Guild Wars 2

The Domain of Anguish was fun when they removed the environmental effects from normal difficulty. The artificial difficulty created by nonsense like “50% chance to miss” had to go. I greatly enjoyed playing the normal mode for the challenge it offered pre-Eye of the North.

And then consumables, Ursan, Shadowform and what have you just threw everything out the window.

Thank god more people are voicing this side of the argument. The weapons are LEGENDARY. what does that mean to you? I think legendary means it’s suppose to be REALLY HARD to get. People need to understand that. And for people saying they arent better and therefore should not be any harder to get. Do you realize you are playing guild wars? Not wow? This game is about skins, not stats.

Having lots of money/time/lucky drops does not equal hard to acquire, and that’s all Legendary items are currently.

Heroes and Henchmen
Bosses not having an absurd amount of health (sometimes)

A fun holiday event ends with players being banned, part of the reason why I hate temporary content in MMOs.

Elric Of Melnibone.4781:

Almost 4 gold a piece seems to indicate a severe shortage of a material needed in so many recipes including exotics which are NOT legendary and should NOT require months if not years worth of farming.

They’re required for vanity exotics and therefore it’s perfectly okay in ANet’s eyes.

Four people enter the room, one tentacle is killed, other at 10%.

Fifth person enters the room, either by means of Mesmer portal or Portal Gun.

Four players retreat using the portal.

One person kills tentacle, triggering agony. This person tries their best to make it to a good rez location.

After agony has cooled down a bit, three players enter the room rez the fourth person.

Fifth person waits for agony to return. I trust players know what triggers it the second time.

I would not consider this bug abuse. If ArenaNet wanted you to receive unavoidable agony damage, then why make it a ground target effect?

Couldn’t you just send one person in to solo the two tentacles first , then send someone in with an instant revive skill after agony to get them back up, duo second phase, send remaining three in, two having instant revive skills, finish last phase?

JJBigs.8456:

first clerics you can still wear the armor, so its down to just rings/backpiece. if your running clerics, i assume your a guardian in which Toughness/Vit/Condition Damage is the best ring you can get. sure you need a heal (Clerics) set for agony but your armor should be good enough and then with the tuff rings, i dont see how you can complain.

Condition damage is pretty terrible on a Guardian.

If I swapped from Cleric’s to Giver’s I would give up 464 power. Unless the Toughness and and Healing Power stats on Giver’s are much higher than Cleric’s it really isn’t a better set for supporting.

Alternatively, I can eat a food for +20% boon duration (and 40% magic find) and only lose 100 power/70 precision.

Very annoying while fighting in fractals

Person with aggro gets knocked off, harpy still wants to attack said person who is now too far away, mob resets and waits for person to get back. Beyond annoying.

Save your endurance for the white flash and not the pull in that he does before it. You can also use line of sight.
