Guild Wars 2

projectcedric.6951:

Compared to the corresponding requirements in other Legendaries:…

Bolt – 250 Bolts of Gossamer

And Bolt’s Lodestone’s are like … 5x more expensive than Juggernaut’s.

Your point?

projectcedric.6951:

Twilight – 250 Cured Hardened Leather Squares

And Dusk is also … what, 240g more than Colossus? You really can’t complain about some parts being unfair for your desired Legendary when other parts of yours are more beneficial.

Wahh wahh, your Sigil cost you 2.5s or so while Predator’s costs 2.5g which is 100x more! I’m going to complain because this is downright unfair.

Don’t like what you need, don’t craft it. Simple as.

Vengeance is fine, as you said it’s both UP and OP at the same time. Situational is fine.

Every profession’s #2 needs to be able to prevent stomping from multiple foes. Countered by Stability is fine, I’m not asking for something that straight up interrupts anything (a la Vapor Form)

Gandarel.5091:

I hope ArenaNet will start to make logical decisions at some point after they left behind their ‘GW1 didn’t exist and we ignore every loyal veteran’ mentality,

You got up to 500 achievement points and a bunch of exclusive weapons, armor and titles.

Yeah, you guys sure as hell aren’t rewarded for your past loyalty to the series.

No proof, but it’s definitely not beyond so many players out there to do this.

Denying it happens is totally ignorant, purely because you’re a person who has the luxury of 5-friend teams every run.

People need to wisen up and avoid any suspicious groups. Regularly look at players who are selling Arah slots on the LFG and write their usernames in a notepad. Joining an Arah group with a person on that list? Leave.

Bright.9160:

Now, unless you provide proof, I’m going to assume you’re just a bad player who got kicked because he was being carried.

I highly doubt they’d leave it until the end to kick someone who was being carried.

Likewise you shouldn’t assume everybody is doing it your way. Best of both, and there will be both. It’s best to eradicate this whole system before any problem worsens.

That was a normal moderator, not a developer. Lies? Likely.

Hopefully it becomes so flooded with people selling dungeons, that it takes far too long to sell these spots, making the whole method worthless.

I still fail to see why it should be allowed. While it is a lot less cruel the way your method works, as it catches in there will be MANY groups where players will be kicked, so the spot can be sold.

It’s already very common practice for players to kick PUGs at Maw in Fractals to invite a friend, I’m sure you’ve seen many of these threads around the forum. Throw this into making profit? Yeah, a no brainer for many of the extremely greedy.

The problem needs to be addressed before that happens more.

The Mexican Cookie.3690:

Also, don’t encourage people to scam those who could be offering a legitimate service to others.

It’s not scamming. Etiquette is super simple stuff, dungeon selling shouldn’t be allowed, and those who attempt to should be punished for it.

And as for proof, I have none. I would not touch a group with a PUG entering with a bargepole, it’s asking for trouble. Why would people drop their own reward they sunk ~30 minutes into, probably to get maybe a 50s split for each spot is sold?

swiftpaw.6397:

Or you could like.. I dunno.. Join a guild.

And play with other people in an online game?! Heresy!

SteepledHat.1345:

AC is a breeze. (But apparently Anet thinks it’s harder than CoE and SE. -.-)

It actually is. COE and SE are only more difficult than COF.

The Mexican Cookie.3690:

If anyone is looking for an Arah run, pm me ingame. Can and will do all paths

More people like this please.

People selling dungeon runs was a big problem before this patch, and now with more people running Arah (because of increased rewards), it’s becoming an even bigger problem.

Group leaders take a buddy, abuse 3 other people to get to the last boss, then kick the other 3 people to sell those spots at a profit.

Of course, there is no way to stop this happening, but a hindrance to those doing it is at least required – possibly make it so a new player cannot join a dungeon after a certain point (In Arah, I suggest after GL).

Until something official is done, I will encourage players to join these runs and leave without payment to discourage such behavior.

Months?

kitten you’re playing the game wrong.

It really isn’t tough. The only “tough” thing about it is if you’re in a full PUG and nobody came prepared to deal with the bleeding.

One Guardian with Soldier Runes or POV trait is all you need, and they are plentiful.

Path 1 should be 2g, though.

CM Path 1 gives 1g and SE Path 3 gives 1g.

I will also confirm your pricing on CM Path 2, SE Path 1, COF Paths 1 & 2 and Arah Path 3 are correct.

How are we supposed to know.

/thread.

What dungeon do you do that’s 1.5 to 2 hours?

Oh right, anything that isn’t COF P1 with your other farmer buddies right?

Killshot warrior looks so much fun, will be trying it out when I make my layzor gun. Rangers are boring – period.

So we can have more people who are clueless about their class, and pick flavour of the month?

No thanks, there are several character slots for a reason.

I’m oh so glad when I PUG it’s usually only 1 person. Phew, dodged a bullet here.

Zacchary.6183:

Fortus.6175:

Simple question really, do seeing a person with a legendary make you go like; “Ohhh!”, are you indifferent, or another reaction?

Nope.

Fortus.6175:

Is there any reputation on getting one?

Nope.

Fortus.6175:

Would you go for it for the reputation or for the looks?

Nope.

Fortus.6175:

If it became harder/easier would you appreciate it more/less?

Nope.

Fortus.6175:

If you do appreciate something from legendaries or its users, what is it?

Nope.

The Minstrel is fine as it is, it has its effects. If you don’t like the effects, don’t get it, very simple stuff.

Prayer to Dwayna (Human heal) on my Guardian, occasionally use Hounds of Balthazar elite on her too (Guardian elites are unnecessarily defensive).

I really don’t think any other racial skills are worth mentioning, in a PvE situation. Elites to replace the trashy Ele/Guardian ones I guess.

jonathan.7862:

i feel weak as a warrior

I spat coffee over my monitor.

Hunter came through on the TP today.

Don’t know what’s left, not like there’s any rush.

Viking Jorun.5413:

With the shear amount of bolts I’m glad I got Infinite Light for my thief <_<

Bolt was pretty cool quite a few months ago, but everybody and their Nan is getting it on my server now and it’s starting to become tiresome, I see at least 1 new person in LA with it everyday.

Quick Mouse.7635:

Imo the +5 stats are not worth the investment. Save the mats for your legendary instead

Your logic is incredibly flawed, it’s not worth a statistical upgrade, but worth a tiny portion of a cosmetic sidegrade? Gotcha.

This is just a “show off your Legendary” thread, by making them either the center of the attention as opposed to the character. The reality is, nobody cares about your purples since 8 months or so ago.

Best looking Mesmer? Yep.

Dolan.3071:

Dodge rolling is OP. Change it to something like 50% damage taken from hits when evading and the current Meta would collapse. Then you’d start seeing more build variety, more pure support guardians, etc etc.
Not saying I recommend this course of action as there’s a thin line before it becomes a WoW ripoff.

Aswell as me never eating dinner again because dungeons will take too long.

RNG in the gem store has been complained about since the start. How have you not learned by now?

Axe/Mace and GS swapping with Fast Hands trait. You get the superior auto attack damage from Axe, the vuln from Axe/Mace, and the burst from 100B and Whirling Attack.

Salvaged my Shield and Harpoon Gun, 3 Ectos each. One shall not complain!

What if I told you people want Zerker only because they don’t want people they don’t know affecting their profits?

Was too lazy to read comments.

There’s a rock around – place a keg on there and the mobs won’t bother with the other kegs you place. Not an exploit, but some consider it so.

Alternatively, 2 people spam drop kegs near the pile, and the rest run kegs to the gate.

When a mob picks a keg up, they don’t drop it unless killed. Just make them ALL have a keg and the ones you plant won’t be removed.

hoewhoew.4619:

And you can get a precursor form a WvW leveling chest or as a drop in WvW. Point? :p

The point is that they are indentical in potential rewards.

Esplen.3940:

While killing 10k players you’re getting massive loot rewards, potential dailies/monthlies and a lot more.

Sure, there are daily jumping puzzles, but you’re not going to get that more than once for each unique jumping puzzle finish (if you even get it when you complete a unique jumping puzzle).

And you can get a precursor from a JP chest. Point?

That you don’t know the actual meaning of Ranger makes this thread invalid.

/thread.

1) Run dungeon with friends.
2) Kill stuff, get l00t.
3) ???
4) Profit
5) Buy purpz.

Draknar.5748:

what you mean by all of this? You got multiple Legendaries without a precursor?

Not sure you know how Legendaries work, but they in fact do require a precursor drop and/or getting lucky in the toilet. The only other option is to purchase the precursors and/or Legendaries off of the TP for hundreds if not thousands of gold. But you couldn’t possibly be suggesting everyone should just buy their items off of the TP. That would be a stupid thing to suggest.

Yes, I purchased every precursor as if I was as unlucky in the MF to the degree of some stories suggest, it would likely lead me to quitting, and sitting around waiting for that particular drop will take a ludicrous amount of time, if ever (~2.1k hours of solid PvE).

Sure SOMEONE needs to get that precursor drop/MF luck, but it is possible to get Legendaries without being that person.

What I was getting at is that so many people on these forums complain that they cannot get their Legendary without being that person.

ilr.9675:

unless they can post multiple screenshots of chests they pop containing Charged Cores. (which they won’t b/c most of them don’t even have the right servers or skill to complete those Encounters)

Oh great master, tell me how you can comprehend a players in game ability from a forum thread!

What you need to craft Legendaries are not ingame as a major part of them September time was discovering what they required.

Obviously that’s no longer the case, but it’s a waste of development time making it when it’s so simple to type “/wiki Legendary”

ShiningSquirrel.3751:

I wish they had a system where you could vote on a players reputation so others could see who to avoid.

This is a neat idea, but is easily abuse-able too. I guess at the very least it means if someone has “high rep” it means it’s likely a safer bet to trust them.

Alternatively, the expensive exotic skins from the Mystic Forge, such as Volcanus, Mjolnir, Infinite Light, and all those other pretty, non-legendary skins.

It really isn’t necessary. Not to brag, but to put it into context I have multiple legendaries without even trying to craft a precursor and this is a list of my best drops:

- Molten Firestorm (~100g at the time, ~60g now). I didn’t sell this and still have it, but I included it for correctness.
- Khilbron’s Boots (~12g at the time).
- Super Sword (8g at the time).
- Deathwish (7g at the time).

Everything else has been no more than a few gold, with 90% of my “exotic” drops being “junk” and worth <1g.

Tell me again how Legendaries require you to get a precursor drop or lucky in the MF.

Zumy.6318:

And that I know how to trade does not mean things fall into my hands. I did not get 23k gold through RNG.

This forum:

“RNG DIDN’T GO MY WAY, “x” HAS BEEN NERFED@!! AN CONFIRM IT ALREADY!@!"

Your sample size is far too small to even give any conclusive or even vague evidence, try multiplying it by … let’s just say 100×.

winterlove.6834:

ok well myy fractal reward level is 27 and i did a 28 and a 38 but go0t no side chest for the 38 no rerlic or nothin jiust got big chest

That is because you did not qualify for the 30-38 daily and had already completed your “best” daily that your level allows.

Astralporing.1957:

being the only one

TooBz.3065:

being the only one

The only one, but somehow you expect 2 to be able to be equipped? Gotcha.

ArchonWing.9480:

By your unquestionable logic, then you shouldn’t have been able to buy a duplicate due to it being unique.

Agreed, and this is the flaw – not being able to use 2 of the same is perfectly fine.

Yes.

/15char.

Yes, because Celestial and Sentinel are great stat combinations so they sure are Pay2Win!

/endsarcasm

The definition of a Ranger is someone who wanders about large areas of country, or a rover, NOT someone who specialises in Ranged combat.

Yes, please rename them so everybody and their nan stops joining their groups thinking they have to do junk damage with LB/SB swapping.
