Guild Wars 2

If you refuse to run the dungeon I’m sure you can see the story on youtube once it’s been implemented.

I recently got a 3D television and have hooked my computer up to it. When I try to enable stereoscopic rendering for 3D it is simply grayed out. I have the resolution set to 1900 × 1080. Also I do have a graphics card capable of 3D as well as 3D HDMI cables. Anyone able to help me out?

With that horrible excuse for an Elder Dragon boss fight I’m not surprised. I know they said endgame wasn’t finished when it released but to have Zhaitan so messed up is inexcusable. It’s like if I played the first God of War and I’m all stoked to fight Ares only to find out he’s bugged and just stands there. Should’ve released Arah on April Fools because it’s a joke.

I have over 1300 Healing power on my Guardian. Staff is awesome for support lots of heals and then I can switch to my Greatsword for dmg plus heals on my symbol. It helps alot but if I don’t switch to my Greatsword during the fight I only get silver at best for events.

I’m a great addition to my group with lots of regens to soak up small bits of damage but I get no credit for doing so. I like that I have to fight as well as support but support spells need to add to your participation as it is now it encourages people to just do glass cannon builds.

My biggest gripe with dungeons are the parts where you have to dodge things in the environment or even mini jumping puzzles. EG the boulders in CoF or the lasers in CoE. I know they aren’t the caliber of the jumping puzzles and vistas but I go to a dungeon the fights and not to jump over stuff.

It wouldn’t be so bad if the movement controls were not typical of an MMO but they are. It’s like they want me to play a mediocre mario. The one thing that makes me quit doing something in a game is if it has bad controls. The movement is not fluid like any other platformer so please ANet stop trying to make me use your medicocre movement controls for platforming.

It just annoys me so much that the hardest parts of the dungeons are the parts where you fight nothing at all.

What happened to ANet being against RNG? I’ve been seeing more RNG in this game than even WoW. Why couldn’t they just make tokens so we can farm and choose which weapons/armor skins we want? I hate doing work and knowing I’m more than likely to walk away with crap loot even in 100%+ magic find gear. It’s only fun for so long before it’s just lame which doesn’t take too long to hit.

The Fire Islands were a chain of islands introduced in Nightfall I believe. I’m saying maybe future content. It’s all speculation though.

Maybe a fire island chain set? I remember seeing a facebook album before the game came out and it was an over the shoulder of some dev working on the fire island chains. Do want it though, my friend made a character named The Voodoo Shaman just so he could wear this set on his necromancer. He’s gonna be kitten to find he can’t get it.

Staff elementalist for sure when properly utilizing cross profession combos.

I was a bit disappointed with this. I can see some very imaginative and fun positions for all the different, Asura climbing up into a big chair. A large Norn trying hard to not fall off a small stool.

It really is a small thing. You couldn’t do this in TOR but they also had no day or night cycle and horrible armor customization. I don’t RP but for all the small details in the game this seems like a big oversight.

Luckily the game has no sub so if they ever add it in you can come back.

I got this message when clearing grubs in my path as I walked to the next camp. Apparently grubs don’t offer any loot at all. Ever. Anymore.
Why would they break grubs? When all they had to do was put in different spawning grubs for events, grubs that drop no loot, or at least no venoms.

I thought ANet wanted everything to be fun in this game. So why do they think not getting a reward after a hard dungeon is fun? More importantly why are they making decisions?

Attractive Woman (some human girl), Magic Mushroom (Sylvari Mesmer with a mushroom head), Snew Snew (Norn Woman), Angry Muslim (human engineer with a beard) and A Black Guy (A norn thief).

I remember these because they all made me lol in real life.

I’m all for a challenge. In fact the first time I did AC it was great, I had a blast. It is weird that trash is harder than bosses but whatever, anyway it really is clear that some bosses are not balanced. I went to do CoF on my 80 Guardian, I roll with a Greatsword and Staff. I use the GS for damage and bursting down targets and when it gets sticky I roll back and switch to the staff. The number 4 skill is great for support especially since I’m specced to get almost a full health bar everytime I use it.

So we start and this is on Story Mode mind you. All but 2 are 80 in the group and the others are 74+, we were able to get through the trash fairly easy, especially compared to the runs I had in AC. We get to the first boss by heading west. It’s the Greatsword boss that whirlwinds across the room every 3 seconds killing you if you get hit. Anyway as you can tell we couldn’t even knock 10% off his bar before wiping every time.

I switched skills went all range, tried to immobilize and any other cc I could muster, and so did the rest of my group. Still no progress he just spammed the room wide whirlwind and continued to down us all in 1 hit each. I left once I realized I spent over 15 silver in repair costs alone from this 1 boss.

I was only running the dungeon so I could unlock explorable mode. I don’t get anything from this dungeon run really, it’s just a fancier way to throw my money down the toilet. Considering to get my gear I have to do dungeons since Orr gear is crap and doesn’t have the stats I need for my build. I don’t know if this is an oversight but I have nothing to spend my Karma on now besides salvage kits. It’s just a lame situation to be in. Period. Considering I don’t care the slightest bit about dungeons one I’ve done them over 5 times and I absolutely hate the crafting in this game. Yet those are my only 2 options to get the end game gear I need. I could WvW but I won’t get a set until 2 years from now because badges of honor are rare to see.

I feel pigeonholed into doing things I just don’t care that much for and when the dungeons are as clearly unbalanced as that boss in CoF then it’s not fun. I enjoy a challenge but it’s not a challenge when you get 1 shot by everything. Especially when there are no clear tells half the time. It just ends up being aggravating so much that I don’t even want to play the game anymore and would rather just go smoke a bowl or two….

So as I see it ANet should do 1 of these…
1) Make it more rewarding. Why give blues and greens when those drop off trash anywhere? Give rares, I would feel good about that. Make them unsalvagable so people can’t exploit it either.
2) Give all armor sets in all forms of the game. Keep dungeon rewards crap, that’s fine. But let me earn a set of armor with the stats I need in any form of the game.
3) Nerf the difficulty. I don’t want this but they seem clearly unbalanced in a large amount of areas.
