1 ) pretty much yea the difference is play style

2 ) Yes the Mesmer is probably best example . its more of a Mehsmer pre 40 but once your past that your golden

3 ) No but i wouldn’t suggest just logging out anywhere you may log back into getting beat on by a lot of mobs . Remember GW2 has DEs so you never know when one might spawn on top of you

So, I got hacked.

It was an attempt to compromise your account via your email account. It was not a “hack”.

“Hacking” hasn’t occurred since Mathew Broderick’s character set the old analog phone in to the cradle and started dialing random phone numbers in search of a computer that would answer.

People toss the word “hacking” around too frequently these days without understanding its meaning/origin.

Accessing a game account or even an email account for that matter is the equivalent of Identity Theft or Social Engineering.

“Hacking” is blatantly accessing a single computer system or network directly in order to access the data or use the applications/services. So unless you are running WOPR to play GW2 or read your Gmail.. you weren’t hacked.

This lesson in Tech Support 101 was brought to you by the letters A, X and the Number 5.

Terms evolve .When people talk about gay rights these days they arn’t talking about happy rights are they? You did know that gay means happy and wasn’t used to mean homosexual until recently right?

How much, if any, tangential learning in GW2?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Adine.2184

“Tangential learning is the process by which people will self-educate if a topic is exposed to them in a context that they already enjoy. For example, after playing a music-based video game, some people may be motivated to learn how to play a real instrument, or after watching a TV show that references Faust and Lovecraft, some people may be inspired to read the original work. Self-education can be improved with systematization. According to experts in natural learning, self-oriented learning training has proven to be an effective tool for assisting independent learners with the natural phases of learning.”

I’m curious if any players have found things in GW2 that made them stop and think: “Is this based of a real thing?”

Is there a time (other than other player discussion) that the game itself taught you something you would have possibly not learned had you not played it? And at what point, if any, have you every looked up something to see what it was referenced. And if you did look it up did you learn and retain any knowledge from it. I’m only asking because I’m genuinely curious on how much the devs put into the game that players pick up on that references real world situations places or things. And Arenanet people are welcome as always to point out anything specific they did on purpose or think we might find interesting. I love learning little tidbits in game, I understand it isn’t an educational game. However I feel like if I can acquire zero real life knowledge from a game, I find it less appealing. Simply learning game mechanics or story just doesn’t feel as rewarding to me. Looking up “Moa” or “Norn” online after encountering them, lead to interesting discoveries. So I’m curious if anyone else has done this.

Just the oposite actually i was screaming at the lionguard YOU NEED BIGGER THAN 24 POUNDERS FOR A FORT

This is as stupid as telling a guardian to stop using their second skill.

No its more akin to asking the devs to remove a guardians virtues cause essentially what the OP is asking for is to remove initiative. A more logical request by the OP would be to increase the cost of HS so it couldn’t be spammed as much .

How much precision for 30% crit chance

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Its all dependent on your build . If your rolling a tank crit chance isn’t really a factor but if you want to take someone down fast then your gonna want a fair amount .

Ascended Gear Needs to be standardized

Can’t you do Dailies from within WvW? I mean, for the most part, at least 3 or 4 of the daily objectives are doable in WvW.

its completely dependent on the dailies .There’s only 1 guaranteed WvW daily all others you kinda have to hope are doable in it if you are primarily are a WvWer . With that said I don’t exactly see ascended gear as hard to get if i really wanted to get it .

Guild Bounties Now Punish Smaller Guilds

Adine.2184

I wouldent call Gandaran huge but the 300 barrels is a sizable amount . Sottz is the hardest to find even for a larger guild however so probably not the best example to use . You mentioned Sparkfly where Crusader Michelle is so we’ll use them . you strategically place those 8 across the zone and search counter to the route you will find them sooner rather than later . Asking if people have seen a bounty is never a bad idea either . You take the resources you have and use them wisely , end of story.

You what that tells me?That tells me most if not all of those 8 got their Dungeon Master title using broken or exploity mechanics and now that they face a challenge cant figure it out . Quite frankly though i would think bounties would be easier to find cause once you know your targets you can swarm a zone in all areas of their route which is posted on line.

I realize your joking about this but the Skritt wouldn’t be playable simply do to how their IQ increases or decreases depending on how many of them are in the immediate area .

I’d guess that 80% of players dislike the Charr .

I dont know about 80% but i can tell you that a lot of people who played GW 1 were taught for 7+ years that the Charr are evil and should have been wiped off the face of Tyria 250 years ago . Do to this very correct view i would fathom to guess that a lot of people refuse to play Charr

6? 1D6
7? 1D8 and on an 8 reroll

I can’t tell is this is supposed to be an April Fools joke or not… But in any case ArenaNet can’t do any thing about it since they don’t run that website. It’s like asking coke-a-cola to make pepsi stop selling diet pepsi.

Its a form of Griefing which IS covered under the TOS . The problem is that its being done through a 3rd party site so its a trickier situation . A very large portion of the guild i am in actually had the very same thing happen to us a while back but it’s been remedied now .
