I plan on saving mine for ascended gear, particularly the MF/GF infusions

Speaking of which, I’ve been wondering which infusions everyone plans on going with. I’m thinking the 20% gold find would be the most valuable for a set I plan on wearing for dungeon runs, although I could be argued into the magic find infusion as well. It’s kind of selfish, but sacrificing +5 or whatever to a single stat in exchange for +20% MF/GF seems like a no brainer.

I am the same way, let me play how I want. If I wanna use mf/gf, let me do it. I will still hold my own in a dungeon, otherwise I woudn’t be going in. I am sure there will be folks saying “lf1m CoF, no MF/GF infusions” going about lol…

I wish there could be an alternative to get a precursor

I remember when I bought Abyss dye for like 80s, and thought that was a lot. Almost didn’t buy it.

But yeah, inflation city. It’s these Legendary sellers, if they made them soulbound on acquire it’d be a different story.

Lol, “since the game came out”, “massive amount of laurels”, since the most any of us could have AS OF NOW would be 22, including the monthly.

OP, you do realize that laurels were just implemented in-game at the beginning of this month right?

If a fix has been implemented, this player hasn’t seen it. Grinding events in orr, each champ and vet I down nets me the same loot as the rest of the mobs, there has been no change. Maybe less yellows, but that’s about it.

Same thing happened for my any my guild the other day, we were going to do a massive karma blowout with the jugs and such we’d saved, and build up the bonus’s. SO, put out the 5% karma banner no problem, but the 15% banner was nowhere to be seen, and it didn’t even illicit a stack, or any kind of notice that it was working…but I did the math and it was indeed working as planned, but there was ZERO visibility as to it doing what it was supposed to be doing…unsettling to say the least.

Why are threads on botting being closed?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aoshi.4785

Aoshi.4785

And most threads about botting are abotut the same thing, blinking nude node miners, characters farming moa’s, goups of 3 in the same area moving about at the same time in the same direction…I am sure they get tired of reading the same thing over and over again.

But it’d be cool if these bots just poofed-be-gone.

Ya? Then they should probably do something about it rather than attack the players who aren’t doing the cheating.

I’m not saying I don’t agree with you, the sticky is mad old, from when the game started, and the issue is now worse than ever. I hate these lame bots as much as anyone else does, and it’s a slow burn seeing them ingame, while we have documented and reported for months now, with no visible relief in sight.

Is this a fair fix for precursors?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aoshi.4785

Aoshi.4785

Do not agree. Mystic forge is gambling.

However dragon chest tokens would be more up my alley. A stack should cut it. But even then people will complain because they want a free precursor. No amount of making it easier will be enough.

And that is exactly it. No matter how many changes, if and when, come down the pipe, until they are given free for anyone that wants one, there will ALWAYS be folks clamoring to make it easier/cheaper. It’s the way of the world lol…

Plinx is bugged, right at the start of his chain, he is laying next to the wall, on the ground, and will do nothing. The event icon to protect him has triggered, but nothing is happening.

Hope a fix is coming soon, we already wait an hour for him to come back, now its been a few days.

10x recipe…for me, 6 of my 10 attempts were success. Some folks say use the 1x recipe. I only had 172 shards on me at the time, and had a few left over after I got my 77.

This is just my experience, of course.

As salty as it sounds, this is entirely true.

I can say, though, that I am glad it isn’t 100/5 rm backed like Diablo is, that there is a TRUE mess.

The dug a deep hole, and I am pretty sure they don’t know how to get out of it.

I got very luck with my precursor, 5 exotic sets into Big Z, fifth one bore Dusk.

Also, if you are going to play Big Z for the precursor game, please ONLY go for the greatswords, if it works, you can sell it, and have a few hundred gold left over after you buy the one you need. I see folks tossing in axes, bows, staffs, and just facepalm. It’s a waste, pure and simple.

Considering how Warrior is UP in PvP I wouldn’t mind some PvP love in return for some PvE hate.

That’s weird, I play during the wee hours of the night, maybe a handful of people on, and I always have nice conversations with whoever is on…always get my questions answered, or answer anyone else’s if I know the answer. But it’s also like that if I log on at primetime. Maybe it’s your server? I am on Northern Shiverpeaks…

How should I get Badges of Honor

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aoshi.4785

Aoshi.4785

Sadly enough, the go-to and proven method is the jumping puzzles in wvw, with the campers and all. That’s how I got the bulk of my 500. My playtimes are such that there aren’t a ton of folks on, so it’s rare to get in with a zerg. On the days that I didn’t, it was jumping puzzles for me and my alts. The good thing is that even at lvl 2 you can run to the puzzles once you know where they are.

Good luck.

You must be just missing us. We roll out at 8 on the dot from Meddler’s waypoint to Grenth. Ask on map chat if you can’t find us.

Will do, can’t wait. I think it might be the time zone thing, I am in AZ (mountain or gmt-7) and I think that is like 2 hours before you all, if I am correct.

I would really, REALLY, like to see more items in the gem store. I love having options and such, but it’s been the same stuff for a while now, and the TWO new items, while awesome and such, aren’t really cutting it.

Fix town gear to where they can be worn everywhere, make them transmutable so we can kitten stats to them.

Add more armor skins. Lots more.

Add more weapon skins. Lots more.

Add more appearance items. Lots more.

You have folks waiting to use your game shop, so give them something to spend money on.

I know, there is plenty of other opportunity right now in game for devs to tackle, mechanics, broken quests, bugs and what not, and I get that. This is a suggestion thread, so I am just putting out a suggestion.

Thanks A-net ^__^

5 Points from equipping a Legendary

What about all of the other activities?

  • World Completion – Local Hero, Skillful, Been There, Done That, Dungeons Discovered, [Area] Explorer, Wall Breach Blitz
  • Karma From Events (Emergency Response Hero)
  • Materials – Salvage Master, Agent of Entrophy, Hunter Gatherer, 2 Crafting Disiplines
  • Dungeons – Paths Complete

As well as all the other activities on the journey to getting a Legendary.

i think you mean
*being an auction house exploiter
*buying gold for real money

I am about 62 obi shards away from my twilight, and did none of those things that you mentioned. Your statement is complete and utter ignorance. All this bigotry towards legendaries is BS. Get over it already, move on.

Did Grenth the other night and was expecting to get blown to bits from what everyone was chatting about on the boards here, but we didn’t wipe at all, and it was actually a lot more fun than before. I dig it

There was another small patch that addressed several parts of it.

That was probably it then. When I saw the AOE’s cover the floor, I was like “ok here we go” and got launched once, but I figured it out, and it wasn’t so bad.

That and the zerg we were in was the stuff of legends, lol.

Fractal Chest Loot Stealth Nerf

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aoshi.4785

Aoshi.4785

Just pugged a level 10 speed run and loot was a lot better than the 28 I just did, from chest I got Charged core (1g -27s) + Onyx Core (72s) + 3 rares and 1 rare from mystic forge (greens in), a little bit of luck with salvaging I got 7 globs of ectoplasm worth 2g – 35s. Other mats probably worth about 50s.

So that lower run which took about 1 hour earned me equivalent to 4g+, and chest loot was better too, others had exotics in the group as well.

Try running a lower level pug see what you get??

I’ve noticed that as well…maybe an enticement to get more folks into doing runs?

February monthly

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Aoshi.4785

Aoshi.4785

I can’t believe that people are complaining about salvages…

Every other monthly has something you do along the way while playing, last month it was like fractals (done just through playing) wvw kills (done just through playing) something else and events (done just through playing). Now if I want to get this done I have to buy 500 whites and spend 30 minutes salvaging them. So much fun!

Luckily I don’t really care about anything in the laurel vendor enough to do anything about it.

You don’t have to buy anything, break down the drops you get from playing events and trash loot. I killed mine (salvage) yesterday, didn’t buy anything to salvage whatsoever.

Very worried about the fetch quests.

It’s a catch 22 for me…on one hand, I dig the changes. A little variety in my daily, not the same thing all the time, I find it refreshing. And I seem to be killing my daily alot quicker than I had before the changes.

On the other hand, I am disheartened because with every update, they stray further from their original creed, about not being grindy, about being the anti-standard, doing away with mindless repetition. It all smacks of fetch quests for sure.
