Guild Wars 2

I’d love a free portal to the Accountancy Waypoint. It’s way better than Trader’s Forum but usually twice as expensive.

My best guess is Logan will run off at the worst possible moment.

“Where is the meat? The festival can’t continue without the next shipment from Butcher’s Block! The captain of the Seraph said he’d oversee its transport personally!”

*pan to an abandoned Seraph sword with a pile of bones scattered around it and a trail of meat running off somewhere"

Just sayin’.

Completing a Monthly (PvE or PvP) counts towards the achievements “Kiel Every Day” and “Gnash All The Blades”

The first bag contains three pieces of random loot, the second contains five, and so on. So yes, the more you kill the more you get.

“The lightning aspect’s 1 will sometimes randomly do 10 damage, instead of 5 like it normally does”

It’s an autoattack chain, consisting of 3 attacks.

1. 5 damage, melee range
2. 5 damage, leap to your target
3. 10 damage, leap to your target.

I seriously LOVE Aspect Arena. What I don’t love is how players are playing for achievements instead of playing to win. Or rather, how playing for achievements and playing to win are different from each other.

Wukunlin.8461:

even back when they were indestructible they don’t do enough to justify the slots they occupy

Yeah, the nerf that gave them a health pool cam completely unexpected to pve’ers. I didn’t even see them around in pvp much!

I’ve had someone pull that on me for bringing a hammer. I laughed in his face.

A random skin can drop from Captain Trials. Or is it a ticket? I haven’t seen anyone get one yet.

You forget we, as players, don’t want peace. It would make for a pretty boring game.

People aren’t playing it, they’re achievement hunting. This means camping the other team’s spawn in order to kill carriers. Which is impossible btw because Wind is bugged.

I often crit for 3k with my berserker/greatsword, and that’s without stacking might and vulnerability. So yes, it’s definitely possible.

I doubt most players would mind. Kiel has been dubbed Kormir 3.0 in my server and Evon hardly has lore that would cause people to mourn his death.

Solo’d with a stealth thief. Plunderers dropped in two backstabs, mostly. Use stealth to break aggro from the veterans.

That’s one issue.

The other is that crystalbearers are invulnerable 80% of the time by esc-canceling mistform when it runs out. I’ve played over 15 games and have not yet killed a single crystalbearer because they either fall of the map or can’t be hit.

tpvp is fine. Hotjoin is just a gloryfarm zergfest; people cap points in groups of 5 so no one misses the 20 point glory reward.

That is what’s wrong with spvp.

Why 30 points in Radiance if you’re not using Right-Hand Strength?

Charak.9761:

Think everyone’s gonna copy this look soon…

Probably. It isn’t exactly original and Celestial dyes have been skyrocketing since the availability of Radiant Vambraces.

Here’s my data.

I ran 61 races, most of which I won. I got the Lightning Catcher Skin the first race of a session, in which I placed fifth because I started about halfway.

The 61th race also was the first race of a session, in which I placed sixth. The chest contained the Wind Catcher Skin I was looking for.

It probably is coincidence, though.

Meh. I don’t like them because they’re mostly just particle effects on floating rocks, but I will use them anyway just to get rid of those CoF weapons.

Thanks, Mogrika! Indeed, I recently disabled autoattack. Reenabling it should fix it.

I’ll relog and try again.

I noticed that since the latest patch I cannot interrupt my own autoattacks with other skills anymore, instead they queue up for after the autoattack. This is incredibly annoying as elementalist autoattacks are so subpar compared to their other skills, and also take a while to fire.

I think that this applies to all weapon sets, but especially the Fiery Greatsword stands out since its autoattack is in fact four sword swings.

Please fix!

Isn’t Cantha completely closed off by the Ministry? No one can get in or out.

Would be a bit sad if the blockade can be ignored just by having a ship that flies.

I’ve been called selfish for crossing the finish line. Made me do a double take, really.

0/30/0/10/30 is a Scepter/Dagger burst build that excels at dropping single targets quickly and stacking 25 might for the entire party. Revolves around Fresh Air to get Lightning Bolt every 2 second without staying in one attunement.

Sometimes the maps are entirely devoid of boxes, yes. I assumed it was because other players opened them and raged a bit about how they should be instanced, but it’s very much possible that it’s a bug.

In Mario Kart the best items are gained by the players in last. In this game the best items are, in order:

1. Light Travel
2. Fake Item Box
3. Aspect Master
4. Grounded.
5. The three utilities.

First place usually gets Grounded, so other players have no chance of hurting them with the three utilities. In addition, those not in the lead have to deal with fake boxes, which even if they’re obvious, still take a long time to swerve around.

Get first place once, never lose it.

Of course, Evon should win. Kiel is all like “omg, something’s happening. Better deputize the PC while I open doors and get oneshot”

Don’t worry, rewards are the same no matter in what place you finish.

I support Evon because Kiel is a boring character.

Most of the ganking takes place at the spawn, though. Or at the Arena, because it’s nigh impossible to do the dark room without a torch or skills.

I always Banish my people off the edge of the final platform, but I do let them get the chest.

The consensus on the Elementalist forums is that Arenanet deliberately wants them to be outclassed by everything.

I’m at full Zerker, though I use Soldier runes. I didn’t have any trouble with the mobs.
For the Mai fight I switch to Cleric with a staff as to outheal the static field damage so we can facetank her.

Only in PvP. They dominate in duels, specifically, so you’re a pretty decent far point assaulter.

I use the Sword and Hammer with Stand Your Ground and Runes of the Ogre. Since most weapons cleave, melee attackers will take triple the retaliation damage. In addition you have great control with both the spirit and normal hammer.

Personally, I want things that look handcrafted and artistic. I really dislike weapons that are a combination of “undentifiable lump” + “expensive to craft” + “particle effects”. Volcanus and Mjolnir are the primary offenders.

Flying would be amazing. They already showed that they can do z-axis movement in Underwater combat.

Still, we’d need new weapons/weapon skills to accommodate to it. I somehow doubt they’re going to implement something that large.

Let me guess: You’re on Europe and tried to join NA groups.

Golems cannot pull through Frizz. If you see one wind up for a pull, make sure there’s either crates or Frizz between you. Also, don’t take this for an excuse to spend the entire fight cowering behind boxes.

If it’s Europe-based, I’m in.

I use a focus elementalist with Swirling Winds and Magnetic Surge so I have two projectile blockers on demand.

Could be a mistake, since you are able to acquire Faster than Light after a wipe, even if you have been hit by lasers.

ESKan.6782:

Golems will only pull you if they are overcharged (hit by the laser), and prioritize people standing on crates. Pop stability as soon as you see a golem raise its arm towards you.

I run a mesmer and afaik the only stability I have comes from a mantra (ugh). What class were you using? Seems like Warriors would have a nice advantage here.

I got the achievement on my Elementalist. Used Mistform and Armor of Earth to avoid being pulled. I also mistformed through a laser the time I got the achievement.

Golems will only pull you if they are overcharged (hit by the laser), and prioritize people standing on crates. Pop stability as soon as you see a golem raise its arm towards you.

Back up for a moment here. You’re running the squishiest profession with the squishiest stats, and you complain about things killing you?

I believe they are unblockable. My Shield 5 did not stop them.

I can confirm this.

New bug: When I cast Dragon’s Tooth, all ground-targeted AoE spells will fail as long as the dragon tooth is in the air. Tested with Flamewall and Shatterstone so far.
