ending up stuck here in Gold 1 is definitely not where I belong.
