Guild Wars 2

I only have a duplicate for warrior….and it’s because I wanted a Charr warrior, then wanted to swap back to my Norn. The only reason my Norn hadn’t been deleted was because it had 500 artificer/armorsmithing…No way I was doing that again. And my Charr has 500 huntsman…..I really should’ve crafted on one character :/

You’re right. They’re not rats. They’re potatoes with teeth.

Excuse me >:(

Uhhhh . . . they’re Russian potatoes! Not Irish! So, you’re safe.

I’ll give you a pass on this one…but I’m watchin you….

zengara.8301:

Windsagio.1340:

If you’re selling then that’s the end of the discussion. Arenanet has all but said that they don’t intervene on the behalf of path-sellers..

So let me get this right…. based on a clear scam which violate the in-game policies, they dont interviene in it? Like let it be another point of a game they do not take any responsebillity for and say that they dont want to do anything about it even though having full control over the game ?

8. PROHIBITED AND IRREPARABLY HARMFUL ACTIVITIES CONCERNING NCSOFT

You acknowledge that You may not, without signed written consent from a legally authorized representative of NCSOFT, do any of the following:

d) Use, or provide others with, any “hack,” “cheat,” “exploit” or “mod”;

throwing out responsibility in their own game?

The problem with your argument is what the two players did is not actually conflicting with the terms of service. An in game scam just by kicking another player does not count as a hack, cheat, exploit, or mod. Interactions between players that do not move outside the legally binding terms of service are not ANETs responsibility. If you got scammed, like others have said report them and move on, and when you try to sell a dungeon I advise using friends/guildies to hold 2 spots so this kind of thing doesn’t happen.

RoseofGilead.8907:

You’re right. They’re not rats. They’re potatoes with teeth.

Excuse me >:(

then explain your point

Items in the game don’t have a cap on how many you can acquire in your inventory save a few I might be forgetting

The point of your thread was asking why ANET is ignoring Pvp/Wvw players by only making the portals accessible in PvE. My answer is the method Anet is providing to give access to their PvE beta. If you read my first comment you’ll notice I said when they get closer to beta for their WvW map they’ll open access to the WvW community. You may have forgotten they already gave us a whole day of gameplay for the beta of the PvP map. All is left is the WvW map’s beta and again i’ll repeat this beta is most likely PvE content, therefore the context of how it’s given out is for PvE

It’s an account bound item which is not unique so yes

Wrong. Scarlet’s mobs were popping up in random locations across almost all the maps. Mordrem have a specific point of interest and that is taking key locations such as Fort Salma and Concordia. Also the forts in Silverwastes. The mordrem leech through waypoints. As I said already unless you want the mordrem occupying Bay or Hills and you have to fight them to even take a keep you owned back instead of your normal WvW combat rotations, feel free.

There’s no context for that to happen with the current threats of the LS though. Unless you’d rather the Mordrem take over towers/keeps and you have to fight PvE mobs to take them back.

The beta is for content revolving around Mordremoth/Maguuma….When you find Mordrem to fight in Wvw/PvP let us know..
Maybe when they come closer to the Wvw map beta that’s when they’ll open it up to Pvp/Wvw sources

Let me start off by saying OP: Your first mistake of writing this post was assuming GW2 was going to be like GW1. You will find countless examples and explanations denoting that the two games are not to be compared in gameplay

For someone who’s had the game since launch and is claiming they know what they’re talking about…..a majority of your explanations seem like you just bought the game…“Naga people” like Bubi said…Dude you played GW1 the “Naga people” were Krait in both games. Orrian zones that you’re talking about are relatively easy to maneuver if you don’t aimlessly wander around and pull half the map to yourself like you claim to be overwhelmed. The game is made to be taken at a casual pace, so play it that way and your experience as “a veteran player” (that I still don’t see) will be easier

deSade.9437:

And the whole fractal collection!
GAAAAHHHH! Sorry.

Imagine the rage everywhere >.>

You know that they haven’t gone over the ranger specialization or changes in depth right

HoT is a physical box.

Which means its not going to have a release date announced without 3-4 months of advanced notice to retailers. August is now the absolute earliest and even that gets less and less likely every day.

Can’t say I remember the last time I saw a physical box for a PC exclusive game. Maybe it’s just not a thing here anymore but viable other places.

I think we’ll get more info for E3, even if it’s just Beta dates.

1. I bought GW2 in its boxed copy.
2. Read this. https://help.guildwars2.com/entries/105801626-Guild-Wars-2-Heart-of-Thorns-FAQ

you’ll be able to buy it digitally or get boxed editions at retail stores.
The fact that they haven’t revealed a pre-order date for a product that will be in retail stores is a little fishy to come out in August

No need for me to go over what Miku already said but the main issue I can touch on OP is you wanted a “middle of the road” build. Honestly a middle of the road build between tankiness and DPS offers nothing for your team that would be worthwhile. In ideal scenarios you don’t need any tankiness at all, just an understanding of encounter mechanics.

Turk.5460:

Did this previously have a longer cast time? I mean, I’m still kinda new to Warrior, but it doesn’t seem to have a cast time long enough to warrant that kind of strategy. I feel like I’d be getting “obstructed” more often than not while trying this strategy.

Pin down actually had a shorter cast time it was pretty much instantaneous. It had no real notice of being cast except a small flash on the warrior’s bow string before it fired it pretty much looked like a regular attack. ANET raised the cast time to make it more noticeable considering how good of a CC ability it can be

Tomerant.2701:

Seriously, what’s the lore behind having no mounts :P ? It’s stupid.

I wish they could just delete every kitten waypoint and that “blurry portals” between zones and just give us random stuff to ride.

I wanna go here? LOADING
Ohh champ spawned there? LOADING
Look! Another champ and blue tag!! LOADING
Ok, time to salvage and sort stuff in bank! LOADING

The humans and Sylvari have no creatures large enough in their natural regions to use as “mounts”. There is and never was lore related to mounts in the GW universe

These “blurry portals” allow players to experience faster and less strenuous gameplay as well recognizing each area as an individual “zone”

You want to go across the map quickly to join in on an event right? Nope you have to run all the way there with your mount now and the event might end before you get close enough (think about what you type please)

You expect anet to give us one complete open map right? Because you’re aware how much stress that would put on their servers and our computers for all the LOADING we’ll have to do on this massive map.

The world is small enough as is with enough potential for players to use swiftness. Mounts won’t do anything productive since how many times does the average player stop to enjoy the scenery when going from say Lion’s Arch to Citadel of Flame? Wait for it….Waypoints!

Unless you 100% absolutely have to use a ranged weapon which is very few cases in dungeons/fractals, Greatsword builds will always come out on top in terms of dps. (and if you’re the only warrior you should be using PS/EA or at least EA if you have a might stacking ele). Like Miku already said above me, Longbow has the potential to offer dps, might stacking, and decent CC for those small times you ever need a ranged weapon.

Currently we warriors are glorified power support might stackers. If you want to use a high dps ranged weapon build, play a LB ranger. They hit harder than your rifle in any scenario, even with a melee weapon.

Rampager looks nice on paper, but you’re going to be subpar and a crutch using it for a power build, and other sets like sinister are better for a condi build. My advice is zerker ascended, and exotic condi like sinister or rampager if you really want it, but don’t use a combination armor for an either or build. You’re splitting too much potential.

The Anniversary party they held in August of 2013…Tequatl Rework, the introduction of Ascended Gear……The Queens Jubilee. This was all part of the Anniversary (around that time at least). They didn’t hype up the 2nd birthday as much but for a 10 year anniversary I’m expecting at least a tidbit of ANET goodies

Gern.2978:

Lampshade.7569:

Well you said you hate the warrior meta but only focused on the fast hands build. When I get tired of pure axe I go pure gs and back.

If you want a reason why your build underperforms, it’s the ferocity change. 30/0/0/10/30 used to be old meta before the critical damage nerf.

Also, no solid PvE build anywhere ever will involve the sigil of intelligence.

I don’t know what the “fast hands” build is.

I still don’t understand how my build is complete garbage as you both are saying. I am consistently doing 30k damage at the end of every rotation (which is a pretty short rotation) and doing high damage with the axe auto-attack ( anywhere between 10k and 16k.) Yes, I would do more damage with the meta, but that isn’t the point.

You said it yourself, you do more damage with the meta. Currently the warrior meta splits off in two general directions. You can do the more self sustained DPS build (6-5-0-0-3 or 6-6-0-0-2), or you can go off into Phalanx Strength. There is a reason that the meta exists, because it is more effective. With Phalanx Strength possibly you won’t do as much damage as your build, but it will be close, and you’re providing the rest of your team with higher DPS potential. If you want to outwardly hate against “The Meta” and make your own build that you knowingly admits is weaker, you’re acknowledging that you’re a crutch. You asked for our thoughts, and our suggestions are really don’t use your build, unless you honestly don’t care for what anyone else thinks.

As others have said already, you can’t line up WvW builds in Spvp because different sets have different stat caps. You can’t have the same exact stats from all your pieces of gear, runes, food, etc identically. Only way to test a WvW build efficiently is to make it

I’m just gonna leave this here…

Anet hasn’t given us any information on this so I wouldn’t believe what you hear without hearing or reading it from Anet themselves

Honors in Applied Jumping – A rememberance to my happy days in the world of SAB
(no this is not a BRING BACK SAB post I use that title on all my toons >.>)

Most groups expect players to skip cutscenes, but that’s usually in explorable mode and with a group “accepting everyone” for story mode, I would think as well that they would’ve waited. Different groups vary just gotta find the right one

ReV.6097:

I need a weeks notice, so I can book that month off for SAB time. xD
And

1. This thread shall not be on the second page

Which is why we need more to talk about. Devs probably avoid this page because there’s hardly anything but us complaining, but very little of constructive info towards the future of SAB and what we want to see.
I saw the centipede creature in the data mining picture, and with my earlier post/picture, it’d be good to discuss world 3.

In fact, I only saw 4 new levels in the picture, meaning, that either the world 3 is the last one before the last boss fight , or that they haven’t a full idea of what to add to world 4 in the future.

It’s possible that they are working on a world 3 and 4 but the maps haven’t been included in the picture. Take my example of this after world 1. You couldn’t originally see world 3 zone 1 (that we think it is). I have hope for two full worlds, whenever they arrive.

I wish they had included this in the patch notes otherwise it’s all here say :/

http://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/3123gk/ranger_runes_no_longer_work_with_mini_pets/

Inside this link is a link to another forum thread. I want to know if there’s an official ANET confirmation. I don’t want people using them if they have no effect.

Not sure if this is the right area for this, feel free to move it where it should be
I’ve read multiple threads and a reddit post about the changes to Superior Runes of the Ranger, did a test of my own which confirmed to me at least what I had read. Is there any official notification or was it just a completely stealth change?

Keep in mind they also pointed out Aerin was someone who disconnected himself from the dream and was able to be influenced by Mordremoth. To our awareness Trahearne is still very connected to the Pale Tree and her protection. (As far as we know). Honestly though if Trahearne ended up being a traitor…I think we’d all be very happy

Nuddsy.3219:

Yeah i mean Adelburn only used the foefire to create an unrelenting army of ghosts which the charr are still fighting to this day, totally not worth mentioning i guess. On a side note legends can be viewed greatly in their last moments much like King Jalis who is known for performing the Rite of the Great Dwarf. To answer your question why i designed something that will never happen is simple, i enjoy creating ideas. You might not regard the legend as feasible which is fine, just try to take away some of the core ideas i suggested.

While he created an unending army of ghosts, keep in mind that this army was completely converted against their will, and forced to be enslaved to the foefire for all eternity. The ghosts themselves do not know that they are like this, they still believe they are alive during the war. If they were coherent about it, they would probably all leave and scorn Adelbern, who is in no way Legendary for what he did. He’s just a big selfish, stubborn, blind kitten.

EDIT: The last King of Orr was named King Reza @Ralanost. His Vizier is the one who sunk Orr into the sea, similar to Adelbern but on a much greater scale. If we’re talking about feats of madness I’d take the Vizier over Adelbern.

Ramethzero.3785:

I do wonders in there with sw/sw + LB full rabid. As long as you have good condition clearing, I burn down mobs there pretty easy as a solo player.

The only downside of running full condi is not all the mobs are husks and you might not tick enough dps to get tags on mobs that aren’t husks.

darkaheart.4265:

oh wow lol this are your answers though so when you hit lvl 80

1. for wvw youre going to be basically force to use greatsword for mobility. other than that gs/hm or gs/axe s are the main wvw weapons

2. for stances, most people use Berserker Stance, Endure Pain and Balanced Stance or Dolyak Signet….unless you go with a different build like shouts for example

3. for pve just go all berserker [i dont really do pve so idk any best build for the traits] and for pvp shoutbow is probably the best build for that

You forgot Hammer with Sword/Warhorn as a build for WvW

The dungeon bugs >.>

While this does not apply to me involving the Arah Story mode it does influence my guildies and unless they speak up on here I can thank you for them! Thanks Bobby!

I told you guys this would spiral…..

The riots will go on forever…forever…ever…ever

segman.3560:

I’m an atheist too and this is serious bussiness. I dare to say that religious groups are making special game departments to cover mmos and other online games to spread misinformation about imaginary entities.

Words like god, allah or other weird names should be covered by profanity filter.

Players trying to spread their religion views on public chat should be banned for breaking game rules. This is not a place for religious or political agitation.

I’m terrified how common is talking about gods these days with 0 awareness of ppl that don’t believe such things. I hope this case will be taken care of and we will see no more agitation on public chat. The possibility of mental breakdown is very serious in this case.

I’m sorry to say but in their eyes, saying “God doesn’t exist” should also be covered by a profanity filter. Again, read my prior post, players are free to express what they want as long as it isn’t offensive. And unless they’re targeting your beliefs directly in an way that insults you or offends you, which none of this should, move on with your life.

I can see this thread spiraling downwards >.>

While I am not religious myself, I have to acknowledge that not everyone shares my beliefs (or lack thereof). It’s tolerance. Everyone is free to express what they believe to be true, and you just have to be the better person to not try to shoot them down. This is a video game anyway, how much does it really matter. If indeed you express your beliefs and someone rages at you, like others mentioned above block and move on. Be the bigger man, or woman, or other.

145 happy easter!

How many times do we have to say the wings are coming back? The wings were on sale temporarily, but are coming back to the gem store at a future date…..

Even though I really wanted that collision detection, I’m glad you guys decided to let us know ASAP instead of us waiting for the patch all day thanks Gaile!

Lore wise and in game wise, it’s impossible for him to be “brought back”, at least this early (insert a few thousand years). But reworking the fight? Yeah that could use a bit of a touch up.

TheDaiBish.9735:

I can also see different glider skins being introduced into the Gem Store.

Skins aren’t pay to win

Would you care to elaborate? Considering they’ve explicitly stated there will be no new tiers of gear, no new levels, what makes you think they will ever be pay to win?

It may be similar to the dyes that haven’t been released yet. Maybe this upcoming Tuesday?
