My masterwork champ box from CM game me better loot than the 7 exotic ones put together. All because it contained 10 Linen.
Yep. Broken.
Hopefully a decent place to farm this will be found soon, and bots will appear in force to regulate the price to a more reasonable standard.
the answer to all problems: wildstar
This is true. But NCSoft publish that too. Is this just their way of funneling their “hardcore” players between their games?
Regardless, that’s looking like the answer.
Wait, if you interrupt a gamechanging skill like Battle Standard it only goes into 4 second cooldown? Where’s the punishment/reward? Seriously?
4 seconds is plenty time to put a stomp on someone.
There will always be UP professions, it’s the turn of the Ele.
Just remember it used to be Warriors, and look at them now.
Okay, it’s Ele’s turn. Except that it’s our turn for 9 months now.
Can you give someone else the turn for the highest DPS profession then? You’ve had that for months too.
If my post really bothered you so much, I can only imagine how tormenting it must be for you to have to read anything that’s repeated.
Yeah, it’s pretty horrible. The only things I like reading repeated is stories of bearbows being bearbows.
We know. We know. WE KNOW.
It’s been posted in this forum, the BLTC forum and the LS forum several times. Over and over and OVER.
Try scrolling and stop being ignorant before posting absolutely redundant repeat threads.

Trying to appease speed runners
You’re in the dungeon forums bro. The abandoned wasteland where only the hardcore PvErs remain.
All of us here would LOVE if they appeased to speed runners, rather than ignoring us with their pathetic temp content.
is ascended even worth it?!
Yes, it’s a stat upgrade, not a side-grade. It is worth it no matter what, even if it is 100% of your money. There is no way it is not worth it.
To those who would say differently, I’d like to hear them explain how spending the same money on a cosmetic or a side-grade, so 0% better than what they have now, is more “worth it” than a straight up BETTER item.
“Massively Multiplayer Online”
I wouldn’t be surprised to see the F&F dye set return tomorrow.
We don’t know until it shows up in the store.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see the F&F dye set return tomorrow. I’ll be ready for when it roll overs to quickly offload my dyes.
The other 2 I guess to be Fine Transmutation Stones (these always seem to be on sale whenever there is one) and maybe Glory Boosters (because of the change to the PvP daily and WvW boosters being on today …)
Warrior is much easier in dungeons. You don’t need to change weapons often.
Huh? My Warrior is changing weapons all the time. That’s why the meta has the Fast Hands trait. If you mean actually altering sets, swaps to warhorn for weakness in Fractals/Swiftness between groups, Sword for block or Shield for difficult trash runs. Whereas a thief has swaps between S/P and D/D dependant on trash or boss … and that’s about it.
Sure Warrior is easier, but not because of that. It’s easier because of higher HP, higher armor, and arguably more dodges, all while having an easier highest-DPS to achieve so your focus can be on avoidance.
We all know 43 is horrendous levels of broken.
My question is, which dungeons do you use a stacking sigil in? The ones I usually run there’s not enough mobs that get killed early on to warrant losing the 10% damage buff from a Sigil of Night
Everything other than SE 1 and COF 1. Having Axe and offhand both as a stacking weapon means you get 2 stacks per kill, so even quickest dungeons should be stacked in.
If you PUG, stacking is significantly less effective as you may go down even at your best play if the group isn’t optimized.
Level 40 is really just a gear-check to make sure you have enough AR, it’s not tough. If you’re struggling there, you won’t have enough AR for anything higher than that, so give into the vertical progression system of building up AR or crafting ascended for the +5s.
To answer OP’s question. I’d kick you for those Soldier runes. If you had Scholar runes, Full zerker trinkets and weapons. With 3 zerker armor and 3 knight armor. I’d let you stay, but I would assume you aren’t very good and would keep a close eye on you.(I’m very tough on other guards, since I love the class so much).
^ This guy is trying too hard to be an elitist.
2) THEY NEVER SEE IT COMING
Except for the big sign by your boons that shows you have Mantra of Distraction prepared.
It could happen, it’s been said that devs are going to implement more ways to get ascended.
But this is AN, so thats a 2015+ feature.
It is permanent, as unlike the temporary version, when used there is no time remaining tooltip.
This is a fantastic convenience item, and nothing short of that. One of the best purchases added to the gem store and almost impossible to fault. It’s even a teleport. Goodbye Lion’s Arch.
God forbid the light, cloth armor takes more cloth to make than the heavy, plated armor aswell as the medium, leather stuff. A little logic gets you a long way.
Damask is what it costs as it’s the new kid on the block.
Please note that this is brief outline of the work of Nike from DnT guild. This is just aimed to put it more into a public eye. ALL credit goes to him for his efforts, as NONE of this is my own work. Any request to remove this thread by him will be acknowledged. His original thread, along with explanations and a video, on GW2Guru can be found HERE.
Major Changes
These changes are ~1% better than if the old build was upgraded to ascended armor, which was full Berserker with Perception stacks.
The Build
No change since the previous update. The build to run is still 30/25/0/0/15.
Traits to pick up are V, IX and XI in Strength, V and X in Arms (change Forceful Greatsword to Deep Strike with Elementalist might stacking) and VI in Discipline.
Weapons
Armor
The change to Assassin will make you over crit-capped in AC and CM. If these are dungeons you run, and barely anything else, Berserker would be better.
Consumables
I’ll try my best to answer any questions.

The point of Eternity is that it swaps dependant on time. That won’t change, and you know this.
This is just an ego stroke thread.
It’s both possible. But just because some rushers finish their set. Dont’ mean there isn’t a bunch of non rusher just getting started. Or people have alts.
But prices of … well pretty much everything required … is going up. I can’t see many people that were not interested at release being interested now. Not to mention, more silk is probably being salvaged now it’s worth something.
Simple question, I’d have thought the price would have start to decline now “rushers” are finished with their armor. But it’s still going up and up, with no sign of stopping.
This baffles me, are some barons buying lots up to dump at a later time?
kitten game has last you 1 year.
Yeah, you can’t really complain if you’ve exhausted the game. Sure the new content is bad, but you’ve inevitably had a bunch of fun from the game as a whole.
Maybe its time to move on and come back in a few months – the beauty of B2P.
Before the mental diarrhea above spreads any further, regarding parties and “who to party with”, the answer is, as usual, simple:
- The most efficient way to PvE in this game is full berserker. Anything else is inferior performance wise. This is not an opinion, this is a demonstrable fact.
- That doesn’t mean that this is the way you want to play the game. You’re free to play how you like.
- PvE in this game is easy enough that you don’t need to “min-max” to simply complete it.
- The secret is to party with people like you. People that want to play the game the way you do. A proper party description, or a quick chat after you join a party, really helps. If you want a full zerker optimal party, put that in the description. Ask for gear checks. Kick people that don’t meet standards. If you want a chill party put that in the description. Kick people that start stressing and kittening about your performance.
If you join a party with a clear set of standards and goals you don’t match you’re either trolling or a kittening idiot.
It’s a game. Play however you like. Just don’t try to force people to play your way.
This is really simple.
This needs stickying on every single kitten forum filter.
That does look fun, I might have to try this minus shout heals of course.
What’s wrong with people wanting to run Cleric’s or Sentinel’s? Can they not “F*** s*** up” with said gear?
Short answer: no.
Long answer: noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
I lol’d.
They share an ICD, so until this ICD has completed, it will not have a chance to happen.
Because they can still profit off lazy people. It’s a win-win for everybody this way. People who only want 1 set can now transfer to different characters, but those who are too lazy still have the option of buying more sets, turning over a profit for NCSoft.
This little, selfish convenience for you could make a massive difference in turnover to a company relying on it’s gem store sale for profits.
Few sets I like:
As for dyes, Pyre or Charred are fantastic and I love ’em. Look at that gold, just look at it!
Mixing and matching is so tough in the game, due to armors all dying differently along with different textures.

Short answer: no.
People don’t take Rangers you say?
Anet seems to love introducing more materials for us to gather.
Gather? If that means lock behind a time gate, you hit the nail on the head.
Skale Venom is wonderful. Weakness2gud. I wonder whatever happened to my offhand Mace….
Firstly, you are fooling yourself if you think the bonus toughness on 3 Knights pieces are making any difference to your survival, especially as you’re level 49. Sucks that you got those pieces in ascended, but that’s why top players released early-meta updates featuring ascended.
15/15/0/20/10 sounds like a Hammer build to me, which isn’t really close to optimal in a regular dungeon, Hammer is more fractal-based. You probably need a Sword/X and GS and retrait as you switch between them and Fractals to qualify for a “speedrun” group.
And likely yes, Soldier runes will likely get you kicked as they are horrible. Your shouts shouldn’t be used for condition removal, Retreat should be saved for Aegis, and SYG saved for the Stability.
Dump the Soldier runes and put your 10 points into the bottom line, picking up the trait that allows Virtue of Resolve to cleanse 3 conditions. This, along with Purging Flames, is more than enough condition removal.
I can understand you not wanting to replace your 3 Ascended Knights pieces, but if you are getting regularly kicked, just buy 3 Exotic Zerker pieces and be done with it.
points to time
Congrats! But I don’t think we envy a server that tanks because they’re too scared for gold league
I hope you enjoyed spending your new years inside~
More and more people have been expecting free handouts recently.
If you want the reward, put in the effort. Don’t expect to /dance outside LA bank and get your monthly.
Monthly/Dailies have become a LOT more varied than since launch – where they used to be static objectives every day and month, as well as needing to complete them all.
No, because then you’d just have more PUG Guardians stacking their Clerics gear, or more Warriors slamming Sentinel gear in their slots to take the most damage “imba tank” spot.
Dungeon’s aren’t meant to be competitive, that’s what PvP is for. I don’t want to “1-up” my friends, I want to play with them to “f*** s*** up”
Bunker isn’t a role in PvE. Nor is tank. The roles are:
- Support (THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY HEALING!)
- Damage (THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY DIRECT DAMAGE!)
- Control (THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY CC!)
Everyone does a little bit of each, but specializes in at least one. For example, my engineer is primarily damage, but I also have rifle for control and Healing Turret + Toss Elixir R for support.
I could switch it up and go a bit more support and bring Elixir Gun + some healing power.
I could also REALLY bring out the control parts of my build and run flamethrower + other CCs.
It just depends on what my team needs for this particular battle. If my team sucks, I’m going more support. If they don’t, more DPS. If the situation calls for CC, I’ll go more control.
I can do this on a thief as well. Thief does control via perma blind. Thief does damage by being a thief. Thief does support via venoms, stealthing allies and blast finishers with short bow.
Name a class. I’ll tell ya how you can do all three.
Also, Warriors can reflect projectiles. It’s the reflect on block trait.
tl;dr Everyone dips into all three roles, just you dip into one more than the others.
You really have no clue about effective playing do you? Sorry to inform you but 30/30/30/30/30 doesn’t exist, so Thieves can’t swap from a venom build, to a control build, to a DPS build on the fly. Nor can a Warrior go from 1337imba420blazeit tank to lol2gud4u 4w350m3 shout h34lz.

That just made you sound incredibly entitled and spoiled.
You have so much choice in the monthly.
There are dozens of jumping puzzles to choose from, several dungeons to choose from, hundreds of champions you have the option of killing amongst hundreds of events.
So the monthly should be changed because “I want to do all the monthly achievements but I don’t like to do X, remove it now so people don’t get more APs than me” deal?
But the best part is this bit.
wheres the veteran slayer and stuff again kind of thing
You ask for more variety, but whine questioning for more of the same. LOL.
Play the way you enjoy!
How selfish, playing a sub-optimal build is wasting the 4 other people in your group’s time.
“Guild” missions.
“Guild” wars.
But you don’t want to be in a Guild.
To be more helpful, there are plenty of guilds who advertise their missions in LA map chat on reset days. Grab an invite and leave once you’re done. What’s the problem?
I like how you spout nonsense with no source.
Also I lol’d at expecting a fix in 3 days.
Your own fault for not understanding transmutations.
Dungeons
Champions
Skillpoints
Daily Completer
Events.
Tell me again how you need to do “not PvE” for your Monthly.
Thread #51876 regarding the matter and #51875 without screenshots.
2/10. Would read again.
Conditions causing revealed would make stealth the most useless mechanic in the game. Even power builds usually have traits that cause bleeding on crit – how would stealth be even remotely useful?
The only issue with stealth is that it’s treated more as an offensive mechanic, rather than defensive. Characters shouldn’t have their most damage dealing skills when they can’t be seen – Look at a Warrior’s Killshot, highly telegraphed for massive damage. Very fair. A Thieves backstab, invisible and massive damage. Not fair at all.
