Guild Wars 2

norn guardian? you are elite-less mate, get used to it.

Seriously? Never heard any offensive comments towards guardians. In fact I’ve heard thanks to a couple of guardians for smooth dungeon runs since they heal a lot and saved a lot of time for us. I think this is your personal idea instead of communities.

Try this; have a guardian with full cleric armor and a mace. Run a dungeon with him. Then run the same dungeon after you replace the guardian or cleric armor and mace on him. I bet you’ll see the difference.

SamTheGuardian.2938:

800 GEMS ($10 USD) 1600 GEMS ($20 USD)? What do you think is a fair monthly price to rent an Arena for your team?

I missed the point if these private sPVP servers will be limited for a short time or not. If it is limited for a short time lets say 4h, I think 1 gold is more than enough. I would never pay 800 gems for a short term private sPVP server. I pay 600 gems for a bank space upgrade which is permanent and imho is valuable than a 4h private server. Otherwise I think 2000 gems is a good investment for a permanent private server for a group of players (16 in this case).

Remember that it works for all Regeneration boons you create, too. I’m currently stacking healing power and boon duration, and it’s working out really well.

I’ve full set of Clerics Armor along with Cleric Mace but all without any runes. As far as I can see from a few exp dungeon runs, I can really keep up the party, giving boons and healing them. At most , 3 deaths (party members) occur in a complete exp run. But when I got the aggro things change. I almost always got killed with 2 hits from any boss. I can handle trash mobs but I can’t stand when I am really needed, with the boss fights.

That being said, I was planning to get soldier runes and jewelry for a few Vit/Tough. Do you think it will help me? Did you have any problems staying alive before the runes?

I’ve been using 5 pieces of exotic and 1 piece of rare cleric armor for 2 days. I was using random rare/exotic pow/tgh/vit armor before that. No gems/sigils are placed yet but I’m pretty dissapointed with the set so far.

I run Arah story mode with cleric armor, died only once and nobody else died. But before cleric armor, several deaths would occur. So I guess either I was supporting well or the group was good.

But in WvW I was wasted. Before cleric armor I could kill about 3/5 1on1 matches without any difficulty. With cleric armor I cannot even deplete half of my enemy’s health.

Also before cleric I could run away about 15 sec from a small group of enemies without dying, now I just die. But this may be because the groups I encountered with cleric armor was pretty strong. I need to test this a little bit more.

So far, I see that cleric is a good option for support guardians running dungeons but not good in WvW. And imho the trade off is not worth it. My second set of armor will absolutely be pow/tgh/vit.

Just because of this I could not get one POI yesterday. On my particular instance, the opposing server was holding both the castle and the tower and we could not siege any of them. Off all the map, this one was just impossible to breach. We could run all around the map, siege everywhere but this. It was frustrating.

Just to make sure if I got it right. So if we run dungeons with this DR system in mind and loop all 8 dungeons in order, when we can afford the armor set we wanted form a dungeon with tokens, we in fact can afford ALL the 8 dungeon armor sets since we have ALL the dungeons’ tokens around the same amount? How does this help us? It will take 7 times more than before to get a set of armor. And when I do I get 7 more account bound armor sets that I won’t probably use and cannot sell. So the time I spend for that 7 armor sets are just…. puff…
