Guild Wars 2

Dang, I must have done something wrong then to get to 80 with only 48% of the world map completed (and 400 armorsmithing, 210 leatherworking). I think I left my story quest hanging at the lvl 60 one…. I should do some of that tomorrow I think.
Never once hit up an instance until after 80 also…. but from what I’m now seeing of those the exp for completing a dungeon is flippin huge. One guy did the CoF exp mode with us 4 times and went from 75 to 80.

I think it’s all paced right. Y’all just have to get out there and check stuff out. The way I got to 80 so fast was by not even worrying about it.
I didn’t sit in front of the computer day and night, either. I have a full time job and a wife + 3 kids that (no matter WHAT she says) I take care of.

Anything +health related is increased.
This includes both the burst heal and any ticks you get or give to others.
My banners do roughly 32.5k overall healing to myself and group members with all +healing gear on (working on more exotics this week for this). Without the gear on the banners are doing only like 19k healing.

I doubt many (if any) will get banned, but they will probably fix it so you can’t avoid large chunks of mobs.

Yep, that right there. A wall you can’t see will be slapped up before you know it and all will be right with the world.

I had this happen to me too and no one in my guild could clear it up.

Heck I even took the bloodlust and the other sigil off of my weps and replaced the sigils with “+30% chance to heal others on hit” and STILL get a bloodlust buff that is stacking on kills, lol.

Mmmmm, I dunno.
I have banners that currently heal for 32.5k for their duration and I think that’s pretty darn good. I still have to craft 3 more exotic Cleric pieces yet… and upgrade my crappy Green lvl80 trinkets, too.
Even if it’s just me doing support in a dungeon no one’s dying, so I think the Healing stat is doing it’s job just fine XD.

The severe down side in relation to bows that I know of is that there are only 2 extras for them (1 for range, the other for +10% damage to mobs on fire) unless I’ve missed some.

The only real way I’ve been able to justify staying at a distance is that I have banner healing and between picking up the one banner for a small burst heal and laying out the others (32.5k health regen total so far, but I’m working on getting that higher) I throw down the fire burst and explosive arrows and a little more pew pew. I felt bad until I sprang for an exotic bow from the TB.
Maybe someone else has figured out a really good dps way. I only use ranged for support-damage while keeping ppl alive.

Overall unless they add more extras to get I know the bow is pretty lacking. Maybe if they just put a -20% CD on the bow skills that’d help a lot… Or others that mirror the GS perks that you can get. Rifles I’m not too sure about.
There’s SO many options with warriors that I still have a lot to check out XD.

I feel ya.
I run a support with banner heals (the banner icons show total healing topping 32.5k hp regen with only 3 exotics on**working on crafting a full set**). The rest is yellow +healing gear. +30% chance to heal others on all my weps (axe/mace and bow).

30 def, 30 tactics and 10 in power for the heck of it. All banner related except for the 2 auto shouts for Shake it Off and the no damage one (I forget what it is atm) at 25% health.

Almost EVERY other warrior I’ve seen so far has been a signet-wearer, which is okay I guess as long as they’re staying off their backs more often than not. It’d be really cool to get someone with healing shouts to go with my banners, though.
