Guild Wars 2

I have the precursor “the lover” thanks to the karka event (no it didn’t drop but it did drop in price enough that I bought one off the trading post) I purchased it for 115g which is way cheaper than I ever imagined I’d pay. Since i started playing gw2 about a month after launch I play maybe 3ish hours aday a few days a week. Once I hit 80 i farmed my nodes and did my daily. I have almost all the stuff to make a legendary except the lodestones which I would have if I didn’t buy 4 sets of exotics and level 2 professions that I didn’t need.

The legendaries are skins that are just out of the reach of most, only because they think it’s hard to obtain. There is no secret to making money in this game, it’s the same as any other. You farm what people want and sell it for 1c less than the guy above you. The only thing I probably did differently (only because I’ve played a few “gem store” mmo) was invest gold into gems when they were cheap and cashed out on halloween.

All and all if you play the game and enjoy it, making a legendary will just come. I know once people get a precursor it’s a rush to make it and it feels daunting seeing how much u need, but everything can be achieved by playing the game and enjoying yourself anyone that says otherwise is an elitist that has to have everything handed to them.

omg that is hilarious

saw a CD warrior in the guild [LW] some how porting his dead body thur the jumping puzzle followed noticed him at the bottom of the arena then on the first jump. Figured it was lag so i didn’t SS it but then he was on the next platform grabbed kitten the he was at the top and then gone before i could grab another to confirm. Not sure how, but i know he was dead (flagged him myself).

think of it in these terms you need 500 honor badges for a legendary but you need close to 1mil karma. This is how anet sees it not that you can get pve gear faster than pvp welcome to every mmo where all pve gear comes faster.

its pretty quick id say it takes way less time than sieging a well defended keep to do all 4 puzzles barring any greifing.

LieutenantGoogle.7326:

and make it so that capturing or defending objectives rewards badges.
As of right now I think it’s safe to say that at least half of all the badge of honors in the game comes from jumping puzzles, killing players is simply unreliable and which it should be to be honest, but it gives a laughably small amount of badges.

Jumping puzzles removes man power from the actually WvW activity.
The mechanics in WvW should promote, trying to capture objectives and defend towers, but as of current jumping puzzles have arguably the most time to reward mechanics in the game, meaning that there are probably some people that just go to WvW do all the jumping puzzles then leave. This should not be how it works.

As for the missing blueprints that comes from the JP I say that karma should be an available currency for buying them. 500 karma = 1 silver ratio, or something around that

so an alpha siege golem would cost 50,000 karma? hmmm the cost of 1 exotic piece of gear or 1 blue print? i think id rather have the JP for that. you do also realize that while half of all badges come from JPs so do half of all blueprints can I know ive never bought a siege golem and i have 12 in my bank and dropped a good 10 since i started playing. And i’ve personally never seen more than maybe 10 people in any 1 JP so that 40 across all maps during the time it takes me to do them.
Now if you me JP campers that a different story, those guys yea they can die in a fire.

Edit: Armoek stole my post
but you can do the jumping puzzles 1 a day per chara. So if you have 4 alts you can net 100+ badges a day.

Just so the servers know

Last night this person approached 3 Yaksbend Alliance Commanders…

I have never seen this person before and with a name like that I don’t think I am missing much. Maybe they are the commander of the Jumping Puzzle WvW unit or something?

No but seriously, has anyone ever seen this person?

PS: Stuck at work, still haven’t slept from last nights events and wondering what is going to happen when I get home. Sleep or?

lol anyone with 100g, all i can really say

there are invisibility wells in EB puzzle for just that reason, I find it hilarious to see trebs and arrow carts in a puzzle when the server own less than 1/10 of the map. QQ more and welcome to pvp, you can pick you body up at the waypoint.

same problem here relogging didn’t work, tarnished coast. I was in a WvW when i noticed a guildie confirmed it via mumble while he was in frostgorge sound

Phrozen thinks the commander title should be something that is obtained through the guild they are in. I.E. influenced based and the guild leader (no I am not a guild leader) should be the one to obtain the title and it should require some crazy amount of influence and take days if not weeks to progress. Just sayin, a commander is a well known person and who better to be commanders in guild wars than guild leaders.

just curious has anyone ever tried to put there back against a wall? Does backstab consider a 180 degree arch to be the “back” i never actually bothered to check I know in wow that for a rogue to ambush he only had like 110 degree window or less. On a side note as a P/P zerker build thief backstab thieves are not something i worry about you would be suprised how many times blackpower has messed a thieves plan up. Zerker Gs warriors catch me more than thieves do it’s weird.
