I think the problem is real estate. If a lot of mobs patrol (there are already patrolling mobs) given the density of mobs , players will be attacked left and right. By the time you finish off the first mob you might aggro 2 more and when you finish those the first one respawned and repeat until you are dead. Just imagine the old orr but worse.
Another way to do this is to fight till the entrance then run all the way in. Click the skillpoint but don’t commune. It won’t be long before you are downed. Start communing. You should be able to get the skillpoint but will die after that. If you find you can’t fight thru, you can try this method.
Small guild can work as mercenaries i guess. Collaborate with some big guilds. Whenever they go on a guild mission, help them out. Assisting will give reward as well.
BL chest already had a chance of getting a key back. The tp and everyone bank still have a load of useless locked BL chest.
The problem is no matter how many options they include, there will always be someone who wants to give a different answer. It true that some of the options are pretty lame. One that i recall is from the skritt IQ test. The PC says mind reading is not real and berate the skritt. But they are living in a high magic world with dimension travelling, dead raising from the grave and whatnot….
Actually it still depends on the reward. If it is deemed useless or too much trouble for the gain, players may not actively help out yet still contributing to difficulty scaling. Maybe they will just kill 1 or 2 mob or something then go do their own stuff. This can already be seen from some of the DE which hardly anyone wants to do.
I am still open to the possibilty that anet will add more giants in the future. Preferably non event spawns.
Ask someone to destroy the turret then port to pvp. Then from there to LA.
Are you talking about today or yesterday?
I think Anet have forgotten that this thing existed.
skynet and anet….
Also transfer cost is for transferring characters. If you rather save money and willing to delete all your characters, transferring is free. I suppose it is possible to liquidate or put all your assets into the bank since bank is account based and not character based.
If you really really cannot endure another jump then i have to parrot the suggestion of hiring a mesmer to do it for you.
But if you want to give it another try, i would suggest you identify the problem. The few difficulties in this jump is
1)Not knowing where it start. Since you already started , that is not the problem.
2)Can’t clear the mob that spawn. Easiest is to come back when you are stronger.
3)Don’t know the correct route. The cause of many failed jumps is not knowing where to jump from and jump to. Easiest is to watch a youtube video .
4)Dying from falling. Change into the trait the 1/2 falling damage.
5)Can’t clear the jumps. Identify the jumps that you are not good at. Use your speed buff. All class has some form of swiftness. Some better than others but all have it.
It used to be not too bad. I could still get useful stuff from it (among the crap stuff) like BL chest and fine transmutation stone. But now it gives more crap stuff like boosters and coins.
SoS is probably going to drop down to tier 2. JQ is the current powerhouse now.
What? Fine from map completion? I have 2 char at 100% 5 char at 87% and 1 at 50+% and i have never gotten any from it. I have accumulated more than 2 stacks of basics at this point. Dailies have also never given me any. The only fines i have gotten are from BL chests. But even those no longer give me any after they change the BL chest contents to more boosters and coins.
Race for me Asura is best since for some reason i am able to gauge jump distance best when using. Charr is worst for me for the same reason that i am least able to judge where it will land.
Class for me Mesmer is best since i am not really a good jumper and having a safety net really helps. Ranger is worst here not because it is bad but that the other classes are better but the difference is quite insignificant.
Since this is a huge issue, i am pretty sure they will fix it eventually. Atm, they probably had no idea how it happened or how to fix it and therefore had no idea when it will be fixed. Also, while the issue is big the consequences atm is not so just carry on as per normal while they work on it.
Just find the right mob and dodging is super easy. Moas, drakes , earth elementals basically those mobs with a attack that last a few seconds. Not much timing needed.. Just dodge into and out of the aoe after it uses the attack.
Same. I was using my engineer when i re-completed my staff master.
What i find funny about this whole incident is how their “no updates” update still manages to screw stuff up.
Weapon master is also affected
The reason low level armor is so cheap is because hardly anyone buys them. You can simply wear what you find as drops and still fair well. Even if you don’t, not repairing your armor doesn’t really pose too much problems either.
Catch the frozen keg in wayfarer foothills.
Did the pale tree perhaps think that ronan and ventari were bros?
The monthly could be reduced to kill 1 rabbit and i bet there will still be people complainting.
I am not interested in walking. Can i get my laurels by just clicking the mouse.
Thanks for pointing out Andrew. Yet he is a good example of what I mean. Last night I was running outside divinities reach just exploring when I noticed a female human NPC asking me if I saw her grandchild or something like that. But this female NPC had a face and body that looked like she was 18 years old. I’m thinking how could this be a grandma?
Thats easy. The npc just have to spend some gold to get gems and buy the makeover kit from the BLTC.
U only need 7 fractal for the monthly. You can’t blame anyone for procrastinating and then miscalculate the time.
It has been mentioned many times that laurels wouldn’t be rewarded for Jan. So there is no reason to wait.
The OP is probably the minority here who dislike this monthly.
I just thought of 1 more point why Charr will win. Who is the richest person in all of known Tyria? The Charr that own the BLTC of course.
I always wondered why Rytlock is so angry. It all makes sense now! Thats why Eir wanted to get a matching sword for Logan so Rytlock will feel loved again. Alas, homosexuality may be acceptable in Tyria but i am not sure if bestiality is.
Anyway, since Sylvari cannot reproduce, why do they even have male and female?
We don’t know if it has poles, but it does have North, South, East and West directions as well as an arctic sea to the north (thus an arctic area, implying a northern pole).
Actually the term Arctic comes from the Greek Arktos meaning “bear” or “near the bear”. So its really implying that there are bears up there =P
But they do seem to have stuck to the general Northern Hemisphere stereotype that most games/books use; with it being colder/darker in the North.
They must mean the kodan. Because tyria polar bears live on mountains.
But isn’t the loot from fotm mainly from chests?
I hope next time when polymock is up, mini pets can be used.
Ascended amulet. Then after that maybe the minis.
1 month of doing nothing extra from what i was already doing seems fine to me. (I expected 6 months)
If you are impatient then do fotm for the rings.
Why would pvp players need laurels?
The new dailies are not much harder just different. However, i wouldn’t deny it actually encouraged some ridiculous actions. Like the unnecessary prolonging of a fight to get some dodges in. Letting npc and players die so as to rezz them. Nevertheless, we will soon get use to it in no time at all.
Because the npc couldn’t find a party to do the dungeon.
Ya, where is my mf/ boon duration / crit dmg gear.
Its easy to get gold in fotm as well.
Come every update and there will be a ton of complaints cluttering the general discussion sub forum. It will be good to seperate them for easier access to more interesting discussion.
Btw, i think tickets related stuff should be seperated from the dev sub forum as well.
Those who wanted the flying broom would have already bought the witch costume. Those who bought the witch costume wouldn’t buy the flying broom.
Effectively it means not many people bought both to know the difference. Even less read the forum. And even less will bother to reply.
Totally expected.
You know that the low level mob normally already die from a few hits by a non leveled down character right?
How do they beat you in points within a single day? You only have 20 points in achievement?
Not everybody get to do the daily
Its so that they have a excuse to reduce drop rates. Bots are unlikely to get the mf infusion. Instead of phasing out mf they added more instead.
You are expected to let your children inherit your job.
