Tipping mesmers for Southsun JP

You people need to calm down,t he southsun mesmer that I, and a great many others took didnt ask for any payment. She said tips appreciated but not necessary. Either way its a good deed and I chose to pay, has nothing to do with encouraging bad behavior or a bunch of unrelated nonsense, its a nice person getting monetary thanks. Nothing wrong with an undemanded/unexpected tip.

Rangers are not allowed in speed runs...

Hilda Raven.8641

Sounds like you met some warriors in full “jerk” er armor. No, rangers ain’t dead weight in speed runs at all. No class is dead weight in speed runs as long as you know how to play it. People are more likely to kick out a necro or an engineer before they dump rangers from what I’ve seen and I play all classes except mesmer, my ranger is my main, then guardian, warrior etc. Some of the fastest runs I’ve seen had dual rangers in the party. Just ignore the full jerkers

Hilda Raven.8641

I happened to look at the pawprints in snow for Charr.

Going forward: Entirely messed, either each foot is pointing directly out to left and right respectively like we are some deformed spider Charr, or worse, one pawprint points forward and the other points backwards or any combination of the above.

Walking Backward: Miraculously the prints are 100% but only when walking backwards.

Walking with weapons out: Yea, the most hilarious as you get a single pawprint on one side.

Should be an easy fix

I’m a roleplayer on Toast, been there since beta and Anet has not discriminated against us at all. The roleplay opportunities here are very sufficient for this kind of game. Bearing in mind this is a combat orientated game like most MMOs yet they continue to add non combat options like town clothes to please the inner roleplayer in all of us. I feel that you are being a slight bit picky, yes guild halls would be nice but just because they haven’t been added yet hardly means Anet is targeting you at all. Anet has done a great job appealing to many different types of players, trust me that is a hard balance to maintain and at any time the extremists from any group shout about feeling neglected but it is hardly true. In the end roleplay depends on you and your fellow roleplayers, of which there are many on Toast.

Anet is against good profit. I noticed that when they made all the exo gear from maw chest account bound, so even if i have 100 light mantles of w/e when I’m playing a warrior there isn’t any profit I can make without a huge loss from tossing in 4 at a time into the MF. Rings are worse, literally nothing you can do with them so it’s pretty simple. It is designed so we can’t make any money selling what we don’t need. For the hours and hours it can take to get a ring, It’s hard throwing it away for a paltry 4 silver. Same reason risen priests of balthazar minis pile up, god forbid we can sell a exo mini or even mystic forge him and get a useful mini, nope that would mean profit.

When will this be fixed? If ever? Seen it a lot from LOEG tonight in tier two. Everyone says screen and send to Anet but how does that help exactly when names don’t even show? Why won’t they just fix it. It is a cheap exploit, not a tactic. Its all fair if a mesmer hides inside and manages it but dying on gate is really classless.

I agree, while I have no guild and I am no officer I have heard of this issue. And it becomes worse when guilds have representation requirements of 50% or so and there is no way to tell. I got kicked by accident just because the 5% of the time I wasn’t representing is more in your face top of the list than the 95% of the time you are actually repping.

SO yes please to representation percentages and login dates.

Wvw loot

Hilda Raven.8641

No, again I am not having difficulty getting loot bags or anything. Quantity is not my concern, I was asking about quality. Loot quality is so low compared to pve to the point where getting a green for me feels like how often i get a rare in PvE.\

But I suppose it could be due to badges we get. I get tons of those.

I’m new to WvWvW, only been playing it truly a few weeks now as being primarily a PvE and dungeoner. My question is, is there a reason why the loot is so godawful in wvwvw? If there is can someone tell me? I mean even when i tried coming in with magic find up to my ears the loot barely gets better, even a green is like a rare blessing.

Just curious as to why compared to PVE loot is such a joke.

Disagree with new Chest Loot

Hilda Raven.8641

I have a 4 month old gaming rig with an i-7 3770k and a 7970, everything top of the line, new, no expense spared professionally built beast machine and the lag is awful. This is not about poor PCs I assure you, this is server side lag. If you ever stick around after a huge, packed dragon event like tequatl, you’ll notice the springback point when everything speeds up insanely fast for just 30 or so seconds while everything catches up after the major crowd teleports out of the area.

Again i say, nothing to do with PCs, my PC runs everything. I have no issues in any zones except dragon events where there are so many people my character never moves. I can turn it down to the lowest settings graphically in gw2 and the difference is minimal.

Some days are better than others, less people always helps. Perhaps by the time you get on most have already gotten their daily chest from it. No clue, but don’t blame PCs

Disagree with new Chest Loot

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

I mostly agree with OP on this topic. However, I don’t necessarily mind the probability of getting rares from the big bosses.

Instead, I have a problem with just how embarrassingly mindless the fights are. There is literally no strategy involved. The zergs have no problem spamming 1 and easily downing dragons. That seems so insanely wrong to me. I was truly surprised when the new patch didn’t include some counters to the ‘sweet spots’ for the dragons (where a mass of players stand in one location that doesn’t get hit by attacks).

I don’t just want loot from the bosses, I want the sense of accomplishment; I want to feel as though people strategically worked together to defeat the most powerful beings in the world. Then I’ll gladly take the rare.

Agree with this. Something I suggested in another topic is for Anet to develop some kind of crowd-detecting algorithm that allows the dragons to detect large clumps of players. Then make the bosses drop AoE/mobs onto these locations. It will encourage movement, at the very least, and that is good.

Another suggestion is to make the mechanics like the siege in Shatterer/Mega Laser in Teq/Pact Golem/Bombs in Jormag much more important and the focal point, instead of players autoattacking away. Place them in multiple locations too, so you don’t get players focused on just one spot. If all these siege/lasers/etc. fall, you can acually FAIL the mission. This gives an incentive to actually carry out objectives instead of autoattacking the boss.

I feel the Temple events are already a pretty good template. Just apply some of the similar philosophies to the Dragon fights/low level bosses, and I think we’ll be good.

Could not agree more. Make the major events with guaranteed chest rares actually take some work. Make them fail-able, dragons can fly away. Use the same type of system that scales the DEs now, if theres 100s of people present, more mobs, stronger mobs. These huge dragon events are AFK-able. Temples and such are not, a dragon should be a challenge. Add something new to it, make it as much of a challenge as that annoying priest of melandru is to those new to it. The agony, the nightmare and how difficult he is when I was new hehe.

Dragons are supposedly the most feared beings, these events made them look like a pinata.

TLDR, I am all for the greater rewards, but make it a challenge then no one can say they didn’t work for it.

Botting is back with a passion

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

You guys had fixed it for a good while there but now bots are everywhere again. I see naked bots teleport mining all over orr and other areas. I just reported a bot that risen teleported, I don’t know why anyone would waste their time but its teleporting to every risen mob in the area, I got to track it a while since it teleports and the pet never does so it was as simple as following the kitty.

Gone are the obvious bots parked in one area, or running a circuit rangers with the standard grizzly. No, these guys are in guilds, various pets and teleporting all over the place. What exactly makes this hard to catch, someone can’t move from point A to point B faster than swiftness would allow without a wp, shouldnt all these teleport bots be easily netted?

Just figured I’d inform Anet that botting is on the rise again, time to change tactics.

I saw all the complaints, panicked, thought it was the worst ever, freaking made me think i couldn’t run it as fast as usual. It is not hard, really isn’t. Just did path 2, and it was a breeze nearly. Some changes yes but everyone cowering and the ragequits and such were way overrated. Trust me I ran my weakest char too, a ranger and no issues.

Ranger, warrior, dual mesmer and guardian.

Spider is annoying, last boss is annoying till you figure it out but it is still by far one of the easiest dungeons to run. So all those having second thoughts, don’t.

Yea who knows, even if it was for a rare i’d take it. I’m so sick of items with no use piling up. Woohoo you won the RNG game, got Balth priest. 7 balth priests later you’re pretty freaking annoyed you have 7 more than necessary.

Anet does this constantly. I don’t mind them account bounding things because they know they do not want any of us making money. Thats apparent with every one of their changes. Fine, just let us turn it into another mini and have that account bound too. I don’t care just SOMETHING

Items Anet, please fix items that are so bound there is nothing you can do with them when you have multiples.

Ascended rings is a perfect example. Pile up from fractals and I cannot do anything with them. Even if the only option is the forge for a random exo PLEASE give us an option besides a handful of silver from a severely underpriced merchant.

Risen Priest of Balthazar minis. Don’t even get me started on how angry this makes me. Atleast with the account bound minis from wintersday we could at the very least, forge them into others which is what I did when I had 7 quaggans and about 8 of all the other ones. Now we cannot even forge them???

I’ve purchased bank tab after bank tab and I am sick of not being able to do anything at all with in game items. EVEN LEGENDARY WEAPONS CAN BE SALVAGED and mystic forged and we can’t even do that???

Can we please get some insight from the Devs?

The lack of communication from anet is extremely annoying….they are present in other class forums but they have completely ignored the ranger forum for 3 months now…get your act together anet and give us some gah dang feed back.

Agreed, atleast answer us paying customers. Anet has hundreds upon hundreds of my dollars right now and sometimes I feel like a fool. I’m not expecting SuperDevMan to pop in and say yes all these things you want we are giving, but an ANSWER or some kind. Whether you plan to make ranger better, improve its damage/traits/pet or not. It is a pure guessing game with Anet, we just want some acknowledgement even if it is to say no, we are not planning on making changes to such and such features. Atleast we’d stop wishing and hoping and have a straight answer.

Auto Soulbound/Account bound items

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

I don’t know what happened to loot lately but why are so many sigils, runes, armors and weapons coming directly from a chest auto soulbound? I have noticed this with fractals the most and it is really annoying. Get some nice exo or rare you do not need or worse, can’t use. And its Account bound the moment you get it. Why??? Or a single superior rune that is part of a set you don’t want/use, bam instant account bound and soulbound.

Note: I am well aware using/trying on/upgrading items makes them soulbound and this is not what I am referring to. This seems to be a bug with random loot, mostly chest loot being account bound lately.

Is there any plans to increase the drop rate for these? Doing so many dungeons I have never seen this nor heard of anyone doing it. I’m in several active guilds with 75 member counts, frequent dungeoners and not a single person has gotten one, even though many have found precursors. Can we hope for a different way to find these or a way to purchase them? Or atleast up the drop percentage. I understand its supposed to be rare hence some of these jewelry pieces are selling for upwards of 30 gold each but meh its so rare its unheard of. As a level 400 jeweler I’d love them personally xD.

Mob vs pet working as intended?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

From the wiki “Their loyal pets, which rangers tame and train, distract enemies while the rangers strike safely from a distance.”

As of right now, even if I am a mile away and send my pet to attack a mob, the mob has a freaking homing beacon and ignores everything pet does (even fears and such) and goes immediately for me.

This can’t be working as intended. Mobs should attack what is attacking them, or at the very least whatever is doing the most damage. How is it fair if I’m maximum distance, hidden behind something to break LOS, don’t fire a single shot mobs turn are a heat seeking all knowing missile 100% of the time for these higher levels.

Knowing changes need to be made does not mean that you automatically do not know your class and love it.

Ranger is my favorite class, my beloved lvl 80. I do perfectly fine, and love my pet sidekick. I know it and use it effectively but recognize it needs a few tweaks. Anet is aware of this, thats not a QQ or Rangers suck! argument.

Ranger Pets

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

Besides the obvious things like pets need to share agony resistance, why can’t pets just generally share stats. I don’t mean on a 1:1 ratio certainly but the fact of the matter is since pets are half our damage, and half our damage can die so easily/often in things like dungeons and such I just feel that if a ranger invests in vitality, pets should get some of it, etc with any/all stats. Pets are great if you use them right and pull them back when necessary but rangers are weak. We really need share-stating.

You made a good point, made me think of how annoying encounters are when the only thing that can hurt the enemy is some NPC’s magical tool or w/e. Yea I have no comeback for that, you are right that being immune to it messes it up more than just being stronger or armored does. It would only work if every class had a large amount of conditions to choose from at will.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

What you are suggesting is to completely throw off class balance and make condition builds non-viable for general game play. Basically, the entire game would have to be re-made in order to accommodate your request and keep condition damage based builds a viable choice.

Why on earth would anyone make a condition build that is not 100% effective over a direct damage build that is? Even more so when you consider that condition damage is sub-par in comparison to direct damage.

To take that even further, I’ve yet to see a solo-clear video posted with a condition build; that to me is very telling that condition based builds are already garbage. Making condition based builds even worse won’t improve anything.

Makes sense. My question is, if conditions were made more powerful, on par with direct damage dealing builds, would my suggestion then be viable?

The only reason I called conditions secondaryish is simply because compared to damage based builds they are weaker. The same people who attacked me saying it’s a main thing! then later return to say how weak it is in comparison xD It basically proves my point.

So without stack limitations and/or much stronger power/effects, would people still be so oppositional to a teaspoon of element checks and balances?

Does anyone have constructive additions? Because

“We should remove all conditions” And “Well swords and arrows should go right through ghosts” /sarcasmx2 aren’t at all.

I have seen some good points about classes dependent on conditions. I agree. I just believe it is balanced by frequency of mobs.

Lets say a powerful ember just makes your skill set on the useless side because of burning immune.

1. Can you not take into account the fact you don’t run into embers all day everyday? Realize that they are only exact specific places?

2. Can you not take into account that for every strength of a creature there would be an added weakness? Fire vs Ice as an example.

Even if your class is traited to throw down bleeds like it is nothing (Also imo undead would bleed just to clarify, flesh, but dead flesh overkilling the idea isnt necessary) and a earth elemental cannot bleed, you won’t be running into earth eles all kitten day. That is the point I’m trying to get off there will be checks and balances.

See, you’re not thinking about the bigger picture. You’re thinking about a world full of nonbleeding creatures and that really isn’t so.

Thinking about all of the most common enemies, all of them would bleed.
Everything you fight in fractals, certainly bleeds.
Dungeon creatures and bosses would bleed.
Undead could bleed as well.

Off the top of my head, we are leaving out an occasionally metal based things like golems/bots, ghosts and elementals. Is that really going to kill your class? 3 types of creatures out of dozens??? just three? Every single zone has specific typed creatures, nothing is a “surprise”

I don’t see how hard it would be to say, hey I know im going into a ghost filled dungeon, trait accordingly. if you even have to change anything it takes a whole 3 silver…1 single teleport cost. I think its a huge overreaction.

I understand about condition builds and such. I ran a condition build ranger for the longest time. I just don’t view it as a full terrible nerf simply because we will do damage, all attacks aren’t conditions only or something like that.

Also because a fire monster is immune to fire doesn’t make the world come to an end. With the amount of other conditions not to mention raw damage it is easily beaten. I think people are viewing it in absolutes, like if ghosts are immune to physical type conditions then its all over they are unbeatable, it isn’t true. Confusion, fear, vulnerability, weakness, etc are still viable alternatives. There is nothing that would be condition free.

The conditions would turn into a strength and weakness issue. It won’t be all strengths. If an ele’s fire attack did extra to ice enemies, and lightning attacks did double to underwater enemies, etc that would be a balance, not a nerf.

what does magic find actually do?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Hilda Raven.8641

Hilda Raven.8641

From the wiki “Magic find is an attribute that increases a player’s chance to receive uncommon loot from dead foes. Magic find is applied when a foe dies; it does not apply to loot from chests or items randomly created in the Mystic Forge. Everytime you kill a monster you roll on a number of tables, inside these tables are different rarity categories. Magic find increases the chances you will get higher categories. For example if there is a 1 in 10 category, and you have 200% magic find you will have 3/10 chances to get that category. This improves not just the rarity of the items you get but can also improve your chances at getting trophies and rare crafting materials like lodestones.”
