The one to Rule.2593

We all had to slog through a learning phase, there's no getting around that if you want to eventually be competent at the bosses instead of just doing dps and putting mechanics on other people. That will work for a time, but eventually it's best to learn yourself.When I first started and killed vale guardian for the first time after a few weeks of trying to get it right, gorseval was a giant wall for me because i didn't know how to do a proper rotation, nothing else in the game at that point really forced me to push myself to get better. Raids are supposed to make people push themselves and grow as players. It's not about getting carried, it's about not needing to be. Yes there are mechanics that will take some time to nail down, and as pointed out above, there are various training discords and guilds all you have to do is look. But it comes down to how you like to spend your time. If you want to improve yourself, you'll do it, if not, then raids just maybe aren't for you.

also you know transfusion heals right? it's not only taken for saving downs. you brag about barrier application but the thing is " meta" heal scourge can do the same thing, only better as he can grant more barrier than you can and he can also heal more. Transfusion is really what makes heal necro shine and if you are not using it, you are shooting yourself in the foot. overall I give this build a 0/10

So recently I've done the same on my alt account. It has 1k AP, Had no LI or kp whatsoever. But I did have a proper build and proper gear. I literally cleared all hOT wings on it in a day. I have no clue how it took you 3 months. The point im making here is it is more important to know your build and class and be able to play it well. If you join as a dps but pull less than 10k chances are you'll get kicked. I find most people with this issue haven't spent any time practicing their rotations or are improperly geared and expect to get carried. how most of us got started was just getting a few friends together and throwing ourselves at the bosses sometimes for weeks until we learned. eventually things just start to click. Things go much smoother when you take the initiative, make your own group and learn together. It's more rewarding that way anyway. literally if you have no friends all you have to do is post in the lfg that you are making a new team, make a new static. Your life will be less stressful.

i just do it when im bored and have nothing else to do, what else am i gonna do once i've cleared my raids for the week.

Soul eater nerf will hardly change much i think. Also it's laughable that people still think reaper is not a good profession or that it is hard to stay competitive when reapers are almost always top dps in my groups and usually by a good margin. Yeah top guilds like SC won't use reaper, but they never did anyway. FOr any decent reaper this will be no big deal. As for how much experience with reaper I have in raids and fractals, it's my main class for both. Used reaper for the better part of 2 sets of legendary armor and the ring.

Honestly I think a big reason the living story releases don't last as well as they'd like is because a vast majority of players don't go for the endgame legendary trinkets which honestly extend the life of living story maps immensely. I feel like making the trinkets at the end of the seasons was the way it was meant to be done to hold you over until the next season.

It was impossible to pug raids with necro, dh, dps mesmer, dps ranger, rev after the nerf or basically anthing that wasn't considered meta like tempest or thief. Ye such great times back then.Dps meters exist for quite a long time now. It was just bgdm instead of arc back then. That's just flat out wrong. No it wasnt, cries in dh and reaper post nerfyou really gonna try to say that only theif and ele were taken for dps? It's wrong. and you're wrong.

I actually raid fairly often. I have both the legendary armor and the ring. I do tend to agree that raiding was much better before meters and when everyone didn't care so much about getting 30k dps. Since meters became pretty mainstream this sort of behavior is not uncommon and people who say it doesnt happen are either lying, or don't pug often.

Oof. That's 3 am my time or id be interested lol

0/10 they are the worst I have ever seen with it.

I like the combat system a lot but yeah game mode has zero support from devs.

lol that'd require devs to actually care.

Sure, as long as you nerf firebrand or engi sustain otherwise nothing will be able to kill them

Honestly I always bring power reaper or condi scourge and while not meta i find myself at top dps a lot of the time. It's so much more important to play a class that you like and are familar with rather than " what's best" The only time I really swap to anything else is mirage for largos cuz shit is broken.

it'll just be 3 dps golems again who cares.

The entire wing was easy in general. I love how qadim got nerfed from w6 lol

I feel like people saying its not worth it are people that don't have it. It's like a combination of every mount and the only one you will ever need once you get all the masteries for it.

honestly i doubt they'll do one at this point. I'm so over arena net and their mismanagement and delays.
