Same here, Im also in the Philippines – kittens Occidental, Bacolod. My ping is solid at 200-280 for a whole month. Then just today i spike up to 1,500-3k for no reason at all. Pldt seems stable since I still get to stream 720p no probs. 3mbps plan. I have yet to find out if my ping will remain like this until the following day. I am just hoping this is not related to our ISP because that would be a bigger problem.

Scrapper: Heal T, Med Gyro,AED or ElixH?

hmm I’d really like to believe that its the best one yet but okay, lets say it terms of just heals. Is it still better than Elix H or Gyro? Medkit is out of the question haha I totally agree. Although I think the reason I dislike the HT is because I cannot command it to heal on a whim except for overcharge and the F1 key. Btw what did you mean by waterfield is up?

I know it should be my personal preference but I would really like to learn the proper and most practical healing kit to use. I understand that the Healing Turret is the no.1 choice. 80% of the guides and builds I see involves a Healing Turret regardless of Pve,pvp or WvW. But based on my personal experience the HT just doesn’t cut it for me. It heals very slow and the burst heal just doesn’t give enough kick to help you survive those “im about to die moments” I also understand that making it explode also adds damage but that in a different note. As of now, I use the medical gyro since im using the Scrapper spec. Hammer is my main weapon, i got tired of the pistolx2,rifle and pistol shield. It just really didn’t work out for me. During my leveling, those weapons were good and handy but now I am enjoying the Hammer as main weapon. Elix H on the other hand gives a good heal when needed and some buffs. Also, the AED is pretty handy when you get hit because the heal return is very decent.

Okay, so my question is – how exactly is the HT the no.1 choice? Please forgive my ignorance and correct me if I am wrong, am I just using it wrong? The medical gyro’s F1 skill also helps my party. I like the idea that I can heal my party mates as well that is why I prefer the medical gyro. Before it was elixir H when I was grinding but since im doing dungeon and fractals atm I’d also like to help out with a little healing.

Hello, I live in the Philippines. I usually play from 12 noon up to 1 or 2am in the morning, I was wondering what time does the boss reset? lets say I kill SB at 1pm in the afternoon get my loot and move on. Once I return to the event at 1am in the morning, would that be considered a reset and a new reward?

thank you.

I have already reached lvl 80 and my exp bar is already maxed out. The problem is, when I press the H tab and to go Mastery, both Central Tyria (8 points) and Heart of Maguuma (0) is still locked. I understand that Maguuma is 0 because I have not ventured there yet. Also, I am still working on my story quest atm. Is that the reason it is still locked? On the lower left part of my screen – right beside the exp bar, where the hero lvl used to be prior to reaching lvl 80 still states ZERO. Lastly, does account verification also matter here? im still waiting for my account to be verified via purchase of the game + expansion. Thank you.

Hello everyone. I am new to GW2 as the title stated and I have a few questions i’d like to ask. Forgive me but I have looked around the forums and yes, there are questions that were answered but I wish to ask more specific ones regarding my class and the game itself.

1. When the game asks me if I would like to move to a more populated map but the same kind, does this mean im moving into a different server? I was about to head to the karka queen when this popped up then I clicked yes, suddenly the event already ended when it just began seconds before.

2. I have already reached lvl 80 and I am overwhelmed by the amount of hero points required to unlock the complete scrapper tree. I have managed to get the 1st one which is hammer proficiency. My question is, at the moment, should i stick to my dual pistol/rifle or use the hammer already?

3. Should I be using Elixir H as my main healing skill (mainly for myself) or should I equip healing turret instead? Most guides say that the turret is the most effective. Although using Elixir H heals faster and adds a few buffs. I am confused by this.

4. Lastly, I have purchased HoT along with my new full account. Its my 1st time playing GW2 and I am curious to why my account has not been fully unlocked? I cannot buy from TP nor sell anything. I cannot also send gold through my mail. The support ticket said I should wait 4 days. Its already the 4th day and still I cannot avail these features. I have talked to my GL about his and he mention that upon buying a new account nowadays, I could take weeks. Which was from his personal experience since he also bought a new account to be his alt. Could anyone confirm this?

Anyway, I hope you forgive my ignorant questions and thank you for all your responses.
