Guild Wars 2

hmmm it seemed to fix itself while i was in the middle of trying the different tests.
hopefully it won’t come back tomorrow.
thanks for the reply though i’ll have to make sure to save it just in case.

does anybody know the answer to this or am i just screwed?

so today when i tried to pull up the launcher it downloaded a small update file, and then right after wards i get the message connection error(s) detected. retrying. and its just been stuck there iv’e tried restarting my computer, restarting my internet but i can’t get anything to work.

my internet can connect to everything else, its just the Gw2 launcher that can’t connect.

and i can’t seem to close it either without having to use the task manager, every time i try to use the (X) on the launcher or try to right click close window it on the task bar it doesn’t respond, and i don’t get that not responding message either.

it works thanks.

iv’e just gotten a new dell inspiron 17, 7000 series labtop which plays gw2 just fine but, when i try to use my F(1-4) keys the computers functions for the keys overrides gw2s functions for them.
and every time i try and play something like my elementalist and i try to switch attunments i end up just messing with the audio.

is there anything i can do to get gw2 to override the computer for the f keys while im playing it?

The reason you can’t do this is that blind, aegis, and 1 time block skills would completely prevent thief from being able to deal damage while in stealth. Thus means when a thief stealths all it can do is run away or eat damage.

Almost like blind, aegis, and 1 time block skills will completely shut down burst skills after the patch….

wait so you’re saying that counterplay and skill will stop things? say it isnt so!!!! so glad thieves will never have to experience counter play.

it is pretty OP in general, i wanna know what it does to the actual kitten boss of the level.

i was doing a 29 daily and just cleared out the skirtt, i picked up a broken bottle and was going to do the 3 events with the ooze first.
i managed to keep the bottle till the boss where i was doing 25k and some change damage with it flat, crits or no with 10k and some change bleed ticks. every hit

i didn’t manage to get a screenshot of it due to my surprise.
and i was running a wvw focused warrior build.

can anyone else tell me if they had the same experience with a broken bottle on the ooze boss? or was i just experiencing some weird “feature”

theres a gif of someone beating a dead horse. where eles are the horse and anets the beater.
eles tornado form gets beaten with the nerf boot but necros lich wells don’t get fixed?
kitten?!?!

winterchillz.2564:

Wow, PvE is now challenging, fun and interesting, yay, who would guess you only need a damage nerf to make dungeons viable again!

what when are they making dungeons viable again? they’ve always been viable this nerf only applied to actual organized groups as pugs groups don’t ever get into a situation where FGS did anything.

only thing this will do is take the ele out of the organized dungeon run, and replacing it with a warrior or guardian.
so fun…

the farming community is actually pretty nice, its like a pool of gasoline running a machine.
but then the matches(anti farmers rich elites) come along and light the gasoline and guess what kitten explodes.

the toxic players aren’t the farmers who just want to make money and not have to be some TP warrior who drive the prices up of goods for their own gain so they don’t have to farm to pay for the increased prices of goods.
the toxic players are the ones preventing people from making money and having a good time.
what do you think happens when you stop a farm? people go do other events? no they sit around and wait or go find something else to farm.
ending farms just kill the map and bring it back it its regular dead self.

They don’t need to be rich.

no but who profits the most from stopping goods and gold from coming into the market and dragging the prices down?

The solution to everyones problem:

1# Enemies in dungeons can see through stealth.
2# All block and reflect skills is limited to five hits.
3# Give FGS4 a ic
4# remove portals from pve and wvw.
5# no more double numbers spots on bosses.
6# Cap damage at max 10k per skill.

There, no more gamebreaking skills in game. Fixed permentaly, and we can all go home and be happy!

make this man a developer asap he knows his stuff.

harpies those winged giant flying rats, and their kitten ed knockbacks.
next would honestly have to be trying to rez pugs, or the ascalonian warriors that use rush and hit you like a ton of bricks or the captain that gets the FGS and spins in place and takes you from full hp to dead.

thanks thats all i wanted to know is if i could add the 2 infusions up.

what im asking is if i infuse my ring and put say a 10 AI from the tp on it can i also put the versatile simple infusion on it also for 15 AR.

or if i right now put the versatile simple infusion for 5 AR on the ring can i infuse it later, then put the 10 AI on it for 15 AR.

i really don’t know much about the infusions and all but atm im trying to farm globs of mist essence so i can infuse one of my rings and put a agony infusion on it.

what i wanna know is if it do that and put one on there can i also put the basic ar resist infusion on there also on the offensive/defensive slot, or before hand can i put the basic in the slot already on there, and then infuse it for more AR.

Lindbur.2537:

The drops would have to be pretty generous, and ANet doesn’t like generous drops.

Anet likes to give us generous drops just look at the dust mites when dry top was released.
its old players who don’t like generous drops, because they have everything and don’t like people making money easier than what they had to do.

The easy and obvious fix that would “fix” this and perhaps to a lesser degree FGS would be to make it so he doesn’t get stuck in the wall. No need for negating reflect on another boss. That would be a reasonable fix and would make him slightly harder.

But doing this is so much fun!

I don’t think FGS should be fix, Lupi just shouldn’t be able to kill himself by reflecting his own damage back at him. The Jungle Wurm was like that and ArenaNet fixed it 2 weeks later.

because the jungle wurm is a world boss thats mobbed by hundreds of players gives a guaranteed rare or exotic with a chest that has a higher chance of giving you something really expensive.

if lupi had more than 5 people attacking him and you only had to destroy 2 objects with low hp and 4 champs to get to him then he probably would have been fixed by now.

The ridiculous damage of the wolf just needs to go. For some reason they get this idea that pumping up the damage so high that you have to use terrain exploits or reconsider your entire build for just one fight is a good idea, or creates compelling gameplay. It does not, and this is why I just get frustrated with GW2 every time I log in after not logging in for months.

No there needs to be more mobs like this. So it isn’t just brain dead auto attack and faceroll. All the mordem mobs are very well designed in the challenging aspect, well a big improvement on what we usually get.

there needs to be more mobs with extremely high health pools and double perma retaliation, with a higher than normal defense that does a lot of damage.
what in the living hell are you on? the only wolves that should ever be created are regular wolves that don’t upscale.
you remember the champion karka with the 785 retal damage? try fighting one that has 785 retal permanently stuck to him then another that constantly gets reapplied and tell me how fun that is.

the only mob that has a worse design than the vet+ wolves are the thresher maws that spit torment everywhere and are virtually immune to damage while their attacking which takes them far away from you so you can’t hit them unless you’re full ranged.
CCing them works unless it’s the champ version then good luck with that.

WvW is like a rowdy bar right now. The hackers are running the show and ruining it for everyone else. When people say “roamer” I think “hacker” since I run into so many when I’m roaming. They are everywhere. Guy ran right thru a 20 man zerg solo….never slowed, and his health bar hardly wiggled.

Those are called “warriors”, not “hackers”.

those are called thieves not warriors or hackers.

: i’m an elitist even though i pretend i’m not, if only people knew how to dodge and stop sucking so kittening much!
: i have put more time and money into my ranger than i should have.
: i actually like the engineers multi tool pack
: i take a engineer into pvp and nuke people down then proceed to slam them with conditions if their on a point. fun but dirty.
: while in a WBT i secretly hate everybody who has a higher AP value than me.
: i dance and laugh on the corpses of thieves because they play a class with infinite escapes and still die.

This makes me so glad I’m leveling my Elementalist right now. Flame Axe and Fiery Greatsword will make short work of Mordremoth.

fiery greatsword makes short work of everything.

It won’t make short work of the Deep Sea Dragon. That thing will probably just turn into steam which is even harder to hit. Luckily we have the Lightning Hammer!

only reason it wouldn’t work on him is if he stayed underwater, making FGS rush impossible. give me a wall, and i’ll give you a dead dragon.

you mean a dead everything.

one word (eviscerate ) ^

One word “dodge”.

well i said warrior has veiscerate wich is beeing used frequently, and even if it misses , adrenaline should be spent but it is not, then there still are killshots, 100 b, and few other stuff.

That is my biggest prob with war. They don’t get penalised for missing unlike every other class. It is extremely unfair.

someone mains a thief and doesn’t realize his 1 spam trying to get a backstab from stealth is the exact same, except you can’t see it coming.

1(block), 1(block), 1(block), 1(block), 1(6340)
explain hows that’s anything but worse than a warriors 300 range eviscerate, oh wait warriors have to wait 8 seconds, and its gone if its blocked.

Mayama.1854:

Run water ele’s in your zerg, we have two water-heal ele’s in our guild zerg and conditions are basicaly none existant.

A good zerg composition is key to victory and you can easily take out a zerg full of selfish 1v1 spec’s twice the size if your team comp is good.

so your strategy to beating someone with perplexity runes is to run a zerg against them?
i don’t see how those runes could possibly be broken.

if you want those runes fixed then lobby to introduce them into pvp, thats were anet makes their decisions to make or break a class.

im guessing you’re talking about that veteran mark 1 golem that gave permanent and constantly reapplying retal and protection to himself and things around him.

but those wolves are annoying to, but luckily theres no champ version as of now.

the reason it hasn’t been changed is because for a warrior to go full mobility he has to use a GS ( a bad pvp weapon) and a sword/warhorn (almost as bad) bull’s rush as 1 utility traits set up for shorter CD on signets, break movement conditions on movement skills and maybe the warhorn trait, which they have to give up equally as good ones to get that.

idk about you but iv’e never lost to mobility warriors 1v1 in a fight, thats because their high damage skills can just be backstepped out of.

the elementalists has 4 weapon sets in 1 yes its true even still their mobility isnt as good but they can have both damage and some mobility, did RTL need that big of nerf? no but its not changing.

now thieves i’d explain about them but then i’d have a bunch of baddies who only play thief come on here and yell at me about how its perfectly balanced on their class because their so weak.
even though eles have lower hp and armor.

i suspect that syfy is gonna rip this off and make it a crappy movie set in the mid west.

once we go to fight jormag the chickens are gonna turn into polar bears and it’ll be called a polar vortex

Wow…it’s the exact same giant.
How…disappointing.

Lilith Ajit.6173:

A few questions: which bow is underneath the skin (like, is it a particular dungeon bow for the stats or another bow that might have some particle effects?

Other question, which skin/weapon were you using before you way pointed and switched? Was it a legendary?

Arc is underneath the skin of the bow.
and the only other weapon i had before it was my karka GS.

i was just running around has just killed some champ had just wp’ed and switched to my bow to see this glowing thing on it.
i have no idea what this thing is, does anybody have any idea what it is?
i switched it and that glowing light just sat there until i switched back then it would show up again.
i finally unequipped it for something else and it just stayed there.

it took you only 10 mins to a kill a thief? wow he sucks.

Dagraan.2854:

bla bla bla… superior numbers.

Back to that argument? We have already posted the answer…

Righteous.4307:

If you would like to test your mettle against us in good natured, respectful open-field combat we would sure enjoy it. It’s what we’ve been asking for.

Equal numbers, even fight.

good natured? respectful? from [MU]? the hell…? you run around and abuse your already superiors t1 numbers to the max that it can go.
besides not to mention large scale PvP is a waste of time, the game already has a lobby for PvP you don’t need to bug every single WvWer for something already in game.

Jereme.1840:

Naz, Maybe you should quit, give the rest of your server a chance to play. Bunkering in towers and queuing the BL (due to siege capping) just isn’t fair to the rest of IoJ.

at most mend has 30 people on reset night, but usually we have between 20 and 25, theres no way in hell 25 people will queue a map, not to mention we will barely throw more than 5 pieces of siege.
unlike most of the bad players who don’t understand strategy we just know how to use the siege we have, but all the siege in the world won’t work against superior numbers.

because whenever something brings life back into Orr by some offshot event that is completely ignored by everybody, some people cry foul, and those interesting activities get nerfed by ANET. and orr dies once again no help for skillpoints, no help for events, and no help for temples

Fixed that for accuracy.

You’re welcome.

you were horribly off target i put you back on the right track

it wouldn’t be GvGvG it would be PvPvP, because all GvG is, is larger scale pvp battles by like 3 to 7 more people.
how about leave WvWvW alone and just increase the pvp lobby size, and make multi server lobbies.

apparently you haven’t heard of the mariners horn, or actually heard it to begin with.
the bell wishes it was as annoying as that.

being rewarded for playing wvw isnt wrong, but having these leagues was a horrible idea, that should never be repeated.
honestly they should of just gave us a mini and a finisher, and said that from the start, but i guess anet needed money so they suckered a bunch of idiots into transfering into t1 servers last minute.

Xsorus.2507:

Nuzt.7894:

Not at all, I think your SBI the server who had to double team with SoR to ride much larger coat tails than either of these fine two servers.

Karma …. well you know the rest

Double team with SoR?

you’re implying SoR would actually need help with Silver League people..

you’re impying that SBI belongs in silver leagues, same with YB, and FA. with all the people SBI has i doubt that YB and EB is completely overwhelming you. it looks like to me that SBI is purposely trying to tank last minute to stay in silver leagues and not face servers with equal numbers.

fight them near a tower or keep, then if you die just mist form back inside.
its only fair since they get to abuse a broken mechanic.

or fight near a pool of water, a thief trying to fight an ele in water is like a rat trying to fight a lion.

didn’t you know scarlet was the reason abbadon fell, not some silly human gods.

so i crashed at the end of the anomaly boss fight and had to relog to come back in, but i couldn’t so now im just standing on the portal, unable to rejoin what are we supposed to do, and the rest of the party are saying they can’t progress.

style.6173:

No one would WvW with any type of good gear if that was the case. Not a good idea as it would just make the game lame.

and lol @dagraan. Insta gibbed? If any class is insta gibbing you, you need a new spec. Even the strongest 1 shot skill in the game, kill shot, shouldn’t be able to insta gib you.

1 kill shot isn’t the strongest 1 shot skill in the game it is just easily able to hit you in the middle of a zerg.
a thieves backstab is, not to mention 2 to 3 thieves will insta down anybody and everybody, and get away with all your kitten scot free.
you should leave that blob and run on your own for a little while and tell me if those group of roaming thieves isn’t a problem and some random killshot warrior is.
but since im talking to a zergling######## the only teamwork you know of is stack, spam 1, and build this.

Chris.3290:

I don’t see swiftness being that much of a problem, especially while in combat.

The biggest change needs to be in rally mechanics.

apparently this guy has never ran into hackers, or a thief. or gotten out the middle of his zerg blob. or ran anything other than a warrior or guardian bunker build.

a thief that says its easy in wvw… nothing new here.

LordByron.8369:

easy answer?

What would make you do a Chain’s PreEvents?
More dragonite ore….

that is the last thing we need, more crap to right click and destroy that we can’t sell.
if anything that will get less people to do the pre events.

I dislike rally and the whole idea of downed state in pvp.

Basically it just gives whoever already outnumbers more of an advantage. If you’re fighting 1 on 3 and down one, without an invuln you are not getting that kill which you VERY MUCH SO DESERVE AND EARNED.

gw2 logic.

Food i don’t mind because it gives me at least something to spend money on and all the foods add alittle bit of diversity to a fight. Although there really only are 3-4 popular ones

you shouldn’t be winning a 1 v 3 in the first place, theres nothing wrong here.
the downed state is there because of insta gib classes, if there was no down state they would would be god like instead of just demi god like.

You have zero clue about the game. Amazing that in this bunker meta someone thinks an instagib build is a demi god…

you should know exactly what class im talking about, maybe if you stepped out of pvp you’d know it.

oh lets just ban thieves while where at it so people can have a pre warning before they get insta gibbed. and stop doing wvw.
not counting the hackers anet just ignores.

a completely stacked server with 5x as many people as the other 2 servers saying wvw is really fun.
nothing surprising there, i’d like to see you keep your attitude when your constantly matched up to servers with more than double your numbers on all the time.

FA is called fort stackwood for a reason
