if you want to find out if a class is good in pvp, you simply look here:   Memebattle.com

There is no need for you to test if things like renegade or mechanist are good in pvp.... they are not. 

Gw2 balancing is literaly cyclical.  

Check for whats ontop, and then learn that build if you want to be good.

Or play what you enjoy most, and just be aware that, you are fighting a uphill battle. 

Knowing this helps with keeping your sanity intact while playing GW2 PvP.

That doesn't tell me if I'll enjoy playing it, there's a reason why experience is better than theory.

I'd have to take your word for it, they are not something that's ever taken my interest.

Again, I'll take your word for it. Filthy dirty casual here.

No. I'd rather play something I enjoy and learn its ins and outs than take the FOTM build to win my games.

I like underdogs, I love nothing more than watching an underdog come out on top over the FOTM because they've taken the time and effort to know and the hard work that goes into it. That's not to say that if you're a fan of FOTM then you shouldn't play it. It's not for me. Who am I to tell you how to enjoy your game?

At the end of the day, GW2 is a game and as such it should be enjoyable, if it's not, then why continue?

What do you want to level the class for?

If you just want to test a few skills, and see if you like the feel of the class, there is bots in the pvp lobby, that you can fight.

I meant it in terms of "Do I want to use this class as my sole PVP player?"

Bots I agree allow you to do that, but they don't teach you how to react, unlike facing a player who could do something unexpected.

the best tip i can give you:   Stop caring about loosing or winning.    see every pvp match just as   " you get to fight 5 random enemys"     thats it.

You just need to claw your way thru it.

That's hard when you're spawn-camped. It was never about winning or losing for me personally (I can't say the same for other members of my teams last night) I wanted to gauge a new build/class to see if I wanted to level it etc etc.

It would have been nice to at least get out of the starting area with one shots.

[You wonder why new PVP players wont stick around when its just full of premades]

I honestly don't know what the solution would be, I was just ranting as a new player in PVP (in GW2) it hardly seems fair that I would have to face a premade team in an unranked game which I've joined to learn more about another class/build.

I do think that removing any rewards in unranked may deter "noob farm teams", unless like I already said it's an ego thing, in which case you need to find something better to do with your time. All you'll end up doing is making the new players quit, then what will you do when you, yourself face teams that stomp on you 5 games in a row? I promise you, you're not going to like/enjoy it.

[You wonder why new PVP players wont stick around when its just full of premades]

Title says it all really. I don't mind going up against premade if it's ranked, I kinda expect it but, unranked? Really? Is that how you show off how good you are coming up against new PVP players? Or, is this some kind of ego boost that I and my last three team members are unaware of? I mean... you whine that the game is dead, I make no wonder when that happens to new players.

My last three teams all said the same thing. Must tell you or Arenanet something is not right here?

Inventory management is a key skill to learn in GW2 for a good reason. 

My heart goes to all the people without like 400+ inventory space. 

 

I wish that was the issue. It's about how many times a chest will contain three more boxes to open, rather than just having the original chest give it all pre-opened in one go, so I don't have to keep opening box after box.

[Change the loot boxes please]

The number of times I open a chest to find two or three more boxes inside that, just give utter crap is unbelievable! Please just give me the one box that contains all the crap that the three other boxes inside contain in the original chest. It's really starting to grind my gears to find one chest that has two to three more boxes that contain the same junk, why not just have the original box just give me it all in one go?!

I've been salvaging rare with rare salvage kits. Its hit and miss but I've managed to get a fair few so far.

Thank you, that was helpful. It's a shame that I couldn't continue from where I left off without going back to toon 1. Oh well not to worry, I'll just push through it again.

[Jump to specific chapters hidden by "..."]

Hi,

Pictures tell a thousand words so I'm going to use them to help explain the question I asked in my current guild and got an idiot replying (Yes, you Lord Remize. You arrogant git) rather than trying to be helpful, tried to be insultful.

Anyway, enough of the rant. Let us take the following scenario I've done up to a specific chapter in SOTO on another toon and found I didn't enjoy the experience with said toon, so I did what most would do, I have an alt, that I wanted to try to continue the story with. I asked a simple question if I've got to X chapter in SOTO with X toon (all my toons are the same race) is it possible to jump to the chapter that I stopped at on toon 1? I was rightly told to open the story journal. The issue lies in that when I open the story journal on toon two I often see 3. Mother of Stars followed by "..." (see picture titled SOTO story journal below) then jumps to 11. Duress. It so happens that I changed to an alt while doing a chapter that's hidden under said "...", how would I go about expanding that section as seen in the image? I find the story up to and including opening the Wizards Tower tedious! And I've done it four times now. I honestly can say,  that I really don't enjoy doing it. I'd like to continue the SOTO story but, jump to where I left toon 1.
