Guild Wars 2

When using the new Unbound gathering tools when your inventory is full, the unbound magic you gather also appears in the ‘unclaimed loot’ window, despite not being an item that goes into the inventory.

I sometimes accidentally target something I don’t want – and I’m not talking about just clicking on a mob/player/npc, I mean when there’s a bright, distracting red target on them. Esc doesn’t deselect, and neither does clicking on the screen anywhere. How do I undo this? >-<

Thanks for the suggestions. I’ve now got full exotic and weapons, berserker stats with the sigils and runes suggested. I changed the traits as suggested as well. I’m going to try it out in Verdant Brink, and maybe try the trap skills out to see if they help with those mobs. The quest for a Tiger begins!

Thanks for the replies! I’ll try to get a Tiger, Lynx, or Jaguar to accompany me on the quest for a Bristleback. Fluffball (awesome name btw), what do you mean by ‘power-based defense’?

I have Druid unlocked, but not all of it is trained yet – I have up through ‘Live Vicariously’ trained.

I’m trying to level up my HoT masteries and such, but I have a terrible time on those maps. I’ve always been pretty bad at builds on mmo’s, so hopefully someone can give me a few tips. It’s all over the place right now, so sorry in advance.

My Playstyle:
I like to use brute force the most, but I like the range and pet mechanics of the ranger class. I’m not opposed to using conditions to help me out, I just don’t like to rely on them as the focus of my damage. That’s it, basically. I almost exclusively play PvE, and would love a build/equipment that allows me to play in the HoT maps without constantly dying. I know there’s plenty of guides out there, and I’ve looked at them, but I wanted to ask here first, too, before I sink some gold

This is such a nice idea for a thread.
I’m a relatively new player, but I’m dying for more bank space! I haven’t got the money right now to get any gems for a bank tab though, so I’m stuck with the first one only. I’d love for even just one more tab!
