Guild Wars 2

Lord Kuru.3685:

Anyone know if the nerf is only to Deadeye? Do Stugar and Chomper drop money still?
If so, time to discover how to farm them!

By the way, is there anyone even doing the Gauntlet now that you have to go though all that work just to reopen it?

no, the whole event has been gutted of rewards.

That’s amazing. I’d love to hear what the point of queen’s gauntlet is now from anet’s own mouth, honestly. I don’t understand what I am supposed to do now. Just do it once a day? Why are queen’s tickets 20s still then? That doesn’t really make sense. It went from a way to make money to a way to waste it with absolutely no point? Kind of extreme, isn’t it?

Liz.5921:

Have you not tried the new Living Story events yet? I just made ~20g in 3 hours.

How would I not have “tried it” if I have access to the gauntlet? /logic

Just curious, there is NO WAY to make money anymore, right?

Buy a new gfx card or tone down your settings! THIS IS AMAZING. love you anet!

Introduce /twerk to the gem store. You are welcome.

Honestly, I am so sick and tired of groups constantly quitting the first fractal because it’s not swamp. It is so aggravating…JUST PLAY THE GAME! If the whole groups vote to leave a fractal completely, it should be a 15 minute penalty on reentering. I want to do the content. I am a skilled player, why am I punished for the masses who don’t have the confidence, skill or inkling to learn and practice in fractals such as the dredge one?

gw2lfg.com = insta group for any fractal basically.

I’ve been rolling a venom support dungeon build (SB/DP) for about a week now, with about 30 dungeon runs I have to say…why is the radius so low? It is literally maybe 2 feet for the application to take effect. Is this in the process of being reviewed or am i SoL? If I am SoL, what other options are there for thief support builds in dungeons?

If it was better before, why break it? I dont understand.

Why can’t i just TOGGLE “load all players” ?

In beta and when the game first came out, this never happened…and its really annoying to drop because the enemy is completely invisible, until they are up in your face….is this a hardware problem or what? Its really annoying.

So, I decided F it ill go for a legendary. Naturally I look up youtube videos that explain best ways to get karma…most of these vids are in CS great. There’s an event called Plinx. Awesome. Welll….been trying to do this and have barely seen more than 4 people at a time. Seriously. Even the tunnel is empty. Anyone got any tips for the solo karma farmer, because 90% of the time I am alone and its pretty rough and slow going.

Wrinn.1802:

Yup, you just need a descent group and if they played any Tower Defense game, it’s a snap. Just did it myself on the 2nd try.

ditto, got both achievs with ease 2nd try.

Leo Paul.1659:

My problem is that for the amount of time we spend on the mini game, it doesn’t reward us with anything substantial. I feel like my time could be better spent somewhere else.. Is there any good reward if we finish all 10 waves of toypocalypse?

fun, achievs, and personalized gifts im pretty sure.

build walls and snowmen to protect the siege

I found it really fun…in my 2nd attempt we strategized, built walls, with catapults behind and snowmen as the front line…got both achievs with ease. very fun.

I may have got lucky but got both toypoc achievs in one run…built a lot of walls and stuff.

Sorry, anet has decided to keep the game more and more anti-social. Do stuff alone. By design.

Sorry I couldn’t find the answer to this question. I will be moving to S Korea for work, and am currently an American playing an American version of GW2. Will I be able to still log in and play form S Korea?

what’s a toon? Just because you played disneys toon town doesn’t mean that CHARACTERS in other games are “toons.”

GW2 needs a feature that lets you plug in what dungeons you wish to run, whether story or exp, and which paths you are seeking to do. This list should be able to be accessed by anyone on the server (or subsequent overflows) and invites sent. I am not asking for a WoW autopilot system, I am just asking for a system where I can say I am LFG COE EXP PATH 1 and still go outside lions arch instead of spamming map chat.

Drawbacks? Possibly very few people will use it. But this will only be the case if it is poorly implemented. A good dungeon finder tool can be used by everyone.

RakaNishoo.6071:

I haven’t found any encounter in PVE in this game that would REQUIRE VOIP.

If you pay attention to what is going on you can minimize the amount of communication needed to radar PINGS/DRAWING and chat. And even that only when you do the encounter for the first time.

Keep in mind that not everybody can use voice communication. Giving it in game might result in parties not wantint to take such ppl. That would be bad.

Everyone can turn output on…not everyone needs an input.

My point is. Pugging is pretty much impossible.

corvo.8341:

Plenty of third party software for VoiP out there, especially if you’re in a guild..

Yeah, well when not in a guild it would be nice kitten

Anet I love that your encounters require communication and team work, but not providing your players with the means to have these communications is very lazy.

Jabberwock.9014:

Ah ok, I guess I was a bit hasty in my judgement. I was under the impression you had to start from level 1 every time. Is a difficulty permanently unlocked upon reaching it? And do you get a superboss every other run no matter what?

Still could end up a ridiculous grind, but I’ll reserve judgement for at least the time being.

It’s people like you spreading false information that hurts everyone.

Wrong. Welcome to endgame.

My guildies and I did the asura jumping puzzle one with the funny end bosses The baron and snuggles, mr. mew, etc. We did the swamp one (holy cripes!), and the one where you gotta keep the fires lit or you freeze to death.

overall…we love it!
We are taking a break and looking forward to hitting d2 in a bit!

<3 anet, thanks for the fun content!

I don’t like the sound of any of that.

So are guilds using pick ups until final boss then kicking them to invite their friends to get the 60 tokens at the end? :/

Was on final part of CoE exp, one and a half hours in, and I was running back after a death…and got kicked. Really. I wasn’t afk, I was running. It’s a long run…

I have mained a thief since launch…and have around 400 hours played (when I do /age). I do spvp (rank 21) and pve (have at least 1 dungeon set and all exotics), only 81% world completion (working on it). I am working on an exotic magic find set now, and also a defense set (pwr/tough/vit). I feel as though this game is one of the best I’ve ever played…when I come to the forums I see people whining about the new patch. I don’t see the problem. OMG A NEW RING WILL BE ADDED WITH +2 MORE STATS THAN AN EXOTIC! Big whoop! If this game was about stats I’d be like…ok…but as someone who (with guildies) has ran a few exps as a joke wearing nothing but blues and did FINE, why does gear even matter?

It seems to me ANET are the only ones that make it not matter. player skill matters. Anyway, I look forward to the new gear because I find this game fun. I blew 180 dungeon tokens accidentally on the wrong helm and I wasn’t upset because…dundundun…IT WAS SO FUN I WOULDN’T MIND DOING IT AGAIN.

Some of you guys need to just relax and have fun. Journey. Not destination.

I just tackled Teq at level 80 and his chest dropped level 80 stuff… I know not all lower level dynamic events do this though. How do I know which ones do?

Ok, so if I run around the lvl 80 zone in orr, hit DR, I can go to the 80 place up in shiverpeaks and be ok?

Is it based on enemy type? Is it based on enemies killed in a certain time frame? When does it reset? Is it gradual decline or is it more like I reach a threshold and then am barred from loot for a set time period? What are the details or where can I find them? I spent a bunch of gold on magic find gear and now I am kind of sad. How exactly does loot capping work?

Irishbrewed.6537:

What class were you playing?
What’s your spec?

This is info that would help the devs who view these post better assess the situation. Honestly it does help to supply more info.

That’s not necessary, I was just curious if this was intended. I don’t want anyone nerfed, I am sure there is a way to counter such players.

uMad.5719:

If this is happening to often for your liking maybe you should invest in more armor/toughness. On all the pvp alts I’ve rolled I havent had problems with any other classes. Then again I’ve played/researched the other classes so I’m aware of what they are doing.

But I suppose calling for nerfs is easier then reevaluating your approach.

Who was calling for nerfs? I was just asking a question.

I actually have no problem with heartseeker as it is only effective when youre hp is already low…but the backstab insta kill is a bit nuts.

Instant kills? Is this the way it is supposed to be?

I disagree with every single thing the OP said.

Anet should at least give us the option of seeing ourselves, our team, and our opponents in the red/blue shading…

I understand the concept behind tokens and the mystic forge in relation to spvp…but how do you collect gear in the “cultural” sections of your spvp locker?

Whenever I enter the mists, my trait allocations are still there but the actual customization roman numeral traits ALWAYS reset to blank. It’s pretty annoying. This has been going on since launch for me.

dem bandits be hording all mah chocolates.

Your notes say you fixed tourney chests. Just got to 2nd round in tourney and lost, and no chest. Why you trollin?

I have heard conflicting voices on this and am not going to try to form a team if they aren’t working. Queuing for a tourney solo is always a loss for me, so any update would be faaaaaaaaaantastic.

If it’s not canonical it shouldn’t be said, I haven’t heard pronounced like that in game ever.

I definitely second this statement.
