As a crit Warrior, I have an automatic trait that gives me a 33% chance per crit to apply a bleed with, as far as I know, no cooldown.
My question is if I have my weapon equipped with a Superior Sigil of Earth (60% to apply a 5 second bleed on critical, 2 second cooldown), in what way do those 2 chances to bleed synergize (or conflict)?
My theory is it’s one of 3 possibilities:
#1: Per Crit, I get 2 rolls:
Roll 1 is a 33% chance to apply a bleed
Roll 2 is a 60% chance to apply a bleed, but this roll is only done on crits every 2 seconds. I doubt this is the way it works because if it were I probably would’ve seen 2 bleeds apply with 1 crit every now and then when I get lucky.
#2: The sigil overrides the trait, making the Sigil pretty bad for me as I don’t have a choice but to have that trait.
#3: The 60% from the Sigil is additive with the 33% from traits, which I also doubt as I’m definitely not applying a bleed on 93% of all crits.
Has anyone figured this out? I know it’s an oddball question, and I did look on the Wiki and didn’t have any luck.
About 20% of the time (Whether it’s entering the instance or rallying from death) I get stuck on the SPvP zone’s loading screen indefinitely and am forced to alt+f4 or access the task manager, denying me the end-of-match benefits I am entitled to.
It is already borderline trash that someone with a gaming machine as good as mine has to deal with a loadscreen in the same zone I’m currently in. However, the problem stated in the above paragraph is highly unacceptable and I expect it to be fixed in the next update.
thats what glory is for isn’t it?
You can also buy crafting tokens for gear pieces from the same vendor that sells chests, different tab.
Only buy the gold ones because they give you the best salvage materials from the gear.
Are you sure salvage mats are determined in any way why by what chest they came out of? I thought it was random.
Aim for being top player in different areas as opposed to just going for the win/kills.
I often end a game with 5/6 top player awards which not only nets the points for doing these things but grants an extra 5 per top player your awarded. Oh tourneys are also fantastic for it, free gold chest and 300 points for winning it.
Like I said in previous post, I agree with you but at the same time I don’t think those “top player” rewards are enough. It’s what… 5 or 6 points for being top base assaulter/defender? I think that things like that which contribute to a victory should be worth more.
I don’t think it’s that winning isn’t stressed enough, it’s that doing things that do not contribute to victory are TOO rewarding. I could just stick with the rest of my team making sure to get a hit in on kills and get 5-15 per kill and probably end up with more points than someone actually trying to win.
That’s a problem IMO
As for team balance concerns: Remove auto-balance, end matches if teams aren’t balanced (doesn’t have to be perfect, just no more than 1 person difference) and allow manual team switching for the overmanned team when teams aren’t balanced.
If a team is over 2 players down, leave it up to the players to keep it going or end it after 60 seconds (maybe 45). But autobal is garbage
Speaking of course about the 200/500/1000 glory chests you can get from the glory vendors.
For rank 1-9 I did buy them (1000g ones at first, but then I realized it’s not efficient as the contents aren’t 2x or more better than the 500), but a couple guildmates told me it’s not all that efficient.
What do you guys think? Is it better to just hope for plenty of gear from tournaments and use glory on crafting tokens? Right now I don’t feel as though I get enough gear from PVP solely through rankups and tourneys. That said I don’t do tourneys all that often and when I do I rarely win (always against a full guild group).
So do you guys buy the chests?
Faction: Order of Whispers
Race: Norn
Class: Thief
Level: 51
Quest name: Reconnaissance.
On the step “Patrol each section of the Canal Ward”, the objective next to the Mystic Forge does nothing. Every other objective spawns enemies for me to kill, and upon killing said enemies, that objective is cleared.
This wouldn’t be such a huge problem if the enemies I had to face in this and the previous quest weren’t so ridiculously overtuned making restarting the quest to see if that fixes it a MASSIVE inconvenience, but that’s a discussion for another thread.
