Hello. I’ve started the Rodgort collection but I can’t reach the “Burn the heart of a Destroyer” part. I have killed dozens of destroyers with a friend in several maps. Is that just freaking bad RNG or we did something wrong/it’s bugged somehow.

Thanks !

You can do higher level than you personal level, and you will level up (same goes if you do the same level as your personal)
Careful though, the reward scale with your level, so you won’t be, for example have 4 daily chests by doing 50 40 30 20 10, if your personal level is 4.
And starting to level 10, you will need agony resistance.

If you really want to play well and contribute to your group’s success, you will adopt the optimal strategy.

If Anet decides to completely rework their game to create a whole new meta, people will still have the problem of not being adaptive or smart enough to play efficiently.

You don’t need that in dungeon or fractal either, but players can learn it to play better and clear dungeons faster, or just stay wanabe zerkers.

Gunsnroll.2657

By learn how to play, I meant boss mechanics, of course you can just stack and kill it, but knowing when to dodge, what skills to use, what trait to swap, that is what makes the difference between someone who claim being meta zerk and someone who play with no defense stats because it’s the fastest way to clear things.
The part of the community that is garbage, is the one thinking they are meta zerk and have no skill or brain.
Experienced people who play with proper gear and actually try to do their best and not just sack kill and move without knowing why won’t blame you for a little mistake, won’t mind to explain to you if you ask, as long as you don’t join saying you’re pro.

If you don’t like this playstyle, don’t join those teams, they are teams that don’t want those “optimals” runs.

I don’t see pugging in raids a good thing, it will be a total mess.

And let’s be honest most of the players that do meta only have no skill at all but they get a free ride for having the right gear and class.

Don’t mix up pugs with players that “do the meta”, a large amount of them are nothing like the exp meta they claim they are and want to play with.

Adding this reward system won’t change anything about the fact that no defensive stats is needed and that it’s faster to just run full zerk and learn how to play.

Gunsnroll.2657

What version did you buy ?
Seems to me that the 2 slots you’re talking about are not the beta slot, but the gifted slots from prepruchase. If they were beta slots, you wouldn’t be able to double click on them to create a char.
So since they are just char slot, you can’t choose revenant yet.
However, you should have 4 beta slots (maybe not yet) and will be able to play any class you want with revealed specialisations when beta will be up.

They hinted something about guild event.

As you are aware, we have a lot of new players joining Guild Wars 2 these days. But you may not know is that in addition to preparing our presentation about raids and our Play for Free initiative, and even while working towards the October 23rd release date of Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns, the dev team also has been working on a game event!

We’ll have more information for you about the event later this week. For now, let’s just say that there’s never been a better time to be in a guild!

It’s pretty much the same thing as it used to be. Skipping, killing boss, and so on.
The only thing changed, is Lupi, he use necrid bolt at melee range.
For the classe, it doesnt really matter since you can skip and solo on most of them, only your skill will matter.

The hammer looks like it will finally make melee an option for engineers.

Reading things like these makes me cry.
You keep talking about melee, but sadly, you have a very poor idea of what it is.
Melee was never an option to engineers, it’s mandatory.
If you would have at least tried it, you would have seen that engi got many things that are buffed at melee range. You just see “range: 1000” under rifle skills and you assume you have to play it ranged.
The thing that will decide if hammer is worthy will never be that number you see after range, it will be its damage, if hammer can outdps the rifle, then we will take it, else we will still play rifle in melee.
And I’m so sorry for you if you think engi use their rifle auto.

I won’t change how I play if weapons are crap.
I may enjoy more my mesmer because of the new trait line, hammer may be fun for engi.
Ele will stay staff, thief won’t change, I will definitely not change guard or even buying a bow. And probably won’t change much with war.
So basically I will adapt but I will still play thief.

Gunsnroll.2657

Well I don’t think it would be better to bring a mesmer instead of a guard if you don’t use portals.
Especially now Guards bring a really good amount of quickness.
Even if the mesmer got buffed on last patch, I think they’re still behind guards.

I may be wrong though, maybe mesmer can add something more, for experienced teams who don’t need aegis.

But in the end, if you want only casuals runs, a good mesmer, shouldn’t slow the team that much.

Ranger gets staff, thief gets rifle

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Gunsnroll.2657

Gunsnroll.2657

We already know ranger get’s staff and are medium armor like the thief. Anet is not going to give a staff to two elite professions

How do you know this?

Anet announced staff rangers, Druid specialisation, when they revealed HoT. They never said anything about not giving 2 identif weapons to elite spec.

Maybe it’s a Javelin ?

Confirmed thieves to become the first official Olympic E-Sport Class ?

I would love to see a spear/javelin in the game, for more reasons that just thief. But we sadly know it’s not going to happen and that they don’t intend to add new weapons to the salad.

And for those who still see a rifle, I am truly sorry for you, my prayers will be for your sake.

I don’t see a problem with a thief and a melee staff, it would suit well the profession, martial arts and everything.
Same for the rifle, the problems of this are not from the fact that it wouldnt fit.

That looks to me like a Rifle.

Ok to settle this once and for all, look at those 2 pictures, if you still see a rifle, a spear or wathever else than a staff, you’re blind and I feel sorry for you.
Or you’re just a troll.
And the preview show the staff in game.

The specialisation may be rifle, staff or something else, Anet knows we datamine and they me be trolling us (cf sword skills for ele, and now they removed and a war horn appears taht looks like the ele spec), but one thing is sure, in this picture, it’s a staff, nothing else.

And I guess people may not like some weapons because of their nature, LB guard, Rifle thief, they’re ranged, and people who play PvE are aware they won’t use them. Because there is no chance the LB offers more damage than any melee wepon the guardian has, and the rifle can’t gives more utility than SB. Same for Warhorn for ele, if it happens, the meta won’t change for the weapons at least, because now for ele, staff is by far on top, and sword would’ve been able to offer more, war horn won’t, because you will still have scepter or dagger main hand.
A Melee weapon, whatever it might be, let a chance to be good, a ranged one gives no place to hope.

In the picture, there is no way that it’s a rifle, it simply don’t.
You clearly see the staff going from right top to bottom left.

Keep saying that it can be rifle in this picture is just bs. Open your eyes.

I would be happy to see a staff for thief, since it has a chance to be usefull, since rifle will propably won’t be used because it’s ranged, and we have already blast on demand.

Yeah, there is a trait that offer +10% dmg on enemies inside a symbol.
The problem is that if you put more symbol, the dmg increase and with 5 guards it’s kinda op.

Can revenants use 1h swords/shield?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: Gunsnroll.2657

Gunsnroll.2657

you got the old skills Diovid, it has been updated, and Sword MH is more a power-based weapon (thank God, I was tired of the stupid Sword=Condition only philosophy).
In my case, I just hope to get a power Sword offhand to dual wield, but since they use axe offhand I guess mace & sword offhand will come in time too.

You’re aware that Thieves/Mesmers/Guardians have a power based MH sword right ?
And that the only condition based one is on war.
