Massive Warrior NERF!!!!

in Warrior

Throwing my two cents in, I never write on the main forums.

Hanging up my warrior until the expansion hits because this patch ruined warrior. Adrenal health and cleansing ire are nerfed with the 1 bar of adrenaline in berserker mode. Using a burst skill is now one stack which lowers damage done and health received over time.

Mained warrior since the beginning of the game but now it’s just butchered and the only fix is not to use zerk mode.

Ad infinitum too bright?

Masterj.4578

I don’t know where exactly to post this but I recently made the back and I’m finding it too bright for me to “look at” when in combat. I would rather fight with it in it’s “idle” animation. The idle one is more easier on the eyes then the combat one to me.

For example on the pictures below I would rather have the back stay “idled” while in combat. Since it’s a legendary.. can any anet person look into allowing this?

I would love to see some Mordrem mini pets around.

Mini pets such as the teragriff, http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mordrem_Teragriff_Basher , and Mordrem Wolf would make excellent mini pets.

What do you guys think?

an appropriate report for glitching/afk

I have to play devil’s advocate here.

Some people have to really go away just for 30 seconds – 1 minute because of something happening in real life. These things include getting a important phone call about work, spilling drinks all over the keyboard, a child needs attention, or something else.

I once had to afk in just a PvP match for two minutes because I tipped over my water and had to get it cleaned up and switch chairs. Water was dangerously close (on the carpet) to my computer so I just ignored the game and get a towel/moved my pc a little. Came back with two hate mails saying I made their team lose, how I was this and that, and how I was reported for botting.

They were in the same guild and this happened about seven months ago but still, some people just have to afk for unknown reasons and giving players the option to report afk is too much power and will annoy the devs in the report areas.

When will we be able to create these?

So far the farthest you can go on crafting them is the yellow “Tempered Spinal Blades”.

In two weeks will we be able to craft the Dynamic, Synergetic, and Static ones? (Blue, green, and red ones). The Power Cores for these are already in the game but are currently unobtainable.

The Infinite Toxic Krait Tonic takes a little money to make and was wondering if it could be “boosted” to look something like the mini given out when you beat the last boss. Pictures are below comparing them.

I love the game mode but this is kind of irritating to me, fought for 45 minutes and did not get credit for this. I’m still at 4/5.

I got the box popup to accept the reward and accepted but did not kill scarelet because she melted in 15 seconds when she spawned on a mass zerg and I had to waypoint there.

Could this cause me not to get credit for this?

Guide on how to kill Liadri on warrior

in Queen's Jubilee

Posted by: Masterj.4578

Masterj.4578

I got this guide from http://youtu.be/oYIedfHmFwk (MyrkridianTV on youtube) and modified it a little.

With this guide, you’ll get infinite furry, shots that go through shadows, the ability to cripple/bleed/increase incoming damage to Liadri, and make the fight easy.

Food:
1) Bowl of Meat and Winter Vegetable Stew (+30% Endurance regeneration)
2) Master Maintenance Oil

You can use the higher version Bowl of Orrian Truffle and Meat Stew but it’s double the price for only 10% more endurance regen. You must use these.
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Food#Might_on_Dodge

Traits:
0/30/20/20/0

Arms: II VII IX Defense: II IV Tactics: I VII >>MUST USE OR GUIDE WILL NOT WORK<< Only thing you can touch is the 5 points after defence 15.

Skills:
Healing Signet, Stamina Signet, shake it off, endure pain, signet of rage (Don’t use burst skills because defence 15 grants more health regen at max adrenaline).

Armor/weapons:
Full berserker gear with ruby orbs with a melee weapon to kill the first orb only then switch to rifle after the 1st phase is done. I used a superior sigil of accuracy in the berserker rifle.

Guide:
You will spawn somewhere in the cage, you must kill the orb fast. Using a warhorn for speed boost and vigor could help at the first stage but I did not go that route, I went with the greatsword. Drag the shadow figures into the light to make them crystals then immediately just run on top of Liadri and toss it at her.

Take the safe route and don’t be risky, meaning don’t dodge inside the red rings because one mistake and you’re done. I used whirlwind attack to rush out of danger and dodged. Three crystals tossed at her and she will begin attacking you and now the fun begins!

Second phase:
Switch to rifle immediately and never switch back to your other weapon(s).

With the traits I posted, the recharge rate of cripple will be 8 seconds and will immobilize her along with giving you furry. Use skill 2 (cripple, immobilize) then brutal shot (-8% to her) then volley and just spam 1 while watching the floor avoiding insta-death rings. Also wait a extra 2 seconds with aimed shot (skill 2) so the trait furry will kick in when you immobilize her again. Try to stay near the middle, if you go to far off you might waste endurance trying to dodge then die.

If you get pulled use rifle butt to kill the orb and dodge away if you need to.

Use shake it off just incase if you get crippled and the trait line shake it off only removed weakness.

Use endure pain if Liadri just jumps you and you can’t get away fast enough.

All you have to do is keep Liadri targeted and with crack shot (VII) everything will just pass through the shadows and hit her as well.

Practice makes perfect, and good luck!

Do Legendary User Impress You?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Masterj.4578

Masterj.4578

In all honesty, a legendary holder is either:

1) Had exterme luck with RNG, either with dumping rares into the mystic forge and getting a precursor on half the cost of getting it, or obtaining during a drop/dragon chest.

2) Used real life money.

3) Put aside things in the game and farmed everything to chain events.

4) Farmed Cof 1 for hours on end, for days, for months.

5) Got a precursor (or several) during Oct/Nov then dumped them after december for a huge profit.

6) Combination of above.

Warrior Arms, Deep Strike(I) trait is broken.

Masterj.4578

Using this sometimes does not work. The error can easily be reporduced and possibly to a unfair advantage.

—Make sure you have 10 points in Arms and deep strikes chosen. Have all signets you can equiped.

Your precision does not increase. Will “fix” it self by picking a non signet then switching back for each and every signet.

—Make sure you have deep strikes chosen. Refresh all signets using the above method to make sure it “clicks”.

The trait “deep strikes” can now be not chosen and you keep the effects of it even with it OFF.

Don’t feel like deep testing to just see if the hero panel report is wrong or if it is really true in world.

Played another MMO for 10 min. back to GW2

Masterj.4578

I wont lie, I played another MMO for about 10 years.

My friends and everyone was talking how much fun GW2 was so I decided to google it and seen it had a unique story telling method (which I love) and events on every single map. I fell in love with the music also.

I played for about 5 hours straight when I first got GW2 back in december and fell in love with it. Haven’t stopped playing since and this game is now “my main MMO”. Best thing with GW2 is if you get bored with PVE, click a button and boom, you’re in PVP or WvWvW.

Last week I repaid my 13~usd fee to play the old MMO I played for 10 years and after a hour I found out that browsing the web was more fun then playing the actual game. The game play is really sloooooow You hit the enemy once, he hits you back, then repeat about 15 times and you win!

I hope GW2 expandes and forces other MMO companies to sweat a little because in reality GW2 does have its faults but in general is kitten better then other MMO’s out there.

Endless Mystery Cat Tonic Chances

Don’t want to be the one to complain but the chances on all the cat transformations should be the same. Spamming it for awhile and it seems the tiger one has around a 1/50 chance to pop. I only wanted to run around as a tiger while waiting for mega bosses or in town, so please change this so that all transformations have a equal chance to show. Or increase the time changed from 5 minutes to 15 minutes like other tonics, it will help us out a little bit.

GW2 is so much better...

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

I love gw2 because of the item system.

In other MMO’s I’ve played, to take down a “boss” it would require 18 people (max in a “group” and “minimum” to kill the thing because it was really hard). The boss would have a very low drop rate (sometimes <5% drop rate) and if the boss dropped the super rare item a third of the group would want it making chances of you getting it even lower. To make it worse some even had a limit of killing it after doing a long chain of prerequisite quests that took literally 1-2 weeks to do because of the one mission every 24 hour thing.

In gw2, you can literally jump to a waypoint and start charging towards dragons and bosses. In other games I’ve played, you would have to sit in town for around 30 minutes+, get a group, wait for everything to fall in place (10~ minutes), travel (5-10 minutes), fight (sometimes taking 30 min-1 hour depending on what you’re doing), and hope for the item. The item usually did not drop and after weeks of spamming the unlucky ones that lost the bid (fought for months, some rare but even a full year of spamming nearly everyday) would just move on the the next thing without nothing to show for it while others sometimes went 1/1 on it.

It’s a older (still pay to play) MMO that is dying and hopefully more people move away from it because in all reality it was not fun and the people that stay are the ones that don’t want to move on because they put over 10 years of work into a game.

So from my point of view, gw2 > all MMO’s I’ve played.

Some may say I’m exaggerating when it took a year to get a item (some even took 3 years in the early days of the game) but I’m not lying at all. I would say the name of the game but it would tarnish the company and I will not do that. (Some readers may know it already).

Mystery tonics and the Mystic Forge.

in Suggestions

Posted by: Masterj.4578

Masterj.4578

Would be cheaper and better to allow the use of x2 mystery tonic (either forest or furniture) with the 2 other ingredients to be used in the mystic forge to make account bound tonics.

For example, it costs around 60 silver to make the mystery tonic beast. This yields 5 beast mystery tonics which can be used in the mystic forge to make other account bound tonics (such as krait). (x2 beast mystery tonic, Tiny Fang, Tiny Scale).

The recipe would greatly be enhanced if the recipes allowed the cheaper versions of the mystery tonics to take the place of the beast ones (nearly half the cost).

Leveling Artificer to 400 for Tonics.

in Crafting

Posted by: Masterj.4578

Masterj.4578

I was thinking about leveling Artificer for some of the soul bound tonics such as the Krait, Plant Wolf, Skale, and some other tonics.

The mystery tonics, primary parts of the soul bound tonics, can be only made by a 400 Artificer.

My question is can you use the “cheaper tonics” (furniture and the one that “smells like forest”) combined with the right ingredients in the Mystic Forge to create the soul bound tonics such as the Krait tonic? The real expensive one (that says it smells like singed fur and feathers) costs around 50 silver to make and would make the soulbound ones really expensive and not worth it.

GW2 official wiki and many other sites are very vague on these subjects.

Issues with character art, weapons, or armor?

- Armor/clothing art issues.

I am a Male, Charr, Warrior.

Charr Tier 3 cultural armor called Dreadnought has dye issues when transmuted. Every piece is transmuted (the appearance of the armor is kept but stats from another armor are taken).

Can not paint the original color with dyes or even remove the dye to get it back to the original color. When you do this, the color changes to “dye remover color” when you exit the hero screen and go back to the hero screen. The color is seen in world also.

Picture 1 is what the armor should look like with no dye. Picture 2 is what it looks like when you try to get it back to original color via removing color option or trying to dye it back to the original color.

I am having this bug also. I have the gold paint and earthern for the dreadnought on my character but when I use any of the “default” colors it goes to a dye remover color.

All of the armor is trasmuted. Please fix this, dreadnought is real expensive and I just want to paint it gold again like before it got (quickly) transmuted to better stats.

Can transmutation stones be used this way?

Masterj.4578

Cool, thank you guys for the quick answer

Can transmutation stones be used this way?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Masterj.4578

Masterj.4578

I want to use “Fine Transmutation Stones” (level 80) to transfer the look of culture armor and keep the stats of level 80 karma gear or some other armor down the line. Basically keeping the culture gear for a “skin” of the good armor stats. Will this effect runes already placed into the karma gear?

I like the look of Charr culture gear but the level and stats on them are far to low for level 80.

If I decide (or better armor comes out in a few months, never know) could I use the “restated” culture armor to keep as a skin for the newer gear?

Sorry for so many questions, gw2 wiki is vague on explaning them thoroughly and I need a 100% answer before dumping loads of karma or gold for skin gear.
