Guild Wars 2

Just restart the client it can do it anywhere.

Had it happen zoning to The grove, Curshed shore, Kessix hills and LA currently. It’s not often every once in a while.

Still irked today both path twice and both times it’s buggy. The door won’t open on 4 or lupicus doesn’t start. When fighting the tar elemental if you die you get bugged and can’t use skills or weapons at all afterwards unless you relog.

I just want my title and want to actually complete these zones.

If it gives me exp gifts each time then im all for it.

My IGN: Bluerain

Im on US are you guys?

I know….just got another bugged arah 4…….

It appears that all achievements from dailies/monthly have gone missing. Couldn’t tell you where to tho.

So I lost about 1k points from all the dailies monthlies I’ve done.

Me but not on the same server :/

Thanks for the info I really appreciate it. You may or may not realize how aggravating broken dungeons are to players. Thank you.

They only way I can hit those is running around in a circle. I have 0 issues with any other objects.

I’m hopeful after patch that the bugs will be fixed and not just create new bugs which has been the current trend.

The fact that they stated they do their own testing isn’t helpful. They need a test server for people to test the stuff on. 1000’s of people do the dungeons a day. How are you going to determine it all works right with just a few devs going through them?

Do they have the time to go through them at a player level 100’s of time a day to make sure they work right and don’t cause other issues?

My guess is they don’t.

How is the person zoning in and the if they leave kicks entire party out and resets dungeon not a bug?

How do they not have a pass leadership implemented. I have never played an MMO where it there isn’t a pass leader.

If it isn’t a bug it’s very poor game design at it’s finest.

I’m not one to complain. I enjoy the game but things that have been broken for a long time now and never really get fixed is starting to bug me. Sure achievements don’t mean much except a number but I would love to have the title and as a casual something to work for.

Current state off affairs says that’s not going to happen.

I’ve played this game everyday since pre-release. I am 2 dungeons away from completing my Dungeon Master title. Unfortunately as it’s looking that won’t ever happen.

Last night I experienced the 3 major issues plaguing dungeons currently. Especially the higher level ones. I get about 4 hours a night to play so I need to be efficient with my time. So I decided to try an work on Arah.

1) I get a full party to go to Arah for path 4. Oh gates aren’t open spend about 30 minutes doing events to open them.

2) After entering the dugeon and it’s going great we get almost to Lupicus and the person that zoned us in had to leave. Kicks entire party and reset zone.

FIX THIS. This is absolutely ridiculous and should have been fixed a week after release. Congratulations on wasting an hour of my time.

So now its been an hour and half. We start over with a new person.

3) We get all the way to Lupicus this time to have him bug. It took us almost another hour to get to him.

FIX YOU DUNGEONS. These are bugging issues that have been posted on for months. MONTHS, and yet they remain broken.

Congratulations you now have wasted close to 3 hours of my time, as it took a tad longer to get to him this time.

Most of the party was fed up and left. I was fed up and left.

Here is the icing on the cake. I had to wait almost a week and half to even enter Arah because the event chain was BUGGED.

I don’t usually complain or whine but im fed up. How can you release new content when you can’t even get your old content to work properly. Should we go ahead and expect the new stuff to be buggy as well?

As people have asked and stated many times with very little to no input from the devs.

Make it so events aren’t required to enter a dungeon. This is ruining it for the casual players. Either the gates and dungeons are closed do to buggy events or there aren’t enough people to do the events.

FIX THE BUGS. A lot of these bugs you have stated are fixed aren’t. What are doing when you say you fixed them and they clearly aren’t?

On a side not AC Hodgins path is at a 75% bug rate for me.

With your new content coming out it will be weeks maybe months before people will do anything else.

/rant off. (didn’t realize I had that much to vent)

I am on Crystal Desert.

I find it very irritating that ANET chooses to do nothing about Arah. This has been bugged on crystal desert for over a week. A WEEK.

Please either remove the event and open the gates permanently or have an event that doesn’t require some stupid chain.

You don’t understand how frustrating this is becoming, not just for me but countless people on many servers.

You updated for maintenance and still managed to have a broken event chain remain in game.

The thing you’re failing to realize is for every person who hates this, there’s a person who loves it.

Have fun with your two months of inferior treadmill model on GW2 before re-subscribing to WoW.

I played both. I wouldn’t re-subscribe to wow because it would cost me money monthly. A slight gear treadmill is better then 15$.

Not to mention WoW is all about recount. If you aren’t on the top of the DPS you are kicked. I don’t need pay 15$ a month because i can’t dps the best.

And unlike the Fractals only hardmode requires the gear. There is no kitten gear level. So you can’t even begin to compare the 2.

Ruby Orichalcum Ring: +67 Power: +48 Precision: +3% Critcal Damage

The difference is so miniscule that I even wonder if the ruby ring is better altogether while the new ascended ring is good for drops.

Apparently that equals 8%…go figure?

Loosifah.4739:

Maybe this is just their way to get people to run the dungeons? I know for a fact 50% of you haven’t done every dungeon.

Maybe that’s because many of us bloody hate dungeons and don’t want to do them.

Well then how do plan on getting the cool looking armor from the dungeon tokens? Oh wait that’s a gear treadmill. Regardless of increased stats are not it’s a treadmill.

So you’re fine either way don’t do the dungeon and keep running around orr everyday.

Someone quote the exact words in this manifesto with a link stating no small gear grinds. Which this is.

I couldn’t find it in there. And people who do lf(insertwhateverhere) are elitist and need to go away.

Really 2 items as of now. A month later another. You guys really can’t get 2 items in a month? And before you blah blah blah hardly a gear treadmill. You can still do the dungeon it will just be harder the farther you go in.

Lets throw wow around. You can’t even enter dungeons without the right gear level.

So I think a month 2 get 2 items is easy. Someone said December adds another OMG another month to get 1 items.

I think the game needs it.

Cheated? You spent 60 dollars for the game. If you chose to buy gems that was prerogative.

It’s hardly a gear treadmill. They are adding 2 items at this time. TWO. A much needed back slot and a ring. OMGZSOOPNOW.

They are raising legendaries to match that. You guys kitten over and over about changing mobs to have something other then HP Pools. Here they are omgzthissucks.

Very little information has been given and some huge assumptions have been made.

Offensive, Defensive, Omni infusion. No information as to what they look but let be an kitten and assume.

Offensive= Dmg% to creature type. Defensive= agony mitigator. Omni= a bit of both. Do I know for sure NO. Why the patch isn’t LIVE yet.

Whine some more you assuming kitten.

Errant Venture.9371:

Unused Infusion slot which ONLY gives you a defensive stat which is ONLY useful against the fear condition which ONLY appears in the high-end levels of the enw dungeon

WRONG and L2R

Quote from official page: “There are multiple types of Infusions and Infusion slots. In November, we’ll introduce Offensive, Defensive, and Omni Infusions of Fine rarity from new Mystic Forge recipes. Infusion upgrade types must be paired with their like slot, with the exception of the rare and versatile Omni Infusions which can be slotted into any type of Infusion slot.”

And no its not “fear” condition, its Agony. Quote from official page: “Ascended gear has Infusion slots, and rarer versions of the items also come with additional Agony Resistance built into them.”
Agony – “This extremely dangerous condition ticks percentages of player health away and can’t be cleansed by normal means. Players who wish to delve deep into the Fractals will find that Agony makes progress increasingly difficult, until they reach the point where some defense against this condition is a must. The only way to mitigate Agony damage is by building up resistance through Infusions”

Good luck playing the new contents with your current exotics.

It says delve deep. I’m guessing you can play in your “exotics” for at least a few rounds before agony even becomes an issues.

I just enjoy reading all the whining that is never ending on these forums. Introduce anything and it’s whine whine whine.

A 2min cut scene I won’t get to WHINE see WHINE.

You people act like you aren’t going to do the new dungeons anyways. You guys don’t even know how to aquire it. Is it drops? Is it rewards? What.

Whine Whine Whine.

I guarantee the next WHINING will be about the new way to get the precursors via scavenger hunt. All those whiners will be people who had to do it the “hard” way and invested blah blah and blah blah blah.

Changes happen get over it. Seriously if you don’t like it go away I for am glad they added a NEW DUNGEON. So you needs some new gear to advance in there omgzthisgamebreaking. WHINE.

I have 3 friends and about half a dozen guildies that need this for PERSONAL STORY and the gates just sit there bugged.

You either need to make them always open or make the gates their own event.

Usually ANet is good with some sort of information but I guess they don’t care about Arah or the amount of people this effects.

Magg will bug when entering bomb room. He won’t fully enter it and stay back in the hallway.

Or he won’t let you even start that part.

Anyone else have this issue?

LFG here?

LFG Arah 1 and 4. Crystal Desert. Add Bluerain will be on all day.

Best Player housing to date IMO is Everquest 2. They even had a tradeskill profession for it.

You could build furniture, paintings, table decor, flowers, rugs, chairs the list goes on. You could rewards in the game like flaming boar skulls you could mount. It was purely ascetic and awesome.

Wish I still had pics of my 3 story mansion all super decorated.

You can get close to Caithe’s face but like everyone says you can’t get their face.

The only other place I go besides LA is the grove. I go there because there crafting set-up and the Tp is right next to it.

I go there on my humans as wellas my Sylvari.

I’d say as long as you don’t run in a circle in one spot all day and don’t have akfgawkga as your name you will be fine.

Not a combo per say but fun little thing. When you use Blood is Power, Epidemic, Corrosive Poison Cloud, and Corrupt Boon you can either consume those conditions off or you Putrid Mark and add them to an enemy.

A few times. Now that I have Dungeon master Title not so much. When I was learning dungeons with my guild I used them… especially in Arah.

redlance.1840:

Look at conversion rate real money – gold in game from Arenanet.
Look at most goldseller websites and see they sell golds way cheaper.
People will buy golds from goldsellers and not gems from Arenanet.
Goldsellers have moneys to buy new accounts or ways (user/pass) to steal accounts to use as bots.

If Arenanet will lower the price of gems from shop to a lower price than goldsellers, there will be less bots. But they are greedy…

Hardly. There isn’t a thing in the gem shop that prevents you from playing the game. For the longest time DDO FREE format required you to buy an item from the cash shop or farm a ridiculous amount of gold to level past a certain point.

You get 5 character slots at creation. If you need more then that you can buy gems are convert gold to gems. By the time you hot 80 on 5 classes you will have enough for the next slot.

So really they are far from greedy requiring nothing from the gem store ever to advance in this game.

No gems need to access content, events, zones are character races/classes.

So go away with your ANet is greedy bullkitten.

lordkrall.7241:

Chests are giving area leveled loot I believe.
Drops from mobs tend to give more on-level item but might drop area-level items as well.

Chest will give you your level specific loot. Mobs will give you loot that is of their level. as an exp…go to AC as 80. Mobs give you 30-35 gear chest will give you 78-80.

Luna.9640:

As many of you may already noticed that there has been a dramatic decrease of bot numbers in past few days (past 2 updates).

I’m really grateful to Anet and all their efforts to remove those as a bot reporting player.

Past 2-3 days i was unable to find a single bot to report while i do my daily Ori Ore grind which made me smile and made my day better.

So i want to thank Anet for the great job and keep it up guys !

P.S. Somehow the overall culling in ORR and WvW has decreased for me with all the bots gone.

I’ve only seen an increase. Yesterday I created a new character and in the very first part after tutorial ran 4 new bots.

Bots get banned. They make new accounts with new ip address. The fact that they were in tutorial area shows they were brand new.

Koreans/Asian bots and the people and the gold selling sites can find work arounds faster then they few people at anet can find them.

Must of been updated recently. When this was first posted IMDB had little info.

Here’s an example. The last day for Halloween. You could get a hat reward. if you missed the last day you can still get the hat.

I don’t see them making a one-time reward event anytime soon.

Since my last post was deleted I’ll just comment again.

There are games that have “body” blocking. It can be more frustrating then helpful. There was a contested mob in one of these games that dropped rare items. Entire guild would chain around it so no one could get through. The later implemented that if a person was put on ignore you could run through them.

Not to bring up another game but I seriously hope this doesn’t turn out to be like wow. Where you are kicked for not right spec or your dps isn’t the highest in the game.

That as a new player on WoW is what made me leave that game. I seriously hope the community here doesn’t turn into that.

Still no response to her voice actor.

What’s the issue with 2? I know one has a ridiculous spawn rate on the set of 3 mobs. As for 2 did it last night with out an issue.

Open invitation if you want to come to Crystal Desert. I enjoy dungeons and would be glad to run people through them.

The only path of a dungeon I have not done is Arah path 4. Everything else I’ve done multiple times.

Zoid.2568:

Necromancer is mostly Support/Tank. There’s no real damage builds.

Ranger has the weakest damage + no real support/tanking abillity.

I guess that’s why they won’t invite those classes. There’s no reason to have 2 Necromancers if both are doing the same thing. Rangers are just bad, low damage + weak support and tanking.

We’ll see when ArenaNet fix these issues.

Hardly. Like poster above me we aren’t “glass cannons” but if built right we can still pump out a lot of dps. With greater marks and ground targeting wells I can hit multiple targets constantly.

If you add in staff recharge of 20% (which I don’t) you can spam mark of blood. Not to mention all the DS traits we can run with.

So no necro’s aren’t just Support/Tank.

If you never played a necro you will relize we have a higher hp pool because we can do a lot of damage to ourselves. We bleed, poison and add vulnerability to ourselves to do a ton of damage to a mob. Also though if you know how to play and can time it you can then transfer the stuff on you to the mob.

What are you talking about. Necro’s like stated have some great dungeon builds. I personally don’t even bother with minions in dungeons and go condition instead I can easily finish out maxing my condition dmg to 1500 with one of my spells.

People are just kitten You don’t need these classes only to complete a dungeons. I rarely roll in groups wth guardians or warriors and have very few issue.

One benefit of guardians is they can pull everything to them so aoe can hit everything at once.

If your on crystal desert I’ll run with you on story mode.

My necro can run around easily in Orr. I don’t have minions out either as they cause more problems.

They only annoying ones are the one that pull you to them.

need a necro pal?

Me and my guildies do dungeons daily. We don’t run with a warrior or a guardian. We usually run with Necro, thief, engineer, Elementalist, and Mesmer or another engineer.

I’d say the one big benefit of a guardian/Warrior is the ability to pull mobs to them, so all the aoe casters can go crazy.

I bought a 5 pack and got a skin first day sold for 25g. Then on last day I was on a lowbie and completed a personal story quest got a key from that. Pulled the scythe skin.

Don’t forget the pulls some of them do.

Lornar’s pass is worse. Lornar’s pass is just huge.
