I’m looking to get 6 commendations before reset. I only need puzzle and challenge. My guild is making up the rest. I will also help out and buy 4k influence if you help me get credit for these.

Thanks!

The Problem with Dungeons

I will try to keep this as concise as possible, however; some background is required.
I am a member of one of the largest guilds on Jade Quarry as a result of this, there are constant Guild Dungeon runs. Let me also point out that I have played every character to 80. The problem I have with Dungeons is the fact that there is such extreme prejudice as to what people want to bring for fast Dungeon runs, exclusively Warriors and Mesmers. This isn’t to say that the dungeons cannot be done with other classes, in fact, I have done nearly every dungeon with every possible class combination to relative success. Yet my point remains: I don’t really want to run every single dungeon on my warrior or mesmer just because of their unparalleled sustainable burst damage. Both classes are fun, but sadly they are not for me as I have had to spend more time on them than I desire because of imbalance in efficiency in dungeons.

The value of condition damage, especially for bleed based condition damage is TIME. If a mob is burst down instantly by hunderp-blades or shatter spec mesmers there is no point to applying conditions or bringing a condition based class.

The value of support is measured by healing and boons. When mobs die instantly, there is a somewhat degrading value for both of these. I will not go into the value of tanks because in this game it’s usually shared with support.
