Guild Wars 2

Today my games keeps giving me this error(dc) after playing a for a bit, have had this already 5 times in a couple of hours. The game will get stuck and needs to be manually closed with task manager. I haven’t had this error before and i didn’t do anything different today. Anyone else all of a sudden having this error today?

I had the same thing with selling today and was wondering if anyone had it too, i listed a recipe for 15G meeting lowest seller before i went to bed. I logged in this afternoon hoping it was sold and it says it does but there was no money, i payed the listing fee but i got nothing from selling it. Kinda annoying since i need all my money for ascended crafting.

This system definitly needs some more work cuase some of us are getting screwed by it, I did 3 dungeons since the last update and I’ve only got 30 tokens per run every time while some of my team mates got 45 or even 60, I had this yesterday at CM at the third path, I never did this dungeon in explorable and yet I get 30 while someone in my team who have done it once before(not within 24H) get 60, come on ArenaNet, what the heck is the deal with this? And please don’t give me the crap with DM, the first 2 times were Magg wich I’ve done before but that shoudn’t matter cause there was more than a 24Hour difference between the runs and according to the updates I should get 20 for completion and 40more for the FIRST time of the DAY!

I did it too but i noticed one thing, the city is not right, mine says I live somewhere else, the country and IP were right though, hope this won’t freak people out and think something is wrong, you never know.

I only have it on my warrior since I got to like lv 60/61, somewhere around there it started appearing for me and has been bugging me greatly for the past few days, i find that stuff that comes out of body prettykittenannoying and ugly, I have to use to use the skill to get it away every single time I use a waypoint, please ArenaNet, remove this.

My traits are the following: 20 in fire for power and 10% extra ower/ 20% faster cooldown trait, 10 in lighting for the 20% faster cooldown with glyphs since I use 3 of them and very often, 10 in earth for a bit more defence and the armor of earth, 10 in water for the extra healing/vitality/ soothering mist and cleansing wave and lastly but for me the most important one 20 in arcane, increased boon duration/ faster attunement recharge rate, attument boon when swithing and +5 seconds for these bonusses and blasting staff for larger AoE.

About the attunements swapping, you clearly don’t want to lower it, here are a few reasons, if you spend point at the arcane trait( explained why above) and switch quite often between them for the boons and then lower the recharge rate you would get them too fast like for example might, you already get enough to last you till the next time you can switch into it when spending some points at this trait, this not the worst part cause that will be switching to earth and water, granting protection and regeneration too ofton would be too much and might even make an elementalist too strong in some cases.

The reason I bring my build and fighting style into this discussion is to show you that things you and others may view like problems aren’t neccesarily problems to other people, on the contrary, changing some things to your liking might ruin builds of others, the elementalist is indeed not perfect and could use things like a little more health though if your healing stays the same and doesn’t fully heal you now you don’t even really need more health. My character does fine in PvE, WvW and dungeons as it is. sPvP is another matter but that is also not where this build is made for. You do have some points and I see that many others agree with you but not everything is a problem, some thing can really be caused by a persons build, his/her fighting style or just that the profession isn’t really suited for them. This is my opinion, you and others may disagree but that’s fine with me, this is what discussions are for.

You say to fix an elementalist, I don’t see how when it’s not even broken.

Before I start I have to say I’ve used a staff since I got one at lv 3 end haven’t switched once, I tried multiple weapons in the beta’s but this one clearly stand out as the best for me.

I agree on a few things with what people have said like the air trait, I hardly use it at all cause it does minor damage compared to the other attunements or atleast in my case and the skills aren’t all that great, the gust is so easily avoidable and also easily blocked by another person/mob, this is extremely annoying when you want a to interrupt someone like an graveling breeder and one of the small one spawns or gets in your way, a blast would be much handier.

About fire, burning retreat is indeed good as it is, it is an extra dodge with a bit of burn but I hardly focus on that, Lava font is also great and Flame burst could use more burn but with the Meteor Shower I have to completely disagree, you say it’s useless aside from WvW, that’snot true at all, it’s one the best skills when focused on mutiple opponents or big ones, the more there are or the bigger they are the better for every shot that comes down, combined with the fire version of glyph of storm and lava font you can wipe many group easily or atleast do tons of damage.

Water is perfect as it is, maybe a bit more healing in Healing rain but I would never complain if it’s stays like this.

Earth, I agree on all fronts except on eruption, it’s shouldn’t get only normal damage and no bleeding, it could use a faster time to hit but this is not needed in the way i use it

I use the follwing utility skills: Glyph of storm, Glyph of lesser elemental and Radiation field and my elite skill is de D-defensive golem and my heal is the standard one which I find the best since they adjusted the one with the healing per skill, that one was indeed overpowered. The glyph of lesser elemental is for using this one as distraction or extra damage mainly when fighting against a single opponent. The glyph of storms is another AoE and this is also what I’m mainly focused on, I can survive in large groups of enemies cause of the following use of skills, whenever they get close I start switching to earth and use the Glyph of storms, this will damage and blind enemies with every hit making you almost invunerable inside, after I use this skill I use Eruption and Radiation field causing bleeding/poison/weakness, next I usually wait for another eruption and then switch to fire while performing the move and then use lava font creating alot of damage and also an area of might effect and as last meteor shower if needed to finish them off, you say the damage is terrible but it might just be your build cause mine is fine and yes I have other characters so I know how much damage they do. Staff can indeed be support but that is mainly the 2nd function, I clearly define it’s purpose as dealing damage and so do other elementalist I know, you hardly see any at a high lv be it alone or in a group use anything other than a staff.

You should see what some people say when this happens, at Malchor’s Leap there was an event with about 25+ people and alot of mobs started to spawn with alot of annoying veterans which made it hard for the bar to make progress and do you know what people did?

They started yelling and complaining that this is too hard and takes too long and started leaving much to the relief of us others cause it made it a bit easiar to do it and we didn’t have to listen to them, it is a fact that most events can be harder with alot of people around and would be more fun but be carefull how much harder you want it, some people can’t handle the pressure.

That ain’t gonna happen cause this is where GW1 and 2 differ, in GW1 everything that was outisde of a town was in fact an instance and so loaded only for you and your pt, this is also why some won’t really call it a MMO, I disagree but it’s a mather of opinion. Sinds every map is avaible for all people you can’t just change it, it either has to become an instance or it will be changed on the starter map for everyone, don’t think you wanna fight lv 80 when you’re lv 2. The other option is more zones which include high levels but for that you have to wait for future updates or expansions, they said they are gonna focus on adding more stuff once they fix most of the problems but who knows what they will add.

I don’t know why you are complaining but you’re horribly mistaking, I’m an artificer lv 400 and i need 5 globs of ectoplasm too, as far as i know all exotic items need 5 of them, maybe some do less or none but I haven’t found any of those, do you really think ArenaNet would make 1 crafting extremely unfair, that would be weird.
