Guild Wars 2

Just want to add to the chorus of how frustrating this encounter is. This is the definition of a design that is hard just for the sake of being hard, not because it challenges players to get better. There’s no pattern to learn or strategy to employ, your options are so limited with just the one special. You just have to get lucky. He almost always detects your bluffs, he has a ton of HP, his heals are huge, he usually blocks your heals, and once he pops his special you have one (!) turn to bluff before it’s up again. After a couple hours of trying I can say this is the first thing in the game that made me wish I had cheated while the exploit was available. That’s not a feeling I think people should have when facing content. I hope this gets adjusted.

Just found out the hard way a rather unfortunate bug with the Forge and WvW weapons. I spent some badges and gold to buy three exotic staves from the WvW vendor – an Invader’s, a Berserker’s, and a Carrion – to forge and try for The Legend. There’s no distinction between them in the merchant UI or the item UI other than the stats. However, only the Invader’s staff appears in the Mystic Forge UI. The others do not.

They should either all work, or else state which ones work and which don’t. It was very disappointing to find out after I spent my badges that I had completely wasted 2/3 of them.
