    Quickness used to be 100% faster casting way back at launch and it was balanced for 2 reasons:

    1. It was a very rare boon to have with only Timewarp, Quickening Zephyr, Frenzy and Tome of Wrath giving it. Not sure what traits might give it but they were rare too.
    2. Often it had downsides, Timewarp being short duration in an area, Quickening Zephyr and Frenzy would reduce your healing by 100% or increase damage taken by 50% respectively and Zealot's Fervor having a 2s cast on top of the tome cast with limited use and huge cool down.

    It was reduced to 50% in 2013 along with reducing it's negative effect on the utility skills, then a lot of drawbacks were removed altogether in 2015 in preparation for elite specs. This is where quickness started going out of control, it was handed out like candy with no drawback on top of increased boon duration and spam from the new elite specs, corrupts and removal couldn't keep up.

    Quickness is fine as a boon, it doesn't increase your damage as much as you think, what needs to happen is going back to either having drawbacks or being much harder to get in general and no-one should have perma quickness or even 50% without some serious (half your traits) trait investment.

    What does a Holo do to get high quickness up time? 30% boon duration rune which they would take anyway, sigil of agility, 1 traited utility and 1 trait.What does a chrono or mesmer take for high quickness uptime? 2 traits and some boon duration.FB only needs 2 traits + decent boon duration to get high quickness uptime or the quickness mantra and 1 trait.

    Most other classes quickness isn't too bad, might just need a slight curb but that's about it.

    its not the dmg increase but the way you can quickly chain attacks that makes it OP as a ranger GS without quickness is useless axe main for that matter as well

    it was just a joke no need to make up outrageously false things about rangers using weakness....

    there is only 1 skill "some" rangers use to apply weakness in pvp.Winters bite on axe main

    and 1 traitprotective ward which is on nature magic and is really only used by boonbeasts and core weirdos which are meant to bunk.

    the others are not even used in any viable build relating to pvp so git gud and stop lying to suit your agenda.

    lmao at the thought of rangers using black bear for enfeebling roar. most rangers don't even realize theres a pet with weakness

    Done ranger use the trait that gives weakness upon being hit? How can people dodge that ?

    protective ward like the other guy said. radius is 240....

    The thread was not focusing on your particular class, no need to be so arrogant. Check
    ,
    ,
    . You will see that your little ranger is not the only class applying such a badly designed condition. It was fine before HoT and PoF but now it's just everywhere, good luck trying to dodge that.

    wasn't being arrogant. I was making sure false info wasn't being perpetuated by ignorant people who try to use it to enforce a point they have no business lending an opinion on because its uniformed or straight up wrong. Been playing ranger since gw1, i like to think i know what its grossly overpowered things are that need a nerf. There is a ton of stuff no one even looks at that good rangers abuse and its sure as hell not weakness.

  4. @"Vicariuz.1605" said:I would use this option ~90% of the time, I'm more concerned with match quality than volume. There are points during the season where I would queue without this filter to grind pips for the chest as it is still very valuable, but ultimately I prefer to play with and against those of my own skill level, regardless of wait time.

    For reference I'm a plat3/legend player, and waiting 30 minutes for an actual game would be more "fun" to me than a roller coaster ride every time I queue.

    Exactly this, I WANT GOOD GAMES. I don't want shitty 500-150 games where im bored out of mind or getting salty at someone who has no business in my matches. I just want good fights regardless of win/loss. This is especially hard when the average gold 2 doesn't even understand basics or bothers to read the map. I don't want to waste my time yelling at the engi who just zerged mid leaving home for freecap only to roll and lose 2 points because they cant be bothered to look at the corner of their screen and watch enemy rotations which should be one of the first things they learn to do multitasking wise. That player has no business queing and the best part of it is that when you tell them to read the map they take it like its an insult.

    something needs to change. a lot of people including myself are getting fed up with these awful ques and just plain leaving the game. I literally play like 50 games at the beginning of season now regardless of wins/losses just for minimum games, quit til late mid/end season que and then finish season high plat with duo partner. we shouldn't be forced into playing at certain points or timezones if we actually want to get to where we normally place just so we have good matches....

    I should be able to log in at any point and be qued with people of EQUAL skill it shouldn't be conditional.
