I guess starting your own group for level 100 requires you to unlock it first and that’s the problem ^^

It happened a few times when I joined a group that was advertising to do a high level fractal, that they were hoping someone would join who can select it. And it also happened that our party of 5 people was standing at the settings station and nobody had the required personal fractal level to actually start the fractal that was stated in LFG.

What Sister said is so true about the psychology of pugs, I have to quote her:

…more specifically, each person in the group is hoping the other 4 are flawless robots.

This is not about opening a level 100 fractal, the OP already can. This is for challenge mote.

In most cases where you want to open a lever higher than your own personal reward level, just put it in LFG or ask in map chat. More often than not someone is willing to join to open the instance then leave.

Rangers aren’t there for their own DPS. Rangers are there for Spotter, Frost Spirit, and Grace of the Land.

You missed the point a bit. This thread is not about druid.

2/3 ain’t bad.

It’s not even 2/3, its 0/3
Druids are the ones who brings the buffs. Condi rangers bring only damage, occasionally sun spirit if the druid for the sub doesnt have it

The other problem that holds VB meta back is that it requires quite a few masteries . This is particular problematic since number of players who are doing HoT metas are fairly new.

Granted the number of points needed isnt high if you level it up optimally, but what new player does that without researching exactly what is needed for what.

I’m almost certain the drop rates got stealth nerfed. I typically get about 4-6 rubies (from nodes only) total after mining everything on 2 toons. This isnt anecdotal either, i farmed every day for about 6 weeks, though I’ve stopped about 2 weeks ago.

Like I showed. Based on the drop rate documented in the wiki for BLC, the large scale aggregate average is 20 keys per ticket. At bulk price for keys that’s 1680 gems so $21€. Since new skins go on sale of one ticket, that’s probably the targeted price point.

ANet has never said what the drop rate is. The only known research I’ve seen on it suggests its much closer to 30 keys for one ticket, not 20. (It says 32% chance of dropping. 20 keys to get 10 scraps is 50%).

Black lion chest drop rate

When you factor in the drop rates of the full ticket, it adds up to approximately 20 keys average

There are also problems with people running unhelpful builds and in some cases being detrimental (yes i know other classes can too, but it for me at least is most common with rangers/necros).

Most frequent encounters for me personally are condi necros camping scepter with zero cleave or fearing with staff #5 whenever off CD, rangers not managing pets and messing with aggro, camping LB at max range using KB off CD.

It has gotten better but newer players pick these classes because of what they think the class’ play styles will be based on class name and description.

In Plains of Ashford (1-15 Charr map), you sometimes get lv31 mobs spawning from the presents, no class regardless of how tanky you’re built is going to survive those.

She tried exiting and entering a new instance several times but continued to have the same problem. I guess she’s just unlucky =/

This is not a rant about the jumping puzzle being too hard for those thatare just going to jump the gun and assume that.

My sister spent several hours doing this jump, and was saying that she couldnt seem to get into the room with the chest (last jump into the clock face) even though she landed squarely on the gap. To confirm this, I attempt the jumping puzzle on her account.

5 times, I landed onto the gap on the clock face, got ported into the room and was ported back out before I could move closer to the chest. We are certain we were in the room as the achievement was compeleted, and we could see the chest. My account had no such problems, so just wondering if this has happend to anyone else.

Its foolish for people to think ‘some rich person can just buy a legendary weapon with gold from selling gems’.

- The more popular precursors are are being sold for 150g +, so lets assume a legendary weapon is on sale for 500g (highly underpriced imo).
- Selling 100 gems currently nets about 30-35s, but we’ll assume 35s
- You would have to sell roughly 143 000 gems to generate 500g
- 143 000 gems = approximately $1800 US

Yup, some people are totally going to dish out $1800 for a weapon skin

The karma boosters work, the bonus karma doesnt get added to the event rewards shown on your screen, but it gets added passively.

@everyone complaining about the click to move in GW1, there was an option to turn it off.

Its ridiculous how some of you guys say that it would ruin the game, its not like adding click to move is going to stop you from using WASD. I personally would prefer to have it added, but there are more pressing issues that I’d rather have fixed first.
