Guild Wars 2

Personally, I enjoyed and still enjoy Verdant Brink and Auric Basin. I think that those maps offer a pretty unique and interesting approach to map-design, with the vertical design and depth. The mobs are a bit tough though, but then again, those maps aren’t exactly supposed to be casual, pleasant places. They are a wild jungle full of deadly creatures and dragon minions where everyone and everything is out to get you, so I don’t really mind them much. I just learned to deal with them after a while. Though I admit that being constantly killed by mobs at start was a bit annoying. xD

Tangled Depths I have mixed feeling. Everything from above stands for this map as well, but the layout and design of the map might be a bit over-the-top in my opinion. The map is pretty confusing at start, and needlessly complicated and the mobs in lanes are pretty tightly packed, especially the Chak. But once you get the hang of everything, it’s alright. Not exactly the best map for soloing but super fun to do in zergs.

I don’t personally enjoy Dragon’s Stand because it feels like the map is there purely for the meta event and the limited time I got left to spend there is also off-putting.

But then again, I also think that the PoF map we got to see is also pretty cool and I hope that the rest of them are also good.

All in all, I’m glad that the game has such a nice variety of map designs. If PoF finds a nice balance between the core Tyria and HoT maps, then I’m sure that it will be quite a success.

I took the priory choice, since I’m interested in what will happen to me now that I’ve used the ancient artefact. It’d be stupid to give it to shady people and not to priory.

Hi, I’m a new player and I am really amazed by this great thread and am really happy to see that this community is so nice. If anyone could spare a celestial/black abyss dye, I’d be really grateful.

Uruk Deathclaw, EU PS.

Thanks mate, that really helped me!

I’d really like the store to sell weapons that match their respective outfit, like sentinel weapons set for sentinel outfit etc.

It felt pretty sudden and not epic at all. If she had to die, she should have died in a more epic way, rather than being killed by a random mordrem.

So do I also need to max out herald in order to get Glint?

Thanks btw!

Thanks a lot mate!

Btw, I can’t find Glint stance, do I have to unlock it or something?

I personally think that the current amount is fine. It’s the amount of mastery XP needed with only one option of obtaining it I have a beef with.

Hi guys, I’m also new and would just like to ask a few questions:

1) What is the best build for soloing?

2) Which stances are best for soloing?

3) Which weapons are best for soloing?

4) Same questions for group content.

Thanks!

Yes you can, I bought HoT recently and boosted a revenant.

I think it would be nice to have options to do certain acrobatic stuff with the glider while in the air. Also, I’d love to see some cool elder dragon wings skin.

Im quite new at this game (Bought it few days ago), so I might not be experienced enough to say a lot about HoT, but to me, HoT is pretty fun and engaging at the moment. I like the land layout I like the story (a bit short thought) and masteries are fun. I love the challenge that mobs provide and the maze-like maps are also quite cool as they make me feel like I’m actually exploring dangerous places and not having someone hold me by my hand showing me around. Events are pretty interesting as well. Gliding is super awesome, although until I get that fifth gliding mastery, I will be a bit angry because that endurance thing on it is super annoying.

The things I don’t like about HoT is that there seem to be no quests in those zones like there are in the rest of the world and that I can’t seem to get mastery XP from anything but the events and mini-games, is kind of a bummer. Luckily, I heard that they must only be grinded once, so it’s not that big of a deal. Also, I personally think that because of lack of leveling options, the amount of XP needed to get all masteries is a bit too high. I wouldn’t mind the grind if there were more options on how to obtain mastery XP, but with only having one way to get them, I can’t say it’s much fun. Grind is only good for me if there are multiple options of doing it.

So in general HoT is pretty fun and interesting to play for me, but it does have a few flaws, which I hope will be absent in the next expansion. I’m generally satisfied with what I’ve bought, and even if it was a bit excessively expensive.

P.S Sry if this is a wrong place to say this, this is my first post.
