Guild Wars 2

MassDelusion.9130:

Braham did the right thing.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=sTcBgs2huRo#t=20

lol, that actually makes a lot of sense. That makes Braham smarter than majority of the heroes out there in other games/movies/comics. Villains do the same thing in opposite situation and babble on forever about their plans instead of killing the hero and then they get own’t. I still wanted to hear it from Scarlet but I’m sure they’ll find a different way to reveal everything.

The colored one is Infused? I’d be more than happy to not have to spend 250 ectos so I’m okay with it. XD

Just wanted to say thank you for making these look more edible.
All the extra colors really make it delicious.

I liked that last instance and it was interesting how scarlet’s fight was a battle against downed skills. XD It’s a shame she didn’t get to explain herself though. Also, so much animation on the jory cutscene. ;o Need a big personal story xpan with cutscenes like these. ;x

Scarlet’s ship is a new PvE zone.

Servers don’t do Tequatl, guilds do. :O

Now you have pvp enabled and everyone wearing the Thoughtless Potion can attack you at any time.

I’m surprised they made death animations for baby Quaggans.
I wonder who was behind that and how he felt after he realize what he had done.

I’m actually extremely lazy, hate effort and often sleepy, so I barely do the event most days. I’m just good a getting 200-250+ bags a run.

LanfearShadowflame.3189:

Gah, doggie…. go farm for me. I’m not even up to 3k shards yet….

(Edit: yes i’m well aware these things are account bound…though I don’t have a clue why)

Meow Actually 21 cuz my guardian had a stack. :o

Revert it, plus remove the 4s reveal in Spvp. Another thing overdue for removal.

I don’t see the big deal with IR being a stunbreak. It not like the Warrior can’t just stun them again or before they set it down. Plus it didn’t remove stun anyways.

Konig Des Todes.2086:

1) The living story never ends. It’s only season 1 that’s ending. And chances are, it’s either this “Assault Knight” or more likely Scarlet.

2) Five times the size of Zhaitan? Do you even know how Zhaitan is? Five times his size is practically an entire zone. And you can bet that it’ll have overflow if it’s open world, irregardless simply due to server capacity.

Still waiting to battle Kralkatorrik; the flying country.

Walhalla.5473:

She saw Trahearne…. naked.

No wonder why she’s been driven to madness.

Lustful madness. Trahearne actually looks amazing naked.

Hopefully they add that Giant Beyblade Dragon recipe so I can make use of my 20+ stacks of shards.

Kaiyanwan.8521:

Quaggzilla, sleeping under Lion’s Arch will revenge poor Quaggan!

Nope. He died in his sleep from the Miasma.

Buff it to Watchknight Quaggan.

Sylvari, because it’s easier for my enemies to accept their death when they die to something beautiful.

Yes, you have a hidden MF rate that slowly raises when you stop playing consecutively. Like when SAB last released 3 of my friends who haven’t played in months got weapon drops in first run (one got one in very first chest opened) while I got none in 100+ runs.

Junkpile.7439:

My thoughts are that GW1 players seems to whine a lot. No wonder that game did need heros, because nobody probably wanna play with you.

The hero thing isn’t needed anymore although it’d be nice that npcs weren’t so helpless in story missions and die so easily, gaining a bad reputation when they’re supposed to be powerful, like Logan or Trahearne. GW1 players can’t be blamed for complaining about most things though~ when you play a game that has 2000 skills, a longer better storyline, better armor and better pvp modes you’d hope the sequel at least had half of that along with all the new stuff.

Something that can survive 10,000 clicks in a row for all the loot bags. So far my Death Adder has been surviving.

They usually leave NPCs like that up for a while longer before removing them. I don’t see why you wouldn’t just use them now though. I just bought tons of lvl up books for my alt, personally.

Probably not. Where’s the guess the patch notes thread?

I have a lot of unused ones as well~ they end up more as mementos than actually being used most of the time since I can only use’em once.

How did you survive? The bones in my right arm are completely shattered to pieces from opening all these event bags. So much pain and internal bleeding. I had to build a cast out of ductape.

10/10 will cry again.

GW2 hasn’t changed very much in over a year. Minimum lack luster updates at best.

If you count the LS – please read no further and it would be an exercise in futility.

Looking Objectively as both games as I have played both quite a bit (Wildstar and GW2) I will tell you this.

Wildstar is what I thought GW2 was going to end up being. I was well aware gw2 would never be gw1 but I had hope at least it would evolve into something great and a hybrid of the current mmorpg style. In didn’t end up that way.

Wildstar is heavily based on GW2 combat but it actually takes it one step further in terms of depth. Combat pve wise in Wildstar blows GW2 out of the water. There is no stack in a corner and win. Or zerg farm everything and win. There are actual tactics and strategy to encounters both solo and group.

One thing I have learned from GW2 is that without a Trinity games end up lacking strategy and combat depth and become nothing more the zerg dps something down. Wildstars trinity is an interesting twist on something many of us have come to love. It brings a new perspective on an old ideal.

If you are a solo player Wildstar has content for you.
If you are a raider Wildstar has content for you.
If you are crafter Wildstar has content for you.
If you are into player housing wildstar has content for you.
If you are into exploring Wildstar has content for you.
If you are a PvPer Wildstar has content for you.

The game is shipping with more content then we have GW2 a year later. Something has to be said about that.

Too bad the entire game looks ugly with goofy wacky cartoon graphics and brings nothing new to the Genre. ;/ Such an overhyped game.

The misconception is you need to bring something new to the genre.

GW2 tried and according to many people it didn’t work out so well.

Also, Have you played the game? The graphic style was chosen for 2 reasons. First off it fits perfectly to the atmosphere of the game. Secondly it cartoon style graphics age far better then what we have in GW2. Don’t get me wrong currently GW2 is a beautiful game. But, in time it will not age well – that’s the price of this graphic design.

The old saying, “If it isn’t broken don’t fix it” may still apply to this genre.

WoW is 10yrs old and still going strong. Matter of fact it still has a larger population then most other games combined including this one.

The game isn’t over hyped – I’ve played it a ton and in my opinion it’s what guild wars 2 should have been. The systems that game offers are many of the things Anet promised and never delivered on.

Wildstar has the best of both worlds. You can play it casual and enjoy it or play it hardcore and enjoy it.

It offers enough content for both sides of the spectrum.

None of that changes the fact that it’s ugly though. o.O WoW has awful art design as well and it just murders it from catching or keeping my interest. I’ve still followed it for a while but in the end it just looks like the same old MMO nonsense everything dishes out every year just with a bad paintjob this time.

Obsidian Sanctum isn’t there for a single Achievement. It’s there for pvp and for people who like Jumping Puzzles (and GvG nowadays). ;/ They get loot off people they kill while taking advantage of the environment. You can always run those same knockdown and etc builds.

Obsidian Sanctum is fine, and the pvp there is fun. Although I wouldn’t mind them adding a possible way to fight back in the arena area at end~ just go there early in morning or some other dead hour and the place is usually empty. Also~ use the stealth fountains.

Ugh, bad RNG strikes again.

Like hell. Norn is the precursor for Awesome. It’s amazing he got it with four trash Asura.

You can’t prove any of this.

Ugh, bad RNG strikes again.

Wonder if Chinese players playing GW2 will influence the chance of us getting our Cantha armor back.

Whys this thread limited to female? :O

Neoheart.2750:

ESO will have it’s own following and fanbase etc but it’s not that one that Anet have to worry about. Its Wildstar.

Well, I am extremely jelly that ESO’s version of WvW has 0 lag with more people and a bigger zone while GW2’s somehow turns into a lagfest at all times that stops everyone from using their skills. WTB more optimization now. o.o

I noticed this yesterday during Quaggan rescue guild mission when one of my guildies used it underwater. It was the most beautiful thing I ever Quagganed.

1. The much needed Armor changes: Skirtless/Coatless medium armor being added. GW1 Assassin style, and armor scaling being fixed so that it actually fits all races properly.
3. An Spvp mode like Fort Aspenwood added.
3. Condition mechanics changed allowing multiple people to run condi w/o worry about stack limits. o.O
4. Addition of customizable Guild Halls.
5. Anet finally adding the Crossbow-Shortbow Legendary skin.

Meow, I took this pic randomly after I finally finished my Ascended Pistol as well as getting the event horns~ thought it looked cool. The atmospheric colors of the death and destruction of LA are so pwetty.

PattyCakeChamp.5268:

Why do people insist on posting these topics still? Anet has already begun to address the issue with ascended/ vertical progression directly with a CDI. Regardless of what your views on it are, its not providing constructive criticism.

Addressed it by slightly raising the drop rate of weapons from nothing to nothing and adding the chance for armor to drop too which equally never happens?

webtoehobbit.4201:

How the heck am I supposed to get enough Dragonite Ore to get a Vision Crystal for the Spinal Blades backpiece when no one is doing world bosses cause they’re just doing LA? And before you tell me, “LA gives you Dragonite Ore” yeah, not much anymore cause all people do is farm Heirlooms, which doesn’t get us to 1,200…… So do I have to wait till Season 1 of the Living World is over to get the Dragonite cause people keep farming for that ugly halo?

If it wasn’t account bound, I’d send you so much bloodstone dust, dragonite ore and empyreal fragments that you’d hate me. I’m trying for the ascended backpiece, but other than that I don’t craft so it just sits there…mocking me.

Dragonite Ore Poop annoys me the most. I’ve made a lot of ascended stuff and I’m always forced to farm those for days while the other two I already have tons of, especially Bloodstone Dust. I have 82 Bloodstone Bricks and several stacks of Dust right now. .-.
I’ll probably never have a use for all those bricks.

More than my little Thief gets.

I would still enjoy having new skills and traits and a new legendary shortbow that doesn’t involve memes if they haven’t gotten 2nd thoughts of adding all these things mentioned there.

I want a combat quaggan tonic liek watchwork. c.c

I dont understand why they haven’t done this yet when they keep adding events that spam bags at you. Current event requires me to open 100-200 bags every run. 200-400 rapid clicks. It’s annoying. When Lettuce-head opens her 15+ stacks of bags that’ll be over 3000 mouse clicks and her hand is probably going to explode on video and she will die.

Kill Dragons/Do Temples on your Lv. 80. Then do them again on a Lv.80 alt. Then do them again on another Lv.80 alt. Then do them again on another Lv.80 alt. Then do them again on another Lv.80 alt. Then do them again on another Lv.80 alt. Then do them again on another Lv.80 alt. and so on. That’s what I been doing.

There was a bug with the event people were exploiting. Pretty sure it’s fixed now as I’ve not seen anything unusual there.

Welcome.

Dark Catalyst.1028:

You’ll learn soon enough.

This game has it’s problems here and there but it’s still the best mmo.

When I reformatted few months ago (without backing up anything from GW2) and logged into GW2, pretty much everything was exactly the same, including my tons of hotkey changes (which I was very happy about.) Don’t recall losing anything.

Actually I did save my screenshot folder to my usb harddrive but that’s about it. Backup those if you want to keep screenshots.

This thread seems fishy. Maybe he’s already a Sylvari, even at heart and just wants to be praised and told how awesome of a Treebro he is? :o

Interceptor.2653:

Depends on what you are doing. Anything from full glass (<2000 Armor) to WhatTheKitten Dire (3000+ Armor) is defensible.

Mostly you only see full glass on roamers, though. You simply cannot survive in medium-to-large group combat unless you have SOME Toughness to soak hits.

Meh, I run around with groups and zergs all the time in full zerker and it’s perfectly fine.
Just wear what you feel comphy in. Could always get both zerker and soldier to mix together to see how much HP/VIT you feel right in if you want to use any of it.

Ameepa.6793:

Spearguns would not work on land and tridents are indeed like staves.

Spear is a strange weapon. It is not great two handed weapon on land and in one hand it should always be paired with a shield like this. Which would be cool.

Meh, it’ll play kinda like this in WvW
