Guild Wars 2

I completed map completion on 9 characters and have thrown away 500+ Stones. It would be cool if i could get them compensated but lets be honest that is way to much work for Anet to look into everyones account to refund.

Im looking to be transfering to JQ for season 1 of WvW. But im also looking for an NA guild which runs most nights.

I have 80 in all classes and all have high sustain builds on each class. I am willing to main any class which your guild needs currently.

Please contact me in game. I can answer any questions you need answered.

I should be on during NA prime which would be probably the best time to contact me.

Please only JQ reps only.

TBH i think Guild wars has a better chance at making the classic 8v8 GvG’s into an Esport instead of Spvp. Anet is putting to many eggs into the Spvp Basket from the first day of the game. All other forms of PvP have suffered. I think getting a GvG system into the game is a smart thing to do, However dont make it 100% Deathmatch make it combo of Capture the flag/ Deathmatch/ and Keeplord Destruction like in GW1. Stop Pushing for Spvp to make you millions Anet your just ruining your community.

Sorry to burst your Internet Fame but BT has not been in EB for about a month. So your 20 minute Video in EB is of no indication on BT, please atleast include BT in your videos before you say their name. Thank you have a great day.

I like how TW complains about BT cutting down their recordings to only show the victorious parts but then TW does the same exact things. Not to mention Before that choke even occured during the video i saw about 10 dead SoR players and over half of them with TW tags. Maybe you shouldnt complain about a 3 minute video if your counter arguement video is only 2:36. If its red its Dead stop complaining about GvG crashes you have no right doing them.

you realise all this talk on the forums is all hearsay.

The only thing showing what happened last night was 1 screenshot of 20-30 BT in a stack and a video posted by a BT commander. Untill there is a video showing them getting farmed there is no proof. People saying the video is only 3 minutes, while its 3 minutes more then you have showing that BT won.

Show the proof words dont mean anything.

Looking for Open NA

Looking for an uncontested NA temple need to help my cousin gear.

Need moar Shards for the Clovers.

Only 1 guest chance left

Really? Come on, you say you want fights. A full server empties out after 20 minutes of contact. What’s going on?

FA has strict bedtimes i know for my guild we usually part ways at 10 eastern usually. Should have been their 2-3 hours earlier when BT was running around. You two guys will have to set up a play date. I know i miss fighting you guys.

I think we should have huge rumble on KNBL tomorrow all you big guilds, you know who you are : P

Just saying lets have some fun, besides repairs are only 2s a death

The Crafted armour is a Catch All set for those looking for exotics, Buying/Obtaining gear based on looks will take extra cash and time. If you have any Trans stones lying around from your BL chests you can use those to “SWAG” your look up.

The only thing you can make with Ori ore is Exotic jewelery and each peice takes around 30-40 ore to complete. I think a complete full set of jewelery takes about 79 bars to complete or 158 ore. I would suggest trying to see if your server has a High level Material Map posted somewhere i know my current server Fort Aspenwood has one which updates a day after each patch.

Dont forget each peice requires 5 ectos to make also : P

Good luck on your future jewelerycrafting

I have been playing GW2 since launch and have been getting into alot of moods (PvE, Dungeons, WvW, etc.) and currently i am feeling i am transitioning out of WvW and into Dungeons so i am looking for more friends who like running dungeons each day.

I have an 80 of each profession and can run any build necessary. I have experiance in most dungeons and most paths.

PM me in game or on the forums if you are looking for a 5th man to round out your team or your just wanting to run a certain dungeon each day.

This is for North American Servers :P

Thanks, Omaha

The point is even with the 800+ people thats still 80-160 people more in World V World (assuming 10-20% WvW Regularly) and if you are truely a WvW guild you should be fielding 30-40% of your total members a night. You guys need to rethink your Guild policies if you can only get a small fraction of your guild to world v world. Not strip a server to the bare bones like you are planning on doing.

If the numbers Pickle is pulling out are true, TC is eating all of CD it looks like where when IoJ transfered to FA we got 3 guilds however the people who transfered were not in the 500 range like TC could possibly be getting.

However i doubt you will be able to get all of the transfered right away concidering many servers are near cappacity, yours is probably already on the almost maxed end.

Kinda sad you need to ruin another servers WvW livelyhood to increase a couple timeslots.

I run that healing build on my warrior, it works well but you need to hold every person in your group responsible for their healing, also dodging at the appropriate time is a must when bosses tell you what they are doing. I would also suggest soldier runes for the warrior because they also remove conditions which help. another helpful thing for warrior is to spec warhorn and use the 5 on the horn whenever you engage and also horn 4 for a condition removal.

Titan.3472:

nice rams is it to celebrate FA week results?

FA is not going to instantly ride into T2 and start taking first place. T2 is way different then T3 and it takes adjusting to get used to the fight styles of opponents. Besides the guild I run with gets less and less fights because people keep running away. Sure you might say WvW is not about fights, but when you realise were going to be in T2 together for a couple more months there is no reason to go cut-throat PPT. I wish we could all enjoy the fights in the weeks ahead instead of sit on keeps and towers spamming Arrowcarts till the tower falls or enemies back off.

Until then keep fighting Kain and TC i know FA will do the best we can.

elderan.2638:

Matt: Could you quickly clarify a question that was raised about the abilities: Are the effects for each level cumulative or additive? For example, does tier 2 of Guard Killer upgrade your damage to 2% TOTAL, or does it ADD 2% damage for that tier, for a total of 3% (1%+2%)?

Please answer this if it is ADDitive maxing out the supply tree would mean you could hold 25 supply total which would be sweeeeeet!

I Actually talked to the player from Maguuma who was building all those flame rams in FABL He said he was going for the Beseiger title (Supply on seige) and he solos supply camps then proceeds to make 4 flame rams. He has the money to make 3 legendaries and still throw 6g everytime he needs another stack of rams. He will have a cool title i guess.

When i was leveling my guys I decided to take the extra 10-15 minutes per zone harvesting everything i could find (free exp). After i got my first character to level 50 i realised that would not be enough stuff to get him to 400 of any crafting profession so i began making alts. It got to the point i decided to make 4 alternate characters to harvest and progress through pve areas at once.

Once i was bored of PvE (hearts, Waypoints, PoI’s, etc.) I decided to spend a couple days crafting. When i crafted i had enough raw materials to craft 1-25 by making ingots and planks on all 8 crafting professions then i bought all the fine materials needed to make one of each recipe using the exploration window. Since i had taken the time to harvest all the materials and only buy the fine materials (vials of blood, scales, totems, etc.) I only spent about 5-8 gold getting every crafting profession to 400.

I know making 5 characters does not sound fun to many people but it helped me understand the professions in a in-depth way when facing them in WvW.

I currently have 5 level 80s with 100% world completion and plan on completing 100% on 3 more characters to have an 80 of each profession, However i dont plan on doubling up crafting professions just for the fact of it makes you level faster. I dont mind doing 100% world completion because the last 3-4 zones i will already be 80 so there is no need to get the exp boost crafting creates. I hope this helps.

Feel free to talk to me in game Ascalon Fried Charr.

I currently have used 125 Ectos/Shards in search of Clovers I have used only single and have gotten 30 clovers. I dont Mind the RNG im planning on getting 144 clovers (2 gifts) So i plan on using about 400-600 ectos/shards.

But i am on pace to get my first 77 at 250 or so shards which is fine with me.

The limiting factor for me is Ectos and not Shards.

Make sure you have bought the recipe with Karma from the specific merchant and if that is not what is wrong Level to 75 then make the bag : P

Every couple of weeks i decide to go into a Harvesting mode. Thankfully enough a user on my server has a detailed map of all 4 high level zones to get Ori Ore, Ancient Logs, and Omnomberries. Since i have 5 80’s with all content done I do not mind spending 3-4 hours every 2-3 weeks getting high end materials which can be stockpiled. I currently have about 350 berries incase i ever feel like buying the beans to make Bars for profit. With that being said keep in mind each recipe makes 2 bars so the loss in buying the ingrediants is minimal. so supplying yourself with 1 or 2 ingrediants instantly turns that loss into a major gain.

Ever since i started harvesting i dont mind saturating the TP with a product which does not give profit unless you harvested. It gives harvesters like me and incentive to sit down and farm.

I dont see why your complaining… every server does it. me personally i dont emote only if it was a fair 1v1 fight (Bow/Cheer). however i can count the times on my hands ive been killed 5 v 1 and i still get emoted when im dead. Sure it might be distasteful but if you dont like it just respawn.

sweet thanks for the information

When does the daily dungeon run timer reset so i get 60 tokens a path? i know each character has a different timer.

Does it reset when the new day starts server time or does it reset 24 hours since you did that path.

Any information would be sweet

First of all your an Ele so your toughness is not as effective as your armor is only light. Secondly the Theif could be using full glass cannon gear and relying on the culling issue to get him kills. Theifs can get crazy stacks of might with full utility of venoms or even signets. I would suggest carrying Mist form and not being afraid to use it.

In my experiance D/D eles like to have reckless abandant when only a couple can actually pull it off to a tee. If you get 1 banged so be it at the end of the day realise thats what theifs do, make a theif and mess around with them they have very high spike but little to none skills which heal besides their main heal skill

Nautika you obviously do not know about Gw2lfg.com which is a dungeon group finder which will group you with anyone within the north american servers to help do story mode and exp mode dungeons. Just because you have had a bad experiance finding groups does not mean that the server is bad. it just means people are doing different things that you necessarly are not doing. I personally go on 3-10 exp paths a day using Gw2lfg.com and have done every story mode. With this being said dont bash something when you dont know much about it.

Everyone is able to have their oppinions however this is something to think about: Guild Wars 1 was a game created where you were instanced where only you and your party got a copy of the map and all its mobs. with this being said GW1 had very little need for on the fly hotfixes because many of its areas had been combed through and many of its updates to an area would simply change a quest but not mess with other active quests in the game (to my knowledge)

Guild wars 2 on the other hand is a whole other beast where you change one quest or event and it can have long lasting bugs or unintended effects to pre-existing contact. With a large part of the community finding these bugs and reporting them now it creates a list for the testers and developers to look at and proritise based on how game/economy breaking this bug or unintended accident ranks in their list. Obviously the Guild wars 2 staff has alot of different teams working on content so it is hard to find all the game breaking things first round through testing. I think for the enormity of the game (keeping low level content fun while entertaining 80’s) the ANet team has done a good job to work on fixes.

If a dungeon is broke or bugged to do stuff its not supposted to Report it here and go and do another dungeon and try your luck at that one. You never know you might get a nice exotic with an expensive sigil/rune on it or even a couple Elemental core/lodestone.

Don’t forget your Magic/Coin find food and happy Crawling

When i was in the guild about 2% of your members were actively representing which is pretty hard to find a dungeon group when when you ask in Guild chat only 2% see your message. It would be nice to get people to rep the guild when running a dungeon so they can plan future runs later in the day and also contact people who they would be willing to run with later. Also representing while running dungeons gives the guild vital influence to buy things like Dungeon boosts and stuff like that.

Just my thought though.

I am assuming that when arenanet has talked about working on the group systems in the game they are actively going to create a group system much like guild wars one where you can see who is making groups and decide what to do from there. Hopefully it will be cross server so it will be as simple as logging on, opening the LFG tab and finding a dungeon you would be willing to run or learn to run. Im hopping they also add a way for NA/EU groups to be possible in dungeons i dont think that is possible now.

I like the blatent 2v1 day in and day out against FA quite classy however against all odds we will see who is the victor and if FA wins im gonna laugh so hard…. good thing there is no Lost Shore stuff this week so we will be rolling during the night hope you like spending 4g reupgrading keeps TC and YB : P

Im looking for a competent guild that does alot of dungeons,

I am mainly doing AC atm to make a tank set on my Warrior however i will be branching out into any and all the dungeons that need players

I have a level 80 thief, warrior, ele, mesmer, and Engineer

I will rep your guild when in dungeons.

all my characters are level 80 but they are not fully exoticed out this is why im looking for a guild to do dungeons with let me know

I think this can be a good way to make a little cash if you can say this is the level of green i need to make a gold,

Then you can salvage the gold in hopes of ectos.

even with a 10s gold you have a chance to make up to 40-50s dependant on the price of ectos

Key point- Chance rares can produce 0-3 ectos.

ET was based on server transfers it never was anything untill they came now that they are gone they sadly have to fall until they come to someone they can fight against

With this being said keep fighting ET if you dont keep trying to win you will never know when you find formitable opponents

yea I see what your saying and the next hit crits sigil never thought of that i just need to have atleast 3 daggers equiped between my 2 weapon sets

i would need to CnD on one set then switch to back stab with the next

True i think Kodan look cool as bleep but its just not gonna be a playable to close to the norn

Having one of every race i find it wierd to do jumping puzzles on my charr.

I feel so clunky and big its hard to make precise and accurate jumps

Although i know all races act the same when jumping the visual makes it harder it seems :P

let me know if anyone else thinks so.

I still love my Tanky Charr Warrior

On my thief im having a hard time deciding which one would be more benificial for me

20% increased damage when the opp is under 50%

or 100% crit in stealth

I am building Mainly beserker with valk jewelery and rage runes so i am going to have 80%+ crit damage (not sure on exact number).

I like singling out targets and doing damage, but the whole 1 bang doesn’t really appeal to me ( havent seen any 10k+ backstabs maybe thats why).

Let me know what 30 point trait you use and why.

i run 10/30/0/15/15

I am pretty sure Anet have given the “minor race” title to races such as the skritt quaggans, kodan and the dredge.

I am also pretty possitive they have said the minor races will not become playable but i could be wrong.

With that being said you have to look back into GW1 lore to think of races or creatures which would be candidates for Playable-Race status.

I think Anet have liked the idea of Tengu as a playable race hence why the dominion of winds is sectioned off (for their racial town).

other then that I have no solid evidence that points to one race of the next.

It sounds to me like you would like to be a Buff based guardian guardians have alot of utilities which give alot of buffs and most of their weapon sets are melee.

Talking to my brother the only thing he does not like about guardian is their low base HP so it is crutcial to either Trait/gear toughness, vitality or both. also looking into runes/sigils that would increase your buff durations would be good to look at other then that I cannot give you personal experience because i have not made a guardian just played along side them, killed them and watched them work.

I don’t think its worth getting rares at all stick to full blues or greens while you are leveling then once you hit 80 buy full greens then keep those until you can afford full exotics + desired runes. if you level in PvE fast your Armour seems to lack level wise its good to buy new gear from the TP every 2-3 areas you complete. i like to buy blues from the TP while leveling so i can either resell or Salvage. However if you feel like buying cool low level rare gear buy it i think once you hit 80 + full exotics the next step is to get gear you think is cool to transmog your exotics with.

I dont worry about rares period but lots of people like to have the best stuff when leveling : )

I cannot remember what weapon set he was using but i also use a little Scepter Dagger and will probably be toting around those 2 in my invent with me havent decided what i like best staff or SD but thats good to think about when i first looked into Ele i loved the Arcana trait line but everything else felt blah so ill have to relook at fire and water.

This is just my thought but i don’t think A-net owes us a new race this early into the game. Many of there people who have been asking for a new race have not even finished the story lines of all the races already.

I don’t think Anet needs to create a new race until they decide to sell a boxed expansion. with that being said Dwarves, Centaur and Tengu would be cool to see in the game

Being that this game is less than 3 months old i dont think they need to put out a new race but once a year. however extended lore and answered question about the exsisting races would be nice and fun to learn

Holy thanks a ton ive been wondering about this and i was just thinking about going staff main wep : P ill take this into concideration i can use 2 minor waters and 2 minor monk runes correct?

Recently while in Ascalon Catacombs i met an Elementalist who could stack our group with 20-25 stacks of might with no problem at all the only thing he told me is he used the Fire Magic trait which helped with might

I don’t play my Ele a ton but he is level 80 and i would like to know how this is done so i can spec this way for dungeons and large PvE battles (maybe even WvW we will see)

Thanks for you help/input : )

I currently am working on making 5 characters 100% PvE and am on the home stretch all with 90%+ completion im working on my final builds for each profession and Engineer is making my head hurt

I was thinking about going Pistol/Shield however i feel like Pistol/Shield is not the best build if I am going to build Condition damage (rampagers/carrion havent decided) But i also like the aspect of being able to survive well with the toughness it takes to trait your shield.

Along with those concerns i dont know what i really want as Utils, as an asuran i usually go Technobabble, and Radiation field for the fact i can dodge into a zerg and lay area conditons with my f# skills. But without my shield this will become problematic as my 3rd utility i have been running net turret for the snares and Supply crate for another stun/snare along with increased damage.

Im wanting to try the 3x gernade kit along with conditions, im willing to lay down my shield and try Dual Pistols, but rifle is foreign to me 4/5 make it hard for me to learn it because they are positional skills good in certain postions

Let me know what you think I should do.

GW2 is as much a PvP game as it is a PvE at the end of the day you only have so many zones to do in PvE then the game is done. Sure you can say the dungeons are endgame content but lets be honest going through a dungeon 20 time to get your gear in 3-4 same paths is just a grind. after your geared then what do you do farm Orr for days. i think once your done with PvE (max gear + 100% completion) the logical thing to do is to get into the PvP scene wither thats sPvP or WvWvW. I would say embrace the fights in WvW since it isnt Orb oriented anymore. its about hey imma own this whole borderland if it takes me the whole day or not. I think territorial war is a good thing for WvW but extra mechanics like orbs are not outta the question fun.

Tallis -

On any (server name) borderland you have 3 ways out of your spawn if your in the south west or south east positions you can either go out north (main way) or you can go out the left and right to go to the respected supply camp it helps alot when being spawn camped. If you have never used those exits its hard to realise they are there but they are alive and well ready to be used

Instead of complaining about WvWvW distance I like to look at ways to boost my return times, every profession has some type of Speedboost so i like to find the most efficent way to stack swiftness and get to the fight sooner. On my Ele, Theif, Warrior i can get almost permanent speed if i use my skills/cooldowns right. however my Engineer and Mesmer need a little more work with that being said its ok to carry a warhorn (or another weapon) with you and switch to it while you are running back then switch to your regular set when you are coming to the battle. I dont enjoy dying and respawning but getting back is a breeze.
