Guild Wars 2

Glad to see im not alone. Been having the same problem again after the patch.

In celebration of HoT expansion together with Halloween, I present you the one and only Mad King Thorn! (HoT version)

Kit the Traveler has asked me to paint something for her. It turns out quite well I think. She does community events continuing the legacy of Nicholas the Traveler in GW1. Please give support! <3

Since you guys want a two-way conversation, let’s talk a little bit about the part -
Weakness of warrior =)

Little ability to deal with enemy boons
Yes they cant strip off enemy boons but since their burst is so high, it doesn’t matter does it?

Reliant on adrenaline to use many abilities
Yes that is correct but when adrenaline are in abundance, that isnt really a limitation.

Can become overwhelmed by conditions if their defenses expire
Warrior has many ways to condi clear if traited (very good traits compared to other professions’ traits to do the same job). Some professions dont even have the said defenses against conditions. This weakness is really a mild one.

Living breathing world and its lore aside, creating content that has a time limit brings us and the health of the game huge amount benefits.

Take crown pavilion for example. At the start of this content patch, only organised guilds are able to take it on. In no time, pick-up-groups are showing that they are capable too and we see surprising amount of success here. Gradually, we see more and more people participating and organising – which is all looking great at this point. Except we are seeing more botters and afkers dragging the entire team. We have a team of people organising vs a team of “non-helpful” people, and its a struggle downhill. With time-limited content, we experience this rise and fall as with all cycles and we move on.

Now imagine this content is permanent. At this point, devs will have to step in and do something. The time spent on this cleaning up they could have done creating new interesting ideas for us.

All in all, having fresh ideas throughout the seasons dont come without consequences and although imposing time limit isnt the most graceful, it brings us a healthy flow of content. And for this, let us take a moment to say we appreciate!

Its not just Daniel Dociu and being gifted. It is all hard work and sweat with good vision and leadership I feel personally =)

Thanks Sydon. May I ask which fresh air build? 30-30 -x-x-x ?

Can anyone give advice for strugar and chomper fight? I know you have to take the food asap but with the low fps everytime u turn ur camera, its hard =(

Just thought I’d mention that I got some improvement last night by guesting on a lower pop server (I’m on Desolation). Whether that was coincidental or not I don’t know, but it’s worth a try.

I can confirm on this. Guesting on a server of low population does decrease the lag.

Same here. This issue come out every patch as of late and then goes away after a while. This recent one has been here to stay for quite a while.

Nothing changed on my part – internet, pc, drivers..etc.

It’s pure anecdote and I don’t have enough network know-how to prove it, but I did a dns flush on my computer today and the lag seems to have gone for the time being.

I did a quick google on how to do a dns flush and no more lag for me! Thank you old sport!

In Aion, the way they handle culling is that, names are always shown first, then characters will start to load. That is, you will see a sea of names coming at you, even if you can’t see the characters. It is much better than invisible.

Is it possible?

As mentioned, some of the boss mechanic is simply – lazy. There is no other way to put it. It felt rushed and lacking in interest. And the huge amount of HP isnt helping to make it more exciting.

I wish to see more of the lovers mechanic. It even has lore attached to the fights. (Why are the boss acting in this way? vs Implementing phases of boss fight with no reason at all) AC , to me at least, felt the best and with the most polished, and Arah just felt really uninspired.

Went through many alts and elementalist remains the only one that can withstand the test of time.

Simply in love with the human city.

Can I start? Icy Mist. This trait is really bad and should be merged with Soothing Wave to make room for a fall damage reduction trait.

Hallelujah!

And I thought we’ll never see this trait implemented! I feel something inside me being brought to life. ^^

Something that I’ve done way before engineer was announced. I figured some profession will be related to guns/machinery.

Hence, the inception of this idea and artwork =)
