Guild Wars 2

just popping in to say i am experiencing this too

I think I’m going to do a mix of both, shooting for the armor to be completed first. It’s going to be a long road either way, at least if I focus the armor I will have some progression in terms of stats.

As for my luck, that’s why I called the dragon my friend (:
(I’m convinced I will have bad luck for the rest of my time with GW2 to compensate for those two drops, haha.)

I do like to set things on fire…

The end goal is Berserker’s stats, so power… it’s a work in progress.

Edit: that reminds me I never changed the stats on my bow… I completely forgot, wow

I recently finished crafting The Colossus, which turned out to be a three month and 300+ gold endeavor. I probably could have done it faster, but I had a couple IRL setbacks, where I didn’t play for a few days at a time.

I’d like to finish it into The Juggernaut but also… I’m a little burnt out and wouldn’t mind taking a break and working on something else. It also feels silly to have a Legendary weapon with Exotic armor, right? hehe.

So my indecision lies in… Do I dedicate my limited gold, time, and mats to a Legendary, or put that off until after I have a set of Ascended gear?

Here’s my current build, (I know it’s not great) https://gw2efficiency.com/c/Cor%20Ana

PS- If curious, both of my ascended weapons were from my good friend, Tequatl.

I also like the idea of an in-game “bookshelf”

What is really confusing to me is why the Journal collections left you with duplicates of each Journal? I suppose it could be in case you destroyed the “incomplete” version. But why not make the final version replace the incomplete one?

After the whole legendary weapons fiasco with HoT.

I’m out of the loop. What fiasco?

Well, it’s a week later, and I went through the rest of the HoT story without too much effort and in two sittings. And then the LS3 story as well.

I had a good amount of Heart of Maguuma mastery already, I’m not sure why I put off the story so long, so that definitely helped speed the process.

Just leaving an update here in case anyone else has the same questions. I agree that playing everything in order is the way to go.

I agree with Chad. Don’t feel bad. I report abusive language when I come across it, even if it is not directed towards me. Meta events are a group effort, and something like that is working against the team.

Sorry if this has been asked before, or just in general sounds like a silly question. I was wondering if I skip the HoT story to check out LS3, will it make any sense? I’m on part 7 of the story which I believe is still Act 1.

Secondary question, I hear buzz about a “new area.” Is the only way to reach it by playing the LS3 story?

Obviously, I’m out here dodging spoilers, but I’m also really interested in checking out the new PvE area.

Thanks in advance

i know this topic is old, but i wanted to bump it to say…. after the patch today, they re-added the ability to earn spirit shards once you are at the level cap

ah, that explains why I was a little off. I think I started playing in August 2015.

I do wish exp counted for something still. At least I have other characters I want to work on.

yeah, it kinda sucks. before HoT, you used to get spirit shards iirc (I may have this detail wrong, but it was something). I’m not sure why this was removed.

I was actually poking around to see if anyone knew any more about this. Will there be more Masteries to earn in the future?

It feels almost like a waste to play my lvl 80 character in Central Tyria.

Thanks guys, I think I will start making more use of it.

When I started playing, I thought cooking looked really cool, so over time as I played I maxed out cooking on my main. However, I have used it almost never. It came in handy making Mawdrey a little.

Other than that, I have rarely used it since maxing it out. It was fun to do so, lots of discovery and stuff. However, now I wonder if there are any recipes that are very useful for boosts or even gold.

Anyone have some suggestions?
