Guild Wars 2

Creatures with silver ring are now called Elites. REMEMBER THAT!

Hey, it’s srs bsns.

Like tooltip changes, they’re important balance patches.

Big patch.

Hey now, careful there. I’ve seen posts deleted/closed for commenting on the patch size.

/lol

I better call all my friends that quit the game and tell them it is fixed now!

Meh, they won’t come on this section anyway, who cares. LET’S DERAIL.
I see they fixed fumble dodges. Ohhhhnowait they didn’t.

I came on gw2 with all of my wow guild (50+ players), they have all left one by one and I am the last man standing.
I used to taunt people in LA by saying “wow>gw2” in map chat, I would normally get tons of replies but not anymore.
Sometimes my friends come on my ts and ask me how the game is going. Last november I told them “guys it’s getting better look they added new interesting content!” that was last november. My friends all play c*a*py games but they refuse to come back on gw2 even though it is free.

“Guys now silvers are called elites!”

I guess they didn’t like the term “trash mob”.

well.. my Sherlock instinct (¡?) tells me there will be something added regarding elite killing to give an incentive to actually fight them instead of skipping (perhaps something achievement wise). Then reality hits me like a train and I’m back to reality,… its ANet, looking back and forward again, if anything new is added it will be in the “kill 10K for a bubble gum and a pat on the back” line.

On another note, a glowing graphic was changed on some cultural armor and some may quit the game over it.

New achievement:
Slay 10.000 Elites
Reward title: Elitist
Reward mini-pet: a mini Wethospu in his original armor dye.

And then the eliticide will be complete.

We are the minority, we must fight to survive!

Shouldn’t it be skip 10.000 élites.
Or kick 10.000 pugs.

Get 10 000 infractions.

No because they want to destroy our image, kill our credibility, so they have to make a mockery out of our ways.
Like the siths we will be casted into exile far away with nothing to furnish our existence but the bitter memory of our past glory. Like the siths we will wait patiently, for revenge and remorse fuel our veins with relentless anger. And like the siths we shall return stronger than ever, when they least expect us.

Now we have to fight TWO extra groups of dredge, oh my god what is this?!

Seriously, i’m not even sure why they changed that, at best they added 30 seconds to the average run final time. Pfft.

Incorrect guess. Silver mobs never existed in open world before. Now they will. This is a “challenging” mob that doesn’t drop a champ bag. Now anet can make their open world stuff harder without introducing a champ mob that could be potentially farmed over and over.

this one is tricky cause while pugging, you are also a pug so its kinda of a western duel… when the clock’s bell tolls every starts kicking

WOOO WOO DERAIL PARTY!

I saw they finally gave Arah weapons good icons, only a little over a kittening year after the game has been out

Too bad so many tier 3 cultural items still don’t have proper icons

pee pee doo doo it is a bad game

I expect they fixed the se skip when they fixed the floor being missing? Seeing as people were forced to use it to get passed the game breaking bug rofl.

The masses have spoken, what they care about is living story.
The devs are incredibly slow at fixing and polishing stuff but the masses don’t care because all they want is shinies.
Somedays it looks like we picked the wrong game to love.

I like two things in this game: elementalists and fractals.
Both are dead and dead.
Meanwhile, we get living story. The contrast is astonishing
“Collaborative development” gives me nausea, it’s so cheap …

“Collaborative development” is a awful way to develop a game, fans are fans, and shouldn’t be more than that unless they have the skills required to do so. It is just like when a movie/tv series director/screenwriter starts asking fans what they’d like to see in said movie/serie, and you go from espionage to Goku in a tuxedo dancing dubstep.

I heard that the barrels in CM p2 dont do crazy damage anymore… is this true? (cant get on right now :<)

No more donkey kong way?!? Noooooooo T_T

Nice to see there was time to fix one tiny opportunity to avoid killing some trash and also get rid of one of the funniest dungeon paths in between adding yet more champ zerging events to Kessex Hills. I guess the economy-distorting effects of all that CM path 2 speedrun gold couldn’t be ignored forever.

As for elites, is it too much to hope for DAT GUARANTEED GREEN?

Hey now, you might get some mithril and some luck from that green. That’s nothing to wag a finger at!

Gotta farm so you can pay to have your blue glow plant weapon while you farm.

Still haven’t fixed closest enemy targeting, which is my biggest annoyance at the moment. But hey at least now I auto-target champs in the zerg trains, so working as intended, right? :/

My client crashed halfway through the patch, and then proceeded to crash halfway through its repair process of the crash. It has now crashed so many times that my entire computer crashes everytime I open Guild Wars. I now have to reinstall the whole kitten thing, and for what?…

Some garbage Living Story that I’ll never do.

They always were called like that.Nothing new

Nope. Before they were named exactly the same as normal mobs.

elites was an unofficial term that wiki and some others used I think, some people just called them silvers

This was actually fixed last patch.

So no, this patch is even more worthless than you think.

Lol I’m a fan of Snape, he’s so awesome.
Ohhhh what about a dungeon where you embody wizards and every spell that touches your enemies turns them into dredge? And then nightmare wolves? And then risen dredge? And then destroyer dredge? And then Korga?!?!?
PLZ Anet want.
Anything else in the patch regarding dungeons?
I noticed that the archdiviner bugs a bit more now Makes things more interesting, being hit by whitewash while he’s stunned and invulnerable!

Why don’t we have Risen Dredge by the way?

guanlongwucaii.3162:

Wiki has used Elite term since September. I have used it on gw2dungeons.net since August.

I win!

Making blue scrotums for backpieces is more important than dungeon content and fixes.

Wethospu.6437:

Wiki copied from you. Scumbags.

I should have patented it.

Bright.9160:

you just spoiled the secret plot twist (?)

there aren’t corrupted dredge either or branded dredge

Dredges are inmune to Elder Dragon possesion! They will inherit the planet and be the new gods.

I was very saddened by this whole patch. I enjoyed nothing in it. I feel like grumpy cat.
