3.6 Just here because my boss won't let me put a TV in the bathroom

Thief and Mesmer have the same sword 3 effect

Personally I'd rather see other ranged 2's get rooted as well

When I'm out of combat there's usually a batsignal on the horizon showing me where my help is most needed.

Doesn't everybody have one?

If they survive the first 5 years of their lifecycle, bugs mature into features.

A grace note if you will

Just meditations build with DH swapped for radiance. I've used it okay-ish in the past but Holo and soulbeast eat you alive

Longbow 3 needs to be able to knock back without a major trait. It's too important. That would allow PvP DH to take Big Game Hunter. That damage boost would be insanely good for PvP DH. Please. Make it happen

> agreed the knock back from bow should be not in the traits it should be the bow who does that regardless. This also could free up trait space for something more interesting

It's not on the bow because it adds a stabo stack to all control effects... If I remember my DH traits correctly

Globe nearly 25,000 miles in circumference, speed of light, physics 101..

You get the idea

Back in my formative years we had these things called "LAN parties" where we'd make a temporary interweeb and play with no lag. I imagine such thing would still work, after all they did spend what.. 200k on those sPvP tournaments, flying people around.

Shame nobody asked them to patronize GvG

We're all kendolls, they already get a show just from armor choices.

Lowly cis-genders like me gets nuffin -_-

Is cis-gender the right term? I'm hanging by a fingernail with the campus lexicon. The other day one of our goons rattled off another half-donzen letters after LGBT and I felt very old.

Yeah guys, he's only 1500 range and was visible for almost a second, git gud

Did they get their own quasi-moto?

Lol.

At least they can't bug gravel shot any more, you missed out.

Not that tapping is trolling..

But angry forum threads are troll food. This validates his whole afternoon

I have one of each and a third somewhere between.

The first diamond legends were EotM grinders

> DH had a major buff. However, it is a none trap buff. I played few games using LB and GS, rad/DH/valor and had huge success. You can easily hit 7k TS (I hit 8-9k a couple of times). Landing GS 2 on a teethered target is nearly one shot.

Agreed

Finally being liberated from travelers/speed runes is EPIC for WvW roaming. Finally, all those lovely runes at our disposal for something outside a duelling build <3

Is this about other people seeing which rank you are?

Because, you know... You don't have to use simple name plates if you want extra junk over everyone else's head

Maybe gw3 will have servers in Iceland so the western hemisphere can finally be known as the bestdern hemisphere... By everyone else.

Because we already know . ;)

He's obviously been fighting BGs famous third floor catas.

There's no magic that turns these choices into a good build. I'm not sure why you started this thread <,<

Some games have a lifecycle of less time than it's been coming

I know they said it's far away, but the glacial pace of WvW development is in itself cause for resentment.

If it get charged, it needs to be a combat buff

Firebrand doesn't have all it's stats without quickness.

Though that passive trait in itself is a personal dislike for me

That's the point though
