Been playing Glint/Dwarf Revenant with Sword+Axe/Hammer in SPVP. It's utterly disgusting, like a Dragonhunter and Thief had some kind of uber baby that vomits team buffs. 1v2 people through sheer damage and sustain, stability stomp all day, the best defensive team buffs in the game. I fear the nerfs coming when people figure out just how gross non-Shiro rev is. Also Dwarf hammers are legitimately glitched. They stay up through everything, including dying, which is utterly hilarious if you plop your corpse down on a CQ point.

I haven't done any PvP since HoT. I have to imagine the elite specs and Revenant are making it a total and glorious clusterfuck right now.

Jhet posted:So I want to play with a 360 controller and I know it's been mentioned before in here, but I can't find any specifics, especially now with the action camera. Can anyone who's familiar with this drop a few links for me so I can actually play more often? All I can find is stuff that's three years old when I search for it. Or do you still need to use XPadder and I'm just SOL? Here's a guide: https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3pnbqq/how_to_use_a_controller_with_the_new_action_camera/

Thievery posted:I was enjoying the last story mission until the second "Massive Attack" and neither being shielded or using updrafts worked. What is even better is when you fail because of this and then it restarts the entire fight except for the parts of the island that have fallen away and now the rift is floating in space and you can't reach it.

Weirdly enough I haven't found this to be the case yet. I've only run into the occasional Reaper or Dragonhunter. It feels like I'm the only Scrapper even out there. I mean ffs I don't even run into Chronomancers and they seem tailor-made for PvP.

I'll occasionally see a Chronomancer or another Druid every once in a while. I can't tell the difference between Warrior and Berserker at all. Of course it might just be a case "these are the flashiest elite specs" and the ones that aren't flashy I don't notice.

Rifle however is pretty rare in sPvP due to how easy it is to fight against it. You can easily tell someone is a Berserker when they start glowing red, though. That's pretty much the main visual difference as few people use torch or any of the Berserker-only skills.

A proper berserker should be throwing fire everywhere and some of those Rage skills are actually quite good. Also more fire.

So, the bug where you don't get any rewards for 100%ing a heart of thorns map if you already had 100% world completion prior, is that something they are going to hand out the rewards to eventually in a patch, or am I permanently boned out of the items that are required for the collection from 100%ing the map? Or do I have to send in a support ticket or whats the situation on that.

You're not boned, once they fix it you'll get your rewards. Many people are on the same boat.

I've finished Scrapper, Chronomancer, and Herald. I think I like Scrapper best so far. I'm going to get my Necro to Reaper soon and maybe my Charrdian to Dragonhunter someday. I'm really bad at Guardian. Berserker, Daredevil, Druid, and Tempest are getting a pass. I understand Scrapper and kit swapping for survival. Drones play into being more mobile which is necessary in Maguuma. Chronomancer is nice, but I haven't been able to get a handle on Alacrity or phantasm builds. I'm still used to clone shattering. Herald seems boring. Turn on facets, poo poo out boons, auto attack.

Usually there's something going between 10pm - 1am PDT, so from your time estimate I guess around 7-10 in the morning? If you're in [GOON] just ask in chat or harangue me via whisper (BIAJ.4782). If I'm not around, Mercurius is usually doing one around the same time as well.

Mercurius posted:I have no idea how good this is in practice but it has 100% bleed/burn duration and tons of bonus condi damage and you can use your primal bursts all the goddamn time (both sword and longbow barf out fire everywhere). Also, critting something with burning puts burning on everything around the thing you crit. Hmmm. I cannot readily get Viper but I've toyed with the idea of going Dire to be a tank that makes your blood burn to death.

Chronomancer is great for shatters, and made shatter builds strong in PvE too. You get alacrity on shatters (and from your wells, which are all strong, and from your shield phantasms), together with either quickness (pvp) or regenerated phantasms (pve) on shatter. Congratulations, 4-illusion Mind Wrack every 7.2 seconds.

Nilgoow's build is basically the same as the one I posted with slightly different utility skills, Sinister instead of Viper and the sword crit talent instead of the condi damage from fury talent. I'm just a  and like to have as much condi duration as humanly possible so I'm seriously considering putting together a set of gear for that build I posted earlier.
