GW2: Random Complaint Thread: Complaining about Complaints since day 1

[Necronus]

Completely unblockable/gigantic marks, corrupt boon always working, siphoning more than 29hp... we'd be awesome.

Spoiler: show

I still do pretty well in WvW though

I want Axe/Focus to be not crappy. I use it in PvE ... cause well ... anything "works" in PvE to some degree, but Axe/Focus is to the other weapon choices as Necro is to the other classes. I mean, playstyle wise ... I was immediately attracted to Axe/Focus ... but then I learned how neutered it was due to being OP in beta or something. I hit people like wet noodle in PvP when I made the folly of giving those a try.

[Lucavi]

As a Mesmer, I was never OP, just hard to pin down and kill. I'm the kind of guy that's going to fade away as soon as I see the odds aren't in my favor, so I'd pop a lot of clones, stealth myself with my final clone, then roll out. I never had some massive insta-kill spec or anything silly, because I never look at other people's specs, and just make my own.

I see Mesmers as frustrating, but for a completely different reason. Yes, phantasmal duelists are badass with laser pistols, but they can still be burned down. Yes, Mesmers are strong underwater, but use a ranged weapon against them and the fight becomes a bit easier. They aren't in the same class as thf in terms of of annoyance because they cannot blow you up nearly as fast as a thf, even if they abuse quickening. What they can do, however, is whittle you down while stealthed, and I could see that being pretty annoying. It takes a hefty cooldown to do it, though.

Confuse makes you play patient against one, which can be frustrating, especially if you think that 1v1 is gonna turn into a 10v1 if you take your time...

[Corrderio]

At this point in time I really wish they'd give admins, GMs, or w/e the ability to reset enemies that are glitched. SCs are still glitched, WvW champions are also (and it's annoying watching people try to take a glitched tower), and even Jorg managed to get glitched

[Shiyo]

THF burst is going to be adjusted because arenanet listens to their community and takes their PVP very seriously.

[ClarkSammich]

Honestly, all this shit boils down to is flavor of the month bitching.
In BWE 2, everyone bitched about necromancer. Was really justified, wasn't it?
Then everyone bitched about guardian, and it tapered off.
Then everyone bitched about warrior, decrying it as the most overpowered thing ever created by man. Then they stopped.
Then everyone bitched about ranger, and stopped.
Then people started bitching about thief and it got nerfed, and it's tapering off.
Now people are starting to bitch about mesmer, a class regarded as completely fucking useless for the majority of the time the game has been available to play.

As for thief's single target burst being unavoidable, you know what else isn't avoidable? Bull's charge > hundred blades. Oh, wait.

[Belragga]

The main issue with mesmers right now is they can cover all 3 major pvp roles just by changing spec. They can be burst, bunker or an amazing roamer with their portals, especially on the final tourney map. Good luck keeping the enemies trebuchet down if they have a portal mesmer. Also because clones basically troll new players, it's easy to roll them and the games only a month old so...

[Shiyo]

Every class has 3+ break stun skills.

[ClarkSammich]

Every class has 3+ break stun skills.

Yes? http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Stun

Ranger has two, but fuck them, they're OP anyway.

Edit: Also I meant that facetiously. Hundred blades isn't particularly hard to get out of.

[Alderaan]

Every class has 3+ break stun skills.

And how many do most people equip at one time? I agree it's completely avoidable but there's more warriors than any other class.

Warrior's issue is their bullshit might stacking which will get looked at sooner than later.

My complaint:

99% world completion. Only missing 2 bugged skill points -_-

[Aristio]

My two only problems with Thief is the gap closer on Heartseaker and the ridiculous damage multipliers for Backstab. Other than that, I currently have no problems against random Thieves/Mesmers in SPVP. Oh, you went Stealth? GRENADEZ! Oh, you have three Illusions up? GRENADEZ! What's this I'm hearing about Mesmers' OP down state? How about this: They go down. Wait 1 second for them to pop clone, then another for them to come out of stealth and kill the one that appears late. The absolute best Thieves I've have the honor of being stomped by don't utilize Stealth or burst mechanics; they outplay their opponent with the crazy amount of mobility and dodge utilities they have. With a Shortbow and a Pistol/Dagger, just try to catch these Thieves.

My random complaint: WHY AREN'T ENGINEER KITS EFFECTED BY WEAPON TRAITS!?

[Corrderio]

They need to do something about WvW. Being stuck in the qeue for 2 hours sucks.

EDIT: Hit detection for objects (Barnacles, supplies, etc.) is also getting rather annoying.

If the Mesmer spams 1 they'll break stealth before their clone pops. The real one has the arrow on their head.. I don't know how people miss it.

[Kiarax]

Yeah... there's like half a dozen ways to tell which is the real one. No buffs (signets, boosters, etc), no title, no icon above their head, even just the way they act is a huge tell most of the time.

[Aristio]

Mesmers who use signets and boosters make my day a lot easier as well. I think it was stated here that this game has the biggest, "Grass is greener on the other side," effect I've seen in a while.

Every class has some problem they feel they want addressed:
Warriors: Need to be in range/Wants to be in melee
Guardian: Not enough damage/Wants to be longer range
Engineers: Everything but Elixirs is bad
Thieves: Steal sucks/Too low of survivability
Ranger: Pets are unresponsive/unreliable
Mesmers: Damage too relied on phantasms
Elementalist: Not enough damage for low survivability
Necromancers: No direct damage build/Death Shroud sucks.

If you like how the class plays, then play that class. As you and everyone else is complaining about some other class being OP, when they think their class needs the most attention.

[Koul]

As a Engineer I lulz at everyone. Just like Aristio. bombs, grenades, aoe spam all over the place. dots dots dots. blind. dots. Oh, mega condition removal with every swig of a potion/toss. I think it's funny how engineer seems to be the ignored class. Nobody seems to know how strong it is.

and underwater with grenades. holy fuck balls. good luck surviving.

Eng stunlock me and make me unable to control my char 24/7 TT

Ehmry Bay WvW got hacked by both Yak's Bend and Maguuma last night. Yak's teleport hacked the orb off the map so we couldn't get it. Maguuma glitched a keep of theirs so it was unattackable. I bet you neither server will be punished and we'll have to finish last with shit representation in WvW the rest of the week because arena net doesn't give a shit.

[Lucavi]

I was wondering why this morning Mag had every tower and keep fully fortified, even the ones that Yak is directly next to. Another week of Two factions not hitting one another because they fully upgraded after bombarding us. Oh, someone lost our keep as well, but last I checked, I had us a fortified Veloka. Who knows about now, though; the bads were so bad this morning that I logged in frustration.

[Eanae]

If arena net doesn't punish these two servers and make an official statement, I may as well quit. WvW is the entire purpose of playing this game. If it's decided by hackers and exploiters on day 1, why the fuck would you bother playing?

[Kiehl]

Wandering around this morning looking for the pirates that drop oranges, I find the vineyard with a bunch of grapes. How are there only 3 recipes for grapes and 2 are for dyes?! I want to make the super strong wine that makes you run around in a drunken rage with +150% power or something.
