Why all the butthurt everywhere…

Its WvW, its not supposed to be fair. War is never fair. Some take advantage of one thing, others the other. If a particular server gave up, then its not the other servers problem. We just take advantage of it. IF you are personally insulted by your own servers incompetence. Make a guild, or join a hard core WvW/ semi core WvW guild that actually gives a cookie about WvW and does something.

If I recalled, this is how most WvW guild on Desolation started. Even IRON was like this, RUIN had such a time before in another game. They weren’t as big as they are now long ago. So start a guild/ hop onto a guild that is trying on WvW in your own server. The other option of course is to come on the forums, and rant over how bad your server is whilst not doing much in terms of commitment, to try to win a battle happening right now in WvW. 1 player makes a difference in every battle;)

In regards of the current situation. RUIN is doing a great job locking down EB, but FS is also doing a great job wrecking havoc during their prime time, and so is Kodash who struggle a bit in WvW. In each BL FS/Kodash do make some lasting punchs here and there that Deso has to react to. Therefor we can all agree that neither FS/kodash have truely given up in WvW. There are a few that still try.

Remember, not EVERYONE can win in WvW. There needs to be 1 winner. Crying on the forums will not get you 1st place in your match up. Right now, all I see as a Deso player is. Most FS players here are completely butt hurt, they might get traumatized by the experience in WvW after all, FS did brag they were the number 1 in EU which they clearly aren’t yet. Kodash is lurking and too busy to make any memorial comments. Deso players are just amused at the rants and excuses they hear of why they shouldn’t be winning in WvW atm.

Agreed, very nice to make me wait forever for the next part of the H-Event I want it now! XD But I’ll wait:P

Regarding the chests, its not really Anets fault. They did say there would be skins in the chest. But the majority Gw2 community got hooked on the excitement of getting awesome skins from Halloween. Who wouldn’t? After seeing such an awesome promo video released by Anet?

People just got over excited, and continued buying keys regardless of the warnings left and right, that these skins were quite rare. Those that got the skins feel lucky and special. Those that didnt, feel devastated by your own stupidity in having such high hopes and expectations that everything in GW2 would be easy to get.

I bought 30-40 keys with a friend. We bought the first 5, and didnt get anything. We just laughed at our luck in voice chat. But we still bought 5 more, and 5 more afterwards as we taunted each other. “Stop it, you’re addicted, you will go broke.” Was quite fun tbh;)

After the chest, we moved on to draining our pockets with candycorns! Giving 100s of candycorns to the kids in LA for TOT bags;) We got some epic stuff out of them, but it was neverless costly but fun:P

Thank you Anet for the fun, and the new jumping puzzles etc. Me and my irl friends have completed most of the act 1 released content now. Cant wait for the next batch;)

Well I do have a Mad King Costume…I have to say it is quite fun to place the tables as “bait” and aoe hit everyone in the bait Xd

I can agree that some people as like myself place the spawned tables at interesting spots, ive thought about it being a bug abuse, but since I can also be hit at the same time. I just see it as a tactical advantage for my costume. Some costumes have an advantage is certain locations, so why not my own?

Ofcourse if im invulnerable when I use the costume, then its unfair but since Im not idk:P

Costume Brawl is just fun:P No need to rage haha. Just be smart of where you pick to fight:) The mummies are brutal imo

One of the most enjoyable aspect of costume brawl is to hunt down a multi champion holder with a friend or two on voice:D

Thank you Anet;)

Guide to Kill Giganticus Lupicus in the Arah Dungeon.

So we killed Lupicus on our first attempt.

For the first phase we bunched up together, with 1 melee killing the grubs and everyone else ranging him.

Second and third phases we simply scattered and DPSed him.

Seriously, he’s not hard! But holy kitten is it necessary to give him so much HP!?!?

Actually I think the HP amount was reduced:o and I dont see whats wrong with his hp amount? Seems good enough to me:/

Well, Its very unfortunate for you but this is not Anets problem:/ It will be their problem if they allowed to pass your suggestion because of farming that would happen again in the dungeons. Where most players would just leave the dungeon after doing part of it.

Try getting a better internet provider with a better deal/increase the amount you pay for a better service? All I can say here is we are in the 21st century, and having a good internet speed is becoming a must to enjoy the various perks of being online in every day life.

Well, last time I checked you can’t craft precision, toughness, condition damage light armor and there is only one set you can’t buy on TP but it is like 40-60 gold for full set. So it is either running Arah or farming gold for ages. I may be wrong, though.

Well there are some secret recipes out there. Well not really secret, just that people haven’t found them and some items don’t seem to be in game yet, even if it exists on the leaked database details. Leaked/posted idk.

I melee the 3rd phase, I find it helps the group a fair bit if Lupi agros me in melee, as every one can pretty much stand around and shoot him. Some times he will continue to chase other people but half the time he will fight me in melee.

To melee him make sure you have stability to get out of his prison orb, and make sure you have a stun breaker as well. Make sure that you reserve dodges for his barrage attack, some times it will still hit you once or twice for 2-3k after you dodge out of it. Having a second source of stability can be a real help, if he hits you twice in a row with the prison orb.

Hmm Ive never seen someone do this and I dont plan to try myself:P I think the balerina move will pwn me instead

Crafting each piece of trinket / armor / weapon costs about 2g. That’s a total of 13-15 items you need to craft. Not a lot of people have 30g when they hit level 80.

Hence my point.

Then play the game and go explore. I did this on the first couple days of gw2. I didnt even buy my lvl 400 huntsman mats other than globs which I used to make exotics with that I wanted.

This is unlikely, since keeping certain information from the community regarding whats been patched is an anti bot measure + it slows down bug abusers/exploiters. If you dont really know whats been altered, and how. You cant really bot + exploit the changes;)

I think Anet only releases the big update patch notes + a vague update of anything thats been altered somewhere just like any other big MMO.

CoF 3. People get so angry at part 1. There is a 5 second time frame where 5 players need to light torches at the same time BUT we all need to cast the “light torch” option within 1-2 seconds of the first person to light all of the torches at the same time. Whilst at the same time if we get into combat the “light torch” casting will be disrupted.

There was this one instance where 1 player with the easiest torch who didn’t even need to kill anything was completely going ballistic on us. Since he was only standing there and everyone else had to kill all the “spawning mobs” at the same time he had the honor to call “Go” to light the torches. Problem here was, every other 4 players understood that we would first say “Ready” when all the mobs have spawned, and the 5th angry player should say “Go” to kill the mobs at the same time. Once we had our mobs killed we would say “R” and once everyone cleared their mobs, the angry player was supposed to say “Go light” so we would all sync nicely.

BUT

After 30minutes, we all realized that the angry player was our reason to fail. He kept on lighting everytime he said “Go” and we told him. He went all crazy and spoke some foreign dialect and rage quit. We just got a random Pug in after the drama, and finished the first part within 5 minutes.

Lesson of the day. Kick all rude inpatient players at the start who aren’t greatful that his own party is actually doing all the hard work, and letting him sit on some rock and do the easy part. Call “Go”.

If you want max stat gear. You can get them within 24hours by crafting. As Kevin said, only those that want the cosmetic gear require to do extra work to obtain max stat gear.

Also, why did you repost your own post? This was already posted on my thread, and you got the exact same reply as Kevin just gave you and I. Also, my own post wasnt about making dungeons more difficult, it was to fix the flaws with glitchs/bugs which made dungeons extra easy.

Link to the original arguement:
https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/List-of-too-EASY-Dungeon-paths-bugged-Need-fix/first#post478179

Edit:
It used to be that many complained dungeons were too hard on the forums. As Anet did predict and mention. The community will eventually see the dungeons to be ok in difficulity BUT there were some excessive complaining about certain dungeon paths such as CoF 1 and 2. Anet responded accordingly, even with the developer coming into the dungeon. Some quick fixs were made to calm the crowd down and look at what we have now. EASY CoF paths + bugged. Sure the quick token farming was somewhat destroyed, but so did the challenges. Do you really want to have all the dungeon paths ruined and made easier all the time? Wheres the fun in that.

Now I see more rants about Dungeons being too easy compared to before and the numbers are growing. But at the same time I see more players posting how fun they thought certain dungeons were. So all I can say is Anet needs to rethink their dungeons to fix them, by making the NPC mobs smarter + more enjoyable to play vs whilst making sure the majority 50-100percent of the PvE community + others are happy with the difficulty.

@Zechizen I am not asking for a hardcore mode. These are simple modes to stop the noob mode they are on right now. How is making a boss more active an elitist view of making a dungeon OP for the casual mass? It just makes a dungeon become more dungeon like.

Is it good for more players to access more content? I dont see having easy content worth accessing. TA last boss? CoF 1 last boss? I dont even want to argue.

So basically you’re saying to make all dungeons harder.

Yes and no. Dungeons need fixing, and rethinks when it comes to making them more challenging. Some dungeons were fixed, but some paths were made incredibly easy whilst others became bugged/flawed.

Massive amounts of content in Dungeons are either being skipped/ ignored. This needs to be fixed.

really important thread, especially for HotW. i found that the hardest parts of SE are often skipable (especially in path 3).

but for real, i can honestly say i’ve ran 2/3 of HotW while i was falling asleep.

what can we do to the bosses to make them tougher ?

Make the boss smarter. They seem bulky and dumb. More mobility/spells/effects. Reduce HP, make Totems/Ads a threat are some of the few steps the community wants to see I think. Im sure the Anet dev team can think up a couple more with a cookie box to think over;)

“1. Walk if you cant afford the waypoint”

If your solution to the anti boring system is don’t use the anti boring system. . . It is not fine. Waypoint costs must go. Regular players are asked to walk around like chumps while bots use beaming codes and farm everything. Players are asked to trudged to dungeons to play together. You have to pay to help guildies. It’s dumb, and must leave.

“7.I didnt buy a game to have a breeze on it. I expect challenges. Money is a challenge amongst other things in the game. "

Money is a grind. Please define your words better. Also, I doubt anyone would call using a waypoint challenging so, by this point, their fee is not required.

“10.Be smart when you place orders/bids on the Trading Post. Dont undercut others by 10s or more. 1c or 0c will do the job. Dont place orders that you cant afford. Dont place bids over 1c or more. This is just stupid and wastes your money, and everyone elses. Dont sell junk on the TP, you loose money on the listing fee. Sell your junk to vendors.”

Do realize if something is currently selling for 6 copper and you put a buy order for 10, you pay the 6 and are refunded the 4 leftover copper.

I dont even want to argue with you. I will answer this for the sake of answering. We all have our own opinions of how things should be. I say that I want waypoint costs kept. Thats that. This is the suggestion forum and good day to you too.

Lupicus doesn’t reset in 2secs just fyi. You can easily roll on the side too and still be in range to hit him so he doesn’t reset.

I am not talking about the sparks switching targets, I’m talking about the fact that you can just pull Simin outside of the room and kill her, which means completly ignoring the part where players have to trigger the circles around the statue. I believe the way dev intended players to do the sparks in the circles little puzzle and not just ignore it.

Yeah, well you dont even need to pull Simini out of the room. You can do that inside too. You can completely ignore the sparks, and just dps spam Simini by the altar if you want.

Also, I dont know the exact time it takes for Lupicus to reset, as I can only see my own screen. I am not posting on the forums to discuss the time it takes to reset Lupicus. I dont have problems killing Lupicus. I even wrote one of the first guides on Lupicus. I know what Im doing. I just think that this needs to be fixed for the PUGs. Its one fix that doesn’t make the fight easier, but more interesting. It feels like you are fighting in a fight pit and not in some random space in the dungeon.

First of all, you didn’t need a specific group setup for last boss in COF path 1 pre-nerf. You only needed someone that could apply chill and poison on the boss.
Giganticus Lupicus won’t reset if one person is hitting him. Clearly, he is reseting because no one in your group is hitting him.
Please, explain to me why do you want people to clear the entire room before Giganticus when the drops are awful?
Is this the first mmo you’ve ever played? Clearly skipping unecessary mobs is not new to mmo players.
You’re asking the dev to fix trash to make the dungeon harder? It makes absolutely no sense. An easy way to make a dungeon hard is to put enrage timers to bosses.

Edit: I really like how you forgot to mention Simin. Obviously the bruteforce way is the correct way right? the sparks and the circles around the statue are just for looks.

Ive done Simini the correct way with using the sparks. I actually think the sparks are supposed to be jumpy, but untill a dev says otherwise. I wont say the sparks are bugged.

Also, I have played other MMOs, WoW being one of them. BUT I have to say the way dungeons are built in Gw2 is not the same as WoW. In gw2 even the “trash” is part of the dungeon. They ARE the dungeon, as much as the boss. Also, to top it up. Ive actually gotten more rare loot from random “trash” in dungeons than the boss itself. Ive gotten exotic orange items from the boss, never a trash mob, but the chances are very low. Get why I want to clear trash mobs? And not skip them? Plus I get a lot of random 1s here and there on each “trash” squad.

About Lupicus, I want Anet to change the arena because Sometimes everyone in the group may be too far from lupicus to hit him because we just dodge rolled out of the aoe range/circles for 2 seconds. It doesnt happen often, that Lupicus resets, but it does happen. When it does, the PUGs get devistated and people tend to leave 1 by 1 as it happens over and over on some groups. Lupicus isnt hard, but this is a moral basher when this sort of thing happens. Plus I dont think it can hurt that the Arena itself that Lupicus is in can be considered one big fight pit.

Only thing I will disagree with you on is CoF path one final boss. Before it was impossible if you didn’t have a group of fully exoticed balls to the wall DPS traited characters. I do agree that its much to easy now. There needs to be a middle ground.

I completely 100% agree with you on HotW. I hate doing that dungeon. Its to easy and to boring. Half the amount of HP of the bosses but give them some real mechanics instead of 2 abilities and 64215937 million HP.

I agree, the previous CoF 1 last boss was quite the challenge. It was near impossible for most groups, and required a bit too much coordination to hope for in most PUGs. Something in between would be nice.

Waypoint costs are fine.
Armour repair costs is fine too. Nothing is wrong with these 2 costs.

1. Walk if you cant afford the waypoint
2. Do events to pay for your waypoint costs. The events are there for a reason.
3. Dont die
4. Stop salvaging items if you cant afford to. Itll save you TONES of coins. Sell your junk to vendors and save up money to salvage if you must.
5.Dont skip content. If you do, its your own fault you dont have money.
6.Dont ask for more nerfs on the forums, because it make sthe game easier.
7.I didnt buy a game to have a breeze on it. I expect challenges. Money is a challenge amongst other things in the game.
8.Stop being cheap.
9.Being lazy isnt an excuse for nerfing content.
10.Be smart when you place orders/bids on the Trading Post. Dont undercut others by 10s or more. 1c or 0c will do the job. Dont place orders that you cant afford. Dont place bids over 1c or more.

A casual's dungeon review

Good to see you enjoy running random dungeons:) Thats the good thing about Gw2. You arent forced to grind a dungeon to get the best gear. You can just run a dungeon for the enjoyment with friends/experience. You can just log in for a few, and log out in a few after a dungeon. Then come back when you have the time.

Why is CoF sooo easy?

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: DKP.4196

Because a lot of haters cried on the forums to get CoF nerfed so they can farm up their CoF gear and Anet nerfed it. Now CoF is a breeze to finish except path 3. Most people dont even bother with path 3, only those that are into completing the dungeon Master title. And those that want the Dungeon Master title dont cry about difficulties in Dungeons if they are hard to do.

List of too EASY Dungeon paths/bugged. Need fix.

Forgot to mention CM.

- This dungeon I thought was ok, but I havnt really run the paths multiple times. I just do this dungeon when my friends ask which isnt often. What I did notice was that a lot of people try to skip a lot of content here + drag out certain boss’s. Like that shotgun boss. Most people skip the room full of silver mobs by going invis up to a ramp, then entering a small room. Then run off invis into the water. This needs to be fixed…

Arah
- 4th path final boss, blood stone, can be afk ranged. Isn’t this the final battle against this specific blood stones full power? Please make it feel like it is. The scenery seems a waste compared to what the dungeon offers for a challenge. The jungle part with gorillas can be completely ignored. The poison + stump boss with green stuff everywhere is an afk fest.
- Too much speed clears/skipping going on in this dungeon. I know its a long dungeon but its the last dungeon + hardest atm. Ofc its going to be long, and players should know that itll take time to finish this dungeon. I’ve heard people finish the Warden path within 20-40min. Please fix this speed clearing/skipping nonsense. It destroys the value of any Arah Items. Ive lost complete respect for CoF gear, and ive lost all respect for any Arah fully geared players. Most have just token farmed the dungeon, but not all have gotten the weapons yet. Please fix this asap.
- Lupicus needs to be fixed so the WHOLE arena is considered combat range. Its very demoralizing for PUGs to see lupicus reset at phase 2-3 because everyone stepped too far from Lupicus. Please fix this. Also make it so Lupicus cant be dragged otuside of the arena? I know that Lupicus does reset once it leaves the Arena, but it still doesnt stop some from trying to drag Lupicus to a waypoint. Even if it means Lupicus might reset multiple times. Its so much work to fix Lupicus so hes back in the Arena when someone tries to pull him out. I’ve joined groups where they were stuck at Lupicus, and I saw Lupicus half way up the steps outside the Arena.
- The steps outside Lupicus is currently completly ignored. Only the abominations + certain things are attacked to clear a quick easy path to Lupicus. Please fix this. This is just fail. I want loot from the mobs, and it doesnt take too long to clear the steps.
- The final area before the Mursaat path boss can also be run through and ignored.
- The Mursaat underwater area with the sharks are too buggy. Players get stuck in the walls. I always lead PUGs in this place, to show them where to go, but half of them always get stuck in the walls and its very annoying to try to get them out/run them back through the minefields.
- The Warden last boss Giants are completely ignored. The last boss fight is also very easy, both phase 1 and 2.
- The Varra path has many skippable contents, please fix this. I want to kill things, I want loot. I dont want to be called a noob when the team gets wiped because only half of us were trying to kill stuff while the other half runs through skipping everything.

Edit:
- During the Lupicus fight. Please make it so the grubs dont spawn on the NPC? Its quite common that the NPC like Randall melees Lupicus and gives free stacks of grubs to Lupicus.

TA
- Too much skippable content + last boss is still afk fest. Make me FEAR the nightmare tree not laugh at it. Make it do more epic stuff. Why do these strong nightmare generals devote themselves to this tree? Its so weak?
- Flowers/nightmare puppies. The flowers I read is being fixed. The puppy zerg is just in my way. Please fix this so there is a point to puppy zergs.

SE
- A lot of buggy content that needs to be fixed. Audio, Movement, display. Please re-test this dungeon and fix all of them. There is too much to list.
- Make this dungeon harder? There is too much speed clears, it makes it so easy.
- A lot of things that needs to be fixed in this dungeon. I cant even begin where to start, please just redo this dungeon. Make it better if possible Thank you.

Thank you for your time, and I hope a dev would read this so dungeons get improved. Please STOP the nerfing. Stop making dungeons easier to complete, either fix the content because its bugged or make them harder/add more challenges. Making dungeons easier is NOT the solution. Sometimes it feels like I paid for an EASY game . Not a game where I feel challenged, and can be proud of my accomplishments. Even if its a game, i still want my moneys worth + times worth. I don’t buy games to have an easy time completing it/playing.

Hi,

I think these dungeons need to be fixed by Anet. They are too easy. Easy as in, they can be speed cleared very quickly + the last boss is not challenging at all.

CoF Path 1
- The first boss with the fire whip is too easy to take down. The fire effigy that spawns constantly is pretty much ignored. Most parties just stand still, and range/melee rub the boss whilst the fire effigy just waves its arms around.
- The Part where we need to kill the acolytes to stop the execution of a NPC is too easy. Usually parties just kill the acolytes and jump about until the next group of acolytes spawn. This is just a kite fest, nobody even bothers with the extra mobs. This is an execution we are trying to stop right? I don’t feel the rush to stop it, I can even type /dance and dance for a while during this part.
- Final boss makes me want to sleep. Compared to what it used to be, this boss is a joke. Before, the party had to coordinate a mass dps with constant poisons on the boss + dodge constant crystals + boss attacks. The fire dot from the boss was a killer. We got multiple wipes left and right until we finally got a good sync with each other and killed the boss. Now this boss doesn’t even require poison, synced attacks, destroying crystals, dodging attacks, healing up and taking away the fire dots. The boss doesn’t even reach 25 stacks of healing anymore.

HoTW path 1-3
ALL the boss need to become more intelligent and stronger. They are too WEAK with a LOT of HP. Please make them stronger + smarter. The HP is fine if Anet just makes the boss smarter. The only interesting boss in this dungeon is the 2x quags + frost mage boss but hes also quite unintelligent for a boss. This needs to be fixed.

- The Butcher totems re-spawn too fast, and most parties just ignore them. Please make it so the totems must be taken care of? Make this boss more intelligent.

- The Traps in this dungeon isn’t even a trap.

AC Dungeon
- Its too repetitive. The same thing happens every 1-3 paths. Mounds appear, kill mounds, then spider, then traps, then random troll with spinning boss. And the troll is stronger than the spinning boss. Is this not supposed to be the EPIC City of Ascalon? Where the Charrs fought their war? I dont feel the power of the dungeon compared to the lore behind it.
- The last boss for all 3 paths are too easy. I think the boss itself is ok, but the surrounding mobs are not. Most groups just ignore more than half the breeders in the room, and kill the boss. On the Ghost Eating boss part, most parties just ignore the ooze. Whats the point in the ooze? How did some random ghost eater kill all the knights of Ascalon? Please make these ooze stronger, or something so they are noticed.
- I want my 5s from the champions, let me kill it! Stop the PUGs skipping half of the champions. Its good money and pays for my repair bills + greed.

CoE
- The giant lava room boss with lasers to take down his shield. Please fix this fight. The idea is epic but the actual fight is quite poor in comparison. Its too…passive and boring. Please try to fix this and make this fight action packed.
- Subject Alpha sometimes bugs out. There is a specific method that kinda works to bug out this boss, and it needs to be fixed. It makes the fights quite boring.
- The turret boss, with the 5 turrets? I forgot his name, its full of numbers but this boss fight is also quite fail. The boss needs to dish out more damage, or make the turrets worth attacking. This boss can also be ranged from a safe distance and not get hit.

World liberation by Guilds, and the taxing of NPCs and people

Would be very interesting if some of these points were implemented. I think “Vanguard” and a couple other MMOs tried this, but failed miserably due to lack of active players + only a handful were hardcore enough to even do the various tasks.

But…I highly doubt Anet will pass these, as these ideas dont really sound like GW2 imo. Its another game;) But A suggestion cant hurt:) Hope it gets a stronger support than mine:P It sounds nice but idk, cant see it happening in gw2.

Game Already Dying?

Fresh Meat is required, and it will come after the new Halloween patch. I am personally playing other random games, while I jump on gw2 for a bit here and there. I am no longer actively playing gw2 due to lack of end game content. I dont want to finish the game, I can feel the end. I dont want to feel the end to an MMORPG, so I am waiting for the new update before I continue zerging my way through Tyria again.

Edit:

Also, due to the lack of none EU players in my server “Desolation” during GMT 00:00-10:00. Gw2 does feel a bit empty. It feels as if Desolation has gone to bed, and anyone up are the nightshift in WvW or the left overs in the dungeons who are already running and close to finishing the last dungeon of the night.

I would love to move to an US server during the night time in deso, but I think I would just face the same issue in deso. Ironic how Desolation become Desolated during the night in EU.

You dont get more rare/exotic. You get more greens/blues or better crafting materials/salvagable.

Just because you have good magic find doesnt mean you’re supposed to get only rare/exotics. Dont you think its a bit OP?

Also, keep in mind that magic find boost is only a percentage stat within the whole loot drop calculations. It helps having it, its better than nothing. Its just the psychological effect it has doesn’t exceed the expectations of players in drops.

Id love this but no thanks:/ It just makes Rangers OP. We dont need these upgrades. What we need is a tad bit more dps capabilities when ranging and make it the differences more clear for shortbows & longbows. Also perhaps more traps & varieties.

Some people just can find time Oulivas;)

Also, I afk/do silly stuff like jump on the fish heads for 1-2hours in LA Grand Piazza. Quite hard;) Should be a jumping puzzle tbh.

Also Lutharr, yes more desirable “special” skins would be nice. Something that doesn’t take as long as the legendaries, but something we players can hope and expect to get within 1-3 weeks of killing something. (Without grinding/farming the event)
