    @ProverbsofHell.2307 said:Greatsword F1 is a slow, highly telegraphed skill that can only be landed in 130 range. Warrior is one of the only classes stuck at 130 range to do any damage and also has clunky and buggy mobility skills. 9k is fine.

    9k is fine? thats more than half the hp for 90% of the classes atm in 1 shot. and not like its hard to land with the cc warrior has acces to. from a holo perspective my hardest hitting skill is prime light beam that crits for 7.5k, thats a 60 sec cd ELITE skill vs 1 adrenaline burst 8 sec cd skill xD

    dmg is fine, nothing to see here /o/

    It's a burst skill. Is it so hard to dodge, use your own skills, kite, etc? You say Warrior has CC and that's true. So if you also failed to dodge this or avoid it, ok, so this is where you use stunbreak. If all that failed, yeah, you get hit for 9k. Only half hp, really not that much for a burst skill delivered by a zerk amulet spellbreaker at high might stacks (cause that's what arcing slice would need to do that damage). It's not like you don't have a heal you can use or mobility. I don't get the complaint tbh.

    What about necros? we lack ways to avoid dmg and have limited evades no invulns few teleports and you actually have to place it, and our gap closers are kinda trash too.

    9k is a lot of dmg to a class with some toughness I agree with that, 15 to 20k is way too much. In fact: Damage and sustain is so crazy and out of control, that necro underperforms, and other classes too probably due to the ridiculous nature of power creep.

    You warrior guys have a 60k rifle shot and can do 9k or more with your weapons plus you got power crept mobility cc and sustain.

    Time to nerf everyone down to like 5 or 6k dmg so it isn't one-shot anymore.

    yeah necros are soooo weak they could never do 14k with just axe 2 and like 3 might.

    dont forget the speed rune in combat movespeed and the 2 ports.

    this abominable dh player is spotted again.

    it is now known who is ACTUALLY behind these projected changes all in an effort to bring this heinous monster up from the depths where it rightfully belongs.

    question not the motives of a person who plays dh for they are always focused solely to their own benefit!

    You don't need to -just- dodge everything. You can block, invuln, use a skill with an evade, blind, immob, interrupt with daze or cc, move out of the way with a port or attack from range on almost every class to date.If a warrior is close enough to you to land anything on you that isnt a gap closer, and are currently attacking you, you're disadvantaged. If you don't dodge a gap closer that hits you for a lot, you're disadvantaged.Play the game and evade the telegraphed things. Wars can't burst you from stealth or instantly port to you, so you have just as much information of that whole battle situation as that warrior, if not more than them. Let them have the big damage for getting near you and getting hits in. Otherwise they're just going to be objectively worse than the classes who have just as much damage output but can do it from 1200 range or stealth.

    I was so stupid to think that it wasn t worth it to dodge some one else's dodge.

    Also what killed you was the Arcing Slice into two GS auto attacks for a total of 8,000~ or so damage. The dodges weren't what killed you.I was already in downed state when those 8k happened.@KryTiKaL.3125 said:

    If a Warrior is dumping their dodges for the purpose of doing damage...you're the one playing bad for not taking advantage of that and either disengaging or using another tool to counter that Warrior being a kitten.Disengage and loose the node. Great idea yeah. How do you counter an unblocable attack as a melee class???

    imagine having to get off the node and utilize the map terrain to ur advantage, imagine it being a problem that u cant stand stationary and just face tank everything.

    "It's easy to play, requires no effort and causes toxic chat messages and makes the pvp super unfun."Feel free to post a game of you on warrior to demonstrate how simple it is.

    Because it cant block immune your attacks and is very very easy to shut down.

    there are plenty of block piercing skills in the game, and warrior is also easily shut down, blind, block, weakness, invulns, evade frames, etc.

    warrior is beaten by playing the match up smarter and not allowing urself to greed.

    reaper avoids ur attacks by using speed runes, ports, and positioning, along with ample chill and corrupts. people just dont like the idea that they have to actually play the match up against warriors.

    I love how warrior requires you to do the same instead of just pressing your skills.

    i mightve agreed that warrior did too much damage the patch where tactics had 50% modifier and pre nerf rampage, thats no longer the case.

    if warrior is such an issue for u and u just want to mindlessly spam buttons play mender or sage firebrand with blind/weakness spam mantra.

    dont be so surprised when a warrior or spellbreaker who is playing properly beats u when ur "just pressing ur skills."

    @The Ace.9105 said:I could record tons of footage of how stupid warrior damage is and explain the matchup where if you get hit once vs the warrior you are just dead even with it's "telegraphed" animations (which btw get faster and slower with quickness/slow and get hit once and say bye) while the warrior just runs around dodging with attacks that crit you for 7-10k with 25 might and 4k without might. Dodging the matchup is also impossible in a long run since if you do the math the warrior has a cc skill on the meta build every 3s in combat and that's just cc skills without the other high hitting skills so you'd have to dodge more. The build works pretty decently against any other class so that you don't just get 1 shotted by stuff but if there's a warrior in the team fight and it hits you you are done for like in the picture.

    But, this thread is not about how stupid warrior is. Stupid also doesn't mean that it's op in a 5v5 setting.

    This thread is about how no class should hit casual skills like rush 4.3k and dodge rolls 2.5k (the trait is a joke) to a heavy armor class with 900 toughness and defensive traits.

    How are you going to dismiss attacks being telegraphed? That's like dismissing sound cues as useless. I'm sorry man but if you are getting pegged by rush then idk what to tell you. Just because you're heavy armor doesn't mean your tanky. Warriors can build squishy, ele can build tanky. It's all due to traits and stats.

    On warrior before full counter nerf there was no frames to deal damage to warrior and fc got nerfed a bit. The fact that there's still a pretty tiny window to do anything against a warrior remains. By casual skills I mean skills that are not really different/flashy special skills that are meant to do huge damage and you can use pretty frequently like throw axe and rush.

    Again, not complaining about skills in general, what I am talking about is the damage being too high on warrior.

    spellbreaker and warrior are 2 different things, unless ur going against a meme ur not fighting throw axe and fc at the same time. there are plentiful openings to hit warriors, specifically due to the nature of the telegraphed skills, the same cannot be said for multiple classes who are hitting much harder much more often.

  7. I couldn't really care less about swiss, but I totally agree on the 2's and 3's queue and partnership programs.

    It really escapes me why the devs of this game are ALLERGIC to giving it proper visibility and support. It feels like they begrudgingly give out partnerships, if at all (which has zero cost to them and only fosters a better and larger community, and in some cases actually generates $ for them).

    (#PartnerVallun)

    Not only does Vallun have the following and viewership that would make use of a partnership, he plays all 3 game modes, has one of the highest AP in the entire game, and would be a fun alternative caster to "the Jebro" for the NA monthly mAT. Why is arena net against rewarding players that put effort into their game?

    It may be an unpopular opinion but I simply do not care; Jebro doesn't even know who's playing in the finals while he is "casting" it, and I use that term extremely loosely as half of the finals matches are staring into the ground or watching some one leave spawn (as demonstrated in the last 3) and is one of if not the only option to watch for the NA mAT. Allow more people who stream your game to grow their streams @Anet, it is a win/win.

    What does it take for the devs to speak? How hard is it to come on the forums, or reddit, or in twitch streams and actually talk about stuff? Are you going to try to convince me that every one's lives are too consumed, enveloped and fully scheduled with zero down time to have the ability to do that? I call bullshit, it's obvious to any one with a brain that it's because there is a genuine disinterest. How is it a good idea for a company to remain silent to its audience and player base? Imagine if you owned a company and were silent to your shareholders, it's just a horrible take.

    Imagine if the pvp devs showed up on the guildwars 2 official twitch and actually spoke to any of the pvp community instead of just watching people backpedal in pve and wvw. Imagine for a second, if the company actually wanted to engage its community in a way other than surface level fake positivity and "inclusiveness."

    You never see them coming to the forums asking for ridiculous nerfs/buffs to classes. They actually spend time in game learning mechanics and getting better.

    If the vast majority of players on this subforum did that then maybe ranked wouldn't be filled with RP builds and just bad play.

    No instead they rage about it on their streams, "degenerate" this "monkey" that, constantly, all stream, every time they stream. If you want to see something interesting, pay attention to what they cry and rage about and the balance changes that come out, then for something even more interesting, pay attention to the terminology the devs use in their official balance notes eg. "degenerate" etc.

    It's plainly obvious to any one paying attention, but funnily enough if you post about the REAL kitten, ur posts are deleted like flandre's. Reddit doesn't have that problem though.

    Flandre is a meme who can't control her emotions when posting. Flaming Ben and others does no one any good.

    weak argument. can character assassinate as much as u want, still a multi monthly AT winner who knows whats going on "behind the scenes."

    @"Tycura.1982" said:I've been asking for this for a good while now. Honestly? Good riddance. Warrior has great elites that were overshadowed by rampage for too long.

    Yeah signet is definitely on par with things like Prime Light Beam, Chilled to the bone, Dagger Storm, Mass Invis, Shiro/Glint elites, Renewed Focus, Strength of the Pack, Weave Self, FGS, etc.

    That redundant 5 might/fury/swiftness really utilizes that elite slot well.

    Bubble also is so good that people use any movement ability in the game, or dodge 1 time, and are outside of its effect.

    Yeah warrior elites are top tier.

    Tantrum needed a nerf, lets not pretend like warrior elites are "great" though.

    Yes let's compare the worst warrior elite to the best elite of every other profession. What you should be doing instead is comparing the best warrior elite (rampage) to the best that every other class has to offer. Pre-nerf rampage put every single elite you mentioned here to shame. Everyone would love to have it available to their class. At the end of the day, every single profession has bad elites. Some simply have no good options at all, while others have only one that is insanely good. Others have a variety of not so bad options.

    Are you sure those are the best elites from every class? Breach, AoE Stab mantra, elixir X (now also nerfed), one wolf pack, Jaunt, Basi Venom, Mallyx/Jalis elites, again either Weave Self of FGS, are all ALSO better than signet or bubble, banner is such a meme its not even worth acknowledging exists and would be absolutely useless on a class that is side noding.

    Like I already said, Tantrum needed a nerf, but do NOT pretend like warrior elites are in any way comparable to the other classes, because it is demonstrably false. The reason why Tantrum was taken was because there is NO other option. You should be able to understand this because even after it's damage coefficients were reduced to 0.01 making 3/5 of it's skills crit for under 100 damage at max might (warrior's elite skill "Rampage" now has the lowest damage coefficients in the game; and as for continuity sake, it's a joke and a prime example of how impossible it is for the dev team to understand and manage their own game), IT'S STILL TAKEN.

    Pre-nerf Rampage did NOT put every other elite to shame and I would absolutely LOVE to hear which professions have no good option of elite.

    Hello please remember that at the bottom of the OP I say, "Please don't say anything unless you agree with me."

    Saying that raises validation issues as you are actively trying to avoid. I have read it and like yourself, I choose to ignore a request. Welcome to the forums mate.

    I asked you politely twice now not to say anything unless you agree with me and this study, if you would like to do your own research pls do.

    @"RisenHowl.2419" said:Let me preface this by saying yes, i understand it's a meme build. It's easy to kill when you have invuln for the initial burst. Just Dodge. Only bad players die against power mes. Bring a reveal. Watch the minimap. etc.

    GW2 pvp player population is at an all time low, imagine someone starting out in pvp running into this. Why on earth would they come back?

    what makes you think that starting player will face players that can pull this off?you ran into 5man premade, they could play kitten like 5x holo and steamroll you harder, exept you wouldnt even be able to fight back becouse the 1-2 skills you would somehow manage to land would deal 15% of their hp instead of 40%.you kept running out of spawn into 3 of them repeatedly instead of leaving with team what did you expect?TBH if you played it properly you could actually win the game.Ah not to mention they propably were communicating unlike your team. Sometimes its better to coordinate instead of complaining yes?

    They weren't talking about any of that; they were specifically talking about the burst they could do nothing about once it was in motion. Which they have a point, how is that type of attack (and player behavior) going to entice people into the game mode? Last time I checked.. PvP wasn't doing too good, perhaps a large portion of the blame can be placed squarely on the players that run those types of builds.

    no, players using builds available to them is not the reason, nor is their responsibility to not play strong builds.

    the reason why pvp is in a poor state is years of poor management by the developers of the game.

  14. @"Dantheman.3589" said:As some one who has absolutely spammed ranked matches all season, even with terrible internet at a point I can ppl there is a huge difference in this and actual try Harding. If I actually decided to stop when I reach a decent rating then yeah my rating would probably be pretty high but I have about 400 matches played and I didn’t even play for the first week and still half solo have duo my rating commonly gets to top ten level though can go as far down as plat1. So how is it unethical if I actually plan a duo and try hard at end of season to actually end top ten. I’m not win trading to do this I’m just taking my rating serious for once again I played about 400 games mostly solo playing w.e I want for fun and was still top 10-20 level much of the time it seems if I actually try hard and plan to save my rating instead of playing 100 more that I can ethically reach top ten?I do hate how some ppl go on alts and win trade but I’ve seen these people play and they often get out of practice and end up playing poorly and we all know it. So over time even if anet doesn’t punish them they often still lose so what’s the problem. Still ban wintraders and try to reward good play.

    Because that's not what goes on. These people aren't just "saving their rating" they are exploiting the matchmaker by sync queuing into their friends at lowest population times, and even on stream. It's done in a way that getting "evidence or proof" is beyond the scope of a party not privy to the same data that the devs have. Devs can do things like check IPs, they can look up the games that are played off stream, they can look at chat logs (in game), etc. There are such things as private discord servers and calls that prohibit the eyes of devs from seeing what goes on. It's been going on for years, what in the world would actually make people believe that it has magically stopped.

    I have no problem with people playing minimum games to keep their rating high, that is smart play, what I have a problem with is people gaming the system and routinely getting away with it because the developers of this game very obviously have no interest in the integrity of their game.

    Hello please remember that at the bottom of the OP I say, "Please don't say anything unless you agree with me."

  16. I think it's pretty obvious and simple as far as the lengths the "top players" (LOL) will go to reach their desired ratings.

    In what game any where are there legitimate 90-95%+ win rates at the end of a season? hmmmmm

    maybe if arenanet devs took the time to actually play their game once in a while they would see and understand how very simple it is to see these oddities, and since they are the ones with the power to, check them out.

    it shouldnt require a court case for 140-8 and the like to be checked on.

    The best part to me is, they do it on stream, right in front of every one and still there are people who just blindly accept that its not happening because some "known" name is telling them that and they think defending these people some how gets them in good favor, real OMEGALUL.

    Funny how when people are "just memeing" etc their win rates and rating resemble or are lower than pretty much every top 50-100 player despite still duoq and tryharding, but for some reason previously their ratings were 200-300 (entire divisions) higher. So what's the real deal hmmmm?

  17. Based on numerous studies done by Harvard, Princeton, and NYU, I have gathered a comprehensive list of player power ranging all NA, EU, and Chinese servers. I have combined this list using my own personal experience playing pvp 18 hours a day every single day and have achieved 92% accuracy.

    Avoiding damage/cc while immobilized (Evade Frames):
    • Daggerstorm

    Disengaging while immobilized:
    • Infiltrator's Arrow
    • Infiltrator's Strike/Return
    • Cloack and Dagger + Steal
    • Flanking Strike + Steal

    //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

    The question is more what can you not do?

    Learn to recognize the sword 3 cast as there will be a huge delay inbetween the clone spawns and they activate the second cast - simply dodging at any point here will either negate the clone ever spawning if too early, or they will waste their burst if done at the right time - 95% of mesmers won't cast sword 3 without immediately popping the swap since it's a significant setup skill you can't chance with.

    Even if you mistime it and get immobilized, you can instantly start to spam either the evade frames listed or any skill that removes conditions in order to let you dodge the daze application - it's simply muscle memory, the faster you are the easier it will be to remove the cause of the root before other conditions cover it.

    And if they daze first, well then it will be over by the time the immob comes so just cleanse and keep going - a good rule of thumb is to spam evadeframes here until the dazes are spent and then clear the immob.

    Other useful things are of course to use non-port spots, line of sight hindrance and to engage with an Infiltrator's Strike. Always steal after 2 consecutive dodges in order to get the glob, and that will allow you a much easier time against both the dazes and immobilizes - sword 2 out, chug it uninterrupted, then sword 2 back in.

    I guess u didn't understand the part where all my skills and utilities were on forced cd and not useable- as mentioned 4x or more so far in thread.But thanks for the cleanse/stunbreak list.

    You misplayed by blowing all your defensive cooldowns and remaining in the fight. That isn't a problem with mesmer.

    I literally dropped into arena and jumped through smoke screen than backstabbed the mirage he than imobilizesd me,stunned me and all my utilities were counting down therefore not useable and no I did not blow my CD's prior and whether or not this is possible it has happened to me more than once and yea I've played this game close to 5 yrs now and know what I. Looking at. Thanks for the info everyone.

    you can steal while cc'd and immob'd. nothing in a mesmer kit prevents steal or shadowstep from being used.

    so either you have no stunbreaks on ur bar and deserve to be 1 shot, or you were extremely slow to respond to the sword3 (dodge/clear immob with signet/shadowstep/roll for initiative, there are numerous ways to avoid the burst following the immob or the immob all together).

    Been playing since beta btw, not sure how that matter tho.
