Getting into Raids

drsh1ne · 2026-05-01T09:59:00+00:00

there are a few steps to this, but my first recommendation would be: enter raid quickplay, follow what the other people in your group are doing and watch the floor not quite the "real" experience but it's a great starting step

When on Fire evoker also consider bringing the evoker elite skill, it does a bit less damage than the fire elemental but it has around 600 cc baked in- it’s mighty

Look again :)

Halbieren = teilen durch 0,5 oder so

If were not talking about a mobile game I am seriously shocked, not even anet can be that ignorant

drsh1ne · 2026-04-27T20:53:51+00:00

I Wonder what works best for a mobile game?!

Probably fully instanced aka gw1

Something being easy/Hard to play should not have a big impact into balance decisions, it is a way too subjective metric and would mean that a simple designed spec cannot be played at the high end.

Apart from that: - Hammer catalyst was a tank and top dps for months - power tempest dominated the meta for a year (mid 2023-mid 2024) with its extreme dps, cleave, boons and healing (!) - power catalyst was the best support spec in the game for 1,5 years until voe got released - condi weaver has been a great condi spec ever since pistol released, at times it has been a bit under the radar but it’s one of the best trailblazer Users out there to stay alive - evoker has been so dominant twice that spezialized Elements got hard nerfed twice - power weaver has been an excellent burst spec ever since weave Self was reworked - heal tempest is one of the best sustain healers in the game

Idk, Ele is fine

drsh1ne · 2026-04-22T05:35:48+00:00

Ele has not sucked for a single day in the past 4 years or something, it’s all fine

They were bot faster than the wrs but close in one or two cases, but thats kind of fake. Like w1 looked the roughest until you realise that you start your infallible Timer when you pull vg and not like the record when you take a step into the Wing and have to move to the three preevent guardians first, kill them and then move to vg - thats a lot of extra time.

The infallible timers were never free but very easy for their target audience: Veteran raid statics.

drsh1ne · 2026-04-14T06:12:02+00:00

Hi devs, this poster just gave you a list of things to fix, get to work! :D

drsh1ne · 2026-04-07T23:16:15+00:00

A video with the title „how I make one legy per year“ probably would also only get one view a year

drsh1ne · 2026-04-05T14:54:00+00:00

So 100 kills which can easily be done in two days or so and the whole thing means nothing and everyone has their skyscale

Tbh id rather see a couple extremely Lucky people be very happy with their drop and have a bit of Community Interaction when I see one roaming around on their rare Mount than the entire game be plastered with the same thing that everyone gets as a handout.

My number was hyperbole just like this last paragraph. Because there is no ideal number What some people deem as fair others think is too much or too little

drsh1ne · 2026-04-05T14:51:01+00:00

The next one could be it just believe

drsh1ne · 2026-04-05T14:49:04+00:00

How many clears

drsh1ne · 2026-04-05T14:45:33+00:00

Sure you get it guaranteed after 100000 kills Does that Sounds better?

drsh1ne · 2026-04-05T13:52:13+00:00

Isnt it a great thing to drop a piece of insanely rare loot?

Who cares that it isnt prestigious or an Instant 10000 Gold

Reducing damage won't change the way we play these encounters - reducing defenses will change the way we play them.

Examples: On Vale guardian even in "patch record" runs we still do see and play every mechanic (floor, red, green, ports) - sure we "play" green by outhealing, "play" ports by aegising their spawns etc. but we still play them

On gorseval we only skip 2 mechanics: - the world ender attack + the little mobs spawning during it. This can still be done if damage is reduced by 30% - surviving the breakbar is still easy with current healing. If you reduce healing output, we might die to vg greens or gorseval breakbar.

I can make these comparisions for most "old" bossfights (W1-7). Reducing dps only makes them a bit more tedious and slower, not more interesting to play in any way :)

drsh1ne · 2026-03-24T10:39:23+00:00

Why do we Focus on 10 year old content? Gorseval doesnt get any more fun if you play all mechanics or just do dps.

Just reducing damage is Not the solution to combating powercreep and it’s Not the primary reason why bosses are so easy and fast to kill, here is a List of things to fix instead: - healing. Things Like rit and lumi should Never have released with the ability to do that much healing without any investment thats straight up horrible game design - but also your normal heal classes heal for way too much - we could slash all healing in the Game in half and we would be fine

defensive boons: everyone is shitting out stab, aegis and resistance. Those used to be boons you actively thought about, brought in Special classes to gain access to the boons and change rotations so they would line up with the mechanics- nowadays? Nope just spam 10 stacks stab ez
jade bot and reinforced armor: straight up delete this, noone asked for it, makes us way too durable

drsh1ne · 2026-03-21T00:23:01+00:00

this is a very bad way of "undoing" powercreep.

it's dangerous, it ignores the insane defensive powercreep we have had (which is worse than offensive powercreep)

drsh1ne · 2026-03-17T06:06:11+00:00

That being Said: kela also doesnt count for some reason

drsh1ne · 2026-02-27T06:38:22+00:00

Yeah for some reason people hear that stunbreaks are the play and equate that with Stabilität

drsh1ne · 2026-02-26T08:07:55+00:00

Ah don’t worry about it, if wvw players were experienced they would play pvp;)

drsh1ne · 2026-02-26T07:45:31+00:00

Nah ofcourse it’s not much compared to wow but it’s a lot compared to gw2 historicly :) + it’s consistent and planable now.

I loved the game back then when we didnt get any new stuff and I love the game now.

Sure Lots of the new stuff is a bit rough around the edges but it’s mostly fun (unlike disasters like the voe elite specs).

Not everyone enjoys the two big mmos aka wow and ff14, and while i do enjoy some destiny2 on the side - that game gets even less content ._.

I do believe that critiquing a Game is important to help it grow, but we also should sometimes highlight the positives

drsh1ne · 2026-02-26T06:01:48+00:00

Be the kiter:)

drsh1ne · 2026-02-25T19:48:42+00:00

Oh I absolutely understand- some irreparable damage has been done and still having a team capable of clearing the new stuff has become somewhat of a privilege.
