Guild Wars 2

No, this guy is a guardian with staff. I remember quitting from his group before. Every time I stacked might as an ele, he would overdrive it with Empower. When I asked him very nicely that he would stop doing that. He responded to me with “Shut the f—- up or get the f—- out” -“But seriously, please” -“U don’t read or u’re blind”. Ooh, the memory is so vivid it’s coming back. Why do I only remember it now…

Don’t be salty on me when I flame you with your abysmal addiction to a terrible weapon. Not that we ever get to play fractals anymore lately :\

On that note, yesterday I opened an LFG for “50, No underwater Mossman. No carry. No free ride”. The group was filled almost instantly. Under suspicion of some quick-fingered merge, I asked if any of the new comers actually read the LFG and what it was about. A guy answered me with: “Shut the f—- up, b—— and get on to it (the wisp)”. Without saying a thing, my friend and I entered our emergency protocol and abandoned the instance at once. The rude guy didn’t forget to chase after his victim (see pic below), only to meet with total annihilation. Body was burnt and ash scattered. So long.

My revenant. I haven’t decided on the staff skin yet, but fractal sword/axe/mace/hammer are love!

I keep seeing flame thrower camping engineers everywhere in pugs from fotm to dungeons. They all seem very confident in their knowledge about zerker meta, yet when asked if FT camping is good DPS, their answers have been randomly such as “I need stability”, “I need might”, etc. I find them worse when they spam all of their CC off cool down and messed up boss’ position or defiant stacks.

Is Flamegi the new Bearbow now?

Well, the pug meta is changing, indeed. Kinda scary there.

Anyway I was just saying that he’s toxic himself too and I would also kick him if he joins a group and comes with his low level character instead of his main character. Even if it says all levels welcome etc. It’s just bad behaviour and I don’t want to be in a group with someone like that, especially when he fails really hard and I need to carry him (I’d rather carry someone who is actually new to the game).

…

Playing a dungeon at-level in a group that’s advertised ‘all welcome’ is bad behavior and toxic. Wow.

Everyone runs dungeons at level 80 for a good reason. OP refuses to do so and dies with his low level characters so often that people won’t rezz him. Why does he insist to play with his garbage character(s)? How would you call this behaviour?

Anyway I said something different. That’s your interpretation.

Every careless mistakes can quickly down you in AC, 80 or not.

• Getting down by the spike trap? Check, once very two instances
• Getting down by 25 stacks of bleed because I don’t want to interrupt my Meteor Shower/Ice Bow/Hundred Blades/whatever else cast on a burrow? Check, once every two instances
• Getting down by standing too close to the Ghost Eaters and eating multiple Vapor Blades? Check, that happens without reflect
• Getting down because I get focused by every single elite Ascalonian Ghosts while all my skills are on cool down? Check, that happens in every AC p2, I know.

If you still think sub 80 are garbages

3: a long duration block. If it blocks projectiles, it will blind the target.
5: a mini rush, 600 range, knock back and interrupt everything along its path.

Let’s see… Where to start with…

My ranger
My warrior
My would-be revenant
My elementalist
More elementalist
My necromancer
My mesmer
My (charr) thief

I do: they’re great for roleplaying as monks.
Gonna make a set with monk runes, staff and monk outfit. Love the aesthetics too, they look badkitten.

No more healer elly :/

Btw, help me pick up a name. Should I use my necro’s from gw1 or one of my monks’?
I’m considering buying an identity repair kit for my warr, steal her name (it was my monk’s) and put it on my revvie. Wurf!
I mean, when I have enough money <.<

P.S. 2 more good things: staff 3 is amazing and I love staff 5 against a wall.

I love staff so far. They should ditch the healing on staff 4 and make it a power-based weapon instead of sword. With Ventari Tablet, we don’t really need any healing from weapons.

Staff 3 even blocks the knock down attack of harpies, it’s funny. Most of the utilities have such a high cast time that it’s annoying to play.

For once, revenant will top necro as the best “phiw” class. This class is also kitten hard to play.

Trolls at their best!

Edit: Gosh, it actually happened (shake head).

deSade.9437:

Just los her and do the chicken dance around the crates… fairly easy on warrior.

You mean the mating ritual of a rooster? Bonus with Italian breeds.

No, u cant play feedback on the wall, but it’s still higher priority so somehow it covers the wall on wall and Lupi doesn’t get one shot.

It was funny because there was a troll guard in our lfg that purposely walled Lupi when we had specifically told him not to do so. My mesmer friend trolled him back with her feedback and time warp :p

Is that hatred guy still playing and kicking sellers?

holy **** laharl where have you been all this time

Hey, been console gaming mostly. Currently playing Destiny, you can solo dungeons but sadly you can’t sell them. I hopped on gw2 last night but my toons are horribly outdated. Was just looking for build and dps rotation info. Good to see some familiar faces!

Wow, Teach!!!

Shoot me a message if you see me around.

Play mesmer and place Feedback on top of the wall on wall. Hahahahahahahahaha…

Your English is not bad but it’s not obvious in the same way you think it is. A glance at the text also raises my eyebrows a bit. Reworded:

“A lot of bad players asked to become mentors”

Thank you for the help, Gaile!

Today I joined a fotm 50 pug. The group already had 2 wars and 2 ele, being the third ele, I thought “Sure, why not?”. Then one of the warrior started to nag about one of the party member should relog to guard. So I cheekily told him “But ele is OP!”
-“Only if you can survive.”
-“Oh, surely yes!”

At the second fractal, we got Harpy. I swapped to dagger/focus and helped the group to kill off the first three Harpies. At this point, the warrior started yelling “No no, we cannot do this. One of you need to log guardian right now.” As we proceed to continue climbing upward, the warrior without moving away from his spawn location declared “If no one logs guard, I’m gonna leave this group.” He was completely mortified watching the group struggling and ignoring him. Sensing that the group didn’t provide enough damage mitigation as it should, I decided to save my utilities to skip the last few steps of the puzzle and took refuge in the inner room. By the time I came back to the chat, the warrior had already flied away with a short note “bb”.

The story would have just ended here but it did not.

One of the staff ele failed the skip and died next to the couple of harpies stationed at the top floor. As I was close by, he targeted my character and switched to /say chat:
- “HEY. Heal me.”
As I tried to kill off the harpy threat, I told him “sec”. After rezing him up, I told him:
- “You know you’re rude? Asking for rez without even say please or ty”
He replied:
- “You know I just said heal me, I didn’t ASK YOU. You also ignored me and were busy typing. You are making a big deal out of nothing.”
- "So where’s my “thank you”?"
- “Thank you. And where is the apology for letting me die ?”
- “Wow, you should log a guard if you think people have to babysit you. Such entitlement.”
- “Like I said making a big deal out of nothing. Dude, you whine about wanting me to say thanks. I even gave it to you. I could have waked up though (without your res)”.
- “Alright, I’m sorry for healing you. Next time you walk back.”

And I held true to my words for the whole fractals.

That moment when your dyes match! #Happy

Doing in group several times. He doesn’t miss it.

I think you can pm GM Proheal or Shazbawt to see if they can take any actions.

If you think a dev has to play meta and speed clear everything in a demo, then u need to showcase it with a QA team, not the person who designs a map. Speaking of meta, I believe Hugh and Grouch are good players.

^ Probably me. Idgaf, really, when I only want gold in the end of that dungeon. There are times when my guildies and friends are too elitist to accept a free giveaway, too. So I just take whatever pugs no matter what and how they contribute.

People shouldn’t have even started selling dungeons. If someone is unable to complete a certain dungeon, they should just not get the rewards from it.

You sorta just explained exactly why people DO sell dungeons.

You mean why people do BUY dungeons?

I actually have the feeling that they know what they’re doing, they just don’t know what the general players are capable of.

Let me tell you guys a story of my friend.

My friend is a very competent player. He does fotm 50 daily for the rewards, and he never turns down a friend’s request for help with 50 even though it means he has to repeat it without the daily reward. It’s not a big deal because he can sometimes sell his spot if the last boss is Jade Maw or Molten Duo. Whenever I sell the slot for my friend, I always send back to him the full amount of gold. He does 20% of the work like everyone else in the party. The daily reward costs 20 g. Everyone else gets the daily, he gets 20 g. It’s fair. Logic.

Then it happened.

He helped another friend of his and her guildies with their fotm 50. He asked to sell his slot. They happily accepted. After selling his spot, they divided the gold equally and send him back 5 g. Astonished, he asked, “Hey guys, everyone did their share of work yet everyone else gets their rewards plus their extra 5 gold. Why do I receive… only 5% of the rewards for 20% of the group’s work?” They ignored him. Worse, the group convinced his friend to give up her slot to sell and then divide the rewards among themselves again. To which, his friend happily accepted. Worst, they felt it’s way too profitable and asked him to do another tier to sell. To which, he replied, “Hey guys, I need the daily rewards, so I’ll stay. If you want to sell your slot, I will help you and I will send you the full amount of gold. If we had low-man it, I would divide the extra slot equally among ourselves. But because you give up your daily, you deserve to get paid the full amount of your effort.” And the deal fell out. They got angry, they thought he was greedy and he had attitude. They couldn’t stand it. They were so angry to accept how the KITTEN GREEDY THEY ARE.

Gosh, internet people who readily sponge off others are the absolute KITTEN – KITTEN – KITTEN worst!

It’s like the extra bonus in Nightfall Mission. Pull my hairs if I ever fail something. Would love more time restraint gambits as well.

They took like no time at all if you did them on every release. It was new content. It seemed like a waste not to do it.

I couldn’t bring myself to do it on each of them /shrug.

They are actually quite fun challenges. I’m impressed at how they manage to make it do-able in a noob way (camping range) and raging difficult in a leet’s way (do all achievements at once plus melee man-mode). I like them

Aside from that Jumping Achievement. KITTEN IT!

You had just touched the door of a tryhard unharmed. Welcome back!

You poke it where it hurts the most. Wow!

Mesmer was, is and will never be in the same league with Ele without reflect. I’m sorry.

5% is beyond self-comforting and bordering self-disillusion.

The current game has a good variety of styles and I really like that. Try mix and match different sets, and you may find what you are originally missing.

In addition, medium skins aren’t just about trench coat.
1. DC Heroes style
2. Victorian equestrian style
3. Random fantasy style

deSade: OH MAI GAWD!!! Iris pings me some weird stuff again. I must check it out! For Fashion. Someone takes the hammer, I must try this new skin out!!!

I was under impression that you have a good chance to find a duo partner for selling dungeons in a hardcore PvE guild. Maybe I’m wrong, maybe it was just a thing with selling Arah a year ago. Oh wait…

@frifox: look at u ;o

Mesmer is really good in TA Aetherpath, especially with selling the achievements and interrupting the final boss (it puts his massive slam into a bigger cool down and makes it way easier to melee).

Teef gets kits? Wut? Wut did I miss? Well, Engi has (infinite) blind and Necro does not? What is the chance of alternating blind and picking up the hammer? Oh nvm, engi >>>> necro as always. Let’s just make others double stack or triple stack condi by re-picking up the hammer.

Took me an hour to babysit my guild group through SE p2 with Teamspeak. No wipe. But the pressure is tremendous. My throat was sore from micromanaging each member of the group.

Godspeed.

No one asked him to run the hammer to hit the seal. Even running it from seals to seals, up the stair, or just picking up to smash the chest seal is next to impossible with this guy.

Also, in my group, I always make sure to pull the aggro constantly so the the hammer carrier never gets hit by any mobs. There is only one (targeted) mob at the far seal (left or right, I don’t remember), so it is pretty reasonable for anyone to run the hammer.

spoj.9672:

But then the problem resurfaces once masteries come out. :P

I like the idea of adding them to hobby mastery. Or the daily dungeon chests. Or just increase the drop rate in boss chests.

Giving an amount of shards every time we complete Hobby Dungeon Explorer is a good idea.

If you want to argue about it, take it to the Mesmer forums.

Lol, since when people get to decide who can post here and what can be discussed?

Getting shot down in 2 forums is better than 1

:D

The context is mildly different in two forums though. I find the class subforum is generally more lenient in what kinds of PvE mentioned and more open on creative uses of certain niche skills/traits/strategy. The dungeon forum is generally more about whose kitten size is longer what is the most optimal in an organized group run than what is acceptable outside those settings. Even fun tidbits like Arcane Precision or Phantasm Distortion (pre-patch) are only shared through words of mouth and not on the public venue like this forum anymore.

My stance is everyone is entitled to his opinion. If you don’t want to continue the discussion, then leave, instead of dictating the one who opens the discussion to leave. It’s rude.

The worst elitist pug is when I enter fotm with necro and get kicked despite being better than all of them

demn girl, it just have happened again

Last night, my fotm 40 exploded with an engi who argued with my friend and I. He had never picked up the hammer during Cliffside and stated that he needed “kit swap to survive”. So when we pointed it out how the group was just basically pushing the task to only two guys to repetitively pick up the hammer and pull, he defended himself with how he has practically “carried” the group with superior DPS and constant healing with his water field. And how we should be ashamed to bring the two useless classes, ranger and necro, to our advertised “experienced zerker” group. The guy is an disillusioned sad joke that was spoonfed by metabattles and DnT guides. Haiz…

-Deleted-

Just a ruse. He can still be glitched like normal at 50. Meh.

It gets bugged easily. Otherwise it’s a decent challenge.
