Sabetha is actually large enough that you can sometimes read her animations. This is breaking my immersion terribly and I hope they fix it.

Continuing my attempts to get better at pvp and derailing the thread from its rightful birdchat origins, is there any way to activate Dragonhunter trap stacks as Thief without just getting completely mauled by them? I had a game earlier where I walked onto a point at ~12k HP and promptly died to Dragon's Maw + Procession of Blades before the knockdown from Dragon's Maw had even ended. The freaking Dragonhunter wasn't even there, he ran back after the traps had downed me to stomp me  Also is it cool if I keep asking dumb baby pvp questions? Goons seem more or less like they know what they're doing and this stuff is crazy hard

Smaller groups can now prevent an objective from upgrading by preventing dolyaks from reaching that objective. https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/game/wuv/World-vs-World-Holiday-Sneak-Peek It's not much, but its something.

OH GOOD and it only took them half a god drat year. Of course this is also assuming they don't yet again say they've added it and then go ahead and not actually add it. edit: Seriously this isn't even a balance issue that needs to wait for a big balance patch, it's a long outstanding bug that could and should be easily rectified. Even if they plan to completely rework it in the balance patch they can still change it in the mean time to whatever it was actually supposed to be when they increased its cooldown. check out my Youtube fucked around with this message at 01:33 on Dec 19, 2015 |

Generic Octopus posted:HoT was more disappointing than anything; it just didn't add much, and a lot of what it did add was sorta poorly thought out. Masteries are sort of a hassle, but you don't really need to get too deep into any of them. The Elite specs are either really good or suck profoundly depending on your class. Gold rewards got stripped from dungeons, so if you ran those for money you're sol. Otherwise the game is much the same.

Thief is really fun, it's just really badBaron Von Pigeon posted:I really like my p/p daredevil. I just think it would be a lot more fun if he wasn't hilariously ineffective. Yeah this. I love D/P thief and have a good time playing it, I just don't do anything useful ever because the mobile roaming 1v1 class can't 1v1 anything in the game unless you badly outplay them. I play it in Unranked to blow off steam when I'm frustrated with Ranked. Magres fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Dec 19, 2015 |

I absolutely love my staff/shortbow daredevil to the point where I've stopped playing and only play my chronomancer and berserker when I specifically need them for something. Sure, maybe it isn't great for pvp, but it's a monster in pve and I'm by far the fastest class in the game.

Otherwise, no. I've lost track of the number of poor thieves I've oneshotted with dragon trap+blender trap+fire trap. This is called "balance". edit: Also mesmers. Honestly, I think dragonhunter traps are the best weapon against mesmers. They just walk onto the wrong spot and it's *CHOMP!, ignite, blendblendblenddown

Yeah having played some Chrono I think their defensive tech is really proactive and not good once you're on the back foot, so if they step into a trap blender they're pretty hosed. Otoh there's like no reason for them to die to traps. Just put up the (incredibly long) evasion well on a point as you go in if there's a DH on it Magres fucked around with this message at 02:39 on Dec 19, 2015 |

Magres posted:Yeah having played some Chrono I think their defensive tech is really proactive and not good once you're on the back foot, so if they step into a trap blender they're pretty hosed. The evasion well is only 3 seconds and it now causes you to not be able to contest the point, so if you are arriving on time (i.e. as it is being de-capped/capped and not after) this is a bad strategy. That being said, you do not need to use Mesmer defense proactively in order to be very hard to kill. Sword/shield has more than enough defense to survive a trap blender after you've unwittingly set one off. The key to keeping your defenses up is to fit very small pauses between your active defense skills when you can and keep alacrity up as much as possible so that they recharge quickly. ApeHawk posted:I did my first GW2 raid today. Between people learning the raid and me doing Fractals and figuring out the Revenant DPS rotation is actually really simple, I'm starting to get excited for raids again after basically giving up on them after the first week.

So if you got that tree in your home instance that gives you a present a day, and if you log in every day, you'll get your dumb snow aura in just a bit over 30 years!
