Guild Wars 2

I just visually saw the life force bar drop almost 10% out of nowhere. Now is there any reason the life force bar should ever be dropping?

Can’t prove it but I’m pretty sure there’s a bug that causes necros to lose lifeforce…

In WvW I’d be roaming around trying to cap ruins, hit an enemy player a few times with marks and still end up with 0% lifeforce. There are also times I would be fighting for a while and suddenly need lifeforce to realize that I don’t even have enough.

I have a theory that it may be due to condis. The latest two times I noticed a low lifeforce count were during fights with a condi mesmer and another necro.

I’d like to think I’m not just crazy.

Someone’s delusional…

Atleast all the armor has holes for the tails on charr, so there’s that… :/

Axe shrinking bug fixed but the back item/offhand weapon disappearing still exists.

Some petrified fun.

Petrified is -in my mind- the best part of the fun boxes. I always have a lot of fun with them and when the fun box randomly changes I would just sit there and wait for petrified to pop up again.

I would like if Anet could make Petrified Tonics/Potions.

And since this is my brilliant idea, I would like to have the first, free Unlimited Petrified Tonic/Potion.

Thank you and good night.

+1 to this. As far as we know, no-one has gotten the achievement, and it’s been a week and a half. It’s possible that there’s some hidden nook that has yet to be explored, but at this point it seems unlikely.

And if there was then it’s safe to say they went a bit too far with it.

Another thing; From the leaked patch notes, “weapon skills that hide your weapon no longer hide your back item”, this bug also hid offhand weapons. Although it wasn’t said, I hope that got fixed as well…

There’s a bug where axes are shrunken in size when sheathed. This happens for all axes including Frostfang. I’m not sure if this is exclusive to charr…

Discovered it in preview feature but you can see it as it happens in the video.

It’s about time the trait stuff got fixed. The information is incredibly vague and having full knowledge can change everything. This is no exaggeration.

Disappointed in the fact that eles are getting yet another invaluable tool (line of warding). Eles are literally capable of anything at this point and it’s becoming a problem.

I’ve been addicted to SAB both times it’s been released and with all the time I’ve been playing, I still haven’t manage to find a consistent way to kill assassins without taking damage. One of the weirdest things about all enemies in SAB is that most of the time they have no body hit detection, then randomly they do, so running through them is a gamble. The thing about assassins is that they love to run and they love to run through you. Just something I think should be fixed.

What do you mean no logic or skill? I found incredibly logical progression throughout the entirety of stage 2, and I don’t even know what you could possibly mean by no skill…

I’m talking about the hard mode aka mental nonsense mode. The regular mode is fairly straight forward, yes.

There is no logic, there’s hardly any skill.

This is the first time I feel like I’m being pressured and pushed to get something from the gem shop, and the only reason I haven’t yet is in spite of Anet and this absurd game design.

I’m even cheating with a video guide and I still feel it’s become a necessity.

EDIT: I’m referring to the hard mode people!

What he said…

But seriously, sylvari and asura do have their problems with armor. Asura more than sylvari and charr much more than asura. That’s a fairly large player base that is being treated like second class compared to the ‘human’ player base.

Like someone else said in this thread, I’ve lost A LOT of respect for Anet because of this and I hope they’ll manage to redeem themselves. First, by responding to this godkitten topic for once -not while being caught off guard and without any consideration- and second, by doing what they feel they SHOULD do with their game and not be swayed so much by the outcry of the community or the larger player base. Then we’ll see where they stand.

I don’t think they ruled it out completely. They definitely have it as a lowest priority though. Meanwhile, the gap between charr and humans only gets worse…

I’m stunned at what was said during the panel when someone asked about charr armor and if it will get fixed. Basically, they care most for humans and least for lesser played races (charr).

I hate playing humans, yet it is the race I have the most of BECAUSE of the neglect every other race gets. This never ending cycle won’t fix unless they pay attention to the other races for once.

If Anet doesn’t care about charr then how the hell are we suppose to?

Confirmed. It’s a recently added bug.

It’s not a pleasant bug for all the trial players to be seeing.

Everyone has their weapon unsheathed while in the passive stance… Everyone.

This used to be a somewhat occasional bug that you would see a couple of times (unaware of how it was triggered) but it’s now been expanded to every single player, at all times.

Tachenon.5270:

Delete stuff? I still have the mysterious soggy bag from the first karka event. I know that the instant I delete it there will be an announcement: turn in your mysterious soggy bag for a free pony! Your choice of colors!

Quoted for truth. I’m hesitant to throw seemingly useless things away anymore with the way Anet keeps changing the value of past items.

Has camera shake suddenly become really annoying to anyone else? I’ve only noticed it while in the Crown Pavilion though.

PS: I’m aware it can be shut off.

“We’re making it easier to earn World XP points for playing normally in World vs. World by increasing the WXP rate across the board! As an added bonus, we’re adjusting World vs. World Ability Points so that your total points are equal to your current rank. New characters will start off with one ability point, and all existing characters will receive one more!”

I guess this means that WvW ranks will never be account bound like they should…

Suggestion: Differentiate the color of enemy pets from enemies just as the color of friendly pets are differentiated from friendlies.

Suggestion: Tab targeting prioritizes players over pets.

Hate trying to target a ranger in a sea of spirits or a necro in a sea of minions, either by tab targetting or by clicking on them. It becomes a nuisance.

Chests are still dropping Support Tokens.

Oh my god, dungeon tokens are account bound now?!

:(

I used to be able to farm a full set of dungeon gear in 2 days. Stop with the time-gating Anet, WTH!

Let us play the way we want to play…

After beating Liadri with a necro – no vigor, no consumables, no block, no teleport, no reflect, no invulnerability, no stability, no aegis, no invisibility, and horrible heals – I believe any professions should be able to win this fight with decent ranged DPS… every professions.

If you’re able to keep aware of the AoE pattern and you’re positioning, there’s nothing more you need.

Hi

So a few things about the latest DS changes:

1. Death Shroud incoming damage
   • You now take the correct amount of incoming damage. Before this change (and it wasn’t always like this, either) you would takes the same damage twice.
   • Your Life Force pool is still the same as it has always been. 60% of your maximum health while alive, plus an additional 0-30% of that base value for Traits, meaning you can have a maximum of 78% of your max health.
2. The change to having damage spill over to your health pool was indeed to resolve falling damage, but was also how Death Shroud was, from a Design standpoint, intended to function. Obviously making these changes simultaneously was to help decrease any sense of buff/nerf to the mechanic itself.
3. Thirdly, we are testing a new way to reflect your Life Force energy pool in the UI using real-life numbers! .

-Bill

Yet, eles can still jump, interact with objects, and move through portals from downed state… seems fair.

Liadri the Concealing Dark is a prime example of why necros defense is horrible. DS means nothing when everything one shots you.

The biggest problems with alts right now is WvW ranks and Fractals levels. These should both be account bound. Having them be character bound forces me to play certain characters for different aspects of the game.

With Fractals I am indeed playing that same character even though I would love to be able to switch around and have some variety. With WvW on the other hand I play whichever character I want and this has essentially made WvW ranks meaningless to me.

Evening Grass (1st pic) and Evergreen (2nd pic) are the same color dyes.

The first time I went over 10 I never got it. Then countless times after I let it reach 10 and deleted a few to let it keep retrying. Afterwards I let it go past 10 once more and I finally got it.

So basically, I needed to go OVER 10 to get the hint and I needed to go over 10 for the second time since I didn’t get it the first time. (It is bugged just not how you thought it was)

AC pants? I am AC-traumatized
Arah Mid is really great, a screen to prove it fits snuggly on Charr:

Although it still has texture stretching.

:(

I’m just gonna post here for support. This issue has already been talked to death. I have nothing more to say.

Could you tell us the page number? Or you could private message Six.

I would be ecstatic with necro if they gave us some options for vigor and endurance regen. Compared to the other light armor classes our mobility is horrific. A good mobility and defense boost is dodge.

EDIT: But then again, our support and utility options would still be pitiful for PvE considering that we work around manipulating conditions and buffs and how they’re both rarely a problem in PvE.

I play necro in Fractals 48 everyday and our defense is just not good enough. When something hits you for a thousands of damage per attack, having extra health doesn’t cut it. Invulnerability, vigor, block, teleport, reflect, invisibility… we have none of it.

The last big patch for necros was a good start but wasn’t good enough. If Anet doesn’t want to give necros anything other than death shroud for defensive options, then give them more access to death shroud.

What bugs me most is that elementalists literally have it all and they can do it well. They have an answer for any single possible situation there is in this game and while I’m sitting in fractals trying to conjure up some Idea to be useful to my team with my necro, I fail 90% of the time.

To add insult to injury, not only are elementalists not considered overpowered, but now NECRO IS?! What a joke.

GW1 assassin armor was “blech” as with most of GW1s armor. As for Charr, the new armor in the sPvP lockers still has all the problems we come to expect. Oh god…

Actually… I’m a fan of aspect arena, but that’s besides the point. I hope they change up some mechanics big time next time the reintroduce southsun survival back to Tyria.

The dead players are more of a concern than the other survivors. The whole game is just screwed up.

The main goal to winning this game is surviving the DEAD. That’s right, the first thing you have to do is literally run and hide from all the future dead players. Hide and hope none of them find you because if even one finds you, you’re dead.

The dead players have an absurd amount of control over the game in it’s current state. I’m all for letting the dead players contribute to the game to speed thing’s up and have fun but to give them direct control over the outcome of the entire match is depressing. Giving them the ability to knock down a player dropping everything and summon a huge insta-kill karka above their grounded body or being able to instantly apply a 20 second(?) 6 stacks or torment is just too much.

The game has a lot of potential – could have been my favorite mini game – but right now, certain mechanics are making this the least fun mini-game to date.

Are we not allowed to have skills that do damage with a 1/4 cast time anymore? Elementalists are in for a rude awakening.

spoj.9672:

Are you baiting? We have enough long cast time abilities we dont need another.

This is so sad… ‘cause it’s true.

As with canceling all skills, you have to dodge.

There are skills in the game that root the player. I suggest that Anet removes the root and reduces the movement speed to about 10-15% during the cast of the skill. This would make the skills that root the player a little less annoying and a little more fun. It would also prevent the players from accidentally canceling the skill by moving.

kitten , I have to post this in that other thread?
