Guild Wars 2

My GW2 launcher no longer opens after updating. I tried doing the “-repair” fix in a shortcut.exe but that has yet to solve my problem.

Operating System: Windows 7 Professional 64-bit
Processor: Intel® Core™ i5-4670K CPU @ 3.40GHz (4 CPUs), ~3.4GHz
Memory: 8192MB RAM
Card name: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560

GW2 is a grind? I played Aion for almost 3 years, I will show you grind.

Jeez, can’t you guys just say. “I don’t agree with how liadri was designed but i’m glad you enjoyed the boss fight, and you were finally able to beat it.” Or something around those lines. People need to learn to be civil. Its just a Video game my goodness.

Collin I beg you not to make the legendary armor nothing like Aion Miragents

bumping this, I would like a fix for this armor piece.

I will throw my money at you personally. If you give me this.

Logan is essentially the Jorah Mormont of Guild Wars 2

See I was wondering why arenanet was against farming so much and then it clicked. They made this game for a casual base of players and not hardcore. If Arenanet allowed farming than players who spent more time farming would make more money from selling the rare items they gained, more money means that prices will rise greatly on everything across the board.

Now if i’m a casual player and I want to get an awesome weapon but I see that it’s 100g and I have only a small amount of playtime a week. It will take me much longer to get that weapon without spend a huge chunk of my play time doing something I hate such as farming.

So it’s really a double edge sword who would you like to cater to. Your casual base, or your hardcore fans.

Mujen, i think you look awesome but i would take of the helmet make him a bit more skinner and you have a 10 of 10 mujen if you do that

Thanks big! when I saw the 4/10 before I was thinking that guy was crazy.

8.7/10 I really like the armor blend, especially the mask!

Guild or Player housing

My warrior! Finally got an armor and dye set that blends.

Trust me.

It means a no no word was being used. Such as Kitten or i’m going to kitten, and of course kitten kitten lama kitten in your kitten the fonzie kitten.

You do know that you can buy GW1 and get all those achievement points if you want to. Just be warned, it’s not easy and it’s tedious.

There is no ascended body armor in the game ATM. Just trinkets and jewelry maybe weapons.

but this COULD’ve been the first ascended body armor in the game.
And it’s a event armor – a special armor, with it being exotic , that makes it well, just another exotic with maybe a future new skin.

Mesmers have been porting to the chest almost all day. If they made the item Ascended then it would be pretty much a freebie.

No, keep revealed.

Do you still get that massive loot buff from SouthSun?

I know many people like to keep this private, but my question is where do you farm? For the most part I find myself killing trolls in Frostgorge Sound.

evilapprentice.6379:

Why wouldn’t it work?
With a range of 10,000, it should be able to connect any 2 points in an SPvP map with a walking path (assuming you’re not trying to go through a closed gate or something).

Oh wait…Anet programmed it.

If you can think of a quick program fix you should apply to Anet I hear they are looking for programmers!

Having the same issue, Torment is bugged. On my Thief

Stormcrow.7513:

What is free about it…I pay money for gems and the kitten box. The only thing that is permanent for me is my visa bill…

You pay by choice, not a requirement.

Thank you for the explanation!

I know I’m not the only one who is bored of the three point capture mechanic that is used on every map. My question is what other type of game modes would you guys like to see implemented.

Personally I would love to see an old school GW1 team death match mode. I spent hours upon hours playing random arenas and some of my favorite times was just an old fashion slaughter match.

Here’s a better example. I start off in the top 15%, win a few games and my rank goes down to the top 35%, lose few and my rank goes up to the top 20%. I would think that being in the top 15% would be better then the top 35%. Or am I thinking about it in reverse?

Whenever I win a match my rank decreases, but whenever I lose it increases. I’m curious if anyone else is having this issue?

You type /age, turn the game off, put your head down on your keyboard.

I feel a very heavy nerf coming to thieves and mesmers. As a Thief who doesn’t use a cookie cutter d/p or s/d build. I’m very excited

This pretty much tells the story of these forums:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ng_-HgRfGBY

I think the most wackadoodle post I saw was this player who told a story about getting his sisters to buy the game by showing them some prelaunch concept art of some NPCs. They were so taken with the outfits the NPCs wore that they spent months planning what they were going to wear and poring over dyes, they even went out and bought fabric and created the outfits IRL (handstitched of course) and then when the game launched and those outfits weren’t available to players their dreams were dashed, their hopes destroyed, their hearts broken and of course they don’t play the game any more and now ANet is the devil and they were going to post on every fan forum to destroy the game and the whole time I’m reading it I’m like bwuh?

Nick.6972:

Watch Guild Wars 2 Manifesto, then go in game and play for couple of days, then watch it again, then compare it to GW1, then try guessing why.

Here is the thing, GW1 did well But GW2 is doing better. Even after being out for almost a year, its playerbase is still going strong. If they made GW2 just an updated version of the first one how would that make there buisness expand? Whether you like it or not Anet is a business and every company wants to be number one.

Why that thief didn’t use SB to kill those spirits and destroy those turrets?

Cause he would of got spiked down in the process , esp with those turrets 600-1200 range..the #2 on SB may travel up to 1200 but like nades they have a flight time that could cost him his life quite easily.

He chose to use basilisk venom instead of dagger storm, which would have allowed him to reflect all projectiles, killing those turrets.

I would love to see more finishing animations. Unfortunately the game is rated T so there wouldn’t be many brutal finishers. But things like the ele summoning a giant lightning bolt to destroy there target would be pretty awesome.

TheOneNOnlyGeneralBama.9586:

I dont quite understand people who wants to duel and run around the entire area and completely out of the bounds of a duel area only to heal up etc…the entire map isnt the dueling area , this 720 radius is all thats needed..now lets dance shall we?

Before the tournament we sent all the fighters a copy of the rules about out of bounds. Caed decided to use the same build, where as lady steamhawke changed her build during almost every match.

You know in Jamaican buddy means pen!s so fun facts.

I think in order to join the forums everyone should have to read your post. When did we stop having fun in games, and just started criticizing everything minor detail?

Lux.7169:

Yeah we got on skype and dueled. He is a chill guy. And he likes dinner.

Remember i’m not fat. I’m just cultivating mass.

TheOneNOnlyGeneralBama.9586:

Everyone just calm the kitten down! , lets focus on the matter at hand lol

lux and I actually dueled it down and found out that we are equals.

Lux.7169:

Really you guys are apologizing?

No, this is just silly. A lackluster video about a thief who thinks that killing two scrub warriors is worth making a video out of? Should I post a video of me killing a practice dummy with only my left hand? How about killing svanir with 3 team-mates. Perhaps people in the forums want to see me immobilize a mesmer.

What I see here is an ultra-defensive OP who gets mad whenever someone assumes the point of the topic so he hovers around in the ambiguous topic zone.

What -is- the point of the thread?

Obviously it’s not showing a skilled thief because that was atrocious. The only thing worse than the thief in the video was the 2 warriors.

It’s not about the build because the build sucks and isn’t even posted for discussion.

It’s not about how warriors suck because those are awful representatives straight out of pve who can’t even get the basic combos down.

It’s not about anything… so why post the thread?

OP hasn’t stated what this thread is about, so we’re posting about what we see. All I see is a terrible thief—who has never been on the ladder—who beat two terrible warriors.

And I read is an overly angry player responding to a video. I like to keep my threads clean, actually a player above listed a build that was quite helpful! I don’t mind criticism at all.

But saying I’m a terrible thief, my build sucks without seeing it in reality it actually sounds like your mad. And I apologize that my video made you upset on such a personal level that you needed to insult me. Hopefully you enjoy the rest of your day/night.

Here’s an older video, but I suppose you will say everyone else is garbage.

So… a solo “story mode” to unlock a “group mode”?

It makes no sense. I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed.

Your response reminds me of a louie ck special.

Why is everyone so aggressively dismissive when people post videos. Are you so jaded that you have to be rocked to your foundation by every video that is posted? OP just wanted to share a video of him fighting, he didn’t want to change your life or change the way everyone plays this class.

It’s kinda a human nature thing/ego thing I suppose (not saying I am this way) but when you post a video of your self playing a game/class that a lot of people play, of course you’re going to get judged by your fellow peers, it’s just a thing that happens in any game, you’re just putting your self out their for “critiquing”

Well there is a difference between critiquing and this

Travlane.5948:

id destroy this thief….:P i know warriors that could too. SoR build works on him….boom gg.

That is insulting.

Thank you for actually getting the purpose of my post. Even after I wrote people still feel the need to say how much they are better for some reason.

savints.6281:

It was ok I guess, but I only have one question, why do you play sooo zoomed in, that really only hinders yourself.

That was spectator view, not me actually recording.

bladie.5084:

I have a better idea, instead of over exaggerating your comments, why don’t you guys challenge the guy to a duel? Props for taking the time to make a vid though.

Just remember, when making a vid it takes time and effort into doing it. And the viewers take their time to watch it. Next time find some more competant players to duel against.

Thanks man I appreciate that. If anyone would like to duel I am always up for it and willing to get better!

cookie cutter backstab hasnt worked in months :P….

Yet I still encounter around 7 out of 10 thieves still using it! They live and die by their heartseeker.

either ur on the smallest server in the game….OR….ur misidentifying it. d/d cookie cutter backstab hasnt been a viable build in a long time. not even when mug would crit. it make seem like it as people that were using heartseeker/backstab alot.

actually people are sheep and i think yishis or w.e. his name is did a new d/d video of a few random clips of d/d doing ok here n there. i think people might be trying it out again as they feel that if yishis is doing it they are going to do well too. the real deal is that 75% of wvw thieves (saying this to be safe…id be closer to 85 or 90%) are using d/p with backup sb or s/d……the other small % is a mix of s/d and p/d users. ….of course a small few outliers might run d/d but so small i cant remember the last time i saw one on t2 servers.

Tarnished Coast, and I play primarily fight in sPvP.

uri.6521:

The warior has probably one of the worst condition removals in the game, in fact, the wariors in the video had 0 condition removal so, being hit by a death bolossom will ensure them taking 3000 damage over 10 seconds (10 seconds of 3 stacks of bleed at 100 damage/tick), even the thief was making errors by leting himself get hit and spaming death blossom.
If there was a better thief in the video (i dont use thief BTW) he could easily take 3 wariors and still win.

Oh and i play warior so i know they have 0 condition removal.

Death Blossom – Do an evasive attack over your opponent, striking nearby enemies three times. Each hit causes bleeding.
The reason I use so much is to not only stack bleeds but also to evade incoming attacks. But I do agree my accuracy could be much better!

Arganthium.5638:

This isn’t a duel, this is a video of one warrior running around with no purpose as you slay him/her, and another trying to duel you but failing miserably by running in random directions and looking like an idiot. Your build isn’t even all that good; you probably would have lost had you gone against a single more experienced warrior.

Not impressed.

I actually don’t lose to many warriors, i’m in no form trolling, harassing, or making fun of either warrior. I actually think my build is pretty outstanding. I try not run cookie cutter back stab or stealth based builds. and it works great with a team!

Just a quick duel between two warriors and myself, enjoy!
This isn’t made with any negative intent, so please do not respond to it as such!

GW2 with NO real PvP and a zerg lag WvW and Pve with NO end game gets No 1.
the other MMOs must be really really bad.

What is your definition of “real PvP”?

Real pvp or me would be a structure like wow arena, i know wow sucks atm with bursting peeps down in 4 secs etc to much cc and 1 shot macos, but a similar system
would be fab in gw2.

Something with a small map area a few places to los, a good balance between toons and perhaps a rating system.

I loved random arena in gw1 and jq, in gw2 sometimes it feels a bit of a zerg rush this i dont like.

I think using wow as an example in pvp in it’s current state is a big no. If you run an Spvp match then yes it can be very zergy. Tpvp on the hand is quite stable.
