>it's another episode of "shitty devs made the non-group event so fucking ridiculous to solo that you can't do it unless you're standing there at the start of the event and use the full time to complete it, and each turn-in awards 18% progress for some retarded reason, which makes it look like 5 turn-ins will get you to completion but in reality will drop you 10% short, and then the event will fail for no good goddamn reason."

What kind of subhuman shitstain makes an event that 90% of players that stumble onto halfway through will attempt and then fail because they don't realize that the event will spam them with hostile versions of the neutral animals all around them and make them drop the turn-in?

Everything about this trivial, shitty, useless little event is just bad. It adds nothing to the game but risks wasting tons of time and investment from the player. There was no fucking reason to design it this way.

it is a group event if you cant do it solo. welcome to a multiplayer game.
>>
>>567270692
It's not listed as a group event. Part of me wonders if the only reason I failed it was because someone showed up at the end, grabbed a pod, dropped it to fight some hostile animals that spawned on them, and that bumped the event up from 1 player participating to 2 and halved how much my final turn-in counted for.
Shit design either way. It's not fun or interesting to have a bunch of random hostile animals spawn on you while you're slowed down and carrying a bundle that pacifies you.

Again, not a single goddamn thing is added by making this a champion level enemy.
Not one good thing is added to the game by punch-fucking the players' assholes like this.
It doesn't serve any objective purpose to design this to be this fucking shitty.

I am literally trying to unlock HPs on an alt so I can go back to newbie zones in full Harrier's and help baby players and I'm being forced to go full tryhard and put on a fucking Sentinel set and spec into defensive traits so I can do a handful of fucking HPs because the devs were too stupid to design a zone right and too lazy to fix it in the 10+ years it's been out.

As you can see by now, Bava Nisos is a massive pile of shit and probably the worst map in the game, so it's not surprising that people don't just hang out there doing events for fun.
That said, I have seen people run the meta recently and there's a Champ farm group in LFG right now, but if you just want to get it over with ASAP then I'd just do the rifts, progress the story, and get the fuck out of there.

I assume:

Used to be my favorite meta & ran a group every night at 23:30 that was usually filled in minutes after putting it up, good ol' written down mechanics to copy/paste quickly.

They usually don't complain, because they're being carried. The average GW2 player doesn't know how to do more than 10k dps even with VoE specs.

15k is the realistic mark of a decent player
only like 5% of the playerbase are hitting 30-40k on the golem with certain classes button mashing the skill recharge
and in real fights with mechanics and real shit happening its expected to be half of that
15-20k

theres a reason snowcrows started hiding numbers for min

while true that only 5% of the playerbase can hit 30-40k on the golem, I want to believe that anyone can if they actually read what to do and equip a proper build and not whatever celestial marauder shit that open world players normally insist is "good enough"? I'm a low-intensity shitter but I could do 37k on the golem pre-nerf using a build meant for babies.

the media guild wars 2 player is willfully ignorant of the game's mechanics, is allergic to reading tooltips, and I don't know what else. I see people in quick play doing 600 dps on a non-boon non-support build... how does that even happen? were they in low level gear?

This never actually really happens tho, charr lore discussion never gets hijacked. Every related topic starts out as either coomer furfags shitposts or humanfags/GW1 fags seething about 'lore'. No one is interested in any actual lore or worldbuilding anyway. Game itself hasn't been excited about its lore or race culture after Core.

I usually do this champion even for the heck of it whenever I come by Auric basin but there's usually 3-5 people just stood waiting for a tag/massive group to come help them with it because they refuse to learn, hopefully its none of you anons.

Ez rundown on how to beat up the balth champion hp in auric basin:

• Champ has a break bar, resist the urge! If it don't show someone else broke it and failed and it will not pop up again, it only appears once per life cycle.

• Champ hits hard so keep dodging, make sure you down the dog adds the champ has then proceed to slap the shit out of it

• at 50% the champ will raise its greatsword above its head, a few seconds later the entire room will be set on fire. At this point, you should bust out all the CC you have to break him, if you don't use a bouncing shroom to get up on a ledge and just sustain the ranged attacks or use the room teleport to wait until the fire goes away.

• If you do CC at 50% the champ will no longer set the room on fire and you are free to just burst it down.

Most if not all builds should be able to solo this champion hp even if it is a 'group event', just dodge, don't stand in the fire and if its too hard swap builds and try again
>>
>>567443184
>use a bouncing mushroom to get onto a ledge
This literally never works for me, i just end up stepping out of the arena and standing far back from the entryway until the fire goes away, then i go back and engage him. Its the most effective strategy ive found personally.
>>
>>567444974
Yeah, that reply is a psyop made by a Priest of Balthazar because that shit never works.
The fire gets up on the ledge and Balth can still hit you up there, so the ledge will only save you if you have a support build like hydromancer or ventari revenant and just spam heals up there. Every single other spec will die to the fire.

Finally decided to try Scourge, and what do you mean I have to shit out a Shade every 8 seconds?
Who thought this was a good idea?
You have to just constantly be pressing F1 or Shift+1 or whatever you have the hotkey bound to, just shitting out ground-targeted summons that last for EIGHT seconds, to play your spec?

This is atrocious. They need to last like 60 seconds and have one of the shroud skills collapse them so they can be more like engineer turrets or something.
>>
>>567449571
yeah its pretty shit
no wonder people just play reaper
their specs are absolute garbage to play
>>
>>567449571
This isn't FF14, 8 seconds is a long time in GW2's combat system.
>>
>>567450126
The fuck it is. I bound that row of skills to shift+1, shift+2, shift+3, etc, and I'm getting hand cramps from constantly mashing shift+1 to keep a shade out.

>>567449571
>You have to just constantly be pressing F1 or Shift+1 or whatever you have the hotkey bound to, just shitting out ground-targeted summons that last for EIGHT seconds, to play your spec?

>>567450450
>not binding the f1 skill to the mouse cursor and shifting all the f skills over to the left by one
Sounds like a hardware issue. I just make sure to shit out a sandshade anytime my f-skills are all on cooldown and then juat spam them off cooldown. Works for me

>missile launcher lock w/ latency just enough to cause rockets to miss

>>567451582
Ele's not so bad. Nor is engineer with its toolbelt skills. Because you press each skill like once every 10-20 seconds, maybe even 30 seconds.

Sand Shades are killing me because it seems like you have to press F1 F1 F1 3 times in a row then mash F2 F3 F4 F5 and then you have a few seconds of peace and then you have to mash F1 F1 F1 F2 F3 F4 F5 all over again.
All of the shroud skills are incredibly weak and have super short CDs. Imo they should just be doubled in effectiveness and in cooldown, if not tripled.
>>
>>567452721
It has no dropoff, so you can instead aim ahead of it and have a better chance at hitting it.

I'm hating how Scourge feels to play, but I can't deny that everything is faceroll. Nothing has taken me under 80% hp yet. Not even champion enemies. It doesn't feel like it should be as good as it is. I still stand by what I said, though. Double the skill CDs and effects.

I play Tempest, so maybe that has something to do with it. My Marauder build sits in Air, channeles its Overload, swaps to Fire long enough to reset Air, then goes back to Air until Overload, then swaps to Earth, resets Air, then Overloads it, etc.

My Condi Tempest just swaps between Fire and Earth. Both specs just swap maybe once every 10-20 seconds.

Safest option to avoid when the entire room is on fire if cc isnt an option is to just use the exalted teleport out, wait for it to die down, wait another second or two for it to actually go out then teleport back in. No need to stress out in the fire room because even if the champ breaks combat it wont reset that quickly.
I just laid out all the options in my original post for people that don't know what to do.

Man WvW is the peak of this game when it's off-prime time and the zergs are asleep, you get loads of really fun small scale fights, and then the odd siege when it's like 10+ people on each side, that's when gw2 combat really fucking shines, not that amorphous boonblob bullshit running over everything in its path

>>567461374
NTAs but I got Legendary Magus spending most of my time in Staff Tempest Support Auramancer and while it's chill in PvE its really technical in sPvP for entirely different reasons, and it works well because you play less piano and play more "click the right button for the situation", a lot of your time will be reactive, dodging, positioning, clever use of CC, stun breaks, team wide magnetic aura to blow up projectile shooters, constant cleansing, meteors to open, overloads to make space (fire/air) or support skirmishes (water/earth), it's a lot of fun and you still get to do decent damage, I would regularly do around 20% team damage and 60%+ team healing. It's also hilarious to go 1v1 and see the opponent get bewildered as you the support staff ele who should be an easy target, completely shut them down with CC and sustain yourself through the fight, even kill anyone especially squishy

For WvW I go donut Steele weaver, spear to make big damage number dopamine hits in sieges or blobs, sword/dagger for small 1-5 person skirmishes
>>
>>567464653
>staff in PvP
I don't get this, once some newer spec is on me and CCing me to death, I have like water 5 to try and cleanse shit and one long CD skill as a stunbreak, unless your teammates are right there and actively helping you I don't get how you can survive, do you just pile all your AOE on yourself?
>>
>>567464653
imo the gameplay is too repetitive either way, but as someone only in it for the rewards, I think boonblob is best to maximize player kills if you win (once your only remaining goals are WXP and player kills)

you can stack alot of cleanses, stun breaks and stab with water/earth/tempest lines, signet of cleansing and eye of the storm, armour of earth and lightning flash (doesn't break stun but shifts you far enough from danger whilst stunned)

You do actually want to be near the fighting, just right next to it but not inside it. it's all about positioning and clever use of staff CC, you want your AoE heals to hit both you and your team while you blast them to pump out healing and cleanses, you need to use those utility skills extensively to be a slippery fucker, you use rebound for extra auras and buffs rather than trying to snipe death saving heals (it doesn't heal enough to matter anyway), fire 4 is a pretty huge mobility skill, air 5, air 3, earth 4 and earth 5 are very good when you get targeted to chain CC and make space for yourself, earth 3 is team wide magnetic aura at a button press, especially funny when a shithead galeshot winds up his obvious machine gun bow skill and finally every overload is a stun break, and gives auras that also give improved protection, vigor and healing. The whole kit is very evasive and has alot of control and healing, then with avatar amulet + relic of castora you actually can pile on pressure and not make yourself such an easy target, air overload in particular is very deadly for anyone caught in it, especially if you prime it with an air 3 + 5 to exhaust stun breaks, you give teamwide stunning auras whilst shitting out damage in the field, bonus if you are safe enough to follow up with meteor shower + lava font, otherwise you can go to earth to do a quick eruption followed by some defensives or go back to water to heal

Saying all that I did burn out on spvp due to the absolute state of its playerbase these days, but I had a lot of fun, and moving to wvw with cele gear and buffs feels like taking off the ankle weights, the average pvp skill of wvwers is low compared to high elo spvp in its active periods
>>
>>567465724
It's boonballing that's brain off repetitiveness imo, small scale is dynamic and fights are never the same, and then you even form rivalries against regular enemies (currently stalemated against a dickish deadeye I run across a lot who seems to be the bane of my team). PvE is what gets super repetitive for me, the events go the same way every time if you are doing them regularly on a rotation.

>>567466785
For pure damage Ele spear is far superior and actually does AoE damage within its radius rather than relying on rng fireballs to connect, it's a shame too because it's kind of goofy, the vfx are obnoxious and staff is just cooler class fantasy, spear does leave you pretty defensless outside of your utility skills though so you really do need a minimum amount of people with you or be defending from walls

If you go right after reset, there's a crew or two that do it every fucking day.

I've just given up on expecting anything from randoms, lately I've just been playing celestial druid and shit out a few mediocre heals when the team craps out. I don't know if I've ever seen a public convergence where everyone targeted by demon knight runs out, always see people getting downded by meteors. They don't even use their overpowered warclaws as a get out of jail free card, just stand and get gaped. This game would be dead if it required any amount of skill.

Your problem is not dumb players, but shit devs that don't know how to design encounters. The only way to learn the fights is to brute-force them with trial-and-error. Not everyone bothers, and not everyone does a fight frequently enough to internalize the rules.

If ArenaNet weren't shit at designing fights, they'd go better. Look at WoW. It pulls off fights with even more mechanics because they make it impossible to miss big telegraphs from the bosses,

>>567549935
Yep. And the boon system is retarded.
You have to stack up to make sure you're in range, and a lot of boons are limited to 5 players, so instead of everyone spreading out and only stacking up for specific mechanics like in every other MMO, the default for everyone is to stack up so you can't see shit.

The fact that you often can't even tell if you're still in melee range and can lose DPS because the boss stepped back 4 feet without you realizing is damning.

I didnt even say that dude. I was innocently asking if throttling player numbers in the maps would alleviate the visual clutter clutter since that was one of the grievances. One of the nice things about GW1 was the 8-man parties so only 8 players were in the overworld (outside of outposts) at any given time. I thought less jade mechs and ritualist spirits would have been a good thing but apparently it elicits the same viceral response as calling a black person the N word, killing their mother and raping her lukewarm corpse. Yeesh.

Well whats the solution then if not toning down the noise and pollution? 50 people casting meteor shower is still 50 people casting meteor shower, you cant tone that down without making it nigh impossible to see a single meteor shower. Its an inherent problem to having a billion different people playing in the same space. Yeah its cool seeing massive crowds, but when that entire crowd is casting particle effects youre gonna have a bad time. Trying to play with screenshake enabled is a recipe for disaster since the earth is constantly quaking.

This is pretty much the reason why I did the new map meta twice and don't want to do it again

the best thing they can do with vloxx is use him as basically a back ground character we have to deal with long term like joko or scarlet
if they just wrap it up and kill him next patch that would suck, the reason new villians dont hit as hard is cuz they are never given enough time to breathe before being killed for the next big bad

every dragon was way more of a constant long term problem, even joko was invading central tyria for a time

i can even see the best use case for vloxx being exactly like joko in early PoF, a potential ally in an "enemy of my enemy" way

>>
>>567652030
if you are using mounts while playing hot for the first time you are literally making it harder on yourself, those maps were designed to be navigated from the ground and occasionally with a glider. if you use mounts there without already being familiar with the layout you will end up lost in roots and sticks constantly because you were never meant to go that fast or be there in that way

players used to be better at the game and wanted more difficult content
>>
>>567652121
>>567652121
I'm been thinking about how shitty the LFG is a lot lately. Feels like even if they just create a new interface with everything visible and add numbers to each section, that would be huge. Like it says Dungeons (2) to show there are two groups recruiting in that group. I love helping noobs through dungeons for nostalgia sake but I have to click each category specifically and then if I ever want to check again I need to keep clicking, even if it's 10 seconds later, and plus there's a timeout feature so you can't click too fast or it waits an extra few seconds to load.
Alternatively, if there was an easy way to see at a glance how many players were on maps, that'd be great too.
>>
Remember when HoT came out and everyone loved it and thought it would get even more challenging and tense and the world be oppressive going forward? lol.

>>567653519
They need to add in a quick play for dungeons. It should let you select all paths you're willing to do and then group you up automatically. There are a few paths I've never done and I kinda want the achievements but it's just never gonna happen with the LFG.

Conduit is a skill-spam spec where your weaponskills take a backseat, pretty versatile across Power/Condi, DPS/qDPS/I guess you can heal too.
Vindicator is just a Power DPS, roleplays as a Final Fantasy dragoon by turning the dodge into a Jump attack. Technically it can heal but it's more of a novelty.

Current builds for the older specs are solid. Herald is a girlfriend class, low damage, easy to play, high group utility. Renegade is one of the best burst-damage specs in the game.

Heal Vindicator would be cool if they touched up on the boons for it

I really wish this game had a way to track map completion outside of checking the current zone in the map screen. Just some checklist, it doesn't even have to be an achievement worth points.

its not probably an engine rewrite of the current game they'd be stupid to try and pull a gw3 in this market
so yeah maybe
>>
>>567915923
It's not an engine rewrite. Besides the abundant evidence that it's a different game, porting GW2 to Unreal would be a massive expense for... what? It would maybe get a modest amount of new players, but in terms of cost it's like investing in a new game without anywhere close to the sales of a new game.
Yeah FFXIV did it but that was an entirely different set of circumstances, and more or less an entirely different game anyway.
>>
>>567915923
It's gonna be like how retail wow is basically wow 2 yeah
>>
>>567915923
It's very clearly a new game but it's going to be complementary to GW2, not the retarded "they're ending GW2 to launch GW3" idea that the Youtube retards are pushing.
It'll be like Path of Exile 1/2 where both games are alive and they stagger releases so that sometimes GW2 is more populated and sometimes GW3 is more populated.

It'll probably be closer in structure to GW1 but with GW2+ levels of movement and animation-based combat. Half the reason they're putting work into Reforges is probably so they can gather live data on how a modern audience would react to a game like that, what the pain points are and which things about it are getting them to quit, etc.
Plus since it'll be PC/Console game from the ground up, they're probably going to make a play for all the Destiny players that have been homeless for the last couple years (and are going to be even more homeless now that the game's been shitcanned).

I don't think the wholesome chungus GW2 community is prepared for the unhinged masses who like the idea of playing an MMO but don't want to actually play an MMO. Plus when GW3 comes out they're going to have to deal with every grifting youtuber and streamer fanboy freaking out over gay NPCs and elonians.

>It'll be like Path of Exile 1/2 where both games are alive and they stagger releases so that sometimes GW2 is more populated and sometimes GW3 is more populated.

>>567923036
I mean if you want to dispute the idea that GW2's playercount would be higher than GW3's even at the point of like a GW2 expac launch versus a GW3 content drought then that's fine (the crossover likely wouldn't happen at all in the first year or so while GW3 has new-game smell on it anyway)
but they're certainly going to keep making expansions. The one word they've used over and over and over in nearly every interview since SotO launched is that they're going for a "sustainable" development model, and they're not doing any of the shit that you see when a game's developers are getting ready to put it into maintenance mode. And the manpower required for GW3 goes down considerably after it launches, so it's not like they're going to get to the part where GW3 suddenly needs a lot fewer people working on it and then go "Oh okay NOW we need all hands on deck"

It's literally free money for them to just keep GW2 going at its current pace. Unless GW3 winds up being a Fortnite-level financial success, there's basically no point at which they have more to gain from moving the current GW2 team to GW3.

True, but the result is that layoffs/not renewing contracts. That's how game development works. And GW3 will need the vast majority of devs that are left to keep a good release cadence.

if you want low intensity and want light armor, play necro
if you want low intensity and aren't locked to light armor, play guardian
>>
>>567976158
>lower intensity since i've been trying to cope with nerve damage in my arms.
Play specialised fire evoker, it's the lowest intensity ele spec possible and can still solo most content with a relic of zakiros to cover sustain, hell you can turn on action cam and just hold down mouse 1 for most of the open world if you really wish
>>
>>567977806
i'll have to give necro another try then. i liked it quite a bit while leveling with minions but it seems like the minions are just flat out bad in level 80 content, or at the very least no one seems to mention or recommend using them.
dh guard has been pretty good honestly, even using gs instead of hammer has been pretty doable.
>>567978058
i'll use this as an excuse to make a sylvari ele then and give it a try. worst case, they'll end up on chest duty like my mesmer.
thanks for the input anons.

though it was not KSC, i unfortunately joined a guild almost exactly like this on game launch. it was just a bunch of cliquey leadership faggotry telling gamers how to run their lives. never was it stated as 100% rep, so why would they get so butthurt if the rule was never laid out to the player when they join? fuck them. the guild fell apart after what shit they pulled on me about the repping. the more rules put in place, the less fun the player will have just by existing in the guild. i'm glad i told them to fuck off because i enjoyed playing the different game modes, and they didn't play wvw. i found my way elsewhere and was a lot more content with myself and my gaming experiences. honestly, everything can be done without guilds and their drama and faggotry. like the other anon said, just grab their buffs and get the hell out and enjoy "single" life for a while.

>>
>>567989879
Marauders with zakiros would have better sustain if you want to camp fire compared to trail/cele, especially since fire capstone scales burning with power instead of condi

Tempest is fairly low intensity but still nothing beats the ease of specialised elements, it's the constant switching of elements that strains your hand mostly when playing ele
>t. Actually developed an RSI after grinding spvp on ele once

yeah i've seen harb and it's on the fucking list. love me a lifesteal heavy spec.

noted. if i were to step things up would a similar build using more damage focused stats function well in fractals or strikes? the easy ones, not CM.

What car would each race be?
Sylvari is probably modern Electrics
Charr - American Muscle and pickups
Asura - Japan cars, toyota or hondas
Norn - some EU cars, Volkswagen?
Humans - what are the most religious cars lol?
>>
>>567991274
I've run it in easy level fractals and strikes yeah, you'll have to see where your limit is on that, for more challenging content I do eventually move over to cele stats and a more well rounded but higher intensity build

I would say cele support tempest is still medium intensity and will be useful at all levels of endgame instanced content

Forgot to mention, scepter+warhorn for all open world content, same or staff for support role in instances

I wouldn't really use focus outside of PvP/wvw, daggers are higher intensity because they require more positioning and mobility and they are imo more of a pvp weapon anyway, other stuff like swords and spear are more niche high intensity builds for wvw

>>568033560
Maybe vindicator/GS rev.
>>
>>568033560
ranger GS is probably one of the better designed weapons in the game imo. the 252 combo feels nice, the leap is good for mobillity, the block is okay. would be better if it made more noise when you block an attack like rev GS.
>>
>>568039951
something ive noticed
most of the heart of thorns elite specs have really god shit sound design
>>
>>568033560
Axe/axe+Greatsword Power Soulbeast(Ranger), Sword/sword+Greatsword Power Vindicator/Renegade/Herald(Revenant), and Axe/axe+greatsword Power Berserker(Warrior). Power Guardian elite spec builds primarily use greatsword, but they don't use a combination of those weapons you want along with it - you can use sword/sword with guardian but it doesn't feel good. I saw some people messing around with greatsword on Power Untamed(Ranger) for a bit, but I haven't seen anything final yet from it on whether it is good or not
>>
>>568033560
>ranger greatsword
fun weapon that unfortunately got hit with power creep. It's not bad, but newer options are better
>guardian greatsword
a popular classic for a reason: it's powerful and the one-two punch of combo fields and finishers is very satisfying.
>necromancer greatsword
do you like spinning? do you like winning?
>mesmer greatsword
it's a ranged weapon somehow
>warrior greatsword
outdated weapon stuck in the past that's clunky to use. good damage on paper but the inability to move while using it's most powerful weaponskill makes it impractical.

whats the worst elite spec in the game
just the one that is absolute shit
>>

Specter. It was nerfed to hell on release. Had numerous nerfs after too many people cried. It feels like shit to play and it only works well with one stat combo.
>>
>>568053549
Spellbreaker
>>
>>568053549
None, frankly. "Worst" specs are bad mostly because they require more effort to play, while not giving extra benefits. Some have wonky, cumbersome mechanics, that go against GW2 combat design. But overall even the most selfish, one-trick elite specs do good dmg and can sustain themselves to complete any content.

To be fair, starting with SotO maps got very unoptimized. Devs should know majority of their players have 6yo+ mid range PCs and laptops. Current team are lucky core game devs were god-tier at optimizing multiplayers games.

Holosmith
It does the same damage as all the other engi specs with the added benefit of no support options and blowing yourself up if you're not careful. It was the spec that actually made me buy the PoF&HoT expansion pack but once the shininess wore off I switched to scrapper because it's better in every way
Honorable mentions go to Specter and Galeshot.
Specter because casting the wells is the worst cast in the game, it either doesn't pick up the input or I cancel the input, and also takes forever to cast
Gaylshot, because instead of making a spec that works off longbow they added a shroud-like longbow thingy that hits like a wet noodle and I don't enjoy it at all.
