Guild Wars 2

Everything that you said also applies to my side of the “coin”. I have friends that have 7 or more legendaries, with 4 or more characters with 100% of the map, forge is a mini-game for them, they enjoy meta from maps such as Auric Basin and all other things like that, but i don’t. I’m a player that exclusively play the end-game PvE content, and one that hates with all might any sort of farm, and i’ve only ever done farming to get 1 set of ascended, all my other 5 ascended sets is through raids and fractals drops. I will never get my hands on a legendary, you know why? cause i’m lazy when it comes downs to farm, including the Legendary Armor, that i stopped as soon as i realized that farm was necessary in the second part. If you want to be able to get the Legendary Armor through gold farming like you can get the Legendary Weapons, then Legendary Weapons should be obtainable via raids. But, although it is an interesting idea, i like that there’s things that’s only obtainable in a unique way, i don’t play WvW or PvP, The Ascension is some sort of trophy that you worked hard in PvP, The Unclean title is that you managed to get through the Nightmare Fractal Challenge Mote, and etc… So i don’t think there’s anything wrong.

Welcome aboard, welcome to toxic!

Guess what? I just checked my blocked list and for my surprise you were there! and what was the reason? I don’t remember, and i don’t care what was the reason, because if you’re blocked for me, you probably done something that i didn’t like. It’s pointless to hold grudge? You’re wrong, people hold grudge, this is the way the world works and if you’re not satisfied don’t interact with people. Imagine that you’re in the train station and you board the train and there something happens, you trade words with a stranger, you guys start to quarrel and suddenly, before it comes to a fight, it’s interrupted by the crowd and both of you walk away, small event right? but enough to annoy you. Now, if you by chance met that guy again somewhere, and you reminded of him, how would you act? I would for sure walk away and not trade a single word with him, cause i don’t want to start another quarrel. Back to the virtual world, games gives you block list, you don’t need to met that person again, and talk to him, you can even guarantee that you will remember of him, maybe you will not remember what he have done, but you will remember that he done something, amazing right? Yeah, you can avoid so many problems and therefore stress just because of this wonderful tool, i wish they existed in real life.

so the tempest is a must, RIP dream.

Currently the classes i can play is:

Ranger/Druid (Berserker, Viper, Magi)
Daredevil (Berserker’s)
Necromancer/Reaper (Viper’s)
Chronomancer (Mixed Berserker with Commander’s for 100% Boon duration)

Currently i’m sharing the Viper’s Backpiece and Acessories from my druid with my necromancer when i need to play with it, and also the Berserker Acessories from my druid with the Chronomancer, i’m originally a player that invested everything in the class i like the most those conditions will soon disappear, because i’m working on getting them independent.

You can check all here:

Somethings to consider:

1) I’m still learning and improving Chronomancer.
2) Next class i will work after i finish everything that i’m pending will be Elementalist, cause high demand. This can change if the guild that accommodates me needs other thing such as Warrior, Guardian…
3) Both my Power and Condi build on Ranger/Druid have 150 AR, as well as my Thief/Daredevil.

Player Style: Semi-Harcore
Active Time: My timezone is BRST, which is currently 3 hours ahead of EST, my reset being at 22pm, i’m most commonly online between 19pm to midnight (16pm to 21pm EST), during the week, and weekends are usually are free, and i play whenever i want.

Background:

My name is Matheus (in game: Alstreim), and i’m a 24 years old brazilian player with major in IT. My hobbies are playing games, reading, swimming, etc… I’m a guy that likes chill environments, hates disorganization, that tries the best he can in everything he does. Despite my type and hardcore approach to games i’m sociable and i have a real life (at least i think i have). My experiences in games started since i know myself as a person, and i’ve played from Yoshi Story and Mario Kart to Pro Evolution Soccer and Final Fantasy, the online games that i spent most of my time during the past years was Dota 2 and the still actives Starcraft II and Guild Wars 2, offline games includes Final Fantasy, Final Fantasy, and games like Final Fantasy. Back to Guild Wars, i’ve been playing for about 3 years, which a couple small breaks from time to time, my experience regarding the game is decent, at least on PvE, i have most achievements that matters to me (i.e The Eternal, The Unclean [Nightmare Mote], Down Down Downed [KC Mote], etc..) i still missing some that i want (i.e Slippery Slubbling, Twilight Assaulter [TA Aether], etc…), i have some challenges done that i imposed to me, (i.e some dungeon/fractal solos, low-man raid bosses kill), but i still have much to improve and many things that need to be done in order to be considered a sick player

Everything said, i’m looking for a guild of players like me, that can help me get better and attain my goals. If anyone is part of a guild like this, or knows a guild like this, i’ve already checked some like NA, but PST time sucks for me.

Regards,
Alstreim.

This is just how it works, accept and adapt. Bosses don’t show all their mechanics right at the start of the fight, this means that you need to reach the phase where he shows it, and this will not be done (normal scenario) with a wonky composition. Learning raids is not learning only boss mechanics, is learning the concept of raiding, that includes composition.

EX: (consider normal scenario) How i’m supposed to make some progress on Gorseval, if no tempests to take care of orbs? it will get out of control, and the fail is almost guaranteed. How i’m supposed to make some progress on Vale Guardian if there’s not enough condi damage to kill the red guardian?

Even on training people want to reach a desirable result, and a good composition contributes for this to happen. Treat compositions on raids, like soccer, soccer is played by 11 people, you don’t see usually a team playing, even on training, with a wonky composition like 4 Defender/Holding Midfielders, or 3 Right-Wingers, it will simply not work.

I think adding daily dungeons, like the existent daily fractals, would help a bit, but isn’t the solution to reintegrate dungeons. But “fishball” said something that it’s right, dungeons are old and people just don’t want to play anymore.

1: Escort
2: Trio
3: Gorseval
4: KC
5: VG
6: Slothasor
7: Sabetha
8: Xera
9: Matthias

I only do Xera and Matthias nowdays with my static, i really think it’s a waste of time trying to pug.

Hello, everyone.

I made my build of ranger, using Longbow + Sword/Dagger, should i use on marksmanship (VII – Spotter + XI – Predator’s Onslaugh) or (X – Eagle Eye + XIII – Read of the Wind), or something different?

Consider i’m using sigils of Ice + Fire on Longbow and Energy + Force on Sword/Dagger respectively, with Predator’s Onslaugh i have permanent bonus damage.

For now i’m rotating around those traits, what do you guys think?

Thanks in advance,
Alstreim

Cool! I’m forgetting to have fun and only thinking in metagame. This guide teach me a lot and changed my way of thinking.
