Guild Wars 2

Hey guys, I just got back from the store. Fear not! I have brought back several buckets to collect the tears flowing from this thread. It seems that I have arrived at a crucial moment – just a few more posts and we would have been swimming!

Would it be possible to change the WvW gate’s “action” priority to give it priority over other “Actions” like taking a portal, picking up conjures, etc. ?

For instance, the match is about to reset. Everyone is stacked on the WvW Gates in Lion’s Arch spamming their action key, but right before the maps open a troll drops a portal. Since the portal is a new object it takes priority over the WvW Gate. 20 people un-intentionally take the portal instead of the WvW Gate and now they are stuck in queue for hours on end.

If it is possible to adjust the priority, don’t forget to include the new mobile crafting stations in the priority list. One crafting station takes up 60% of a WvW gate if placed perpendicular to the gate

Why is everyone hating on TW? Is that your way of easing the kitten?

What is this non-sense about “sustain”? Warriors don’t need sustain, that’s what Guardians are for (protection and heals.) With 26k HP and a 9k heal there is no need for sustain. Anything you hit will die within 10 seconds if you’re running with a decent train. If you need to heal, then run away and reset. After all you can just WALK away from a fight without being CC’d

When Endure Pain procs, get out and reset/re-rally with train. If you have a good commander and train, there’s no way to die on a warrior now.

This is quite hilarious. Warrior is super fun to play now. 3.8k armor, 3.1k attack, 70% crit chance, 26k HP, invulnerable to CC… gg. Warrior is God Mode now XD.

Devon is doing an awesome job, getting a lot of stuff done and fast.

VotF…. hm… oh, I remember! Yea those are the noobs that were too scared to fight open field. They sat in our tower like baddies -.- lol we were so bored waiting for you guys to come out – I started making pancakes for everyone.

I remember the first time we saw you guys at hills… after a rough initial encounter :P (30v70) we managed to wipe you at the NE supply camp (30v70)

VotF is ok I guess. You guys know how to train well, but when faced with a real challenge you get wrecked… since all you know how to do is veil and train forward…

For badges sake, when you find it – check the level. I just wasted like 1k badges on level 70 trinkets from the original vendor XD. Go to your home borderlands or eternal battlegrounds. There should be 2 armor vendors. One of these will provide several different stat-combination sets.

Thanks for the fun fights in SoR (Aco). Was fun fighting even numbers in between running from that 80 man SoR zerg.

(Pro) Nashin

The numbers were even, but dang… you guys could totally outrun a centaur!

Why doesn’t Yak Escort give WXP? I understand removing gold/karma from completing the event, but why not give WXP for completing it?

Wooooo Beastgate! It has been a great week folks

2nd place = first loser.

PRX leaving eh? Sigh… this sucks. WvW going to be a little more boring without those extra JQ to slaughter

Score Update for those at work

Just for you before I go to bed!

Much love, from the LOVE Asuras!

Fix your armor dude.

My mate wanted to show off his awesome legs….. he put hard work into making them look that good :P

(His pants didnt need repairing)

Those 2 inch Asuran squats..!

GW2 is not a competitive game, but the player-base wants it to be. The game was designed to be casual… which is disappointing. GvG is popular because it is the closest thing to competitive PvP we have.

As for WvW, I wouldn’t worry about boon hate. It will likely be in a trait line that completely offsets any decent thief build. Thieves will be even more useless after the stealth nerf anyway.

Would like to see one week where SoR’s NA got to play the weekdays…. JQ would get wrecked by atleast a 40k lead.

hmm… GvG is a big thing because it is competitive. WvW is lame/boring and not competitive. Sorry if the PvD people are offended by the GvG crowd.

btw WvW does NOT make you a better player. Would you PvE to improve your PvP skills? In order to progress you must challenge yourself by fighting tough opponents – not running from them.

You know I’m sure this next week will be amazing, but why don’t we all take a look at the most recent GvG a matchup of two very good guilds while we wait for the reset.

TW vs EMP

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkrB9nf_jaE

This wasn’t a GvG, this was just NA Primetime yesterday, with alot of 3way fight, and is not TW vs EMP. TW didn’t show for the GvG time. Then they wanted to play the GvG at NA primetime when EMP was Defending JQBL xD. And the zerg from SoR is more like TW, Fear, Hel and anothers guilds in SoR, not only TW

There was no GvG time as EMP backed out again. Yes that is more than TW, but also less than the JQ zerg. I would say 30v50.

Any chance we will know how many badges ascended gear will cost before the patch release? Or even a rough estimate?

I have a feeling it will be added next patch..!

Hello Xbox community forums

Do you even halo, bro?!

I’m surprised that the thread hasn’t been closed yet.

Let’s make it a little happier – What did/do you plan to have for lunch today?

Obviously pie! Happy Pi day.

I think JQ/BG are trying to make SoR quit due to boredom. There’s nothing to kill ._.

Your entire home bl was green for three plus hours during NA prime time which so many on your server like to say it is the best at.

Our home BL was queue’d. The other 3 maps was nothing but BG/JQ hiding in keeps. We even left the walls dowkittenM for you guys, but nobody came to play duck duck goose with us…! You guys are really anti-social/boring lol.

I think JQ/BG are trying to make SoR quit due to boredom. There’s nothing to kill ._.

We’re just upset because you haven’t showed us love, Mia..!

Imagine bringing 60 MM necros ikittenerg. The trolling would be amazing. 1 necro = 8 models… like 480 models to render XD that’s your perma-invis right there!

JQ only won by 16k last week. That’s hardly a lead and could be negated within a day. That point gap was generated during a Friday in which nobody really plays anyway. The 3rd server can always determine who wins.

Does anyone know a good place to test condition removal skills? The only place I know is WvW, but there’s too many people curing conditions already so the results are unreliable. The Necro NPC in the mists wasn’t applying enough conditions. I need a way to test my condition removal on allies also.

Are you playing front-line or staying at range?

Christos uses Cleric’s armor AND jewelry, if I’m not mistaken, and uses dodging as a cornerstone to his survivability. This puts out a lot of heals if you’re using Selfless Daring and allows you to linger in the enemy lines for quite a while. The build has 1 leap and 1 teleport for positioning yourself in battle, if you wanted to try it out – Healway Guardian

Absolutely go PVT if you’re playing front-line. The “Front-liners” typically use PVT armor/jewelry and Soldier runes. Since you’re all spamming shouts it’s hard for the enemy to CC you.

You don’t HAVE to use PVT jewelry, but remember your goal is to stay alive during a push so don’t lower your survivability too much. The damage is coming from your ranged players.

You have to balance between vitality and healing power.

PTV armor and PTV jewelry:

20k HP is great, but not if you can’t fill it up with your heals.

PTV armor and cleric/magi jewelry:

16-20k HP and massive heals to sustain you and your team in battle.

It also depends on your build. Not sure if using healing gear without AH or heal on dodge is worth it. Runes depend on your role in fight. Are you running with a melee train in a large zerg? Small team battling?

Core melee train uses Soldier Runes/Shouts and Support train can use Soldiers or Water/Monk for boosting Protection up-time.

It either needs to hit harder or hit more people. Atm the only reason I use any 1h is for a shield – that doesn’t feel right.

How many badges do you think the Ascended pieces will be worth now that we get tons of bags?

Atm I’m getting 250 badges on a slow night, but I know some people are getting around 1k badges/night.

Does anyone know how this skill works?

Does it remove a condition on every tick (10 condition removals)?

Does the cone hit and remove conditions for up to 5 allies consecutively?

Thanks.

Kain won’t make it to T1. If they did, they would get bumped down quickly.

JQ will win this week.

So much anger… yes, let the hate flow through you!

So I only need to find one of you!

Christos de Soufre.3802:

Missed you, SoR.<3

What armor are you wearing now? (So we can wave at you..!)

Since there’s already a thread for questions I won’t make a new one:

How often does Cleansing Flame remove conditions from allies? Is it every tick (10 removals?)

Does it only remove a condition from one ally at a time, or can it remove conditions from up to 5 allies every tick?

Happy national old stuff day

It always lags on reset night. Pretty sure all tiers feel this as well, but what’s odd is that you can have the same amount of people during the weekday and encounter no lag. Why is it on reset night in particular?

Also, my lag ended around 11 pm PST. Any other servers have a time when they stopped encountering ability lag? Does the mass influx of people onto these maps have something to do with it? (Surely not, just trying to guess some things)

This is the first time I’ve actually been disconnected from lag. I was standing at spawn too

It seems like the lag stops around 11 pm PST

Either way, I’m hoarding resources until they add Magi gear…!

Yea… I actually logged in today feeling productive, “Yeaaa let’s do it! Gonna get me some Ascended stuff! Ite how do I get started… oh I have to do a daily.. or a monthly. Well, ok then :/” log off

The WvW update will partially fix this, but leave PvE people out of the loop (odd turn of events here! o.o)

What about Magi? What is the point of Valkyrie anyway?

happy international polar bear day

Is this relevant to the incorrect information regarding location on the contact’s list? I’ll be in WvW with a friend and it says he’s on a random server (usually Anvil Rock or Borlis Pass)

Hmmm I don’t think it’s so much that people want items handed to them, but the fact that we can only take 1 step per day. If we could gain more laurels per day from “grinding” it would be better… (remaining neutral on the grind topic, just saying it would relieve some people if they were given more options).

As of now the only thing we can do to get the new gear is login, do daily, logout. That sucks. It’s like we’re playing Farmville.

New gear grind – mass salvaging in LA for achievement laurels X)

I think the biggest difference between Exotic/Ascended stats will be crit dmg and precision. As of now I think you can gain 8% crit damage and 5%-9% crit chance from trinkets alone.
