New Dungeon Rewards - Fotm Ignored?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Lucius.2140

I’d guess the loot bags from legendaries could be nice, but fractals players need some sort of income, especially considering it’s harder than any other content currently ingame. does the upcoming dungeon change include fractals? currently people get around 80s a full 48 run, which I don’t think does fractals justice.

I agree it needs some revamps, my guess is it has a different system for them actually, so the change wasnt aplicable.

About the 80s… im not sure if im lucky but between rares, tier 6 mats and cores, i always get like 3g+ from 28-48 level fractals.
Never tried 50 so cant talk about it, the people wich i do fractals dont go more than 48 since rewards dont seems to justificate the effort lol (after doing the same fractals, each more than 100 times, the fun factor isnt enough lol).

To clarify we had both QA and our internal core tests go through the content a whole bunch. The QA team focused on making sure that every profession could complete every boss (there are 12) with a reasonable level of skill and gear. The core testers mostly did what they do best and beat the pants off of the stuff we throw at them and tell us whether or not it was hard enough. I feel its worth mentioning that we would schedule tests for an hour or so and some of them would stay all day trying to beat it. But they were having fun, and that’s whats most important to me.

Are your testers league pro gamers? Because if this same group tested T4 we’re in for a world of hurt. :<

Hope that lol

You hope the gauntlet can only be done by not playing as it was intended? Ok weird.

He was refering to the testers been pros and so they can pass really hard content that most of the community cant, if you reread hes comment you will notice.
If your reading compresion is still failing, you can read the answer he give me.

Do Legendary User Impress You?

Simple question really, do seeing a person with a legendary make you go like; “Ohhh!”, are you indifferent, or another reaction?

Is there any reputation on getting one?

Would you go for it for the reputation or for the looks?

If it became harder/easier would you appreciate it more/less?

If you do appreciate something from legendaries or its users, what is it?

The legendaries look cools, aside of that yes:
In my group of friends until like 2 or 3 months, the norm was: legendary=farmer; and almost farmers arent the most skilled players… so we tried to avoid them.
Until one of my friends got one, does it, later he started to go down in the dungeons…
Not sure how to clasificate that lol.

Blinded by particle effects?

Not sure, the funny thing is that he was the more: " i only want to be in group with skilled players", i supose was karma lol.

Each day when you finish a unique path for any explorable or story dungeon, you’ll receive a bonus reward for completion—1 to 3 gold for explorable dungeons depending on their length and difficulty, 50 silver for story dungeons.

6 min for 1 gold in cof?
Or 45 min for 3 gold in arah?

Hmm.

The champs arent gonna give you extra gold anymore.

Gatiha, before you continue, there’s an edit button so you don’t post 18 times in a row (currently, your record is at 12 in a row). Now, I understand that some of your posts are long, but you can actually condense that duodecense posting to a double or triple post.

Please start doing so, it’s a pain to read through comments (which I have been doing, just not yours) and then see that one guy who posts. And again. And again. And again. And again. It’s like he’s having a conversation with himself (especially when he quotes himself, which I see much too often in these forums). Yes, people will quintuple post and quote themselves in that quintuple post not realizing that they’re talking to themselves.

Save yourself from looking like a rushing fool and slow down. Take the time to format your posts. It’s a lot better on the receiving end, trust me.

I’m responding to everyone in the thread to keep conversation going about this. Why would I make one big post trying to respond to everyone I did respond to? First I don’t even think I’d be able to add every quote of what someone said and second if you can, I don’t know how. It’s just easier to see who I am responding to.

I have a lot of fun with it, and know of lots of persons that love it, you are not one them lol. Its a litle slow, but the brutal way of it make it really a survival game .

The one shot with stealth is zone limited, and if the character disapear you can try to counter it (try to get hoy much it takes to charge, then dodge, posible 2 times lol).
I have fight against all races and i am capable of notice when the one shot atack animation comes, and when someone is atacking me.

About the start moment atacks, i can notice lol, but yes its difficult, the confusion of the crowd is part of the game mechanic for this part.

The atack and kill in the beggining, when you can respawn, allow players to stock munitions, rations, etc; preparing themselves to the later fight. The fact you can kill means this:
Im getting all you collected, you collected for me!!! (lol).
You just got a second chance , of course you are at disadvantage lol, half health and in general less items that the ones that didnt died. You died, your shame, we are letting you play. I have been able to win it after respawning, specially if it respawn you in a part like the ship (i thin you only respawn in one of thge ships, not sure) or the bar (even more lucky if theres not people lol).
I can kill you in that time as part of my strategy to change the balance of who have more rations, traps and arrows (Yeah more strategy).

You get points in that grace period, because is part of the game strategy to kill people in this part and gain advantage.

Karka has inmersion lol: Is sunset cove (karkalandia lol).
Second it means your actions has a repercusion (you will be haunted for evil spirits lol).
Third it give the dead something to do- atack or expect, etc. principally atack lol.
Forth it make the later part of the game more difficult, the survivors need to fight the things the spirits summon (karka and traps). So they dont go in a completly desolated island (i knowis survival but well is pvp masive not 1vs1 lol) that will make them get bored as hell (its alredy slow paced lol).
Fifth, since many people die in the zones with more objects to get, theres more posibilities that one of them summon a karka theere, making more difficult to get that resources to the living players.

Lately since you expected for hate (lol):
Im not gonna hate you, well posted.

This instances are easier in solo mode, the scaling is bigger than x (number of players) , seems like to compensate sinergy. Still you can do it.
Theres only 2 plunderers at the same time, the second one began to spawn at 5.30 min left, what you need to do is going behind the spawn place of the first one (like where the further mortar is) and atack and pull the plunderer, if he go away you atackhim at return (that way you dont pull more mobs), near minute 5.30 move your party to the rock at the side of the second mortar, some members need to take care of the second plunderer respawns and the others to do the first, same not pulling mobs strategy. The more problematic part is pulling the second plunderer withourt agroing a lot of mobs, you can do it witha necro pulling at the side of the rock, use fear, knockbacks, cds, paralizaton, criple and freeze them. Thats all.

It IS a PvP zone, I go there for PvP mostly. The achievement is a nice little focus to that and not the goal itself.

When people go there expecting PvP to not happen, they are kind of “destroying” the place I can PvP in which is in my opinions bad manners against me who is playing the place as it was intended.

Of course, there are people that don’t kill each other. There could be many reasons and it’s part of the fun of the place too. Maybe he’s tired of PvPing for the day and wants a short break. Maybe he’s another player like you that wants to avoid doing PvP in the place. Maybe he doesn’t want to fight here but rather is regrouping with friends further away to ambush you! I think you should kill him just in case. Or at least make him fall down that pillar so that you can go ahead alone

This one is a good example of what the game means, what roles means (morrpg lol), what pvp means; and what a jp in pvp means.

Fortunately not everyone thinks like you….a bit of human kindness goes along way. Just because it’s a PvP zone, doesn’t mean people have to forget basic decency. Someone from an opposing server actually helped me find my way near the end of the JP, and for that, I /bow to them.

This one is a good example of what human blindness, for satisfaction in consumption/complete all,means and generate: considering decency and human kindness from not killing in a pvp zone.
When you mean to kill the other since the game (game lol) allow and is focused on that (pvp lol). (Is like expecting that a sport matches is lost on purpouse by the other team or they are third grade humans).
And yes is pvp (WvW in this case), is a achivment in the pvp area. Pve in living story is the story and pve zones parts, this one isnt. Just a temporal adition to pvp content included with the living story in a pvp jumping puzle (disclaimer: pvp jp exist since the start of the game and give achivments).

Pd: im not saying that complete all means blindness, but that it can create blindness. Also in the sport example i put “like”. It isnt my first language btw.

Please dont ignore the pd, if you are gonna answer i hope one that is properly thought. Dont make me lost faith in humanity!!.

Great form to deal with him: Equip the human master signature move, bluff all time except when he has his special buff, use belch and water when he has the buff; and lately but more important: Think lol, you can have a mental count of when he activated the belch and water and plan your skills order in base of them (it not always work but helps a lot to make wining more posible).

Pd: The process and use of thinking isnt forbidden in the game (even as half of the forum community seems to believe the contrary).

It’s anti fun if you don’t like it. It’s my favorite jumping puzzle in the game. We do this with my guild, usually takes about ten people. If you can’t get ten people together on your server, don’t do it. It’s not required.

But saying only PvE people deserve jumping puzzles, so putting them in PvP is not fun because it’s not fun to you isn’t great. Dungeons aren’t that much fun to me, but I acknowledge there are people that like it.

The dungeon wasn’t designed with mobs…it was designed with traps that one side could use against the other. In other words it was designed to PvP in. And for those who like that, it’s certainly fun.

It’s anti-fun to you because you’re not a PvPer. The answer here is simple. If you don’t enjoy PvPing, don’t do the puzzle, because you really don’t have to. It’s a choice.

I did it several times this week, just to help out guildies, even on days when I already had gotten the chest. Every time I beat it it was a rush, moreso than any other jumping puzzle in the game.

Edit: You need a bunch of mesmers in that group….so you can portal people up as they fall. That’s what we do.

Its just their urge to get all the achievments… and an unbeliveable capacity to dont understand that something they dont like can be worthy to exist lol.

Lucius.2140

L2P, I don’t think I’ve ever been taken down by a meteor storm lol. 1 dodge = safety. So difficult, how will we manage?

so by your logic nothing is OP because everything can be dodged ?

By that logic a large casting time, with the fact not all the meteors hit the same spot and that is area effect, make the atack justificated; because you can not only dodge it, you can run of it… and you have to be specially “lucky” (not meaning nothing asociated with luck in reality lol) to get all the meteors on you.

Remember pvp is competitive, if you cant just move away/dodge of a aoe zone, and it have a large cast time with different spots hitting; dont complain about it be OP, because it isnt. Is just that the inability to handle something different than a short casting weak atack; and the alredy described (for Araris.7839) “ability” to go around and get hitted for all the meteors…

pd: enfatized the skill characteristics, so if someone argue this i hope he/she not describe some other skill, or go out of context in a very idiotic way… So please dont dissapoint me, I still have faith in humanity!!

I stopped reading after OP said “13k-20k damage”

It MIGHT happen. What if someone stayed in the red area instead of dodging out, ran around in the red circle and was’ hit by each of the meteors? For all we know that’s what happened to the OP. He ran around inside the red circle, didn’t dodge out and was killed. This is not only sad, but to use OPs term, ironic. Maybe a kind soul could teach this poor guy how to dodge out of red circles.

Excellent post.

I’ve been wondering about the events, in particular the event of Sanctum Sprint.
As I was participating in these events for the achievement, someone said to us “Plz winner leave no winner x2 leave plz stop winner x2 stupid noob fsxk i need acheivnmtnz” or something along those lines.

Now, seeing someone whine like this just made me want to beat him more, troll him more. But I was wondering what the general consensus was: Should we just people who want to win… win?

And is there some sort of expectation that “winner” should “leave plz no winner x2” nowadays?

Theres some expectations, but you are in your right to win when you want. If you dont win on purpose, you are doing a favor. The anormal you heard in that race mistoke the favor of letting others win, with some kind of obligation.
Personally if i heard someone said that i will send him to play old mario bross or get pingzapper… lol

First of all, this didn’t make much sense unless you read it over 3 times.

That make me laugh a lot lol, not my fault you didnt get it in first read lol.

Second of all, envy? Really? Envying what? I work for my stuffs (unlike most) and get them done. I don’t whine on forums in order to make things easier. I’ve worked for months to get what I wanted (my legendary). If I did it, why can’t others? I’m not hardcore or anything… I just understand that in life you work to get something. Now I worked for it and I see people getting it easier? Do you even know what envy means?

Sumary: it toke my effort and time, in their case less time and effort. That make you more than jelous you have envy of their case (less time and effort spent) so you feel unhappy for it.

I do not care to get these dungeon tokens. What I’m saying is why is it only 1 sided? Why is it always PvE who avoid PvP like a sickness that get their things for free or nearly? I did my dungeons because I understood (UNDERSTOOD) that legendaries are a reward for doing the game ALL AROUND. Yet, people whine about 500 PvP badges and discovering points on the maps (4 maps… 4.).

Envy? More like balance things out and stop listening to these lazy slobs.

I know thats why i put: “if you really want them,” if it wasnt for the form you put it, i will said you are just indignated for the fact that WvW people get terrible discriminated in this game, but nope lol . And yes you understood (it changed lol).
Feel free to reply lol too much for a nerdy discussion alredy im out lol

So another way to cater these casuals that don’t wanna work for anything and avoid WvW as a sickness yet people who don’t want to PvE gotta go through it in order to get legendaries, for example. Why can’t I decide to pick dungeon tokens instead of badges of honor? I hate dungeons. I don’t want to do them. And yet… Silly casual PvE game.

Basically your argument is: the wellfare of anothers is detrimental to me… Doesnt you noticed the meaning of it… Is like if your neighbor get the lotery you want him to lose his money, or if in some country people win more money and live “better”, you will wish them to have a lesser kind of income/“live quality”.

Madurate lol, also you get them too… (every 500APs any player get his/her badges) lol envidius people make the world worst…

And why should these people get given in their hands rewards that I had to work my butt off to get? That surely makes for a better world. Seeing all these spoiled brats around still whining because they want more and used to get it…

And this doesn’t solve the case of why not make it fair for everybody (both pvers and pvpers) in allowing to choose between pvp or dungeon badges? Wouldn’t that make for a better world? Come back at me when you’ve learned to make sense.

Because you genius can ask for some dungeon tokens instead of quit them their lotery (honor badges if you didnt noticed). And yes if someone has good luck with something you dont quit it to them. If is money, beuty, inteligence; none has the same and works the same and get the same, if they have some posibilities you dont quit them, you try to make others have “similar” posibilities (like your dungeon tokens if you really want them).
Thats making sense, what you are asking is: please can we all be fairly doomed… it doesnt make sense,, oh except for envy…:
“And why should these people get given in their hands rewards that I had to work my butt off to get? That surely makes for a better world.”<<< It make for them, you can be indifferent to their wellfare, be happy for them or hate them/envy them…
Guess whats your choice… lol

I understand theres lot of people whose game objective are gear, gear, gear; personally i like better gameplay and more difficult AIs for enemies, and of course the more important: history!!!.
New gear, like is introduced, make rewards only for time spent, not gaming skills. Also it make more easy actual content and i like hard things (yeah me im not talking about you and this is a forum not some axiomatic discussion).
And for the sake of inmersion: My superarchi flaming sword that is the best of the best is necesary to be replaced every year for some supersperarchi flaming sword, etc; just because theres not better way to make people thinks to get more powerfull than to get more gear. So lol.

Still i love this game and will get the ascended armor… hope some day they give us more custumization for alredy existents abilities.

Didn't Anet say GW 2 would be solo friendly?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Lucius.2140

Lucius.2140

When Anet first started to talk about GW2 they said they did away with the henchmen and was going to have a single NPC companion system, then got rid of that idea. They went on talking about how PVE was going to be solo friendly but encouraged teamwork because it’s more fun.

I guess what they meant was only the starter areas where solo friendly. In high lvl areas where a character has max out exotic armor and max out exotic weapons completing events unless they are just straight forward is impossible. Take on a champion by yourself and you’re dead in 2 or 3 hits.. To make matters worse in the high level areas like Orr I’m almost surprised to run across another player. In Orr there are certain Karma NPC I want to spawn but I know there is no chance in hell of being able to complete the meta event required alone.

I’m not saying they should make the game easy, I’m just saying it’s a bit unfair to players who want to complete an event but can’t when no other players are around or no players that are around is interested in doing it.

Also is it just me or does anyone else think champions (yes I know they are the bosses in the game) are way overpowered?

Lol, you can solo champions, even some legendary bosses (even the high level ones); but of course it take time, and if you arent good enough you are gonna die until you learn. Also be prepared to chose carefully the skills you are gonna use and your strategy.
Since they can die in solo, they arent overpowered.

Why is this skill still in the game. It removes the challenge of doing the content, punishes those who honestly do that content the way it was intended, and cheapens everything from achievements to legendaries to loot in general. This skill is singlehandedly destroying this game. I really wonder how many people would still be screaming that they have already done all of the content without this skill?

It remove the challenge for the group dont want the challenge (if they have some mesmer near and willing to help of course) , if you waqnt it you are free to do it the hard way, so it give you “options”. About loot, yeah it cheapen it a litle, not much because JP give crap in general and more people farm dungeons or World bosses (much more people), but also allow others to get the mats for a cheaper price and is really restricted (you ccant get the chest more than one day per character). And more importantly it give options and allow to do JP with friends and guildies that are bad jumping.
But more importantly, your post resumes in: I spent a lot of time doing this and so i end with a reward that has less value because of this skill, lets nerf it!!!. And of course theres alot of people that have the same problem like me so lets group!!!.

BTW the JP of Wintersday and Mad King were created so that people cant use portals or other skills (let be honests, using other skills in JP is also help to made it easier… like stability, swiftness, etc). The rest of the JP were created so that you do what you want with your skills (both class skills and player skills).

Seriusly after reading all i hope you are trying to troll people with this topic…

LOL
Normally i dont said nothing against this kind of post, but this one is incredible lol.

Stop the stealing (because that just what it is when you take a reward you didn’t earn.)

Lets begin with the more obvius: “Steal: Take other people propriety”. Your definition is of your own diccionary and language… Anyway is not what you said, you are just using badly a word so that it sound more “loudly” (its not literally loudly, in case you didnt notice).

The new jumping puzzle has just been released, and once again we see that there is no content that this skill can’t break.A few greedy people decided to create toons for the sole purpose of porting to the chest and caching in on a fast 60 silver. Since this could be repeated fairly quickly, a tidy profit could be made. Anet was quick to respond by nerfing the value of the exotic shoulder item, to the detriment of all the honest players. They didn’t nerf it enough though, as players can still collect the exotic shoulders and throw them in the mystic forge to get a random exotic armour piece.

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/info/news/Game-Update-Notes-June-25th-2013/first#post2330359 . That answer it all,, seriusly man you can be a dev or writer of science fiction novels with all the things you imaginated there…

I don’t get it. Find a way to kill a dungeon boss by bypassing his attacks and you risk being banned for exploiting. How is the rabid abuse of the portal different?

Is really not different… they need to change that part, that one is even worse that what it was the fractal Ascalon glitch. But is for the use of a not designed error in the game, isnt something planned (yeah portals in exploration and JP were planneds). Also come the all known thing about: is not about the fire, but how you use it… like in Mad King Clock Tower the banners for the warrior speed buff… So is not because of the portal skill, is a problem in a error in the game and of course people who exploit (totally different case with exploration).

It’s not just this jumping puzzle either, it’s all of them. The jumping puzzles in WvW are filled with prospective legendary wielders porting up for free badges. LA always has players calling out free portals to the jumping puzzles. It’s even offered right here on these forums (See the Goemm’s lab threads). Why is it okay to bypass this content to get free loot; loot that was meant to be earned by completing the content.

Loot that was meant to be earned if someone completed it ( someoen need to do it for the portal) and have portal or you completed it, you see is a skill that allow you help others, like your guildies… You dont like it… be my guest, but remember that the people that portal others if they stay too much time are spending their time in porting others (yeah time means FUN you lost, money, etc… hope that part is easy to get lol).

In WvW this skill was long considered a free way to take towers, keeps and even SM. Everyone accepted that mesmer sweeps were a valid part of the game. Why? Why should a simple skill allow players to bypass the walls of those towers and keeps. Why should a team be allowed to capture something virtually for free, by bypassing the impediments to that capture instead of overcoming them.

It was a error in the game that allowed the mesmers to blink in the towers, etc… if someone thought it was the game design, please rise your hand and suicide yourself, the world will be better with less dumb people… not kidding….
Other uses when the barrier is brokes and all people can go in, are normals, it allow fast transportation from side to side (in other words porting lol).

The game need a expansion or update

The actual status of the game make a good part of the people who bought it (and like the game), dont log on or really not enjoy the game much ( at least not us much as the beggining), so we need new permanent content.
Of course im not saying the game not need correct some balance issues or bugs, just that we need new things to do in the game (as i say: in the game).

It can be a huge increment in events, new dungeons, etc; or even new maps. But it needs to be of good cuality (not sunset cove cuality lol).
Been said that i dont mean more stats armor, etc to get…
Of course theres a lot of things that have been implemented in game, and a lot more that are in promised status, but its necesary ti renovate the sense of exploration and doing something new (in big scale) that the game had at the start (i mean like the first 500-1000 hours of gameplay per player…).

Pd: this isnt my first language.

Temporary content means after the time “that” content is gone, isnt acumulative and that is the problem, the game pve doesnt really grow since theres not other kind of “significative” pve updates. Try to think a litle before posting something…

The problem with Living Story is not that is temporary, is that is the only new pve content we get, that means all the new pve content is temporary. If they were making updates that aso included worthy pve content then there woulnt be a problem. Shamefully they concentrated in the living sotry, and 90% of it is crap. So the actual situation is: Log in for get your achivment and play the only new and TEMPORARY content we give you (pve of course), also spent a lot if the gem store, or you will not get our special items… great job lol.
Seriusly we need new permanent content and made at least some outfits and pets attainable via game. Lets make this topic be the more visited, etc inthe forum, so they at least give us more attention.
I salute the OP for this post. Cheers we can make the game recover the path it has at the begging!!!

Things you need to to implement

in Suggestions

1:You have done a lot of implementations but they arent enough.
Pd: this living event is better in time of realease and contend than F&F.

2: Your patchs systems is not too slow but too small for the demands of the comunity, and you need to get bigger teams, more subteams and teams for change that. At least 1.5 times more than what you anounced.

3: What you need to acelerate really fast:

>Guild halls and personal house (space) with throphies, etc.

Thropies and parts for creating them for houses and guild hall most be available via achivments, professions , new npcs, thropies of events , items like pets etc, drops, chest and other buyable things, including news for currents sellers (specially the ones availables after completing events), new events that go a litle around the thropies in all map of Tyria.

Personal house and guild halls with unique buffs you can get there.

>Achivments rewards (currents and news), more titles and derivated titles (that have as requisits other titles).

>Better loots for jumping puzle chests and also better loots for been more difficult than standar for events, jumping puzles , bosses (including dungeons bosses) and dungeons paths and level of the fractals.

>LFG system

>Better auction house AI

>Voice chat

>Better guild AI for manage and more guild bank spaces with separates rules for who can get something out of them.

>Implementation of all activities the game programed.

I recommend pet fights with pets skill points and traits to make it more complex, same for disguises ( including in both general and particular- in other words for the specific type of pet and for the especifical type of outfit).

Implement the quagan games and some hylek competition with really small speed permanent bonus for ground and swiming separetly.

Make SAB come complete.

>Some cities, faction and dungeon based city outfits.

>Make better sunset cove via more consorsium and refuges quests, that give permanent small boosts for magic find and gold find.

>Make some dungeon for the molten alliance (dredge and flame legions) that explains more about them (it lacked info) and made their showdown, with new sets etc.

>Implement all types of stats available in game for ascended.
Implement all the available types of ascendeds for fotm, laurels, WvW, and guild commendations.

>Lets us have a bestiary of things we kill that get more expanded in info the more we kill them.
Same let the rangers have their info about the pets descriptions avaiable (for the accont not only the character of course).

>Put more permanent tonics, permanent craftable stations, etc in the black lion company.
Make more permanent tonic recipes via mystic forge (example: permanent black moa tonic).

>Allow to have the tokens as collectables.

>Create a jumping puzlle currency, same for minidungeons, that allow to buy skins and ascended gear.

>Made more options for the creation of characters, and options for their voice creations.

>Revamp and made more events and activities for nearly every zone and dungeons ( you alredy did it in AC).

>Put more books in game for reading the lore and a diary with the information we get doing it.

>More vairety of enemies

>More traps types for WvW.

>More diversed (in size) pvp maps.
Tournaments for 2 and 3 people teams.
In game check of rankings.

>Guild calendary and local time.
Guild tournaments. Wars beetween guilds.

4: Try to implement that in just one update (maintaing additionaly your actual standars in updates) and you will be at the level of the community expectations.

5: After that you need to mantain not only balnce and small revamp and extra content, but also more level 80 content, examples:

>You can make the twin blade of ritlock flaming sword be reforged (via a history quest), and put a conclusion to the Foe Fire, then make the player go in history to eliminate for ever the rests of the ghosts and flaming legions in ascalon and pararel the more pacificated ascalon with actual (in instance maps lol).

>Lets us explore like a big and laberintical group of not linear minidungeons the catacombs of Divinty Reach.

>Let us enter the sylvaires dreams to fight the horros within it (at least some of them).

>Make us go to the Rata Sum inquise complex and go into a portal from them to a really big complex that allow us go to a lot of dungeons within it in the time we explore it .

>Make us go to some all dwarf ruin in the depths of a mountain as a serie of multiple jumping puzles.

Pd: all new dungeons must be for full exotic equipment and some for ascended gear too)

As you know now theres gonna be ascended amulets. The problem its only a litle similar than the problem that the ascended rings generated, before only exotics rings were crafted, now a exotic craft ring is a step, because they are cheap so a new 80 can get his exotic ring just before to go to fractals (if he didnt before 80).

Same will be with normal exotic amulets, they are cheap so you can use them as a step to ascended, the problem is that theres some crazy difficult to get buy amulets, specially rubi mystic forge amulets and of course the triforge amulet. Im not talking about a 2-4 gold amulet, but one that cost a lot of time and/or money.
Its said that legendary weapons will get better stats after the ascended gear comes to match up, actual mystic armor and weapons can be used to tranfrigurate the skins to actual or, when they are realeased, ascended gear. But triforge and suchs arent worths for the skins, but for the stats, the triforge is difficult to get, so please make some form to make that work worthy, for that i have 2 sugestions: Made current exotic rings anda mulets be ascendable via mysitic forge, or let us exchange (via a npc or panel) the triforge or mystic forge amulets for a same stats ascended amulet, adding some laurels (not all obiusly) to make the change.

Can I solo dungeons with my Mesmer main?

in Mesmer

Posted by: Lucius.2140

Lucius.2140

I can confirm you can solo SE path 3, a lot of other dungeons cant be solo not necesary for the bosses or mobs – since you can skip a lot of them and pull them, not sure in all paths- but for some dynamics or for example the burrows in ac. Still if what you want is kill the bosses alone theres a lot and you can get some nice videos in youtube. But be ready to fail a lot before been able to do it, and the time it gonna take, also some adjustments of weapons, skills and traits that you will need for every encounter, for example i needed full interruption skills to just kill the breeder of the beggining in ac, and a lot of anticondition skills to kill the spider legendary, troll is easy and i asked guildies for the rest because i need to do the bait thing. In SE path 3 the problem is the first boss try to save the dodge and put yourself the mantra that cure condition s for the bleeding.

No longer able to ress in combat?

Posted by: Lucius.2140

Lucius.2140

Thank you so much anet, finally doing a dungeon its gonna be challenge, please dont nerf anything. Also remove the ressing orbes. Right now we really not need decent team play in dungeons (i have done all of them in all paths and my Fractals team got bored after level 30, that was before wintersday patch of course – just in case someone said something like theres difficult bosses or parts).
Its apropiate to make the game difficult and get extra rewards of course, even in fractals not all people change skills per encounter, and definitivly they dont know much about combos or anythin like rotating antiproyectile skills, etc. Its anormal to get a team that can play the game properly, and actual dungeons dont make people learn it, less the “elitist” exotic gears, actually they go with a exotic gear die and respawn system make people dont learn anything, you get warriors who died like 5 or 6 times in a easy dungeon like AC or CoF, and believe me even with a alt in level 45 i can survive AC complitly (not the only oneof course theres people much more skilled than me), what we need is a higher dfficulty so people get forced to learn to play properly, and exotic gear and level 80 normally dont means they can survive instead in some case it make the user feel better and be really bad, it not gonna compensate hes “dps” if he is a pain for be revived (that happens with unskilled players), lol 90% of the elitist cant even solo a simple legendary… or stay alive in a single dungeon.

To put it simply you will be forced to learn to roll your class and to properlly work in team, if you dont like its ok quit or dont do dungeons, if you like it just said the word and theres a lot of people like me that will help you to learn, and by the gods i dont care t spent silver to make a teammate with low level earn to play the game, but for that the game need to be harder because othercase they dont need to learn much just a couple of things and the greatness of their class and team job is for nothing.
