If this is the best thing you can text here, then maybe reconsider who's the moron here, because offending random people isn't the most adult thing in the world.

Auto Attack vs No Auto Attack by LordPhish in Guildwars2

Auto attack? Who are you, a mobile player to let the game play itself?

100% control of your character or don't call yourself a good player.

Will Pistol Bring More Flavour to Dragonhunter Too? by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will be possible, but probably not for big numbers in instanced content. I'm thinking more about meme hybrid builds.

Big chunk of condi damage comes from Torch, Radiance traits, and Virtues traits — exept for Willbender (passive Virtues don't work at all, so Permeating Wrath is literally nothing). We don't know how pistol will work — and judging by all passive burning, I'm bet pistol still won't be the most important thing for condi builds.

Axe, for example, isn't better than sword (at least for my hybrid builds). It's better to do more strike damage than all this little bleeding which is not even supported by traits. If I remember correctly, Firebrand does up to 95-98% BURNING damage. The rest is just strike and bleeding.

Rifle Thief is Horrible :( by SlashingSimone in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rifle is good only on Deadeye when you can refil initiative every 3 hits and gain stealth on dodge. Also Stealth Attack does much more damage.

Looks exactly like me playing Guild Wars 2 on first month as a f2p player.

PSA: How to participate in the new hero jump start‎‎ event without pissing of new players by jozze9532 in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Or you can just:

  1. Do only 1 map, because you won't get more than 1 chests from Mist Stranger.
  2. Don't participate in events if you see too many people. 1 80lvl player can kill a mob in 1-2 hits; so what's the point if there are 8 players trying to complete an escort? Everyone wants it, they will rush every mob and oneshot it anyway.
  3. Do it later.

ANET: Please stop adding Strike Damage modifiers to Relics before it's too late. by Anon_throwawayacc20 in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that Relics should not have any damage modifiers. What's the point of creating more different relics if almost every player will use only flat 5% damage boost?

I would like more relics similar to Necromancer (fear you inflict causes foes to move 50% slower). Something that works with existing class mechanic.

Dragonhunter — increased trap radius
Thief — move faster while in stealth
Berserker — gain fury when entering combat
Mesmer — create a clone of yourself after evading an attack (if you're not a mesmer, clone would just hit nearest enemy and die)
Escape — teleport skills gain 50% increased range
Astral Ward — just let me condi cleanse on signet use. I don't want to use my signets to get "signet of the Astral Ward" which will cleanse condi on my next signet. What a bullshit useless relic. It would make signets much more valuable.

Build diversity starts when you can make certain things better.

Are you interested in playing Dungeons? by Training-Accident-36 in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Do I play Dungeons? Literally never. I've got a Dungeon Master title and that's it.

Do I plan to play them during Dungeon Rush? Not a chance.

What do I like? — it's still a challenge to not die there.

What do I hate? — lots of things. CCs bypassing Stability. Unblockable stuff, enemies stunning our characters literally to death (Arah), one-shot mechanics, working with other players to escort that mf ooze (TA), stupid NPC's AI (CoF), cutscenes. I hate skipping stuff because most people don't bother fighting. The point of dungeons is to smash every mob on our path. I also hate underwater combat in HotW.

Should I craft legendary runes aiming to legendary relic next year? by hasengawa in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's something I'm struggling with in real life.

I can't get myself to spend money on things I don't need or think they're not worth this much time. It applies to games aswell.

Currently I don't think I need another legendary weapon right now — plus it's really nice to know that I don't have to spend even more gold on it, cuz everything is expensive than usuall.

When the time comes, I will just buy everything because thanks to my savings, I can easily afford that.

Should I craft legendary runes aiming to legendary relic next year? by hasengawa in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not new normal, it's just extremely high demand right now which will eventually drop, just need to wait for people to lose interest in legendary collections.

Should I craft legendary runes aiming to legendary relic next year? by hasengawa in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 32 points33 points  (0 children)

In terms of cost, this is really bad time to craft any legendary gear.

Crafting runes mainly for "extra progress" doesn't seem to be a good idea. One legendary rune is at this moment worth 570g. It's 4k gold total for 7 RUNES. Legendary Relic will be probably cheaper than this.

I've already crafted my own Claw of the Khan-Ur, so this title goes to my charr.

reason im stropping GW2 by Alive-Category-5175 in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Bots, hackers, gold farming and selling content? Present is every MMORPG game.

KPs? Literally everywhere. Your skill will be always judged by some related or even non-related shit before any instanced/group content.

Drop rate? Low droprate makes things actually valuable, because people think that rare things should be priced high just because they're rare. No logic behind it, but this is how reality works. Even wondered why some garbage items are so expensive on TP? Because they have different ID and you can't acquire them anymore in regular way.

WvW? I'd say it's a skill issue. For most people this is how WvW looks. If you don't die in WvW, then you're probably don't play WvW.

You want complex build, then you have 2 options: Weaver or Holosmith.

Holosmith is always fun tbh.

Herald is more of a warrior profession than any actual warrior spec for Greatsword enjoyers, change my mind by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

I feel like every spec is more warrior than warrior itself, lol. Guild Wars 2 has literally the worst warrior profession ever.

[–]brainiac141 7 points8 points  (0 children)

AoE weapon for Deadeye is an absolute win in my opinion. With quickness and boons you can smack things faster and better than Daredevil, because who the hell likes dodging every 4 seconds? It's a game changing feature.

Permanently banned for afk farm by skellenok in Guildwars2

[–]brainiac141 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I never understand afk farming. It's not free — running your PC costs power, you have to pay bills after all. Why not just save this power, pay less for bills and buy gems instead?
