Any idea of taxes should be left to guild leaders. Some guilds have a lottery to raise money.

It’s better to donate to a local organization in your country that delivers the help directly. 3rd parties tend to siphon off the funds before they get there. It’s bad enough that credit card companies and currency exchanges take their cut.

Sharing one personal waypoint between WvW and PVE isn’t useful.

I waste no time getting to level 80. Nobody notices or cares what I use to get there. All the stones do is use up a random award slot.

Maybe 3 stones and a dye in the forge could produce another random dye.

Not a bad idea, only if portals are not used to bypass most of the puzzle. Otherwise I’m happy with just the 10 achievement points for each puzzle. And what if more jumping puzzles are added in the future?

I got it now. One hit kills. Torching ambient creatures started the counter going again. I’ve been using a bow mostly to kill the little critters for the Daily since it’s fast and requires no skill recharge time.

What's the point of ranger down skills inWvW?

in Ranger

Posted by: Carnius Magius.8091

Carnius Magius.8091

That was my point. The second two healing skills rarely if never get a chance to be used when “Finish him” is used. Are the initial countdown timers really necessary in WvW? I wouldn’t know about the others since I don’t play anything but ranger.

Leaked Notes: 900 range shortbow

What I would like to see barrage obey the laws of ballistics a little better.

Really? You want to never be able to fire it indoors/in a cave/under a tree/with any sort of obstruction over your head AND for it to be absolutely canceled by the target being under any similar sort of cover?

Yeah, I think I’ll stick with what we’ve got now, thanks.

So you totally ignored the rest of my post. That was the heart of my complaint.

Leaked Notes: 900 range shortbow

in Ranger

Posted by: Carnius Magius.8091

Carnius Magius.8091

You don’t make longbow more viable by making shortbow crappier.

Luckily they’re doing all of this:

Long Range Shot: Reduced the aftercast on this skill from .5 seconds to .25 seconds. Increased arrow speed by 15%
Rapid Fire: Reduced initial cast time by .4 seconds. Increased arrow speed by 15%
Point Blank Shot: Increased arrow speed by 15%
Barrage: Increased cripple duration by 50%.

What I would like to see barrage obey the laws of ballistics a little better. There should be no line of sight requirement when shooting arrows up in the air at the edge of wall of a keep. I mean the ballistics of shooting arrows from the ground to the top of wall should be the same from the top of the same wall to the ground. Having to stand on the very edge of the wall is for those who enjoy paying to have their armor fixed.

I’ve disconnected many times. But the strange thing is I when I log back in I’m dead and have damaged armor. Each time no enemy was in sight and I had full health.

Repairs with odd number of supplies.

Carnius Magius.8091

The +5 camp buff is really a +4 buff when used on repairs. Workers seem to have no problem with odd number of supplies. Building siege is not a problem either. Is there any reason for this. GW2 has been around long enough not to be considered bug.

What it boils down to Ranger isn’t the best class for WvW. Ranger Elites with their long recharge times make them useless in zergs.

I’m level 80 – the downgrade for the area. I was getting attacked at the time. That could be the problem. Using the wrong axe would result in all duds for that node.

What circumstances would yield 2 good hardwood logs and 1 dud from a tree which don’t remember its type? I usekittenhril axe and the tree was in Timberline Falls. This never happened to me before.

Don’t blame me for the misspelling of the axe I used. The preview pane showed the same bug in the board software.

Solution for stowing pets? (not perma-stow)

in Ranger

Posted by: Carnius Magius.8091

Carnius Magius.8091

I would settle on having the pet slots have an unequip option just like the weapon and armor slots have. Plus I would like key assignments for the stow pet/activate button.

Make stow pet permanent if required

in Ranger

Posted by: Carnius Magius.8091

Carnius Magius.8091

The problem I have with pets is that they are not needed while doing jumping puzzles. It annoys me that the pet pops out every time I fall. There’s no key to stow or unstow pets and no way to disable auto-unstow. Also it would be nice to be able to unmount one the pet slots. There are times where I need no pet exposed at all.

Audio crash with large groups

I’m having the same problem. It seems like the OP said it happens with large battles. I get warbling sound like something you would hear in an old scifi movie. I have to exit the game to get rid of the sound. This has happened many times, but once an ANET message popped up and I let it send a crash report. I’ll just have to wait and see.

Remove WVW being required for map completion

Vistas locked up in garrisons are dependent on group success which may be almost never. The vistas themselves are not difficult. With many of the good WvW players jumping ship to be on more competitive servers that leaves less chance for success. So the exploration title is server dependent and not skill dependent. It also helps being online at the right time.

Suggestion WvW Monthly/Daily

BTW. How many jumping puzzles does one have to discover before there are no more left to discover? Thus never being able complete a monthly ever again. Or do the counters reset every month? Maybe “discover” is a wrong choice of words.

Have you been to WvW lately? I can’t step foot out the waypoint without being mobbed by groups of 20 any time of the day. The way things are going it may be months before I can complete the map. The server I’m on doesn’t have the luxury of having the number of dedicated PVPers to help out. I’ll be happy to get the vistas I need and never go back to WvW. I don’t have the need to alienate my guild for a week to change servers to just get a title.

Undeliverable mail goes to limbo

Carnius Magius.8091

Rather than undeliverable mail get returned, I should have gotten a warning message that the account for the addressee does not exist. Instead the mail was accepted. It would not have been a big deal but 25 bone shards just got lost for no good reason. I know the name I put in by accident as the addressee doesn’t exist because it was a name I had just used in a web search. I doubled checked and that name could not be added to my friends list.
