To buff core specs you need to buff the main mechanic that the elite specs traded off. just buffing traitlines without thought will only buff elite specs. Or give them a unique one that the other elite specs dont have. For examples: Buffing existing mechanics: Core rev needs something done in ancient echo and then have it synergize with traits better. For core warrior have the tier 3 burst scale better with traits for it to be more rewarding. Adding a new mechanic: Core thief and daredevil have the same exact steals, core mesmer and and mirage have the same exact shatters. Classes that have this need something different from another otherwise they will always be outshined by the elite spec unless we make 3 core traitlines broken enough that it can outshine an elite spec mechanic

He couldn't kill you 1v1 and had to run away to reset. So what... Hes gonna come back and lose again? (Sorry quoting someone who recently told me thief was bad)

Maybe thats the multi tiered joke. Its actually to bait out the clueless peepos

Why does this sound more like an ele or engi than a warrior?

Thank god you didnt end up in my matches

In unranked i might decide not to just cause its boring or if someone asks for duels. Only time I think it is bad mannered or trolly is when youre singling out a specific player all game doing it.

My favorite is when a q pops, cant see kitten and lose the duel. The q resets search cause of natural causes. Go back to duel, q pops again at a critical moment.

Its cause the vindi builds are a closely guarded craft secret! Their trade is passed down only by the hottest dudes from generation to generation. Its an exclusive club of soakin wet drip that anyone who uses the forums will never achieve. Sorry bud.

Yeah in unranked youre going to have a wide range of players who never pvpd before vs basement goblins who live and breathe nothing but pvp for years

I like the title of this post and agree. New players need something. All of these solutions you cooked up those are burnt to a crisp. The game either needs to redo its matchmaking, give better avenues of entry points for pvp (an example is a series of noob friendly games with other new players and bots when they enter pvp for the first time), and give more game modes in general. This is a dead horse though

I like what you're cookin

Hell nah brah. How bout I eat the popcorn for 0 gold and you watch?

I think some people forget fighting to win a node is different than just fighting on top of a node and hoping for the best. People also forget the game has 3 different nodes you can try to win with. You're not forced to win a very specific node unless its near the end of the game and it comes down to that node is the deciding factor of who wins or not

Yo goku when you gonna reveal your main?

No they dont. They did update the TOS recently. Which for the most part they can monitor things from you more when you run the game

I seen a rock dog. This is old AF

I think you missed my point. Its more credible to say something is much easier and forgiving when you also can compare it to your class' most meta spec that also fits the same role as spellbreaker. Otherwise i might as well say soulbeast is more forgiving ever since i swapped over from only playing a full glass core power mesmer.

What if you played a meta ele builds though? Would you do better than your home brewed ones?

Well most people trying out pvp are in unranked. I queue unranked either duo or solo most of the time. There are days that youll fight back to back plat groups for like an hour or 2 straight. I really cant see a world you would ever be able to convince casuals or less experienced players to stick around dealing with that. This is just one of the few problems too, that pvp doesn't keep its population. Its good to still see passionate people want the game they play to grow and thrive but, you're beating a dead horse at this point.

Sometimes ill use my DH or support on my team as "kite spots". If they die, well.. they die! 🙂

It was more of a cool little "did ya know?" Kind of thing. Youre right its too risky to do in a match. Terrain affects if its possible to do or not. And when it is the timing has to be perfect. Its like how people know you can do a double jump up that ledge in Coliseum to get into mid. But because of how hard and unreliable it is to land the jump, youll rarely see people do that cause youll most likely fail and get killed trying.

A properly timed jump will cause the skill to miss

Im surprised anyone keeps track of anything past top 10, let alone top 25

Yeah I was solo quing into plat 2 til the afkers happened. I guess its my fault for queuing at all.

They will either smurf or try to q dodge the ones in top 10 like a bunch of kitten
