Guild Wars 2

10/10

Wooooo! all the baddies can’t pug up and faceroll EX dungeons. This means it’s even sweeter to complete EX dungeons and prance around Tyria in dungeon sets, because not everyone can get them now! Virtual high-five to all my fellow dungeon crawlers who will be sticking this out and performing some elite prancing in their tasty dungeon sets.

Though you may be better off targeting a more difficult run as the gear from CoF is becoming very “common”.

The key to being able to run EX mode dungeons is to be in a guild. Since being in my guild, I am able to run dungeons nightly. Clearing EX dungeons is far easier with people you “know” and are using voice chat as well.

Maybe they could give us “emote text” like “Has just taken a deep breath!” so you now know the boss is about to breath fire, acid, etc… whatever. As far as I know, this is not in the game yet right? Could be helpful, maybe.

And maybe automatically initiate a dodge for you?

No, but what I’m getting at is if people are finding it hard to see certain boss animations due to the size of the bosses model, why not have the boss “say something” or “make a noise emote” along with the animation.

someshta.3809:

Most of your player base (the casual base) is not running your dungeons. Even though they want to see the story, they have rejected your content.

Why did you add this content, in this fashion, when what is probably ~90% of your player base is avoiding it?

I seriously doubt you work for Anet and are able to see the data that would/could prove your claims. Just because you find the dungeons to be beyond your ability, does not mean you can make mass vague claims that “most” everyone else shares your opinion. My guild runs dungeons nightly and has a blast doing so. Dungeons in GW2=Nut up or shut up

I’ve seen a few post about how tough this fight is, can’t wait to have a go at it!

Dungeons are only fun if I can faceroll through them and then complain about how there are no real challenges.

stupid-wtf-nochance hard.

This is now an official term for difficulty rating in my guild, thanks.

I suspect this will get reported and your idea shutdown as it would destroy the games economy. Best of luck though

Is there an option to turn on sounds for when guild members sign on and when receiving a whisper?

If not can Anet add one?

Thanks.

Me and my pet eagle " ’Merica" are THE combo.

100% agree as well

I would love to see this changed to better suit the environment of GW2.

Invite on the way MingoLewis

Did we miss you over the weekend? No matter we will be on tonight as well! Looking forward to meeting you in game and thanks for posting.

So everyone who has ran a dungeon or two in GW2 knows it can get rough at times. Full group wipes and such are common, as such how do we treat the players who get upset or question the groups ability to finish the dungeon because of a few wipes. I am talking from a personal point of view and I understand not everyone will have had the same thing happen. However, I have had a few different people up and drop group after only a few wipes in AC. Are these players expecting the dungeon runs to be flawless? Are they WoW xfers who are use to the community looking down on groups that fight tooth and nail to get through a dungeon? I personally feel like the dungeons in GW2 are very tough and I love the fact that we struggle at times to get through them. Players that drop group mid way and abandon their party to finding another player for a partial dungeon run should at some point face some sort of backlash from the community. What does everyone else think?

Update on cloak, we will be doing a Bonus Magic Find banner tonight prior to our dungeon runs. We will announce the time and location in advance while in game tonight so everyone has a chance to get the buff before they head out! Also this weekends goals are to run plenty of events and pvp to obtain influence to cover the Econ 3 perk. This way we can start using the 72 hour buffs!

Thanks for your time and see you in game!

Invite will be coming from Maryjaine.

Awesome, guild invite is on the way!

How many members do you currently have?

I also would like to know the answer to this before buying gems and such, thanks.

I would like to know the answer to this as well, BEFORE I buy anything from the trading post. I wonder if Anet will address this before long?

Macbook Pro

2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7 processor (Turbo Boost up to 3.3GHz) with 6MB shared L3 cache

8GB of 1600MHz DDR3L onboard memory

NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M with 1GB of GDDR5

22’ LED Dell 1080p Display

Razer Naga

Mac = Pro

Im playing on my mac book pro and I run at high settings 50+FPS, 30+ in WvWvW. I installed windows 7 via bootcamp and then installed GW2 like normal. Macs = Pro..just saying

I find my Bear form to not be as tanky as I had hoped, however when I change forms I see that it does increase my stats.

I would love to have a griffon! As for the rest of the OP, it would great to see an evolution system and have our pets reflect the long hard roads we cover together. Me and my bear Nuk have adventured all over Tyria and he still looks the same, GW2 is advanced enough I think to allow our pets to change over time/levels.

Sounds amazing nehezbegar, I hope some of the Anet team see your post and can picture the awesome battle you designed! Well done.

Update on cloak, we are currently residing at a healthy 13 members, well below the inflated status. We are currently running AC Story/Explorer nightly, finished guild workshop perk, Arch 2 perk, Econ 2 perk. Still chugging away on guild vault perk, it’s almost finished. Still actively seeking fun friendly players to join our guild as a member and not a number.

Thanks for your time and see you in game!

This is Balgrus from Cloak, we are looking for quality players and working to keep the guild membership well under the norm, not a fan of inflated guilds. So if your looking for a guild to be a part of and actually get to know the names and personalities of its members, try us out. Worst case its not a good fit and you move on.

So the forum didn’t like the guild name in the title I guess, I apologize for that. Hopefully we will still see some of you as new members and in game!

Hello from Anvil Rock!

<Cloak and Stagger Ale Co.> is a fun and friendly guild looking for fun and friendly players. We currently have Econ 2, Arch 2, and are working on the guild vault. We run guild events such as bonus exp, karma, and magic find weekends and nightly dungeon runs. We are in the process of putting together a sPvP and WvWvW group. Guild is very active and many members are in the EST zone. We use ventrillo and have a personal site, though heavy use of the site has not started as we are all simply leveling and getting to know each other.

Moving forward we plan to be heavily involved with WvWvW, end game world events, and end game dungeons. We have plans to keep the guild memberships at a manageable level as we do not like what guilds turn into when they are over inflated. We strive for positive and active members, not number of members.

Please contact Balgrus, Kolto, Ananeke, or Maryjaine in game for more information and invites. We will also be checking in on this post from time to time so replying on here as well will give us the means to contact you.

Thanks for your time and see you in this amazing game!
