Guild Wars 2

Edit: guild wars 2 is very cpu bound and will dramatically affect performance running 2 client from the same cpu.

i to have the same issue

Theres more of a tempest storm on the forums with people complaining and rightly so.

These storms should be greatly massive violent and overpowered to a degree of using 1 overload for all your Attunements at once. earthquakes, volcanoes, thunder, lightning tornados, hurricains, mealstroms, massive asteroid/meteorite/comet, – knockdowns, stuns, cripple, blind, burning, bleeding, confusion torment.
mass hysteria crying death destruction on a world wide scale for we are the people that are supposed to control the weather the ground we walk on the earths fiery core and the seas and sky’s

Come to think of it when was any natural/elemental disaster limited to 1200

We are Haiti Earthquake (2010) – Cyclone Nargis (2008) – T?hoku Earthquake and Tsunami (2011) – Afghanistan Blizzard (2008) – European Heat Wave (2003) – Pompeii (79 A.D.) And finally Cretaceous–Tertiary event – large-scale mass extinction.

maybe an Nvidia shield tablet streaming, or twitch or youtube or a picture who knows /screeam

that will be all eles with warhorn standing in LA afk playing there macro songs

Make sure you are in a PvE map. Some items act differently in PvP maps.

Good luck.

that is correct i just realized after logging back in and came here to re-post.
thank you for your reply

Searched forum for this before posting.

Just a Small Bug Where I’m Unable to Open – Small Bag of Spirit Shards
I double click and of course nothing happens.

why should ANet Change there trend of Ele Hate since the start of gw1, Nerf or a complete lack of recognition to fix what needs to be fixed.
when the patch hits my ele will be retired.

Gaile Gray What is your memory of pre-searing where you spent alot of time ?

mine is that i do remember being able to go to my GH and get max weapons and elite tomes out of storage and them map back to pre-searing haha

just this from me
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WenzlbYJ-lo

this exact error is happening to me right now for plains of ashford for both my lvl 80’s.
I have already submitted a ticket though i’m unhappy because i don’t get much time to play and i just brought 8k gems.

Will DePaper – HoD – MMK, lol

lol Any Time Vizier. i to have a beast machine but it didn’t stop me crashing

Example of what it is.

Extreme Lag followed by Complete Graphical Freeze,
Mouse pointer is still able to be moved,
The game still runs though we have no control,
No option for sending crash report,
Ctrl-Alt-Delete or Alt Tab to Minimize Guild Wars dose not always work where we have to force a PC reboot.

so many of us are crashing out it can not just be down to our Pc spec’s Overclocks, old graphics drivers or being up to date on windows update.

Indeed a lot are crashing in HoD, we can not send a report coz we have to manually close the gw2.exe or reboot

Name: Oversoul

….I read Shaman King waaaaaay too much…

I suggested this a year ago, it went nowhere. Hopefully it will have a better response now. I really like the idea of aspects. My only problem with it now is the use of an elite skill slot. Spirit of Nature is kitten ed handy in groups.
Saying that it could be applied to the temp pet stow slot since pets no longer agro. The present temp-stow is basically useless anyway.

Rampage as One could then be used in with it. Perhaps, providing different bonuses in some way.

The Reasons for the “Elite Skill” Status is because it would be a “Form” you would merge with you pet.

Also the Devs said they will not implement a Perma-Stow option, being an elite would allow for a slightly longer active merge time than a utility skill and with that a longer skill cool-down period forcing the pet to be active for at least the down time of the skill avoiding perma-stow but allowing the skill to still be useful.

I am not a ranger but though this may be an interesting idea for the class.

Proposed added skill or skill change for the Ranger class.

For Balance purposes I have not added skill, Active Time, buff/s, debuff/s or Effect/s as I am
no expert so i shall leave that up to you and the devs to discuss as it would be far to easy to become OP

Possible skill names:
Rampage as One – Currently used in gw2,
Predatory Bond – Not currently used in gw2.
Have you thought of a better name ? please add

Elite Skill.
For (0…0…*0) seconds, Stow and merge with your current pet,
(No effect unless your pet is alive)
[Place skill effects here]

• example: Stability:
• example: Fury:
• example: Quickness:
• example: Haste

1.5s Activation time – 240 Recharge time,
Profession: Ranger,
Type: Pet,
Slot: Elite.

Usefulness:
Skill Active time could be ( level, trait, or even weapon dependent )

This skill could be used to get around players wanting to stow there pet/s and gain the pets power for a short period of time.

This skill could also be a “Form” Changing the appearance of the player.

Instead of underflow how about combining all servers in PVE like in gw1 but leave them separated for WvW, or just give us an International District.

I am having this issue also, the message appears right upon Login of any character though i’m not getting DC from the game and all seems to function as able to play as i normally would.

Clark Skinner.4902:

I don’t understand why if I use Arcane shield after the pull, I still get downed just the same as not using it.

Arcane Shield Expoldes and stops Blocking after 3 attacks. using it if you get pulled gives you just enough time to dodge back without taking to much dmg.

Lieutenant Kholer is one of the best bosses in the game and fighting him is always fun and funny, even very experienced Kholer fighters get caught out, weather that be running out of dodges or used all your blocking skills or just not paying attention to him, you can still get away from a pull if your quick enough, CC, Blocking, Dodging is your friend here, like any Champ you should try to burn down there Defiant as this will allow you to control them more.

Kholer by far is my all time Fav Boss/Champ in GW2 and to tho’s people that solo him are GWAMM’s its no small job to do this so heres my Congratz to them,

Also in need of congrats is Anet for getting the Champ Lt Kholer Encouter Right in every way you could of. (Apart from pulling through walls)

Edit, added infomation

Answer to the Op’s Question is > No i’m personally not that happy.

as for gw1, it was truly epic in every way, i was mainly a pve grinder for 6 years, but yes pvp was so good and so varied just about anyone could jump in and have fun, even newbie players with non viable builds could still catch you out and kill you.

every class in gw1 could kill any other class with any number of builds, as a staff ele in wvw i’m sort of forced to run with the Zergs, i have no single target dmg what so ever and cant 1v1 for kitten, give me that in Air magic with 25% armor pen on skills or traits also AoE is Supposed to cut players down if there not on the ball, example: Met shower in gw1 was get out or be killed and with no dodge mechanic you had to seriously be aware of whats happening around you

i also don’t see the point in having 80 levels in gw2 as they mean nothing (drop it to 20) make lvling super quick and add content for pvp and pve alike thats rewarding for the player base you have left.

I also feel the reward system fails in gw2, i’m just another one of them poor players stuck on what feels like perma DR. lucky to get even 1 rare per 3 days from a chest, as for drops from monsters i never ever get anything of use or worth

However i will continue to roll gw2 as i hope that Anet can pull something out of the hat. the game is now getting a little stale. think ill reinstall gw1 for some real fun. FA alot few FoW runs see of i can pull a oby edge out at least that RNG was a little Nicer to me Anet.

No it’s already annoying to get to 80

Daily just reset so no more crying plz, it was fail to attempt to get the daily done in the time period we had before reset,

Hi Anet
I was running around in Orr and boom > Game Crash Resulting in “Verifying Archive”
No Warning, Insta closed client and forced me to do this. (Sent Error Report)

Also iv been online and in Orr since the update and have yet to see any Loot Chest appear, porous bones every kill

The Grenth Insta kill room sized Circles maybe was a little Over the top but fun watching zergs go byebye.

So far i personally have managed to dodge them and lived through them dropping me from the ceiling.
I’v had no problem with the Combo Kill Daily as other people have.

Mini games will Have Some sort of reward system for participating.
Also there most likely be a wearable title/s attached to them.
Token Rewards for these type of event are the norm witch will allow you to trade in for Items of worth to the player.

Tho in GW1 is was all about raising tiers on wearable titles such a Lucky/Unlucky in witch you would buy stacks of tokens to be able to participate in mini games such as (9 Rings) http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Nine_Rings

Edit:
Thinking about it some mini games could even plot Worlds/Servers against each other earning Points for WvW titles your all complaining about being impossible to acquire, No seriously look at Lucky & Unlucky titles in GW1 and how time consuming tho’s were to max.

its highly likely one of there guild members wanted the end chest/reward so you got kicked and replaced.

I want kuunavang, Mesmer Elite Canthan Armor, Kurzick Armor, Celestial Weps, Zodiac weps, Oni Blade, Oni Daggers, Glowing Runic Maul, Ring of Fortune, Nine Rings, Rollerbeetle Racing….

you know what, Anet just bring back cantha already.

kRiza krimos.1637:

I want to afk on rings of fortune again so badly!

YES PLEASE

Bring back gw1 MS, it was “Get Out or Be killed”, is this not why you added the dodge mechanic ?
As for MS rarely hitting intended targets plus this “AoE Tone Down” i feel maybe Anet should re-add the KD back to MS to compensate.

jeez could u imagine the uproar of people complaining about MS being OP if it was exactly like gw1 lol

i’m not sure why Anet didn’t adopt the gw1 method of soul binding weapons as it would of been far superior than almost everything you get being soulbound on gw2 its highly frustrating.

GW1 FTW
I remember the YTcracker Track, epic stuff.

Tho i must say Guild Wars Faction’s entire Tracklist was just pure gold
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4LtSMlkBAFE

WvW is a large scale Ab/JQ/FA from GW1 with features from all 3.

In GW1 there was 2 servers Euro/America but you was able to transfer at will as they wasn’t important.
Then you had districts witch limited the max players to prevent Lag, however when district 1 was 80% capacity a new district 2 would appear placing incoming players to the the new district, all tho you could click and join district 1 if it was below 100%.

All players including the sworn enemies ( Luxon & Kurzick ) all existed on the same server mingling in towns/outposts allowing them party up and play together outside of AB.

However you could still get a guest invite to a rivals guild and fight your own team in AB for the title points.
(if you really wanted to grind that) Filthy suxons haha

On the other hand you could play both Sides of the JQ & FA maps no matter what side your guild represented depending in what style of play you wanted at the time.
This was more to the FA map where the kurzicks have a keep with the Luxons bashing on the doors.
(Run Some Kitten Amber Chunks NOW!!!) OMG Kitten, kitten, kitten – Touch Rangers :/ wait for re spawn.

So anyway i’m in agreement with Vorch as i don’t see why this could not have been the way Anet went with gw2 however Anet will not discard Servers to change it so pve’ers will be able to see people outside of WvW

in 6 months more 3 people in any 1 zone in open world doing a DE will never be seen unless servers get merged or discarded and districts implemented.

Ok its no so bad for cross server party’s for dungeons and fotm but not everybody wants to do that and you still have to use gw2flg.com to get that far, now i know there addressing this by adding in there own in game LFG feature but srly it should of been there from the beginning.

LOVED The Moose WvW vid Btw Was almost crying.

Were Kittened end of story, 0 viable builds, retires me ele for a diff class.
(same as i had to do in gw1)

did you really expect anything less from them, only have to look at the Ele in gw1 and how they nerfed them into the floor.

I play staff Ele and i’m quite concerned on how they are going to make this a viable class to play at all.

Hi
You Spoke about more viable builds for classes yet nerfing AoE, what will this mean for staff elementalists and will it force even more people to use d/d
