Armor Class and Class

Then ill ask why is hp backed on occupation and not race. Makes no sence that an Asura and Norn have same hp then. Really who do you expect to win in a bar fight while we are trying to make things more realistic. While all races where sending armies to fight Abbadon the norn where like ya 4 should be enough. 1 norn fought jormag in a one on one fight and punched out his tooth<-so want this fotm more then any other. Norn are so underpowered in the game the lore suggests they are should the game be completely unbalanced. Maybe spell caster training doesn’t give them mussels to move in heavy armor read books not train mussels is enough of reason to not need the change you suggest. Considering mobs do percent damage I think armor in the game is less then useless.

If you really want more toughness you can run a toughness build

My Bet: Dungeon Will Be Top Notch

Fafnir.5124

question is is the dungeon permanent or not. Anet’s monthly releases can be considered both adds good and bad content however it seams like a lot of wasted effort on there part to make the content temporary. Also “living story” would be towards there benefit to make permanent changes to the world to reflect impact of current events.

What i miss from this game

Your argument is flawed cause you said “I think”. Konig is using this to dispute your arguments. Lore discussion of in game facts to build theories more facts = greater support of augment. Konig is just saying you need to use better sources to base your conclusions on. Major misconception of lore is it is not a “what if scenarios” but a clear logical progression.

One quick question: If part of the definition of demon is that they are born from the mists if they then populate/or are able to populate in Tyria are they no longer considered demons? I know there was a Char breading them in GW1

They ARE available for players already. Tier 3 cultural Sylvari weapons found in the Grove for 63k karma each. Have fun.

no, i am talking about daggers that those glowing kraits hold from new patch

Wrong, these are new skins.

Why Krait glowing?

Posted by: Fafnir.5124

Fafnir.5124

I hope I’m the first: They are sylvary. New tree who’s pods took on form of krait with own world domination and superior complex. Sylvary are actually formless to form of humans cause tree was raised by a human. They would be accepted by other krait as their own race and would explain the alliance between krait and nightmare and weird tower construction.

The prophets return.

All 100% speculation and hope.

This is what scarlet saw but not necessarily a part of I hope.

Just asking they are under news so when they are up you can link to them from login screen doesn’t that count as ingame (not hard to find). Fragments of hearsay lore and roomers of the realm. Does it really need to be ingame through cinema or dialog what do you think news of gw2 should count as?

Maguuma Makes Gold League

If only we stayed in silver we could have gotten an easy win. I don’t know why we pushed to be in gold league looks like rewards between the leagues are the same. We have very few oceanics players so I honestly have no idea how we are going to handle the gold league at all.

There are definitely horses in Tyria, and the NPCs mention them both in GW1 and GW2.

They existed at the time of Orr, since there were undead horsemen in GW1. The imagery of knights on horseback persists even to the present day Tyria (check out the pictures of the festival in DR, for example), and two of the guild symbols it is available is that of unicorns.

Pictures depicting horses and horselike creatures from the wiki:
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/thumb/5/59/Carnival_01_concept_art.jpg/800px-Carnival_01_concept_art.jpg
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/0/09/Guild_emblem_48.png
http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/8/8b/Guild_emblem_49.png

There are also horses mentioned in Edge of Destiny, page 97:

In Edge of Destiny a herd of wild horses is seen through an asura gate when Logan, Rytlock, and Caithe flee from the Destroyer horde in the Dwarven ruins.

“Visions. Beautiful visions… a grassy plain where wild horses ran… a deep lagoon encircled by leaning palms…”

There’s horses in the concept art:

http://wiki.guildwars2.com/images/thumb/4/48/Human_architecture_05_concept_art.jpg/800px-Human_architecture_05_concept_art.jpg

This lore bit here also mentions skilled horsemen:

http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/An_Empire_Divided:_A_Selected_History_of_Mysterious_Cantha_for_the_Traveling_Scholar

And here’s a dude in original GW that mentions riding horses:

http://guildwars.wikia.com/wiki/Zumo_the_Beggar

Hey, hey you! I was riding my horse to the other side of town and I ran out of hey to feed him to get there. Spare a few gold so I can feed him and be on my way?

So there are definitely horses in the lore, all over the place.

The better question is, why don’t we SEE any horses in Tyria?

I want to point out ran is past tense so probly not anymore

The baseball card metaphor is dead on. You buy a bunch of packs hoping to get a rookie card and probably get a ton of doubles or cards you don’t want (tansformation tonics). If you don’t get a rookie card, you can go buy one directly for more money from the store. Down the road, if you go to buy that same rookie card it’s far more expensive but that doesn’t mean you get to demand that they re-issue the same card, in the same edition, just so you can get it for the cheaper price again.

Not everyone has the ability to get something when the only way to get it is random chance. It isn’t like these were special rewards for an event or contest. It was pure chance. If they were a reward for doing something I could accept them being unavailable, assuming the thing they were a reward for became unavailable.

Except this is completely inaccurate and doesn’t apply here since you can buy them on the TP and people have been doing so for the past year. The weapons have an established market value that people have been grinding to achieve based on the notion that they were a limited time offer.

SAB weapons were sell-able RNG weapons and they said they wouldn’t bring them back and effect value. The Jetpack was a limited-time, sell-able RNG item that they said they wouldn’t bring back and effect value/prestige. The halloween weapons are a sell-able RNG item and if they make is easily available (i.e. not 5 tickets) then they’re being completely misleading with their posts about protecting the prestige and value of limited time event items. They screw over anyone who just grinded 240 g to buy something based on statements regarding how they were going to treat such items.

Considering you got it because you were lucky and didn’t do any actual work for it everything you get no matter how low is profit.

Complete bullkitten. People have busted their kitten for the gold to buy expensive skins under the pretense that they would be treated like the SAB and jetpack sell-able exclusives.

what about jade weapons they completely screwed that one over rng wise they where a 250g item but then they ticketed them and they dropped to 25g. I also want to point out that winter day weapons came out as ticketed so we can probly expect Halloween weapons to fallow suit.

Scarlet is the BEST villain in GW2

Fafnir.5124

Zhaitan killed Tybalt Leftpaw. Checkmate.

And Forgal and Seiran. Well, his minions did it, but still more or less it was Zhaitan. Triple Checkmate. Scarlet hasn’t killed anyone important.

Everyone is forgetting that she killed 10-50k people in the pavilion by bombing the only escape rout. So she killed a kittenload of people. Npcs should matter and be greater motivation for players to decapitate her giggling head off.

Ghastly Grinning Shield Skin

Fafnir.5124

It better not come back… I don’t mind if they offer new weapons but in no way shape or form should the old ones come back… They should be limited edition to be owned by the priviledged few who were there for the original event and busted their tails to get it…

I really hope those weapons return just to spite this guy.

Anyway, I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to craft those weapons again. I remember reading something related to that.

Let me preface this by saying I earned all four of my Halloween skins during the Halloween event and I use all of mine. If they bring these skins back it will screw over EVERYONE who purchased these using in game gold from the TP. These have a “special” market value due to their limited time status. If they bring them back then they should refund anyone who spent the hundreds of gold to obtain them from the TP months after the event took place. Not to mention the fact that the market value of these will collapse over night screwing over anyone who was trying to sell them as well…

I want to note that you cant resell items you are using so they no longer have a market value and you shouldn’t care if they come back or not either way unless you want to sell them. Only people who collect them to sell them latter when they are a higher price should care. And for them any new release and market fluctuation Anet does is there prerogative. No user <-person expected to gain from the release should have any say in the decision would be equivalent of insider trading.

Fafnir.5124

Can someone answer me on why rytlocks holds onto this and doesnt give it to queens jenna so she can enter ascalon with it and put all those foefire ghosts to rest, its hurting my brain, is rytlock an absolute moron, not only that eir had broken the counter part Magdaer and sent it off to be reforged, so why not end it once and far all, rytlocks people are dieing and he’s sat there behind his pretty little desk holding onto his pretty sword that he doesnt even use, he doesnt deserve to be a leader in my eyes :C

Rylock hates Queen Jenna it is because of her that an elder dragon is still alive. Why should Rylock have to give up a legendary weapon to humans who he generally hates Logan being a very rare exception.

dungeon only has one flaw:Elitists

in Twilight Assault

Posted by: Fafnir.5124

Fafnir.5124

I find this title funny, this new path is actually anti-elitist, simply because majority of the path is unskippable, and have tons awkward mechanics to make zerker less efficient.

There is no “if you can’t run pass a room full of stun/knockdown/pull/cripple/root mobs, you are a noob” or “no zerker? gtfo”, people in a kicking frenzy are simply impatient.

Problem is everyone starts as a noob with new content. If people are like this because after only 1 day after release it is kinda stupid. I think it would be better if they remove lfg so people don’t think their squad is expendable or kick squad out if you kick someone whole issue of selling dugions stems from people put effort in but get nothing out. Better yet fine of 50silver required to kick some one so it costs u something.

So I found a nice blue ocean under maul with want looks like new fotm areas. This is 100% speculation but all fotm levels are all in the same area. These are possibly new area to us by new years bein developed. Uploaded screens after dying as if fell which caused me not to go to the respawn but fall though the mist seeing everything below.

But what is below the jade sea a blue ocean.

Ya people disappear in middle of the night and never seen from again they are really invited.

Since this new content is focused on T.A. I hope that given all the complaints and the frustration F/U boss caused this new release will include a fix to this path’s boss. At very least a full reset if an attempt fails, making possible a fresh retry.

to note it doesn’t reset unless u squad wipe I’m pretty sure if u see squad wiping u can run away and regroup and go again.

Fafnir.5124

cant wait till we actualy get good infusions. probly need teir 7 lodestones for it. Which would justify the lowering in lodedstone prices. Also would be great to have ascended sigils finally. A true justification for having and acquiring ascended weapons. What I don’t like is that they say they want to make a high level market for 500 Crafting but don’t let u sell accented weapons. Also to note I hope this doesn’t fallow through with potions and food.

This patch is going to be small?

in Twilight Assault

Posted by: Fafnir.5124

Fafnir.5124

For someone who doesn’t do dungeons, the next patch doesn’t exist.
For someone who’ll won’t be in the game for the next month, this patch will also not exist, since it will most likely removed in a month…

I would rather have them re-work all the existing dungeons to:

  • Fix exploits.
  • Fix skips.
  • Punish sellers.
  • Encourage non DPS stat-combination diversity.
  • Enhance rewards.
  • Give different skins, and Graphics to the different paths to make them more diverse.
  • Make them more fun.

you do know the new dugion path is perm content and new dugion<-which is what people been asking most for from living story. 2nd WvW season starts October 1st also so if you don’t do dugions there is a lot of new stuff happening right now so don’t complain about free patchs please other then content and lack of lore which we don’t know yet one way or the other how good/bad it is. So stop speculating

And as far as size it is about same as aitherblade dugion and most other patches. If you would believe what others say this month has 3 updates if effort is spaced out between them it should be understandable. +Mad king return should have most effort put for it.

Call me idiot but I think Mossman is way more difficult than Legendary Imbued Grawl Shaman.
You can kill this Grawl relative easy with enough reflects or when you go range.. o/c you can kite around Mossman too but I cant see his attacks as well <.<

If u look on mini map u can see his movements when stealthed on who he is going to oneshot. This might be a glitch but it certainly helps at 40+

Makes me laugh when i see this. 200 people dps him like crazy cant take off 10% of his hp in 15mins. I do at lease 3 trys a day with no luck and yes it is very exasperating event if wall never goes up you still cant get him into phase two.

I bet only people who say they enjoyed it got a teq mini out of him or a weapon.

What i don’t like about teq is his rewards scale. The hardest is to get him to the first 75% in my experience strait from dps. the fallowing 25% are relatively easy with the mega laser assistance.

Fractals took WAY too long

Posted by: Fafnir.5124

Fafnir.5124

I vote for new fotm sets depending on level you do you wanted to add new fotm and that could be a new way to introduce them and would prevent the over scaling of the previous ones. Also allows you to retailor difficulty for rewards.

maybe they could make dredge count as two fractals due to its length?
