If everyone can one shot, everything is balanced right guys... right guys?

Warrior has 0 stealths, useful shadowsteps, useful superspeed.

A Thief, Like a normal person..

Reveal should be absolute in WvW.

Solo.6873 replied to Kitty.4806's topic in World vs. World

My advice is, if you see someone cheating them record it. OBS is free, and simple to set up. Record the player, then send the vid to anet. People have gotten way to comfortable cheating and that needs to change.

Reveal should be absolute in WvW.

Solo.6873 replied to Kitty.4806's topic in World vs. World

Unless their is a bugged interaction with something, I just tested this...It does not remove revealed in WvW

Reveal should be absolute in WvW.

Solo.6873 replied to Kitty.4806's topic in World vs. World

To my knowledge, unless the thief is hacking, they have no skill that removes revealed in WvW anymore. But I could be wrong. A thief roach cultist will be in here to tell us definitively.

Roaming - How to against willbender?

.....Now I feel dirty for contributing to another cele player in wvw :I.....

Roaming - How to against willbender?

Solo.6873 replied to Catchyfx.5768's topic in World vs. World

First...dodge? Cele Harb, Cele dagger spam mirage, chrono, deadeye, cele berserker, vindicator, cele catalyst, condi druid. Literally every class has a roaming build that deals with basic willbender . . . Edit: ALSO, If you chase a willbender across a map, wasting your movement skills or escapes and they turn around and burst you, you deserve that death. Chasing a willbender, like a thief or mesmer, is stupid.

Thieves message to Anet

Solo.6873 replied to TheThief.8475's topic in Thief

[PvE] Celestial stats in need of a trim.

Solo.6873 replied to ZeftheWicked.3076's topic in Professions

....Why is this even a discussion though? If cele was the best. The best would use it. For everything. It isn't, so why in PvE does this warrant ire? Like WvW cele is a massive problem ( PvP rules in WvW when?) but PvE?

Improved Alacrity (post January 30th patch)

Solo.6873 replied to katte nici.9483's topic in Mesmer

Basically. We got nerfed because a boon that should have been chrono exclusive was given to everyone else.

mesmer MH sword

Solo.6873 replied to Entropo.1524's topic in Mesmer

IIRC the sword was also nerfed because it was triggering the " on distortion" traits. You know Anet can't let mesmer have synergy. That's not allowed

Stop complaining about complaining

Truly breathtaking and profound notes. Thank you Anet

Which weapons would you like to have?

Solo.6873 replied to SoulGuardian.6203's topic in Professions

AYOO, but why you acting like a separatist though? 🤣

Gaurdian wars 2

Guardians are the " Holy paladin" or " Priest" class so this tracks....

My thoughts on Willbender

Solo.6873 replied to Barnahizi.2593's topic in Guardian

I'm gonna be honest. It's never conducive to ask for nerfs when you haven't even touched the class. I think most people are tired of knee jerk changes when they happen because of people who have never touched the class commenting on what needs to be changed. (Usually done because they no longer want to struggle against the class or something usually along those lines ). Please play the classes you have trouble with before coming into a class specific forum and telling others what the problem is. Or ask for help instead of demanding things become easier for you.

My thoughts on Willbender

Solo.6873 replied to Barnahizi.2593's topic in Guardian

I would highly advise you play willbender for a few months, roam solo, fight everyone and everything. You're going to learn a lot more that way vs looking on meta battles and cherry picked YouTube clips. The class doesn't have more or less invulns than any other, and a few classes actually got teleporting skills. The main reason I think people are crying so much for a nerf SPECIFICALLY for guardian is because it got nikes. And them air forces is black. No one wants to accept a class that used to have limited movement, now has the ability to run away from unwanted engagements. You guys are going to have to accept that. Same way you had to accept it when warrior put on their Nikes.

My thoughts on Willbender

Solo.6873 replied to Barnahizi.2593's topic in Guardian

See this is where I am confused because it has about the same as other classes. We can actually count the amount of invulns and blocks on one hand. Even adding evades that still is one hand. 1. Renewed Focus 2. Virtue of Courage- one aegis- 3. Shelter. Those are blocks used in the roaming build people complain about. 4. If we add the Evades Flowing resolve. In comparison to a popular thief roaming build S/D 1. Roll for Initiative 2. Flanking Strike 3. Dagger storm 4. Withdraw. -If using daredevil has the option to use Bandits Defense- This class has the option to go into stealth. In comparison to my mesmer roamer 1. Echo of Memory 1a. Deja Vue 2. Distortion 3. Blurred Frenzy This class has the option to stealth AND cause detarget. Warrior- 1. Full Counter 2. Whirlwind Attack 3. Bulls Charge 4. Shield Stance - If adding rampage- takes 50% less damage with pulsing stability and swiftness- -If on bladesworn - 1. Triggerguard 2. Cyclone Trigger . ..So what is really the issue...The options in comparison to other meta roaming builds is around the same.

My thoughts on Willbender

Solo.6873 replied to Barnahizi.2593's topic in Guardian

A block is not the same as an invuln. If we are playing that game then Warrior, Mesmer, and Ranger would be included in that conversation. So lets not call a Joker a Spade.

Why is Guardian Longbow 3 allowed to shoot behind you but Rev’s Forced Engagement Can’t?

Solo.6873 replied to Kamikazi.5380's topic in Professions

Rev Shortbow 2 and 5 both can be shot behind the rev. While the rev is moving. You don't care about equivalency. You either want nerfs to Guardian or buffs to shortbow to bring it over the top. At least be honest about it.

Armed with Dual Pistols, Guardians Rain Down Bullets of Justice!

Solo.6873 replied to Rubi Bayer.8493's topic in Guardian

I'm predicting that the professions that are going to have the best announcement reaction is going to be Guardians, Mesmer's, Necromancers, then rangers. Everyone else is prolly gonna complain, and I get it. Like if you look at the Ele video you can tell they were probably the class that had the least amount of effort put into the weapon and trailer. The character was wearing the blandest outfit. The draw animation was trash. They used what looked like a base model pistol. 🤣 . On topic of the guardian. I am in the wait and see camp. Test before it gets an approval or disapproval. Anet is finicky and they are bound to honestly make a last minute change that will make the weapon either severely underperform, or it comes out and overperforms so much they nerf every other espec and core traitline to compensate .

Rifle Mesmers Direct Allies to the Nearest Emergency Exit

Solo.6873 replied to Rubi Bayer.8493's topic in Mesmer

I cant really speak to the most recent events but, Torch was meta when mirage was first introduced on both Power and condi builds in WvW and pvp, mainly for the stealth burst for power and the added burning for the condi builds. x/torch was a very common pairing on mirage . ( until anet nerfed it below the ground and used it as fertilizer. yes i am still bitter)

Pistols Grant Elementalists the Choice between Greater Damage and Defense

Solo.6873 replied to Rubi Bayer.8493's topic in Elementalist

Nah it should stay. It's the best part 😂

DPS and PowerCreep has gotten out of control. Nerf DPS

Solo.6873 replied to Blumpf.2518's topic in Professions

^All of this. It is not a viable business model to cater to the 1% of people that want the game to be on challenge mode all the time. I'm not sure if this has escaped peoples notice but this game is a casual players dream. That is why it is still somewhat running. People don't have a gear treadmill. This game doesn't have a best in slot that changes every content update. You have ACCOUNT WIDE sharing options for all of the highest gear available which can be obtained by doing almost anything in the game ( until the new legendary gear comes out then it will be literally everything). This is not the game of the 1%. Never has been. Solution though, which would probably be less work and have less backlash from the majority of the games community. Add a hard mode to high end content. Give bosses what ever you want to make the game challenging for those that need to sweat and have constant adrenal responses to enjoy things in life. Pleases them, and leaves the rest of us happy.

A possible Infinite Horizon "fix" through a slight Mirage tweak

Solo.6873 replied to ThomasC.1056's topic in Mesmer

If you got those two things wrong why should I read the paragraphs of nerfs you want to slap on the class? I agree. If you think mirage has big evade uptime I immediately stop taking you seriously. Because you are parroting a talking point that is A LIE. To then make a list of nerfs to a class you don't understand is honestly disrespectful to the people that have been putting forth reasonable well thought post on the same issue. Please understand the class before trying next time.
