Guild Wars 2

Hi,

I’ve recently returned to GW2 after some time away and unfortunately the guild I was in has become inactive, so I’m looking for a new one to replace it. I’m looking for a Guild with friendly members who quest/achievement hunt/dungeon together on a semi-regular occasion.

I’m a Level 80 Asuran Engineer on the Underworld server. However, I am willing to switch worlds and create a new character if necessary. Feel free to message me in game with invites, or just post here.

Thanks!

There was a workaround that helped me get this skillpoint when it was bugged. You needed a warrior or a guardian (I can’t remember which, there were a few of both there) to cast a spell on him (an AoE line spell) and he will then be agro’d on the player.

It was a while a go that I got this, so I can’t really remember too much of it, but I hope it helps somewhat until they fix it.

How is it bugged? What server? At what point is it bugged? Can the bug be replicated? These are the things the bug team need to know in order to fix your issues. Have you submitted a bug report in-game as it sends a report directly to the team that are responsible containing information that’s useful for fixing the bug.

If you’re unsure on how to do that, you can hit Esc -> Support -> Report a Bug. Failing that, you can just type /bug in chat and it will bring up the window.

Hope this helps.

There is an entrance that’s actually quite easy to find when you know what you’re looking for. It’s directly under the mountain/cave where the Sons of Svanir. There is a little bit of ‘rubble’ on the map to mark it.

Keep this in mind as it will help you a ton later in the game with finding stuff.

Whozaka – Yeah, I’m good as part of a team, being able to do a lot of damage as well as buff people makes the engineer a really useful person to have on a team, just seems like I turn in to another player when I’m on my own. It’s strange to explain.

Kataclysm – Thanks for your advice, the rifle itself has a net ability and it’s quite handy to pop that for CC and that’s why I opted for the Elixir B in it’s place for the long list of buffs it gives me. I used to play with the med kit, but found the bug where you can’t put it away with the same button you take it out with a slight annoyance and that’s why I chose the Elixir H until it’s fixed. I’ve never really played with turrets since early game so I might try out the thumper later on when I’m in game. The same with mines.

I’m not not enjoying the game because of this though, it seems a minor setback with the balancing of the game. It just seems to annoy my guildies that I’m constantly asking for help with a mission where there’s more than 2 enemies at a time.

My personal belief is that the top level story quests are just too hard. I play with guildies on skype and they too are having issues with the higher level story quests. We have a mesmer, 2 rangers and 2 elementalists. All of us agree that some of the quests are just too hard.

I’ve heard from other threads that they are meant to be played with other people, but then why are the called PERSONAL story missions? Seems a bit daft. I know the game shouldn’t be child’s play, but it’s getting ridiculous and expensive to constantly fail all the time.

Ah well.

The Engineer, one of my favourite professions in Guild Wars 2. I’ve spent many hours with my Asura and I’m loving every second of it, the ability to absolutely wreck enemies in one battle to helping out your allies with boons in another, it really seems like the perfect profession for me. However, I have some serious issues when it comes to end-game content.

I’m not here to spoil anything, but by now you should understand that high level areas are full of strong enemies? Right? Well this is where my issues lie. The engineer sucks at tanking any sort of damage. I’ve even gone so far as to respec my build in order to accrue more health and defense, but I still find myself low on health kiting and dodging enemies until my buffs and healing ability kick in.

I just feel so helpless when in a dungeon, an ally gets downed, and I’m left to tank some of the damage and I just can’t take it. I’ve even resorted to getting my party members to join me in personal story missions as they are just too difficult to attempt on my own (and that’s from level 50 onwards).

And before anyone comes and states that I’m not very good at the game (although I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not great), I have played as a ranger and warrior without any issues.

For what it’s worth, I’m currently using a very powerful rifle and use the Elixir H, Grenade Kit, Elixir B, Elixer Gun and Summon D-Series Golem.

Is anyone else having an issue with the profession, or am I just being a complete noob?
