Guild Wars 2

I have been away for about a year, when I returned I noticed 6 new poi and 7 new way points. Were these added later and where can I track them down?

What are the colors used for the Duelist armor when you go to make a human male thief. I have the armor but I cant figure out what dye’s anet uses at the creation screen. Anyone know?

Is the permanent knockdown intended or a bug? I know they knock you down for like 10 secs and then hit you with another when their CD finishes. It is pretty difficult to roll out of it or heal yourself on the ground. Is it channeled where someone can knockdown or stun them to break it? It takes you completely out of the fight. I would always go for these guys first except they are always teamed with Breeders which take priority, which I have to use my CC on them first to cancel summons, then bam no CC to use on scavenger = permanent knock down.

So upon maxing armorsmith and weaponsmith I was really let down with the lack of being able to craft armor and weapons with the stats I want to use to tank with. The stats would be power, vital and toughness. So far I can only find maybe 2 karma armor items from the armageddon armor, the boots and chest both have these but the rest are random stats and via pvp grind tokens. Is it possible to discover these stats through the mystic forge?

I saw in a post to make some emerald rings, amulet and earrings to get these stats but no one listed how to make them. If anyone knows a direction they could send me or list how to make these I would be your best friend forever.

So how does one make the emerald rings, amulet and earrings again? The power, tough, vital is the stats I want for my tank. Also can this be done with armor too?

I forget the names but should be focus fire on all the fire shaman npc’s first? Since they ground aoe and explode. The npc’ rangers don’t seem to do actually to much until there are like 5-6 of them coming after you.

So me and my guild were running CoF last night with little to no problem and quite enjoying the 60 token for first run might I add when we get to this event. Every time we had done it successfully was to stagger 1 person in, 2 people in and 2 people again rotating deaths. I know this is not the real way to do this nor the intended way. So we decided to actually really try to do it legit. This was pretty hard. I would like to know the proper strategy how to do this. Which targets should be taken down first. The HP pools seem rather large for a 2 minute event and the spawns after 30% on the clock increase rapidly. Has anyone killed all the npc’s or do you just need to target specific and continue to kite? Thanks for any info.

Remember swtor? Yeah. First time impressions mean everything.

This system is so broken and stupid. Way to turn off people from your game. I am sorry but I will no longer spend 2-3 hours on each path just to go from 60 to 45 to 15. F that! I can just craft my exotics and look generic.

2-3 hours for 60-15 tokens is meh at best.

So we get no token drops from boss kills and just from complete runs? So basically we waste a bunch of time until the very end. So what happens when we get random DC’s and it resets? Screwed? No reward for the work you already did?

Actually I think Arah is quite sad. The mages wipe the party more then the boss encounters. I really have no idea what direction Anet wanted to go with their dungeons. The experience is all over the place. It should be a challenge to get to the bosses but the experience should be more enjoyable. The boss fights should be the hard mechanic, not getting to them. Boss fights as they are now are boring, flat and not even challenging. I am not just talking about bumping up their damage as a quick fix but we need an over all change in mechanics. Since this game breaks the holy trinity and players are supposed to be self sufficient we are now started to see a break down and exclusion of player types and classes because Anet designed a faulty system.

TLDL Anet falsely advertised the dungeon system and is quite broken as is. I don’t blame these players for speed runs to get some decent gear as these dungeons are extremely boring and unbalanced getting to and fighting boss encounters.

I love this. Tera combat was awesome but it didn’t have the depth GW2 has. Now I can have both!!!

If Robert can post of video of him playing CoF with no problems then I wont have any argument.

I would love nothing more then a video of the dev playing in CoF getting owned by his own bugs and LOL 10k fireball damage timed event. Oh yeah, escort Magg too buddy. Put your money where your mouth is. Dont hate on players because you screwed your own dungeon up that YOU designed. Be man and stop acting like a 4chan troll.

I cant even begin to fathom that the guy who created this dungeon does not realize that the timed event mobs hit from anywhere from 6k-10k in full tough gear stacked. The spawn is insanely fast and the HP pools of these mobs are very high. They have silver rings not the normal reds. If you intended this to be the real fight then I am sorry to say you have lost a huge portion of your dungeon fan base.

I also need to mention just how badly designed the Magg escort AI is. He sits there in the middle of the lava/fire/mobs make it nearly impossible to res or defend. We cleared the whole room, res’d him and he still would not follow us to the end to the magnacite. Sure the speeds runs needed adjusting and I agree that seeing these people with full sets is pretty outrageous.

Currently your dungeon is not rewarding at all. You really need a generic currency that is shared with ALL dungeons so that players can enjoy all the content you provide. You are separating players and guilds and forcing people to pug. I don’t just want to run CoF. I would also enjoy Nightmare, Arah and the others but no one wants to do them. It would take me hours to find a group and I only get 20-30 tokens for two hours of work? 20 hours of work for one piece of cosmetic gear? Did you really think this through.

I love this game. It is a refreshing change to modern mmo’s and I do enjoy the difficultly as an older player. You have to reward people for the hard work they put in if you wish them to stay. Currently as is your explore modes are borderline impossible. I don’t plan to play them anymore until some sort of balance is met. I will try to enjoy the exploited pvp and huge server imbalance as long as I can. I hope it can keep me here because this is a beautiful game and the people I have met along the way are really awesome.
