Guild Wars 2

Finally sat down, quite unexpectedly, and finished path four of Arah today with my wife and two other guildies. Took around four hours. Dwayna slowed us down a bit, but only one of us had done the path before.

After all is said and done, I don’t really love the dungeons in Guild Wars 2, but I’m glad it’s done.

I’m going to sleep for a week. lol

Congratulations to you, and all involved. =)

Just me and my wife got the title, one of the guildies already had the title and one has a few more dungeons to go. The last member of the team was a pretty cool pug, so props to him (her?).

Nice!

I want that too O_O

Congratulations I’m still not there yet. Furthermore, I think it means something that you only got it 10 months into the game, while other so-called fans are posting burn out stuff. As for me, I’m not even halfway.

Dungeons were never really “my thing” anyway. I prefer spending time in the open world. Mind you I’m enjoying all sorts of stuff I never thought I would enjoy too.

Lol, me? I think I have only two or three paths finished. Now if there was a ‘Failed to Complete Dungeon Path Master (but not for lack of trying)’ title, I might have accomplished that one! ; )

LMAO! Technically until today, I’d have had that same title, though.

Dungeons really are “my thing” … and yet. The scarce days I’ve got the time to do longer dungeons, I focus on FotM. Three more stacks and my capacitor will be glowing.

I just want to point out that statements like this really make it seem like you’re more interested in furthering your viewpoint than objectively discussing whether there is a content problem at endgame. There are 8 dungeons in the game and each one has 3-4 paths and a story mode. You could do one dungeon run per week and have your DM title. You could have it several times over by doing just three dungeons per week.

I’m not trying to defend people who complain there is nothing to do, because I happen to think the game is fun if you want it to be. But please, for the sake of making an effective argument if nothing else, think about what you’re saying before you say it.

Gratz on the title Vayne – Dungeons aren’t my thing and I think I have 2 or 3 paths of a couple of dungeons done. I love a good dungeon but I find RL interrupts me far too often to subject others to a possible failure.
I think 4hours is an insane amount of time to dedicate to a single instance but that’s just me and my cheap opinion.
I wish they were all adrenaline rush style with more and more difficult bosses. Bosses with the ability to dynamically learn and store strategy in their own unique database. Then we don’t have to spend hours but we may have to try multiple times to get through.
Imagine a boss that realizes 90% of the damage that it’s taking is direct damage and it changes strategy so that for the next 5min it can only be damaged with conditions. Too much melee and it requires the player team to back off and use ranged attacks. Etc.
Sorry to hijack.
Hopefully I’ll be able to gain this title in the distant future. In the meantime Congrats.

Actually…I agree with you. Four hours is a very long time for me to do anything (even sleep sometimes).

Since is suffer from chronic back pain, four hours can be an eternity, even with a couple of breaks. But I have a supportive and helpful guild. I’m pretty sure I couldn’t have gotten anywhere had I pugged it.

The funny bit is, I’m sure I’ll be back in Arah helping other guildies get their title as well. I’ll just have to take a slow and hope I don’t kitten off too many people.
