So either you risk losing 1 or both structures.

T3 keep getting hit. Server Hero 1: Imma use siege. (1min later....it's useless) Server Hero 2: Imma Meteor Shower on them (Just sees block, block, block, block) Server Hero 3: Imma use pull and burst a few (Just sees immune, immune, immune) Meanwhile Plat Vet at Spawn transformed as a Choya: You can't fight that with our numbers. Back cap later. Just take supply and don't be a bag. Come to spawn, we play dancing Choya :)

If person is standing on edge of wall on inner, mesmer pull can sometimes be unreliable. What does work is a Reaper gs5. It kinda pulls the enemy onto the blob and the fall is like they stuck in slow-mo.

This thread might magically disappear tomorrow with op getting a warning.

Pew Pew Ranger...i can still murder mounted enemy with one wolf pack + rapid fire :)

I kinda feel for CD being caught in the middle of all this. Its gonna be a sad 2 months for them as i see the server that drops from tier 3 will always win and move while these guys are stuck.

First time i entered WvW was when the devs were making crappy decisions and stuffing things bad. One such decision was they remove the "adept training manuals" and other manuals and linked unlocking traits to specific events across pve and wvw events. (some events were bugged for ages) One such event was be-friending the frogs in EBG. So many gankers used to hide around there, farming any pve noobs such as me that came to unlock the trait. It was sad. Some time after that i came for gift of battle and stayed in wvw.

Hell Chrono, at this point, is LUCKY to have gotten self shatters back. Who knows what else Anet may have waiting for thief or any class for that matter. > > > > > > Do you think Mirage got more nerfs than thief? It didnt. Thief pretty much does nothing outside of being the most mobile, because they didnt touch that for the longest time. That just happens to be the only thing making thief good in PvP. In WvW thief has been trash for a while. > > > > I remember people thinking Mirage was kitten after they nerfed, axe damage, super speed on MC, MC duration, vigor on MC. They reduced torch damage, they removed or reduced most sources for confusion because Mirage was "too bursty" Then they reduced clones one scepter and staff, changed cooldowns on blink, decoy, and others because it "had no counter". People thought surely that is all, mirage is trash now, but no it continued. they further reduced damage pretty much across the board for mesmer in pvp/wvw, they took away chronos self shatter, Mirages 2nd dodge, and then they nerfed mesmer a little more just before giving chrono back self shatter. Yea I think Mirage has had the most nerfs. impactful nerfs too. It has very few build options now and hey all have hard counters. > > Sure, Mirage is worse, but it doesnt have more nerfs. No class does. How many other classes you see running around on 1 dodge?

Well, it looks a non ranger main has tried the class and provided their opinion. I watch this guy's clips cos he provides good guides / tips on playing mesmer/chrono.

Are ppl using scourge minion build as bots in WvW? I got this 1 guy to chase me off a cliff to his death and then 2nd time made him run after me into murder gate npc who slaughtered him. Some kind of scepter minion build where they start off with dumping tons of condi.

I'd pay for a "siege disabler" that plays sad violin music during the disabled period and slowly turns the catas/trebs 180 degrees away from structure they were hitting.

Thanks for this. I'm not a reaper so the hits on the skill's description did not make sense. I was just testing and I think you are right in it being 9 hits. The first 8 seem like normal and 9th is one that spikes.

> @"Leonidrex.5649" said: > @"Veprovina.4876" > 3 GS 3 is fine, I find nothing wrong with it, its a throw away skill that is quick to cast, easy to land and deals alright damage, plenty other classes have similar skills. It could be just me with Aussie lag but whenever i cast GS3, i feel like i'm immob in place for 1 second or something.

A specific spec has 1 dodge and other has 3

Gift of Battle. Trying to make Conflux. Also i saw Mukluk mention that Conflux and Slumbering Conflux can be equipped at once. Can anyone who has confirm?

CoR can still hit like 8k, so i won't say its destroyed.

Just pay bounty to "Lord Hizen" and give him the names of ppl that claim "thief is fine or say l2p or i can deal with stealth" so he can gank them on his DE and post vids about it.

Maybe they'll come do couple forum.....*cough*cough* reddit posts and then be away working on EoD.
