That's not necessarily true. DX11 and DX9 both use your system's hardware differently. You might see performance increase one over another if your graphics card was much better where previously it might of only been CPU getting taxed. It is possible there is a bug there, but we would really need to see their hardware specs to know.

Damage across the board for vindicator feels terrible. Dodging to get the 15% buff is actually a dps loss because of how long it takes. Vindicator was supposed to be the rev power spec yet old sword/sword renegade does more dps by far.

GS skill 3 is only moving ~240 units. Says range is 900 with a cleave of 240, however the "Rush" part is not working.

I don't get that, you got the latest graphics drivers for your card? Might try restarting PC also.

Raging from a story boss?? Its a slight challenge but please, its not rage inducing. If you are hitting an hour on this fight then your DPS is wayyyyyy to low. You might want to consult metabattle and take a look at some open world builds for your class. The fight doesn't take more than a few minutes with a decent build.

This does indeed work.

With celestial you wouldn't be getting the most out of invigorating precision most likely to keep your health up. Celestial dagger/dagger thief can be effective at killing world bosses but IMO its easier to just go p/p with marauder and relying on invigorating precision to keep you alive. Though celestial scourge is a god in OW, not much it can't do. Just the way it is, can't all be the best.

Its not like the ANet partner streamers can't see the builds. Mighty Teapot shows players builds all the time during tournaments. Its also not hard to guess what their build is in PvP based on their class, skills used, weapons, etc. Also ANet can see the builds whenever they choose. People acting like builds are some super secret sauce 😛

Not sure what build your playing but as many mention it can make the difference, especially in the harder story content. Being casual doesn't equate to a game being easy. There are basics to learn (stun breaks, CC bars, class builds, dodging) that will make the content easier, but there is nothing wrong with a challenge.

I mean it sucks to get DCd in any game, but the story instances are what like ~20 minutes tops? If your frequently getting DCd you might want to do some troubleshooting there, but having it happen once shouldn't set someone off to the point of making a forum post.

Scourge, king of all. No explanation needed. If you don't believe it go to class forums and see what class they want nerfed 😉

Scourge in plague doctor and/or celestial makes it very easy with all the toughness and healing. Off the start place a flesh worm use sand swell and you can kite him through teleport and shields. Then when sand swell is out port to your work when he dives again. Then just run in a circle on outer edge, about this time he goes to the middle. Dodge the weapon throw he does or you basically lose. Then break CC with F4 fear and torch 5. Drop shroud and all your scepter skills to get him conditioned up. Then just kite and hit him with condi's, he should die before next phase.

Why are people debating content that was released over 2 years ago? Its even easier now days to get it than it was 2 years ago yet there are people who still complain. I don't understand how people can be like that lol

Its not that big of a deal they removed it to 99% of the players, though I'm sure those few that used it aren't happen. ANet did vaguely explain why in the patch notes, but we really don't know exactly how bad it was.

People to lazy to get skyscale complain about those who have it. Classic.

"Give an inch, take a mile" - that is all. (ANet giving earned QoL and players wanting it for basically no effort)

Yep the accidental leek of the beta equipment boxes confirms GS for rev. I know that makes me super excited. I am curious how ANet will respond to the mistaken addition of other class boxes though.

This guy doesn't understand fractal meta lol If you want to see the meta just go to LFG and see what they are asking for, 90% of groups want the meta comps. Also https://discretize.eu/ always has the meta.

P/P Deadeye, Shortbow Renegade, Scepter/Torch Scourge are all gods in solo play if built right. Scourge is probably the best, in trailblazer gear you can solo anything by facetanking it. Renegade is up there as well but has to kite some.. P/P deadeye is nice, its very mobile, heals itself, and gives itself boons. With marauder gear it solo most everything but does require kiting. Honestly, what class do you like? Anything can become super good in open world (and eventually other contents with right gear) Metabattle has openworld builds for you to review. You should play the style you like rather than what you think might be strongest.

Played this game for years, but same issue where I can't get two of the armor boxes to drop to complete this Achievement. Maybe I destroyed them years ago? No idea, but its unobtainable now.

Naw, snowcrows posted the numbers already in their discord. axe/t mirage its like a 5k dps loss on the top end for SH and TL. For staff mirage its like 8k dps loss for top end on SH/TL. So normal players will probably see less of a dps loss because they aren't hitting 50k benchmarks on those bosses. The nerf still sucks, basically in an 8 purple 2 blue squad on TL its like losing 1 player, but its still more dps than it was before miralac was a thing. EDIT: Guess it doesn't embed the picture 😞 just puts a link from the discord copy image. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/744584060319432714/875893138437341264/unknown.png Also: One day maybe mesmers can get patch notes have something other than nerfs 🙂

1. Everyone who runs this as a quickness boon support will 100% take the quickness elixir. 2. The healing amount is negligible since you heal from shroud. It gives you shroud points though to make up for it. 3. The elite again is massive amount of boons, boons in this game can change fight out comes. Also in pve it will be used for quickness boon support build. (also no one called plaguelands an absolute monster, its negligible dps increase)

Its a little early to be down and out.. at least wait for the warrior spec reveal before going on your anti-depressants.

Title - nerf a skill Description - no skill mentioned. Conclusion - rage topic with no meaning.

Lol at calling the class that nearly every high end group uses in their comp "bad." A good thief rarely ever dies, so contributes no points to enemy. A good thief decaps (sometimes captures) other points so much it causes the enemy to lose. A good thief +1's fights, rarely goes for the duels unless its finishing someone they wander across. Granted thief is a high skill class and if your bad you may find it terrible, but its not the class being bad, its the player.
