This was in the patch preview:
Your personal fractal difficulty and reward level is being made account-wide! Starting with the Fractured release, you can attempt high level fractals on a new character without needing to level up all over again.
I killed the 3 bosses once and then upon killing them again, I couldn’t get the chest, and in fact I didn’t even get a champ bag to drop. Is it really character daily for this stuff?
The generators that explode at the clockheart boss room, can you just remove them completely when they die so there is nothing at all to collide into? Your post suggests you are going to make them into boxes with collision which will give us less room to move.
Yep, thanks for putting content easily ruined by afk people and trolls in open world, making it so only large guilds and groups can complete them by hijacking overflows or home worlds for themselves to avoid having the people mentioned above – by effectively creating instances for themselves. Causing those people to go in any real overflow and making this event near impossible to finish there.
If you intended to make a raid content, just make a raid content. Instanced and with the instruments to kick afk people, trolls and people who aren’t willing to work for a goal.
Otherwise avoid ruining other open world events.
Because while i like a challenge, i don’t like seeing a couple random people being able to ruin it for an hundred other ones.
Me and many others on JQ killed Teq 8+ times, but currently a lot of trolls and afkers have invaded our homeland. A lot also won’t come on TS.
If you are serious about a Teq kill, come guest on the server “Gate of Madness” (we picked this place because it is empty) and join ts.jadequarry.com we are in Malicious Intent channel.
Like I said, we already know the strat and have killed it many times, we just need bodies who will listen, so come join us in TS!
i agree… ive been saying no1 should feel accomplished killing it. ive been in for 4 teq kills, and 2 of them had a minute+ left. i could have sat afk the whole time and hit him for 2 seconds to get the reward.
Below is my actual story of killing teq that just happened.
I spent about 35 minutes spamming Join in Sparkfly Fen to get into the main server. I finally got in and Teq had 3 minutes left and about 20% HP. I killed him, got a bunch of dragon chests with nothing good, but I got like 3 achievements, yay!
Just so everyone knows I feel 0 sense of accomplishment, and if I legitimately was there learning the fight and spent all 15mins there, I still wouldn’t have. A heroic raid encounter in open world is a stupid zerg fest. WoW heroic raids are actual accomplishments. You are part of a small team there and what you do actually matters. You can’t feel accomplishment in a zerg. You being there really has no actual impact.
Teq is just extremely frustrating. I’m sure you guys are looking at data and seeing it fail 99% of the time. Only a few hundred people downed him on specific servers and mostly on main servers, not overflows.
I’ve enjoyed all the previous living world updates except this months. Trib mode/ World 2 was extremely long, and painful… and now this.
I can’t believe you would put 2 updates this frustrating in the same month. I’ll wait for octobers updates to play again and I’m sure many others will also.
there is a difference between unfair and unpolished broken gameplay. i guess the checkpoint in w2z2 should stay inside spikes then since its unfair according to the people of this thread.
i consider these pixel jumps buggy for asuran characters, period.
im not sure why the fanboys of this forum section defend such buggy unpolished content. there are over 1000 IWBTG fan games that are properly made and challenging. IWBTGW2 is simply broken. this is also the only precision platformer where latency actually will ruin your experience. single player games i run on my pc dont have internet latency.
There are far too many pixel jumps in tribulation mode and with the game engine + complications of lag, it creates a very unfun experience.
Clearly this was made to be 3D IWBTG, and in IWBTG, you lose your 2nd jump if you leave the platform, basically teaching you to jump while ON platforms. GW2 for the reason of either 1) lag or 2) the game engine, had you jump after leaving the platform. This really isn’t logical… I can’t jump IRL if I run off a cliff.
I doubt Josh or someone is going to go in and redo all the pixel jumps, but hopefully for the future you give more breathing room.
does all the baubles in the zone INCLUDE the dig sites or is it just the baubles that are randomly out in the world? how about baubles you get by breaking objects? do chest baubles count as well?
Like before, I’ll throw out the caveat that I’m not claiming that the SAB team is that master craftsman pushing the medium forward in dramatic brilliant ways. Only that we are THINKING about the design choices we make, we recognize when we are breaking rules, and we have a reason for doing so. Because SAB exists within the ecosystem of Guild Wars 2 it’s not going to be an exact replica of IWTBTG. We’re a hybrid, and that brings lots of interesting challenges with it. I’m sure we’ll learn a lot from this first TM release, and incorporate those lessons into the next round.
Josh, do you actually play IWBTG and IWBTG fangames? I suggest you find a game called “I wanna be the preference” and tell me how much you enjoy it. It is so hard that I haven’t seen it beaten.
Um I’m going to need to rephrase this question I think.
So I stopped playing for 10months and when I came back most groups only want Warrior/Mesmer/Guardian. I want to know I guess the DPS ranking of the other 5 classes? Specifically is engineer the lowest dps (people won’t take engineer it seems)? Ele seems to be slightly accepted. Necro/thief/ranger, no idea here.
Basically enlighten me on the knowledge I lost from not playing for 10 months.
almonster, going off colin’s reply, im going to tell you to L2P. obviously what you need is an engineer with sup runes of speed, swiftness, combat shoes, and slick shoes(toolbelt skill). essentially doing this encounter without an engineer=failure.
It is amazing how much people complain over. I havent reached 80 and iam having a blast with the game. The repetition is only there if you want all the epic sets. And this post wanst about the grind. It was about keeping the content hard.
I would rather ask them to drop the price in the tokens than make it easier for you to grind.
I havent even grasped all the content in the game, iam working towards 100% map completition before goin crazy for dungeons and wvw. There is way too much content for 60$.
But lets keep the topic in track, DO NOT NERF hard content please
DKP and araditcus, once MOP comes out, ull have no one to show your 1337 armor off to since everyone will be back playing wow. hope its worth it. ill give u guys a golf clap for beating these alpha stage dungeons… these dungeons aren’t even in beta.
