Guild Wars 2

Things like Breath of Kralkatorrik, Eternal Ice, Symbol of the Inquest, etc. that drop from the World Boss chests have two versions, both level 80: An exotic version, with all the stats you’d expect, and… a Fine version, with only one stat on it that seems pretty much worthless. Do the Fine versions have any redeeming value whatsoever? I mean, is there a Mystic Forge recipe involving them or something? Or are they just vendor trash?

I think the main issue with this champion is that there’s no notice that it should be avoided. In order to move on with the mission, you have to beat the various Champion priestesses, so obviously champions in general in this mission are killable. You have to beat the Champion unfinished Abomination, but he goes down incredibly easily (far more easily than would indicate that a Finished Abomination would wreck your day). Yet… this one specific, unremarkable Champion Abomination is put there to be avoided at all costs? It’s not obvious to the player at all that “Hey, go beat the tar out of every other Champion in the Personal Story missions EXCEPT this one.” How is the player supposed to know that this one is different, and to be avoided, rather than just another enemy to kill?

And yes NSP did hit HOD early last night and they hit us…HOD at our hills for who knows how long and we had captured HOD bay for a while

You guys were one heck of a pain to dislodge from Bay. Nice job on holding it for so long.
