Ok man better call scotland yard on this one. This kitten was not in the manifesto.
Finding ways to breach a flawed system is normal, but yes changes are or have been needed for 2 kitten years.
Welcome to the flock shanks There I fixed it for you
So what if it’s kitten exploit. It’s just a way to bypass poor design. If your one of the sheeple that believe Anet understands how to balance their own game, then sure I could see how you would label it as an exploit.

The American Dream is a set of ideals you don’t have to be american to want to be a part of. So your ancestors didn’t drop their nuts either and didn’t wanna take the boat ride?
Don’t hold it against them!
Your nuts probably havn’t dropped yet. One day you will realize you were not bred to live the american dream, you were bred to be a consumer and that’s exactly what you have become
It’s not an exploit. It’s just a way to bypass poor design. If your one of the sheeple that believe Anet understands how to balance their own game, then sure I could see how you would label it as an exploit.
This is what I use in t1 zerg fights lately. It may appear glassy but with proper positioning it is not. Just make sure and ask to be in the melee group with guards/wars for their stability.
Basically wells and ranged pressure on melee ball and picking backliners off with hard hitting lifeblasts when wells on cd. Only on pin for transitions and plague. Just flank the melee ball.
I’m actually using runes of strength but hoelbrek is good too.

Aww do you need help finding Scarlet’s secret lair?
Has any of the EU guys expierienced these bugs that require server reset to reset the event?
Grats guys well done
Condi is supposed to be supplemented damage, not the one and only way to damage in itself, you guys gotta stop trying to bring your epicness in pve to pvp.
This is not to say condi does not have its problems in pve, but people cannot expect to specc full condi and think just because its brokenly unbalanced to viability in pvp its good for pve.That don’t even make sense
Yes i got mixed up in first sentence. Point being, condi is tied into “power builds” as OP claimes because condi as i understand it is supposed to be to a large extent supplementary damage. It would make no sense if 1 stat – condi damage, was all you ever needed to execute damage in the game, therefore precision is a gating, and the procs are tied to other lines. It’s also the reason dhummfire is getting changed.
The only real problem is that condi stacks are limited in so many ways making them not good for pve. PVP determines this stufff, but hopefully they will find a way to fix condi stacking.
Hmm, not really sure if I translated this correctly but you believe conditions are not meant to be a main damage stat just secondary right?
Lol, well thats kinda how I feel when I wear condition damage, toughness and precision gear.
Anyway thanks for the bump.
The only way to ever equalize condi damage (in all aspects of the game) is to do 2 things:
- Give each player their own condi stack on each enemy, instead of a combined condi stack for everyone. It makes no sense to have this limit in the first place. I can only imagine this was a technical constraint of some kind, but it needs to be reexamined. If this existed for power builds, it would be like saying “if the target was hit 25 times in the last ~5 seconds, all other attacks do 0 damage”. (5 seconds being an average condi duration)
- make all attacks against objects ignore power. Only use player level and weapon strength in the calculation. They already remove crit chance, crit dmg, and condi is ignored completely. Just remove power from the equation and let players be equal.
For your first point I don’t think they could do,would cause too much lag is what i’ve heard in the past.
So at the very least allow zergs or dungeon parties to organize an amount of condition damagers thats efficient, cause with the problem I describe its pointless now.
I like your second suggestion
(edited by citizankane.5723)
Also this has always bothered me but i decided to just not use my condi spec for pve since its so bad.
But working on the jungle worm bosses people were asked to stack in a spot that were condition spec for killing husks.Out of 160 people only 4 happened to be condi spec. and those 4 would be useless even split up amongst 160 people due to power based classes applying non condi spec(useless) conditions through traits and weapon skills.
Shrug, seems like a glaring problem to me.
What part of it’s been a year don’t you understand?
It’s curious though how you consider a year a lengthy amount of time in a game with 8 classes, ~500 abilities, ~1-4 million combinations and guesstimated (from WoW’s early versions) ~500k spell or ability effects.
Nothing is ever as easy as it seems. Remember those tiny buffs to the weak PvP warriors? See what that did once you summed them up, and I bet that wasn’t intended either. :P
The problem in my opening post was introduced at the beginning of a game designed around map zerging world bosses in pve with only a 25 stack bleed limit that allows weak non condition spec classes to take up that 25 stack limit.
I know your trying to be positive but this was dumb to introduce at the start of the game and still is a year later. I really don’t know what else to say seems alot of people in this post just don’t get it.
I really do hope they are working towards a better solution as do you but at the very least this is one aspect that should change.

That promise was shelved along with the manifesto.
“Now if you’re wondering “Why hasn’t this changed yet?”, I would as a developer (though not for ANet) say that Blizzard proved pretty well with WoW that nerfing/buffing anything quickly nets you nothing but even more whine threads on the forums.”
What part of it’s been a year don’t you understand?
And what sense does that make for a power based spec with 0 condi damage to apply a condition taking up space on a 25 stack limit and rendering a 2000 condi damage spec useless, please explain further.
(edited by citizankane.5723)
So we all know that conditions have a serious handicap in pve. Can’t be applied to objects, 25 stack limit blah blah blah. It’s been a year and the dev’s are still scratching their heads about it.
So i would like an explanation why you think bleed proc’s should be available on power trait lines and weapon skills for power specs. You could potentially have one condi based spec along with 60 power based specs on one boss and the condi based spec dps would still suck because of this fact.

Yes you can wear 1 infused and 1 non-infused ring of same name/type
I’ve also had this happen no cure but to relog
I’d get an exotic set and wait. The way it could go is mob has same health + group does less damage = group taking more damage per encounter. But who knows I’d just hate to spend all that gold if there will be more efficient options later plus the prices of the ascended materials will drop unless of course everyone waits.
Maybe life blast should add bleeds as well cause switching to ds to cast tainted shackles and life blast to add burning you would lose so much bleed stacking time it probably wouldn’t be worth it.
Thanks for the replies.
So it has nothing to do with you. World bosses usually tend to be only for lv80s for the rare/exotic drops.
Yeah I’m still a little annoyed how Arenanet manages to kitten off new players with their unfair-hard-difficult fights in way-too-low-level areas.
Just like explo modes in dungeons: You’d be a fool or a heavy-armor class to take them on at the level they are displayed.
You should have seen the champ flame shaman day 1 in the charr starter area. Things used to be turned up about 10 notches and some preffered it that way.
OP hang in there gotta get used to the game, low level thief is pretty squishy

Can you potentially do Tequatl a second time on a different character and have a chance at his weapons cache? Not sure where this belongs since the dynamic events sub has been archived.
It’s alright bud not everyone can think outside the box.
People on leeto’s level don’t stand in wells bro
If one of you weapons was a staff it could have been this bug that’s been around awhile.

Cant really be bothered with anything else
“what are the traits for a good condi?? i tried 30/20 ( think is “must” ) but donno how spend others 20 points.. i’m glad to receive any advices and tips.”
Personally if I was not going 30 into curses it would be to go 20 in soul reaping for vital persistence and soul marks

Thanks Sindle didn’t know about the toxic crystals just come off a long break.
Good stuff , any chance you could link your build curious what your using to hit the 100% condi duration.
Thanks for the info Gooz i"ll try that out
What’s everyone using?
Probably your ISP, I’ve been on a while in the super box with no dc’s.

Try hitting a note on the jump across to the last 3 clouds. For some reason there is a pause to it when you first use it . this will allow you to start the correct sequence right away. Also try to land on only 1 pad -33, 2nd pad-23, 3rd pad-31. Just get the door open even if you don’t make the jump after it stays open it seems. Now the sad part is there is a bauble in there so I’m gonna have to do it again at somepoint.

Haha as my character sits at the last checkpoint, been in what seems like forever I read this. Read in another post that chests count so having zero baubles I dig and dig some more till I can afford the first key finalizing with an arduous climb through the bear cave holding a key jumping in the darkness only to find out I missed that first yellow bauble.
Thanks for the tip I can get that last chest from the top and this guide! Off I go.

Just as a friendly hint, Dig Spots don’t count toward Bauble collection achievements.
Does things such as the stump the raccoon boss is guarding or honeycombs count?

That screen you have inside of hidden spot 2 not sure why but it don’t show any water spouts.

I can’t interact with this guy. Is there a prerequisite?
I had more then 100 gold and tons of materials. Now i am at 466 and i have nothing! No gold, no material just nothing!
I start to play this game becouse it was supposed to be without that farming/grinding time wasting boring thing. And what do i have to do now?

No i am forced becouse i need them for fractals and chance to drop them is so low that noone can rely on it. So?
You dont need them for fractals at all, stop crying because you want a handout.
You know nothing about fractals. I need it! Withou high enoght AR you can not do 50+ fractals. YOU NEED ASCENDED WEAPONS FOR FRACTALS!
No you DO NOT.
You don’t need em, just use strafe exploit as seen in video. Lol terrible example
Dodging = exploit? Wow you musta CoF P1’ed a few too many times.
He is clearly bugging it with stafing with some dodging mixed in but all you see is dodging. Guess you didn’t know you could do this,your just ignorant is all. Notice at 13 sec in the rapid back and forth movement and the bosses agony attack miss with no dodge in sight no blind on boss. Anyways, this is getting off topic.
