This group of mooks is probably the biggest reason I have bad memories of the Living story. Well, that and bad writing in general. None of these characters is an interesting person except for Canach, who apparently has done the right choice and left them.

Here's a list of good NPC's I want in my in-game team, ANet. Make it happen.

- Canach
- Zombie Tybalt
- That lovely asura female who's still salty about her husband getting killed (it would make for good dialogue)
- Evon Gnashblade
- A tengu
- Poobadoo

i was going to say that asura would be a really good addition to the group but actually all of the things you said are good ideas

You are literally losing money the longer you ignore this article
Someone made a thread about this a few weeks ago as well, and someone pointed out that it's not really a big deal. As Reaper you hardly spend any time in shroud at all, and even if you do the shroud-5-4-leave thing (which in some cases you might not even do considering shroud is great for cc and emergencies so you might want to make sure it's not on cd) the slightly lower condition damage and duration of those bleeds are not a huge deal. As Druid, i don't think most builds use only one mainhand and one offhand, and even if they did they'd probably be full viper/zerk and it wouldn't affect the healing from celestial avatar at all. Even in the case of some zealot sword setup the small amount of healing power lost should not have a noticeable impact.

Holy gently caress these are awful.

So, this is a combination of the old Destiny's Edge team and the newer Destiny's Child team? I guess they can't just call them Destiny, though, since they have an MMO competitor named that? Ugh.

I mean the easy way to handle it is to have people submit their own suggestions, then an intern culls the list down to 3-5 and the community votes on those.

But that requires them to pay an intern. And to have someone else double-check his list. Too much resource investment: how are they supposed to have funds left to make a new undyable pair of wings?

I know they added some weird new auto-equip feature to these toys so they wouldn't be as annoying when entering combat, but do you still have to reequip them every time you load into a new map?

Yes

I'm not sure why it isn't just an equipment slot thing and from the hero panel you can turn it off if you're tired of it

Do we have any Shiro/Mallyx Condi Rev players around who wouldn't mind writing up some play tips? I've finally gotten a good handle on Shiro/Glint Power Rev, but I've basically never played Condi Rev and I'd like to learn it, partly because it'd give me some really nice flexibility for my Rev play in sPvP when the enemy team is like a Mesmer, two Necros, and two Warriors and all of Power Rev's anti-Power tech is basically useless.

i did shiro/mallyx for a while and it was fun but not as strong as staff/glint

Magres
Jul 14, 2011
yeah thats really the feeling im getting, staff/glint just has better burst and better defenses and better mobility and is just kinda better as long as you're not fighting 4 condi damage

e: on the other hand its really really fun to have necros think they can poo poo on you just for you to be That Revenant that has ~70% Resistance uptime and loads them up with confusion as soon as they hit shroud

e2: actually I'm really coming around on condi rev, you can't hold up to focus fire the way power rev can, but jesus you can vaporize people with condis

e3: biggest thing I'm loving about condi rev in spvp is that people definitely do not expect it

I can't speak for shiro, but I've played a mallyx/glint rev for a long time, though mostly in PvE so not sure if that's helpful :v:

Jul 14, 2011
Something I'm having a lot of trouble with is that Mallyx has zero stunbreaks, so if I flip to Mallyx and get stunned I'm going to lose at least half my health

I want to make Ruby in the near future so I'm just playing Engi for now, cause I'm much better at Engi than Rev

There isn't really one big streamer, woodenpotatos is probably the biggest, but goons hate him and he streams mainly EU time I believe. Gladomer is good for roaming wvw and ranger stuff, nike is good if you want to see sperg level dungeon/fractal running. Docgotgame does wvw in groups, and gets triggered when maguuma snipes him. Ostricheggs is good for spvp, as well as XerreX, who tries lots of different classes and builds, and posts them. This guy made a really nice series on the fractals if you want to learn about them before stepping in.

RIP Dontain. He still streams but he never plays GW2 anymore which is a shame. Seemed the removal of SAB broke him and I don't suppose he ever came back when it did.
