Guild Wars 2

Jure Simich.6154:

As someone who only ever PUGs due to a dead guild, I can say that all of my PUGs successfully killed the spider queen, so no, it’s not “the end of casuals”.

General scenario, with about 10 runs, including one with a party including only two lvl 80s, is:
-someone may insist that we stack, resulting in a “learning wipe”
-group engages queen in the open space, and if people stay out of AoE (sometimes problematic if the queen camps inside an AoE circle or if someone runs out of condition removal just when he gets immobilized in a circle) the queen generally dies with 1-2 defeated people.

Really, people on this board seem to mistake the idea that the meta way is the fastest way to do a dungeon with the misconception that it is the only way to finish one.

Also, it’s much more fun now.

+1000. (there were bonus points for acknowledging the existence of “learning wipes”.)

x1000 bonus multiplier!!

I mean sheesh. On one hand they go “everything is viable for dungeon” and on the other “If you don’t use meta tactics you’ll never complete a dungeon”
Because we all know no one had ever completed a dungeon before we discovered the zerker meta.

Agreed so much. I really can’t stand people’s slavish devotion to prescribed methods of doing things.

I’ve done pretty much all the dungeons without cheese tactics or maximum efficiency. If you can’t beat a boss without stacking, you’re probably bad at this game. If you’re worried about doing it in 5 minutes instead of 10, in a PUG, I don’t even know what to tell you.

Time for more pug related movie quotes!

This forum is afraid of us. I have seen its true face. The dungeon forums are extended gutters and the gutters are full of nerf threads and when the drains finally scab over, all the playhowiwants will drown. The accumulated filth of all their casualism will foam up about their waists and all the clerics and PVTers will look up and shout “Save us!”… and we’ll whisper “no.”

I guess polygamy has to be a thing because I must marry you.

Oh man lesbian polygamy, imagine the conservative outrage.

Edit: I am surprised that isn’t censored.

Lesbian kittens or kitten polygamy?

We can’t have a lvl 30/35 dungeon actually be doable for lvl 30/35 players now can we?

…but it’s doable on level 30/35 players… I did them on my level 35 this past weekend. On my EU account. Really…

Afterall, this just made queen annoying to solo but didn’t change any bit in duo. It simply dies before it is able to lay down poison fields.

I know it is. My comment was meant to refer to people who constantly complain AC isn’t hard enough and elitists who look down on low levels doing dungeons. Some people are apparantly under the impression that dungeons are an 80 only club.

Ooooh. Okay. Gotcha.

So how much money you get per slot for AC path selling with the new change?

Same as before :
- P1 : <2g because countless sploiters.
- P2 : 4-5g
- P3 : 3-4g
