People normally complain about how things are hard at the start of it, when the amount of knowledge of the situation is minimal. They will continue complaining until the difficulty is either reduced, reward increased or they will not do it. This kind of happened with teq and 3 jungle wurm. During the first week people were saying it’s too hard, is impossible, and so on. For teq they found a tactic. 3 wurm? they nerfed the second part. And now they call this content easy/semi easy.
With Boss Blitz they introduced 6 bosses with different mechanics. People complain that they are too tanky / they deal too much dmg / it is poorly designed. Less than a week later and people stopped saying that because they have the knowledge to fight the bosses. Kuraii, people have to watch out their surrounding just as the debs said before the game released, they want you to watch the surroundings and not your skill bar/health bar. Wiggins, people started to range him from a safe spot which is horrible idea. This fights remind me of alpha because of the timing of the aoe dodge. Most of the people there are not skilled enough to see it or they are just too lazy to go and try. This fight is really well done having wiggins have 2 skills at melee range and the aoe blind around him to counteract the meleers. Pyro, a destroyer that introduced reflects to the PuGs. NOT EVEN LA THIS DID. A BOSS INTRODUCED REFLECTS, NOW I SEE A LOT OF MESMERS AND GUARDS USING THEM…more than before ofc. This fight was the hardest one until people realized about this. The only bad part is the fire wave that comes to you instantly in 5 if you are meleeing him. Shurakk… the hardest boss for staff guardians (still funny to see one). it was hard at the start because people didn’t deal damage, they were just throwing the seeds and then start the damage. This boss made necros useful and their single target, and thief more op. The only bad part is that you can’t evade the seeds at melee range(no evade procs, you still get hit even during the evade). Boom Boom, hardest boss without communication because of turret. Good design except for the random aoe melee range that is instant, not blockable and can’t invul through it. And Sparcus the melee and range destroyer. Good design for challenge, bad design on the fire wall that some times kills you even before the particle appears.
Everything IS hard at the start. NOTHING is easy on the first time(Except if you are RNGesus). People will complain about the design AFTER they see other people helping them complete it if they can’t solo it. Liadri, people complain that is bad design. Those are the type of people you might fine saying this are bad design because they can’t themselves. The real only hard design in this game are the chickens from ebonhawke. Everything else can be killed with experience.
Ani isn’t here, the fun decreases a little, but… POPCORN COOKING
Dom almost started a war against lilith!
Now, that’s a war that we will enjoy watching.
If colesy joins we can doubt his sexuality from time to time.
In my opinion Necros need three things.
1 cleave weapons and attacks.
2 offensive utilities or finishers.
3 traits that give them % damage.
Intercom: Attention!
Intercom: Security measures offline.
Agent Spire: Did they pay her by the word?
Intercom: Attention!
Intercom: The cafeteria is now closed.
That’s the best one.
Get your popcorn guys. if nothing happens, well… meh.
Ani, you shouldn’t bring living story stuff into dungeon thread.
time to log in for fractals…
So, I reason to relog… well, here it is my warrior!
Suffering the fps drop for a picture, not a bad trade.
/ponder too stronk!

Conquerors Mantle
Arah chest
zojja’s warfists
arah leggings
Inquests boots
At CoE… I know, splashing lights looks good
If I win… that outfit will be what I demand.
I think it is random. Both cases the guy who joined didn’t read the LFG information but saw the path.
So… to make you happy, and I know you like my charr, I will be the first charr!. OMG the lag to put max graphics.
Gear:
Top hat from Gemstore

If you want to see the hair you most reply to this…you might like it or not.
Are they calling you lilitist already?
Sorry Leo… I was doing other stuffs today… left you pugging 4 fractals by yourself… it’s my fault
People that don’t read.
People that don’t want to learn.
Guardian staff 1 against single target boss.
Random fear out of the stack.
Didn’t read LFG.
Insults me via whisper after kicking them from party for not reading lfg.
The moment where the PUG says that they know more about everything than you do and doesn’t know the tells of a mob / a skill in their bar / or what’s a thief.
How to tank Mossman = go ele, condition build, use earth shield. DONE… that guy made me laugh so hard.
invites sent. Time it takes me to realize no one else sent the invite = 10 hours, yay me.
I am normally, with my other friend, carrying the team. We normally get ppl in 2-3 minutes because all we ask is to write what was posted and nothing else. Builds and gear? I don’t care, I took a healing necro, I took a shout warrior, I took a staff guardian. I only told them if they could change some stuff, like use this weapon or this utility please.
I normally use this in fractals and write “pie@join”, since I play with at least 1 or 2 friends we carry the other players as long as they are able to read and adapt to our tactics and demands.
reading = harder than any dungeon for some people.
what I normally do to “fight” against ppl that don’t read is that I write a lot of giberish at the start so in the LFG you can only see something like this: OMGWTFTROLLLEETIDGASWIASI. After that I write the real message. Normally ppl will read what’s inside and if they don’t I do another thing too, I write ""something"@join" so if they don’t say that “something” its a kick in 10 sec for not reading.

Nicely done, can you tell me the traits? I saw 3 in trickery so you most have taken either executioner or revealed training.
So we got the Deep Trouble Quaggan challenge, and we completed it, and we all got the reward chest w/ the commendations. But the guild didn’t get merits, and under the “Missions” tab > “Active Missions,” the challenge is still there, with a 4 hr timer.
so, can we call the zerker the “wanna be zerk”? and the real ones beserkers?
Buff Warriors party healing abilities in dungeons only.
Delete Thief, yeah, everyone hate those guys.
Put some lions in the dungeon, make sure they are hungry, this will encourage players to keep moving.
Add some of those chickens from ebonhawke in dungeons.
Uhh, since I became a mentor now I will add some info o.o.
Name: call me anything -.-… Liahm/lee/Ariete
I can speak spanish/english/cantonese(will mix english) fluently so if you are a latinamerican player and your english isn’t the best, try contacting me.
Server = BG, NA
Main class that I can give advise is Thief, but I also play every other meta class (no engi/necro, soz)
I am available from 11 am east before reset because after it, it is dungeon time with DD.
You can contact me via the game or steam: ariete-lee
Active dungeons: CoF p1/2, all SE , TA up&fwd, HotW p1, all AC, all CoE. Arah = contact an arah mentor, teaching that for me = you will listen to “FEEL THE KICK” at lupi, and all CM.
communication = either DD TS or Noob TS
It’s RNG… bad luck
Don’t you see? Colossus is trying to fight against the exploiters, he is evolving so he can go under the ground and see the underwater for himself.
AI is adapting so fast that it tries to copy some players tactics.
From what I was told, the “attack” stat was going to change after the patch so we can easily calculate our real attack. Just wait until the patch for that.
For the 5th question, you mean damage from a single blow / skill or power(because 6k power is way too high)?
What the thief brings: 25 vul stacks – thief guild to increase the speed against the carrier.
Also the shadowstep to the destroyer room. Why this is needed? to speed the chit chat from the npcs, ofc if it isn’t RNG
I… I feel so useless _… losing my potions/food (well, the potion not that much, but the food) and never noticing it…
At least my tactics works.
no… my plans, they were spread so fast… meh, it looks like a good plan doesn’t stay a secret for too long. I want to see how you guys can improve it.
SE P3, If you kill ALL the elites in the car, the car will go back down and call for reinforcement. while being down, you can’t hit it/target
SE P3, If you kill ALL the elites in the car, the car will go back down and call for reinforcement. while being down, you can’t hit it/target
So I just went into HotW to check it out. He had regen / the stomp / lightning attack / fear.
So… the funniest things happen to my main class… I feel so sad… NAH, I also hated most of the ppl playing the same class as I do.
So, to follow the main topic – my funniest moment was in fractals lv 2, yes lv 2 for karma with a friend. We had this guard using scepter/focus and hammer. Before the battle against Mai Trin there are some mobs, we cleared them all but the champ. While we were killing the champ at melee range the guard was using scepter at like 200 range. My friend told him to go melee and he responded with " I play how I want", then changed to hammer.
If you CC the boss before he reaches the stack, he will not pull correctly.

I ran through it without problems as a thief, the only problem I found was when the events hitted, couldn’t solo it because of extra spawns
Glass cannon thief solo… pretty easy if you can dodge.
I was playing my daily fotm with my thief and tried to use smoke screen against Old tom poison dart stuff. Some time ago I was able to block those projectiles but this time I wasn’t able to block and died because of it. Is this a bug/update?
The best way to kill them (as an engineer) is to set your turrets and deactivate your skill 1… why? you will kill yourself. With other classes try to spam your condition dmg skill since confusion doesn’t affect it since you aren’t activating a skill and you are dealing dmg to them. So, try to spam your CD skill before getting confusion, if you do try to “shake it off” or just stop attacking until it finishes. The CD of that skill is like 8-9 secs and all of the dolls will use it at the same time.
Also don’t just take the boxes and run, the respawn time will be higher and no one wants to run around and see a bunch of mobs ruining their exploration.
I think that the personal story is kinda bugged… I met Tegwen and Carys at the start of my sylvari game. Later on, near the last maps, I meet Tegwen and Carys, but their speech was as like it was the first time they met me. This mission is affected by the faction mission you pick, I picked the Quaggans one, and they did appear and remember me, but Tegwen and Carys didn’t. Is this a bug or intended or it was forgot to implement speeches about sylvari characters that already met them.

Hi,
My guild ~Nyanergy~ was created a week or so ago. The first day I created it I added 1.4k influence to it(1k from the digital deluxe item and 400 from the story mode). Got +0… some minutes later I bought an ale for 1s and I got influence, but my 1.4k were lost. I wasn’t in any other guild, it was new and the 1.4k never returned. That is the first bug. I got a second bug. Since I am the creator of the guild, I should be the guild leader, but I can’t relocate the ranks of my members. The only thing I can do is to edit the ranks, but I can’t add new abilities to the ranks or level up any upgrade for the guilds(yes, I did got 500 influence for the first level 1). As a guild leader I can’t do anything, I am worried that I lost 1.4k influence for nothing and I may have to remake the guild without 1.9k influence.
