Mixing stats

in Engineer

Posted by: Statictary.5206

Statictary.5206

I’m running an engineer with berserker stats. Rifle and some accessories are ascended, rest exotic.

I recently figured that it’d be probably better to change my stats to something with defense, like valkyrie.
Especially for WVW and some big world bosses, who you can’t critically damage.

My problem is now that it’s enormously time consuming to get the ascended parts.

So one question is, will there be maybe a way to change the armor stats like you can with the legendary weapons? With gems or a big stack of gold? I’m not talking about legendary armor, which should be king of expenditure of time. It’s acquisition idea just doesn’t coincide with my style of play.

The other question is, if it’s a good idea to run with a 6 part exotic valkyrie armor set and an ascended berserker rifle and berserker accessories some exo, some asco.
Simply asked, is mixing stats useful on the field of battle or would I waste some precious fire power doing so?

The pix kinda remind me of 1998’s Godzilla from New York.

That’s fantastic, and really gets me excited for when/if they ever do any major underwater bosses. I know not everyone is crazy about the underwater mechanics, but scary things just look all the more menacing and sinister underwater.

What? Isnt the Jelly Beast from the Aquatic ruins enough for you?

Ascended berserker rifle in white?

in Players Helping Players

Statictary.5206

Lets say I want berserker stats on a rifle,
but I dislike the red coloring on it.
I’d maybe prefer white.

So is it possible to craft myself
an ascended berserker rifle in red and
an ascended version in white
to combine both with a transmutation crystal
to get a white berserking rifle that is ascended?

Lone Panda
I personally cant give this name a too high rating. Reminds me too much of chinese sleaze, had some bad experience with such.
I’d also need little more info about this engineer of yours.
Are his favo clothing colors for example black and white?
Did he have the luck to find those expensive dyes or did he accumulate enough gold coins to purchase them?
For now Lone Panda gets from me 5/10

My engineer is called
Dirty Harry Goox
and he is simply looking for liberty aka freedom.

Recolor ascended weapons

in Suggestions

Posted by: Statictary.5206

Statictary.5206

Same ascended weapon models with different colors are available.
I assume many red armed people out there, including me, not yet, but hopefully soon.
Since I like the ascended pistol skin and not the berserker bordeaux I would spend gems in the store for a way to choose a different color.

Im more than sure that some people already pleaded for a way to recolor their weapons in the past. But I dont know how easy that would be to implement. Although with the ascended weapons I dont see such a problem, or am I wrong?

I want to have the stats that I think are most usefull for me and a color that gives me the shining. Ive just seen all the available colors on greatswords, but a white shiny pistol or two would be something that I like.

I believe that the Super Adventure Box will be granted a permanent stay once all worlds have been created. But who knows when that will be.

As for seasonal occasions like halloween or winter, they could really bring back the previous content like the clocktower or the wintersday JP additionally to some new ideas.
Would be a shame to have this kinda stuff deleted for good.
New players will get stuff thats new new new and players like me can revisit some good ol’ times.

So assuming they’ll launch the patch from there it will take some 5 – 15 hours until we could get patched from this moment.
For my GMT + 2 this aint looking too bright. I’ll have to wait until my tomorrow arrives to enjoy it.

Wow, Im really having too much time since Im thinking about timezones and such. But well, what else can you do at work. (I’ll drive home in 10min from now on btw.)

5000 Achievement Points = 400 Gems

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Statictary.5206

Statictary.5206

Soon I’ll reach the 5k AP mark. I was thinking what to do with those 400 gems.
Bank or inventory space I dont need. Also none of those skins buyable for gems I like.

So my best idea so far was spending 450 gems on 5 black lion keys to get black lion claim tickets or scraps. The BL weapon specialist has some weapon skins that look appealing to me. Now Im pretty sure the drop rate of those aint the highest, but how many black lion claim ticket scraps can drop from one BL chest?
Can I gather enough stuff from 5 BL Chests to get a skin from the BL weapon specialist or is this lottery level likeliness?

Don’t believe everything you see, the 11k is probably real, but the other numbers simply aren’t.

You get golden in some way when you bank 200 gold.
Why not more titles that you can achieve the more you bank.
Keep it even simple and just add a number after Golden on every 200er step like:
Golden 400
Golden 11000
Golden 310200
Would be a nice way to show off, if you are that type of player. Just expect no sympathy from other players if you decide to do so.

I see, get T6 Materials for laurels.
But there is nothing that I’d like to craft at the moment. Maybe in the future.
If my infos are correct we will be able to craft till level 500 to create ascended armor. If you’ll need T6 mats for them then thats a good idea…
or will they invent some T7 mats?

Selling 300 unidentified dyes for a total sum of 66 gold [if one sells for 22].
Thats a good load of money. But I am more the gambling type, so I’d open them all to see if luck is still a skill. I’d just need for example 2 celestials and 2 abysses to turn that into a good deal. 1 abyss I’d use then to black my char up.

One hundred fifty of those green shrubs I can call my own,
but what shall I do with them?

I was thinking on spending them on ascended accessories. An amulet and rings I already have.
But wouldnt it be better to join a bigger guild to acquire ascended accessories via those guild activities?

So what else could I do with them?
Maybe trade for 300 unidentified dyes?
If I get lucky, I’ll get some high valued ones;
or how are the chances for this to happen?
I remember I bought 40 unidentified dyes, but this was months ago. I got celestial and abyss out of that. A good deal for me and a bad deal for a friend. Because after he heard how I raised my gold he wanted the same for him. He purchased 100 unidentified dyes. But nothing too valuable popped out then.

Any other usefull ideas?

Ascended Ring - usefulness

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Statictary.5206

Statictary.5206

I received an ascended ring from the a daily chest in the frax.

The name is Ettinband –
Stats:Toughness/Power/Precision.
But I use the Rampager Gear –
Stats:Precision/Power/Condition Damage.

So stat-wise not my kinda thing.
What are now my options with that ring? Salvage or keep it for an 2nd char?
I have a mesmer currently level 40, somewhen in the future he should be able to put on such a ring. But are those Ettinband stats usefull for a mesmer? Or is this again a preference thing?
What are the most usefull stat combinations for a mesmer?

Loading Screen bores me

As for the suggestion: Why not add hints and/or pieces of lore about the area in the loading screen?

Like they did in Battlefield Vietnam.
I also know people that learnt most about a game just from those loading screen hints, I guess they were talking about Baldur’s Gate in this case.

But inputting them hints into the game would also save time and nerves. People would less often ask the same questions over and over, the forums would be less flooded with questions like “Why did my items disappear from my inventory? Deposit all collectibles, you know…”

It would be nice if we could implement our own pictures to appear when changing the map. The loading screen picture of Lion’s Arch I see most often.
Maybe if this one Arenanet employee who is responsible for drawing those pieces of art would create some more of them, so the loading screen pictures could rotate once in a while. Or has this Arenanet department a bigger staff?
I can believe that they have something better to do, but what? Add more of those little icons for the weapons, armors, items…etc.? If they are too busy with that, or something totally else…then well…enlighten me if you can.

It would be also kinda nice to see the screenshots I made in the game showing up there instead.
