Guild Wars 2

Some professions like the mesmer, thieves, rangers and necros have cool utilities and tools to make cool tricks.

Lets say youre in a jumping puzzle. portals can be used as check points or as a way to help your buddies once you get to the end, stealth can be used to pass by veterans, elites, champions that guard the treasure or simply saving your self from the mobs that were about to finish you off after you steped on that trap.

rangers and necros can use their pets/minions as diversions.
Even warriors can use their sword 2 for a long leap
I find thise sort of tricks much more fun as it alowes me to play content in a very different way.

I wanna know what other places and tricks can be done with those utilities?

Blink, and other teleport skills, can often be used to get up to higher platforms or cliffs where you would otherwise have to run a much longer path to reach. Don’t be dismayed when you first attempt and get the message “No valid path to target” — often if you continue trying, the game will eventually find a ‘valid path’ and port you to your desired destination.

There are a bunch of consumables you can purchase from renown heart vendors and event merchants which give you impressive leap skills, extra stealth options, instant-use CC skills (very useful for killing champions or other bosses with small groups), or a wide assortment of other things. There’s a dulfy page that goes into pretty great detail on some of the things available.

This isn’t necessarily skill-related, but you can save a lot of the collection event items for a future event cycle. This is useful when you have an event you want to complete as fast as possible—a good example of this is the beetle event in Dry Top. If you’re on a map that’s trying to get to tier 6, it’s best to complete every event as soon as you can, and that particular event scales up as more players participate, meaning it requires more Beetle Remains to complete with 20 people than it does with 1. One trick is to save a small amount of Beetle Remains instead of turning them in, so that when the event pops up again, if you’re the only one nearby you can turn them in and complete it immediately. I believe this specific event requires 7 or 8 remains to insta-complete, but other events around Tyria will vary.

This tactic can also work for the new map, Ember Bay, where there is a renown heart that you complete by turning in eggs. Collect a large stack of the eggs to store in your bank, then pull out a small stack each day before you visit EB and you don’t have to spend time collecting (I believe it requires 12-14 to insta-complete the heart).

Nothing much else is coming to mind at the moment, but I’m sure there are many more “outside the box” strategies which people use regularly.
