How low has your server gotten Tequatl?

I have no idea why so many players and ArenaNet seem to think Dragonite Ore is lucrative. I do two or three temple bosses a day, which takes 30 to 45 minutes, and I get way more Dragonite Ore than I can do anything with.

If it was 100 of each material, or even better a fully made star, ingot and brick, then it would seem worth it. Least then it would save you a bit of gold and obsidian.

I am just really sick of the kittenty rewards vs. time/difficulty ratio in this game.

Knowing that we came together and beat him is all the reward I require.

Congrats for not being stuck in overflow for over 6 hours trying to get into your home server.

What did you get as a reward?

A rare and 100 Dragonite Ore.

Is that really all?

You get:
– the chest for killing him (character bound)
– the bonus chest for killing him (account bound)
– four Dragon Chests (one for getting him to 75%, 50%, 25%, and 0% health)

All told, I got an exotic, three rares, a handful of blues and greens, some ascended crafting mats, and a bit north of 10k karma.

Edit: I also got three Gilded Coffers from the Dragon Chests, for what it’s worth.

100 Dragonite Ore is pretty kittening nice, in addition to all those bonus chests you mentioned…Definitely worth it to get it dead.

100 dragonite ore is pretty sweet, its about 1-2 weeks of guild missions. Everything else is worth 10s

100 dragonite ore is terrible. I’d rather go do 4 temples that have a 90-100% success rate then do Teq. His loot is terrible and anyone saying that a chance at ascended weapons is worth it is crazy because every world boss and every champ chest has a chance to give you one. The only thing worth while is the mini pet that probably has an even lower chance to drop than a precursor if such a thing existed.

I’m calling it now, this whole living story has to do with one of the dragons because it is manipulating Scarlet.

5 gambits on a T3 boss.

Go spirit weapons on guardian with sword, hammer and shield plus hounds of balthazar if you are human, if not I guess mistfire wolf might work. Take all the gambits but earthquake and squeamish and go after subject seven. If you purely focus the boss the hammer will hit him away from the mini oozes to reduce healing, the sword and elite is extra damage and the shield protects you and does extra damage with it’s active every CD. You should be able to nuke him down before the weapons end.

About the quagan, it chases the weapons around and fails at killing them since it doesn’t seem like they have frailty and he doesn’t get stacks.

I got this while doing 5 gambits at once XP. I did it using 30/30/0/0/10 and taking all the spirit weapon traits except CD reduction and taking +10% on flaming targets instead. I used the hammer, sword, shield and hounds of balthazar and just nuked him while using scepter and focus. Near the end I jumped in and whirling wrathed him, got downed and beamed him to death.

The hammer was great because it kept knocking him away from his spawns.

You do know that the Ascalon fractal is the fall of Ascalon right? When you are getting ported out you hear that a giant energy surge is incoming and that is 100% the foefire.

Actually no.
It is an alternate version of the Searing (which on the other hand is the real fall of Ascalon, since Ascalon was already more or less fallen when the Foefire took place)

I can see how you think that, but from Guild Wars: Prophesy’s intro “The last day dawns on the Kingdom of Ascalon, it arrives with no fanfare, no tolling of alarms.” This means that no city was being broken into and therefore the city being sacked was Ascalon City and the surge was the foefire.

Ya I had to solo her on my guardian. Some people really do need to learn how to dodge.

@Undead
I agree with you that the scepter is useless (beyond being the only thing at 1200 range and it’s even kittenty at that). Though nothing has really changed, GS and hammer are the go to weapons and they are even what I use in the open world because the CDs are perfect for switching between the two.

Sadly I can’t agree with you on the 1h sword because I just find it totally useless along with the mace. I know some people love the mace but the only use I can find is if you’re in a dungeon with another guardian and they are using the hammer then the mace is amazing.

Can Staff be a DPS weapon?

Azoqu.8917

Though if you’re in an event and want to tag alot of mobs or even in WvW the staff becomes the best “DPS” weapon you can equip.

Put me down as another guardian who wants a bow. As much as they could fix the scepter they can never really change the skills because there would always be someone to complain about liking how the scepter was. But sadly I don’t see Anet giving us one for a good while because it would make the scepter another useless weapon for the guardian because everyone would probably just use a bow.

This is the classic problem that all gaming companies fall into. The paladin/ward warrior class has no real direction behind what it is supposed to do besides the one thing it is good at that it gives up everything else for. Then their one strength ends up being over nerfed over time.

This is just the wow classic/BC paladin all over again. Useless beyond its strength which was buffing. In the guardians case it is bunkering itself which has been getting constant small nerfs almost every balancing patch and it will eventually be no longer viable.

Edit: Oh and almost all of these classes are all melee focused with no way to stay on their target making it a joke for anyone with range kiting abilities. I don’t understand how people die to a guardian when he can really only get around 2 hits in every 10 seconds when wielding a sword because there is no way to stop the person from escaping.

It most definitely is the marks he lays down. So if you dodge them, which you should be anyhow, you will not get stacks.

I know of the quest you’re talking about as I did the same thing except my god was Dwayna so it doesn’t have an effect there.

Hello,

I do not know if it has been done yet, but I am making a guild that’s sole purpose is to have a chat for finding people to do dungeons easier. It would work by when you want to find a group for a dungeon you would end up representing it in order to ask who wants to do what. Once you are done asking you no longer have to represent the guild and can than represent your own guilds so that people are not asking if you want to run something when you already are. This will also be a good source for when guild groups can only get 4 people for a run and need a 5th.

If you want to have an easier time finding a group than spamming the zone the dungeon is in or LA, give either Azoqu or Arya Nights Flower a whisper for an invite.

Thanks

When using the utility Hold the Line, it does not remove a condition when you have the trait Pure of Voice (sometimes it does, but not even a quarter of the time). Hold the Line removes a condition when paired with Runes of the Soldier but not with the trait.
