Ivaldi.5076

I use reWASD, action cam and a Xbox Elite 2 controller and I've been able to do all content in the game. Navigating the menu's is annoying but doable as well, I admit it takes more time though.

I forget these exist unless someone reminds me right before the dragon meta. I also have zero issue doing anything in the Cantha maps.

As title says, I experienced this in Dragonfall while I was playing last year as well. Is it an issue in every zone or just Heart of Thorn adjacent ones? Is there any actual fix for this, or is this just a persistent 4 year old bug?

I'm confused, you have now eliminated any DPS option from the 2nd row of Specter. It is effectively now a dead talent row.

Correct.

Rifle Deadeye will def hit that scratch, it has kind of a rough learning curve though, so don't feel bad if its a bit tough starting out.

VR is not anywhere near ready for mass market implementation, a lot of people don't even have enough room to set it up. Then there are the people who can't play VR with any movement because it makes them immediately vomit. Neither of these issues have been solved in the 6 or so years I've had a headset either and I don't think the investment into VR development will make sense financially until they do.

Really want the Jade Tech outfit to return. Or Black Lion Outfit Ticket that allows it to be selected.

Dare I ask what makes condi specter more selfish than power specter?

Still happening now in Dragonfall, weirdly didn't happen last time I played in 2020, but its happening constantly now.

Thanks, I appreciate the in-depth explanation. Guess I'll give it a whirl and see how it goes. Yeah one of the suggestions made in the original feedback thread suggested a pop up radial for targeting allies, which I thought would work well. Thanks again.

Anyone know if they have fixed the issues with Specter skills and Action Cam? I know it did not work in the two betas, but I have not played since EoD came out. Just wondering if it has been fixed so I can jump in and try it again. Thanks.

Did they ever fix specter to be playable with Action Camera?

Pretty much, only reason to bring Spectre is masochism.

For real. Its extremely disappointing.

They really do. I hope this abomination doesn't launch as is, I've never been so disappointed with a spec in any game I have played.

I agree a radial menu might work, but 'best lined up target' isn't really good enough, you need the actual target and a radial won't work for larger groups. Though I'm not sure curser targeting will work at all for action cam.

You honestly think the single target focus works well in raids and large group content?

I definitely disagree with that, the cast time on the wells definitely don't play like thief, the Action Cam issues entirely ruin the flow; you literally cannot use the dual attack skill frequently unless you turn off action cam and turn it back on constantly. All the shroud skills being interruptible are also not thief like. What part of the new class feels like thief to you? All you've listed is positioning. Maybe the single target focus? but I'd argue that just feels bad in general due to the GW2 UI.

Also have to add that the Scepter Human Male animations are just awful, absolutely atrocious. Male Asura look reasonable, but the human male ones are some of the worst out of place animations I've seen in this game and honestly others. The auto attack really needs a different animation. I'm still confused as to why the focus wasn't used instead, that way it could have just matched the Shadow Shroud animations. Edit: I am referring to the 'triple bonk' the final attack in the auto chain to be specific, which I think is also the Human Male 1h Axe auto chain.

After playing more of Specter, there really needs to be bindings for party members, or a pop up and drag menu for the single target support. Targeting with the mouse is just unrealistic in large scale chaotic content and feels bad even in small scale. Mouse over macros and such can work theoretically with the party UI but I don't think the GW2 UI has that functionality. Making it usable with Action Camera would also be a smart choice, as I know its been mentioned several times in the thread already, but a lot of people use Action Camera for enjoyment or due to physical issues and it is unfortunate that using it basically precludes us from playing the class.

Guess I will just gird my loins and hope it fixes it self. Thanks for the info.

As the title says, after basically any loading screen or cut scenes in Fractals my Action Camera turns off. I think it began happening with the patch, but only really noticed tonight. Anyone else having this issue?

Also confirming skill 3 does not work with action cam, basically at all. I can use 1 and 3 while hovering over a target with a mouse, but as soon as I turn action cam on, I just keep getting error messages saying I need a target. I'd also really like there to be a build that is DPS, condi or power; I do not care, but the dps seems extremely underwhelming so far. I am not sure why basically all of the specter traits are support based, why no variety?

Basically unplayable with Action Cam, which is the only way I can play games due to RSI these days. Honestly extremely disappointing as this was the class I was looking forward to the most, only to find I can't play it. Single targeting skills in this game is a mistake. Building a class around being with an ally is also a mistake, there needs to be a talent that switches the tether function to some sort of self buff so it has use when playing solo. So it is both unplayable for Action Cam and I also really don't see much use for its niche anywhere unless I'm duoing in open world which I don't even think you would need support for that. I don't really understand where this is supposed to be good.
