Swap stats on an ascended back piece?

You can’t change stats on ANY ascended backpack/ring/amulet, so yes, you are stuck with theses stats.

Well that sucks, wish the wiki was more clear about that… Thanks for the info though.

Swap stats on an ascended back piece?

So I put together a set of infused spinal blades and after playing around with a few support builds in WVW I wanted to switch it to something for fractals. From what I read on the wiki this can be done pretty easy with the mystic forge, except the spinal blades themselves don’t appear in the mystic forge menu any more. Am I just doing this wrong or am I stuck with these stats?

1st person camera

I like to make movies, and I’d love to use GW2 to do so. But as beautiful as the game is their is one thing that keeps me from doing it… the lack of a first person camera…
I’d like to get nice dynamic shots of my friends having a conversation or doing an action that doesn’t involve having to have each of them record separately (so I’m not just standing awkwardly in the middle of the shot) using different recorders and codecs and resolutions, and then having to figure out a way to send me the file without loosing quality with compression. Then having to worry about how its all going to splice together. I’d rather just do the recording and directing myself then edit at my leisure.
Granted… the current camera has worked fine for some people using only self shots. I just think it could be allot broader with this change.

Players looking for Dragonbrand guild

HeyOhh, My friends and I are looking for a new guild on Dragonbrand. We are a starting YouTube team interested in covering topics related to gaming in general, however we do take a keen interest in GW2 WvWvW.
We are all 21+, all have easy access to any voice chat program you may require (vent,mumble,TS3), we are all polite (in a professional sense), and we are all very sexy.
(I just added that last part for lulz,)
Now the group I have in mind for this move is about 3 to 4 players, Only 2 of us are going to be able to make the move right away. the others will need some time to make the transfer when the server is not full up.
I myself play an 80 Guardian (+ several alts), My friend has an 80 Warrior and Elementalist, and my last friend has an 80 warrior… the friend not mentioned has not actually started playing GW2 yet… we’re working to correct for this error.

Magic find is not working

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: Ixnay.5270

the “+%” magic find is calculated from your base magic find.
So for example, Lets say without any gear on at all you have a naked magic find of 2%. that’s a 2% chance to find something. (blues, greens, maybe even a rare)
Now you add gear that gives you +100% additional magic find. that is an extra 100% OF your base magic find.
So your 2% becomes 4%.

I’m actually really impressed with JQ’s progress, a few weeks ago they were an unorganized wreak and now they pulled it together like a champ. Looking forward to many more fights with them now.

Items Removed from WvW

I’m having trouble understanding this one… Your exploit got patched so your angry… (So far so good)… So now you think all portals, specifically those that are part of a legit class mechanic to be removed too? (aaaaand you lost me)
The other posters have covered this point very well, in order for a mesmer to get into a fort to place a portal they had to enter through a downed wall or gate before it was fixed up (they have some speed buffs, blink, invis… this is possible).
Your portal guns just require you to run up to a wall and hop right over… You see the difference right?

Is everyone a Thief?

You can still hit them in invis if you started a channel skill before they vanished or if your good at guessing their movement.
the important thing to remember is, EVERYONE is a spy…

I read about half way into your post and had to stop, you cant expect an entire server of players to play along with some grand scheme you cooked up if they never heard of it before. Most of them are like me and just want to go into WvW and blow stuff up and get their EXP/Karma/Coin… If they see that YOUR servers keeps are easier to take than the other teams then guess who they go after?

Something I thought would be fun but never actually added to the game outside a cut-scene would be the ability for a large race (Norn/char) to be able to pick up and throw friendly asura over distances or objects.

Norn: Wow, I cant believe we made it all the way to the keep!
Asura: Lower your voice they might hear us!
Norn: I doubt it… That one guy we killed to get here was screaming for a good fifteen seconds before his neck finally snapped…
Asura: Thank you for painting that image in my head again… now how do we get in?
Norn: Leave that to me!
Asura: What are you, HEY! PUT ME, WHAAAAAAAaaaaaaa!
Norn: Did you make it?!
Asura: I hate you… so much…
Norn: We will have plenty of time for that later, now take this rope and tie it onto something.

Sorry to hear that OP, never been told to “GTFO” before… only thing I ever heard from a big name guild was a boradcast over map about not taking supply from forts. Hell I’d think more bodies the better! if nothing else than to act as a meat shield…

Is WvW even worth it at lower levels?

Sup, I’m sure you have already come to a conclusion to your question by now. But a good idea is to set a catapult up in a nice prime location, usually overlooking a door way or popular choke point near the front lines and sit in wait. odds are it wont be long until you get a chance to let some boulders fly. after a wile youll have a nice loot pile at your feet, don’t worry about that shady guy on your team eyeballing your catapult. get off it and grab your loot. if he tries to ninja it you can kick him off and take it back! (assuming you payed the 10silver to buy it in the first place)

Switch to WvW instead of WvWvW

You ever play Planetside? Their are many parallels between it and GW2 WvW. It would have been ALLOT less fun if it was just 2 factions… 3 factions is what made it one of the only successful FPSMMO’s ever. The battles were utterly massive and if you were organized you could make a huge impact on the field, and the threat that you could possibly be out flanked by another force all together gave you chills.
Taking that concept and integrating it into a fantasy MMORPG was a great move. Although their are still some bugs and quarks I would like to see ironed out I still really like the way they designed WvW.
