Guild Wars 2

They are fine, IMO. Haven’t played TERA much, but it’s definitely more annoying there.
And no, there aren’t a japanese (or anywhere in asia) release for Guild Wars 1&2. There will be chinese release for GW2 soon, though.

My friend plays Charr Ele and never puts his shirt on because “Real Charr needs no shirt.”

lmao. I’ve never seen a Ranger pet “dies” before, they’d just turn invulnerable. I guess the system doesn’t expect pets dying so he just lies there :P
A rare find, for sure. Reminds me of a failed apparition.

Thank you for fixing! I’m very happy to wake up and find out that I can play again.

kokiman.2364:

Gathering tools.

Astral Projections.7320:

Fine salvage kits.

I completely forgot those exists for karma! I’ll buy those over an Orrian box now.

I liked it more when it showed horns, too. I was really happy. Then the Asura fix came and reverted my hood-horn version to hornless. Q_Q

“Grab a powder keg and get plastic!”
“Getting HARD!” – Charr warrior’s adrenaline line.. DON’T JUDGE ME.
“Corpses lead to questions.. These wieners know too much. They need to vanish.”

lol Looks like I’m lucky as all kitten, because I did it 4 times and never fell down from the presents or the wind or anything after. Praise the lord!
But seriously, everything I did was the same as last year and that had yet to fail me.

Aw, if you’d search more you’ll find my topic on this several months ago T_T.
Causes by crabs, yes, and you can /threaten @ them to shut them up.

“I kill fathers and mothers.. Now I hump their children!”
“For Grape Justice!”
“Charr need no golfs!”

I remember this being issued, like, 3+ months ago. Jotun’s kick apparently kick Engineers out of their kits. We can now confirm that it still happens, then. :]

Yeah, I hope this get fixed asap.. But it happens for me even though I didn’t get interrupted.
I tried to pick Reflecting Crystal up in Jade Maw this evening. I couldn’t use any of my skills, can’t pick up anything, even my dodges didn’t consume any energy(can roll around but no evades).
Good thing that getting downed/killed fixed it.

Did you try to pick up a bundle from the ground (FGS, Ice Bows, Rocks, Boulders, etc.) by any chance? That seems to be causing the problem for me.

krippler.9826:

If the attack hits 5 targets, is there a chance for a single critical hit that hits all 5 targets, or does each target have a chance to critical hit independently.

Independently.

how does it affect Superior Sigil of Intelligence? If you swap to a weapon with this sigil, if a critical hit is guaranteed to be applied to all targets that are hit, that is much more significant than if it only was guaranteed to crit on a single target.

I’m not sure if it’s single target or not, but it sure as hell not every target hits by an AoE attack. I just tested with Warrior’s Longbow #3.

Keenan Sieg.1493:

To reiterate what Bobby was saying, both the female and male sylvari lines were recorded incorrectly, so the decision was made to not include that line for any race until they can be fixed.

I vote do not fix. Currently on my male Charrdian, I occasionally hear awesome lines by using HTL, such as “None shall pass!”,“We will not fall!”, “Confound the enemy!” and amusing lines like “Turrets overcharged!” and “Let’s get these supplies.”
I love them. Though, I do (rarely) get “Hold the Line!” even if you say it wasn’t included for any race :P

Welcome to the WTF train. Meet the unsatisfied Charr, since when their in-combat-with-weapons-sheathed running animations were changed to look less “comical” ! (And yep, none of them were in patch notes.)
I’d recommend start getting used to it. The chances they’ll get reverted is extremely low.

Off-topic: I still don’t understand why Faithful Strike doesn’t cleave while Warrior’s cleaves and also applies Weakness. It’s not like FS’s healing is gonna multiply if it cleaves. Seriously. > >

IT’S THE CRABS!!

When you approach them, they’ll do the “COME AT ME BRO!!” pose, which creates an empty line in your chat box, for the total of 3 times, before they turn hostile towards you.
However, you can get close, /threaten at them to shut them up and show how baws you are.

Charr and Asuran Thieves (maybe more) are missing blurry effect on dodge.

Pretty much every class that camp ranged weapons tick us off lol.
On-topic: SB damage is pretty okay if you spam Cluster Bomb. Auto #1 AFK is not ok.

NevirSayDie.6235:

I have serious doubts about immobilize stacking, but I can clear one thing up for you:

Condition removal functions on a last in, first out basis. There is no “priority.”

My bad, then. But we still have trouble when those Risen keep spamming Poison and Bleeding and Immobile get pushed to inner heaven.

Running through everything in Orr. You make a mistake one time, first Risen immobilizes you, then another, then another and another. Condition Removal? Oh look! Immobile is one of the last conditions removal priority! All my removal skills keep removing those Bleed and Poison.
Bad aside, it makes most bosses easier because we can all chain Immobile and AFK ranged.

Ryn.6459:

do you really need givers weapons to get 25 stacks of vulnerability?

Against normal and veteran mobs, no. Anything with Defiant does require more condition duration, though giver weapons are not necessary.

I run 30/10/0/10/20. All Berserker with 3 Superior Rune of Lyssa and 3 Superior Rune of Mad King, just for the condition duration. I wanted to bring more of what Engineer is good at, which I found to be Hard Knockbacks, loads of control conditions (Chill, Immobilize, Cripple, Weakness [SKALE VENOM!!]) and vulnerability.

For food, I carry +40% condition duration for fights that require heavy kiting, life steal on crit for survivability, Mango Pie for general sustain and other +Power +Pre foods.

Well, seems everything goes missing now and then… Maybe we should check whether our characters still have all their limbs after every patch.

First of all, apologies to that specific topic in the Thief forums I replied to yesterday. I’ve been playing this character for so long I didn’t notice the blurry effect was missing!

Self-explanatory. Charr Thieves’ dodges don’t have blurry effect. I can’t say for other races because all my characters are Charr. I have no idea when did it disappear.

Kyotee.7851:

I just made one to give it a whirl. I noticed that the cool blur effect on thief dodges is not included in charr dodges.

Call me vain, but that just was a big turn off. Guess I can always go with Charr engineer.

Thanks for your input..maybe hidden pistol will benefit engineer a bit more, the ability just really looks cool. =)

Thanks for you input =)

Don’t know what you’re talking about, my Charr Thief has blurry dodges.
As for racial skills, in most situations you would never be using them, no matter which race you are, ever. Unless it’s for fun, of course.

Funny enough, two of those “noob classes” I know are strong in TA. I have Guardian, Engineer and Thief in berserker armors. Turns out Engineer and Thief can do same, if not more damage and can stay alive better than Guardian..

No. It was most likely bugging out on your group.
And which door need grenades to open them again? I don’t recall any.

This is what I’d call doing it right, everything in this path is well designed.

-Mobs don’t have too much HP.

-We actually have to move to survive in certain encounters, not just stack afk auto-attacks.

-Interesting mechanics without being frustrating. Maybe Fire Elemental room is an exception, but the Slick encounter is good. There is an indicator who the Ooze will follow, and he follows very well, also the radius which he will start sucking up fields is very responsive.

-Electric room with 4 panels! We can dodge the field or put up invulnerable skills. This is very awesome.

-Bosses don’t have ridiculously large HP pools. Even the final boss, who is a Legendary class, goes down surprisingly fast.

-Builds apart from DPS machines are actually viable. No quick cheap one-shot moves from bosses, more consistent damage which makes sustain-based builds useful.
No comments on Condition builds as I haven’t seen them yet.

I’m looking forward to more paths and revamps like this in the future. Very nice job on this one.
I’m not good at expressing this but lately there are only complaint threads so I thought I could make some positive ones lol.

Personally, I’d like to see this new path first. I’m curious how the story will get tweaked, like Fyonna getting crushed by Scarlet before reaching the Nightmare Tree.
We’re finally getting something that impacts and changes the existing story!

At C.L.E.A.N. Station in Metrica Province, there stands 2 Seraph Guards together claiming to be waiting to escort someone to already-over Queen’s Jubilee.

Hassa Airthunder (Arah Story Mode’s cinematic, right before destroying 3 Orrian Towers) has male Charr model and female voice.

Funny thing is that ele would still be able to deal 300k damage in 3 seconds if fgs gets nerfed.

#.4 staff fire and #3 dagger fire, right?

Neither nor.

Then what? these 2 have same mechanic as fiery rush.

Don’t know if Dub is refering to this skill, but there’s actually an ele skill that is intended to function like untargeted fiery rush.

Tidal Wave

IMO It’s quite legit, because you’ll have to position your enemy directly next to a wall and hope your target doesn’t feel like moving an inch. And let’s face it, GW2 underwater combat is horrible and these two skills are fews of the only decent damage source.

Might have been mentioned before but I hope those land-specific trait will be changed so that they have SOME effect underwater. Namely, any weapon-cooldown reduction that ain’t spear/trident/harpoon gun and various type of utility skills cooldown reduction that are not usable underwater.

Khisanth.2948:

It is probably related to the same bug that causes all the ghosts in ascalon(also some in Harathi Hinterlands) to no longer look like ghosts. Same with Mesmer illusions, sometimes it’s on and sometimes it’s off.

Pretty much this. Try zoning in and out, it should fix itself eventually.

I’ve played all classes so far and I liked them all except Necro. I don’t know what to like in them, except maybe Spectral Walk, and DS cliff jumping was kinda fixed so I stopped playing Nec.

JonathanSharp.7094:

Class balance:
Thief
We’re also looking at shaving the efficiency of Flanking Strike slightly, so that it now only removes 1 boon instead of 2.

If it must be done, please seperate this change from PvE. The mobs that have boons reapply it so fast and usually have 3+ boons on them at once, it’s already initiative-burning as it is.

Get Inner Fire, purchase Jezza’s Flamethrower in Sparkfly Fen, press skill 2, burn yourself and get fury….

Azunai.5974:

People are a lot more interesting!

Duo roam with guildie in WvW: “Havn’t ran into anyone for half an hour. I seriously doubt that555566666633333”

Some guy when getting rezzed from downed state: “Mmm, I like it when you rub me like that. Rub a little lower, will ya?” And then left alone to die

Love these, especially the 2nd XD

In dungeon group : “I’ll switch to my ____ (Alt)” – Instance Creator

Charr enemies : “Ouch! That hurt like—- I mean, nice shot.”

I LOL’D at COWARD!! Elite. Now we need an opposing Logan summoning stone..

Proteus.6320:

10/25/0/30/5, which is also very fun for pve in a more support fashion with shouts.

Luv you Proteus. Just beaten 8 Orbs Liadri with this. <3

Eh I don’t have even one but it might be worth testing if the tool tip is correct. Go apply some conditions to some moas and see if it matches your tool tip. For example if you go over 100% condition duration the tool tip will still update, but in reality the actual condition cap is 100%.

My apologies then. I have them both on Highest all the time and haven’t encountered this issue. (Yay 5 FPS in zergs)

Esc > Options > Graphics Options > Character Model Quality > Set to something higher.. You’re welcome.

Thief’s not all bad if played correctly. You can stack might on fire fields quickly, keep normal mobs perma blind with off-hand pistol #5, interrupt those annoying dawgs with off-hand pistol #4, skip useless parts with group stealth, and KITTENING SHADOW STEP EVERYWHERE!!!(<<Main reason for me to play thief in dungeons, it’s loads of fun) while doing tons of damage.
But like deSade said, they’re like paper and will go down 2x faster than warriors if you take dmg head-on.

You just went in from the wrong side. You’ll have to go through the tavern (which is in the upper area of LA), talk to the NPC then you can go in the instance.

Dunno about Zoj but Rytlock isn’t present in his office from time to time since launch. Nothing new here.

Yours’ most likely not unlocked yet (sitting at 99.9999% so you can’t tell the difference) because I’ve used and seen other Charr warriors used it fine.
Try killing something that yields exp with your shield as off-hand.

Fatfox.4915:

Sometimes the lighting makes white charrs seem glowy, especially the tail.

This. I love it. It’s so FABULOUS!!!

There’s the SoSvanir dialogue in HotW p1 that I misheard as “Now I hump their children!” >_>

Sea of Sorrows has lots of aussies. I’m on SoS and in Asia time zone, and I see lots of people online in my evening time.
You should wait for more responses first, though.
