Meanwhile, warclaw skill 1 affects multiple targets (10 iirc) and does BIG dmg, i have seen 25k crits in drms...

Do we have a source for this? The emblems part, i mean.

I did them recently and afaik they start every 10 minutes, so there isn't really a long cooldown. I usually called for help and 2-7 people came to help. Or you can make a group on lfg and do it, im sure i saw 2-3 groups over the last 2 weeks advertising it.

Hybrid reaper is strong as a roamer, stronger after patch (small tip: cele stats now have expertise plus concentration!). I have tested a few builds and was pleasantly surprised.

With other specs benching 40k+, necro will be left behind. As usually.

We all know necros are already masters of mobility, so why would they need more swiftness uptime?

We will see a lot of posts from ppl who have 3+ full lege sets and demand compensation of some sort, even though they have used the convenience of all sets for years. One can only wait

Buy machetes from vendor. Do meta, open all noxious pods, get 60-100 ores (i got that many in my last 10 metas, recently) I honestly see no problem here.

"I was talking with some of the younger players" yup, that explains everything. With legendary armory announced, i can only imagine they want their shinies as fast as possible without thinking about the chronic wvw issues. Yay.

http://imgur.com/a/mw9mFqT Right now deso+ wsr sit on 260 ppt, blue 71, red 60. whole eb is colored green (deso+wsr). Nah, youre not overstacked by any means, it is probably that gandara (full server) and Vizunah+fsp have waaaaaaaay fewer players than you. Suuuure thing. Yup. Makes total sense. T1 eu has always been like this, btw.

I am on gandara. 30m ago from this post you had 300+ ppt, camping all eb keeps. Outnumbered buff is permanently there. Please dont spread inconsistencies, WSR+deso are overstacked. You have roamer blobs.

I wear the title. It is NOT colored.

Gen2 (Chuka, Nevermore, HOPE, Astralaria) have lots of events that you need to complete. Gen2.5 however don't. You can just spend cash to buy a huge amount of mithril and elder wood. Desert gift or HoT gift is the only thing you cant buy, but it is so darn easy to get. I get that some people hate being told that leggies are not really THAT prestigious, in this age.

Gen1 can be bought from tp Gen2 are 4 (four), it is a REALLY small number. Gen2.5 can pretty much be bought (15k mithril plus 35k elder wood, so exciting), the only thing you actually need to do is HoT map comp (4 maps) or the equivalent desert gift. Yay. Such a legendary feat. Wow.

What is prestigious about legendary skins when you can just... Swipe that credit card and obtain them? Absolutely nothing. Zero. Legendary skins are not special, theyre simply overpriced skins. Its only the QoL they provide, for those who need that qol.

Oh look, condiherald is getting the nerfhammer. I mean, noone could see this coming! Hop on to the next carry build, fellas! Im sure one will emerge not long after the patch.

Whatever floats your boat. Any type of extreme condi damage is for weak players. Elixir S is for extremely week players.Cause, apparently, playing immortal boonbeast means skill.Riiiiight.

Inb4 angry comments from non wvwers about wvw being toxic, not wanting to change, that kind of stuff.Thinly veiled behind "give us all wvw rewards and let us ktrain in peace, ty"

Its not you (if we only take your story into account). People apparently hate being told they're bad when they know they're being bad.Go figure.

Thieves should have no defensive measures to use whatsoever, I agree with you. All Gas. No Brakes. Let's do this. Remove stealth and mobility. Buff thief damage. Every skill that uses initiative gets damage increased by 500% as a baseline. Man, players like you have wonderful ideas and I'm glad you're part of the balance team. There is so much wrong with what you wrote, so much putting words in my mouth, no reply is needed. Good day

Ah, yes, thief mains defending their op stealth and mobility.

Lol, what do you mean "the occasional" bandwagon? That's probably the bulk of their sales, and the only steady income they have. :sweat_smile:WvW makes extremely steady money, something they can't rely on skins and keys and convenience items.Yet WvW gets the least attention... Ah, yes, 40 man guilds moving to lowpop servers for 500 gems/person, and they usually convert gold to gems for that. I personally have been in enough guilds who did just that. HUGE money. Mhmmm. I get that we want desperately want more shinies from wvw, but lying about things is hardly helping anyone I never said HUGE money, i said consistent money. When someone buys a skin, it's their forever. Bandwagoning happens every relink. And when thousands of players bandwagon, those 500 gems multiply and it doesn't seem so small anymore. Sure a percentage will convert gems for it, but some won't. Consistent profit for Anet. Also, why are you so contrarian to every improvement idea that concernes the reward structure? You'd rather WvW stagnate forever and just eventually die? I mean, what's it even to you, you said you're already max rank with everything... So why bother? It won't affect you in the slightest, especially if they just rebalance the rewards to respect people's time instead of forcing people to make WvW their second job in order to get anything out of it. Sorry but to me it just seems spiteful and petty...I will say this for the last time, cause it would seem that each interaction with you comes down to the same agenda of rewards without addressing the more pressing wvw issues. Balance of classes, balance of population, ACTUAL balance and not the average "random utility has its cd increased by 5 secs". ACTUAL dev presence to weed out hackers from known servers. Making winning matter. Just naming a few, here. I am really sorry i cant sympathize with the average pver mentality of "OH LOOK, MA, SHINIES! HOW CAN I GET EM FASTER BY DOING THE SAME OR LESS WVW RELATED STUFF?" The stagnation of wvw doesnt come from the rewards (rewards are a relatively minor issue), but from the aforementioned issues. YOU want to make wvw another eotm, with pve rewards and full wvw rewards. I was there when it died. And, yes, it will affect me cause i am there for the fun. Endless queues of pvers who hunt shinies 24/7 by turning everything a ktrain will be the final coffin in wvw, people like me who like wvw will not be able to play. Yes, another ktrain is just what we need.Wvw doesn't have "thousands of players" playing regularly, let alone changing servers every 2 months. Wvw isnt eotm, it isnt map instances where one map fills, more open. Nope. Wvw has a limited amount of people who can play. So reward change -ANY rewards change- has to be studied more. Pretty self explanatory, i believe. If the game feels like a second job, that is on the player. I was enjoying wvw before pips came out. I dont enjoy pve raids, i dont do them. Shocker, i know. This is a game, its about having fun. As for me being a "spiteful spirit", that is your opinion. You may have a superficial grasp of wvw and from your perspective it seems like this. This mode is much more delicate than pve raids, fractal CMs.

Pretty sure the wvwer couldnt care less about new raptor/skyscale etc skins. Hell, i wonder of wvwers actually have skyscale. Or griffon.At least those who pve a lot, do. Theyre not too many. Like 80-90% of my guildmates have the Vermillion Wings (we don't all wear them at the same time). 0% of us ride the default Warclaw. WvW is a great place for playing dress-up because you see the same people habitually, and the best place for any kind of "group style" since other people will actually see your guild on the battlefield.I play with character models on low, cause it brings better performance as far as lag etc . As most players when doing fights.

PvE only goes so far before people get bored of the same mechanics being rehashed with shiny effects, this is more so esp with a PvE game giant like FFXIV, but hey content right?I mean doing the same boss fighting the same thing doing the same rotation having the same people day in and day out is so much excitement I can hardly contain myself.Honestly I don't understand what kind of revenue you expect from a free to play into a one time purchase game model. Hardcore PvErs are rich enough to not need to spend cash to get gems for cosmetics. In terms of the gemstore it benefits both PvPers and PvErs because nothing makes you stronger and its all quality of life things so again "Pve brings revenue" is the most absurd statement and quite condescending. Bud, since youre so good at anets business model, be a dear and explain to us how a free to play one time purchase game pays the company's bills and the paychecks of its employees.Pvers spend real life money for mount skins, bl keys, various other cosmetics.What does the wvwer do? The occasional 500gem bandwagon fee? Are you so stuck up that you think only pvers buy skins from the trading post? In fact there are some PvErs that earn so much they dont need to pay for gems instead they can just convert it. Unlike WvW where it isn't as easy to make gold we actually purchase gems for skins. You make it sound like you guys are paying for everything lol. Again very absurd and condescending. Blind rage, no arguments. Customary here. Not EVERY pve player is hardcore to buy everything with ingame gold. Please define who "you" is. Im 10k rank, all achievs completed etc. Wvw is my main mode for years. And not every pvper refuse to spend irl cash to support the game so your point? Congratulations for accolades when it means nothing to the topic at hand, so what you think you have a upper hand above everyone else is that it? Again absurd and CONDESCENDING.Ah yes, salt mode indeed. You go bud!
