Genesis Notch.1905:

5 days to go. Another set of 1800 gems to be wasted. Sadly my request to be re-transferred back to JQ was rejected.

PS: Thanks for sharing this story, AFS. God I hope I knew this earlier.

COntact me bro, i will sponsor your gems to go back to EMP.

DB’s weakest time is NA, so yes they got more competition.

However, I’ll point out that NA is also JQ’s weakest time. Challenge/competition, to me, weren’t the true reasons for the transfer. But this is all irrelevant now. What is done is done.

We’re still going to take anyone changing their minds -and I’ve been contacted by a few already, though by only about 5- with open arms, bar a few specific individuals.

High 5 to oxy

Lesson to raw and lee.

When you decide on something so drastic, for the love of God, kitten ask your Guildmates first, even atleast for a few days before.

All respect to the 83% of the EMP that stayed. Respect to oxy. Also, if any member from DB wants to come back, we luv you, and wholeheartedly accept you back, that includes lee. But rawnoodles. Well Im not really sure if i want to see him again.

Its a small portion of emp (1/4) going from what i heard

I have just confirmed that the SEA/OCEANIC and significant number , almost over 80% are still playing in JQ

JQ luv 4eva

Thank you colin, habib for making wvwvw. I love you guys!!!!!! Seriously

Yes i may be drinking white one, but i love you all for doubling your wvw efforts.

SoR and BG, you guys make t1 lovely.

Ok i better go back to may wine.

But know this Colin and habib and all the other ex-mythic players we love that Anet is now putting much greater than double the effort.

Hugs to sor and bg and the friends i have made. I love you alll

hugzzz or and a shout out to all emp. You guys are lovely beyond anythinggsd

Because we’ve been on T7, found it too easy, moved to T5, found it too easy, moved to T4, found it too easy, moved to T3, found it too easy, moved to T2… and we met our match.

So presumably, all the players on T1 servers are more skilled than you are?

No, but if we were to transfer to T1, we’d have a harder time than on T2.

Ah so basically you’re stating that you are more skilled then everyone else in this game, got it.

T1 generally mean cream of the crop. zerg/gank/duels etc.

I run many gank/spank groups and never ever disocurage joiners.

But if u can see its GvG, respect, and dont intervene. But rare for small scale gvg spank fights.

Lightning strike , is for wvw only. If you dont wvw then its useless

Play DnD

in WvW we still kick kitten , but gone are the days when 4vs1 was easy. Now most 1v1 are easy but 2v1 is becoming much harder.

Folks are getting better in wvw

But every spank /gank grp needs an ele for effectiveness

Many folks have gone from

0/10/0/30/30

to

10/10/0/30/20

with the same boon duration gear but now have increased their crit with crit stacks.

i.e. I have with full stacks, 47% crit and 2000 pow 20316hp , 30% boon duration bonus, 40% attuenment recharge bonus.

Cantrips vigor regeneration has also been nerfed.

Were you dead so you could be rezzed through the wall?

I was outside the wall (on hills keep). I had just thrown a couple people off with temporal curtain before they came down and killed me. This wasn’t me attempting to cheat, just people being petty.

Sounds like you are the one being petty if you are getting bothered and wanting to report someone over some in game emotes.. Honestly-

You do know what tea bagging means right?

To have a man insert his kitten into another person’s mouth in the fashion of a teabag into a mug with an up/down (in/out) motion.

Anzu.5702:

Hard to say but I think the mid to lower tiers like 3-6 have some decent small man fights?

I thought top tiers are

tier 1/2/3

Mid tiers 4/5/6

and low tiers 7/8/World of warcraft

You are right about 20 arc and the 10 air. And auramancers are cool 2.

I know what not to buy, Precursors. Their drop rate is getting increased.

The rank -recruit should have actually been in the first rank instead of 15

The rule of emotes are :

If the fight was a good fight , you /bow

If you did not want to fight, you /cry

If you won someone clearly superior to you, you /laugh

If you feel happy about the kill, you /cheer

If it was someone you knew, you jump on corpse

If you want to be a prune about it, you tea bag.

If the enemy should have not even bothered fighting you, you /no

John Smith.4610:

Let’s calm down a bit, this isn’t getting us far. Instead let me ask this.
Here are the assumptions that I’m operating under for this question:
1. You feel that PvE and TP have difference levels of gold earning
2. You feel that PvE and TP should have the same level of gold earning

What would be your plan for implementing a reward system that would achieve what you desire, given the constraint that you may not get rid of the trading post?

Increase the drop by 33%

All 3 realms seem to be fine. I know from the 3 to 8pm crowd, BG suffers the most , SoR and JQ both around the 4.30 to 6.30pm slot.

As far as NA time, all 3 are formidable forces.

As for SEA, JQ wins, but it is a close fight with SoR.

As for EU, im not really sure.

I say the question that sticks anyone to any particular area are the guild and server attributes.

So in answer, all 3 have que times, are good and are friendly. I have friends across all 3 different worlds and the decision is tuff.

Nakoor.1980:

I just wish JQ and BG had some decent Havoc groups. The ones I’ve ran across just die too easily.

Spank master here. Come play during oz/sea timezone.

covenn.7165:

I wouldn’t know about staff. I don’t solo or small man with that weapon out.

People actually roam with staff??!

Judging by the sheer amount of people complaining about how weak staff is, I have to assume they do.

Aye. I think the only time you catch a staffer is when his running to meet zerg mates

Similar cooldown to arcane power.

I believe it stacks with fury

SO guessing from the comments, its not worth the risk. Dang.

Unfortunately our lgm daggers look craptastic. I like the fractal one but no chance of me ever doing pve.

ANyone knows if this will get me banned?

SmokeyNYY.7841:

holy emp zerg on jq borderland right now….

LFk.1408:

Eh. I have a bank overflowing with Ascended Rings, but even I don’t think they should be acquirable for money.

I do feel certain things should actually necessitate playing the game in order to obtain.

So I support: many, many more ways to acquire these items. Right now it’s kind of limited.

Rare drops from X champ? Awesome. WvW based reward? Great. Achievement based? Dungeon based? Whatever works: but no. Not for money.

What about Badges for Ascended gear ? WOuld you agree to that?

Thanks Puandro !

JQ didnt just happen. It was hard work by the entire server as a whole.

here is the power supply

SolarNova.1052:

Fuzzion ..is that one of their laptops that runs a desktop CPU ? ..if so then yea, they r good for gaming , the CPU’s dont down clock with more corse in use, unlike mobile/laptop CPU’s which will only run at their max turbo frequency with 1 core, as more corse are used that frequency drops. Hence why ‘most’ laptops wont be good for GW2 WvW.

Hahah yes. The battery only lasts 17 minutes. Not even really sure why they bother with the battery.

Also if you play games in the library, all 3 fans blow and sound like a vacuum cleaner. Carrying it around is stupid because the full weight is close to 22 pounds with bag and all.

GSTim.8094:

Actually I still can’t understand what’s the problem making separate reset times.

You still need the technicians to monitor the reset , during and after. It is not cheap and is executed by both soft and hardware. However, since they are clouded, it wont be over the top to separate the times by some minor margin,i.e. 2 hrs.

I wonder if BG is going to do their iconic rush on thursday and all friday to come second.

Zaxares.5419:

I really do wish that Ascended items could be put up for sale on the TP though. I hear stories from guildmates who do Fractals regularly complaining that they have dozens of Ascended rings, but they can’t do anything with them. They can’t sell them, their alts are all equipped, and merching them seems like a waste.

Exactly. Some folk love fractals and should be allowed to sell their wares on the tp.

Gorni.1764:

Sword is completely useless in 1v1-situations.

Disagree 100%. If you are staff and faced by a mean opponent, you hit mistform, hit the elite sword skill and spam 3 at the 1v1 situation hitting the player for 5k in 2 seconds. Hit immobolise on the enemy, spam no.2 and then number 3 to pwn enemy.

Found it

Author is theorycraft expert puandro.

I have the entire data map for damage stats for the entire ele on spreadsheet at home. Will find it and post after work.

Astral Projections.7320:

Yeah, an idea worth considering. As long as they don’t make them some ridiculous price for each.

Agree.They should let the players set the prices. Non soul bound on acquire. This would greatly benefit both the PvE market and the WvW market.

I would really like to hear what Anet says on such a future prospect.

Mif.3471:

As a scout / yak runner / upgrader, I find the lack of badges very annoying.
.

As a professional ganker slash yak slapper, I find picking your badge lootbags to be rather pointless since badges dont give much.

CuddleStrike.8215:

Score Update!

For those of you not online!

Hi Thor

Your update

Huechi.2658:

I think OP is asking if ascended gear could be bought directly with gold instead of the various combinations of fractal relics, laurels, guild commendations and ectos. I think. :S

My pockets are deep , i dont pve so no fractals, i dont have time for dailies because i spend that two hours roaming and ganking players which even if i did accomplish would take me forever to get a full set, guild stuff i miss and ectos, not sure what u mean.

We can buy exotic and can buy LGM, why cant we buy ascended stuff?

I have noticed the skill lag issue improve since the last ninja patch. Lets see what today’s ninja patch brings.

8gb+titan+anything asus

Money is the question.

My notebook specs are i7 running overclocked to 4ghz, 6gb triple chan ram 1666, 460gtx(overclocked edition) sli and 128ssd with 500gb secondary hardrive

Its over two years old and aside from overheating after 12hr long use, its runs everything really well. farcry3/bio infinite/gw2/etc all at very high to ultra seeting.

Even alienware cant beat its performance. The only disadvantage is the size. The power supply is as big as a brick ! The laptop is almost 2 inches thick and makes for a good heater during winter

So if you want a Laptop portable desktop go here

www.sagernotebook.com

The average gw2 will have around 400gold in assests/armour/mats if played from day 1 with pve mixed with wvw.

Pleaseeee? will you ever???

laharl.8435:

Some rich guy will probably see it, “Eh, Frostfang, why not?!”, and toss it into his legendary stockpile.

Congrats on a journey well done! Time to start a new one.

2000 gold is 700usd. Do folks really spend 700 on items in gw2? I have seen the same LGM listings sit there for the last 3 months.

Victory.2879:

Ranking system working as intended- tag the most people in your zerg ball whilst flipping objectives and you achieve the highest rank.

I have noticed that as well. The Rank system does not benefit roamers/gank squads/Yak assassins as much as a 80 on 80 on 80 zerg fight.
