Oops, My Guild Died While I Wasn't Looking

Lysico.4906

I’ve run a couple of small guilds in the past, but they were never particularly successful, nor did they have much endurance

Sorry OP but it is not GW2 that is the issue…

You got a track record of failure as a GM it appears. That is fine. Does not make you a bad player, gamer etc. So stop trying to be a GM and move on..

If you can’t accept that, then at least look in the mirror and try to improve. If time is your issue and you can’t get more of it , in game, then shelve the idea of GM’ing for now.

What is the issue?

I run a two person guild.. Me and my daughter and we are 100% fine. Just two guildmates grouping is a ton of influence and gold is so simple to land, we can get drinks for the rest.

Plus there is lfg gw2 site for us to run dungeons on..

AND, gasp, we keep an active friends list and see what they are doing when there is grouping needs..

But specifically for the OP, you want to run a roleplaying guild and you are not around much.. Sorry man but you get what you put into it.. a guild like that needs interactions and if the guild leader is offline a ton, it won’t happen..

Personally it took about 6 boxes before i realized it was a scam, it was the last 6 boxes too.
That will really help open world and bring more people to it….another useless RNG box..

You are doing it wrong then..

I mean READ above you. I did about 25 boxes. Karma with a karma boost was a wash and got about 7 gold worth of stuff plus some mats I could use.

You opened 6 and quit.. Sorry man, but don’t be the end all of how it works when your sample size is so small.

Anyone running scepter/dagger for Wpvp?

Well I gave both a try (OP here).. AFter a few days, finding D/D to be better. I can do it and be solid at it.

Just don’t love it like my s/d. But it IS more effective.

Here is hoping when the aoe nerfs hit us, they balance out the scepter.

Farming agent of entropy is not easy. It’s very expensive if you do the math.

That being said, achievement points is the best way to gauge the experience of the player.

If I see someone with 800 points, I figure the player is new. If you have 2000, you’re solid. If you have +3k, well you’re pretty well rounded.

This is so not true though.

Even at 80 vs normal mobs I can stay in fire and be fine. Maybe a swap at the end to water for a quick heal while I finish off the mob.

Only in wpvp and vs vet mobs do I stance dance.

Thank you for the reports, everyone; the designers are working on a fix for this issue. In the meantime, if you’re planning on buying the laurel box, we’d recommend that you wait for now. Sorry for the bug!

Just a horrible answer though. You do nothing but promote this new ability to gain gear and get players pumped up.

Then you don’t give them the class specific items that is promised. The only answer is to not buy them? What about a refund to the poor players? This is 5 days of work to land the box..

Disable the ability to buy ASAP! So many players don’t hunt around the forums. I mean I almost bought one last night and I would have been #E$#% if I did.

Again disable it. Don’t hope someone stumble here to read a random post.

Anyone running scepter/dagger for Wpvp?

in Elementalist

Posted by: Lysico.4906

Lysico.4906

S/D lacks aoe. So for serious wvw it’s not an option. And D/D is tanky anyway, much useful as a pushing force in the front than a medium range tickle dps.

You have to run -20% firecooldowns if you want to have any aoe kitten as thats the only attunument for it.

For d/d you need the 20% cooldowns in fire?

Sounds like I need to get my d/d skills up eh?

Anyone running scepter/dagger for Wpvp?

in Elementalist

Posted by: Lysico.4906

Lysico.4906

I found d/d really easy leveling up xp wise. But in Wpvp I have to bow my head and admit that I might not be that great as a d/d build.

My other 80’s with serious wpvp time is a shortbow ranger and ’nade spec engineer.

So I am not sure if I am giving d/d enough of a shake or if my brain is just wired better for ranged pvp performance. I am leaning towards that later.

So I don’t want staff outside of some tower take/defense. Scepter/dagger in pve was solid, though slower then d/d.

Thinking in wpvp I get the range i need, but the mobility and the nice stuff out of off hand dagger.

Anyone else running s/d in wpvp and care to share builds and /or experiences.

Thanks

Just port to Gendarran Fields to the Nebo waypoint.

The whole heart is about rezzing downed soldiers. Go there and literally takes you 2 mins to do the daily.

Daily change. wait for it, ,daily.

So it depends. Today with the kill 5 vet, I moved to Queensdales because the last area with the underworld portals you have a very good chance of spawning a vet mob there.

Took me maybe 20 mins for my daily.. I mean gathering and crafting is 2 mins at most.. Dodger you get from doing the vet kills. Events are always stupid easy.

The combo thing yesterday was just broken, hence the reboot and change..

Anyone converts Gem to Gold?

This is the time.. Wife got me two $15 cards from Gamestop this weekend as a gift.

With the patch, I saw it peak around 1.5 gold per 100 gems which was pretty high over the last few weeks..

Did not cash them all in, but enough to finish the exotics on one of my guys AND I played the dye roulette and won.. Picked up 20 unidentified dyes and landed abyss dye for 21.85 gold.

Walked away with 27 gold profit and some gems in the bank.

I made the mistake of leveling mine to 80 even after reading all the stuff here.

It is my 4th 80 toon. I figured all the doom and gloom here was just fluff and half truths.

Found out, it was not. I am sorry I wasted so much time on the engineer.

Vs my other toons, he is light years behind in ability and what he brings to the group.

That will give the guardian 100% swiftness?

I hate not having the passive 25% but on my other toons I can get 90% to 100% uptime on swiftness. Not seeing how to on the guardian (granted only messed around in the mists on a level 5 one)

Power build and mostly wpvp with some pve leveling.

Do you suggest I use the staff or scepter as my ranged options.

Does either get anything from my dagger power build?

Staff seems to miss so much in wpvp with the slow projection time and wells are only ok in chokepoints. But it does have better range and I don’t see power helping scepter

Let me know, thanks

Best Overall WvW Weapon Setup?

Posted by: Lysico.4906

Lysico.4906

I run GS/Rifle. Mostly zerker and valk (all exotic gear).

No issues really. Comes down to how well I play.

Run bola, bull charge and ignore pain w/sig of rage for elite (swap to norn cat form if I need stealth for rare times)..

Folks want to be anti GW, but I leveled up using all the different stuff. PvP, I found it to do all I need. Rifle is solid also.

in Engineer

It is situational (which can be said about most all our stuff)..

I fear people lock into one set of abilities after playing other classes and can’t or won’t change out kits depending on the situation.

In WpvP, I rotate my kits depending on if I am roaming solo, small group, taking a keep, defending a keep etc.

I pretty much use them all but my turrets (which is sad as I think they need more love)

axe 5 is less dps then axe auto attack. It is horrible and takes forever to finish (assuming you are not interrupted).
