@Thaddeus, I see you point and thanks for posting it.

I guess that I missed something while translating and for that I must apologize. When I posted my first reply I had to fix Point A and Point B twice, and in the last editing I added that there “was ppl who might believe, or dont, and can overcome any challenge” in Point B. (Can be checked with the editing note at the end, if needed).

Ohh I read that, but also

A) Those who believe this and makes the game not fun but just a dps-stacking race and sometimes a burst of rage if any of this list is not followed by the book

As if playing efficiently is somehow objectively unfun.

Personally most dungeons to me are only fun if I’m teaching someone, or if we’re pushing to do it as quickly and efficiently as possible, otherwise it’s just another run at the same thing doing the same stuff.

I “think” (Not sacarms) that I understand your point, still, I think that you didnt catch the part of the “and sometimes a burst of rage if any of this list is not followed by the book”.

I can understand that you want to run any dungeon in the most effcient way possible,
but I still feel that its totally unnecessary the Burst of rage for not following things by the book.

At the moment that anyone (You, me, or any other player) falls into rage bursts, they totally forgot about how to have fun.

1. Anyone not using full zerker or assassins gear.
2. Any necro for dungeons is a waste.
3. Longbow greatsword rangers who think GS/LB is used in all parts of the game and dont bring spotter and frost spirit, so pretty much useless and s stays ranged.
4. Warriors who dont bring battle standard, and dont bring BOTH banner of disc and str when they are the only warrior in the party, and no EA..sigh.
5. Seeing any staff guardians outside clearing plants inTA.
6. Thiefs that dont use S/P, or dont know how to use blinds and dont know tha they can remove defiance on demand so ele ice bow 5 can be used on the boss again.
7. Engineers who dont use rifle, and those who only know flamethrower auto atk.
8. People who cant read lfg notes and just joins.
9. S/D eles, or anything scepter who doesnt even use lightning hammer.
10. People who CC the boss for no apparent reason and give the boss defiance stacks before someone with an ice bow uses ice bow 5, and renders it useless.
11. People who dont know how other classes work but their own but thinks they know better without personally using other classes and their meta builds.
12. Any class using a shield in dungeons outside blasting pre fights.
13. Hammer Warriors
14. Guardians who put symbols on the ground, so ele firefields can’t be blasted, like seriously you can dps without putting those symbols down.
15. Any player who thinks of using a support build and/or use support gear, like clerics gear, thinking that this game needs a tank/dps/heals. JUST STOP, this game is all about DPS in dungeons.

This kind of post makes me, somehow, sad. This shows me that some ppl (Not everyone) really doesnt know how to have fun. They “may” (Yet to be proven) know how to play but they dont know how to have some fun.

Aside, this post started as the most “hated build” and what you point in here are players. So, its pointless.

I guess that this kind of post defines a really strong line between the two types of players in this game:

A) Those who believe this and makes the game not fun but just a dps-stacking race and sometimes a burst of rage if any of this list is not followed by the book

B) Those who might believe this, but still can overcome any challenge with any group composition, having fun and not complaining about.

And posts like this make me sad that some people can’t see the link between success and fun.

I guess, Jerus, that you didnt read this very well:

B) Those who might believe this, but still can overcome any challenge with any group composition, having fun and not complaining about.

It means fun, of course, but also success.

Ranger Pets

I think it would be nice to have pets that don’t forget their names.

Agree.

Or they take other pet’s names too srslynods

Why, oh why can we not have capes !

I would love the idea of capes.

For those who doesnt like capes, they can choose between: Not to use them (Since stats are the same on every item set) or just hide them.

For example, I dont like to much most of the back pieces from crafting, or Koss on Koss design. so I usually hide them while playing. Same could be done with capes if you dislike them.

It is true that at the beginning the capes will have some bugs and problems, but they have plenty of time to make them work right.

Warrior spec

Hey i thought a good idea for warrior specialization was not to give us new wepons. Instead let us dual wield 2handed wepons.(with scaled down dmg ofcourse for balance)

Hi Deni,

Taking aside all the comments in here (Some of them really fun) I dont think that this is a viable option.

Aside of making new animations and lowering stats on each weapon, this also would be unfair for other classes since warrior would have to dual wield Greatswords and Hammers (Not rifles or bows as some ppl comment in here), giving to them 4 new “weapon sets” One dual GS, another Dual hammer, GS/Hammer or Hammer/GS.

One player mentioned something that I´m partially on his side. Imagine a party with 4 warriors and 1 mesmer/guardian/any other class (I´m going to give you the worse scenario possible) with the 4 warriors swinging around 8 Legendary twohanded greatsowrds weapons… You would not be able to check the floor for random hostile AoE attacks due the animations.

Also, even if it sounds kinda fun the chance to dual them, it would be just like Titan’s grip from WoW, and that (For me) would be like “meh”…

Some posts in here mention that they will be granted the use of daggers or pistols, which for me is kinda fine, and I actually like the idea of a knife warrior commando situation more than pistols.

Hope this answer would have been of some help for you.

List of Dungeon Bugs

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Khasandara.4196

Khasandara.4196

Hi everyone, this maybe is not a bug, or maybe is just something normal that evolves in a bug, but here I got:

AC Path 3:
Giant Lizard fight (Colossus Rumblus)

When Grast is casting the dome to protect the players during the earthquake. If he gets a Knockback, he will stand up and continue casting the dome as if the dome was not casted (During that time the Earthquake is over and the first dome still worked).

But if a second earthquake wave comes up, he will do the animation of the of the dome but this time the Dome will be false, allowing the rock to pass and kill the players.

The best way that my group found to “fix” this bug. (Which, once again the bug is not the knockback but the false dome few seconds after during the next Earthquake) is having a guardian or any other class (If there’s any way) to grant npc Grast some Stability. Since he wont has to “recast” the shield the cooldowns of his ability are setup for the next wave.

@FlawlezZ

Thanks for the aclaratory, yesterday I saw the answers in the thread and I really wanted to post something about but I got somehow confused with your post and decided to sleep on it until today. But never is too late and I really thank you for taking the time.

I do understand your example, Its kinda hard to find people that respect other players not only in this game, but in all the games. (Specially since everyone is extremely brave behind the safety of the computer). But I couldnt stay quiet in this matter. And a post in here is one of the few options that I could use to keep this fight on and, maybe is a fool’s errand, try to make things right.

@Evapor

Can´t be sure if your reply was in the best of the mood or maybe juts a reply of someone who is sick of reading this kind of posts, but I´m gonna take it as “the best of the mood”; I´m glad that this kind of post is at least once per week on the forums so people can read it not only from me but from several players with the same ideas.

I saw this like 3 weeks ago, It was quite funny to read at the moment. Since that moment we usually ask for things such as “Bring Penguins” or “Use food lvl 5 or be kicked”

About LFG, Clear runs & Speed runs

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Khasandara.4196

Khasandara.4196

Its been a while already since I want to post my feelings/ideas about the speed runs inside the dungeons, here in GW2.

Time ago, before dungeons were more friendly, I totally understood the idea of skipping several fights inside the dungeons. Some “trash mobs” combination was simply too nasty to fight against and could took lots of tries.

Since I’ve returned to the game (been playing since first month of the release) from a 9 months break (got sick of Scarlett’s schemes) I found out that dungeons were easier, bosses had less health and trash mobs were more easier to kill as well… But still people do speed runs all the time, it’s quite hard to find a group that actually wants, or know, how to fight the entire dungeon’s minion.

I could understand that sometimes it’s just matter of time, they are too busy doing something or they just want to clear the easiest paths for some gold farming… But then why those players joins in LFG posts that says “Casual run” or even “NOT SPEED RUN OR SKIPPING”. (Yes, I’ve tried even in caps and ppl lookign for spped-runs still join)

I do speed runs from time to time with a friend, since he sometimes do full clears in dungeons with me, but each time I have to post in LFG there’s always that one player that never speaks, that skip while no one skips, and that insult those who die just because he (that same one) aggro’ed some adds while running.

This post is, for sure, not a post to find a solution but just to make a petition for those speed runners to read carefully the posts in LFG and make sure to enter in a group that could fill her/his expectations without messing with the group’s idea.

Like most of the players in the game I have done all the dungeons already (while they were a pain to run) but now I enjoy taking my time playing and doing full clears, even if the chances to get decent loot are lower, I’m there for the fun… I took my chances each time I go inside a dungeon and love the ideas of swapping traits and using different utilities skill to overcome some challenges on each run. For me a “casual run” is not a speed run, all zerkers with attkpow high and know how to dodge… I admire those who can run a dungeon alone ( I even tried with my engineer in running one, CM path 3, but couldn’t kill Vallog) but for me a casual run means “don’t bring problems and have fun”.

I hope its not too much to ask for those speed-runners you just go inside dungs to make fun of people or make a mess, troll, yell and then leave. Just take a bit of time reading the LFG specifications instead of jumping in one group that its only missing one player to go… Maybe that group just want to chill, practice, do a full clear or is teaching a new member how to run the dungeons in the most friendly enviroment.

Thanks all for your time.

Goign to be honest… I found it really fun and I just can imagine ppl running Lupi’s fight in Airplane mode, the sounds are good and everythign is fun.. But this weird filter is giving me headache; and probably I´m not the only one.

I care not for the plane stuff but this filter is just being something really problematic.

Turn off post processing the the filter will disappear.

Oh, thats pretty good then, thanks
