Turrets and Grenades

It is not a matter of reflection. The shield is not reflecting the grenades (btw… are grenades reflectables? the are not missiles) they just not land/explodes. I’m not sure, but i think that the grenades are not “leaving the hand on the engi” xD

I’ve noticed that, when you are throwing granades against an Engi and it summon a Turret, you are unable to land any grenades until the “blue-ish shield” vanish.

Is this intended? I can see my Engi trying to throw grenade against the Engi near the turrent, inside the blue shield, but nothing explodes.

Glorious Armor stat selection

Why? That Track is not repeatable. Done and gone.
There is no doubt that Glorious Armor should give Sinister and Nomad stats

If you want to chance your stats on the armor piece you got from the glorious Box to sinister, you can do so via the mystic forge recipe. That requires you to craft an exotic sinister insignia and the recipe for that has to be purchased with bandit crests.

Glorios Armor Box is Exotic, not Ascended. You can’t change stats on them via Mystic Forge! You can only select one combo stat when binding it for the first time.

Currently we can select one of this stats from the Glorious Armor:

- Assassin
- Berserker
- Carrion
- Clerics
- Dire
- Knight
- Magi
- Rabid
- Rampager
- Shaman
- Soldier
- Valkyrie

considered the last changes, it would be nice to be able to select a few more stat combination from this exotic armor box that is considered to be “a pve prize for pvp players”

at least Sinister would be nice.

I suggest to play warrior as your second choice.
Ranger is a good place to start and explore the world, it cover nicely both melee and ranged play.

This can lower the price of hard to get items, but hardly manipulable. This items already drops, and there is always a supply on the tp. The price of lodestone is not manipulated, demand is higher then supply.

All extreme rare/not more obtainable items will still be manipulated in the market.
Just look at their graphs online. One day the price is X with 1000 supply, the day after the price is 20X with 10 supply. If you remove supply of items from the game, greedy people will manipulate it.

It is easy to counter from the developers that have all the data, but they don’t raise a finger. Very hard to understand, it seems that they don’t care.

Open your eyes.

Just do not buy them, make another skin.
Do not continue to fill the purses of these kittenty greedy people.

Putting a computer together..

As for how to go about it I started by deciding on the graphics card and then picked everything else to match that. Admittedly partially because it was the graphics card that gave me trouble with the old machine but it seems a good way to go for a gaming rig.

It is better to start with the CPU, since it is easier to upgrade the GPU but to upgrade the CPU you may need to upgrade the MB.

I’ve been plaing Gw on and off since 07, never being able to experience it fully because of low grade computer. I want to finally put my own PC together specifically for GW2/Gaming. What parts do you guys recommend? i wouldn’t want to waste more then $1,000 total. Is it possible?

go to http://pcpartpicker.com to find where to buy cheaper
no need for a i7 only for gaming, go with an i5

CPU: Intel Core i5-4690K $200
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO (or Zalman/Corsair/other you like) in the range of $40
SSD: Samsung 850 EVO 250GB $110
HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200rmp $80
GPU: nVidia GTX 960 $200
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 2×4GB LP $70
MB: AsRock Z97 Anniversary $80 (or any MSI/Gigabyte Z97 Board you like)
PS: Corsair CX 600W $50
Case: Corsair HAF 912 $50
DVD: samsung 15$

total: ~$900
you can go with a gtx 970 $300 instead of gtx960 (total now $1000)
but maybe you will better invest this $100 in gaming mouse/keyboard or a new monitor

Gold Transfer Changes

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Deneb.2697

Deneb.2697

in my small way , the adoption of a limit to the amount of currency transferable over a period was one of the first things that I introduced in my little game . Very curious that a company that pays its programmers , have come to the same conclusion just now , and only after many players have been scammed or hacked .

Rising Dusk — another question I’ll need to ask. But when accounts are proven to have been hacked, the account is restored (rolled back) so would that not accomplish the same thing that you’re proposing? And wouldn’t doing what you propose make restorations a moot factor?

Months ago a friend of mine was hacked. He lost everything. his work requires him to move from one site to another , but he can play with a laptop by the hotels . His account was not rolled back because " he logged from too many locations ". He now play occasionally and has almost abandoned the game.

After six months, I’ve almost given up hope of being able to see this skill working as promised .

When can we finally see this value fixed?
We were promised a skill that would do more damage of a dragon ’s tooth , however we still have a bugged skill that does less damage than our autoattack.

FGS Fiery Rush

in Profession Balance

Posted by: Deneb.2697

Deneb.2697

while fixing this, can we please also get some nice boost to FGS autoattacck?

I’m the only one that see something wrong with an Elite skill (that should provide a nice power boost, like Lich Form) that have an autoattacck worse than Fire-Staff autoattack? Aside from the little mobility increase with ONLY 3 minutes CD… Lol.

Let us be honest, why should I use it? Since patch I’ve never used it.

Pros:
- ? fiery whirl away ? ? is this really usefull ?

Cons:
- Limited number of charges/uses.
- Need to slot a trait… just to increase the charges.
- Locked out of Elementalist attunement switch.
- Worse autoattack than Fire-Staff
- Worse dps than any Weapon Set.
- Bugged Skills
- If you use a skill when the timer is ending, the weapon will disappear and it will lock your character doing the skill animation, and will do no damage.

Please, fix it.

What I’d like to see. but I’m sure that will never happen.
Remove the FGS, and add a new Elite skill that hold the nature of elementalist:

Skill name: Elemental Greatsword.
Duration: 20 sec
Charges: NO CHARGES.
What it is this thing?
A bundled Greatsword weapon that can change element based on attunement: Fire, Air, Water, Earth (what an innovation! a weapon that can change skills when changing the elementalist attunement…. oh… wait… all elementalist weapons already do it… must be really hard to implement).

Will we ever get the promised Fiery Rush Leap damage boost?

Actually tooltip and damage done do not get along with one another.

Dragoon Tooth tooltip: 1391 damage
hit for: 1300-1400 damage
crit for 2300-2500 damage

Fiery Rush: 2131 damage
hit for: 800-900 damage
crit for: 1600-1700 damage

I can also provide screenshots of this VERY HARD to do tests.

Dungeon Rewards might be a little too good.

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Deneb.2697

Deneb.2697

To be honest, all Dungeon gold rewards should be better scaled. Some path are harder and longer then other… and still reward with only 1 gold. Many path should reward with 2-3 gold. Also AC P2, that is easier than it seems once you know what to do, should rewards 2 gold.

Have you ever tought why some dungeons path are deserted? The rewards are so small for the time required to complete.

Churning Earth Suggestion

in Elementalist

Posted by: Deneb.2697

Deneb.2697

I don’t think it should hit through blinds and aegis. Why should it have that kind of advantage over other skills?

On the other hand, I think it should have different benefits to the user, like Stability and Protection while channeling it.

because is a massivee single hit aoe damage. Why a big rock summoned should miss if the ele is blind? the ele is not targetting anyone, is just an aoe damage. Imho, all aoe untargetted skill should hit even if blind.

if I dig a pit under your position, and then i become blind while “channelling”. Will you fall in the grave or after blinding me ….you also learned how to levitate?

maybe hitting through aegis might seem op… but CE is really really really […] really telegraphated skill that should have some sort of advantage. Let aegis block, but in compensation reduce channeling time or make it easier to land.

Churning Earth Suggestion

To make it less useless it would be enough to:
- add protection when channeling
- always hit when blind
- hit through Aegis

Bag full of ideas

in Elementalist

Posted by: Deneb.2697

Deneb.2697

STAFF – WATER
Water Blast, if no allies are healed, the spell do 100% more damages
Ice Spike, the spell is now a Combo Finisher : Blast
STAFF – AIR
Gust, the spell knockback 400 units away all foes around 240 units of the caster

these would be enough
burning meteor shower make sense, but it is not essential.

I’ll add that:
Teleport: stun/interrupt all players in teleport landing location
stun will be really nice, but blind would be good too

I’ve read that:

- The button to instantly refund all traits, previously seen only in structured PvP areas, has become game-wide.
- Refunding traits is now free across the game: refund your traits any time you’re not in combat or in a competitive PvP match!

But some friends told me that the developers said they had changed their minds, and that for the time being will remain a feature available only in PvP.

Will we see that miraculous button in PvE on 15th April?

Because nobody comes on the forum to say thank you, just like nobody ever contacts customer service to tell them they’re doing a good job, I mean, did you ever contact your internet provider to tell him “DUDE, I didn’t DC in 6 kittening months, you’re doing a great job, keep it up!!!” or is it usually something in the lines of " The internet keeps disconnecting every now and then, why is it doing this, what the kitten am I paying you for???"

1H Ascended vs 2H Ascended...

Deneb.2697

From my point of view it’s all really simple ..

2H (GS, etc.) : 5 skills
1H (Dagger, etc.) : 2 or 3 skills
Off-hand: 2 skills

To keep it simple…
Two-hand should cost FIVE,
One-hand should cost THREE regardless,
Off-hand should cost TWO.

maybe they just enjoy making fun of us
