Guild Wars 2

Sorry, can’t do “100 words or less”:

General criticism:
Not a fan of ammunition/skill charges being restricted to PoF builds. If you invent something new like that, implement it into previous content as well!

My Guardian on live has skill charges right now, or did you mean something else?

a fresh level 80 has enough to skill everything except the elite spec (in your case druid). You have to go do hero points to get the points needed.

As you have not played before I would advise you level at least one character from scratch.

How the bloody 4377 do you think one solo character with exotic armor only can defeat a boss and 20 adds? Are you kidding me. That’s the same problem I had with HOT. I solo this game. None of my friends play anymore. So I’m supposed to go into story mode with NPCs that die instantly and fight my way through and then go further in with no NPC helpers at all? Tune it down and up the rewards or most will never do the story modes at all. And where’s the dragon hunter’s bow.

I bought Path of Fire because of the open world. I doubt very much based on this that I will do the story mode at all.

And before you all criticize, I have a high level dragon hunter that does high level fractals. In fact, every one of my characters is level 80, medium to high level fractals. Solo story mode in these expansions is a pain in the kitten terrible rewards and dying every 2 minutes because you are one again 20 adds and a boss is ridiculous.

So I’m asking the devs to tune it down on the story mode content. Some of us don’t have a merry band of four/five that we can take into story mode.

I’m a VERY casual player, haven’t even finished HoT story yet, don’t do fractals or dungeons and had no problem with both Chronomancer and Dragonhunter.

I was just looking at my Ranger in game and realized that I have 352 unspent hero ponts. Is this going to have any benefit entering the new expansion in September? Soulbeast seems cool along with the other new specializations we have to look forward to … I have tons on my Beserker and Reaper also. Any word from Anet on this?

Cheers

have you unlocked the druid spec yet? if not you’ll have to have that unlocked first because it’s a prerequisite to unlocking the next elite spec in this case soulbeast.

That’s actually not the case. You can buy PoF without having bought HoT and get access to the new elite specs in PoF.

Hearts and Minds, one of the jets shot me out of the instance… wtf?

Just happened to me too

After seven tries I finally made it past the helix crashes only to run right into the next bug.
I was fighting Mordremoth and all was well, when I heard “protect yourself or take to the skies” I decide to glide to safety… boy what a mistake. The updraft I chose shot me right out of the instance. I saw the “turn back now” warning for a split second and poof I was out. No chance to do anything.

I take to the forums and what do I find? This and other bugs have been plagueing this fight for two years. How is that even remotely ok? I really enjoy GW2 but the end of the HoT story is so buggy it’s not even funny.

Same issue – helix, first-third vine wall. Maybe an issue with 64 bit client?

EDIT: SOLVED – Run in ‘Fullscreen’ at correct resolution, not ‘Windowed Fullscreen’.

As me and others have posted, this “fix” sadly doesn’t work for everyone. Glad you made it through though!

EDIT: I finally made it through, after seven tries. Since I didn’t change any settings, I’d say it was sheer luck.

I’ve set my game to best performance, best visuals, automatic, windowed and fullscreen. Doesn’t matter, the game always crashes on the helix. The time is always different though.

Update: tried to turn to full screen and lower settings. Same problem. At some point up the helix the game just crashes.

Happened twice for me now. It’s my first time doing the story so it’s extra frustrating. Hope this gets fixed soon.
