Guild Wars 2

Same goes for the nevermore arm effect, but more around the elbow area

I think the collection rewards is the precursor armor. If i recall right it says something similiar to this “Choose a set of precursor armor”. Not sure though

Malediktus.9250:

I am horrible with JPs, but the sad truth is that ley line run is one of the easiest adventure to get gold on. Silver should be a cake walk. If you cannot do this easy challenge you quite frankly do not deserve the legendary.
I also fail to see how you spent 100 hours on the collection (in addition to the gold for the materials). Doing the nevermore collections takes like 1 or 2 evenings if you have the materials.

Completely agree with this. I mean, i understand soloing hero points in Hot is hard and might be a pain in the kitten but this. This adventure might take 10 minutes tops to get silver on and it doesen’t even require any kind of reflex. There is no rush at all. Just walk a bit and press 1 into the yellow thingy, jump, walk a bit, press 3 a few times, and boom, your done. So my question is, did you even try? Or did you just fail once and then post this? Did you watch a video but couldn’t replicate the actions on your screen? When you meet a veteran in the open world do you also post it on the forums?

Soz just gets me mad when people complain about stuff without even trying.

Nah, there is a post called “Legendary weapons” which has 2793 replies. You can read plenty about it there.

I don’t know kappa

Title says it all^^. Has anet said anything about this?

I’m almost ddddgiving up playing this game since the last updates didn’t even mention the legendary backpiece or the new set of legendary wepons….I was really hoping some info on that for months by now. I appreciate the works with gliding on Tyria and shattererd etc but i still want to finish crafting the so anticipated backpiece AND a new legendary greatsword, which i know weren’t announced and could not come in the next set of wepons but, hey what is the reason you guys can’t say a wonrd on this topic?
At least tell us there will be no wepons on the next following months so we can have our expectations down a bit

Except that they said 2 days ago that Ad Infinitum will be completable in the Spring update.

Do you remember where you read that?

Try contacting the support

Legendary armor will probably be released with the third raidwing. At least you will get all the precursor armor then, because the legendary armor collection will be complete able.

Well i have 34 insights only from pugging and i’m gonna get 6 more this week. Just have some patience and some kind of social activity .

If you don’t kill the boss, that means someone messed up. Tell that person what to focus on and if he doesen’t listen get rid of him. Sooner or later, by improving your group you should kill him.

They are currently working on an lfg for raids if i remember correctly, and as Randomguy said, you don’t need a commander to start a raid. Just press create in the top left party tab and a squad will be created so you can enter the raid.

Yea it’s on the way

Btw after i use celestial avatar once it turns back to normal.

Sometimes my celestial avatar icon becomes super big. Usually after some transformation of some kind where i get new/no skills, like after a guild race or after Matthias has sacrificed me.

After guild race^.

Can we just put all the information we got about slothasor in a thread here? Feel free to put your thoughts and ideas how to kill him aswell. I’ll start.

So all we know atm is that someone takes the imbued mushroom to turn into a slubling and then he will have to eat the red mushrooms(which removes posion on the ground,creating a path) towards the next imbued mushroom spawn. So you have to kite him around in between the 4 imbued mushroom spawns. I think the kill should take 2 laps, so 8 imbued mushrooms.

Also there is a buff which appears randomly on players which gives them the aggro of slothasor. There is also another random buff which first puts like a rat skeleton icon above your head and when it dissapears, a poison cloud will appear beneath your feet and will get bigger over time. Also at 75%,50% and (25%) you have to cc him because he goes back to sleep.

While your fighting Slothasor adds will appear during the entire fight called “slublings” these will shoot ranged attacks which do loads of damage. Their projectiles are also reflect able and destroy able so we used revenant tablets + some reflects to deal with them.

This is pretty much all the information we gathered during our 2 hour run(we only got him to 50%). So anyone has any ideas or tactics to take him down the whole way? Any mechanics that i’m missing or mechanics that will appear when we take him to lower health?

Anyone know when they will release the last step of the legendary fractal backpack? Is it gonna come with the second raid wing? I mean, they announced the legendary backpack with hot, and if they release it in mars it will be half a freakin year after hot release:O They can’t possible postpone it more than to mars right?

StormRage.6435:

Why Anet? Why would you make such a gold sink for an armor set that looks EXACTLY the same as the old ascended gear. What a pathetic design. There is absolutely no point in crafting the new gear. Unfortunately, I learned this too late.

Well, if you, for example, have a zerker ele, you’d probably want to craft a brand new condi armor for your necro instead of simply converting your ele armor (unless you want to delete the character). Also, I have both ascended celestial set and zerker set on my ele, because crafting celestial armor is timegated so I don’t want to just convert it to zerker stats.

So yeah, there is a point in crafting new gear

No, what you do is craft a new set of ascended armor, soldier or some cheap stuff and then you convert that to the new stat you want. Way cheaper than actually crafting the new stat armor

It would be abused so no.

Well next expansion is far away so i wouldn’t bother about asking questions more than to hot

Honestly, i think a game like this needs some challenging world events, without any type of challenge all we ever do is tab down watch some youtube then tabbing up again to see that our autoattack is still running, Even though we do this we still are eligible for the nice loot which just motivates you to do it again. Less work but the same reward. And overcoming hard challenges together is fun. Afking for loot is not. I think anet really needs to stop succumbing to these people saying events are to hard when they haven’t really tried themselves. And honestly what harm does 1 or 2 hard world events out of hundreds easy ones? But nope Anet just had to make it easier than kindergarden.

I met steve awhile ago in tangled depths, on the chak gerent meta. Back when it was hard ofcourse. Back then people communicated because they were trying to beat it. It’s just so nice to see people actually communicate and celebrating in the map chat when the bosses are killed. They are happy because they succeded with something hard. Maybe they got the chak eggs they needed to make their chak weapon or their mistward helm lining. It doesen’t matter because they get some kind of emotion rather than it is now. Map chat is as empty as a desert and when you kill the boss you don’t yell hurray you just go and loot the chest and get the hell out of there.

I completely agree with Steve, this weakens the social aspect of the game.

I was thinking, when legendary armor comes out, the stats swap we’ll be pretty useless since runes/sigils need to be replaced if you switched build. So my thoughts is, wouldn’t it be cool if they added so that either Runes and sigils on legendary items can be swappable without any items or anything. Just move it out of the legendary into your bag. Second option would be to make that runes are associated with your stats, So if you add your rune of the ranger to your legendary item when it has zerker stats, always when you switch to zerker stats it will have rune of the ranger there and if you switch to any other stats there won’t be any rune there unless you add one.

I just think either of these options would make legendary armor far more viable. So that you really get good value from obtaining legendary armor.

For all of those people complaining how hard adventures are. Use this^

I just found out by browsing the wikipedia. Have they been there since hot? and is it true, is it leveling gear(atleast that’s how i understood it)?

Legend pve backpack = timegated, Legend pvp backpack = timegated, Golden fractal skins = timegated(only 3 boxes with chance to get em a day). Shouldn’t there be content worth farming or atleast something to do that lasts more than one hour? Since some of these items are my major priority right now, i find myself just logging in doing dailies and logging out, and what’s the fun in that. It also makes me forced to play fracs and pvp every day instead of me being able to play fracs or pvp for a whole day when i feel like it with friends and still being eligible for nice loot.

Of course not, all the rating are belong to Car Trash.

Serious answer: did you play ranked or unranked? Give the system an hour or two, it might not update instantly.

well we played ranked ofc, but we are only 4 people, maybe we need a full team?

When me and my friends win with our guild team we don’t gain any rating. We just won 2 in a row and our rating didn’t move a bit. Anyone know why?

Electro.4173:

Its the “Melee Attack Assist” checkbox in the options menu under combat / movement. Uncheck it and it’ll get rid of the “collision” area.

Thanks man:)

My settings in gw2 reseted a while ago, and i thought i’d turned everything back to normal. But i found out that big enemies (gorseval or bloomhunger) has collision areas for me. It’s like they have a big square around them that i can’t go through. Anybody know how to fix this? I think i recall this is some kind of setting, but i can’t find it anywhere.

Early next year huh. Hopefully it will be released with the second raid wing then:)

If the above statement is true, when is it introduced?

“Ad Infinitum is the first legendary back item to be introduced into the game with the expansion Heart of Thorns and is not available in the game at the moment.”

I’m about to get the precursor to ad infinitum (unbound) and then i saw on the wiki that there is no more information on how to get the gift of fractals and gift of infinity to upgrade it to ad infinitum, does anybody know how to get them?

If you don’t appriciate raids ect. The new collections and meta events are very entertaining. I usually find weapons and armor pieces that i wan’t (for example chak weapons and bladed armor) and then i try my best to get them

Title says it all^^

I have a very weird issue that i have no idea how to solve. I am playing on mac, EU servers, it worked great yesterday. i was playing fine today too but was kicked for server connectivity problems and I get the" can´t connect to log-in servers" when i try to start the game again, at the same time the guildwars2.com page won’t load. After about an hour and a half the guildwars2.com page finally loaded. So i thought maybe i should try log in now. It worked but was kicked, just like before after about 20 min and the issue remains. Now the problem isn´t my internet as i can do other stuff, like youtube, reddit. Can´t log in to the forum either so I’m having my friend post this. Would be very glad for some help, if it makes sense to anyone, sure as hell dosen´t for me.

Which class/build should i play to rank up the easiest in the new pvp system? (Haven’t played pvp that much)

Does anyone know any good sigils for a healer/tank druid?:)

The title says it all, which do you guys think will be most wanted/most effective for raids.

Does anyone have any clue when the raids weekly reward is gonna reset? I recall they were something like wednesday on wow.

Hakuryuu.8634:

I am entitled to my VB Meta rewards but those raiders are not entitled to the entrance – they have the LFG tool. ANet, this is a real problem that needs to be addressed immediately.

Well, the thing is the lfg tool does not work for squads, that’s why you get people to the entrance too invite them. If this is fixed, the problem will probably go away as well.

Hey, i was just wondering if there are any raiding guilds or something that knows what they are doing and are recruiting. If there are alot of people that wants to create a squad from scratch that will do aswell. I’m a lvl 80 druid with full ascended cleric armor btw. I just want good people to raid with:) ( If this is the wrong place to post this feel free to remove it^^)

Nekomi.9562:

Phase 1:
Tank hugs the side of the pillar.
Have all DPS stack on the mushroom you’re fighting in.
Have your 4 Condi focus Green AoE.
Have your mesmer focus the seekers (Temporal Curtain? Skill)
so they stack far away and explode while others like warrior can use WILD BLOW to move them away if they get too close to the mushroom.

Phase 2: You split up your group into parties of
4: Blue Boon Strippers and CC
3: Green DPS and CC
3: Red CONDI and CC

Phase 3: Pretty straight forward…
Immediately CC and lure onto RED then as soon as the AoE on green vanishes move there otherwise you’re stuck with GREEN AoE in the AoE wipe. Repeat in a circle.

Phase 4: Same as Phase 2

Phase 5: Same as phase 3 just now It’s Green/Blue, Blue/Red Red/Green rotations.

So you should stack on the speed shrooms?

And also so the perfect party would be something like 4 condis, 1 mesmer with boon strips, 1 druid and 4 dps?

Yea i agree, this needs to be added

This will be fixed if they do an lfg for raids, it’s way easier than moving the raid to an own instance.

Raelag Arkhen.6347:

Nah, there are 5 phases

It’s gonna be a loooong day

maddoctor.2738:

In phase 3 the one that has the attention of the boss needs to kite him from floor area to floor area because the floor will start glowing and deal about 2k damage per second to anyone standing on it. The entire blue/red/green glows at a time, so you need to kite the boss to another part of the floor because if the green circle spawns on the glowing part of the floor it’s a raid wipe. Even if the team manages to get to it in time, they will die by the damage over time.

Also, keep in mind that the damage is armor ignoring, but doesn’t scale with your vitality, it’s always 2k damage, so some characters with high vitality/health might be able to survive it. If someone is downed on the glowing floor, it’s best to ignore them, if you go to save them, you will also die, unless you have good healing/health.

So in summary the special mechanic of phase 3 is the electrified floor that you need to avoid. The electric orb attack is easy to dodge/avoid and you only have to CC him to break the breakbar to continue the fight, that’s more easily manageable, the glowing floor is the main issue.

In other words, phase 3 is also the last phase? (Thanks for answer btw)

Good ds maps aren’t hard to get. And you can affect the meta event. If you know what to do, you have to communicate and learn people what to do. This is very important for meta events.

So this is what i know about him.

Phase 1

Just kite him around in one of the 3 zones while at the same time stacking in all the green areas that pop outs. When he hits 55-60% phase 2 starts.

Phase 2

Split into 3 groups as soon as he becomes invuln. 1 group for each zone. Blue,green and red. 1 guardian will spawn in each zone that every group needs to face. Going out of your area after you have been assigned to it will cause damage on you, so you can barely help other groups.

Blue group: Needs a guy with boon strips(pref mesmer) and needs to be atleast 3 people to take all the green areas in the zone.

Green group: Needs high dps as the only thing that guardian does is teleport you.

Red group: Needs condition damage, cause that’s the only thing that will damage him.

Phase 3

I think phase 3 is like phase 1 but with added mechanics(you still have to keep running for all the green areas)
The only new thing i know about this phase is you should cc him when he does an attack where he shoots electric balls over the entire map. He pretty much kills us all pretty instantly so i don’t know anything more about phase 3. We have only been alive for 30 seconds max in that phase. Can anyone fill me in about phase 3 and the rest of the boss?:P Would really appreciate it.
