Democracy is usually a triumph of the candidate that appeals to the dumber end of the electorate. So if Evon appeals to people who are dumb enough to waste money on Black Lion Keys.. well.. he’s going to win.

Your post is really offensive, it’s like saying that people are dumb because they don’t agree with you, I’m voting Evon because of the fractal, couldn’t care less for WP costs or BL Keys.

I’m voting for the Abadon fractal, I mean Ebon,…. Evon..?…. the charr thing.

Thank you Venirto

Can someone tell me the patch size? This kind of info would be welcome in the patch notes -.-

Glasses helm skin. All kinds, I hate the headgear in most MMOs (except in GW1) and this one isn’t an exception.

I disagree, the only way I would accept Laurels in sPvP would be if you had to choose either the pve daily or the spvp one and only got 1 Laurel per day anyway.

I bet ArenaNet is already crying because stealth should never have made it into the game and you are asking for this…

No stealth is as intended. They said thief was supposed to pick and choose thier battles.

You didn’t understand what I said. Thief’s are just a crappy assassin, they could use shadow step to choose their targets stealth wasn’t needed at all.

That can be achieved, when I first played thief I didnt use stealth at all, I used 2 pistols and I was agile. I also seen thieves with a sword & dagger that didnt use sfealth, all tney did was teleport/shadowstep everywhere, tbey were good.

The option is there.

Not the way an Assassin did, not even close, Thief was made having stealth in mind this made it weak unless he is using stealth and stealth is one of the hardest mechanics in an MMO to balance, either is kitten or OP, and Thief can go almost perma stealth already in this game.

MatyrGustav.6210:

I play thief and almost every time I try to escape I get hit while im invis,, but im pretty sure the other guy doesnt know hes hitting me. Ive died a few times in stealth, but they think I got away, so they stop looking so I heal and get up lol.

Trust me stealth is balanced, if the thief is escaping from you, then you won the match. Thieves are escape artist that are “MEANT” to pick and choose thier battles.

When you get hit players can see a number for the damage they did on you. No stealth isn’t balanced at all specially when using P/D.

I bet ArenaNet is already crying because stealth should never have made it into the game and you are asking for this…

Basically the only items that should be account bound aren’t like Legendary weapons and precursors lol

grabbed 2 engineer boxes, got a lvl 79 rare pistol and rifle of perception with cleric stats.

So you spent 10 laurels on 2 boxes and got 2 items?
1 box=5 laurels=2 itmes/box (per wiki)http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Laurel_merchant

How do you have 10 laurels to spend, or was it you spent 5 laurels on 1 box and got 2 weps?

What was the lvl/rarity of the rifle?

5 laurels = 2 boxes

I hate RNG and this boxes have to many of it, will keep my laurels for the amulet and the mini cat….

Can’t Gems be won trough paid PvP? If yes and if the amount is big enough that the price of the tickets don’t pay for the Gems won, my answer is no, the expansions should be paid with money only.

Florgknight.1589:

Precursers are not a problem. They’re optional, you can get skins just as nice as legendaries without spending 600g

Yes they are, they can only be acquired trough crazy RNG, some get lucky and get it in the 1st try and some will never get it, buying it from the TP isn’t an acceptable option, period.

And Legendary weapons being sold in the TP is just ridiculous they should be account bound.

All crafting disciplines are only useful for leveling your character and to make Rares to break into ectos it’s sad but its the reality.

Avan.1540:

I’ve noticed that accounts of laurel behavior don’t seem to be consistent:

I have 9 alts, and I’m a little put off that all of my alts are calendar gated to item acquisition as a single character would be… if that’s actually the case. However, when I got yesterday’s daily, I got a laurel, which I could then see in all my character’s inventories. Now, I’m not entirely sure, but, this may imply that you automatically get a laurel for every alt… or that its a single account-wide laurel. Has anyone been able to figure out of which this is the case?

On the other hand, I have seen accounts of people’s laurels only showing up on one char, but not the others, so, I’m not sure if that’s a bug or what.

its a single account-wide laurel

Title still works but the bar is at 0

Laurels would be useless for me if it wasn’t for the cat mini and the ascended amulet… kinda disappointed with the rewards (didn’t Colin say that the rewards from the screen shot weren’t final? Guess they where…).

If the chests stack it is good thing I guess ^^

expect some classes with lower DPS to not be allowed in certain dungeon paths (Ranger I’m looking at you) really some encounters are impossible to do without decent DPS, like path 2 CoF for example. Someone here said that he did AC with some low lvl party members and that it wasn’t impossible, sure it isn’t but I doubt people will wan’t to take 2 hours instead of 15/20 min in a path. This will require a massive nerf in the encounters.

I did AC all 3 paths last night with a 35, a 47 a 58 and a pair of 80’s and it didnt take all that long. a powerhouse of decked out 80s would have been faster but only by 5-10 minutes per path and thats mostly because I’d expect the 80s to know the run (2 of the lowbies got their AC explorable cherry’s popped and needed a bit of hand holding) Anybody that feels the need to exclude all but the top potential DPS are either very impatient or just compensating for sub par play as in most cases better play will still succeed in a reasonable time frame.

Sorry but I don’t believe that a team of lowbies can do AC that fast from the experience I have had with them in pugs, that just wont happen period. The DPS isn’t a question of doing a dungeon faster, its a question of doing it or be stuck and quit in some cases like I said.

FoW, UW, Urgoz, The Deep (and make some new ones), bring back elite missions.

1) No, whats the point in increasing the lvl cap and having lvl 80 gear? <.<"
2) No
3) No
4) Yes, if by “equal playing field” you also include the same number of players in both sides
5) Doesn’t it already have?
6) Yes, it doesn’t do anything anyway…
7) …
8) Depending on what you want yes it can be a legendary grind.
9) Aside from the Precursor Mystic Forge RNG no.
10) No
11) Yes but just because of Colin sexy smile or I would quit the game >xD lol
12) No, all I was expecting was already confirmed to not be in the next 3 months updates…

SteepledHat.1345:

I’m sorry but there is some really hard fail in here when it comes to understanding probability theory.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Independence_%28probability_theory%29

You should have posted the “Rolling a die” example ^^
here:

“The event of getting a 6 the first time a die is rolled and the event of getting a 6 the second time are independent. By contrast, the event of getting a 6 the first time a die is rolled and the event that the sum of the numbers seen on the first and second trials is 8 are not independent.”

I don’t know if people will understand this but there it is lol

Talindra.4958:

Hello again guys/gals
I have one more question. I have the capacity (Pow Tou Vit) and i like to make the secondary stat the same (PTV) should I be using the recipe for offensive or defensive slot?
That is, do I use Crystals or Philosopher’s Stones if I want to have PTV as well?

Thanks in advance for help.
:)

this won’t change the basic stats, you will get the same pow/tough/vit, the difference from offensive and defensive is that you can add an infusion that can give 5 stat points to a certain stat, example:

offensive – 5 Power or 5 Precision or 5 Condition damage
defensive – 5 Healing Power or 5 Toughness or 5 Vitality

Don’t know how it is now but I think the offensive infusions used to be more expensive to make.

PS: “Infused” and “Infusion” isn’t the same thing don’t get confused.

skill #1 is I little OP I think, #3 we already have poison on shortbow what I would like to see in a DPS bow is Confusion (like 5 stacks of that kitten lol) -

The Anomaly kicks kitten my fav focus in the game working on the skill points to get one for my Guardian x’D

I don’t know enyone that would pay that for a Legendary weapon even if they had the gold to do it it would be cheaper to make it than buy it from the TP. (a lot cheaper…)

The only thing I wan’t is the Scavenger Hunt (or increase the chance for a precursor for Mystic Forge to a reasonable amount -.-)

Letifer.4360:

PS: if the lodestones are that expensive blame the stupid buyers that are willing to buy them for insane prices if they didn’t prices would drop, no one likes to see his items not selling in the TP.

That’s not how supply and demand works. If the supply is low and the demand is high (like for lodestones) the price will stay high, period. There are thousands of people who each need 100 charged lodestones to make Sunrise, but at this moment there are only 781 on the TP. Demand = 100,000’s, if not millions (since they are used for many other things), Supply = 781. This means only the richest of the people who want them will get it. “People not buying them” is not a solution, only way to change the ridiculous price is to increase supply.

800+ and there are cores to, and the price has fallen 1g since I last checked, the price isn’t justified but go on keep buying them at that price that’s what you get for the “I wan’t it now” thought, don’t expect ANet to do anything about that in the next months judging by their take on the current market.

Wait a minute you only got 7 exotics out of 200 rares? That seems like there might be a bug there, you should have somewhere around 15-20% chance of making an exotic from 4 rares (lvl80). But with 200 rares that’s a big enough sample size to tell something is wrong. But your original chances with lvl80 rares to get a precursor were slightly better than 1/1000.

its 15 to 20% chance per combine, hence, every 4 rares gives a 15-20% chance at exotics, so on average, at 15% every 26 rares gives you an exotic. Of course, thats if you have consistent performance with the average, if your unlucky it can be way worse.

15% or 20%? 5% is a big difference… and I would like to see where you got that data because as someone else said I was around the 11% and that is ridiculous lol

don’t freak out man, it’s really simple. Basically the percentages have been found to be between 15-20% chance. Your example was on the lower end, meaning it was just bad luck. But if we preformed the same test maybe 20 (with about 200 rares and etc.) times you’d see the chance of getting the exotics to be between 15% and 20%. In short you had some bad luck that put you below the average.

I’m not freaking out I just made a question, and this isn’t the 1st time I do this and have to say this is the most exotics I have ever got lol Those numbers aren’t even close so yes I would like to see that research.

Priority should go to Scavenger Hunt/another way to get a precursor.

and then the current materials will go even higher in price? Charged lodestones at 10g a piece? No thanks. And if you think Anet will make a welfare system for everyone get an easy precursor without considering how that will impact the current cost of the materials you are kidding yourselves.

I honestly think there might be new legendaries if they make the scavenger hunt, as those will offer the crappier legendaries, as it should be given it’s easy access to get a precursor.

Well I doubt that ANet would just give players the crappiest precursors that would make the community feel trolled and probable many would rage quit the game I know I would consider that after so much time waiting to make my legendary and only missing the precursor.

7 plus the one from the last combine = 8. This wasn’t my 1st time doing this and I can tell you this is the most exotics I have ever got from the forge lol

I thought the definition of Ranger was easy kill :/

Renegade.6325:

You got 1 rare dagger from 4 exotics?

my mistake, it was 7 exotics, for a total of 2 exotic combines and ended up with 1 in the end that I have posted in the TP.

My last attempt:

200 lvl 80 rare daggers gave me 7 exotics that I used again in the forge, ended up with 1 rare dagger and 1 exotic… lesson learned not gonna waist any more time trying to make a legendary until ANet opens their eyes to this RNG bullkitten. (and no, I’m not gonna buy a precursor from the TP even if I had the gold to do so).

Anyway happy new year everyone (except the for the person responsible for this crap -.- lol)

Hmm, I just made the Lidless Eye and was planning on crafting the Eye of Rodgort some time in the future. Thanks for posting this. I would have transmuted the Lidless Eye, while farming up the Rodgort mats.

Does the same thing happen to a legendary precursor? Would it affect the future recipes for the Prototype Fractal Capacitor back items?

I am wondering if a ticket could be created to assist you… or possibly a suggestion to developers. There are very very few stepping stone mystic forge recipes, sucks to lose the chance to make a skin upgrade when you are just tailoring an item to your needs.

This is true to ALL named weapons needed to make another item.

a little smoke aura and some smoke/fog footprints would go well with it imo.

a long long time ago healing spring was the only heal skill I used, now 99% of the time I’m using heal as one and I have to say don’t miss it at all.

PS: only use healing spring in certain situations like when all party is in the same spot like the hammer fractal but even there I change my skills again after the fire part lol

Hey. Just thought I’d put in my two cents, which is that these people are wrong and that glass cannon is fine on rangers for dungeons. The key is not to die, obviously. If you want to have an easier time, you can use knights or some other more tankish armor, but if you want to be the best damage ranger you can be, you just need to learn to survive without any defense. Pvp is a different story, but we are not talking about that. (If you want to talk to me about it in game, my username is Not David.)

See this is the problem people keep giving advice that glass cannons work fine in dungeons. It doesn’t because your made of glass! If you get downed in 3-4 hits your no good to your team no matter how high your DPS is. You need survivability because tanking is impossible in this game. You need to be able to take a few hits so that you can either knockback or get out of trouble and heal thats how you stay alive. It’s called survivability. Go run SE/CoF hell even CM. It is SO easy to tell when you have a glass cannon build on some one because they go down repeatedly. Doesn’t matter if you have dps you can dodge what max 3 attacks before you get hit? This kind of advice is why there are so many scrubs running dungeons now a days.

Build : 30/25/0/0/15
Armor and Accessories : Full berserker with Ruby Orbs

Completely disagree with you, if you are getting hit that much you are doing something wrong, its not just about stats, if your build sucks it doesn’t matter at all, that and you have to know how to use your class and its skills.
