Double HP not compatible with Inquest GMII?

Just finished the Golem II event in about 6 minutes. Don’t know what the problem is. Took maybe 1 minute more than before the patch.
I was using ranger longbow only spaming 1,2,5,7,8,9,10 from a point next to the stairs without getting hit once.

  1. Have any of you been trying builds with less used weapon sets like D/F or Staff?

In PvP I’m running D/F since my first match with Ele. First it was 0/0/2/6/6.
Now its full earth water arcane.
ER, Earthshield, Teleport and Mist form. Pre Patch FGS, now Elite Glyphe.
Celestial and Rune of Balthazar. Bleed and poison on weapon swap.

Many people say water #4 with focus is weak. But having a range chill is just awesome to use as gap closer. RTL might be better when you are in 1vs1. In team fights your mates can also close the gap when enemy runs away.

Love the skill combination on Air, especially agianst rangers.
They always start with ranger skills -> swirling winds.
No range? Ok, I go melee -> shocking aura, followed by lightning touch when aura ended.
Now the dmg part on fire. #3 and #2. Meanwhile I sure got some dmg.
Water Att, Watch out for heal to interrup with #5 (doesnt work most of the time xD), #3, (+3 Might), #2
Healing on earth #5 or glyph use. Im running the earth trait with 33% less earth cool down. This way I get more secure stomps and secured heals. The reduced condition duration on me is not so worthy since I can remove them very often. Diamond skin is also active.

Or starting in earth to reflect longbow #2

When the time comes where defending your point is important I use the following combo on an approaching enemy (you can’t belive how often it works. It’s like the don’t have condition remove or stabilty at all).

Air 5, Earth 3, Leap on Earth 3, Water 3, Water 4, Fire and attack
You win about 9 seconds.
Doesnt work on guardain because of aegis.

There is an option that enables to use those skill right on the first time pressing a button. This makes the skill pop out at the location where the mouse is.
With this option active, is it possible to make it auto attack when it’s set on as one?
Can’t test it right now.

[Thief] Deadly Trapper not for all traps

in Bugs: Game, Forum, Website

Posted by: DirtyDan.4759

DirtyDan.4759

Ambush inflicts invulnerabilty, no might gain.
Shadow Trap inflicts invulnerabilty and gives might not on setting down the trap, but on activting the shadow step after someone stepped on it. BUT it gives you 10 stacks of might instead of 5.
The other two traps work correctly with Deadly Trapper.

Tequatl - "I found it" Achievement

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: DirtyDan.4759

DirtyDan.4759

On the daily reset Tequatl run, this happened even before the update. It might still be needed to arrange a group specifically for this after they re-balance.

For me in germany the reset is at 2am. I tried it this night. On my server: only 2 other guys. Guested to another one: Full map.

Tequatl - "I found it" Achievement

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: DirtyDan.4759

DirtyDan.4759

Hello,
Since conditions are now strong on world bosses their HP goes down pretty fast. Tequatl uses his vortexes in the second phase if he is still able to fight after the stun. And this is where the problem is. He instantly flies away after the stun duration.
Either there is too much damage or the map is so empty that no one even tries to attack him.

How about everyone who needs this achievement meets up on a certain date/time to let tequatl trigger the vortexes?
Do you see another way?

I would really like to complete this achievement.

DF or DD 00666 full cantrips seems like it will be a staple roaming build. Rock solid + Diamondskin + CD-reduced Ether Renewal and you’ll be facerolling any and all condi specs, while still being decent at handling everything else.

Ether Renewel’s cd is 18s now. With 20% less cd it’s back to 15s. The master trait on water giving vigor and regeneration also applies on it

Hopefully our german retailer Saturn will have it in stock. Games at Gamestop are 99% of the time more expensive than anywhere else. We don’t have Best Buy and Newegg (never heard of Newegg)

Was about to ask the same question

It says that anyone with an older account that upgrades (with no deadline to upgrade) will get the slot. Presumably you could upgrade months after HoT releases from any vendor and still get the slot.

You read that wrong. It says:
For all players who registered the core Guild Wars 2® game prior to January 23, 2015 and who upgrade their account by prepurchasing and registering any Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns edition before Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns‘ launch, we will add one additional character slot to your Guild Wars 2 account.

So, I understand that includes boxed editions as long the upgrade is made before the official launch. Is that right?

That’s the question. Boxed and online version? Only online version?
What we know is that the registration has to be completed before launch.

You can never win this, Anet

They would have pleased everyone if they had added a free char slot for vets when they announced the free core game included in the addon.
Also: They should have seen it coming.
With GW1 we experienced two times the introduction of new classes.
What came along? Right. 1 free char slot.

This whole drama could have been avoided.

So, Staff Eles.. What're We Looking At?

Thinking the fire air water staff ele will be the all in dmg build. The stander staff ele build will still be air water ar but it will be able to be more dmg aimed then before. earth water ar can be the super tank build not sure if it will be that good though.

Isn’t bountiful power moving to arcane? Pretty sure arcane will be worth more than water with that.

Well going water gives you the +20% dmg vs vina targets and +10% when your at 90% hp (i think you do not need to be in water but i could be wrong). Kind of it all adds up but i guess 3 fire 3 air 3 ar would be good dmg too.

You only get the 20% when you are in water and since we dont have lingering elements anymore I won’t use it. The only dmg skill on water staff is #2.

The only trait that is now baseline isn’t mentioned in the patch notes. Blasting Staff is baseline and it means it is always active.
