Guild Wars 2

Whenever I look over the tedious gathering achievements you need to go through and all of the items you need to craft, my response is always somewhere along the lines of, “this is freaking ridiculous”. Even Finite Result seems like way too much just because of Ball of Dark Energy. I’ve only crafting two Ascended items, and it’s asking me to salvage one.

I’m also only on Fractals mission #9. I’m so far away from it that even dreaming about having Ad Infinitum is ridiculously unrealistic.

I don’t want to pay full-price for anything if I don’t have to.

I’ve been using Blood Reckoning, Signet of Might, For Great Justice, Shattering Blow, and Signet of Rage.

I have Zojja’s Greatsword, full Berserker armor (only 1 is Ascended so far, the rest are Exotic), and a mix of berserker and solider for my accessories (all Ascended). I have an Exotic Axe and an Exotic Mace in my inventory, but I usually just have an Exotic Bow in my second weapon slot in case I need ranged attacks.

I think I have Superior Runes of Strength on all of my armor, but I can’t check because I’m not at home right now.

I have not used any infusion slot because all I have are a handful of Agony Infusions, but I’m only on the 9th fractals mission, so it’s not like I have any reason to use them.

My Specializations are Strength, Tactics, and Berserker.

The only time I play with other people is when they just happen to be doing the same events that I am. I’m solo the rest of the time.

This probably looks like an awful mess.

I just want to have a decent general build where the only thing I need to change based on the situation are my skills.
I would prefer not spending much (if any) gold unless I really need to.

Fluffball.8307:

I also recently blew up my motherboard on my dope gaming rig. I thought about building my own PC, but I wound up getting an HP Envy with all the usual programs like Word and etc., for like 600 bucks. More than capable of running GW2, and that’s the most demanding game I use. I stuck in a better graphics card because I had it and I’m good to go.

Also HP is consistently rated the best or second best in every category by Consumer Reports. Dell is the other one.

Edit: Do you have a monitor already I assume? That adds another hundo or 2 to the price of any computer if you don’t.

I think I’ve figured out the PC I want. I do have a monitor, but it’s not anything special. I’ll probably get a new one some time down the line.

I don’t know which board to post this on. Hopefully this isn’t the wrong one.

A component on the motherboard on my gaming laptop that I’d been using for the last 3 years suddenly fried, and it is apparently irreparable. I’ve decided to get a new PC tower instead of another laptop because I rarely moved it, and I want a more powerful system.
I don’t know what kind of price ceiling I’m working with, but I’m gonna place it at $800 as the absolute maximum. I’d prefer not to go near that price, but I really want a PC that can handle the game at a consistent 60 fps at least at medium graphic settings.

Sorry, if this is the wrong board. I assumed that “Technical Support” only applies to problems on a computer you already have.

I’d also like to clarify that I don’t know anything about graphics cards and CPU or anything like that. It’s just a bunch of random numbers to me.

I just figured it out. I used the wrong email. Now I somehow have two accounts.
Both named Zarvanis, but with a different number after the name.
I posted this using my real account as proof (look at the number next to my name on the left). The one I posted the topic as was the new one. Which is why I was so confused.

I must have signed up on the website using my 2nd email, and then forgot.

In the Asura mission, “Here, There, Everywhere”, you’re tasked with defeating Teyo and the destroying the teleportation turret. I did both of those, yet the missions objective still says, “Defeat Teyo”.

I saw the cutscene that occurs after the fight, but the mission won’t end.

I waited several minutes and nothing changed.

I can confirm what shaman said. I brought my level 80 to an early-level zone and the arrow appeared.

This didn’t happen whenever my HP was low in Orr, so it must only happen in early zones.

When your HP reaches critical levels, an arrow appears pointing to your healing skill. It’s supposed to go away when you either use the ability, or press the escape key.
Yet for some reason, whenever it appears for my Asura Elementalist, it doesn’t go away.

Before my Warrior hit level 80, I used to get it on him a lot, too.
If I log-out or go to a different area, it goes away. But it has been getting rather irritating that it shows up every single time my HP drops low.
