Guild Wars 2

Esquilax.3491:

Try to find me an example of a long ranged PvE weapon which is actually effective. Pro-tip: you can’t.

Scepter for Necros, Guardians, condi mesmers, and Ele’s? Shortbow and Axe for condi ranger? Longbow for condi warrior? Dude there’re a buttload of them.

I…. wouldn’t exactly claim my necro to be “dark and edgy”… o_O

These freakin’ buggs happen everywhere. Just for kicks, this is what Thaumanova looks like after you killed the boss but didn’t get any credit or loot.

Bean Muncher.5197:

Agreed with OP. Especially the sound has to go, it is so annoying I have to play with instruments off whenever I play herald.

Does this also get rid of Glint’s “voiceacting”? You know, the guttural shout that sounds like a little old lady passing a kidney stone?

Yes please, bring it back to how it used to be during 2013!

Wander.5780:

What is the point of playing an MMO without a monthly fee when you can’t even customize your character to your liking through playing the game itself… And don’t give me the “you can buy gems with gold” reply.

Uhm… The point is to play the game and have fun while doing so O_o If the only thing that makes this game fun for you is the fashion then yer probably gonna go through burn-out symptoms pretty regularly.

So, are the Machined Weapons collection bugged? I got my Plated Greatsword but no collection has been added.

It’s in Basic Collections : Machined “weapon name”

I must have gone through that part three times, missing it. I tried using the search function, and “machined” turned up jack, so I assumed it wasn’t working correctly.

Noxious Pod farm, here I come..

So, are the Machined Weapons collection bugged? I got my Plated Greatsword but no collection has been added.

I can’t check right now because I’m at work, but if I remember correctly you can grab that one by hopping to the Leyline Confluence waypoint and running north-west through the nuhoch lane?

Staff is invaluable while farming events, the ability to tag huge amount of mobs without running up to their faces is amazing. It’s all about exp per hour right now, ye?

I’m not sure what you’re complaining about…? I got it on the second try (didn’t get up into the air quickly enough).

Pretty fun fight. Not as challenging as Liadri was.

I, for one, welcome our new Pear overlords.

Galtrix.7369:

I came up with the best glass cannon build I could find, and I still only do 30% of the damage a warrior (with twice my health and armor ) does.

This is just a blatant outright lie, with a percentage taken out of thin air. Here you go, here’s some math for you to check out.

I need to ask an obvious question, are you jumping into the face of the clock, or do you wait until it revolves another time and the face breaks, making an entrance appear?

edit: also, no, I didn’t have that issue.

Also, the Triforge pendant while not upgraded (and the crafted celestial amulet) have the option of using a normal Jewel instead of an infusion slot. I’m using it with a exquisite ruby jewel.

Crescendoll.7612:

Useless? I got a free pair of celestial gloves. You know ya can chose yer own stats on ’em, right?

Lies there is on celestial stats for you to pick from.

There was on the light ones, a person in my guild had the same issue with his heavy ones. Dunno what to tell ya mate, I’m wearing a pair of celestial gloves that I didn’t craft :p

BoogerSammich.7189:

Is there other gear as well or just gloves? would be super nice to be able to aquire a full celestial set just for running clock tower

Just the gloves as far as I know mate!

Useless? I got a free pair of celestial gloves. You know ya can chose yer own stats on ’em, right?

So what do you guys play your games for? A sense of accomplishment I guess, whether it be to beat the next mob or collect that next piece of gear, or just to do the acctual fighting? Regardless, those guys sense of fun is collecting achievementpoints, I really don’t understand why you people can’t accept that. It’s what makes this game fun for them.

I like how people in this topic are claiming that HB is the god of all DPS….

Sure, that video of 100k+ damage on a single HB is quite impressive, as burst damage. What happens if you have to use it more than once in a fight? Will it always hit for 100k+? No, it most likely will not.

Lets give that dude a good average, and say it hits for 70k per activation, thats 70k dmg over 3,5s with a 8s CD, thats 11,5s for those 70k, that’s a bit more than 6k dps. Sure, it absolutely decimates trashpacks, but on bosses where he’s going to have to use it several times in the fight, not as impressive anymore, is it?

Skimmed through this thread… Just have to say this;

Dungeon selling does NOT affect you as a player IN ANY WAY AT ALL

It’s not like theres a “maximum amount of LFG posts” in the LFG tool or anything of the like. “But people are buying paths instead of running them!”. No, people who buy the runs usually wouldn’t be running at all without that option.

Stop whinging and crying about something completely separate from your gaming experience, I seriously have no idea why you are raging over this.

Gonna have to give your PvE gear a 5/10, it was a nice composition and a good colorscheme, but it’s just another full human T3 elementalist :/

Your PVP set is, full vigil, aye? I tried to make something similar but failed horribly, I really like that set. 7/10, would have been higher with a different colorscheme.

Here’s my Elementalist, tried creating an outfit surrounding the HotW gloves, an itempiece i see far to rarely! Just love the gems on them

To be honest man, I read to the point where you claimed that there’s no teamwork in this game. That’s just not true, and you’ve apparently not had enough experience of organized playing to see that, which makes it redundant to read the rest of your post. I glanced over the last part, and it seems like a suggestion to convert the current classes into classic trinity-esque jigsaw pieces.

It’s not gonna happen man, and I’m glad for it.

The light armor looks amazing on human females. Just saying

Really looking forward to start crafting these! I just wish to god that celestial armour doesnt take longer than all the others, once again..

I do CoF, CoE, HotW, AC and sometimes CM on a daily basis, and I can’t remember the last time I was kicked from a group. If you’re getting kicked daily, maybe the issue isn’t with the groups you join, but…

Thank you Paul for your swift response, and I apologize for whining.

An absolutely amazing dungeon, this is exactly what I have been craving! Thank you!

Happened to us too… Spent 2(?) hours in there figuring it all out without help, and finally down the Oak after an EPIC battle, and boom. Bugged.

I’m usually not one to whine and KI7TEN, but this ticks me off. ANet, how much internal alpha do these things go through?

Massive sigh.

Brando.3891:

What do you think about guys?

I’m more of a ladies man myself, but to each his own!

On topic though, no, I don’t think it’s worth the effort getting an Eternity. If the light and dark effects had been mixed in a single blade, floating and curving around eachother, now that would have been something!

Gonna give ya a 7/10, cause I like the outfit itself, but white and gold has been done to death mate! Also, could go for a different staff.

I’ve no idea which legpiece to use with this chest/shoulder combo, I use D/D so I want to look rather mobile, and the phoenix legs are the only light armor that I found looks good and still agile. Need to change the boots, but matching phoenix legs is hard :C

dekou.6012:

Just compare GW2’s FGJ to GW1’s pre-nerf version of FGJ. GW2’s skill just gives you an attribute boost, while GW1’s skill gave you a unique bonus that doubled the amount of Adrenaline you got, making your skills “recharge” twice as fast.

I don’t want to be “that guy”, but… http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Frenzy_

<_<

I have to agree with Gandalf, soulbound is there because you SHOULD buy new gear for the new toon that you create, it keeps money rolling and the economy in check. There’s really no other explanation.

Well the hardest instanced boss in my book must have been Liadri, never had that many attempts on any other boss before getting her down. Not a dungeonboss, but oh well!

Dungeonwise I must say the Spidertree, that’s one tough cookie.

Had no lagg whatsoever. Skills worked perfectly fine.

A really pretty flower ya got going there, I’m gonna give you an 8/10, removing 1 point for the eyepatchmaskthingie, I don’t like those things, and 1 more point for the haircut which I don’t particularly like either. The mix of purple and green you got going on there mixes flawlessly, great work

I posted a bit earlier in this thread, but since then I finished crafting my greatsword and decided that the regular clothy armor is impossible to match with it, so I completely revamped myself into a fullblown plant.

(edit) added a higher res vesion of the front view.

Oh, hey guys, I don’t have a lot to contribute with, I’m just a friendly Sword/horn & GS wielding ranger popping in to say hello. We’re not extinct.

@Hunterkiller

I absolutely loathe that helmet of yours, it makes ya look like Shredder, and your colors clash with eachother, and I can’t really stand non-symmetrical shouldergear. I don’t see what theme you were going for mate :/ Sorry but I’m going to have to give you a 2/10.

Sometimes I think my ranger, Discordia, is in fact a little bit insane. She does seem to act like it.

Acctualy, you do still get the 20 fragments per path, regardless if youve done the path before that day. The 20 fragments are included in the 26s/20 token completion chest, not the daily 1-3 gold / 40 token chest.

We havn’t had an answer for this in more than 5 months now, so I’d suspect none is coming now either.

It got to the point where I shelved my engineer when ascended weapons hit the ground, and went back to my warrior instead. The kit mechanic has so many issues that go unaddressed that I just want to scream at someone, we need an answer, any answer, just a “we’re working on it” or similar.

A retired engineer is a sad engineer

This is why a-net always closes speculation posts, because people like Daecollo misinterprets them and then spreads them all over the forums. Daecollo has made this same thread on all the proffession forums.

All the change means is that you won’t be able to stack boons ontop of each other to get 2 minutes of swiftness or 1 minute or burning etc.

Quite early after launch I saw a fellow, dressed in medium armor in pink and yellow colors, named Lord Yolo Swagster. Made me both facepalm and giggle a bit.

Chaotic Storm.2815:

now that would be a melee kit i could get behind. We could treat the skills like a sword or hammer. the skills could be something like this
1. continous swinging, of which every hit applies bleed.
2. continous swinging, of which every hit applies bleed, invokes fear.
3. continous swinging, of which every hit applies bleed, invokes even more fear.
4. Cackle madly as you swing the chainsaw, applying bleeds.
5. Overcharge the chainsaw, causing the chain to rip and slash your foe, applying a massive amount of bleeds.

Fixed that for ya!

Finished my greatsword yesterday, and I must say I really like the hilt and pommel, but the blade itself is really underwhelming. It should have a wider tip and middle section, the way it is now makes it look very unbalanced!

Here we go… I try to see my engineer as someone who crossed over from the Fallout universe.

Where did you get this crazy idea from? I find everything crystal clear, and every detail is an exposé of exquisite art!

I think I recognize that kittys portrait..

6/10 for both of them. I like the colorscheme and the theme you wen’t for, but I have an aversion to “painted on” armors, especially on norns and asuras, unlucky picks :p Looks like they’re wearing spandex.

I just spent two days completely revising my warriors looks, going from more or less full cultural T3, to a more heavy armor look. I got tired of warriors running around in laced bras and cloth, and wanted to make something that acctualy looks like heavy armor, this is were I wound up (left is before, right is after);

Guess we’re intentionally screwed. Well, there goes any plans I had on getting ascended for my engineer. No more altoholicism :/

And not a single word on this, getting so tiresome >_< //whine whine whine

I really do hope so, I’m thinking about shelving my engineer due to the ascended weapon grind.. I want one, but I want the weapon to matter, which it really doesn’t on a kituser :/

I’ll be kitten ed, completely overlooked it. Ordeal, you are a gentleman and a scholar and have my thanks!
