Guild Wars 2

So normally I have post after post defending anet, so for someone like me to switch sides says a lot.

Because of the pvp update once you get to a certain point you literally can’t win in a pug, you have to find groups. Before even in high ranked games it wasn’t this bad. Was going for the new backpack and even won the 5 games on all of the professions thinking that unlocked the next tier of progression, but no I have to just play everyday. I don’t mind that but nothing else as a reward other than basic pvp loot. If we could at least work on the next set of achieves and just have an overall days played for an achieve that would work and be a huge improvement.

Can’t raid. I have a max herald, daredevil, chronomancer, reaper, condi or boonsteal necro, beserk warrior, dh, tempest, one of everything really. All max gear and stats, herald is full ascended armor, have several legendary/ascended weapons, doesn’t matter. Pugs just fail and don’t even see pugs that often. I’m usually off work tues/thur but seems like everyone does it on monday now.

Finding a guild would help with this but it seems like logically all the guilds who have the raid on farm have a core team already and don’t see any recruiting. PvP too.

Can’t do my map completion for the new legendaries b/c so much of it is event gated. DS seems empty most late nights. Rarely see the other maps that full either now. Definitely not 4/4 progress.

Other than going through the story and getting leystone armor pieces that way on 15+ alts not sure what else to do these days.

I know the feeling. I may have it worse. HoT offers no reward that I want. I don’t like a single skin enough to motivate me to submit myself to the time-gated event cycles and rubbish mini-games. It’s all sound and fury with nothing to show for it. No thanks.

1.Plenty soloq player can get to ruby or above if they are good. Plenty have done so.

2.Get a guild dont raid with pug. Use reddit lfg to find one.

3.DS empty at night? We must be playing different games cuz all I see there are zergs farming .

Don’t find a raid guild. You’ll most likely have to carry some casuals. You can went full kitten elitist gear check legendary armor 69k AP in PUGs and no one will disagree.

Find a guild that does the new zones, and do that. That’s a lot to do there. Then work into raids. I can’t comment on the PvP bit.

Thanks for the info. Didn’t know about using reddit for guilds. Do find it weird/sad that seems to be more active than the forums guild recruiting section. Will try to keep looking for ds groups.

Oh well at least I can work on the new Winter’s Presence shoulders now if nothing else. Or back to fractals for the update on better rewards.
