Bump !
We are looking for 2 new members to join our static guild raid group, new or experienced.
Please refer to the main post for info.
See you in game.
We are currently looking for members to fill up our 2nd team. People who are willing to play core classes consistently such as chrono, druid, rev are most welcomed. Newbies are welcomed, training will be given for every boss.
We are resuming our recruiting for Raiders! PM me ingame or send me an ingame mail if you’re interested and want to know more. (of course, after reading the lengthy post)
To me, repping a guild is a matter of honor. If I’m going to take the time to join a guild and find out about them, and they about me; if I’m going to invest my game time, gold, and mats with this guild, and they’re investing their time helping me, then I want to be proud to represent them.
It’s nice that guilds don’t have to require 100% repping anymore, and it gives their members a lot more freedom. But, as a guild leader, I’m watching to see what my guild members do, or don’t do, when thinking about to whom i should offer promotions. Just as I would rep my guild in order to show my pride in, and loyalty to, them, I would hope to see the same from my guild members.
I think it would be difficult to develop a tight-knit group if everyone is always off doing his or her own thing, with no thought to loyalty to those who ‘have your back’ so to speak.
Or it can be, you will heat your rifle to jump up next platform, and you need to cool it down before jumping to another, and a big nasty chak is coming from below.
There are so many things to do in HoT. I, for one who loves achievement point and item collections never regret spending 100 bucks. I had to juggle among unlocking all elites and their weapons, legendary crafting, raiding, helping others, just not enough time to do all of them.
Some may tell you that HoT lacks of contents, they actually mean “lack of content they love to do, selectively”.
To compare with a random other MMO-expansion for 25€ I got.
2 new classes, 6 new dungeons, 1 raid, 3 new traitlines for each class, longer story, 9 new zones and it’s own legendary weapon system and even more dungeons/raids in future updates. For half the price. :s
According to the description, the Mistward Warboots collections should be unlocked after fully training the Corruption traitline. I had the other 4 pieces collection unlocked just not the warboots.
I tomed my character to lvl 80 in Black Citadel after the tutorial. Trained all traits in one shot except Herald.
I think I read another similar topic but with different piece of armor.
Is there already a solution?
I’d imagine that Reaper destroys everything else when the enemy is below half HP due to the fact that Gravedigger has no cooldown in those situations. To draw a comparison it’d be like a warrior having One Hundred Blades as his autoattack.
My GD hits over 23k in group situations every few seconds.
Berserker HD can hit up to 60k-70k in meta group, 25 might 25 vulnerability etc. But the boss has to be static.
I love the sound more after they changed it. That’s the reason I made the Dreamer in the first place, now they made the reason even stronger than before.
but I’m already looking at using a bit of dire for the reason stated in the OP
Please, no toughness gear you will get aggro, unless you want to get almost 100% aggro uptime and you have 100% sure you will dodge/survive almost everything, or you will just keep dieing and make your teammates life harder.
There is no proof toughness has anything to do with aggro.
Actually most bosses are definitely made to aggro on the player with the most toughess, and with my understanding this is true for ALL bosses in the upcoming raids.
Again, I haven’t found any evidence that that is true for current content. People have found the opposite is true sometimes, and even the wiki says it is player speculation based on other MMOs. It may be true for raids, but won’t there likely be someone else with more toughness than me (will need to see how the raid meta works out)? I’m not even in full dire. A heavy barely needs any toughness to match my level of armor.
Again, is it absolutely true for most bosses, lupicus will ALWAYS favor the player with the most toughness. Some bosses have different ways though, such as mai trin targetting the farthest player from her, etc.
Everything I’ve read on lupi says he favors either glassy characters, high dps, or it’s random. It’s been awhile though, so maybe that’s changed? If you can provide any solid evidence that toughness is the biggest deciding factor, I will gladly accept it. Either way, my question was more about if the lost power/precision would make much of a difference. With good timing, I can handle aggro.
Ok, I am not sure whether how other bosses aggro works. but I can tell you that(at least for the first boss of raid) it does STICK to the highest toughness dude.
We tried it with different person with different toughness, the statement didn’t fail us. Even the splits as well.
And it’s not about you can or cannot dodge the attacks, you are changing the directions the boss is facing constantly and the damage cleaves into your teammates.
So i believe the fastest running class without toy axe is a thief? or i am missing something?
Wth… Shadowstep?
Yes I am bringing Daredevil Pure D/P DPS, reason is to destroy thieves’ exclusion from Raids. Thieves’s Headshots is useful for breaking defiance bar as boss doesn’t die after hp goes 0(at least for Vale guardian and its’ splits), you need to break the bar immediately to ‘officially’ kill it.)
Talking about instant mobility, shadowstepping to the lightning field to back up the amount of people needed to be inside and join back the dps group saved group from wiping.
The latest buff to Daredevil Raw DPS is 17% more than normal thief.
Well, that’s purely my opinions and speculations. It may or may not work out, but I definitely think it worth a try. And you need to have a guild group that’s willing to let you do so.
The person who takes a spot gets the reward, but I think only if they all get found eventually.
The way to solve this problem of not everybody getting a reward, is to simply keep starting the trek once it’s completed.
One thing I noticed with the rush and I think also with the trek is that players only get the reward if the complete mission was a success.
This is extremely good, as it means people care for completing it but also bad as people who need to do it on another time or like with the trek, when you have a trek with many locations but only a few people left who did not yet get a reward they are out of luck.
What I would suggest is that the first time you can only get a personal reward when you complete the full mission, but once it’s completed for the guild then rewards are all personal and it does not matter of that mission is successful.
Talking about rushes.. they are bugged and a pain to play, hope that get fixed this week.
Yes, everyone gets the rewards after all points are found. the best and least troublesome way is to make sure everyone gets theirs the first run.
Okay, it seems that no one posted any answer yet.
We got 2 Treks this week, did 4 times because of some players not getting rewards.
From our experiment, you have to be in the same map with someone in your GROUP who is interacting with the gold symbol.
For eg, if Team 1 leader is the one the finishes the point, Team 2 members are not gonna get any rewards even they are nearby or in the same map. On the other hand, Team 1 members just have to be in the same map to get reward.
After some experimenting, I am fairly certain that any infused ascended ring that dropped with the +5 infusion already in it, before they updated to the new agony infusion system, will not work in the mystic forge.
A quick way to check, is if you link the rings in chat, the ones that wont work show they have a +5 in them when you put your cursor over the name, even though they do not because you extracted them already.
This. Tested and confirmed.
I even tested the rings that used to have Magic Find Stats on it(then later you get to choose stats when MF stats is abolished), those don’t work too.
Ball of Dark energy can only get from salvaging Weapon and Armor, not trinkets. The information is in the achievement panel itself is I am not mistaken.
Just put plus 9s in all to get 143 AR than get the singularity for 5 more AR to reach 148, ask your team to give you some space, problem solved:D worked for me, don’t find any reason to spend another 200 gold just to get 5 AR the singularity gives
It’s just the matter of perspective. It’s whether you take the free living story (both previous& future) for granted, or you value them in the cost. Typical humans behaviour is that when they are given free stuff for sometimes, and when they stop getting it for free, they blame, they forgot it wasn’t any obligation in the first place.
I can see that Anet spoilt most of us, what is expected is Anet coming out living story every 2 weeks is a MUST, and on the other hand they have to come out FULL content expansion.
To me, I would say I take all the future contents into that $50. Hell man, $50 for 2-3 years of fun, why not? it’s not like $500. Unless, you’re content locust.
