Where to find Ascalon Aetherblades?

Another cache farmer here. I feel I’ve done my part to make Ascalon safer from these pirates who were guarding chests in remote, hard-to-access parts of the world.

Worst color combination ever?

I assume he’s a fan of the San Diego Chargers’ alternate jersey.

New Customiseable Dailies

While I love the idea of customizable dailies, I don’t like that there are some PVP ones (Kill mist invaders) mixed in with the PVE list.

Before, all the PVE dailies were tailored strictly to PVE objectives from what I saw.

You’re killing me.

Is it seriously impossible not to swap?

You have the right to chose to be less useful. People have a right to chose who they group with; they might decide to base that on usefulness.

Anti-RP and basic hate

People be hatin’. ANet hasn’t set up roleplaying rules servers, so it’s clear that at this point they won’t be stepping in (unless the harassment reaches a certain stage). I mean, it’s like when I gamed in my high school cafeteria: you ignore them and don’t let them ruin your fun.

GW2 on linux? Steam onboard.

Steam is doing it because why willfully ignore 5% of the market share that you know are interested in computers?

Dodge Daily and Lower Level Zones

Golems all over the Asura starting zones are wonderful. Their barrage and spin are both easy to see and give multiple Evades with one dodge.

GUARDIAN CANNOT DO THIS ACHIEVEMENT BECAUSE HE HAS ONLY 2 COMBO FINISHERS WICH MAKE AURAS, NOT DAMAGE! THANK YOU ANET, AGAIN.

Whirling wrath creates projectiles which cure conditions = it does not count
leap of faith finisher creates auras = does not do extra damage = does NOT count into this achievement

So, thank you for your try.

Try a non-light field.

Uhhh you might want to revise your reward. Apparently the gold buyer detection algorithm is lazy and will automatically and permanently ban accounts of characters that receive large sums of gold in the mail with no investigation. So you might end up getting the winner banned.

Where’d you come by this information?

Replayable without Grind - The Magic of GW1

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Thread pretty much hits the nail on the head for my interest in GW1. For me it was the rabbit hole of skills and gear. “Oh, I need to go here to get that elite I want to do this. Well, it’s easiest to do that area with this build and that build works best with this piece of gear I can get from this guy. Farming this guy works best if I have this skill for my hero…” And poof, I spent a week’s worth of playing time without repeating the same dungeon over and over.

Purp and yellow (iris and lemon shades most of the time, depending on the exact armor).

GW2 is not living up to its potential

While I agree that, so far, I consider GW2 to be the inferior product to GW1, this is based upon looking at a complete first game and comparing it to a two-month old game. That’s simply unfair.

The only solution is to wait while they put the meat onto this skeleton. Fortunately, this game has no subscription, so it’s possible to simply take some time off and explore the new content once it’s out.

I hated and didn’t do jumping puzzles before this, but it being seasonal, I felt obligated.

I rejoined until I got one without charr or big ol’ norn. Me and a bunch of the others formed a sort of support group and became quite good pals, all rooting each other on and giving advice at certain parts. Ended up being a couple of hours to finish that I didn’t really mind spending. A fine evening all told.

Why is GW2 so Stingy with the Titles?

City of Heroes had a “title” you could equip for every achievement, even easy ones like exploration. It was fun planning out your badge title as part of your character concept.

Yes, being able to roleplay with your title was great. An asura mesmer doesn’t have the same title needs as a charr warrior.

Warhammer Online had great titles. Tons of them through a huge variety of tasks. And the “coolness” of a title didn’t really have anything to do with its rarity. I’d go out and collect the titles, just like anything else can be collected in an MMO.
