Where’s the -1 button?

Although my +1 to your -1 would imply a zero sum, when in fact the intention of my +1 is to support your -1 leaving a -2.

Dailies and Monthlies are easier because you have more than 5 options to do them. I completed this monthly completely by accident and a lot of people who don’t do them on purpose are still completing them anyway.

This means more mystic coins in the system and so the price has been steadily dropping every since the multiple option daily/monthly was introduced.

Precursor prices manipulated badly

Part of the problem that leads folks to think there is manipulation is that we don’t have any trade information; we only get to see bids and asks quotes. Did a precursor get bought and relisted or did someone buy the lowest sell order and now only the 900G one is left, or did someone buy the low priced one and a different person list the 900G one? There’s no way to tell with the information we have.

The timing of events tells us very little definitively.

Seems there is an issue with people just skimming and scanning on lfg and not reading what the post said. So I will make this quick and explained what happened.

Basically, we were looking for experienced players, not to be elitist but to get the job done quick. No exploits, no mob skipping, just knowing where the aoe is, etc etc.

In the post we said, " be experienced or be kicked, you’ve been warned "

We had a warrior who kept dying, giving him the benefit of the doubt we asked if he ran the path before, he said no. He was kicked.

He then whispered each and every single one of us, giving us death threats and insane amount of profanity, claiming he’d have us banned.

We found another person, who then again said they never ran the path, this person was kicked, but unlike the person before us, he didn’t atagonize us, instead he called us griefers / get us banned.

45 Agony resistance for level 40-48 fractals

Posted by: Pinch.4273

Pinch.4273

Generally speaking, it’s not enough at all you will die very very quickly with 45 AR.

You’ll take 18% HP/sec with 45 AR. Jade Maw won’t even kill you if you have full health, because his ticks 8 times.

As for 40-48 in general, you can do it with as little as 20 and a stacked group (Guardians). You can do it with 1 Guadian + a few resses with 30, and You can do it with just 1 Guardian or a utility res at 40.

Just run, don't fight...

The most annoing is fight with a large pack of mobs with high health polls, high DPS and 0 combat mechanics just to obtain 2 grey item and 1 blue.

PPl only fight trash for 2 reasons: 1) necessary to progress in dungeon (like dredge in frac) 2) loot. If mobs are a waste of time ppl just run.

Starting with a continue coin?

in Super Adventure Box

Posted by: Leablo.2651

Leablo.2651

It’s a “Super Coin”, not a continue coin. I’m not really sure what its purpose is, but basically if you’re holding one at the start, it means last time you left the instance manually, without a game over, and your life/health will be restored to the previous amount.

Which doesn’t really make sense to me since you get free lives anyway after a game over. I’m guessing though that they might have changed the SAB entry rules to make it more accessible than originally planned. Possibly they used to require a Continue Coin to play at all, then this system would make more sense.

Bauble achievements should be changed, IMO

Yeah, we had a hard mode in, but had to pull it because it was tanking the perf on the server. So we are building some new tech to accommodate it. If we have another release it will have a hard mode option for sure. We are literally working on it this week.

Hm… sounds fun. Not sure how this could fit into our current plans, but I’ll think about it. I’m a HUGE fan of the original LoZ. It is THE game that made me realize what my career should be. I’m actually in the process of doing a personal remake of it with photographic art. I’ve been sculpting the creatures over the past several years as a hobby. You can check them out here:

That’s right. Best update ever since the game was released. and there was no need to add any tier gear, or gear grind.

THIS is what I’m looking for in a good, creative, fun game. THIS will keep me logging in and playing…not gear grind. THIS kind of thing will entice me to keep buying GW2 related things…because it’s different, creative, intelligent, and fun. It’s not the same old same old with MMO’s.

Thank you ArenaNet for finally listening to many of us. I hope any further Ascended/tear gear is tabled in favor of more great content like this. Let us keep our Backpieces and accessories…but there is no need to add weapons or armor.

Keep this kind of thing going!

Best. Commercial. Ever.

I absolutely love this event. When I discovered you could break pots in the shops I just about died laughing because it reminded me of playing Ocarina of Time. Well done, Anet.

Indeed… it’s small things like these that really make you respect the devs..

I mean really, this is the most fun i’ve had in a long time in any mmorpg. I don’t see a reason this event should be taking away but multiple reasons and ways for it to expand and be apart of the Guild Wars 2 world.

People love this, the skins are awesome and you’ve spent quite a lot of work behind this event i reckon. After 2 months of taking a brake due to excessive grinding in either pvp or pve, i came back to see whats new.

Flame and Frost wasn’t interesting in any way in my opinion, just another away going event with some mediocre story events and more grinding with pretty much old characters and enemies. I pretty much just ignored the whole thing and went to explore more Tyria for my legendaries.

Actually i was mad in away, that while a-net could add something we could actually do more like focusing on the parts people are already wanting to be fixed, they add events that just come and go and maybe leave a rather unnoticable mark, if a mark at all.

Then this appeared and i was in awe. I mean my respect for A-net grew immensly. It gave me a breath of fresh air and i loved and still love every minute of it. Everything from skins to the cheesy old school text and stories, this is just pure awesome. And it’s taken away for no apparent reason other than ’’it’s an event’’.

You’d have a chance to grow this specific idea and it’s more content for people. More reasons to play even after April. Literally after this month, the game is pretty much the same old GW2 it was half a year ago aside from some balancing, bug fixing and rather small addition here and there like daily quests etc…

I mean really, what’s new in this game after this month and i mean NEW that’s been added to this game aside from fractals and daily questing fixes? Something that really changed the face of this game or has added a new, unique way of playing the game?

I know for a fact that my old guild hasn’t come back because there hasn’t been really any change in this game. Not enough to keep some people interested for a long time at least…

While some people might disagree with me on some parts, i do think that this event needs to be a permanent thing in this world. I love it and i’m not the only one. Don’t put something this awesome on a shelf to collect dust.

This is just something too awesome to be shelved. LEAVE THIS IN THE GAME!

If you hadn’t been using mesmer player’s titles as an exploit to find them more easily this wouldn’t have been an issue for you.

But it if were the other way around, targeting the real mesmer would be far too easy. This issue would be solved if they implement the option to turn of titles on nameplates globally.

Our 2-Team Tournaments have been growing in popularity since they were introduced, however very few players are queuing up for the 8-Team Tournament format anymore, due to that. This often means that players can queue up for hours, without an 8-Team Tournament ever kicking off. This is not a good experience, so we’ve decided to disable them. While we may bring back multi-round PvP tournaments in the future, for now we will be discontinuing the 8-Team, 3-Round Tournament format.

Ranger in Dungeons?

Direngrey.8376

Reason behind it is they would rather carry a mesmer,warrior,or a guardian. The people you are referring to are elitist and I would take there word with a grain of salt. I run with rangers and engineers (which are in the same talk) and it is only speed run groups and elitist that won’t take you.

We are far from being elitists, rangers do no damage and their pets aggro monsters when we are trying to get in position. Only thing rangers are good at is wvw. I ADMIT, we had a ranger in fractals who saved our behinds because his pet revived him and he revived us. However this only happened once, all other rangers were fail. If you’re going to run a dungeon you want it fast while gaining the game experience, and clean.

It seems most of us on the forums have been hitting bad RNG there lately.

This is confirmation bias. The only people who post about it on the forums are those with the bad RNG. Those with the good RNG don’t post, and so you get the false feeling that something is wrong when, in-fact, nothing is wrong.

Don’t take this the wrong way; I think Fractal chests need to be more rewarding (at least as much as world boss chests) and have posted repeatedly about that topic, but the RNG and loot for FotM hasn’t changed since it was added.
