Do people still do the VB meta?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

I’ve been trying to get those T4 rewards, but I can never seem to find a map that does the meta fully. Is there a specific time that it happens, between other metas? Or do people just not do it anymore?

Map bonus rewards system, how does it work?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

I’m not certain on this, but I feel like it has something to do with map Meta events, or big bosses on maps. (Like the Krait Witch, or that Pirate boss) I thought it would be for normal events, big event chains seem the way to go. At least in the jungle.

Question about Legendary Crafting

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

Hello! Simple question, I heard once before, that we will only be able to craft one Legendary total. Is that true, or am I able to craft say, Quip and Hope?(Not trying for them, just an example)

Legends not as chatty as I thought

in Revenant

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

Simple as the title. I thought the legends were gonna be more talkative in general. While fighting the most I get from them are grunts and growls. I feel like at one point a Dev said that the legends would idly chat with your character at times.

BWE2 Reaper "Nothing Can Save You!" Unless...

That’s exactly how it’s ment to be. The counter to Reaper is range and kiting, but once it gets on you and starts putting out some chills and pulls, it starts swinging in their favor.

Slyvari Anatomy retcon (maybe?)

in Lore

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

Short and simple, do you guys think that they might retcon it abit? As of now, they have borderline no organs, because plants. But on the other hand the Mordrem have organs, even the all plant ones.
I’m honestly really wanting them to have more relatable organs, or give us a chat of their anatomy so we know

P.S. I say “we”, I mean RPers.

How's the mesmer and necromancer classes?

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

They are both good classes in most aspects, but it sounds like you would like the Mesmer more. If you like theif and Ele you are probably happy to have good mobilty, which the mesmer has alot of, and the Necro has very very little of.

Why does everyone hate Trahearne?

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

The big reason I hear is that he stole the glory form the charater, but when I played back threw the PS, every time I did something around Truehorn. he praised me for it, never taking credit. If any NPC started to tell him, that he did a good job, he always pointed out that “It was the Commander”. He was humble the entire time

Hello! Wanna let you know that they only popped into the gemstore, one time each, for about day or two. I should also let you know, that no one can send them/give them to you. So while you may not be able to get them at this moment, they will be back in the gemstore at some time in the future.(Probably during HoT, or maybe Halloween for the black wings, and Christmas for the white, but that Holiday thing is just a guess)

I wont lie, I haven’t played too much of the Rev yet, but I don’t think it’s your character shouting. That’s the Legend making noises, not you.
Once again, I could be wrong because I haven’t really done too much with the Rev yet, so I can definitely be wrong, but this is just coming from what I know happens. (That being Legends grunt/growl/shout as you use them)

Don’t worry, your class will survive. You can keep playing the same way as before, just slightly nerfed, or find another way to play. Either way works. If you love your class no amount of nerds will stop you fun.

On the north side of Brisban Wildlands, there is a destroyed bridge and across it a zone entrance, I never noticed it before, but at the same time, never looked.

This is west of the Seraph Observers waypoint

why do sylvari females have breasts?

in Lore

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

We do know why they mimic human appearance

The main key to the design was developing an obvious anatomy that clearly described the race as plant rather than an offshoot of human. However, because the race tightly relates to the essence of human due to the Pale Tree’s influences from Ronan, the overall form has a human silhouette. But if you look more closely, you’ll see the forms are really quite alien. They are a collection of abstract notions the Pale Tree had about what made up the human, as she really only saw the surface. They are a tree’s interpretation of humans.

The real question is: Why does Malyck look humanoid?

I think he looks human, for the same reason Elementals mostly look human. It just works

rytlock’s sword attack was a stealth move in the trailer though. but it’s probably just that 1 skill

That is more of a “go invulrerable and hit X targets”

why do sylvari females have breasts?

in Lore

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

To put is as blunt as possible, and to answer any other hidden questions. It’s the same reasons males have a “banana” and the females have a “pitcher plant”. It it to visually mimic humans by look alone. in the end males have a stick, females have two clumps and a pit.

how powerfull are each nation/race armies?

in Lore

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

I think currently, Charr have the best(only counting the iron legion guys). Their entire culture is military. Even the merchants are trained for combat at some point.
But if it came down to a whole “if all out war, wht race wins” I honestly think the Slyvari win. I mean if the Pale Tree decided that all other races got to go, chances are it end up like nightmare, or goes right back to Mordremoth. At that point whats stopping it from making things like The shadow of the Dragon, or dropping pods into the sea to drift on enemy shores. The sword Calabolg was just one thorn, what if those where mass made for champion Slyvari all with Scarlets knowledge.
I think if that tree went evil, she could lay siege to the western part of Kryta the way the Vinewrath does the Silverwastes. We dont know how hard it is to kill the tree anyway, we can’t even kill the Vinewrath, just push it back for a while.

In short, Charr have the best standing, in all out war, Dragon minion Sylvari is my bet.

Necros hardcountered regardless of build

Look at this way, even I’d you lose to a long range build or kiting build. You died a hero, but they live on the cowards they are. Its more of a moral victory really.

Return of the Monk

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

THe way I see it, they are giving you a way to look like the old class, because they won’t give the classes themselves. I hear that most of the old classes where kinda melded into what we have now. They even said the Reaper spec takes a bit fom the idea of the Dervish, with all of its spinning, or somthing on those lines.

But long story shot, I don’t think we will ever get the old classes at thos point, maybe you will get thing that are derived from the old classes, but that is a close as we get. Throw the Outfit on top of it, and you can make believe.

Possible 3x Life siphon with reaper

Hey everyone, So at the moment we can get two seperate sources of life siphons on all attacks from Vampiric and Vampiric Presence. In the Reaper line (as it stands) called soul eater that gives siphons on great sword hits.
Just wanted to throw that out there, and ask what you all think of it.

Send a support ticket. You got the Shattered Wings from an Achievement, so should player support help you, they can check your account, and unlock them for you. No Promises though, it depends who is going to help you, and how you work your ticket

How good will Valkyier be with Reaper

in Necromancer

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

If feel if you get blood magic over spite,then celestial will get more use, but without blood magic, I would shy away from celestial. I think it would be more worth to focus on more primary stats rather than a little of everything, if you can’t use them.

How good will Valkyier be with Reaper

in Necromancer

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

Suppose we are making a build that gets it’s crit from traits in reaper shroud.
Spite, Soul Reaping and Reaper being the trait lines, built to stay in reaper shroud.

The idea would be you get enought crit from reaper form, you can forget precision, and tank up. When outside of shroud, your extra vitality will help you build up enough LF to get back in.

What I really want is the armour the shroud demo character was wearing; Mix n matching that would be fun!!

anyone know if it’s something we’ll have access to if we don’t already?

Pretty sure it was just the Arah set, plus the Reaper specific hood.

I think he means the armor in the livestream when they first showed the entering/exiting animations for the Shroud

Greatsword

I think it’s just to offset that the attacks are slower, so they gave it that extra inch of range. I figured Anet rather you interupt them, rather than run away from them.

Poison(they said poison will be intensity rather than duration right?) Plus a blind,with chills, damage on child’s and the occasional bleed?
Sounds like you can ruin up to five peoples day pretty easy with that. They can’t heal too well, they can barely hit you, they can’t run away. With a fair amount of damage on top. Sounds really nice.

I think it looks and sounds amazing!

Can revenants use 1h swords/shield?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

you got the old skills Diovid, it has been updated, and Sword MH is more a power-based weapon (thank God, I was tired of the stupid Sword=Condition only philosophy).
In my case, I just hope to get a power Sword offhand to dual wield, but since they use axe offhand I guess mace & sword offhand will come in time too.

Is there a list of updated skills?

How do i do damage?

in Necromancer

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

Simple question.
I never seem to do much damage to anyone in PvP. No matter what. I know how to play fairly well, I can land attack and dodge attacks. Stack my bleeds and what not. I got a normal terror build.

I always see people on the forums say Necros can do insane damage at the cost of defence. I just can’t seem to find the trust in that when I play.

Any blanket advice to throw over me. I would appreciate it.

I really don't like the Flesh Wurm change

in Necromancer

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

The one where you can’t place it unless there is a “path” to teleport to it. They did this to all blink skills, yet this skill has another use that an benefit greatly by being placed outside of the blink path.
I’m not getting to into it, but I just want to voice my opinion. While this may have been a nice change to skills that are “Only” blink skills, this one is hurt by the change.

I always thought it would kinda be like Scarlet. As in the whole map will fight him, and when he is beaten he falls back, and then in your own instance you finish him. Then your told some nonsense why he will still be kicking in the World.

Ability queue, can we disable it?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

What he means is this:
Your using an ability with a fair cast time, during this time you use another ability. As soon as the first skill is done, the second one will begin automatically.

And I don’t know of anyway to disable it, but I also have never really checked.

Will there be f2p changes

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Jake.1430

Jake.1430

I don’t think anything will be F2P. If you have purchased GW2 then you can play everything up to HoT(Basically where we are now)

If you buy Hot then you can play everything in HoT. This includes the new story.

As for new legendarys and precursors, they should technically be for anyone with the materials, but if the masteries to “make” them require Hot, then you gotta buy it.

Say in WoW, you don’t expect to get new gear from the expansion, without actually buying the Xpac
