Trickery is already a staple so the evade uptime and burst damage is already here. By making Preparedness baseline, it can open up a wide range of builds. Increasing AA damage doesn’t change anything in terms of diversity, thus doing it the wrong way.
It wouldn’t help my D/D thief tbh.
Of course it will since you’ll have more initiatives at your disposal, however the goal is to encourage diversity.
As long as I can’t land a CnD because the enemy is faster, evades, has passive and active blocks it won’t help me one bit.
Basilisk Venom: While under the effects of this venom, your attacks are unblockable.
Says nothing about the venom stun going through. Just that your ‘attacks’ are unblockable.
Looks like it’s working as intended and they gotcha with word play.
Also I believe this is meant to be used in conjunction with backstab. Making your backstab unblockable. So if that’s not happening, I believe that part is the bug.
If people wanted to wvw instead of EOTM they would. They’re not there for a reason. If you remove EOTM, there’s no guarantee they’ll go to WvW.
That’s why I also proposed cutting out WvW rewards out of EOTM. Or at the very least limiting rank-ups in EOTM to one per day, similar to what was done for PVP custom arenas. If they like EOTM so much they can still play it, but if they want badges, proofs, memories, rank-up chests and dailies – welcome to WvW. Because having it all in EOTM and having it unrestricted feels like having PVP progression for killing training golems in HOTM.
You do realize what people have been doing in EotM, they’ll just do it in normal WvW. Right?
The term ‘karma train’ in WvW was coined before EotM existed.
The real problem is the game does not reward players for holding and defending objectives as well as taking them. That’s the core of the issue. Considering WvW mode is the most unrewarding mode in the game period.
If you have infinite gliding mastery, use all of your endurance and then switch off your glider. You won’t be able to deploy your glider for a few seconds. Enough time for you to fall helplessly to your death.
They used to drop reasonably well before the nerf. Figures now that the collection is important, that you can go for weeks playing EotM and it still doesn’t drop.
I do not think they can turn it on till they finish working on it, it is not quite so simple as flicking a switch. We just have to be patient DreamyAbaddon.
A free to play player was able to get into it with no problems a few months ago.

Are you serious? I have 2 bank tabs full of these things and I’m barely getting through them with the Empyreal Fragments eater I earned from Wintersday.
I actually had to stop playing content to earn less Empyreal Fragments than my eater could consume.
I kind of hate to say it, but Bearbows became known for a reason…
Rangers with bows and tanky pets allow for “careless” play. Or, in this case, play with less dexterity. Bear pets are easy to get, too. If you don’t need quite that much tanking, then use a different pet for less tank/more damage, and change to bow/Greatsword.
Pretty much this.
All the rest of you are terrible for giving such terrible advice.
Keep in mind I’m not the person on reddit. Whilst the person on reddit finally did get their items returned (only because of after causing a fuss on reddit). It is still concerning for myself and others on Arena Net’s stance when using their trading post.
TL;DR: Person sells expensive item on TP, gold seller buys said item. Anet takes away the gold from the person who sold the item and doesn’t refund the item.
Arena Net’s response on said reddit thread:
We monitor all incoming and outgoing sources of wealth. The gold that was used to purchase your arcane slivers (4 of them) for a total of 499.99 Gold originated from a RMT source and while your item listings may have been setup 8 months ago, that doesn’t change where the wealth originated (which was banned).
While the transactions completed, and do not appear to be any fault of yours, we still needed to reclaim the gains from it to remove the wealth from the economy that you should not have gained in the first place. Since we only removed 300g, it looks like you are netting about a positive 166 gold from this. We’ll let you keep that, and I’ll take the strike off your account for buying gold.
Should we avoid using the trading post with expensive items, just in case some one who violates TOS may end up buying it?
Having 8 masteries left in order to go for the. I have 8 masteries waiting for myself to be claimed in the living world season 2 story line. As I’ve did the season 2 story when it came out, but didn’t bother with any of the “optional” achievements.
It’s a buggy mess.
I fulfill the requirements for achievements and they do not credit me for them. Even after following the guides off Dulfy. I’ve tried doing so with multiple characters and no success. If I even dare to use my revenant, I get stuck inside of walls during cutscenes and are unable to progress.
How is any one suppose to get Tyria masteries that haven’t done so prior to HoT release?
I’ve hated Rangers since the beginning because you have to have an AI pet at the loss of personal dps. When Guardians were given the +3000 Health trait, I seriously expected them to give Rangers a trait that removed the pet and granted them +20% damage.
If you want to play a ranger with out a pet. Guardian’s dragonhunter is now there for you.
I wish they kept the jumping puzzle as set rounds like the clock tower.
The hardest part of the puzzle is the presents area due to the artificial difficulty that the bugs and giant player characters are presenting.
All of my falls in the puzzle are either because the presents exploding too quickly or because I miss the first, max-distance jump due to larger characters blocking my view of the platform edge.
Genuine compliment to Arena Net’s anti-cheat team.
Playing another online, multiplayer game on the side (it has a lot of theft and auto in it). Seeing first hand how harmful it is to the game environment when others use third party software and letting it get out of control. I commend the zero tolerance policy and swift action upon dealing with the Winter’s day jumping puzzle bots.
For those of you saying ‘go do the dive achievement, takes ten minutes.’
I present to you the ‘not so secret jumping puzzle’ with the dive point right up the top of it. A jumping puzzle that is so tedious and relies on laggy mechanics to traverse (and more than half the time is instant, unavoidable death), I’m calling BS on this one.
I love jumping puzzles. I hate this particular one. That says a lot.
One thing about players with large characters is that you can learn to ignore them. Your character is always at a certain location on your screen. You can eventually get used to jumping with other players and jump based on where that location on your screen is.
The problem is at the presents how ever. Where you have to make that max distance jump. Normally I’m pretty good and jumping. But on occasion I do miss that jump because a bunch of over sized people are obscuring where the platform ends.
The problem is mostly attributed to the presents being bugged. You shouldn’t be making a max distance jump. There are those blue presents there for a reason. But ever since they let the jumping puzzle be running at a constant instead of rounds like the clock tower, it’s been like that.
