  1. It's literally now a 2 second stealth on a 45 second cd....as an ULTIMATE!?

    They removed the part that made it unique, that is, you could bypass revealed to get back into stealth.

    Dude...does this talent tree have anything left...lowest damage in the game, no utility....if you didn't want anyone playing DE you could have just removed it lol.

  2. For the most part everyone has just given up and just plays GW2 casually at this point.

    It has become a well known casual MMO where people save their competitive side for other MMO's like WoW Arena, or even outside the MMO genre all together.

    Their PvP from GW1 is so far gone it just doesn't seem like this GW2 team will ever get it, so why bother anymore.

    How is this considered alright?

    A move that takes our class skill (steal), the use of four additional moves to stack Malice, and a stealth entry just to setup.....

    This is in WvW with full Ascended/Legendary Zerker with all infusions maxed out in power, all consumables (Food/Tech). This is as strong as it gets minus might stacks....and it hits for 1300 (2700) w/ full malice.....

    My Ranger Lonbow Auto attack is 1250...just for comparison. And my ranger Rapid Fire Sic'Em OWP which is all of 0.5 second steup and 3 button presses hits for around 50k unblockable......

    The entire Deadeye talent tree has been brought in line (balanced) to be as strong as other classes auto attacks lol.

    Really sucks because I enjoyed DE...but it literally does the least damage in the game now. It's not even repped on Snowcrows anymore aside from D/D....which isn't really DE, they are just using it to give Backstab Malice lol.

    No wonder no one plays this games PvP anymore...no clue how to balance and 10 years of people requesting downed state be removed from SPvP and WvW just to fall on deaf ears....

    I guess they are reaping what they sowed now though with that last profit report....you get what you deserve in the end......

  4. Came back from a break...

    My current DJ in PvP is critting for 8k with fully stacked malice and might....

    My no setup Sic'em rapid fire is hitting for 15k alone.....25k with OWP....

    Is Deadeye just a dead spec now?

  5. I wanted to try a trapper ranger build, but it seems like it's not supposed to be in PvP.....

    The damage in Open World is about 10k bleed damage over 9 seconds.

    However, in PvP it drops to 120 damage?.......

    Why? lol

    Defiantly not a casual. I just hate the negativity on these forums. Here is a thought. YOU make a MMO that is everything YOU want it to be.

    Don't need to...that's what money is for.

    And that's why people talk with their money and we have sub based MMO's with 2.8 Million unique logins a day like FF14 while GW2 struggles to break 50k with a free model.

    One is doing it right, the other isn't...it's as simple as that....

    Why dont you just quit the game? If you are unhappy with anything they put into the game why play it? Do you just like to complain? Just quit. Seriously. Just stop logging in.

    Great stance...

    Instead of holding Anet to the same regard as other MMO's, if you don't like their sub par content, just quit for an MMO that has better.

    Which most have done....which is why we are showing as not even in the top 10 for raw numbers of site visits in current western MMO's.

    But just quit if you don't like it...then when another 10,000 take your advice they can look at the already hanging on by a thread numbers that are now running in the red because more quit.

    Then we can halt any further production and put GW2 on maintenance mode....and in a year or two just shut the servers down because NC is known for cutting MMO's that don't produce a profit.

    So instead of listening to the real fans of the game who want it to have a future, more expansions and maybe even a GW3 one day by improving what they are doing wrong....we should listen to the casuals who don't care about the future of the game at all.

    I think not.....

    Ive got most skins unlocked, but point of clarification-I was referring to past anniversary/birthday rewards. These new skins are superior to prior year birthday/anniversary rewards (to me). If compared to total game? The weapons are top ten percent to me (multiple of my characters will be switching to these weapons) while the armor is harder to judge for me, perhaps somewhere in the top 40%.

    These skins are better than a unique effect neck or endless food for all?

    Cmon...not even close.

    So turns out it's a bunch of complete 10 events achievements for different maps you can do to get some skins for a single set you must unlock in order and then when you have excess, you can spend them on some anniversary food/utility/banner consumables.

    Trying to bite my tongue a bit here on criticism for the sake of steam release day, but all I can say is... in my view, it did not warrant more than a note in patch notes when it came out.

    Agree'd, but our community just loves to be thrown scraps and thanks Anet for the feast lol.

    You're comparing a pretty easly aquired skins to legendary items. I think I'll just stop here. 😉

    Lol! Im not saying they should be legend quality. But something cool would have been nice for 10 year is all.

    It really feels like these weapon skins and armor skills will be acquired and never worn. 

    I mean...I have yet to see anyone with their 10 year weapons skins on and im sitting here with like 100 people waiting on claw....I looked at mine and went right back to my legend skin lol.

    Ok, but this seems to be completely subjective. The quality of armor seems to be good and I like how it looks. You might dislike how it looks, but then again... almost every skin will be liked and disliked by some players. Oh well.

    Yes of course some people like it and some dislike it.

    The point is, really detailed skins like most legend skins are always cool looking, even some like the joke ones (quip) some people may not like but they are still unique and cool in that sense.

    These skins just look like any other regular old skin.

    Which is completely reasonable, not sure what you've expected here.

    At least skins that are as good as what's in game already.

    The armor looks like a worse mag set. And the weapons have no effects, no swing, no projectile, no satic...

    Everything is just meh compared to what's already in game.

    Would have been nice to have something cool for 10 year.

    You didn't double click it, did you? Could it even be used or opened? It's to be traded to a vendor who isn't in the game yet. 

    It's in the game....go to any of the WP it shows you in the major cities when you double click it, they have a big gift box over their head....

    Seems like you're the one in the dark here lol 😛

    You didn't double click it, did you? 

    Ya....it takes 3 of them to get 1 of the new armor pieces.....

    You get the others needed by doing things like killing the bosses we have all killed thousands of times already.....

    So...an armor skin that is nowhere near as good as the existing outfits by doing the same stuff we've been doing for 10 years.....

    Great job Anet.... lol

  15. It's in....

    You get for pretty much everything...killing a simple level 10 world boss gives you one....

    So they are basically nothing lol.

    The meh weapon skins seems to be our big 10 year reward....too bad they aren't even up to par with the black lion ticket skins.

    Pretty sad that the year 8 and 9 are just superior in every way to 10 lol.

    Ironically Gw2 can actually have some quite beautiful reshader visuals, especially next to older mmorpgs like WoW. And the reshader can be free, but it does seem to maybe add on a bit of heat to the cpu especially in this summer weather. This person sells a crappy preset for a free software tool but it does make the game look nice. But to match BDO in graphics would require like a unreal engine rework and remaking from the ground up, while there are also cpu shortages and chip tensions over Taiwan and China where like 90% of the world's computer chips for all electronics are made that could shut down factories if a war happened. 

    It can be quite a pretty game, but even on 16 gb ram i find that gw2 DRASTICALLY overuses the CPU to 100% and only 3 gb of my 16 gb ram while getting quite hot on summer heat even with a stand for ventilation and heat. Sure it might not be as pretty as bdo or 5 "races" of just Humans with animal ears FF14. But it still looks nice.

    I think one of the running jokes with WoW was because it could always run on a potato, anyone could join it and that might have led to it's success especially in raiding where lag for rendering all 40 players doesn't really get noticed unless you have all visuals on. Meanwhile GW2 starts to lag on just 20-50+ people metas if you have character models on. But playing the game with generic blobs on lowest speeds up a lot of the stutters for better ability use (especially on specs where every second of reaction speed is important over autoing for 10% dps), but it's pretty anticlimatic to play a mmorpg where the game slows down unless you TURN other players off. If they did a rework, i'd like to see the game become more optimized to use less cpu and more ram honestly and optimized for both low end and high end. As well as seperate bloom from on or off. etc. 

    Has anyone actually paid the money for this guys reshade and compared it to the free ones?

     

    Just wondering how it compares side by side.

  17. We haven't received a visual update in 10 years....

     

    Every other MMO does visual updates usually every couple of years.

     

    Everquest did it with Kunark and again with Luclin and every few expacs moving forward.

    WoW has done it with multiple expansions.

    BDO has done it.

    SWTOR

    ....the list goes on.

     

    In fact...I think GW2 is the only MMO I've ever seen run it's entire life without any visual update.

     

    We are long overdue....and with such a large part of the community using reshaders etc....it just seems like with the steam influx it would be the perfect time for an updated look.

    The more perceptive among you will find that nobody minds downstate, it's Rally on kill that's the issue.

    I agree that rally is the real problem.

    However, getting rid of downed state gets rid of rally...getting rid of rally doesn't get rid of downed state...and I know plenty of MMO players who are big on PvP who don't agree with us and just simply don't play GW2 due to downed state. They feel a kill should be a kill.

     

    So getting rid of both with one move will open the doors to many more players. And honestly. I doubt we would lose more than 100 people who love downed state if it was removed...while opening the doors to potential thousands or tens of thousands of PvP MMO players.

    Which, using your own logic, is said only by bad players that fail to kill the enemy.

    That was actually the other person who agreed with me who said the only people who like downed state are the people in it all the time. I got your zinger tho despite it being misplaced 😛

    But really, it's hard to claim the logic the other way considering there are MMO's making hundreds of millions a year on their PvP scene like WoW arena who use the common death system.

    And then we look at GW2 who is struggling to keep the lights on.....

    Wonder which system works better.....
