Guild Wars 2

I watched a warrior use frenzy + hundred blades on a pack of risen chickens only to be insta-gibbed by their explosions

You believe the goal of casters is to “deal as much damage while taking a small amount”.

It seems to me like a counter attack ability both blocks damage while also dealing damage, fulfilling both of your goals….

I’m pretty sure you’ll find that diminishing returns are a good thing for the game in the long run.

DR is anti player and therefore not a good thing. There are other methods of controlling drops.

Except it isn’t really. It is anti farmer, DR benefits every single person who doesn’t spend hours farming trash in cursed shore.

Says more about the company you keep than the game.

When every second post is from the OP you can tell they are losing the argument.

I’m pretty sure you’ll find that diminishing returns are a good thing for the game in the long run.

Hopefully that does work, because I just bought 30 sigils of purity in hopes that the price will rise

Unless you bought them a week ago you’re already too late. These guys are making their money off you now.

Then what the hell is the point of transmutation stones? You know, one of the things people actually buy from the store. You know, a source of income for the developers.

The best way to make money in GW2 is to post on reddit that you found a recipe, regardless of whether it is true or fake, after you have purchased all the materials in ludicrous amounts for 1/10 their now inflated price.

You’re about 98% as effective as someone with full ascended stuff would be.

Just think, if more of you were in the middle helping golems get through instead of sitting on the ledge doing 1/6 damage you probably would have got the chest!

Dey takin our jerbs.

This is what you all sound like.

Literally the biggest thread on the forums at the moment.

Legendaries are only cosmetic skins, nothing more….and not even the nicest skins in my opinion.

I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who thought Bolt and Twilight were not the best skins for a one handed and a gs

You don’t know a lot of people.

Proof that no-one actually wants challenging content.

Except you can get infusions that aren’t agony resistance, ergo their only purpose is not Fractals.

It is great that (some) events scale in such a way as to provide an actual challenge now, instead of just throwing 3x more normal enemies at us.

This makes me laugh.

Overflows are their own servers. The dragon event won’t be occurring in the overflow.

Blaming the condition because you have your #1 on auto?

Solution: turn it off. Also, cleanse.

Rangers have no cleanse skill.

Healing Spring.

Confusion should have a 2 second internal cool-down.

and the damage per confusion hit escalated significantly, so instead of players chipping themselves down, they can kill themselves in a single hit: else confusion becomes obsolete.

No, just add an internal cool-down of 2 seconds, its OP on high-hitting attacks like 100b.

If you have a stack of confusion on you and use 100 blades you pretty much deserve to be insta-gibbed.

Have you done all the jumping puzzles?

You would kitten a brick if you knew the kind of shutdown mesmers (and necros to an extent) could bring in GW1. Especially to a melee profession.

Confusion is tame in comparison.

DR was in GW1. Nothing new there.

Yeah because when all anyone really does in Orr is farm Penn/Shelter/Plinx and nothing else a change to those events is totally uncalled for….

and you have considered that we don’t farm pent/shelter because it is “fun”, but just maybe because we’re trying to make gold to one day craft a legendary?

no?

so gtfo

I couldn’t agree more that it is a very boring activity, but the lack of other options to RELIABLY bag some gold in this game kinda herd you towards those most profitable areas, like CoF, Fractals, and now deceased pent/shelter.

You see, A.Net is looking after your mental health, encouraging you to explore other content so you don’t get bored and complain that penn/shelter/plinx is the only way to make gold.

Yeah because when all anyone really does in Orr is farm Penn/Shelter/Plinx and nothing else a change to those events is totally uncalled for….

Bahahahaha didn’t break the balance of the game? what?

It is sad that you need a game breaking crutch to have fun.

Then I must be the most lucky person with my approx 9 ecto’s per 10 salvages.

You get 9 ectos from 10 salvages because sometimes you get more than one ecto from a salvage. The Master Kit has 25% chance of giving you at least one ecto.

No it doesn’t. That 25% is the chance to get orichalcum, ancient wood, hardened leather and gossamer.

You can get globs of ectoplasm using crude salvage kits which have 0% chance at rarer materials.

nolop.8095:

ArenaNet made quite a list of good jokes that can be found here

LOL! You sure showed them!

Nilkemia.8507:

Not useful then. Most of my Major and Superior Runes are all different types, some coming from the Personal Story, and others when my luck decides to work. And most are already in armor I’d like to keep, and there’s no way to separate them without losing one. Yet another interesting idea badly executed.

You realise you can just put another rune on the piece of armour and it will overwrite the previous rune right?

The rune system allows further character customisation and is no way badly executed.

A.Net should wait until every single player has completed their daily before resetting them. Rather than reset at a set, constant time. /sarcasm

You’re right, I should work for Arena.Net.

You got almost 1500 hours of play out of GW2. I think you got your money’s worth of content.

This has to be a joke.

See all messages by bigtime.7410.

This forum needs an ignore function.

Serious? How do you have so much trouble dodging a total of 15 attacks in a 24 hour period.

You can accidentally hit the dodge button and complete it in 15 minutes.

If a poorly organised group can’t beat a certain part then what right does the poorly organised group have to advance further?

Firebringer doesn’t light up your surroundings FYI. So if thats you’re only reason for wanting it I wouldn’t bother.

If you want it because it is an awesome looking sword then go for it.

How many tiers does WoW have now? 16? 17?

No.

Obviously haven’t seen the videos of melee warriors soloing Lupi…

Obviously can’t comprehend the many hours of practice it takes to successfully solo a boss like Lupicus.

Well that’s odd… I haven’t seen a video of a ranged character doing it.

Obviously haven’t seen the videos of melee warriors soloing Lupi…

Nobody complains about things that make them win.

Why the kitten would you?

The inventory item that you buy from the crafting trainer is account bound. I.e. you can buy this recipe with one character, put it in the bank and then use it with another character.

Once you use the recipe from your inventory you will only gain the recipe for the character that used the recipe.

Character A has 10k karma while character B has 10 karma. Character B cannot afford to buy the recipe so character A buys the recipe from the vendor and puts it in the bank.

Character B then takes the recipe from the bank and uses it. The recipe is now learned on character B ONLY.

It is always cheaper to craft them yourself.

If someone wants to make any profit by selling things they make they need to add 15% to their sale price.

Aelaren.3784:

The majority of people who post on the official forums (the 5%) who also think anet changes the salvage rate of ectos on the fly whenever they don’t get an ecto every time

You mean, like this for a couple of months?
http://i46.tinypic.com/2j51mgz.jpg >> http://i45.tinypic.com/2hhgcn8.jpg
Yeah. Petty whiners, those.

I wont even post all the links to threads about loot nerfes (and believe me official forums are not the only place you can find them).

You really proved something with a screenshot of an N=12 sample…

I bet you never took a screenshot the times when you got 18 ectos out of 12 rares.

Let me fix that for you.

The majority of people who post on the official forums (the 5%) who also think anet changes the salvage rate of ectos on the fly whenever they don’t get an ecto every time think there is a huge discrepancy between what they’re saying and what is actually happening.

Dun dun dun shock horror drops were never nerfed.

Yeah, the average price over a recent period is 1.31 G. If the price is trending down, you get less. On the other hand if the price was trending up you could get more.
