Guild Wars 2

If problems abt the rams persist, maybe you should talk to some of your contacts from sor and bg. Port them into garrison to destroy those rams. Two invaders should be enough.

Id love to help but im at work right now

Score update for us stuck in real life would be much appreciated.

Good work for the guys working with other servers for the screenshot score update. Anything to reduce the hostility here

score update please?

When SoS decides to focus on BG BL, SoS BL ends up turning into blue and red.

When BG decides to focus on SoS BL, BG BL ends up turning into blue and green.

When JQ decides to focus on SoS BL or BG BL, JQ BL still looks blue all round.

Insert conclusion here

Blue is a very nice colour. Everybody likes it.

HAH! you wish! it was once my favorite color. Not anymore, not anymore…
::stares into the sunset::

Anyway, I’m looking forward to a new start for WvW, not really sure what the SoS commanders are planning, but I hope we’ll start promoting WvW to PvE players to even out the numbers with JQ. My guild just merged with another guild and I’m hoping everyone there would start playing WvW more too.

If Anet can’t provide more interesting rewards to WvW enthusiasts to entice PvE players then i guess we’ll have to come up with the solution ourselves.

if you see a comment, and feel annoyed by it, please do not reply immediately but ask yourself, is this a flame? and is it worth my time to respond to it?

anyway, good morning, as expected at this time of the day, JQ is dominating SoS BL (I’m from SoS) with BG flipping supply camps here and there (and taking our garrison >_<).

Had a blast losing sunny at SoS BL just now, then taking it back, very good fight JQ.

banning won’t fix anything. What they need to fix are the dungeons, and i do believe they are working on it. They fixed CM and HotW didn’t they? Relax.

No need to call out for a witch hunt. Hell, you might have exploited something and probably didn’t even know you did it.

Pretty sure fixes will come soon if it is deemed as an exploit by Arenanet. They do check the forums.

So basically, you’re saying that the bug is on the howling king, not the stairs, am i correct? Because Colossus seems to reset itself just fine.

For the sake of argument, the howling king is able to climb up the stairs and kill everyone. I’ve seen this happen.

Either way, if the boss is bugged, I hope Arenanet is reading this and get the Howling King fixed.

I’ve given up hope for an in-game LFG tool…

But you’re right

Played HotW path 1 just now after leaving the dungeon for so long and just found out about this new “improvement”

Is it harder? yes.
Can it be beaten? also yes.

But i agree with OP, the health pool needs to go down.

You know what happened during the run just now? Someone started kiting the adds while a few others ran to the top floor, ranged Aldus until he dies. Meh.

That’s not skill, if anything it was just prolonging the time to beat Aldus if you ask me. Not the solution we were hoping for.

Anet should advertise gw2lfg.com in-game. On map chat or something. I know it sounds ridiculous but not everyone comes and visit the forums or reddit.

I reckon more than a few people have left the game because of no in-game LFG tool and being unaware of gw2lfg. So far the dungeons are the only thing that have kept me playing and it’ll be a shame to hear people missing out.

Aha! Just read your “rant” in the dungeons section. Goodbye HotW. It has been a good run.

If the group is not careful while running up the stairs, the howling king would get aggro-ed and follow them up there, proceed to scream at the poor souls (even if they are underneath it), and then everyone would get downed for being so close together.

While you’re struggling to rez yourself, you take a peek at the party chat and see the other members saying, “LOL”.

Not sure if this does really work, but when i started to do it, Detha never bugs anymore during the Ghost fight at the final location.

During the traps, you have to wait for her to say “This is enough bait” before fleeing to the chest.

One guy can wait while the other greedy players can get their filthy hands on the loot. Usually I’d just stay back and make sure Detha finishes whatever she needs to do, because well, I’m just super cool that way ::puts on smug face::

Dear Erasculio.2914,

How is this an exploit really? the stairs are there, clearly designed for people to climb up, because you know, the pixels on my screen had a party, got together in varying colors to make it look like a staircase. And what do you do when u see stairs? Your guess would be as good as mine.

This is totally different than what you see in CM exp, where you have to smash the space bar repeatedly to jump up the rock, or HOTW exp P2 to P3 shortcut where you had to run/swim through walls to get to the other boss – both fixed now by the way.

If Anet doesn’t want it to be like that, nobody would know, because in real life, when you see stairs, you know it is meant to get you to higher ground.

In P3 though, Colossus regens too fast if everyone’s up there. I’ve never met a group who would fight colossus using this. Even if you could kill him this way, it’ll take far too long for it to die.

Careful when using the word “exploit” and “ban”. Its a sensitive topic.

Arenanet super team, can you clarify if this is indeed an exploit?

This happened to me just now, so i decided to google it, boy was i glad it wasn’t something Anet did to “improve” the dungeon.

Hope you guys (anet) can find out whats going on here and fix it

I might be wrong, but CM gave me a feeling that it was designed for Thieves or Mesmers. What with all the One Shot-Kill wonders Anet has scattered throughout the dungeon, it’s hard to get by without using some sort invisible skill or portal.

It’s either that or I just haven’t been running the dungeon enough. Only went in three times and once I’ve gotten my Noblemen’s Helm i stayed the hell away from it.

Agree on the waypoint. Its ridicilous to have only one throughout the dungeon. If i wanted to run around doing nothing except heading to where my party’s at, i wouldnt be doing a dungeon.

On the boss with two champions, its actually very do-able without even the need to pull the champions (to kill them first).

Have the group focus on one champion first (while dodging the boss’s aoe), then the other, then the boss. I tried this one time with a PUG, and we didnt even wipe. Dodging is very important and takes a bit of practice. To me thats a lot more fun as compared to stressing out on whether we can pull the champions without attracting the boss. Just make sure most of the people in ur group has ranged weapon equipped.

For the last boss, dont bother rezzing anyone since they can just heal themselves once theyve found a safe spot. The boss does not attack dead(or almost dead) people. There is no chance at all for this to be a total wipe. It just takes a tad bit too long to finish, but he’s a boss, what do you expect?

Had a particularly frustrating time with Magg yesterday. We were already at the red rock having gone through extinguishing those lava/flame circles and avoiding ooze.

thankfully at one point Magg passed the last flame circle and just stood there while we had to fight off the oozes that followed us.

he was only a couple of steps away from the red rock. I thought that once we’re finish with the ooze he’ll come right over, touch the rock and the WP will appear.

Surprise, surprise. Right after the ooze died, Magg turned back and stood right in the lava/flame circle, and died. I was like, “WHATTTT”

I felt sad that an npc was able to make me so angry. I am now reevaluating my life and going through therapy with the loving support of my family.
