Guild Wars 2

Something is seriously wrong with the main-hand dagger auto-attack. The direct damage is low with very low power co-efficients. The majestic one stack of bleeding has 3 seconds base duration???? Even if I cap 100% bleed duration it will be only 6 seconds bleeding for one stack. I’d expect this kind of behaviour if it was a strong condition like burning but no, it’s bleeding…

Beastmode offensive skills are lacking as well. Is this normal for a ranger to be so low damage even without a pet?

Updated a little.

I hereby raise thee in the name of Dolyakus!

Also looking for people interested in forming a second raid group.

Open for recruiting bump.

There’s something fishy about this item. I got mine as well from KC, I have never killed Xera yet. The item itself is locked behind Xera kill in the vendor. When I try to infuse my Xera backpiece I got from KC, I can’t do it.

My only issue with the w10 anniversary update is the same as Aza’s where in the end of the loading screens it flickers to blackscreen/desktop and back to the game. (Seems to happen with AMD against gw1 and gw2, temp fix is using full screen windowed mode.)
I haven’t noticed any other issues.

Updated information #dolyak

You can click them on a 80 lvl toon and get spirit shards instead of level up. How to get rid of the spirit shards is a different issue.

Something to bulk-use mystic forge. Stupid spirit shards…

I’m sitting with over 10k Fractal Relics at the moment. No idea how to use them. I already got legendary backpiece and even infused fractal backpiece.

It’s already proven people can cheese through the enrage with 10 healers (1 hour Matthias). What they can’t cheese through is mechanics like only 4 updrafts at Gorseval or Platform damage at Sabetha. I wish they’d just remove enrage and add mechanics like the one in Gorseval etc.

Umm.. Stop repeating the same stuff 24/7? I never had any noticeable issue with DR. Event success/fail reward barely is worth anything so I really don’t see the issue here.

They got pretty high toughness but if you break them you’ll do higher damage on them.

All hail the Supreme Race: Dolyaks!

We are the Dolyaks that Tyria needs,
We are the ones who stole your rum,

The average player doesn’t understand when you are raging “use cc” in chat. All they will do is wonder for a second what is he about and then carry on doing their things. Many questions are unanswered unless really trying hard to look for them. “Oh that’s a nice blue bar, let me hover my cursor on it to see what it is… Well this doesn’t say much at all, I guess it’s just fluff.”

Did the average player read every hot blog about break bars? No.
Does he go to the wiki to find out things instead of playing the game? No.
Does he understand what you are raging in chat? No.

Conclusion: Breaking the breakbar fails.

Well I used to hate pve dailies due to their horrible choices. Who really has any fun racing against other players for catching 4 events in a map? I’m glad this isn’t on every day anymore. What about world bosses that are so restricted in timers you will miss it anyway. The new jp and adventure dailies are what we really needed. Since bugs aren’t design choices I’m not even going further about those. Anyway welcome to my world: you can’t do a pve daily like I used to!

I don’t think we need more new classes, what we really need is more elite specs to give us true variety.

“Holy trinity” has no place in gw2 and never will. If you’re looking for such a thing, you’re playing the wrong game. Most of the healing comes from yourself, whatever your allies do is just supportive maintenance in keeping health stay higher. In gw2 it is utterly selfish and useless to become a primary healer. Sure you can pretend that the heal numbers you see on your allies is enough but when the encounter doesn’t die because YOU refuse to attack it, it really doesn’t matter if everyone is alive. Every class (9, elite specs are NOT new classes) has their pros and cons, some are better at “healing”, some are better at tanking, some good on dps and some horrible at it. If you want to “heal” allies, you aim for a combination of dps/support depending on your class.

I got curious about mesmer condi so I ended up creating this. I don’t know how it performs live but you can test it if you want. Your primary condis are torment and confusion that comes from weapon skills and shatters. You want to shatter a lot! The traits I picked should grant you easy access to having many clones up to shatter. I just threw full viper there because I have no idea what you can get and the strength sigil is there to get you some personal might stacks that boost your condis. And the wells with alactrity should help with cooldowns.

Heh nice to know I’m not the only one who loves using them on daredevil. Anyway I think they’re too op as an enviromental weapon, so it’s better they are limited the way they are.

Manasa Devi.7958:

I’m guessing the OP wants airship parts.

Nah, I actually enjoy the hot maps.

Anyway I hope the next update gives some kind of sink to these ascended mats you can’t even get rid off for something… Just delete it. I don’t want to delete things ANET, I want them to give me something in return than just waste my time!

It seems people try shooting gallery as their first adventure and after many raging attempts not getting gold they just ragequit and generalize all the adventures as hard as that one. I personally enjoyed most of the adventures but I do get the point that even bronze rank should reward one mastery point. There are some hard ones and if you just can’t do them then don’t. My biggest issue with masteries is that I can’t repeat it! Shame it’s account bound so when you do it, it’s gone forever. This also points to the idea that some players might think that this account bound progression has to be done only on one character and burn out when trying to get it done. Just leave it it be, you get exp anyway from almost anything you do. I think there’s enough points in hot masteries but core tyria ones might get hard to do if you don’t have LS2 (which you should buy though it’s nice).

DPS is always an issue with a build if it doesn’t do that you might as well lay down and pretend you’re dead. Though I’m saying this I don’t use these meta full dps builds except in raids where they are balanced to co-op with the other raid profession builds. I tend to create my own builds focusing on dps (direct/condi/hybrid) and with a hint of some defense from either traits or stats. I’m also not interested in having my toes up on every encounter so some mistakes will be made but I’ll survive those thanks to my personalized builds which are effective yet fun to play.

When it comes to this evil ascended material called Bottle of Airship Oil… What on earth can I waste it on? The only sink after guild hall upgrades is fulgurite: the item you can create new hot ascended armor stats for overpriced cost and crystalline ingot for hot legendary.

So what options do I have?

a) Gather the other ascended materials from other maps and create fulgurite and say bye to your hard earned money
b) Use it on guild upgrades and start wondering now what when it eats all your inventory space
c) Create a hot legendary weapon and after that start wondering now what
d) Can’t sell to vendor -> Destroy the stack(s)

Conclusion: Need more material sinks for this item!

If it’s a jumping puzzle that locks you out, remember that you have to do it only once. A mesmer with portal and good jumping skills can also help you if you happen to find one.

I really recommend chronotank. Instead of focusing too much on toughness you can simply evade/block with so many different skills. Shield blocking and f4 also help at luring VG to the next slice to avoid wrong green aoe placement. On Gorseval you can just facetank the swipe attack and shield block the smash one and do your magical quickness rotations so everyone is happy. Also staying alive is very easy and most likely don’t need to rely on healer at all.

All hoist the colors high! Anet lemme use my geodes on these!

Is this happening on Firefox? Because it doesn’t load any CSS when I view the website on Firefox but Edge works just fine.

Aidan Savage.2078:

Mind mentioning the rarity of each bag? If DT’s is rare, while SW’s is only masterwork, there you go.

Both are masterwork rarity. This price different just doesn’t make any sense and needs to be corrected.

Wiki claims it’s a rare drop from any adventure after unlocking the Uzolan collection. So keep doing them and you’ll get it eventually!

Raids do work even though I haven’t killed any boss except VG. The hardest issue still is 10 people when you were so used to having just 3-4 as a core group for 3 years.

I’ll probably pay 100€ again for next pre-order expansion. Sure there have been some minor issues with hot but they’re dealing with those issues. The price is not just what came on expansion launch, it’s also the stuff that comes after it (including raids and LS3). Price/time spent ratio wise this game has been the most used for me. But I guess people like to pay 70€ for a game that lasts 10 hours!

They need to nerf some bosses too who use the Game Crash -skill.

You can buy sandy bags of gear from Dry top and Silverwastes. Okay no problem except their price differences…

Silverwastes sandy bag of gear costs 80 copper and 15 Bandit crests
Dry top sandy bag of gear costs 10 SILVER 24 COPPER and 28-39* Geodes

*Geode price varies based on map progress

How is this acceptable? Both vendors sell the SAME item yet there is a massive 10 silver difference. Why I’m concerned about this? As long as this continues I don’t have any incentive to do Dry top even though it is a nice map and even better with gliding.

Because shield looks nicer and skill 5 is a nice panic button.

The whole game is end game. You can take your 80 level fully geared toon to starter areas and do things you might have missed. Even after 3 years there are some events I haven’t done yet and I will do them if I notice them.

Cute and deathly. Just like it should be.

Just an additional HOT daily tab like seasonal events have in the daily window. I see no issue. I’m already “forced” to do pvp/wvw dailies because pve core tyria ones take too much “effort”.

There are too many crystalline ore sinks. Removing them from basic decorations was a right move.

These weapon collections seem like a long-term goal than rush in a week one. With that said I have no intention to rush them. I’ll slowly gather flax and make linseed and at some point I have enough to make one.

Personal trade npc on top of bank npc everyone uses… You have a special place in hell whoever does this.

I really don’t get this exploiting environment on mossman. Take one tempest, overload earth regularly, make a nice five star formation around mossman and just dps. Group heal when necessary. That’s it, no need for underwater or some random poles to climb up. The key here is not to move because you can still dps when he stealths (he doesn’t move).

Oh what would I give for 5 man raids…

I think the system is fine. If you don’t want to do certain content then obviously you shouldn’t be rewarded for it. There is enough extra points for you to get “maxed” already so you can skip some points you know you “can’t” do.

You know that loading “issue” with glider when you waypoint somewhere and the game loads just too slow and you deploy nothing and look like a superman?

A No-Glider Glider skin!

Especially cute with asura and charr.

For the best results and satisfaction it’s better for yourself to create a toon on every race and see how the animations look like with the weapons you want to use. Pick the one that YOU like most. Of course if there is a video of these animations watch those instead.

Looks like I got stuck at the very end of the instance after defeating Zhaitan. I’m supposed to meet up with the Destiny’s Edge but they just stand there idle when I move to them and so I can’t progress. Also Caithe has been acting very weirdly the whole instance where she is having the story icon on top of her not sure if this is causing any issues.

EDIT: I should read the text more carefully next time, kitten me

I’m hoping that one day they merge all characters’ crafting progresses and recipes into account bound based crafting.

When you enter the arena in “build mode” you can see your skill 1 having a decoration selected ready to be planted but it nearly instantly disappears and you end up with nothing in skill 1. Something very fishy going on here.

Getting 10 guildies have become a major problem for me. It’s just too much.
