lf Guild on Blackgate (WvW, social, Pve)

Spectrals.4682

Hello, I’ve recently come back to GW2 after 3 years and I’ve decided to come back for all the fun times I’ve had. I’m looking for a social setting of fun people who are both well coordinated on comms when it comes to getting things done but actively social and friendly. I have 5 lvl 80s (Necro, War, Gaurdian, Ranger, & Engineer) with my necro as my main. I also have 3 commander tags, and I’m pretty well geared. Send me a message in-game, mail to “Scarlet Pvp” or simply just reply to this thread. Thank you!

The Omega is a tight-knit PvX and RP guild ran by Scarlet PvP on Blackgate. We have members who have just picked up Guild Wars 2 recently and members who have been playing since Beta like myself. We are a 100% Rep guild to bring members closer as friends. [OMGA]’s Number 1 priority is having fun in a social, care-free environment.

EVERY member’s thoughts count

-Guild website with open forums for events
-Guild Polls and votes decide what we do each week
-Whether we Role play game of thrones or run Arah is up to everyone

Being SOCIAL is what we do!

-We have our own Ventrillo 25 man server for communication
That we use for nearly everything!

Active Participation is a MUST

- We try to run as many dungeons with guildies as we can a day
-We have parties, events and competitions with Gold prizes

Each member is special
What skills, background or personality makes you different from everyone else?
For example:
-Some people are really great at pvp
-Some may know all dungeon paths
-One of our member is a streamer for twitch.tv
-I (The Guildmaster) am a Dj and take requests for live mixes

So if you like what we have to offer, I have but one question for you (and you can answer this in my mailbox in-game or as a response to this post:
What makes you special?

my healing power is 550 and my armor is PPC. I want my ranger to do damage over time with conditons and such but be able to solo PVE type enemies like in fractals or dungeons.

What sort of trinkets should i go for? Vitality for extra health? More Healing power? More power for more damage?

Posted by: Spectrals.4682

Spectrals.4682

Hello all, I am the guild leader of [OMGA] Alpha Omega Awesome Sauce. We are a upstarting guild that is pvp dedicated exclusively. The mission of our guild is to have many skilled pvpers to come together and form groups for tpvp and of course, win! We are not 100% rep like most guilds and we are not bound to any server! You must only represent when in PvP and that’s it!
In order to join us you must go through a test of skill. You must successfully defeat another member in the guild in a 1v1 match, and you must have a prerequisite rank of 15+.

We currently have a guild launch website and we will eventually get Comms (ventrilo or TS3) once we have enough active members. Officer positions are available to those who show serious potential in skill and in the recruitment of skilled players.

For further information please contact Scarlet PvP, thank you.

I think it would be awesome, and I know we have all been thinking about this, WE NEED GUILD HALLS AND PLAYER HOUSING. It is just that simple. We should be able to buy lots of land (instance based), and have a mansion for the guild to just chill and train.

My Guild RLR, would love to meet up not only on teamspeak but at the guild lot/hall/mansion. A lot of our expenditure would go towards maybe having a garden, or a room for people to hangout.

Hey, my guild fell apart and I will be moving to Blackgate. My prime time personally is 4-9pm EST. I am a hardcore WvW necro (although I have a Warrior and Guardian), full ascended and also have a Commander tag. I’m not a pro commander but I have a tag in case a Commander needs a break or something of the sort happens. Are any guilds recruiting?

Super Adventure Box Storyline Prediction

in Super Adventure Box: Back to School

Spectrals.4682

Okay so Miyamoto is a famous game designer who designed parts of Zelda and Mario. The SAB is a tribute to the Anet devs childhood essentially and to the man that made the games they love. Who are the two main characters in SAB?

Princess Miya
& Moto

What else is suspicious about this coincidence?
As soon as the ‘princess’ gets captured, Moto comes out of nowhere and hands you a ‘STICK’ to help you on your adventures to save the princess. Seriously, a stick? And when you run out of lives it isn’t the evil boss that you have to pay, but Moto himself in what looks like hell.

On top of this, the main ingrediants for creating Princess Miya the mini consists of a wig, a dress a tiara and MOTO. Yes, moto to create the princess.

Could it not be more obvious that Moto is the last boss or at least the one behind it all?

Player Companions with personalities

in Suggestions

Posted by: Spectrals.4682

Spectrals.4682

The best way to make a player feel connected to the story line and immersed in the world is not just dynamic events and a world story, It must get more personal than that. What I am suggesting is a character companion. This can be done for every current profession.

  • Guardian:

Who are the guardian’s really guarding? I feel like every good storyline/ plot with a guardian role has a person dear to them that they vow the protect. Well in fact, Logan Thackeray couldn’t be a better example. His love and devotion for the Queen Jenna is insurmountable. Essentially what I am suggesting is in the personal story every profession has a person to fight with them (only in Tyria not in WvW or PvP).

  • Necromancer:

The necromancer by definition is one who uses magic to bring the dead back to life. Why not have a lost spirit of Ascalon or ghostly companion follow them throughout their journey’s.

  • Engineer:

If you have ever watched the series Fullmetal Alchemist or have ever seen a steam-punk anime, book etc. there is always ‘that repair girl’ or an apprentice.

  • Ranger:

Ranger’s have Pets, but the Pet’s don’t really do much do other than fight. Why not have a companion hunter/ huntress?

  • Elementalist:

Elementalists utilize the elements of nature. Thus, any sort of companion could be eligible.

  • Thief:

Thieves are perhaps the most interesting of professions in my opinion to have a companion. I’d personally like to see two types of character models for them; the Robin Hood ‘give to to the poor steal from the rich complex.’ And the rogue ’Trust’s no one but their character, has their own philosophies’ etc.

  • Warrior:

The warrior companion has a boundless potential for traits so I won’t bother specifying.

  • Mesmer:

A shape-shifting companion would be cool.

Furthermore, despite the profession differentials the type/ personality of their companion I believe should match up with their Charisma/ Dignity/ Ferocity ratio.

Attribute system is too complex

in Suggestions

Posted by: Spectrals.4682

Spectrals.4682

Simple. Go to the last major trait in each of the five lines and see if you like the XI or XII trait. Don’t worry about what you’re building for, but decide if you like it, or more appropriately if you have to have it.

For my Warrior I decided I needed both Defence XI and Tactics XI. I wanted a Tank and buffing Vitality and Toughness also seemed like a good path.

Then look at the second major traits and see if you feel like you need any of the VII-X traits. Then look at the first major traits and see if you like any of the I-VI traits. Finally look at all the minor traits and see if you like them.

For my Necromancer I was kind of interested in one of the first major traits of Death Magic, but I absolutely could not abide the first minor trait so I didn’t put anything into it. I then determined that in two places I just liked the minor traits more than another major trait so I brought two of the lines to 15 rather than bringing either to 20.

Don’t worry about the stats that it buffs. They’re useful, but not the end all be all of the lines. Most likely you’ll end up buffing the stats you’re interested in because the trait you like will be relevant to how you want to play and the stats being buffed will also go toward that direction of play.

I also recommend working with a builder, the one I have is out of date, but whatever
http://gw2.luna-atra.fr/skills_tool/

This game isn’t as grueling as all that. You don’t have to make the perfect build to survive, just do what you want.

Thanks for the advice, it is very helpful to find a place to start. I often get a bit to into perfectionism when it comes to my work or life so being the best player I can be bothers me. Thanks though,

Attribute system is too complex

in Suggestions

Posted by: Spectrals.4682

Spectrals.4682

When I first started playing Guild Wars 2 I found it to feel very natural, learn as you go, level as you like and meet new people along the way. However, the one aspect of the game that I’ve always had trouble with is the trait point allocation. Here are my quarrels with it:

1. There are too many Attributes to begin with- There are primary attributes, profession specific attributes, attributes affecting attributes. It’s overwhelming and over complex for no apparent reason other than to deter clarity. I’m not saying that attributes are unimportant, rather I’m pointing out the fact that there is just too much to consider and limited reasources on how to determine what you need.

2. There are a ridiculous amount of combinations- Ok cool, I picked my profession (say warrior for instance) and I want to play a damage roll but not glass cannon. Looks at Traits = Facepalm

Strength = Damage
Arms = Also Damage
Defence= Not getting killed in sacrafice of damage
Tactics= Useless
Discipline= Damage again

How am I suppose to determine which trait lines to pick when 3 out of the 5 all output towards the same thing? Is Critical hit chance more important than vulnerability? How does this Critical hit damage affect my burst damage? Are bleeds necessary? Should I use signets primarily, If I do what will I be sacrificing?

3. What affects what? – What weapon combination affects my build? Do I need vitality more than toughness? Do my runes support such and such aspect of the game? Am I lacking balance, or is balance unimportant?

Conclusion: It’s time consuming, and more like work than actual fun. There is little clarity, and third party resources are constantly contradicting each other with what works for what. Arenanet, don’t dumb it down but don’t over complicate it for the sake of being complicated.

Agreed. In all honesty the only thing I got out of this dragon bash was the wing skin. How did I get that? Not from the 400 gems i spent on chests, or the 100 other green chests that dropped but from repetitvely farming CoF to pay the 27g for it. Not very lively, and there wasn’t any other option that had a clear result other than just buying it off the tp.

I’ve leveled my warrior to 80, ran low level fractals, World v. World and all that good stuff. My usual rotation is pop Signet of Rage, Bulls charge (stun for 2 seconds), land thousand blades and hopefully crit. To be honest there are so many builds out there and so many combinations of utility skills that I just feel overwhelmed. Any tips on pvp/wvw builds and rotations for Warriors, or just a basic overview on the whole of it?

If anything Arenanet will sell mounts via the gems in order to pay for server costs and such. I’ve seen of a game where mounts were trappable and man did everyone want them! It would be an alternate way of gaining revenue for the company, and a luxery for those who want these types of things.
