Im sitting here waiting for ascended ARMOR AND WEAPONS to be obtainable WITHOUT this stuuuupid and overwhelming crafting system or the stupidly long pvp grind. Can we have it the different way pls.

You are right OP. Maybe some people enjoy playing warrior. Like me i do love playing warrior because it gives me a wider picture of the game, when im lying down my face in the mud and i could watch whats behind the floor textures on thd pvp arena. Its amazing

I wish warrior could wear a broomstick so when lying on the floor in pvp he could brush something off.

I do not understand why they nerfed a profession barely played by anyone. They have to play nerf darts, no other explanation is there.

> @"Shao.7236" said: > So the reasoning is, make everyone overpowered so nobody can be underpowered because tipping the balance in equal match ups is too difficult? > > **I've heard that one before and it's not doing so well in other games**. I remember when people were overpowered they were also untouchable and you had to spam low cooldown as the only way to win. > > I find it even more ironic that you look at duels from before feb patch on youtube, those that had high stakes and they'd take just as long to finish, except people could spam or do ridiculous damage with 1 effortless skill. In which games? Can you elaborate? BDO has this kind of balance and pvp is really fun, fast and exciting with few exceptions. Sure there is different combat style, but they dont nerf everything and everyone is happy to receive buffs, no class is completely useless in pvp. You wont tank damage, but you have a tons of way to avoid the said damage, believe it or not there is a way to make your character unkillable in this game too. And do you know best part about it? BDO has more players than it EVER had before, more and more plays it, despite it being a horribly pay2win game with excessive amount of grind. When GW2 is losing players, and i see lion arch getting empty and system asking me to change my town in the evening at 18 o clock on friday. WoW in BFa was in a pathetic state when it came to pvp for THE EXACT SAME REASON GW2 IS RIGHT NOW. Nerfing everything to the ground and making everyone a sponge for damage. The best pvp was in legion where you could deal hundred of thousands of damage to few people with right timing and right combo that was amazing stuff. FFXIV pvp is a joke also for the same reason GW2 is, takes forever to kill anyone, its still somehow worse because healers are overpowered there.

The pathetic state of pvp in this game is caused by developers chasing the same thing FFXIV devs did with their pvp. FFXIV oversimplified their pvp and killed it clean, making it unplayable with queue times exceeding 1 hour mark for anyone who want to play it. Same is happening right now with GW2. Instead of playing the same profession in all modes, you have a full experience in PVE, half of it in WvW and a shallow shadow of profession you play in PVP. They literally murdered pvp with all those useless changes.

Guildwars 2 devs should reconsider removing the pvp completely from the game or give everyone 1 class to play with auto attacks. This way will be balanced.

I need to take some lessons with sasuke uchiha so i could learn sharingan, so i could play this profession effectively without dying to a veteran mob skill out of blue. > > You are doing it wrong. The trick is not to get killed by a breeze as the elementalist, but to **kill the enemies** with a breeze. That would be the case if ele had any good damage. Berserker has higher damage, higher burst and is like 3 times as tanky.

I too love to get killed by any single breeze of air on my elementalist. I need to take some lessons with sasuke uchiha so i could learn sharingan, so i could play this profession effectively without dying to a veteran mob skill out of blue.

> @"kharmin.7683" said: > Hard no. I really wish people would stop comparing GW2 and WoW. The business models are entirely different. Transmutation charges are easy to obtain and relatively cheap if one needs to purchase them. I prefer this current arrangement in lieu of a subscription model which would probably turn more players away. Whh not? Wow, ffxiv, lotro and other games are competition to gw2. Black desert online for instance allows you to change everything unlimited amounts of time for 15$ a month and is a free to play game. So? 15$ for unlimited changes a month >>> 3 changes for 10$ > @"Astralporing.1957" said: > On the other hand, in truth FF XIV's glamour wardrobe system is vastly inferior to GW2's one. And by saying "vastly" i mean exactly that - FF XIV's system, compared to what we have here, is _very_ primitive and limited. I'd love to have in FF XIV something that would be even half as good as the wardrobe here. > Idk when you played ffxiv the last time but nope. Ffxiv has a wardobe with 12 slots, that allows you to create 12 different looks you want to apply on gear, it cost you nothing and you could change your look to a preset you made in few clicks.

I dont think you could manipulate the market so aggressively. The cause of this is more trivial. There are less and less newbie players selling their coins and a lot of more advanced ones who got ascended gear and try to make legendary eq.

It gets expotentially more difficult at HoT maps and later. Tell them to have patience

Oh and adding a salt to the wound. Why does ele doesnt have a good ranged weapon or a reliable and fast aoe with it? Why is this class forced to go melee range, when it dies by a single hit from a boss of any sort? Have you ever seen a mage in ANY game out there in the world that would be completely useless when using a mage weapon - a staff? I never did, but i guess guildwars2 and its developers tried their best to make the class design of this game make absolutely no sense at all. Not to mention, majority of the skills on the hotbar plays no significant role to the gameplay, while other professions has skills packed with utility buffs, mechanics and more. Elementalist? All he has is some damage, some condi, have fun. Jesus this profession sucks.

Your main problem are your expectations you put in z combat and classes of this game. The class design here is so horribly random that makes absolutely no sense at all if you ever played any other mmorpg. You should not do that, and instead try out all classes until you find the one suiting you. However too bad for you, because this game balance also sux a big one and you will have a hard time deciding either way like me. I like warrior its good but its also super boring. I like elementalist way better but guessvwhat, it super stinks in pve and i die to every single thing, i feel the same as you, disappointed. It is what it is, you could try giving it a chance or go play other game. Imo the second is currently better.
