Guild Wars 2

This would be heaven for my Salvage o Matic, I have to make sure all my characters are logged near a bank, swap and then log my alts to be able to use it =[

Will you be doing this late this afternoon/ Evening as i’ll happily join then!

We’ll be here almost all day [ no life day ;D ]. We made a guild for it to make communication easier aswell

Just wait on the “New build available, game will be restarted in x amount of minutes” , That’s when the patch is actually in. This is a common bug when a new patch arrives ;p

I gotta say I was really impressed with FS execution of the UW Bay capture. We managed to leave 2 mesmers inside, and port a 25 man zerg after they left. We were still building our 3rd ram when they appeared and portal bombed us to seven hells. Took them under a minute, impressive. And after that, they figured our mesmer hiding tactic right away, and even successfully blocked it for 2 hours-ish, until the mesmers left. Kudos.

I knew it! I had left by then, but the two dead mesmers in our bay that wouldn’t WP-revive was just making my “TROUBLE” senses go off left and right ;p

Well done though, couldn’t figure out where you guys were

Thank you! I’ve been wanting these aswell, and maybe a sorry? Like when you accidentally kill someone in JP D=

You guys just made my day <3

Last night some of us [ FS] went to a full out green homeborderlands of DZ and as soon as we started capping UW started capping there aswell.

coincidence? I dont think so…

Pretty sure both servers were just looking for an opening since DZ had the whole map. It’s pretty demotivating to jump in then ;p. And fear not UW killed FS in there aswell ;]

Ashanor.5319:

Is it normal for groups to not want anyone who isn’t 80? I was expecting it to be easy to get a group for AC since the level is 35 and my Warrior is 50 and in full rares with major sigils and runes. The common response seems to be something along the lines of, “Oh, you aren’t 80? Sorry.”. Not that I blame them if the system is designed in a way that discourages taking anyone who isn’t 80, but it kind of defeats the purpose of it being a level 35 dungeon in my opinion.

I reckon it’s normal for speedrun players. My guild personally doesn’t mind low levels, since we all started out like that at one point. I reckon it’s just having the luck of finding someone who’s patient and doesn’t mind helping out.

As for being an experienced dungeonrunner that is just leveling up an alt, you could always mention that i suppose. Either way, i’m rather annoyed at this aswell, but i’m sure you can find some suitable parties at one point ^.^

For everyone thinking our opponents are teaming up against us. Last night some of us [ FS] went to a full out green homeborderlands of DZ and as soon as we started capping UW started capping there aswell. There’s your evidence, no-ones teaming up.

As for everyone saying FS is being a sore loser. Don’t judge by a few flamers. I think this counts for every server aswell, If you see one botter it doesn’t mean the rest is that aswell.

Aside from that, i’m still having fun, thanks;3

You know when i first noticed this thread i was kinda proud of how the servers were communicating but as it turns out it just ended up into a full out pointing fingers war.

MADNESS!

Not bothering reading all the raging at eachother. But what i did want to say is, this matchup is making me enjoy WvW again. I loved it when FS was still active at the beginning and then the server switches started and let’s be honest. FS WvW died. However in this match up i’ve seen so many people getting back to it and actually had some impossible escapes in some fights. It’s been well fun.

And on a side note, I’m totally fangirling BLOS guild. ;3

That already started 2 matchups ago, we had queues again on EB and sometimes EB and FS BL at same time. Also everyone really enjoyed the matchup with UW and RoF. It’s now with this previous and current matchups where Dz chimed in that actually folks are getting frustrated and somewhat raging again which us understandable because we’re currently in about the same situation we were back in t1 against VS, so it’s salt in our wounds so to speak.
If you start enjoying it again with this matchup I can only say I’m sorry you weren’t there the 2 matchups before because that was honoustly one of the most fun matchups we’ve had since launch.

I was, i’m just a silent bystander on forums xD. And yeah i get what you mean with the salt in the wounds, but on the other side, you’d think we’d be used to it by now thanks to VS right? :L

What i’d say to our players is, don’t let the frustration get to you and just take it out in the actual battle. -It’s what i do, i even laugh like a creep when i kill someone xD-

But yeah, i guess i’m just noticing our server working together again, it’s a nice thing to see coming back

It looks well good! I keep getting amazed by the talented people we have playing this game;3

I hate to bother you when you’re already so obviously swamped. But i’ll be honest with you i just can’t resist. The temptation of having a sketched version of my little thief;3

Just wanted to thank you for doing this for us, really appreciate it, and you do it so well aswell! Thanks again!^^

So i was going down the list and saw the longbow and bought it but i got a shortbow thinking i was buying a longbow. Anyone know if theres anyway anet will give me the 390 ac points back so i can buy a longbow? Because my war cant use shortbows and i cant even give it to my ranger or thief which is a pretty dumb idea. So im stuck with a 390 point shortbow i cant use because i was allowed to buy something my class cant use.

Heya so like the person above me said you can try transmuting it for your other chars. If you don’t wanna do that try salvaging it if its the level 80 one you have. You have a shot at getting some globs out of it and you can sell those for cash. Not the solution you want but atleast its profitable to some extent

Heya you can fix the bug with hammer stuck in air by all dying, you will retry and get the hammer back. As for the d/cing they’re working on a fix for that, Just count on it for now that if you d/c you can’t get back in

Heya, first of al, you have had some bad team luck! Aside from that, you can minimise these things occurring by communicating with your leader. For instance if you haven’t done it yet, let them know. Sure you risk getting replaced but there’s enough people wanting to help out you aswell. As for the reward clicking, whenever i open a dungeon i ask if anyone’s claimed it before i tele out. So you could just aswell discuss that in advance aswell, asking the leader to wait with tele-ing out till everyone announced they got their reward.

As for your idea, i like it quite alot. It’s insanely frustrating if the dungeon leader d/c’s at the endboss. I’d be thrilled with a feature of passing leadership. You might wanna post this on suggestion forums aswell ^.^

It’s indeed character bound, my guess is that it’s so you can join lower leveled groups without the frustration. Let’s say you’re a level 7 and the only group you can find is with atleast 1 person at level 1, then you can just hop chars and still get the satisfaction of progressing.

On the other hand you’re not alone in the frustration that it’s character based, there’s some more threads up. So keep a look out on those crowded ones and maybe you’ll get a Arenanet response on it

Well as a player that is rarely getting any rares or exotics from ANY dungeon, i’d say that it isn’t dungeon based but luck based. Honestly i’ve gotten my best drops in CoF i think

SteepledHat.1345:

I wish there was a way to bring a DC’ed player back into your fractal. Seems a bit silly that you can’t. But I think this is to dissuade kicking pugs at the end of a fractal for your guild mates.

Actually it wasn’t intended, they’re working on a fix so you can get back in after a d/c

Heya sounds like a good idea, i’m always missing that fifth person! – And yeah you can choose not to represent even if you’re a leader

Stormcycle.4208:

As someone who has played WoW since its beta and up til halfway through Cataclysm, as well as Rift, I have to say that this new dungeon is the best design for PvE I have ever seen.

For those who haven’t tried it, its a series of stages that you get at random. They are full of challenging puzzles and bosses and require you to work together as a team to figure it out. The mentally challenged need not apply, you will not faceroll your way to loot which is nice and I think that is what is turning some people off.

For me its the best thing ever. Once you complete three random stages you advance to the next “level” and it gets harder. It seemingly goes on forever.. I haven’t gone past Level 2 myself. But I see people asking for people to join for Level 9, which if it goes that high up with new stages the entire time, its a massive amount of PvE content for just one dungeon.

Really does justice to the name “Fractals of the Mists” which seems to be going after a concept of different dimensions that you keep jumping through.

The artwork in this game for PvE is amazing so a lot of the levels are beautiful.

One thing I wish they would work on though, is we need more in game PvE music. I know a lot of people listen to dubstep while they play MMOs, but I would rather put a block of dried ice down my pants and play than listen to dubstep.

I enjoy the soothing in game music in video games, the problem here is that the sound track repeats no matter what part of the game you are in.

Oh yeah, for the people complaining that they cant get in FotM with a lower level character, I play it all the time on my level 35 Elementalist. I just form my own group, people are ready to join, at least on my server. (Jade Quarry) Map chat is constantly being spammed for groups so it fills instantly.

Every now and then ill get a snide comment, but they go anyway because the group is already formed Anyway once inside I prove myself. I have a level 80 aside from this character and I know how to play. The game does a really good job of scaling you up to 80 for this dungeon.

Anyway thats my 2 cents on the matter.

Glad to see someone else enjoying the dungeons just cause you have to think about what you’re doing. Also if you want soothing music [ since i don’t like dubstep either ] try Radiohead or Agnes Obel

I’d still do it, simply because its not a dungeon you can run through brainless mode. You have to work together and figure out every element. The only downside on it is that if you don’t work together well, lots a accusations go back and forth

Now, this has no indication of difficulty, but both swamp and aquatic are easy as heck, and the fastest fractals. Whenever I see them Im more than happy.

Eesh, I built both of those… guess I need to toughen them up a bit…

Please don’t, you have no idea the horrible things that were said on skype when we were doing the Swamp

Heya i feel your pain, but as stickied in the Dungeons thread, try using this till they make a group finder system : http://gw2lfg.com/

20 And loving it. Got bored of Pve, moved to WvW got bored of WvW, moved to Spvp. Even if you get bored of one thing there’s still so much more to do. Pretty sure i’ll be hooked for ages on this game

Agreed, commanders could be great but as it is now, its nothing more but a fancy icon.

You’d need to be able to see your members, call targets and i also feel like you should be able to turn you Commander icon on or off, or set it to only Squad.

Why set it only to squad visibility? Simply because its a waste if everyone on the map follows the commander, when there could be lets say 3 zergs instead covering more ground

Not too fond of this, but to go along with it. When would ranks be reset? Else everyone would end up as commander.

Also this would be quite a bit of a setback for beginners. Its already hard as a level 10 to fight a level 80 with exotics in WVW, wouldnt this just broaden the gap?

Agreed, they should be made account bound instead of soulbound.

Protip: Don’t get lured into the other world’s base, you will die. Legendary defenders kick your kitten

[ Yeah i realise most of you know this, but i still see it happening every now and then ;p ]

I second this!

Well they’d all go after eachothers orbs, cause who-ever holds the orb will automatically safeguard their position. I mean if you’re top server, you steal them so no-one can get that boost. If you’re on low points you will want them to get the boost etc etc.

In short the entire fight will revolve around the orbs most of the time.

Well i think its a bit ridiculous aswell, but for your state of mind, just think there’s “traps” in the enemy walls, and thats why they don’t wanna keep it. Paranoid fighters ftw!

There’s a high risk of exploiting here though, WvW would turn around to sheer orb farming. However i do agree there needs to be a new reason for servers behind to catch up. Especially with the constant mentioned nightcapping.

You have to buy Waypoints at a keep for them to excist, So usually theres only 3 Waypoints. 1 for Each base

Dont know about the rest of you, but i earned most of my cash by doing events in WvW. Also make sure you got a highquality gathering item on you at all times. The high rate gathering objects in Eternal usually sell for quite alot on TradingPost

We’ll add an option to stop queueing for your home world, for players who want to remain on an overflow server indefinitely without being asked.

If it isn’t in yet it should be by tonight. Can’t give you instructions on how to apply it yet though D=

I’d only use the best salvage kits if you wanna try and salvage a rune from some items. But thats just my experience using it ;p

There will be no more different weaponskills, however if you want some variety use your weaponswap option, or just go elementalist! Since they have alot more skills per weapon ;]

Its the karma items you cant sell or salvage, this is to prevent abusing them to get mats or farming karma into gold. However if you just drag them out of your bag they just get destroyed. Also you might wanna see if you can forge them, i can’t guarantee that works though, have yet to check it out
