    Transformation skills need to how up in this section. Rampage, Reaper mode, Dragon Trigger, whatever. There has to be way to read what the skills do without entering the (timed) transformation or reading a wiki

    Some of those DX11 bugs should be added to the game. Bjora Marches. Some rocks have red tint, some trees too. Bushes are also really nice. It bit looks like war raged through the lands and blood of warriors soaked into the ice. Fitting.

    French versions of Tempest and Cataclyst are almost identifical

    Posted: 25 Sep 2021 12:21 AM PDT

    Edit: ok so many typos in the title they run the thread now

    Here are the french translations of the elite specs:

    A tempest is called a Cataclyste

    A Catalyst is called a Catalyseur

    This is very confusing to say the least

    Beta class swap abuse in PvP ranked

    Beta class swap abuse in PvP ranked

    Hey PvP community and others.
    How can it be allowed in high ranked PvP (plat 2 / plat 3 +) to let people play the beta professions by swapping characters before the match starts. It is literally a bug abuse and it didn't ashamed the guys who were playing it and were clearly mocking the system. Can't Arenanet do anything to prevent this guys from polluting my PvP games ?

    Among all Alliances bugs tonight, one was really entertaining

    Posted: 24 Sep 2021 01:55 PM PDT

    During tonight beta test for wvw alliances several bugs popped up. Among all of those I found one of them to be really fun to play with.

    With new matchmaking, server and map colours were all over the place. If we capped objective, it didn't necessarily change colour to our home server colour.

    Since all map colours got mixed up, we didn't really know which objectives were ours and if we are in enemy territory. We could identify ownership only by flags on the objectives, making someone walk over there to check.

    Scouts were actually engaged to play, instead sitting in keep and waiting for enemy blob. We were going in blind sometimes. Not knowing if we were in enemy territory or even going in right direction all the time was kinda fun for me.

    Would anyone like to see blind maps (no colours on objectives) weekend events, something similar to no downstate events?

    Making Catalyst More Enjoyable to Play

    Posted: 24 Sep 2021 11:35 PM PDT

    Catalyst as an elite spec definitely needs work. We've seen many great feedback posts on the sub about what is wrong with the elite spec and how to possibly improve it. A simple change might exists that I think would highly improve the spec as a whole.

    TLDR: Swap the current Jade Sphere F5 with the Hammer 3 abilities. Give the elemental orbs(Flame Wheel, Icy Coil etc) the energy mechanic while giving hammer access to jade sphere fields as hammer 3 skills.

    How would this work?

    1. The biggest issue with the hammer 3 spinning orb skills is that they feel completely separate from the hammer rotation and almost like a class mechanic. The skills are only up for 5 seconds and force you to manage them instead of bonking people with a hammer. By giving these skills the jade sphere energy mechanic we create interesting(as interesting as energy management can be) power management. Want all 4 buffs up at the same time? Drain more energy. While building up for a big damage strike once we release all 4 orbs. Juggling energy and the buff duration as a side mechanic to your normal rotation would create for some interesting combos. This also helps out the catalyst when using D/D or other weapon sets, as they still get some sort of class mechanic/utility as the hammer 3 skills take on the role of the F5 mechanic.
    2. One of the components that is definitely missing on hammer is the access to reliable fields that do not punish your normal dps/survivability rotation. You'd think a spec built around field combos would have some? Replace all hammer 3 skills in fire/water/air/earth with the jade sphere fields. Increase the cool downs for the fields or keep em short but we now have a reliable way of generating combos/auras in the hammer skill line.
    3. Now you are probably wondering about Utility skills. Just a simple idea but you could tie the secondary effect of each utility skill to which floating orb skill is currently active. If the Air orb is active than activating Invigorating Air grants super speed as well. This would also alleviate constantly needing to run back to the sphere for every single secondary buff since Catalyst currently has no mobility anyways.

    Does this "fix" Catalyst? Probably not. Perhaps it will make it more enjoyable to play.

    I got into collecting sealed Video Games and wanted to have my most nostalgic and favorite series displayed. After getting lucky to get the sealed Guild Wars Games, my display cases arrived, and I am so happy with the result that I wanted to share my happiness with you, the community.
