Guild Wars 2

aspirine.6852:

Wasnt there some teasing of an Elona area somewhere. Could be more living story, but expansion to Elona would make more sense.

If you mean the unconfirmed image supposedly leaked recently, that was the crystal desert, it had the name of a Prophecies outpost in the corner. So if genuine, that would most likely be the next destination for season 3 after the ring of fire. It’s not Elona though, although it is possible we’d see a few descendants of Vabbian refugees there, who escaped to Tyria. If that shot is genuine though, my guess is the story there will focus on the Forgotten, hence the recycled HoT assets from Auric Basin/Gilded Hollow in the screenshot.

UnbentMars.9126:

Easy fix – Deep Sea Dragon surfaces near Cantha and attacks. Boom, no need to change the Dragons plot, but still gives us Cantha

Even better, have everything going along as normal in Tyria with the LW plot, and then suddenly – Taimi informs everyone that she’s detecting a huge surge of magic originating far, far to the south, across the ocean. The Deep Sea Dragon has been slain.

Then shortly after that bombshell, Anet drop the next expansion teaser, with an armada of invading ships appearing across the now safe seas.

Just don’t do what woodenpotatoes did on stream that one time when he crafted a great monkey statue out of the backpack he’d just stuck a queen bee into…

With the jewel ones, you stick them in an exotic backpack like the great monkey one. It’s the smallest possible reduction in overall stats from asc.

OMG thanks for this tip. I’ll be saving a backup copy of it for any time I need to reinstall as I have exactly the same problem with the 64bit client randomly freezing up.

Given how much of it was in large scale open world events, I think the best way of implementing it is going to be in the manner they already implemented a couple of aspects of S1 – via Fractals. We could see them rework the existing Season 1 content into a battle of Lion’s Arch fractal, a Marionette Fractal, etc. – and then there could be an option in dialogue with Dessa to play a specific chain of these, in order. Possibly with interludes of the original story instances which accompanied some of these events.

Yeah, I keep circle strafing with my autoattack on, if I had a mouse I could map my attacks to like many of my friends use, it’d be easier, but dodging him when in the ring uses 100% of both my hands. I have 3 fingers free for casting and I can miss dodges if I move those off the 1-3 keys. So far I’ve found signet of spite and my autoattack can knock him down by about 25% of his health. Stealth skills aren’t an option as a necro, sadly.

So far I’ve tried all my ranged weapons, and axe seems the most effective to spam.
Minion builds were the first I discounted due to them being instakilled.
Wells just don’t work effectively, he’s never taken damage form me in a well build.
High damage condition builds, I’ve tried my best, but the only things which seem to hurt him are signet of spite and my autoattack.
I can strafe him for ages, but at about half health he always brings up about his third ring of fire, and ends up using a huge fireball that my dodge does nothing to block and kills me instantly.
