Guild Wars 2

Character name: Annie Odair
Number: I choose 29 !

To those in EU: have fun!

I’ll take 79 in the raffle, please
IGN: Maggie Rhee

Always sad about US/EU only in-game events
Still, I know it can’t be help and I hope everyone has a great time anyway
As for the raffle… I’ll take 64 – Maggie Rhee

Wish I was EU so I could participate in the rest of the festivities

Oh well… #10 in the raffle, please!

First thing that came to mind as I was reading through this thread was “This kinda sounds like the Zaishen Challenge Quests from GW1”

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Zaishen_Challenge_Quest

If ANet introduced a system for GW2 similar to that, I’d totally be on board

Can I have #419 for the raffle?

So I was exploring Metrica Province on my character Caitlin Roe, and from there, zoned into Brisban Wildlands, where the client froze and I had to close it. Once I closed the client, I opened it again, logged in, and now it shows that my character has 0% map completion when I know it’s actually around 63%. If I try to log on to Caitlin Roe, the loading screen for Brisban appears, but freezes shortly after. However, if I try to log into any of my other characters, it loads fine and it doesn’t freeze or anything. I’ve already tried the ‘-prefreset’ command, but that didn’t fix the problem. Can someone help me fix this so that I can actually log onto my character?

Hello, I am interested in getting the achievements as well, please add me too.

Character name: Scarlet Johandottir

that name made me laugh haha

i’d like to join the guild too, name is Avellannia

my sylvari uses female #3

9/10 i like how it sounds, but i dont watch GoT haha

my sylvari’s name is Avellannia
avellana is latin for hazelnut, but that was taken, so i just threw in an extra n and i.

7/10, her eyes are nice, but her nose is too flat and her skin is a little too pale

this is my first character, Caitlin Roe, an elementalist
she’s also in the order of whispers, if you couldn’t tell ;D
(first two are bad quality, last one is high quality)

My current spec is such that power > precision, also due to the fury uptime as well.
I haven’t really done much with my elementalist guild, albeit Fort Aspenwood imo is like the unofficial ele server
Sure I’ll invite you :P. Remind me in game by mail xD
I like where I am at T2 atm, and we fight losers of T1 all the time anyways.

Just run the same setup and go for berzerker weapons. Sometimes I swap out my knights weapons for berzerker to get ~50% critical damage and ~50% crit chance (with fury on). My attack power can go up to 3800 depending on might, stacks, etc, so I can still burst pretty high if I sacrifice some toughness.

To your arguement on glass cannon: Glass cannons are limited to only so many people though, you tend to short change yourself when fighting many good opponents at once. Sure you can burst someone down in a 1v1 situation using a more GC orientation, but my perspective is surviving any situation, and preparing for the worst case scenario is more important. Plus building more tanky allows you to prepare burst options much readily – aka building might using fire aura, combo stacks, and fiery great sword bursting.

I am immobilized in that video all the time, its just that I specced anti-immobilization in that video by sacrifcing swiftness and DPS. That and I am also abusing LoS and evasion very heavily as well

I guess whatever makes you happy:]. Personally I like going all +stats, b/c I like being well rounded. Healing power, vitality, and condition damage are all still useful stats to have on you.

The current build in use is still optimal 0/10/0/30/30 for any weaponset, and in most scenarios. I opted to go for a 0/0/10/30/30 or a 0/0/20/20/30 spec since I really like the 33% reduce CC effect trait, and the free armor of earth at 50% HP trait. The only downside is no perma swiftness and fury, but I’ve gotten accustomed to controlling fury on attunement swap to burst, and chaining swiftness by using staff out of combat / using pots. It takes alot more skill to use this spec correctly since no perma swiftness is a bummer, and having less swiftness can get you killed.

On my latest video episode 12 I used this spec I made:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcprP81h4dk
Setup
20 Earth -> 50% Armor of earth trait, 33% reduce CC trait
20 Water -> 50% fall damage reduction, Cantrips provide vigor and HP reg
30 arcana -> Evasive arcana, Arcana five and six
Superior sharpening stones, Lemongrass poultry
2x superior rune monk, 2x superior rune water, 2x superior rune melandru

^This is my secret spec I use but I haven’t been on much and I’ve already had my fun with it so I’ll share it with you guys. Its far superior to the 0/10/0/30/30 at its full potential (example in episode 12). Plus its an extremely strong counter to confusion mesmers anyways, and they are kind of OP atm (mesmers are kind of a joke using this setup too :P).

I also now actually think about my attunements much more now using this spec, i.e. earth for protection when I expect upcoming damage, staying on water as short as possible, staying on air as short as possible to upkeep swiftness, staying on fire whenever available.

I feel like doing videeo game reviews in the future and making a gaming blog that I never got around to doing, what do you guys think? :S. Also going to teach myself programming in various languages, starting with C, and maybe make some user guides in the future as well. Can’t decide on whether I should make future video content more depth vs. breath either.
Debating on what I should do with future content on youtube, any suggestions? :P
I feel like I’m just posting the same stuff over and over again, lol.
Starcraft 2 is so much fun !

could the build in the video you posted in pve? that’s mainly what i play and i want a build that would allow me to solo everything(like champions, etc.). are you using knight armor and daggers? also, what infusions do you put on your ascended accessories?

i recently bought the superior sigil of battle for my main dagger and while in combat, noticed that my might was not increasing at all when i switched attunements(except for fire of course). i was thinking that they may have changed this during a patch, so what would you suggest i put on my main dagger to replace that? how do you keep your might at 25 stacks? last question, what breathing apparatus do you use?

im on a US overflow doing the event. we need more people, join me! (Caitlin Roe)

Guild mate made 300 gold from Dusk. I lost 11 silver in repairs with no chest rewards. GG, seems fair.

same thing with me, hopefully they fix this in some way because this is just ridiculous.

same here, i spent about 2 to 3 hours on this event, but right at the end GW2 decides to crash on me. by the time i had logged in and got to my same overflow server, the chest was gone and i was pissed.
