it doesnt rly matter if have points in BM or not its about how the pet acts and theres soemthing weird after the last patch
Unless you have an official source, this is nothing more than hearsay.
:edit:
Since asking how many points people have had 2 people have responded.
Both are at least 20 points deep and neither have problems getting their pets to tank.
I’m not surprised.
I have 10 in BM and have no issues getting my bear to tank.
Since you are going down the path you are going I also have 30% bigger pet crits and pets heal on crit.
My ranger is level 80, I have run pve open world and explorer dungeons since the patch… my polarbear and my adoctus however you spell it tank fine just as they always have. There are few mobs that refuse to be tanked due to AI but for everything else they are working as they always did.
Lots of things effect weather you or the pet gets aggro.
But straight to your question the more points in BM the stronger your pet and that can effect aggro. Also other traits like 30% bigger crits could have an effect. DPS is not the sole sorce of aggro in this game, but it is one of the sources. Others things such as first hit, closest physically etc all play a part as well as the mob type.
Looks like it created “buy orders” instead of actually buying them…weird. But thanks for pointing out that it might had done that…I had like 36 gold sitting in there in supposed buy orders that I never placed. Now my character is doing the happy dance!
Apparently it had been giving me buy orders every now and then instead of actual stuff for a long time and I never noticed.
You now spend 2x more for gems, but gems will acquire you 2x more gold. That said, there should be a lot of players buying gems and driving the price back down. It seems to not be the case.
That is because gold farmers are selling it 5:1 cheaper. Even if you wanted gems it would be cheeper to buy bad gold and trade it for gems than to buy actual gems. If Anet wants this store to work and gold farmers to go way they can’t leave the ratio of legit gold and bad gold at a price difference of 5:1 Too many people will not pay 5x as much just to get it from Anet
Well it happened last night alittle after midnight est and of the 5 types of items I wanted to buy I got 3 of them however the other 2 / ori ingots/ and ectos I did not receive. They all said success when purchased and took money. But only the other items were in my take items screen. I have waited til morning to make sure the AH was not just lagging with my items.
The AH is instantly giving you some of what you buy and not givinig you other things it says you successfully bought. In both cases it does successfully take your money.
About 7G of my itmes are currently MIA
I thought you fixed this issue?
T3 medium norn armor is Eirs armor you know the hero from our land…if you think thats not how a norn should look you probably don’t know what a norn should look like. IE did you watch all trailers and go wow they really dressed Eir wrong thats not how a norn looks…
“There is VERY little difference between exotic gear and green gear at level 80”
There is 13% between green and yellow and 13% between yellow and orange…so that is ton of difference between green and orange…
And for the record you were supposed to craft farm forge some oranges then hit the dungeons for special skins…the fact you can run them in yellows shows they are far too easy to have the special skins you are supposed to want after getting blah oranges.
A level 80 wearing level 70 gear will be weaker than a level 70 wearing level 70 gear this is because it downlevels your gear a % based on your level not your gears level. So if you are very undergeared for your level you will be very weak when downleveled. If you are an 80 in all orange you will be super strong when downleveled as orange eq doesn’t exist at low levels.
Exploits are here to stay due to anet backing down from bans 2 times in arrow. There is nothing that ever going to get them to stop trying to exploit everything they can now
I don’t demand anyone do anything, but if you aren’t up to running x and y becuase you need y and they need x and just want them to help you while you turn up your nose at them … I have no spot for you in any game guild or group.
I agree OP. And it doesn’t matter what stats you want or if they are really suitable or not, what matters is that your friends all have different goals in the game. It’s really a very bad design to split the community in this way, 1 community becomes 8 different sub groups. And Fluffycalico the type of guild that demands that kind of sacrifice for the good of the guild is the worse kind of guild in the game and thankfully very few of them exist. The best guilds are ones where people do things together because hey everyone wanted to do that thing anyway and doing things with friends is fun. Save self sacrifice for real life.
Wrong any guildie who is me me me me screw you me me me is not a guildie and deserves to be sitting alone in LA spamming LFG If you won’t help others then don’t cry when they won’t help you. And all the dungeons are fun there is no reason to not run all of them. I have had all my gear for a long time. I still run the dungeons because the groups and dungeons are fun. If you don’t want to help the friends in your guild then why are you there? To mouch their guild buffs?
Honestly these items are probably still underpriced considering what goes into them. There’s a serious liquidity constraint at the very tip of the market holding prices down, and expect to see legendary precursors rise even more as the economy evens out.
I expect to see them fall like a rock once its realised that about 1/10000 will ever make one…Yes they are rare…but someone who will actually end up using it is ever more rare.
The base is 1G on the AH won’t be hard for him to fix his mistake can probably salvage the one he changed for 2 ecto. So loss of 50s and lesson learned
Then report them and then it will be one less person doing this. I will add I have not ever seen this happen or talked to anyone in game that this has happened to…not 1
If your guild/group won’t just say ok so we need to do x,y,z to get everyone what they need and then go do x,y,z then your group or guild is already broken up. Anyone who says I only need to run X so I will only run X period deserves a guild/kick
I agree bring something to the table. If you have 0cc 0buff and 0 aoe heal there is something wrong. You don’t need all 3 of these things but if you don’t have a single one of any of them that is bad.
Standing people back up…general rule in my groups if you can stand them back up without risking you dieing then do so. If you are likely to die doing it leave them on the ground, as 2 people dead is not an improvement.
With all the skill points running around there is no reason to not have skill x unlocked. Even if you want a legendary there are still plenty of skill points to unlock every skill for your class and still have enough for both a legendary and a mystic.
First rule of dungeons is dead or running back=0 dps.
Take the amount of time a glass cannon build spends doing these things and realise that if you add in toughness/health and utility that your overall dps throughout the fight will be higher!
It’s really a learning experience, and the more you do it the easier it gets.
Statements like this make me so mad. An Elementalist with toughness on each piece of armor, and 30 points in Earth Magic, still dies from most things in 1 frikkin hit. I can dodge 9 out of 10 things, but unless I make it a perfect 10, I’ll die at least 5 times per boss encounter.
Toughness should be worth something, but at the moment, all it does is making you die instantly instead of dying instantly.
At least place a few waypoints closer to the fights for cat’s (not kitten) sake.
I’m so tired of hearing how hard these dungeons are as me and my friend clear all 3 wings night after night on multiple dungeons. I guess we must be playing a different game then the rest of you who keep complaining.
I’ll bet you’re playing warrior. Try Project Alpha as an Elementalist. No matter your gear, unless you dodge everything perfectly, you’ll die. And by perfectly I mean 10 our 10, not 99 out of 100.
Not true he has 0 attacks that will 1 shot me. That means if I dodge 9 out of 10 I will be alive the whole fight until he dies. Also some of his circles have a hole in the middle that you don’t have to dodge…pay attention and learn which ones to dodge, which ones to step out of and which ones to just go oh cool I am in the center. by the way I am on a ranger.
You can farm up 3 G in 3hrs no problem at 80. This is enough to get full yellows of everything. If you can’t be bothered to do this please don’t complain if your group does bad. Full yellows will due til you get better gear.
None of the dungeons at this point and time are hard.
Arah is long, CM has so much ranged stuff ugh, TA flowers suck, CoE the laser trap requires timing, but other than that everything is pretty easy.
With frost bow ele you can kill the mobs way before the event ends and wait around for it to finish…however have done this even with 0 ele and not had issue either just requires more effort.
If you don’t have someone in heavy armor with the build for mitigation and self-healing (a TANK), you will die.
Will 2 rangers 2 eles and a mesmer meet your test cause it was a very fast easy run. By the way what are you taking in AC? lol
Collous path, spider? nah just spread out and kill a bear is more than tank enough.
The wire boss? heck no keep everyone at max range
the burrow? can’t tank a burrow so just kill it
the end boss? nah again stay the heck away from it
Nothing at all to tank in path, and if you really need one to feel good on trash a bear or rock ele will do the job just fine.
What people don’t know is that the legendaries ARE more powerful that the other exotics of their level. They’re level 81 exotics! You get that tiny tiny tiny little boost. like 15 damage boost. It’s kinda funny.
Normal Exotic level 80 Greatsword:
Weapon Strength: 995 – 1100
+179 Power
+128 Toughness
+128 Vitality
negative we have known since the day gwdb made that mispost that those stats were wrong. Why they haven’t bothered to correct their error I don’t know. Legenday weapons have the same stats as orange. Orange is max level stats. Red is just a pretty casing to go on it.
Yes let what we have now be normal and give us a hard mode or better yet call it Kitten mode, just make sure Kitten mode reward has skins that can be gotten no other way
Still walking into every dungeon with my first 4 friends that want to go and still say they all rate between easy and medium except arah with is more long than anything else.
