Power De-Creep. What would you adjust?
Antycypator.9874 replied to Lan Deathrider.5910's topic in Professions
I wonder how many actions can a player do in 3s with 100% more attack speed, but situational, non-permanent boost sounds much healthier for this game than literally living with quickness. -

Antycypator.9874 replied to Lan Deathrider.5910's topic in Professions
There's no point of nerfing classes, or buffing enemies. Just fix goddamn boons, because they're causing players to do at least 2x more damage. 1. Quickness — I see two solutions here: * Nerf action speed from 50% to maybe 33 or even 25% — Quickness is very common across all professions, everyone can generate it, sometimes without investing in Boon Duration. If it's so common, then make it weaker. * Reduce the amount of quickness across all professions. If we want to keep 100% boost from Quickness, then it shouldn't be permanent. Use quickness to burst stuff, don't make it a part of our lives. 2. Alacrity — could use a little rework. * Again: reduce the amount of Alacrity in the game and make it shorter, but stronger. 3. Might — too powerful for being so common. * Simply nerf numbers: stacks or just stats. -
Elementalist and Off-hand weapons, identity and feelings
Antycypator.9874 replied to Ban Daur.4831's topic in Elementalist
Dagger is absolutely the winner if it comes to off-hand elementalist weapon in PvE. Dagger is more damage, better support/healing and mobility than Focus — only Breakbar damage is little worse (Focus: 500, Dagger: 432), but Dagger skills are at much lower cooldown, so dagger wins anyway. Flamewall is good only against stationary targets, otherwise it's an useless skill, even WIldfire (Warhorn) seems to be much better (larger AoE, longer burns). There are two things that I don't like about warhorn: damage reduction for Lightning Orb, and lack of condi cleanse on water skills. Maybe if Dust Storm had interval reduced to 1 second. -
Do you like how your characters look?
Antycypator.9874 replied to Danikat.8537's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I have a charr thief (medium armor) and I'm actually proud of making decent looking outfits with all those very limited skins. Everyone who played Fashion Wars 2 as a medium/light armored charr probably know that 80% of skins are oversized trenchcoats with clipping tail, don't match with each other or just floats (shoulders). -
It happens only on charr character (or using Olmakhan combat tonic) when strafing left/right and moving backwards. Seems like marjority of animation is missing. It's really difficult to play axe thief when he bends like that all the time. I posted it previously under Art Issues topic, but I don't know if someone actually read posts there. Video on Streamable

Poll : Those who left vs Those who stayed.
Antycypator.9874 replied to rylien.3824's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Open World content is something that keeps me playing this game. I can play literally whatever and however I want, so I'm still having fun. -
That 3 seconds before trap can be triggered makes them situational, which means (for PvE) they're useless against everything weaker than champions. It's almost bad as Chronomancer's wells, because everything is going to die or walk off before final pulse.

Thoughts about GW3 [Merged]
Antycypator.9874 replied to tzaeru.3742's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
It's really funny how everyone went crazy because of "Guild Wars 3" appeared in literally one line of text, in a Google TRANSLATED article. You shouldn't expect anything before it's officially announced by ANet.- 876 replies

Thoughts about GW3 [Merged]
Antycypator.9874 replied to tzaeru.3742's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I doubt if GW3 will be just a copy of GW2 on new engine, with better graphics and new storyline/characters. What's the point? Try convincing old GW2 players to throw away all the progress they made just to start GW with better graphics. MMORPG is far from being the most popular genre, so creating another open world action RPG game seems risky. Maybe GW3 is happening, but as a completly different game — maybe it's a mobile game (mobile games are profitable, accessible to literally everyone). Maybe it's hack'n'slash? They're easy, can be loaded with microtransactions and work on different platforms. -
If you like daggers, Deadeye is probably the best option. Deadeye is literally what you're looking for — big crits.

PvE perspective: 1. Most fun: Deadeye, Holosmith, Scrapper, Harbinger. 2. Engaging: Catalyst, Weaver. Willbender, Dragonhunter. 3. Pretty fun, but not for too long: Untamed, Renegade, Reaper, Mirage. 4. Enjoyable only once a week: Bladesworn, Reaper. 5. Boring: Herald, Scourge, Vindicator, Mechanist, Firebrand, Tempest, Virtuoso. 6. Not worth playing cuz X spec is better: Daredevil, Chronomancer, 7. Unplayable: Specter, Druid. 8. [Special place for core professions] 9. NPC gaming: Berserker, Spellbreaker.
