I think they should make a mix of both: fast paced with scaling difficulty like fractals, but with a deeper storyline like dungeons. If the maps and mobs were also procedurally generated, it would be just awesome.

It looks like they want to tell a story now, though, regarding the Chaos Fractal events

Yet another story they will never finish till 2089

But a story nonetheless. Years of reading Berserk and Hunter x Hunter have hardened my patience into an impentrable fortress that impatience cannot pierce. I can wait till 2089

picture is pretty self-explanatory.

I realize clipping is a big issue and it happens with a lot.
Maybe this is an idea. Make ‘flesh’ invisible when it passes through other objects? then you don’t have to fix the actual item, the knees just become invisible.

Necromancer lore?

I might view magic a little differently than most GW2 players, but bear with me.

“Magic,” in Tyria, is simply manipulation of reality’s fabric through force-of-will. This manipulation is fueled by the energy present in the world (concentrated in ley lines), but not all magic is “arcane” as-such.

By that definition, “warriors” are no less magicians than elementalists. Their “spells” are the martial techniques they use in order to defeat enemies. Indeed, the very concept of life itself may be a form of magic. If life is magic and dragons consume magic, then life itself would be scoured from the face of Tyria were the dragons allowed to continue unabated. I think of it as “the magic of the ordinary.” It might be a stretch per official lore channels, but it makes sense to me.

Warriors do use magic though. As explained in gw1, their magic is relatively primal. More physically enhancing. They use magic they increase the effect of strength, toughen their skin and spur adrenaline. So they turn magic into biological function.
Through primal power they can wield heavy weapons with ease, and skin and armor can endure heavy blows.

Amaimon go to wvw and get the tribal walkers from the reward track they’re almost as good as invisible boots for light armor thats what i’m going to do when i finish my current track. I ended up paying near $300 for a pair of medium boots because i couldn’t stand it anymore (not having them) but i’m not doing it again for light boots anet can stick that right up their bum.

I looked them up, alas they paint your feet white…

Necromancer lore?

in Lore

Posted by: Amaimon.7823

Amaimon.7823

The problem is, there is also a variety of Necromancer Origins. In human lore, Grenth gave the gift of necromancy, something Dhuum hated because of ‘death undeniable’. But humans weren’t the first necromancer, though.
All in all, I wonder if there is a cohesive origin for necromancy.

Necromancy is a type of magic (or part of the spectrum of magic?). So a necromancer is just someone who can use necromancy. GW2 doesn’t exactly have a Hogwarts, so it seems magic can be inborn and self trained without too much hassle, and by that I mean we’re not dealing with a Warhammer or Dragon Age style magic system in which magic users are somehow inherently dangerous.

Magic is slightly more complex than that. And gw2 gave an odd spin to it. It used to be that people were bound to a school of magic based on the 4 bloodstones.
Preservation, destruction, punishment and.. forgot the fourth..

So a necromancer was forced into a school of magic. But he could borrow arts from the other classes. A necromancer could use fire magic. A ritualist could summon phantasms. The only downside was, it was punishing your core abilities to invest in secondary abilities.

Gw2 changed it slighty, by fully unlocking all the arts of one class, but locking access to the other classes

Is Ascended armor required for raiding?

in Players Helping Players

Amaimon.7823

The answer is a two way road

1: yes, pugs wont accept anything less than perfect gear, and having ascended is a sgnificant boost in longer fights.

2: no, skill is more important. Gear cant and wont compensate for bad playstyle.

Area below Dragons Stand Chest?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Amaimon.7823

Amaimon.7823

That is, quite literally, The Heart of Thorns. Its where the last two chapters Dark Harvest and Heart and Mind take place. By the time you arrive (you = PC), the pact and alliance of guilds is on your tail. You kill the mordrem faolain, and enter the heart of thorns.
This is where is gets interesting. When you enter the Heart, the war in the open world begins. This is a very interesting design, because of the fact that you’re attacking the mind of mordremoth and the pact+alliance attacking the heart, is whats making this war possible. Mordremoth cannot focus on both sites, so in the chaos its a war fought on two fronts. I really recommend you complete the story and simoultaneously do both last missions for the best experience.

ANET can't create good story final boss fight

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Amaimon.7823

Amaimon.7823

See and this is the problem. I thought the Shiro encounter was pretty much a joke, and that the other boss encounters were okay. But as pointed out the next to last mission in each of the games was harder than the last mission. Why?

Because the last mission was something you had to redo if you wanted to get to the vendors after it. Wanted to train a pet phoenix, had to beat the last mission of nightfall. Wanted to get a green serpent staff, had to finish the last mission of Nightfall.

They made the last missions shorter/easier for convenience. You still had to get past the missions before that that were harder to win.

It doesn’t indicate Anet can’t make a boss (since indeed they had good dungeon bosses). They may have other reason to make bosses easier or harder than you’re apparently not looking at.

I know, right, shiro was like a 20 second boss. Lich took me 2-3 tries. And then theres abaddon and Destroyer, I know I couldnt kill them at all on my first run without the help of friends

Sylvari are not Mordremoth's creation

Posted by: Amaimon.7823

Amaimon.7823

The Sylvari are stated to be of Mordremoth and what enforces that even more is the fact that the Pale Tree can protect Sylvari from corruption from the other dragons sans Mordremoth

I slightly disagree. The pale tree protected the sylvari from Mordremoth’s Call.
But she can’t protect them from the other elder dragons, but also doesn’t need to, because dragon minions are innately immune to each other. Zhaitan couldn’t ‘revive’ the sylvan because they weren’t his to claim.

My opinion is that the sylvari are very much Mordremoth’s creation. But they don’t look like the average mordrem because of what Ronan and Ventari did. If not for them, the current tree would’ve spawned in the heart of the maguuma and spawned mordrem instead of sylvan creatures

Radiant and Hellfire Armor Skins

Hands up anyone who has a full set?

Nobody?

QED

Put another way, if nobody ever has these, there’s no point in having them in-game. Of the few people that may get them, even fewer would wear them because they have their own skins that they like. Players wouldn’t even see them in the game let alone have them. It’s a waste of developer effort to develop a skin that nobody ever sees.

I got the first 3 hellfire AND the first 3 radiant pieces. I HATE the radiant skins. Why can’t I have 6 hellfire pieces and 0 radiant pieces

What is Preservation Magic?

in Lore

Posted by: Amaimon.7823

Amaimon.7823

I was always curious about healing magic. We, the PC can fix dismemberment, piercing, burns, poisons, rots, mental corruptions. But heroes and allies sit out a fight because their legs hurt.. are we somehow easier to heal? Is our healing divine? Then why dont PCs heal entire armies?

Rapidly healing entire armies is called being a Lich.

Doctors in our world can fix that list you described. For instance if my toe is cut off I can have it reattached if I am quick enough. The only difference is magic treatment is more speedy, and they are better at resuscitation than we are.

So with magic/medicine waiting to seek care makes the issue harder to resolve.

The longer something is dead/diseased/damage/decaying/decomposing the less they can help.

It becomes the domain of necromancers.

If I wait a year to reattach my rotting toe only a Dr. Frankenstein could fix it. However I would still be left with a dead toe that was reanimated, an undead toe.

Specifically with Taimi’s leg she has a degenerative disease that appears to be genetic. They are to stop it at her leg but they can’t regenerate the function of the leg itself.

I personally would love for Marjory to reanimate Taimi’s leg, but I don’t know if it’s possible without killing her.

Maybe I wasnt specific enough:
LS1 battle on the breachmaker.
The Pc gets burnt, poisoned, practically dismembered several times, healing skill cures all.
Next up, Braham says his leg hurts and cant continue to fight?
Does Braham have no healing skill, is he not as susceptible to healing or is the PC just too greedy to share their healing skill? If I played Ls1 on a druid or guardian. i shouldve been able to cure him, no? In a matter of 2-3 seconds even.

Just a comment. Black Lion chests aren’t affected by your magic find.

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Magic_Find
Magic Find is both an account bonus and a character attribute that increases the chance to receive higher-quality loot from slain foes. With a couple exceptions, it does not affect containers (including champion loot bags), chests, or any other source of loot. The exceptions are:
1) Containers received from structured PvP reward tracks.
2) Divine Lucky Envelopes during Lunar New Year
3) Heart of Thorns meta event participation containers.

It worked and i don’t take any risk – one out of my guild told me he used 25 keys without luck boosters and 25 with luck boosters and got better stuff out of the boosted ones.

50 chests huh. Well who can argue with a sample size like that.

Now now, if you put that much sarcasm in one post, the forum might actually break as fragile as it is already.

@Tiefsee, it’s true. MF doesn’t affect BL-chests AT ALL. What your friend has something called ‘Negative Applause’ which means that you put in a criteria, then the outcome changes, and you claim its because of the criteria while its just a chance/random thing.

First, i want to present my insanity, it’s called Insanity.
Second, i would like to go after the legendary backpack, but i would like to know if there’s a list of all things you need for this, like how many fractal pages are needed and how many balls of dark energy, especially this, cuz as how i see…looks pretty painful, especially the method to obtain them.
And if anyone knows, how much gold and time you would spend to craft this?

A few basics:

1) you only need enough dark energy for the first step. Salvaging the products yield enough for the next steps. (but don’t lose any along the way)

2) You’ll need 4 times 28 Journal Pages. You can get a max of 2 per day, so it will take 4*14 days at a minimum.

3) You will need to craft the Beta-capacitor along the way. and upgrade it for every step.

4) For the last step you will need a Gift of Wood and Metal, which is T3, T4, T5, and T6 ingots and planks, 250 in size.

5) Gimmick Tip: Every tier has a ‘complete this fractal by killing the boss with -80% healing’. There’s a trick to this. Get a party of 5 people and the debuff. THEN when you get to the boss, have it trigger. Then you have the functioning debuff. The other party members can return to character screen and log back in so lose the debuff.
Now only you suffer the -80% healing, but it will not interfere with the progress.
This is very helpfull for the T4 challenges. Completing Aetherpath and the dredge furnace with -80% healing is a hell.

An easier way might be to equip a rifle on one of your characters, and then use the Hero panel Wardrobe.

A lot less rifles to go through. Also, look at spearguns/harpoon guns. Sometimes, they look just like rifles.

You could also try a -repair of the client, just in case of corrupted file(s). Instructions found in the Knowledge Base accessed via the ‘Support’ link above/below and ‘Search – Repair’.

Good luck.

I don’t think I’ve ever felt so stupid in my entire life. My god.

This was the “missing rifle” in question: http://imgur.com/a/VN43D

It was a harpoon gun the entire time. I’m seriously facepalming right now. As soon as I read “harpoon gun” I just knew deep down..

In my defense though, IT LOOKED JUST LIKE A RIFLE MAN. LOL. I didn’t even think to read. Just saw that it looked cool. Without using my brain I just unlocked the skin, went to rifles and didn’t see a match and just freaked out ever since. Never bothered to see if it was a harpoon gun.

But uh.. ahem. Yeah, that was a wild ride. My deepest apologies for the confusion.

Nothing to else to see here folks. We can all go home now >.<

HAHA* If I were you, I’d remember this story, it makes for a good laugh. And don’t hurt yourself too much, it happened to the best of us.
I remember I was crafting the Ad Infnitum, went all the way of making that weird sub-backpack. So when I was done I salvaged it for the ectos.
Then came tier 2. And I had to craft it all over again because that item was used in upgraded forms every tier. I don’t think I’ve stopped facepalming myself for the rest of the day.

Suggestion: How to make Spears work

Amaimon.7823

I wonder why some people are so against adding new stuff?

Probably because “2 handed stick” weapon type already exists

Adding a new weapon with 2-5 new skills is no different from adding an existing weapon with 2-5 new skills.

Except that for the new weapon you will have to change loot tables and add new recipes and make separate skins for them. Oh and new weapon type will be locked behind only couple of specs so it will be almost useless for a lot of people.

As I said in the MAIN TOPIC!!: You can use the spear skins so that argument of yours is out of the window. The new weapon type will be locked behind some specs.. well guess what bud, some weapons already are locked behind certain specs. Ever seen a necromancer with a rifle? I havent.

The only argument you’re making WORTH CONSIDERING is the loot table and honestly, thats not even that big a deal. Recipes? remember during LS1, and LS2, and HOT, any idea how many recipes they pumped out in that time? If you ask me, thats not that big a deal either.

It will be almost useless for a lot of people?
How many people don’t utilize all 5 character slots, if not more? If 2-3 have it natively, and 2-3 more come with elite specs, please tell me HOW it will be useless for a lot of people, when the majority of the people will have at least 1 of the classes that can use it?

I still can’t see how reinventing the wheel is better than using already existing stuff.

Because its not reinventing the weel. Its a new weapon type, thus a new playstyle. A new weapon increase the amounts of windows of oppertunity.

They don’t need to create another 2 handed stick for that. They can use the existing supported one and slap some skins on it.

Sigh.. Ingive up. Your brain is stuck in a concrete steelcoated box.
Staff =|=|=|=|=|=|=|= Espatoons. Because apparantly not a single ‘doesnt equal’ get into your brain.

Does not matter. They can put rifle skills on a greatswords if they want to. Pretty sure they can give warrior a staff, add some “Bash” and “Poke” skills and make a couple thematic skins to go with it and everyone will be happy. Definitely happier than if anet wastes months and months on a new weapon type that is used by 2-3 elite specs at best.

NO! just no. Look up some quarterstaff combat, or pokearm combat. You do NOT want to wield staffs for that! just look at the fantasy-themed staffs and imagine using that in combat.. Just.. NO.. please.. no.. please imagine what that would look like and get it through your skull that there is no realm of possibility that a staff and a polearm or spear can overlap in usage. its enough of a sin what they did to the daredevil. Maybe if they DO add this new weapon type they can change it on the thieves as well to be changed to the new weapon type.
