Dungeon Patch Jan 28th Update.

Dungeons

  • Polished dungeons and removed the ability to use waypoints while any player is in combat. *
    As an old Gw1 player of many years, Interest is quickly waning in the supposed ‘dynamic’ nature of Gw2.
    Begins to sound too much like P2P. Is it a revenue raising attempt?
    Only way to rez without party wipe = sell more Resurrection Orbs
    All members receive guaranteed armor damage = sell more instant repair canisters.

Very disappointed. All l can say is please revise this decision

This forum cracks me up. Everything is a conspiracy.

PS: Stop dying and you don’t have to worry about waypointing.

How about you just add them to all the spawn points, instead? That way I don’t have to sit in a queue if I forget food or siege on a character.

Props to [RISE] for being the first Kaineng guild to bother with duels this whole matchup. 0 Props to door machine for calling in enough people to make us outmanned on home BL whenever they see half their numbers show up. I would really like to hear some broken english justification for why they needed to bounce from SBI to tier 8. The only answer I can figure out is too many players not enough doors.

They wanted to “practice” lol

Are Legendary Weapons Symbols of Achievment?

in Black Lion Trading Co

Posted by: Blix.8021

Blix.8021

People saying that you just buy a legendary from the TP are lazy and angry people. People that are just mad about how hopeless they are themselves, but instead of getting mad on themselves and try to get better, it’s much easier to denigrate the others.

Legendary = Remarkable enough to be famous; very well known. Celebrated or described in legend: a legendary hero.

What is Legendary about the steps that is required to obtain this item exactly? Do you think that people will be amazed at these accomplishments? I personally don’t think Arenanet understands the meaning of the word Legendary.

I believe they ran out of time. They didn’t have enough time to do what they initially wanted with Legendaries and just threw a couple of ingrediants together and voila. Theres your Legendary. Took them 6 minutes.

I think you just proved the poster you quoted’s point quite nicely.

I’m not talking about a single guy, I’m talking about following their zerg and killing them with significantly fewer people and them not responding at all as their comrades die.

You seem to think the people you’re playing against care about PPT or the score. I know maguuma does not give one kitten about points, they just want to fight people, which is why they are fun opponents and why you are not.

Enjoy your promotion to tier 1 where people evidently care about the score.

Best class for running with the zerg?

in WvW

Posted by: Blix.8021

Blix.8021

In an organized zerg you can be any class and be useful. In a pug zerg, ranged classes with escapes are the best so you don’t die when the pugs do something dumb like run into a bunch of cannon fire. When I switched from my necro to my ele, I noticed I got a lot more bags, most likely because my AoEs were doing a lot more damage. Remember aoe caps at 5 targets (which sucks) so things that look cool like necromancer’s epidemic aren’t nearly as impressive as they seem.

To the speedhacking rifle engi from an unnamed server on DB BL: Thanks for the badges, you suck so much you can’t even kill me with a cheat and yet you kept coming back for more.

How do you know he was speed hacking? Just curious is all.

1. jerky, laggy movement where he outran a character with swiftness while he had no swiftness
2. after dying he reappeared (literally he materialized in front of us) within ~15 seconds even though his server had no wp anywhere near that close

I hope you also reported them after milking them for badges. Whatever server they are from.

I got 4 or 5 people who saw him to report him for “botting”, which is I guess the closest thing. Just makes me mad that someone can even do that in game.

The price of precursors are controlled by the player-created demand curve and the soft cap that the mystic forge creates. Unlike a manufactured product in the real world, ANYONE can manufacture a precursor. Dusk is priced highly because players value it more so than the other precursors. But no matter how highly valued it becomes, it can still be produced in the mystic forge, and after a certain price it becomes economical to do so.

This is not complicated.

My ‘theory’ happens every week when someone tries to list dusk for 750+ gold and nobody buys it before the lister is undercut.

Precursor Prices

If you really play 8 hours a day, 50g a day is not hard to make with certain dungeon runs. You can do the runs with a friend and ask him to lend you the gold he makes from those dungeon runs and then pay him back later. Or you can sell off some of your stock of ectos/crafting materials to afford the purchase then farm them back later. Maybe it’s not desirable, but it’s doable.

So the casual player will just have to wait until the price hits the point where people decide “i’m not paying x gold, i’ll try my luck in the forge” and then buy it when it reaches that point. Or preferably, when someone decides to deeply undercut that point and make a quick sale. Legendaries were not intended for ‘casuals’ anyway, they were intended to give people with nothing better to do to have something to work toward.

I bought my tooth frostfang for 318 gold 2 days ago. Since then, the 3 others that were listed have sold for 319, 320, and 340 gold. Then, there were no teeth on. Then, someone put one on for 599 gold, hoping to capitalize on the lack of current listings. Since then he has been undercut 4 times and the current price is 445 gold.

The price does not ‘go up and up every single day’.

I said ‘more economical’ not ‘guaranteed’. If you want a guaranteed one, you buy it on the trading post with gold you earned by playing the game. See how that works?

Or you could just work harder like the other people who have their precursors/legendaries. You are not a special snowflake.

It’s not hard to farm gold. And there’s a soft cap on the price of precursors because after a certain point it becomes more economical to craft rares and throw them in the forge. Everyone who wants one will get one eventually, but because it takes time and patience you see three threads every day on each subforum complaining about one aspect of the legendary process or another.

Sorry, but guild wars 1 had obby armor which required you to grind 2 specific tedious instances. To even get into those instances your region had to have favor of the gods, which required OTHER PEOPLE to win PvP matches. Few people had obby armor prior to the perma shadowform assassin era.

Whiner’s gonna whine I guess.

Favour of the Gods was changed back in 2006 (I think), which extended it when someone maxed a title track.

I know. Still, in it’s original implementation (when obby armor was actually impressive to have) you had to rely on other people to win PvP so you could get your shiny PvE crap. In GW2 you can grind whenever you want.

There were 4 axes on 2 days ago at 318-340 gold, I bought one of them for personal use. I can show you a picture of my character wielding it if you want. Not everything is a conspiracy.

I currently play in Tier 1, Anet have announced a rating reset and likely my server will fall to tier 3-4-5 at the end of this week as we are in a hard struggle. We will fight on.

It is likely three different teams will be in tier 1 at the end of the week. I will congratulate them and fight on.

Next week we will fight again and if good enough we will move up a tier or two.

If we earn it we will return to tier 1. Not a fan of the reset but it is just a new challenge.

It won’t be a challenge though, you’ll be a tier 1 server fighting tier 5 servers. It’s just a minor hassle.

…this week, SBI has had the most fun they’ve had in weeks. This is at the price of several weeks of getting smashed. With populations now mostly stable, the trend shouldn’t change.

WHICH part of what you said justifies the rating reset?

I’m just not understanding what the opposition to a rating reset is…

It’ll be based off of the results from the current match-ups, right?

So whatever happens this week determines next week’s match-ups.

Which seems to be in agreement with what you said about SBI finally getting “stabilized.”

With all the unequal matches previously (whether due to population shifts or whatever), it’s clear that the prior ratings weren’t correct.

The current ratings are a hell of a lot more accurate than they will be for the next month if this reset goes through.

you just named the 3 assassin classes. They are all fragile classes which using kiting and trickery to negate damage.

I will admit though that the stealth ability on the mesmer and thief is complete BS. I don’t have a thief but I do play a mesmer and it feels cheap. At least with mistform you know where they are going. Why Anet hasn’t allowed people to knock players out of stealth is mental. At least reward the player for guessing right.

It has nothing to do with being good. It has to do with there actually being people online. Currently, we’re outmanned on eternal at 7:30 eastern time.

Sooo, it’s Anet’s fault that you all transferred to a low tier server to stomp, but you’re also OK with the stomping because Kaineng has a happy-go-lucky attitude.

Pretty sure any server would be OK with 4 weeks of free badge farming. But I guess you have to actually kill people to get badges though, so I’m not actually sure what you guys are so happy-go-lucky about. Pathological need to see the map painted green? Unmitigated hatred of doors? Power to turn forum tears into a renewable energy source?

Please zerg your way back into tier 1 so we don’t have to play you anymore. Thanks.

if we wanted to be in T1 we would have transferred to JQ instead… we are trying to contribute and help build what Kaineng wants to be

Obviously you don’t want to be in tier 1, because in tier 1 they have enough players to fight back. You can’t farm karma from an entire server’s borderlands if there are people defending it.
