Guild Wars 2

Hopefully it’s the start of a rotating trend where we get content for each race.

She’s going to say we are all being sacrificed on the giant bloodstone under the pavillion in preparation for the coming of our Mursaat overlords.

She is really a charr… and thanks to the efforts of that mesmer sidekick she has, she has been able to conceal it.

Oh grandma, what big fangs you have!

I was hoping for the door to the Elonia desert to being opened, but a bunch of people have quoted Colin, that no new zones will be added this year.

So, most likely aetherblade related.

No, i need money and now i can finally make some. The reward is amazing, thank you Anet.

Surely you wont do all paths in one day? All we need is proper reward scaling for rest of the dungeons than just ac or arah.

I like the new changes, gives me a reason to try out other dungeons and explore. I use http://gw2lfg.com/ to find groups and now i am working on my Dungeon Master Title. If you run multiple paths each day it’s much more fun than doing the same one over and over.

Bambu.4270:

Because seeing big hits is more popular than multiple small hits.

And when you have multiple people in the same group all trying to go for the multiple small hits, all of the multiple small hits get spread out and you become even more useless

There is a fixed limit on the number of bleeds, vulnerability etc on a mob and it is 25. If you join a group as a condition based character and see the bleed counter already running high then most of your bleeding damage will hit those caps and be wasted. Burning and poison stack duration so if those are already applied most of the time then adding more does nothing. If you go into a group with direct damage then you know your damage will be applied whatever the rest of your group is doing.

They can’t read minds. Anise is the one who disguised it as Rytlock.

Thomassassinate.9370:

If you’re a thief the achievment is a cake walk. No title needed.

So what about the 7 other professions that succeed in doing it? Do they not deserve it?

Get over your pitiful vendetta.

Kinda feels little hollow to do one of the hardest things in the game and not get some bragging rights from it. Would be nice to get a title for it. Anyone else who got it feel like it?

All those in favour of having the difficulty reduced on this boss: (post a comment to show your support and your ideas on how to fix the issues)

From the mountain of bugs:
Obstructed cosmic rifts ( a bug which has been there since launch AC burrows I feel they should just be removed (the rift not the burrows))
Camera in circular dome ( smart idea arenanet the camera sucks as it is your just making it worst)
The targeting system ( it sucked kitten launch and it still sucks hard GW1 had a better system)
Previous bosses not despawning ((doesnt happen all the time) wasting tickets and money on repair)

Attacks
The AOE (overpowered I think the pattern should remain the same as phase 1 or either reduce the damage)

• The clones* ( same issue reduce damage)

Clearly designed for hardcore gamers. I wouldn’t mind the one-shot downs so much if it was a group event like in a dungeon but not in a 1vs1 fight, it’s just like quick scoping on CoD, just leaves a bad taste in your mouth

Arenanet need to remember not everyone is a hardcore gamer what happens to the casual games that arenanet are excluding with theses events. Not everyone wants to play a berserk practically all the guides online used a berserker build

I know a lot of people are complaining about this on the forums, and I think with good cause there are many issues that need resolving.

It’s really nice to see so many new events and achievements like the new arena. It’s also great to always get new Weaponskins available and i don’t want to actually nag, but REALLY?

Check the two available Daggerskins and then compare them to all the other skins.. Are you serious? Daggers as much of a boring kitten as the ones we already have at the moment. No effects and on top of that they don’t even look decent at all. Why can’t you just make a smaller version of this
or maybe a dagger looking somewhat close to Entropy or Genesis ..

Simply tell me Why do Warrior/Guardians get TWO great looking Hammers and TWO great looking 2h Swords, each with nice effects AND skins, but the new Daggers look as bad as f . . . ?Actually they got 2 Legendary skins available, else like all others! And even the sword-users got their rapier..
Would it be so hard to just give us a full set of all weapons with skins like ‘Lord Taeres’s Shadow’ or a full set of ‘Entropy’ skins?

Each patch i’m waiting in anticipation and get disappointed so hard with those skins.

I just hope there will be some earnest reconsideration about skin-equality between the weapons in the near future…

Well you don’t get blood, bones, or any other mats when you salvage other items so my guess would be they are gone.

Johnson.3874:

You guys really are a bunch of amateurs…
This, plus the numerous bugs with the Gauntlet. Geez, I don’t even know what to expect next. Nothing ? Is that good enough ?

Because insulting the devs will help the process, and you know the code and their working conditions well enough to be affirmative they could have done better. Wait, no, you are just being rude for the sake of it!

They have to deal with an incredibly complex system, here, and update it every two weeks. Of course there are bugs. Never ever expect perfection from a computer system. Even space rockets blow up because of bugs, and I don’t think the NASA (or any other space agency) is “a bunch of amateurs”.

Runes of Perplexity now correctly apply confusion to the enemy target instead of the player.

I couldn’t help but lol at this.

I have a big problem with instant-kill mechanics. Never mind that they’re kind of cheap, I mostly have a problem with how each class is supposed to defend against it. This issue pops up again with Liadri. Now I’m not saying this cannot be done on a necromancer, since every class has 2 dodges. But it’s not exactly a level playing field is it?

Rangers are out of luck, since the AOE spam instantly kills their pet (who can’t dodge obviously). Pets couldn’t dodge back in Molten Facility… and nothing has changed since then. So why still design content like this?

And necromancers don’t have any vigor regeneration, evades, blocks or invulnerability. Surely when you implement a mechanic that makes defense completely redundant, all classes should have equal access to abilities to deal with it?

But I think worst of all, it reinforces this idea that everyone should be walking around in zerker gear, since regardless of defensive stats, the boss is going to one-hit kill you anyway. Is all of this difficult content going to remain focused on nothing but DPS?

I don’t have an issue with a difficult boss. But I DO think it should be equally difficult for all classes. If a boss has a core mechanic, everyone should have equal means to deal with it. Otherwise we might as well all roll a guardian for all high end content.

I don’t like instant kills. I think they are lazy, and not much fun. And it makes the player too reliant on a flawless connection, since even the slightest frame drop or lag can cause an instant wipe. For an online game, I think the content should be designed around the fact that it is online. Having a hundred players zerging into massive hordes of monsters underneath you, while standing in a very large detailed environment, does not improve FPS or connection speed. This would be all fine, if it weren’t for the fact that one second delay means game over.

I don’t think one-hit kills are a clever mechanic. I don’t even think they are a fun mechanic. I do like a challenge, but I think it should be a fair challenge. Fair to all classes.

How are people making good money off this? The stupid Champion bags are all giving me only ~6 silver, a few middle-tier crafting materials and a green piece of armor. Every time.

I can see 40 Cobalt in the trading post already…Anyone knows where to loot it? D=

Update 8/6/2013: All CoF Warriors have “Dodge” functionality added to their characters, enabling them to not fail in CoE runs. Functionality in Caudecus Manor still disabled, do not attempt.

RIP in Peace.

I wonder if GW2LFG is still going to be filled with people that run it 10+ times a day, with the obnoxious “4war1mes zerk $$$” ads.

So CoF farmers you’re welcomed in different dungeons! I was farmer also ;-)

Good riddance.

Why do precursor drops always reward the terrible players <__<

Why don´t you want to pug a dungeon?
