Guild Wars 2

Asura ranger here too!

I may be small, but my big beasts protect me!

Love that feeling, having a small character protected by his huge animal bodyguards! I even made him the smallest size lol

Hello everyone!

I write here to ask a question about the guardian’s shield of courage skill during first BWE.

In the description, it says it “blocks attacks for you and your allies”.

When I used it though, it seemed only the aegis granted by the shield was blocking attacks, and when I don’t have aegis anymore, I could get hit by mobs while my shield of courage was active.

Is it supposed to really blocks attacks of all kind, or only projectiles? Or enemies hitting you from at close range, inside of your shield, can hurt you, going through the protection?

Thank you very much everyone, good bye and have fun!

-Servers stability was awesomly fine! o/ I had a few lags at some time but not a big deal, it disappeared quite quickly. Maybe we need to be more in order to give them a real challenge >:D

-I… don’t have any bug to notice here as everything went quite fine with what we had to do. It might be because of the lag but the skill “rite of the great dwarf” had an issue once that disappeared : When I cast it, the effect take place before I finish the cast and disappears right after the cast x)

-About the revenant? I thought it was OP when I saw I could heal twice with the 6 skill, one per legend, but the enemies also put a good challenge when packed xD I wonder now how the other classes will compensate in term of resistance, having only one healing skill while the revenant has 2! It was very nice and dynamic to switch between legends to have access to our second healing skill!
He’s got only middle HP pool but this second healing spell can really make him as tough as a warrior. Heavy armor profession here guys! XD
The resistance trait which grants resistance for each legendary demon skill used is very original as I’m not cleaning conditions this time, but I’m compensating by resisting to them! It’s not cleanse, but it has also a strong effect!

-I can’t wait to see more adventures, the concept is nice, it adds some new things to do! It reminds me of the challenge missions of Guild Wars 1, but in a more accessible way, also easier and with rewards according to the challenge it puts. I could never go further than 50 vines burned though, I don’t know if the rewards are higher when we burn 100 or more.

-Loved the new music.

-Nice to see the new defiance system, can’t wait to see other bosses to see how well it will be exploited! ^^ The wyvern were stunned when we broke her bar, but I heard that the effect of the break bar would depend of the boss fought, so I’m curious to see the next effects when the extension is out! Nice idea!

-The wyvern itself was quite easy indeed, and seemed to be the good old boss with many HP though her skills added some fun! Gliding to get back to the battle after being bumped by the wings was nice!

-The events available in the map looked more like what we had in the low level maps (I mean from 1-15 maps to Orrian ones) more than what we had in Silverwastes or Dry top. I mean that currently, there was no phases like those two maps. Though it might just be because this is a stress test.

-I only tryed the glider with the master system so I don’t have very much to say about it. What I can say is that I liked seeing mastery orbs on the maps. Collecting them by exploring the map might be a funny thing!

To conclude : Thanks for the invitation. I had a lot of fun with everything. Musics, revenant, looking at the masteries etc… There is many fun ideas, keep up the good work!

Hello everyone!

I don’t know if this is the best place to post this, but as it deals about an aspect of the new living story episode, I hope I’m posting it in the right session!

From all the soundtracks of the 7th episode, now available on the arena net’s soundcloud, I found that one was missing. Or it isn’t released yet?

It’s the theme during " meeting the asura " that plays when you’re detected by the asuras! It’s indeed a different music from the one called " Meeting The Asura".
There is also a music that plays during the fight against Vorrp, when he and his crews detect you. A specific music only appearing during that specific fight is playing, but in the released tracks on soundcloud, it does not appear.
Are those soundtracks going to be released or are they missing?

(And to be honest, this was a great music for me! )

Thank you for your answer and sorry if I’m being unpatient!

Best regards,

Telos.

I understand. Thank you for your answer

Merry christmas to you all! This post might not bring new ideas but a question : I’ve always wondered why racial skills were deliberatly less powerful than class skills although they were made to add some variations to the build, to be here because they was not double classing system.

Wouldn’t it be good to up a little bit the racial skills or even adding new ones, to create variations in skills types which are used and to builds?
