Mistlock Abilities will be unbalanced

And your point being? I think it’s a given that any form of instability is going to have more impact on certain professions than others. The same is true for certain builds.

But the same can be said for almost any part of the game. If you have diversity, you always have someone who fares better in certain situations than someone else. The only solution to change that would be to have only one profession, which I am sure none of us would like. (At least not in a setup like GW2.)

Still that won’t prompt any profession to become useless. If that happens, than the developement team screwed up big time.

If you happen to stumble across any typos,
you may keep them to rear new and interesting variants in your basement.

Shards, globs, vials, rings and pristines

I have 120 pristine relics, do you really think that Anet will give us other uses for them? I would be sitting on a gold mine if that was the case.

That would depend how they implement the currency exchange. If they let you exchange your pristine relics for other ascended items (Amulets, earrings, ascended weapon components, etc.), which are of course account bound or soulbound, I do not see what the harm would be. In fact, it would make sense.

You should be able to buy ascended related gear with pristine relics from the BUY 4373.

Anet please! I can’t bring myself to vendor these rings for fear of them being useful later. A definitive answer would be great!

Yeah, don’t rejoice: the new runes are basically toughness, condition reduction… Not really the kind of runes you need in fractals.

I voted Evon. He felt and looked like a more interesting character. Kiel wasn’t interesting enough to get my full votes.

The fact that Kiel was in the living story long before Evon got him into a disadvantage.

For those of you who fully supported Evon during Cutthroat Politics, I thank you.
Never forget what could have been. Never forget the real council member.

Never forget Evon Gnashblade.

May he someday reclaim his rightful position from…‘cough’ Kiel ‘cough’

I’m happy if I see 1 of every class that has a good player playing it.

edit: tho I do find most PUG rangers are terrible as well as guardians, a few warrior/thief, then mesmer/ele/engi comes last.

the only class that I’ve only ever happy with as a PUGs 100% are necros. I think I just have terrible necro playing friends, but I’ll still play with them because they are my friends.

but that’s only my experience.

pugs are called pugs cause they usually don’t know what they are doing. not degrading the dog though.

It’s true that certain professions have an easier time simply dealing with soaking up damage with larger HP pools, but it’s arguable that this is clearly better than the damage avoidance or support mechanics of others. Regardless, adding enemies with endlessly increasing damage output and health isn’t really a very interesting way to add difficulty. That’s why we reduced the HP/Damage scaling in Fractals somewhat and started replacing it with the Mistlock Instabilities that you’ll find starting at level 31.

Warrior, Mesmer, Guardian only fractal groups

in Fractured

Posted by: Paciunek.2496

I don’t know why people still complain about Mesmer/Guardian/Warriors groups. It’s not about heavy armor, kitten . It is about efficiency. Mesmers bring reflects, time warp and mass invisibility when needed. Guardians bring reflects, buffs and healing. Warriors bring the best damage buffs with banners and they do great damage by themselves.
Necros bring nothing, rangers are bad (yea I know Brazil build and run one on my ranger, but this profession still sucks compared to others), and only a good thief is worth anything, but most of them camp shorbow being useless. Eles are awesome, but most people camp staff, because they can’t play melee. Don’t force people to play with something useless, because fractals are about your utility in the group.
But still I don’t think you will be kicked if playing something other than meta. Leaderboards won’t change anything for group setups, bad builds still will be played, and bad players still will be joining high level fractals. As long as poeple won’t care about being useful, nothing will change. You can force Anet to finally do something about it, I would be very glad to finally make use of my 8 characters in PVE, not 3.

As long as they know what they are doing I don’t care what they run.

I run a Guard so i’ll worry about the projectiles and stability.

Is anyone even surprised at this point? All the temporary content pushing bug fixes off the todo list.

And this is exactly why I think they should give it a rest and get to work on the bugs. Nobody will want to play if nothing is working.

I was there…. the Grenth temple event bugged out as well.

We had to move to Dwayna which finally worked. It was kinda sad.

Wow. I watched a bit farther into it, and three ArenaNet tags have to give up on the event and find something else to do after they’re unable to fix it.

Group of developers try to stream Temple of Lyssa, and it bugs 8 minutes in. After 5 minutes of trying to un-break it, they give up. They then try to do Temple of Grenth, and it bugs too.

Pretty embarrassing, but hopefully it gets them to fix these events after a year. All of the temple events still regularly bug.

At least 1 Guardian for the usefulness of his utility ( providing it’s someone that knows how to use the class ).

The rest can be all thieves for all I care, I’ve cleared Fractals with every class and there’s no best profession for them, only best AT certain parts.

Giving that I run with pugs 99% of the time, I only want polite players and….what else…oh no “one language” players, the absolute worst elitists kittens in the game.

^ clown car is not fun and I’d just remove it (keep Rabsovich and his initial adds). Also fix the reviving at the control panel.
Fix the archdiviner fight and have him drop some kitten loot in line with every other boss.
Fix the charr fractal not turning you into a charr. I’d love to see some more armor variations here.
Really hoping for a good coating of polish on all fractals. But I don’t think much is going to change.

It's Expansion Time

Posted by: Jeff.4680

I mean come onnnn. Do I really need to type paragraphs & paragraphs of why? The living world is only good as long as people are waiting for an expansion. Otherwise it just gets boring and old. Alone, it’s not sufficient and it doesn’t stand a chance against these new MMOs coming out.

Arena Net needs sometime to advertise. Something to make some real profit on. The gem store is not going to suffice in the near future. I guarantee it. If you’re active in the community you can tell that people are getting more and more bored and talking more and more about these other MMOs coming out.

This game needs some real new to it. Real content, real story, real endgame…I could go on and on. It needs a real reason to keep the player’s interest in the game, other than just to hold them off until these new MMOs come out. I played Guild Wars for 6 years until this game came out, then I switched over. I was always a huge fan of the lore, style, and philosophy, but now I’m contemplating switching to something new from the direction this game is heading in.

Get it together, Arena Net. This game needs an expansion.

While guardians are powerful they are not really that good anymore. Like 90% of the changes to guardian since beta have been nerfs.

Unfortunately the change doesn’t apply to items that have already been acquired. Ultimately that’s what I wanted but there was a pretty severe technical limitation on this, so we thought it would be better to make the newly items work this way rather than postpone the conversion any longer.

Also, at higher Fractal levels the weapon skins become more common, and also start dropping in a container that lets you pick the one you want.

Spoiler: there was always a rare chance to get them in the 10-20ish. The only change we made was to make them skins so you can apply them without spending a transmutation stone.
