Guild Wars 2

Darkhaven has been such a good home for me, and my fellow guild-mates in [NERD]. The server has made it easy for me to tag up and command open guild ops, or main pug. Support keeps coming, in both kind words and followers.

Thank you Darkhaven

I recently transferred to Darkhaven with our guild [NERD]. I honestly could not be more happy to be in such a good community. The facebook page, the server forums… These guys are really dedicated. Very happy to be here. Bump for Darkhaven, and bump for the Quaggan!

Unbelievable that over a year and no fix… This should be someones priority. I can’t even search viable guild listings because it’s impossible to search for my server…. ugh. Game is called Guild Wars, can’t search for a guild… fantastic.

Couple of issues with the website, although overall I really love how many different forums there are.

Issue #1: Search function, does not function.

Issue #2: Would be amazing awesome to see the start date/time of an OP without having to go into the thread.

Likely to be FAQ:

Q: These issues have already been spoken about on other threads.
A: Please see issue #1

=D

Nice to see someone from Kaineng. It’s too bad our WvW is empty as of late : /

I am in favor of all this. I think adding building might be easier than you may think. I am sure the coding would need to be altered in many ways, but the idea of building siege weapons in WvW can be applied to building homes or other things. Create a woodworker craft that creates blueprints. Players can create/purchase blueprints, “equip them” like the siege, and place them where you choose, and continue to build with supplies you farmed (wood).

Edit: Also, considering this -is- Guild Wars, guild housing to include a large plot of land (instanced) that guild members can collect supplies (Wood, Ore) and deposit them into a guild housing bank. Officers and GM’s can then take that material and build castle walls etc, much like WvW walls, gates, etc. Would create a tighter community within the guild, everyone working together and putting in suggestions of what to build next. possible new guild ranks for the guild based like contractor, someone that expresses the interest to build and upkeep your castle within the guild.

Played MMO’s for 10 years now (FFXI, WoW, Rift, LotRo, SWOR, FFXIV) never dealt with DDoS attacks until GW2, So not sure what other MMO’s are doing for prevention, but they have at one point been larger player base, and all have/had subs.

Yup, they will often provide links on their twitter they want people to follow so they can get the trojans through.

Solution: In order to afford better security and separate servers from Wildstar, ArenaNet can charge their people a $15/mo. subscription fee. Wait, why are you so quiet now? How about thanking them for the 29/30 days of the month it is not effected by outside issues and providing that to us for free?

Good day.

Thanks guys, everyone has been helpful. Even received a private message helping out as well. Truly amazed at the community. I come from many MMO’s, but mostly WoW. The forums there are toxic as is the player base in game. It’s refreshing to be dealing with mature adults, that are willing to help so much. Last night I did hit 80, and purchased up Knights armor, mostly exotic pieces, and will build from there. I only had 19g to work with. Have yet to have time to play with traits and skills completely, but tonight I will sort that all out. Thanks again guys, appreciated!

So I am nearly 80 on my first character, which is a Warrior. Thus far being an up-level in WvW I’ve been speced for Banners/Shouts to help in some productive way, rather than trying to DPS. Once I am 80 and geared however, I would like to play a more roaming style of Warrior, Signets, GS, etc.

So not knowing any of the 80 gear, I’m looking to find out the most productive path once 80. I don’t want to waste points on gear that will be replaced and henceforth make my long term gear goals set further in the distance.

Any advice would be appreciated, I simply do not want to waste my time blowing points or gold in the wrong places. Thanks so much.

I’m not sure why this is an issue, luck is a major part of MMO’s any drop from a boss is luck. Sure there is some statistics relevant to when you should expect to see any given drop based of the simple math of chests open vs. items acquired. What you are seeking seems to be a low % drop rate. And on top of that you seem quite unlucky. Improve your chances by opening more. You may find the nest 3 you open each contain one, increasing your % of drop back to the norm. Or, possibly you are forever doomed. However statistically, that is impossible =D

I am not playing other RPGs. I play guild Wars 2.

Actually, statistically, a purely random chance can always have only one result an infinite number of times. Just because the coin has come up heads ten times does not increase the possibility that the next flip will be tails.

The drop percentage is a constant. And I have had annoyingly “Good” bad luck, in that I’ve gotten a few rare drops from Dry Top chests that are nothing I want.

Another SOLUTION is to let me pick my rare drop, or exchange an unwanted drop for a desired one.

I suppose that can make sense, like the lottery. Playing the same number (same chance) each week, does not increase your odds every week thereafter, because the odds reset each week. (month or w/e the lottery is, I don’t play)

So, it still seems a little whiny, but… I suppose if everything else in the game has some kind of consistency, maybe this should as well, or at least another avenue to approach the item. Eh, at the end of the day, it likely wouldn’t matter if they made another way to obtain the item. Difficult as it may be, it could be another avenue with 100% return, that may or may not take longer vs. trying your luck at infinity.
