C#\Javascript I’ll chip in anywhere I can!

Strange thing happening… The game freezes on the second screenshot I take during any session. Additionally, when taking the first screenshot – despite pressing print screen only once – two exact copies of the screenshot are saved to the folder.

The game does not error out, it just stops rendering (but continues to play sounds). Nothing but closing it from task manager ends this behavior.

I’m running Windows 8, on the latest ATI Beta Drivers (13.2), and the screenshots folder is in the default location (It would be nice to know if this can be changed; as I have strange permission issues on this drive once in awhile despite being a full administrator).

Thanks

Just looking for opinions on which Profession has the most fluid gameplay. Specifically, which one feels the most fast-paced without too many movement interruptions or disruptive animations.

I like to keep moving and attacking as fast as possible in any game I play – really makes combat feel more alive and fun in my opinion.

Thanks for the advice guys! I have an Exotic Rampger’s set for future Condition builds… and after all your replies I think I’m going to build a Berserker’s set and a Cleric’s/Zho’s set.

Thanks Daegalus for the build advice, I’m going to try this out. PS The Zho set is really cheap on the TP right now… must be people selling it from the rewards of the Event yesterday.

There’s something to all the Clerics/healing + defense stat + power buffing. Could any of you suggesting this type of gear setup provide an example of a Trait/Utility setup to support it?

Thanks for the replies all.

Lately I’ve been running a bursty build with Rifle / Nades / ToolKit / Rifle Turret (30/20/0/0/20) and enjoying it quite a bit. I swap out Rifle Turret for Elixir Gun during dungeons.

I know this kind of build is complemented best by a Berserker’s set. But I did want to try being more defensive, supportive and well rounded. Maybe I need to consider another build with a Power/Vit/Tough gear setup.

For PvE, Dungeons, and WvW which set (which stat distribution) would you pick?

Exotics can be pretty expensive and I’m trying to pick a gear set and build that will be well rounded in most situations.

Thanks for the responses! I’m going to try a few of these build suggestions.

Casia – I do plan on making a berserker set, but right now I just don’t have the gold for it – so I need to make do for the time being. I will definitely try Berserker-aimed builds ASAP though.

Have a build in mind Maimakterion? Which runes of condition duration?

Hey all,

If you had a full set of exotic Rampagers (Precision/Condition/Power) gear (All armor, trinkets, pistols/shield) with Runes of the Adventurer – what kind of builds would you come up with to maximize on it?

I made this set and was running p/p + elixirs for awhile but with such a non-burst “glass canon” set of gear I’m having trouble in WvW and frankly in some parts of Orr. So while I farm to be able to attain other sets of gear (a defensive set and probably a full berserker set) – what can I do to make full use of this set?

Thanks!

I’m in this boat too, stuck at 4/5 despite having done everything! Hopefully this gets fixed

Hey guys,

Just looking for your opinion on what gear (stat distribution) + build would provide the most well rounded balance of survivability and damage output. I’ve seen a lot of builds that heavily focus on one or the other, but not too many that hits a real balance.

This build would be primarily for soloing in Orr at 80 (for example), and for some WvW as well.
