Sigil stacks drop when you’re downed, not defeated.

The wvw invisibility thing is a problem with the game that they are working on improving. Don’t think there’s anything you can do.

Just because everyone does it doesn’t mean it needs to be nerf…

This actually tends to be a really good indicator that something needs to change. Either a nerf to the thing everyone is doing or a buff to other things to make them more competitive. Now, I do tend to like option b over a but they aren’t mutually exclusive either. They may be buffing other areas in the future.

If your tinfoil is too tight around the ears you can always just not use the system. It behaves fairly predictably though. Prices spike when anet adds new stuff to the gem store and then fall back down.

It works on player supply and demand, like the traders in GW1. Anet isn’t arbitrarily changing the prices.

Combo question

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

crimsonvapor: “When applicable, the stats of the character that activated the finisher are used to calculate the combo effects. This is most relevant to combos that inflict damaging conditions, as well as the healing effects of Water Fields.”

Straight out of the wiki page linked at the top of the thread.

And yes I am sure you can use multiple finishers in the same field. I’ve done it with multiple blasts on my engi, multiple leaps on my mes and combinations of leaps whirls and blasts on my guardian. You probably just need to work on your timing.

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

The newest field is the one that is used (think of it like the one that’s on top). So in your example you would get might instead of healing.

Mortar and especially X are subpar but crate is one of the best elites in the game. I think other classes need elite balance passes before us. Not that I wouldn’t like to see changes to our weak skills eventually.

Yes you can convert cash to gems to gold in game with anet’s blessing. Last time I looked gems → gold was like 70s/100.

Not only should there be a cap but, it should also reset every week. At this rate the community will be so segregated that no one will be able to find people to play with.

This would be even worse for casual players. Every week you would be forced to farm for hours just to get back to where you were the week before.

I don’t like some of the class changes they’ve made. Should I ask for separate servers where thieves are never nerfed?

Add "harassment" to the reportng options

in Suggestions

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

People killing you in a jumping puzzle in a wvw zone is not harassment. I don’t care why you’re there, you are in a pvp zone and you should expect to be attacked. Siege doesn’t change anything.

Tapping an enemy for loot/DE credit then leaving is not harassment. There is no rule that says if you attack a mob you have to stay and finish it.

Starting an event then leaving is not harassment. There is no rule that says you have to finish an event that you start.

Honestly this is probably the main reason they don’t have a harassment report option. Players will drown them in whiny, needless reports that they need to pay people to sift through.

I love asura and their animations are the best. The problem I’m finding with them is that armor and weapons are so small they are hard to see in the world. Since the point of the game is to be the prettiest princess, this may be a factor for you.

I don’t really like the salad people.

With groups already looking for fractal level 4, 5, 8, 15.. anybody who hasn’t logged in since yesterday is BONED.

If there are so many BONED people shouldn’t it be pretty easy to start your own lvl 1 group?

Give it a week or two and people will get bored/hit a difficulty wall and go back to doing other things.

Mesmer Portal trivializes so much content

I think the Necromancer Flesh Worm skill was brought up because it IS a teleport skill just like the Mesmer portals.

It’s much more like blink than portal. Blink can’t cross gaps or elevations either.

you pay for put items in the TP so you will get more money just selling it to a basic merchant

Think of it like a convenience fee for selling items out in the wild. If you are near a vendor sell it to them, otherwise sell it for a few cp less and make room for that other new item you picked up (a net gain).

Mesmer Portal trivializes so much content

Awesome.6120

Why doesn’t my flesh worm for example give me true teleport as a necromancer?

Why can’t my illusions for example be triggerable blast finishers? Why can’t diversion give me death shroud? Why do we have cooldowns instead of spammable abilities like a thief?

The answer is that the classes are different and asking for them all to have access to the same skills makes for a boring game.

Questions/advice for a casual player

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

Every 5 levels, but a new set of gear from the trading post. It will be sufficient.

Every 10 levels is quite sufficient.

You can get by just fine without crafting. In fact on your first character I think it’s probably better to skip it and sell most of the crafting materials you find.

You can start doing dungeons at 30 but you may find AC kind of difficult at that level.

If you believe that rangers are the most broken class. Why wouldn’t you manage most of your time around fixing them? Instead of giving other classes heaps of time.

“A chain is as strong as its weakest link” kind of thing.

They have to budget their time according to how many warrior fixes and buffs are on the list.
