  1. Working as intended. Mesmer loses the ability to perform a typical dodge when becoming a Mirage. No physical movement occurs. Rather, you get a short window of evade frames and a speed boost. This unique effect works in conjunction with some of the traits Mirage has.
  2. Yes. The game remembers what the original, base item is when you skin swap, so you're fine. However, changing an item via the Mystic Forge yields a completely new item.
  3. I concur with the addition of more Sylvari armor... period. And, no. Not outfits. Armor.
  4. Considering every race is just recycled ideas anyway... Human has an unfair advantage in this due to having four games and two expansions to go off of, on top of being alien to the world they occupy, suggesting even more lore back wherever they came from. So they take my vote only by sheer amount and not necessarily intrigue.
  5. Now, I'm not in the business of insulting people over their online opinions. Frankly, I find it to be a waste of energy, and I've grown out of it pretty much. But did you not imply that you were using a Condi Scourge build in Swampland? Myself and @Hannelore.8153 told you why that wasn't effective, and you are already aware of a better alternative. This is a game where everything can do everything (except alacrity) where design makes them more befitting or less befitting based on any number of factors. Sure, Reaper brings lower DPS, although decent burst, at higher levels; but it's offset by its exceptional reliability. You have to TRY to mess its rotation up, and even when things go south, it is by default one of the more sturdy professions in the game. Is it the most effective tactic available? No. But it certainly gets the job done as a DPS role, and many groups are accepting of it outside of speedrunners and jack kitten enslaved to the dictation of the highest numbers achieved on a website. Now if you're still wanting to just hear from a developer, an email is the way to do it. Posting on the public forum will only draw public ire. Whatever you said.Anyways I have multiple builds but as you know and everyone else knowsNone of these builds stand any chance. Why can’t you just accept this fact I don’t understandNecro is piece of hot garbage in fractals and literally the necromancer doesn’t have a single aspect where they can be used over any class that share the same mechanism with. I respect your opinion and as I said before I don’t want any class to get nerfed (im talking about mesmers,guardians,thieves,warriors)All I wanted is to have similar meta shiit that necro can not only be accepted but to be a key with some kind of rule. Is that too much to ask? If I showed you how many messages I have between me and the devs and how many times they banned me you will be in shockI quit before for that reason and i thought things have changed after two good yearsBut it’s worse than before. At least we had our (single skill that made us kind of valuable in epidemic)Now it’s straight up hot garbageWell then, apology accepted. :p The response given to you was mainly to go against the argument of necro being unviable at the high end, which isnt true. I was never arguing against their lack of a niche in PvE. Except for ... maybe barrier spam. However, unfortunate to say, but you may as well quit again, as the strengths of your favorite class aren't applicable to high end PvE by (inconsiderate) design. The things necro is absolutely the best at is debuffing, and every encounter that might pose a threat is immune to said debuffs. And since there is no alternate way to deal with something other than to kill it as fast as possible, necro suffers. This is something I mentioned in the past myself, in that all abilities should be useful on all mobs, bosses, etc.; and if that leads to them being overpowered, then adjust the encounter to compensate. Either by way of more mobs, enemy cleansing skills (that can be interrupted and thus encourages timely interrupts instead of just draining a blue bar), better AI, whatever. Heck, even if those skills worked while said bar was orange/ recharging, that'd be an improvement! World bosses and similar would be a necessary exception to this. But, nope. Seems like we're stuck with what we've got. Now, these tools are highly effective in competitive play, but outside of that... yeah. :(

  7. The developers do not determine the meta. For fractals, due to many trash mobs as well as bosses that tend to have invulnerability phases and the like, power damage is preferred and more optimal. It appears your group had no issue with you running Condi Scourge though, and you're free to run whatever you wish within the mutual agreement/ acceptance of a party, but a group knowing what to bring and what works best for their environment isn't a design issue. Nothing stopped you from going Power Reaper in this situation; it just seemed like your preference not to. And there's no harm in that. Deflecting blame towards the developers in this instance, however, is erroneous. I hope this clears up things for you. Heck, even I run substandard stuff all the time for the sake of mixing things up or to accommodate for a group's shortcomings, but they wont ever be as good as an entire group who've put together optimal synergy.
  8. They all feel around the same length to me, if that's what you're meaning, with Deepstone only slightly longer due to the pit. But if you mean design, I would have to hard disagree.
  9. https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/categories/game-release-notes Happy searching!
  10. Context needed. Best at what, as all races play the same? Or are you just messing around with such an overdone poll? :(
  11. The only part of Deepstone that bothers me is the part where the boss teleports away and puts on the beam attack merely because I'm never a fan of unavoidable/ cheap damage in any form. Otherwise, Deepstone is fine in my opinion.
  12. Part of it is a matter of personal opinion. But the other part is just one of the most common depictions in nearly every media production ever. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MenAreStrongWomenArePretty At any rate, a Total Makeover Kit may be useful to you for expanding facial options, though I feel we're long overdue for a kit update across ALL races.
  13. Requesting a mechanical or golem-esque beetle skin, befitting of those of superior intellect! Oh... and non-asura could make use of it as well.
  14. If it's an espec, I'll play it! I'm rather uncomplicated. It's just more toys to mess with in the end.
  15. Patience!! Patience, my love! https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/discussion/107604/game-update-notes-june-9-2020#latest

  17. It works perfectly for my nightmare themed Sylvari. Now we just need a mechanical or golem-esque beetle mount for the Asura. :p
  18. Oh... my. And I literally just requested for at least a Sylvari-themed jackal mount not even a week ago. Then I see this nightmarish beauty! <3 Anet!
  19. I think this is intended. It is a visual indicator for your enemy in PvP "this guy is merged with his pet now".You can actually be glad, that is way more subtle than the indicator for holosmith's photonforge. Yeah, I'm aware. Granted, holosmith's effect seems like a bigger deal for the opponent to know than Soulbeast. It's akin to Reaper Shroud in that you know a sudden shift into dangerous skills has now happened. Soulbeast gets a few skills and stat boosts, and you can otherwise tell that their pet is missing. Maybe it's more of a benefit for really hectic fights.
  20. I've made two Rangers so far that have been able to fit around the color scheme of the green cloud. My issue is that said cloud seems a bit too... large. If only it were a bit more subtle. I mean, I'm not too fond of the color myself, but every class has its unique ability colors. This one just happens to be so very dominating.
  21. I use all of them quite regularly except for Jackal and Warclaw.
  22. Haven't seen any Sylvari-themed mounts in my recent wardrobe curiosity search. How about a big ol' Fern Dog skin for the Jackal?
