Farm cof. You have the benefit of wanting lodestones that also come from one of the best gold farming spots.

Karma Light Legging Armor for PTV, where?

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

Well you can’t get that in orr and I don’t know anywhere else to get exotic armor with karma.

The stat distributions on orr armor really leave a lot to be desired. No idea why we need precision/toughness/condition dmg at 5(!!!) temples.

I keep spy kits and teleport guns on all my characters at all times. I mostly use healing pods on my ele since I can drop one and blast a lot.

Drop a unique, account bound token at the end of each dungeon path. Require one of each to be turned in for an account bound precursor of your choice. I think I’ve seen more legendary weapons than dungeon master titles. People can still buy a run if they can’t do arah 4 or something.

Leveling Question...

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

You will level slower than if you were in a zone of the proper level. It’s not a massive difference though so you can still do it if you want.

Dye question

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

I never use silver but there is a ‘silver’ dye. For gold I have used butter (and butter variants), white gold, illumination and redemption. The last 3 are my favorites. White gold is lighter and more understated as you would expect, illumination is a bright, light gold and redemption is a darker more orangy gold.

Calculating regeneration...

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

The formula you quoted is for the regeneration provided by healing signet alone (side note: healing signet is trash). The formula for the regular regeneration boon (like what you would provide with the banner trait) is: 5 + (1.5625 * Level) + (0.125 * Healing Power) per second

Extra Trait Points

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

And if you did mean skill points, I believe the only current ways to obtain them are from leveling (even filling the exp bar at 80), those challenges in the world and that item from the fractal vendor.

Profanity thoughts

A profanity filter isn’t a license to use profanity.

I like that the filter is optional when talking with friends. They aren’t going to report me for cursing though.

Monthly Salvaging Question.

in Players Helping Players

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

In a short month like Feb. is comes out to a bit less than 18 salvages per day. If you salvage white items and salvage items regularly then it’s really easy. If you don’t then it will probably be annoying.

That said seeing i have to burden 4 other people with a complete noob whos only dungeon skill is being able to ignore big red circles on the ground which dungeon could a blind man with a one legged guide dog solo?
Perhaps if i do 5 runs of that one no one will notice im a naked corpse near the start.

Perhaps if you do 5 runs you won’t suck so much anymore. Who knows, you might even have a little fun.

Why was 50/50 WvW Kills removed from monthly?

I will have 500 salvages before the end of the month without trying. Just because you don’t do it doesn’t make it stupid.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

Because the vocal minority on the forums keeps yelling until they get what they want, the most dumbed down and casual game ever where you get your monthlies by sitting in LA and you get through your dungeons by killing a series of critters.

And you are definitely not yelling on the forum trying to get what you want.

February monthly

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

Next month’s I believe has dungeon runs. Another month I probably won’t get the monthly because I die enough times that I lose money. Making friends and what not in game (and out of game) is hard for me. And the guild I’m in isn’t active enough to really do a dungeon and finding a guild that is decent for dungeons but won’t force me to be more active than I choose to be is not easy for me (very very very reserved).

You are playing a completely anonymous online game where no one can see or speak to you if you don’t want. Break out of that shell a bit.

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Awesome.6120

Awesome.6120

No. There is no flag for good and bad loot. It is just RNG.

Are you saying there is no diminished return(DR) on loot drops? That my reduced loot drops only after a few minutes, and my increased junk drops are nothing but RNG, no DR at all?

No he’s saying that your account doesn’t have a flag that automatically gives you worse drops than others. I suspect that was just you being intentionally obtuse though.

3.5s at max is really not that much unless you are respeccing literally constantly.

edit: unless you are one of those noobs who thinks you need to buy the book every time you want to respec?
