Guild Wars 2

Nage.1520:

You don’t make karma gear salvageable so you can’t make cash from karma (at least not easily or well). You make the badges of honor not salvagable so you can’t make cash from badges of honor.

Sound reasoning.

Wow, I bet you forgot that Karma Armor comes with runes but the Armor for Badges doesn’t? I don’t even care about ectos or t6 materials, I just want my runes and sigils that I bought

100% this. wvw stuff comes without runes or sigils. I have to buy the upgrade, why can’t I just get it back if I salvage it with a black lions kit? it’s slightly different for karma gear, because it already comes with a rune in it, so it would have an impact on the economy but I don’t get why it’s impossible on wvw gear.

Please bring back the dropdown menu for swapping traits. It was a lot more user-friendly as it was before. You can leave the trait selection on the left side for new players but please bring back the fast swap drop down menu.

just got kicked out of my loading screen for spvp. gg

you pretty much gave him a zerg build with roaming weapons. Why would anyone take AH if you’re running solo? You get most out of that trait, if there are 5 ppl around you, so there’s no need to pick that if you’re looking into 1v1’s.

you are simply manipulating the outcome of this week. without the help of desolation, gandara would have had problems getting on second place. fact! I don’t say they couldn’t have done it by theirselfs but they would have had a hard time. it’s obvious that desolation is helping gandara atm to get on second place – this might be strategy, but this has nothing to do with sportsmanship in a league and doesn’t show how your server performed overall. so it’s manipulating and basically teaming up.

officially teaming up in a league – don’t know anything about sportsmanship. shame on gandara and desolation for being the worst servers eu

nice teaming up. gg season 1

Let me think… since I built an Infinite light for my main I have a pretty dang good idea what it takes to gather 250 charged lodestones… the people interested in making Juggernaut are feeling oppressed that they have to gather 250 of a rare item that costs less than half as much as a charged lodestone and drops from bags and jump puzzles.

Try farming Air Elementals in Orr for 2-3 months. I think you’ll find farming the appropriate bags for silver doubloons WAY more rewarding…

while I play my level 80 and not even try to farm charged lodestones I often find myself getting them alot. If it’s not a lodestone, you’ll get a core, which can be upgrade. while you still get easy gold you sitll have the possibilty to get that item. If you want silverdoubloons, you either have to farm your gold to buy them on tp, play the tp or level an alt and open jp chest on lvl 20-30, while rarely getting a silverdoubloon + getting 0 reward items. now…oh wait.

I opened 15 JP chests today. Didn’t get a single one. Continues Coins ftw…

teaming up is what wvw was made for

I parked a charakter with level 21 on a JP chest for 7 days now. 1 Silverdoubloon, 6 continue coins. -.-

Seems like BB got fun with their underpopulated Smallscaleserver SE GAME XD

it also works for me with a lvl 21 char.(JP) do you find to get more silverdoubloons with pebbles or lumps?

oh yeah. forgot BaBa is a small scale server

I just don’t understand all that emoticon kitten (especially laughing) while standing on walls with huge numbers before getting facerolled. bad manners BaBu

Nike.2631:

Park a character in the appropriate level range (about 19-29 IIRC) at a jump puzzle chest and log in and open that chest every day. Silver doubloons will trickle in. Multiply this by as many characters as you care to or spend some time going from chest to chest.

Wait, so what? Do I have to park with a 19-29 character at a 19-29 area’s chest? Or is the character level irrelevant? I just tried picking the chest with a 65 lvl char in Snowden Drifts JP and i got sapphire crystal or something. I’m lost

I will bring some clarity to this …

Park a level 21-29 character at an Lion’s Arch JP and farm the chest every day at reset. You are guaranteed a gem or crest and if it is a rare, you can get a silver doubloon (sometimes a gold). I have three characters doing this every day. I also salvage the other stuff for Essence and mats. It’s a win/win. Level 19 and 20 characters does not work … they only gives copper doubloon from my testing.

The MF recipe has already been mentioned and it’s also very good. I have always come out ahead of my costs when I do this … i.e., it can make you money. I prefer the 3 pebble/1 lump version.

These are only rare for one reason … people don’t know how easy it is to make or set themselves up to farm them.

Ahhh at last a good use for my stupid useless ele

oh gz for having a character on that level. Only takes you a minimum of 250 days to get every single one of them

tit u uzzzzzz ei potatoo tu ricord sizzz?

stop giving him advices how you play and bla… he simply asked how to get those high numbers and the answer is trait for it (damage modifiers).
Use this as a roamer build but please, never ever enter a zerg with it, for the sake of your fellow players :p

don’t forget you get + 20% crit chance via fury + 250 points for the sigil which makes you end up at around 80% (don’t think that page saves these stats)

5 pages long.. still reading the same kitten. last week we got skill lag errday but less crying in the forum. not sure what I miss more.
AM should honestly tell people to play less wvw this week, so the pro guilds wamgor was talking about might have some fun or mr. wamgor should call all his PUG pro roflstomper guilds and get on the battlefield. dear mr. forum warrior: it’s time for some real shizzz

btw., I like this song:

we got golem rushed by ER last week. 18 alphas, 2 omegas. they couldn’t bring more because there weren’t enough mesmers to port them. oh wait… did I mention their big zerg? that’s how the game is :P

stop crying. it’s always the same with those EU servers :p

already miss last week

I really understand that this week is going to be hard for FSP and AG. Maybe our zergs decrease during the week because of the good weather. We we where in a similar situation last week, where we faced elonas reach. They often outmanned us but we still didn’t give up. Even if the actual score doesn’t look that good, the final rating on mos might tell a different story …

I think i speak for the majority when i say we dont care about rating, we just want some good fights. Atleast that what my guild wants, and btw as far as i know you guys havent given us those good fights in the past.

then you should stay out of wvw for this week and hope for a better matchup next week. don’t blame our server, blame the matchmaking.

so you never had a matchup where you felt that you were outnumbered? seems like the new matchmaking still sucks. have fun playing against higher tier’s and keep on crying in this forum and on the weekly match-up threads…. oh and don’t forget to constantly check the professions sub-forum to create another QQ thread.
you’re both losing, because you lack players during day time. fact!
resolution: stop crying, wait for a new match up + new placement.
dear lord…

we don’t complain about blobbing. we have seen it on every server we faced. it’s just the fact that most of the players try to tell that beautiful story that blobbadon is the only server that blobs. blob blob blobadiblob

@ Pala… I didn’t ask for help

oh thanks for bringing it up. this is obviously not a game based problem, it’s got more to do with nationalites. thank you very much for bringing it up mr. gandara.

so much tears in 250+ posts it almost makes me sad :’(

learned everything from past week. baruchs blobs are insane 24/7 :p

differences between AM and BB are that BB got their big guild teams + those 24/7 blobs :p

oh..totally forgot about that. it’s better to stay away from some bosses aoe. In those cases you should have a scepter. auto attack dmg is ok, skill #2 does also a good amount of dmg + the immobilze on scepter #3 helps in some situation ( dredge fractals e.g). But for the “trash mobs” you can go with my build which is in the link.

( I also tend to use GS on the boss fight in the uncategorized fractal (asura) just because of bindinge blades (skill #5) to get all 4 robots on one spot so that your group can nuke them with aoe)

Renewed Focus sometimes doesn’t refresh my virtues (+ gets on cooldown) if I’ll do a dodge roll at the end of it. Anyone else got this problem?

I’m not sure if you can watch the video if you don’t have a twitch account..

I’m a bit more on the offense side + giving boons to my allies. If you know the dungeons/fractals you’re good to go.

Before a fight give might stacks and cast your protection skills, don’t forget your F3, use Staff #5 for your advantage. Change wall of reflection to save yourselfs if you don’t need it (depending on the dungeon/boss/mob) and also switch your staff if you think you’re better off with your greatsword. Switch things, learn when and where it’s better to have certain skills/weapons.

Have fun http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/guardian/?3.0|c.1g.h2.e.1g.h1|1.1g.h2|1g.71g.1g.71g.1c.71h.1g.71h.1c.bw.1g.bw|2s.0.2t.0.3s.0.2u.0.2v.0.2u.0|0.u6ab.k69.a2.a6|0.0|v.16.11.19.1i|e

Your elite would have won that last fight for sure…

fix it fix it fix it fix it fix FIIIIX IT!

don’t know why u even complain. it’s blob vs blob. wxp smoothed the way for blobbing. u should thank arenanet. at least, that’s what I’m doing.

So … hey. You’re showing us how you perma evade and stack bleeds vs the class who’s got the worst condition removal. great job :>

UNCONTESTED ON VIZUNAH SQUARE[FR]… (EU).Guess it’s always good to look on a french server, since most of them won’t look into the english forum

mesmer is fine as it is now. I’m stacking 8 stacks confusion on ppl just to see that they can handle the condition with spamming skills and don’t even worry about the conditions. that’s what most of these people wanted. smashing buttons without thinking. Seems like the mesmer is balanced now, at least for condition builds :>

this, except the damage part and plus “survivable ressurector”

not sure if serious or troll. my zerkers and blurred frenzy hits like a truck. auto attacks on 1,5k minimum isn’t that bad either. I don’t see the point going into more support then actually needed. you just slow down your whole group/ dungeon run whatever. If you’ve got a bad group that gets downed 24/7 and you need to rezz them alot of times it’s not your fault your failing, it’s theirs.

go full support in fractal 40+ and you will end up being in it for 4hours+ . :p

It annoys me people who always say GO DPS GO DPS…..

Let people build their character the way they want to.
I am a tank Mesmer, I can solo tank even lupi.
I dont do much damage, but I can survive anything.
It my character and I will build it how I want to.

So I am the tank in my guild and we got a couple healers and the rest love going full dps.

Which, with me and 4 of are dps. None of them die at all. But with a full team of dps they die like freaking crazy.

Also with me, they pretty much never even get hit. So they dont gotta run around and wast time. They can just stand and nuke the mobs.

Tank?
Healer?
Are we playing the same game???
I would also say that people trying to heal the group picked the wrong game. This game is all about dodging damage, playing smart, cc enemies, debuff them, buff the group WHILE dealing a good amout of dmg.
There is really no right or wrong, but there are different ways to play your class. Different ways that helps the group overall, or that prevents you from getting 2 shotted (because you picked pure vita thoughness).
All I’m saying is that you can feel the difference if every member of the group deals dmg or if single players just deal half the dmg they could.

“I’ve always had trouble with confusion mesmers and engineers. I don’t want to QQ here, but I believe that from my personal experiences, Confusion can be extremely punishing, dare I say, overpowered when there are multiple stacks tacked on. I’m sure many people don’t even realize they have Confusion on them until it’s too late and they’ve spammed a buttload of abilities.”

So this includes someone doesn’t know the game and has to learn to play. Simply as it is, learn the game.

stop playing with invisibility in pve? I don’t know… the whole invisibilty thing is good for pvp and wvw. pistol offhand gives you alot more group support and ability to blind your foe so he won’t deal dmg + you’re getting pretty big numbers with pistol whip and unload.
I changed my pve build sometime ago and I am very happy with the result. I haven’t played my thief in WvW since the last patch, but I guess the revealed debuff buff (lol) is a pretty big impact on the gameplay.

I’m doing fractals on 30+ and other dungeons without any problems. you should sometimes look over the rim of a tea cup.

Minor trait 5 and 15 in Dueling gives you vigor and bleeds (from illusions) on crits. While not running around in a big group, you mostly change your build to 0/20/30/0/20 or 0/20/20/0/30 or sth. similar. which is personal preference. but you pick up 20 points in dueling most of the time for getting clones on dodge and shorter cooldown on the sword for leap, blurred frenzy, mirror images and spike confusion dmg via shatters.

“dunno i don t play pvp but in pve is meh :/”

sword #2 aoe dmg + invul … oh wait, yeah it’s bad in any part of the game :>

Are you able to fraps a fractal run with your build? No commentary needed. I just want to see it in action Thx

"

The only problem I have with stealth is how easy it is for thieves to get away. But that isn’t exclusive to thieves. I see just as many Mesmers and Eles running and getting way with 3-5 people chasing.

Hell I see a couple rangers doing it. Kinda funny."

I love it when a group of players try to chase me around half of the map. Even if I die I can still laugh at them, because they wasted a lot of time, chasing a single player. It’s even more funny if you lure them into your zerg. Keep on chasing <3
