officially have logs on every fight this patch in #guildwars2
need to get logs for the easier CMs but, I'm really pleased with my performance. I'm hoping I can go out as the #1 willbender when pistol comes out and i eventually have to relearn the spec, chasing mastery on it has been such a fun adventure for me :)
@pixel Yeah I don't think pistols will see much of a change either. I think thief axe will just get up and nerfed, necro swords slightly buffed and rev scepter probably changed to be worse with allied targeting.
The new weapons look cool enough, but I am more interested in what comes next tbh. I'd love selectable weapon skills that we could change in and out between fights.
Hey, any #guildwars2 players on the fediverse into data science and interested in helping me with a little (as in specific, not little as in "not a lot of data to parse") project?
@pixel following with interest because burst is such a weird matter.
There was some chat about this in the Help Desk thief channel recently.
Do you have ideas for what you'd consider a useful burst window? I have thoughts on this, but it is probably just going to make things even more complex lol
@pixel Yes, that makes sense. It is a handy metric for sure, and one that isn't considered sufficiently in balance.
Burst is mainly important to the wider player base in HT CM in my opinion so I have always considered burstiness to be the ability of a profession to contribute considerably to the giants and goliath / obliterator moments of the fight.
That is where it gets messy - giants are 3 targets, obliterator and goliath 2. So the burst that matters is also linked to cleave...
unfortunately, it's the only reason I still have a reddit account, but if anyone wants to read my thoughts on how today's Radiant Fire change affects willbender, here ya go <3
My mouse broke (boo) and because of how I play heal alacrity Specter I need to get a direct replacement which is like £100. Bleh. Here I was hoping to finally move off Razer due to longevity being iffy and there are no alternative MMO mice with the same number / style of buttons...
@bass@pixel I was thinking of the corsair but it doesn't have buttons that I'm really accustomed to with the Razer Naga. I have been through so many of these, and I really wish they lasted longer, but none of the other mice I looked at and chatted with others about seemed to have the same functionality :aurene2:
