yep they are insane cc stunlock annoying to deal with, i still see mostly staff to....like stuff gets nerfed and people think its unplayable, but in reality it's still strong lol, same with rifle heal mantra chrono still busted even after the nerfs.

I see way more condi reaper pistol/torch in this seasons meta than rangers, hardly see any soulbeasts anymore...they are not really in the current meta? When was the last time you played lol. Still see more staffbreaker/rifle mantra chronos post nerf, combined with power holos/heaps of condi reaper, and a bunch of rifle deadeyes.

Not true at all, power reaper axe/focus/gs is like a A tier roamer and spvp build, just higher skill cap, Nightfall prob one of the best defensives, basically a boon rip/well of darkness/blind and if your skilled you can pop people with gravedigger/death spiral when you play spite and take quickness trait. Just not a easy brain dead build like say condi reaper or harbinger. They have reworked GS like half dozen times since heart of thorns came out, it used to be way slower, the auto attack chain is the only annoying thing but hits like a truck, just mostly use to cleave in pvp. If they speed some of the attacks up even further, would be kinda busted. The actual damage is there, just most people in 2024 are used to power creep no effort let me spam 1 button mentality. and the pull is a skill shot, and very useful, should see what experienced necros can do with power reaper in pvp, both roaming and Spvp. I can think of more useless weapons in this game on other classes.

wow never had good pvp to start with. 2004-2009 open world pvp and arenas were decent, but current 2024 retail wow is a 100% pve game, all about dailies/mythic+ Classic wow community also hate pvp, just a pve game. They never even had a traditional RVR mode in the game.

That's the thing, there is no other game that has a world vs world/open world/rvr mode that's populated. We been game hopping or expecting other wvw games to come out since 2015ish, most of those projects got scrapped. We went to archage, to black desert online or awaiting camelot unchained (which wont come out) gw2 has pretty unique stuff mmo wise. World of warcraft is a pve game with limited dev support for pvp. gw2 wvw is the best thing on the market atm.

harb not that strong anymore, compared to last year. Scepter/dagger cele ele prob the best 1v1 build in wvw roaming atm

problem has been solved, they helped me was just a small bug, got my stuff back! yeah this account is from 2012 day 1 gw2, looks like I have everything back.

I appreciate the replies, will take advise, ty.

oh I know that could be a issue, but these are all exclusive dyes, that I've already owned in the past and used on older characters, even when I go to Dyes, over my cursor over the already dyed armor shows a lock key, some of those dyes back in the day cost a lot of gold. I will for sure ask customer service, ty for all the help, I just wasn't sure if a update may of caused problems, it's been since EOD came out that I last logged the game.

ty will try, even all the free dyes from b days that I recently claimed don't show up as owned, under exclusive dyes.

I have a 2012 account, I owned almost half of the exclusive dyes over the years, log in today and almost all of them are locked, I even have old characters with those dyes on their armor showing the lock key... how is this possible? I remember spending absurd amounts of gold on them.

majority of the team left around 2016, lost all the lead guys to Amazon Games.

expect more bugs like this if they are just pumping expansions out every year now, crazy they said no expansions ever again after POF lol

? cata been nerfed like 100 times since EOD.......it's not even listed as meta on metabattles, it's not even seen at high ranks.......see more necros than ele at high lvls....

You do understand BGs are not popular in world of warcraft right? You understand majority of the community in both classic wow and retail wow see's bgs as a choir to get gear for arena right? And you also know majority of battlegrounds in wow are bots and afk players, no one enjoys them in 2024....I highly doubt gw2 pvp player base would even play the game if you got rid of 5v5 conquest for wow style battlegrounds....sounds like an awful idea. I mean people even hated doing bgs back in 2008ish when they were using Honorbuddy to bot bgs for honor, because of how tedious and imbalanced they were...

wow has terrible balance, worse balance than gw2, and I'm someone that no-lifed competitive EU private wow arena servers and classic tbc/wotlk, and modern retail wow pvp has been forgotten and gutted in favor of "pve esport mythic+ raiding/5mans". Gw2 is pretty well rounded, don't have to worry about gear, easier to tweak things via amulets. What version of wow were you playing that was more balanced than gw2 lol, did you even get past 2500+ rating in arena in wow? it's completely imbalanced due to overpowered pve gear being used, and poor class design/comps, even professional world of warcraft x mlg players such as snutz, and chanimal etc etc say this. The only somewhat balanced mode in world of warcraft was 3v3 arena, about it. Rated Bgs were popular in cata, but in retail everyone avoids it. Arena net in the past has tried different game mode/bgs but they were not popular and removed..... you got world vs world for large scale, and small scale deathmatch world pvp roaming, you got 3v3 off season spvp in between 5v5 conquest, what else would you want? WSG capture the flag type game modes would be pretty difficult to implement in gw2, and pvp population is pretty low, been bleeding players for years.

In general on many different items, it's not hard to add a consume all feature in 2023, like others said one main reason people don't touch this game is the large amount of clicking/dealing with full bags, it's also not popular in path of exile. I don't want to click 80 times to lvl my alts with tomes, should be able to consume all/split stacks, pretty easy quality of life to add into the game. You would surprised how many people refuse to play gw2 just due to those factors alone.

Agreed, this is what world of warcraft retail suffers from, too much bloat, and gw2 hasn't even been out for half of WoW's duration. They can definitely prune lot of currencies that are pretty much obsolete or combine some of the older expansions currencies. We need more consume all features to on stackable consumes, like tomes of xp, still way to much mouse clicking in this game, almost as bad as poe lol.

It wouldn't be much of a review if you just deleted all negative posts and called them "trolls" lol, pretty sure that's not allowed anyways on most platforms. Have to show the positive and the negative reviews.

I dunno, I'm still pretty invincible on meta staff ele tempest healer in Spvp, got me into plat after the nerfs, death ratio is low still. I hardly feel the nerf in Spvp.

People need to stop complaining about stealth, it's not even that good. Thief is pretty terrible in 2023 now that every class has tons of protection/boonspam/aoe spam, all thief has is cheesy pistol pistol or rifle play, if you nerf stealth even further it will gut their only non cheesy builds like sword/dagger, and classic dagger/pistol.....it's a rogue class, stealth archetype get over it....we should have perma stealth and other classes stealth should be nerfed. Engi has better stealth know what happens to stealth classes like thief in high lvl world vs world roaming and Spvp? they get nuked by aoe spam and die, they need high stealth up time.....i can play my cele harb necro and use harb 5 and kill all stealth in 1 cc combo.....yeah we don't need to nerf thief stealth any further..... Thief can't even go near players and go toe to toe with them......they need stealth and mobility, legit gw2 is the only game where people cry about stealth mechanics....even WoW players don't complain about rogue and they have perma stealth...

i don't know any game that allows premade vs non premade in a competitive game mode, it's usually all solo q or all premade, insane.

Sadly the gaming industry is revolved around social media and streaming for their marketing/income; only reason world of warcraft even still has brand recognition even after 4-6 years of bad reviews and Blizzard in general falling apart....is the streamers/twitch/youtube/etc still advertises their games to millions of people across the normie demographics. Blizzard pays enormous amounts to people like asmongold/summit/shroud, even the cringy classic world of warcraft hardcore is only relevant because of streamers even though it's awful, it's only reason people still pay for bad products, they will buy anything they see their fav content creator buy. GW2 marketing is almost non existent, most mainstream demographics don't even know it's a game. Most of us pretty much been playing Guild wars since guild wars 1 back in like 2006. So it's been kinda just bleeding players and retaining veterans of the game.

There is a bunch of broken stuff in wvw, you can get cc'd into walls and get stuck or get into walls before they render and stuff that's been in the game since 2012.

? necro has more mobility than ever in modern gw2, before it was just a warlock with tons of dmg, terrormancer 2012 days. Harb has lot of mobility and reaper just presses 2 and gets swiftness after leaving shroud if you trait for it. necro historically brought insane amounts of dmg and boon strip before GW2 became power creeped with these expansions. Cele harb is prob the most broken wvw 1v1 class/roamer right now, mobility is not a issue and we have stab on demand lol.... and spvp we are teamfighters we don't need much mobility.
