Sounds like someone is butthurt about not being able to outgear people in PvP.

yes, because it always boils down to "I cant win PvP..so game sucks." right? there is either "I pwn PvP with my mad skillz, game rockz!" or "I suxor at PvP and game sucks" as the only 2 choices of why people like/hate a game. Rolling Eyes

It has nothing to do with PvP. I dont do PvP in it..and still don't like it.

I'm not saying its BAD, just well..not rewarding feeling like other MMO's I've enjoyed over the years.

At least not for how I like to play. Every character i played feels under powered. since they decided to add caster/range/heal/debuff to every class. I feel forced to have to use all 4 to win a fight against mobs.

All my characters feel as if its a under powered character, that needs stat stacking, gear, and constant spamming of debuffs just to break even fighting something his level.
Sort of like the feeling of "You cant kick this things ass outright, but if you make it weak enough from debuffs, and stack attacks you can do it!"

Perhaps its just me. I'm not a hardcore min/max player...but GW2 isn't my style.
If I play a caster, I want to be what a caster feels like to me... I'm paper thin, but make up for it in sure attack power. Its why I wear a robe, I know I can kill you before you hurt me.

Or if I'm playing a tanker type. That I can absorb damage while beating on you.
In here I don't get that feeling..all characters NEED self heals, and boon/condition spamming to feel 'capable' of making it out alive.
And they all feel the same. play a caster? you do ranged/melee/healing/buff defuff..play a fighter type? you do ranged/melee/healing/buff defuff, want to be a support type..guess what you get? ranged/melee/healing/buff defuff.

I guess the best way to explain it, is taking on 2-3 things my OWN level, feels like i'm fighting 2-3 things almost double my level in most other MMO's, without the thrill/excitement of knowing I'm fighting things out of my range and winning.
Because Im having to do all the skills of a team, as one guy..to make the combat 'complex and have depth' by forcing me to use abilities I don't want to, because everyone gets them.

And yes yes, you can pull the "well you are playing your character wrong!" line out and throw it at me..But that's my point. In the long forgotten MMO's of a decade ago, you could have fun while STILL playing how you enjoyed. You picked a class/race/type/whatever that was close to your mindset, and then tweak it to fit you...NOT tweaking your playstyle to fit the character.
There wasn't a "your playing it wrong" attitude, there was only "Your playing it how you like".
Thats the point of a game, to enjoy playing it, how you enjoy playing..not picking from a list of viable pre-defined guidelines of 'what works". And Practicing them so you can get it perfect. Thats not enjoying the game.. that's mastering and learning one of the viable ways TO play the game.
And long ago the majority of play styles worked. Here there is just a few play styles that 'work' And if you don't like them..your shit out of luck.

main problem is spvp has no reward for your character (other than looks) so spending time in it is like playing another game, ull just fall behind in the "real" game and wvw

I hardly played pvp, my main problem was how static and boring the world felt. There was nothing that made the lvl grind seems abit easier and less tedious. Also the overly childish look of the game put me off.

Yes it is Build Wars all over again and it now includes complex gear as well. The other day I watched a vid from Wooden Potatoes about his new . My thoughts, nice spike damage but wtf. Personally I still enjoy doing some PvE stuff occasionally but as warrior I stay away from WvWvW and sPvP.

Personally i find PVE pretty fucking boring. I have to force myself to go through it so that i can be level 80 with my Mesmer and be effective in WvW. You can be effective without being 80 with certain classes though but being 80 vs let's say 60 does make a difference. I know i could level from 1-80 in WvW exclusively doing WvW but it's going to be much slower that way.

If i could buy an already pre leveled 80 toon for gems or some $$$ (let's say around 10-15$) i would probably do it to save all the grind and boringness that is PVE and jump straight into WvW. That's especially true with a Mesmer who are a bit underpowered in PVE (but shine in PVP and WvW) compared to other classes.

No they haven't been nerfed. At least not yet. Wouldn't surprise me if they did though as some people are complaining about it. Personally i think they are fine the way they are but obviously i'm biased since i'm a Mesmer myself Cool Face

And not seeing people coming out of them is more than likely a bug just like the stealth rendering bug is. I don't think it was intended hence why i think it may be fixed in the future.

Yeah, that's what I did : copied and massacred it, just for my pleasure Very Happy

Just a GitS fan looking for an avatar image through Google Images, that's all ... .

Anyway, I changed it now. Happy ?

The shitheads at Anet fucking stealth nerfed the damage of the Phamtasm Berserker on the Mesmer. I have no problem with fixing the skill so that you need to have line of sight to cast it now as it was most likely a bug but the stealth nerf to the damage fucking pisses me off. Make my Mesmer even more useless and harder to level in PVE now. Also affect my only decent AOE damage output in PvP and WvW. Screw this shit.

Nah can't be true, check the folder where it gets installed and look at the size of the gw2.dat file.
The launcher/patcher however starts counting from 0 again though
