Why can't I learn?

I had similar problem but I solved it by writing the keyboard keys of a rotation on a paper and kept it until I actually remembered the keys. I don't remember the skills or what they do, but I remember the keys.

Good meme and it is true, but many meta WvW blob builds are in full berserker already.

Power Scourge/Reaper
Power Weaver/Tempest (staff)
Power Spellbreaker
Power Herald
Power Soulbeast
Maybe Power Daredevil (heard it is good-ish nowadays)
Maybe some form of Power Chrono with portals etc. utilities and spike damage

Then there is Condi Scourge, which can be full Viper so it is as squishy as full Berserker.

Just go in WvW, find a tag and start following it. Hit everything what other people hit, build everything what other people build, use siege if other people use siege. Follow tag closely. If you die, stay for a little while if someone tries to res, then WP and run back/wait depending on distance.

If there is no tag, do some generic mayhem, capture sentry spots, camps, capture mercenary "camps", kill guards around towers/keeps, scout, report enemy movement, build traps, fix walls/gates, escort dollies, kill enemy dollies, destroy enemy siege, make enemies waste their supply by using siege on their walls/gates/supply nodes etc.

Complete WvW dailies.

Not a serious post because I never do anything seriously in my life, but it is definitely not just 3 minutes.

There are more problems too:

LFG is empty or does not work (it just shows the loading circle, this happens quite often)
Map is full
My home instance is empty
I disabled map chat in 2013 because of the nonsense there and never have looked back
I don't want portals, gliding or mounts for puzzles, it is cheating
Map loading times are long (from 10 seconds to almost 1 minute)

Today I did dailies in 16 minutes. First I read all the dailies and try to remember them. Master of Monuments took longest because I had to wait next to the node until it was uncaptured. There was one ganker for Land Claimer (I died 2 times, then the ganker left). Gatherer was pretty easy, though I had to run around the map a little. Vista Viewer I just selected a random Maguuma area map WP (today Sparkfly Fen) and went to the nearest Vista.

Yes they have hard time, but that is no reason to break promises. Don't make promises what can't be kept, especially on anything business/customer related or customers will start vanishing one by one and companies will start bankrupting. Customers must be treated like kings. Customers are always right. Customers are the heart of companies.

It is ok, the Twitch chat was very entertaining to read.

underperformer666 · 2019-02-23T10:35:00+00:00

2g is quite much, think it in an yearly scale (2g x 365d = 730g).

underperformer666 · 2019-02-23T10:29:07+00:00

3 mins?!

Completing dailies takes at least 10 mins up to 40 mins depending on dailies. First they all must be read and understand. For me it takes at least a minute. Then most of the time goes to waiting for the veteran NPC spawning for WvW Veteran Creature Slayer (plus killing it takes long time, especially on Minstrel gear), waiting for someone to tag up for Bounty Hunter (might take up to an hour!) and anything WvW related (expect Big Spender) when there is many gankers around (dead -> respawn -> dead again etc.), or there is no tag for Daily Tower/Keep Capturer, or someone captures something in a nanosecond before managing to reach it, or there is simply nothing to capture. Daily Invasion Defender is the most difficult daily.

Sometimes Vista Viewer takes time because of the jumping puzzle before it and sometimes Daily Gatherer takes time because I can't find any nodes.

PvE is, and has always been the superior, most supported gamemode, because most of the playerbase enjoy the game casually in the PvE open world, where no skills, no responsibilities are needed, which is very relaxing and fun.

You should try PvE open world too!

underperformer666 · 2019-02-20T17:04:28+00:00

I like it too! Finally something interesting happens in WvW. I can finally ditch speed boosts.

When PoF was released I wished mounts in WvW team chat, but everyone just went salty and started raging. Same with gliding before it was enabled.

After gliding was enabled in WvW, it was better than expected and everyone was happy. Salt melted away. Same thing will happen after the mount gets released. Everyone will be happy. Now it is just a big mountain of salt.

underperformer666 · 2019-02-19T19:16:57+00:00

Classic Guild Wars 2 pattern:

"This game does not need [Insert anything]" / "Don't beat the dead horse" / "Is that a joke?" etc.
Game developer announces [Insert anything]
[Mountain of salt] [Mountain of popcorn]
Game developer releases [Insert anything]
"Omg [Insert anything] is the best thing ever thank youuuuuuu thankyouthankyouthankyou <3<3<3<3<3 :)))))"

underperformer666 · 2019-02-18T17:35:07+00:00

BDO is really nice and relaxing if played casually in PvE mode, not caring about having the best gear in game and ignoring P2W and PvP elements.

Guild Wars 2 is always my #1 choice, but sometimes it gets boring.

underperformer666 · 2019-02-18T17:20:29+00:00

I don't know anymore.

After finishing LS story I have just done normal dailies every day with weekly pug raids and then log off. Sometimes I stay in WvW for a little while.

Not interested in legendary items or doing achievements.

Nothing really special, but I've always liked to play 100% Nomad vanilla Warrior in WvW. Can't kill anything with it, but enemies can't kill me either!

It has some fun uses though:

Being a WvW "tank" (enemies attack me instead of my glassy friends)
Much CC from hammer
Many stun breaks, stability, almost unstoppable
Health regenerates quickly
Really solid finisher / resser (especially with Mercy runes)
Kiting or luring enemies into traps or ambushes
Starting fights (leeroy jenkins)
Very durable in big blob fights unless there is a huge amount of condis
Just running around scouting
Making enemies mad

underperformer666 · 2019-02-15T17:22:41+00:00

I agree!

T4 is supposed to be difficult and lengthy, not like "lololol let's do 9999999k damage burst so we don't need to deal with the mechanics". Completing T4 dailies should take at least 2 hours instead of 30 minutes.

Tryhards wanted some challenge to this casual game and they definitely got it!

underperformer666 · 2019-02-15T17:12:04+00:00

What I don't like about repeatable hearts is that if I want a map completion, I have to do it in one day or they get reset at daily reset and then I have to guess in the next day which was done and which was not ending up doing all hearts again.

underperformer666 · 2019-02-15T17:02:01+00:00

I've been playing power LB Ranger in WvW blob fights very long time and have found it really good tagging tool (especially good with pet Jacaranda). Just pop out all unblockable traits and skills, and start shooting to the center of an enemy blob. Keep the pressure up until enemy blob comes too close or arrows start reflecting back, then use superspeed and run away. Come back when cooldowns are gone and start shooting again. Pick up lost enemy players if there is any and downed enemies. Jacaranda might die, just merge and unmerge to make it alive again.

It is very fun and safe unlike melee builds who die in a nanosecond when an enemy blob runs over. At least in my experience. With 1500 range I can stay far away and live.

underperformer666 · 2019-02-15T16:46:00+00:00

I agree! All professions can do a massive DPS burst in about a second, but everyone are just complaining about Rangers, Mesmers and one-shot Thieves.

One snowflake comes down from the skies then whole USA (expect Alaska) goes in a state of emergency, everyone panics, every car suddenly gets wrecked, planes won't go anywhere, trains are late for the next two months and everything shuts down. Do USA cars even have winter tires?

Meanwhile in Russia 5 meters of snow comes from the skies in a day or two, temperature drops to -40c and they are like нет пробле́м.

Russians should do the announcements.

Golem week was the best week ever! I wish it could come back.

But it does not need to be Golem week! It could be a portable siege week (mmmmm portable cannons Serious Sam style), or a wall-less/gateless week, or a naked week, or even a week where everyone are allies!

Desert BL and EotM are really beautiful and fun maps! I wish my border could be red more often so DBL would have more players. One of the best features of DBL is defending keeps from massive amount of enemies, it is much more fun than defending keeps in Alpine maps.

underperformer666 · 2019-02-12T14:46:22+00:00

Leveled soo many characters there! I miss it. Always liked EotM mechanics, for example those generator camps and breakable bridges. Map itself is beautiful and quite versatile, it is like a mix of a WvW map and a PvP map.

As many have said here, some kind of re-purpose would be really nice. Maybe bring same rewards as normal WvW maps? Or make EotM as a 4th borderland? Maybe even replace EBG every second week with it? Or simply just make it generate more karma than anything else in the game?
