You are not wrong there my friend ahah 🤣

Performance wise he isnt wrong guys. most of you guys will be playing with the 2 most important setting(model limit, model quality) to increase performance down to low. im not saying this is a bad thing. but in Wvw its pretty f**in stupid just seeing name tags intead of player models in a big fight. its almost off putting for new players. i run pretty good hardware aswell and these setting are a must for 60+ fps during big wvw and big pve events. i dont want a gw3 personally. but i do want new tech in the game to make it stand the test of time. FSR/DLSS would be a nice start. improvements and new graphical options for the DX11. New UI update aswell would be nice. the people commenting that the performance is fine in wvw are mental.

yeah i should have said AOE range. thanks for clearing that up. but yeah the tool tips are crazy. i put the blish hud Aoe rings on and your totally right ! the hammer ranges dont even match. No wonder hammer doesnt feel great

Just wanted to chat about the Hammer in PvP/WvW – it needs a bit more love, especially when you're all up in someone's face. Feels a bit clunky at times. I've played with the new maces, and man, they're smooth compared to the Hammer. Checked out the range on their skills, and guess what I found? Skill 2 is 180 range, skill 3 (600-leap) with 180 range, skill 4 on maces is 240, and skill 5 is 180 range. Most of those skills have a baseline range of 180. Now, back to the Hammer – the ranges are all over the place: Auto: 130 Ambush: 240 Wild Swing: 130 Overbearing Smash: 180 Savage Shock Wave: 120/240/360 Thump: 180 I think anet should keep auto at 130, but give the other skills a baseline boost to 180 or 200. Nothing too crazy, just enough to make the Hammer more enjoyable to play. Let me know what you fellow Rangers think ❤️

yeah he was 100% full glass canon. even then i still dont think having sigils do that much damage is good for the game. air and fire feel fine but maybe frost shouldnt crit as it already applys chill for 2 secs aswell

im around 1.6k toughness so maybe thats why the backstab is low ? maybe not sure. Feels alittle cheap though to get killed by sigils. if it was just the back stab alone i would have been fine but the damage totals up to about 18k most of the damage comes from the sigils. air and fire numbers seem to be fine but the hydromancy sigil doing that much is crazy i think personally.

I was looking at my damage log and was completely shocked to see that frost burst (Superior Sigil of Hydromancy) hit me for almost 7k i will attach screenshot also got hit 1.8k and 2.2k from air and fire. Do you think this is normal or just a one off ? https://imgur.com/7t6Of84

I dont know what everyone is on about. i just played 3 games ranked (plat). SB still slaps.

Physical skills, will they be getting buffed soon ? Heel crack is trash compared to heavens palm, sanctuary, spirt hammer Whirling light is trash compared to purging flames Rolling light is just meh and doesnt feel smooth enough for pvp or even pve. Flash combo hits like a wet noodle. Flash combo should be instant cast and interupt with some sort of damage bonus for doing so or even weakness and confusion to fit with the theme Whirling light is such a bad kitten skill. maybe at 2 more hits same duration of cast time. Rolling light need to throw you back futher maybe like ranger sword.

Transmutation charges. I need a sink for them. ive got about 1500 of them. no use for them as i have full leggy armor. Even if its turning them in to another utility like bank access or exp booster il be happy.

Did i miss them somewhere or did we not get new spec related runes ?

I doubt it would happen but if someone from the anet team could respond to this it would at least make me feel like it being looked in to and not just a "who cares if the gem store is making moneyyyyy" From a almost 10 year vet that has easily spend over 1k on this game

Don't thinks it's really that confusing you guys are either Anet staff or people that don't like rewards

Weekly Mystic clovers and coins yeah i agree. But the ancient summoning stone feels good just now because its free gold pretty much. the price will continue to drop intill it doesnt feel that rewarding.

i like this idea but i would add the items in the statuettes to the loot tables aswell. it would feel good to get a statuette but getting a 50 statueette item man i would be hyped. one more thing i would like to add is gold to gems is good, it always will be, alot of people grind for gem for unlocks and again i like this. but i cant help feel that gem store items recently could have been drops for achevement items. look at these items and tell me im wrong. Canthan Spiritualist Outfit Elegant Canthan Outfit Elegant Canthan Staff Canthan Sun Hat Skin Canthan Spiritualist Backpack and Glider Combo Golden Dragon Fishing Rod Skin Midnight Lotus Fishing Rod Skin Canthan Cuckoo Springer Mounts Pack Siege Turtle Advent Mounts Pack White Tiger Jackal Skin Crescent Canoe Skiff Skin Concealed Jade Tech Pistol Skin Thousand Seas Pavilion Pass Jade Tech Wings Backpack and Glider Combo Winged Reverie Skiff Skin. These items are all EOD themed. Can you imagine how awesome it would be to unlock these via strikes or EOD meta or achevements. even currency vendors for green shards i know the mount bundles are a bit much but 1 from each of the mount pack would have been awesome and it would be given players like me something to work towards that isnt legendarys.

All the end of dragon pets skills are have intermittent problems with skill activation. They don't respond well. Even when you have no target the skills that are channel like the Lazer beam from the phoenix takes a long time to even response. I don't have the problem with any of the other pets.

The thing that's been bothering me is we have some really cool armor sets on the gem store. The foefire set and the ice reaver set could have been rewards or drops. I get that we need to support Anet because there isn't a monthly sub but the company made hundreds of millions last year alone. World of Warcraft just stole one of gw2 best features. It's time for gw2 to steal some reward structures from other MMOs At this point I would take a battle pass system if it means I got more loot 🤣 Even if they did reward tracks for strikes for more loot I would be happy 😆

Just seen them they are cool. they could have been strike drops

Strike rewards are terrible. EOD end meta is only good for a.s.s but as the price falls so does the reward. Also infusions are good but most of the player base will never get them. My fix. More meaningful rewards. The living water weapons are cool. What about the flame servant weapons?? No upgrade version for them . You have added 3 different mount packs in the last couple of weeks. 1 from each of those packs could have easily been a drop for strikes or even eod meta events. You have chairs and skiffs and fishing poles now ? But no drops or rewards for strikes or Eod meta's. The new CM strike reward I actually laughed. I beat the boss (great cm btw) and now feel like there's no point in playing it again. For players that have load of Li we need a sink for them. You know the atherblade cm right ? You could have used the already existing atherblade armour set and given it a scarlet red aura effect or something. Make it a skin or a ascended and have it drop only for cm chest. The fact I can come up with this in 2 secs is mental. Also if your going to add more infusions make them less in your face. I love gw2 but the rewards are pretty meh for vet players.

20k burst damage in pvp is not low. you are mad to think so. the problem here is that his Shroud isnt displaying the correct health.

Still doesnt make it any better. if vindicator gets to keep this i demand hammer 4 on ranger to do the same damage.

no barrier seen here. also if they can stop 15k dps with barrier in 2secs thats broken af

Not sure how he is still alive after being doing over 20k dps to him in a matter of seconds ? Specter shroud broken or somthing ? https://youtu.be/Uv073XCE2No

because the someone would find a way to sell first place.

Just going to keep it short. I've mained ranger since launch. over 6000 hours on ranger. Ive always wanted to have better pet control but dont remove attack my target and return to me and i feel like having a quality of life like more access to your pet skills is very cheap for a new spec. hammer feels bit slow but i love the skills shame they hit like a wet noodle in all modes, also the hammer synergy between unleashed is just bad having the same cool down means you are forced to drop damage trait to take cc trait if you can land cc ..... and that's the other problem the range on the hammer skills suck. unleashed savage shock wave should be 360 range on all hits. it's a shockwave. look at the new rev great sword 5 that got 900 range and 360 for its multihit attack. The cool downs on hammer are too high if you don't change the shared cooldown. Untamed traits are boring as hell. No synergy with other traitlines. also 3 minor trait should be in the first minor and give us something that helps with this mess. the unleashed pet skills are very underwhelming. 0 damage on all 3 skills and even the condis are weak on them. Only one set aswell ? no family of pet ones ? very lazy. What happened to the other weapon sets ? On the bright side at least we get new pets for Soul beast. But im sure they wont have new skills they are can use because its very clear the quilty of these new specs are very Rushed/low. I feel like whoever was in charged of giving the anet quality stamp of approval is long gone.
