I don’t do dungeons much because I hate feeling bad if I’m not playing on other people’s level. I decided to do this path because it’s new for everyone. Did it pretty much as soon as it came out. Took us three hours in total, and I was fine with that (it’s new and we’re learning), but as soon as it was over two of the people were extremely belligerent about how long it took and calling names. There are some pretty disgusting people out there, but I guess that’s what happens when you pug…
Whenever I’m not playing with my guild I specify that I’m forming a party where anyone is welcome and especially new/inexperienced players (or new to that content anyway) and this is one of the reasons.
I strongly suspect it scares off the elitists, the ones who weren’t already put off by me playing a ranger anyway, and I’d much rather play with people who are learning the content than people who want to skip everything and kick anyone who dies or doesn’t meet their personal expectations because in my experience it’s a much more enjoyable experience.
(Besides I doubt I’d meet those elitists standards either and I have absolutely no intention of ever doing so.)
“Life’s a journey, not a destination.”
just like they suck for Tequatl,
Rangers thrive on the turret/turret defense. You shouldn’t be smacking the dragon’s face. Not everybody is going to be a member of the DPS zerg.
Oh? So we’re regulated to turret kitten like necros or ‘finger duty’ because we’re not a real dps class huh? That is bad design.
How? Not everybody can be the Warrior class. Get over it.
We hear you.
fans hate Joffrey. They hate her the way Star Wars
fans hate Jar Jar Binks.”-not a direct quote, but still true.
I play ranger, and only ranger. I had no problems with my pet for this entire dungeon outside of the Clockheart. And I dedicated myself to pulling the holograms for that, so I wasn’t going to use my pet for it anyway (maybe a moa or a bear would have been useful in that situation for the buffs?).
Really, just learn to use F3 and F4 properly.
Funny all I hear outside are rangers complaining about their pets dying. Electric floors kill them in the areas that had them. The bosses kill them very fast for any boss that focuses on the pet for more then a few moments. f3 and 4 aren’t going to do crap in those situations or when your pet paths through a thrown gear and dies.
Pet. A.I. Is. Stupid. Add in a small bit of lag and good luck getting those retreat/swap commands off in time.
They should just make it so the pet is invuln/phased for 2 seconds every time the ranger dodges.
Then put a trait/minor trait in beastmastery to make the pet attacks feed endurance to the ranger far up.
The Random Story is poison.
This.
+1 (and +1 for ‘nag text’ – good description)
I fully agree.
Let me turn off the notification of where I am in my story too – I haven’t touched it for 6 months; I NEVER plan on touching it again. Let us turn off the stuff we have no interest in.
Tell you what, replace them with ads. Even THAT would be more interesting than seeing the current nag text.
Let me turn off the nag text at the top right! It’s very obtrusive, obscuring and a hell of an immersion breaker.
I have no interest in this dungeon so now I have to put up with a dark grey box with white text for 2 weeks? I was levelling my warrior in the Wayfarer Foothills earlier and all I keep seeing out the corner of my eye is this annoying box going “LOOK AT ME, LOOK AT ME!”
Make a checkbox in options like you did with right click targeting please.
Hey guys, apologies for this, it looks like this is related to a pretty rare combination of factors. We’re working on a fix for this and I will update you guys when it is live.
Trying to do this content as a necromancer with a tagalong ranger is pure hell. When are we getting some semblance of PvE balance in this game? I’m tired of everything being designed around the damage capabilities of cutting edge warriors. No pun intended.
We did the dungeon, killed the final boss and we got stuck in the boss room and cant progress. please test your content before you release it I’m tired of these bugs and if possible refund all of us who got this bug! The dungeon is a blast but this bug just got the better of me and the whole party.
EDIT: Just ignore this thread I nerdrage too hard.
more deadly than any that walks this earth. Put aside the Ranger.

Seriously, this “update race” is compromising the quality of the updates, most of then comes bugged as hell and keep us wasting our time like the one from Master of Baubles – SAB, they are also compromising the quality of the localization (i can told you that the Quality of the localization has been very bad in the spanish client in the last updates, at the start was uber with the Halloween update)… also we can see a lack of content with the updates, the Fight of Tequalt was a good start for revamping the world boss but the “Dragons week” was a joke.
I think this game could benefit more from a Monthly update cycle with more time for the developers to continue making his awesome job and have enough time for testing all the new content and give time for the localization teams, seriously, they need to take a look at the “Spanish Localization problems”, we are a bit abandoned there…
Well, and sorry for my english, its no my main language and discuss about this, and what you think about the Bi-weekly or monthly updates in this game.
Regards.
oh yes.
I can nots contain ma joy. (25% sarcasm based on the Murray scale. Tosh scale would be WAY too much)

They can’t charge you for fixes. They can charge you for gems to buy hairstyle.
lol, clipping issues/etc. isn’t why MOST people aren’t playing a Charr engineer.
So you managed to ask everyone who plays the game and is not playing a charr character how they feel on the subject?
Impressive.
Percentage of players who play charr and engineers combined. My guess is less than 25%.
Percentage of players who use hair. 100%
I’m not thinking that Anet’s priorities are wrong, in spite of the fact I would welcome fixes to charr and engineers also.
Um.
That’s a bullkitten reasoning. At the moment, engineers have no real endgame goals, given this game is supposed to be about looking pretty. Charr don’t function properly eith slot of armor, so that’s lame beyond measure too.
You want to talk priorities; these two things should not even be on the list of things that need to be fixed to begins with. These are things that should’ve been fixed during the first update to legendaries. It’s little things like this that make ArenaNet look incredibly sloppy.
There is no dungeon team.

I’ll go ahead and admit that I wasn’t in any hurry to try do it with 3 rangers. The pets don’t dodge and if you want to chain reflects, it means you aren’t doing (much) damage.
I don’t think that means it wasn’t easy, mostly just that Pet mechanics need to be looked at and that Rangers were a detriment in that dungeon path.
Stop the complaints already. You guys havent even tried the dungeon and are already going bananas over the Foward Up path being removed. Some dungeons can only be fixed by DELETING them!
Because TAFU is as bad as CoF P1, right?
This game really does suffer from the lack of trinity. :\ If the only thing worth playing is Zerker, ‘cause Zerker is just THAT good compared to everything else…well, then, there’s just no use for everything else in the game.
I prefer keeping the challenge alive, and not run the zerker build. Hell, my ele is a monk.
This game really just suffers from the lack of trinity, so everything is just….blah, because there’s no team work NEEDED to do anything. Just each person being somewhat competent to do EVERYTHING. Maybe not as fast as the ‘elitists’, but everything is still possible without any insight into team composition at all.
But then again, the trinity is the same thing that kills MMO’s. Play a class that isn’t tank/DPS/healer, and no one wants you in any of the game content.
The sad part of GW2 is that all you need is 5 Zerker DPS characters, and you are golden! Game done, over, fin. Lame sauce.
Sounds like the pot calling the kettle black. Or in the this case, “lame.”
Temples is best way, always 30 ore and its super easy. Dragons are waist of time.
Run tagless, target the commander.
the next time i am in orr, i will remember to shout “i am not a bot” every few minutes.
Please, please devs, read and post in the dungeon subforum once in a while.
Yes please. I miss the old times when Robert Hrouda used to come and talk to us.

Forward Up was one of the least played dungeon paths in the game
It’s been least played, because it has been broken for half the year, which the devs kept ignoring. I understand that instead of making few small tweaks that would fix the problem, it was just easier to handwave it away, but that is hardly what i could call a professional behaviour.
Absolutely agree. It was broken which meant pugs stayed away. Now I am afraid HotW p2 and p3, AC p2, SE p2 and CoF p3 might be goners at some point too because pugs don’t play them either. I’d rather they fix the existing paths instead of removing them from the game for good.
