Ah I love it. Even proven conclusively wrong, you’re all still wriggling around for technicalities.

“They never said that Legendary items would be Best-In-Slot.”
“Yes they did, here’s a quote proving it.”
“THAT DOESN’T PROVE ANYTHING!”

There is nothing to discuss or argue here. You made the statement that they never promised Legendaries to be the best in slot, and I have a quote that proves they did in fact say just that. Don’t try to get technical now and try to look for loopholes. You are wrong. They made the promise, and they will be held accountable for it.

I can’t help but think he’s right. They never mentionned anything about level, and “best in slot” could just mean ascended for all we know.

Well there are level 80 ascended items too, what about those? they won’t get raised to 90, you’ll need to craft more. For 500 ectos.

Vertical progression sucks.

Waiting for your Simin solo video!

Agreed. Female charr sounds like a human.

And a righteous-sounding human, at that.

Sadly .. Dev already stated that Race change will NEVER be availible in gem store

And I would buy a lot of gems for that

Make new toon
Buy gems
Craft all 8 professions to 80
Buy exo

yes this would be easy if I didnt have Legendary + full T3 set + fractals progression, etc on that toon

but ye thanks for advice

Buy more gems, convert to gold, buy legendary off TP, buy T3 set, pay someone to carry you in fractals.

So basically I’m grinding, to be able to grind more?

Good stuff.

Zeldain.5710:

Working as intended – it pushes people toward the cash shop to buy gold.

Ding ding ding. We got a winner.

It wouldn’t even surprise me if arenanet put them up themselves for some extra income.

If I see one stack of luck in FotM, instant kick. MF has no place in this game, especially not FotM.

I haven’t played it in weeks. It’s so weak and useless.

Read my question before answering something unrelated.

I’m not asking if it’s gonna stay top tier. we already know that.

• Will it become level 90? Then I won’t be able to use it until I levelup?

• Will there be some sort of “legendary” upgrade path? If so, will it cost several hundred golds as well?

Ohh, ghost mode! Cool idea!

Too easy to exploit, though. You could warn your team of all mobs beforehand.

Yes, throw it away. It’s useless.

Type /age, post how many hours you have. “All your time” doesn’t mean much!

You can get “rare” quality rabid accessories. Not much of a difference with exotics and you can get by easily.

Items that will cost 250 ectos or more gem store items, whatever they can come up to monetize.

If I craft a legendary weapon, it’s gonna be level 80
Let’s say they open up to level 90 in the next expansion, how will that affect my legendary?

Will it become level 90? Then I won’t be able to use it until I levelup?

Will I need to make one of the new level 90 legendary?

Thanks for all info you may have

Bad game design. Rushed bosses. Dungeons are boring.

Your post has been infracted

Fiddlybitz.6982:

I personally hope that all dungeons get the FotM treatment which makes graveyard zerging impossible to do.

HELL no.

Do I want to spend all the time in the dungeon, watching over my body?

No way. Even FotM is horrible in that regards. We need spectator mode!

Toxica.6749:

The excessive goldsinks are a niave attempt by NCSoft to strongarm players toward converting real money to game gold.

I say niave as it seems to be more effective at pushing people off the game altogether.

Spot on.

Now go buy some gems if you wanna keep playing.

Did CoF path 2 yesterday. During the dungeon, we clearly saw that our group DPS was very high, we were competent players and fairly skilled.

Magg kite room, we said kitten it, we’re fighting.

So we fought. Make sure to take down the big ones first, the “silvers”. Then it’s a piece of cake. We didn’t die, maybe a few downs here and there.

Medium armors are trench coats, heavy armor are skirts and light armor are robes.

Pretty ugly.

karma.8763:

I spent 16 gold on a full exotic MF gear, accessory’s ring’s everything, now i have an easy 200+% MF, and it helps alot (bought exotiv for the extra defense, it helps also) take charged lodestone farming for example……my body with no MF maybe gets 2 out of 3 hours of farming…..i get usually on a good days 7….. a bad day i get around 4. So yea it helps a ton for me.

I farm with 143% MF and I get 8 charged lodestones on a good day, and about 6 on a bad day.

I’m running out of those 250 stack salvage kits and farming tools, need to get some new ones. Any idea when Lyns will be back?

Closest thing I can find is:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/wintersday/Captain-s-council-commendation-here-to-stay/first

But the question was whether or not “commendations” will remain ingame, not when Lyns will be back.

So, when will Lyns be back?

There has been report of players losing items permanently from guild bank transaction.

It seems like transfering from guild bank uses a different programming interface than guild bank, and seems to be affected by issues that may make your items disappear.

I wouldn’t risk it.

penatbater.4710:

The only benefit of having full exotic MF is that your damage will be significantly higher than others

Stop lying. “Magic Find” takes the primary (highest) stat boost of the item. Even if you boost power and precision, you’ll still have way less than a toon with berserker or soldier gear.

The only advantage from full exotic MF to rull rare is that you’ll do 50 more damage. But still 300 under other, “normal” geared toons.

Here’s my take on it, I saw a post about this a while ago.

Nobody wants the weight of starting a group, so never advertise “LFG”

Always advertise “LFM” because that implies you’ve got people and need more, or are looking to join a group who already has more.

LFM gets the most replies.

Lol don’t spend money on gems, just run dungeons. you’ll get money

Blindness doesn’t stop all attacks. For example a knockdown AoE (think troll in AC). Aegis will block it.

That would be overpowered, and is the exact reason why it only blocks one hit.

Aegis is already extremely powerful as it is, it doesn’t need any boost.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Arenanet is not congress. They do what they want.

I saw a twilight for 4000, it stayed for a few days.

With the current exchange rate, that’s 500$ worth of gems.

Arenanet found a new cash cow, put up legendaries on the TP for rich people to buy gems.

Well the only thing in the term of service that MAY relate is such:

You may not market, promote, advertise, or solicit within the Guild Wars 2 Game or on the official Guild Wars 2 websites.

However gw2lfg.com is not “within the gw2 game”, and players contacting me ARE the ones soliciting my services, are they not?

Kain Francois.4328:

Why would it be bannable? It was legal in GW1. However, it’s very risky.

Risky how?

Kain Francois.4328:

What would be illegal is if you mass-kicked your party in order to make room to “carry” new people.

Of course not, everyone’s a consenting actor!

Kain Francois.4328:

Which dungeons out of curiosity?

Any!

Hello,

I’ve recently started carrying people thru dungeons for tips, but someone said he was gonna report me. Now I read thru the rules and I don’t believe this is against the ToS. Plus it was commonplace in GW1 to pay tips for running.

Is it a bannable offense to post on gw2lfg to find customers, and then invite them to party for a tip?

They are considered individually

Yes they gave a date:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/wintersday/Captain-s-council-commendation-here-to-stay/first

It’s gonna be back during wintersday. And if we look at the schedule for wintersday:

Wintersday is a special event for Guild Wars 2, running from December 14, 2012, through January 3, 2013

That means she should be back by thursday next week.

Guild Wars 2 is a badly programmed game, which makes it much more demanding than it would have been, if they would have spent time optimizing the code.

An example, if you go in a dungeon and do, for example, path 1, the entire instance contains all 3 paths, all the mobs, the entire map is loaded, and those maps are huge because they contain superfluous spaces that are never used but still built and still taking up memory, the entire scripts are loaded. Just an example of bad programming.

Arenanet loves the RNG. They RND’d 1000 accounts to get this card.

They said before wintersday ends, and they probably won’t have keys.

Because buy keys, that’s why.

There are 3 chests in CoE, and they have a chance to drop Charged. I’d say it’s pretty good. CoE is pretty balanced and fairly easy; I wouldn’t complain.

Malediktus.9250:

It fixed gw2.exe. It went from 40mb to 21mb.

Yeah… you don’t push an update just for that. You include it in a further update since it has no effect whatsoever.

They’re just hiding the patch notes, as usual.

Any patch notes for the new build?

This is a bug, as confirmed on this post:

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/Colossus-Rumblus-Needs-A-Nerf/first#post1025076

Because buy more bank space, that’s why.

Aphix.9846:

A great boss along with lupicus, you’re just not very clever or didn’t have enough dps.
1st time I did it took a while as well but we tried several tactics untill we found a 100% easy one.
We all dps’d her next to the wall near the sparks, when she went invis 2 people ran the sparks and 3 kept dps’ing her as she was invis and poisoning her as much as possible, she never actually healed while being stealthed, her health stayed the same, was a perfect tactic imo. Great boss no need to complain, not anets fault your team was incompetent.

Good job calling people dumb when you’re describing PRE PATCHED mechanics.

This doesn’t work anymore. Not very clever, are you?

LokiAlpha.8164:

I just spent 3 and a half hours doing this path(with no success). We had 2 warriors, 2 guardians, and a mesmer. The entire dungeon was a BREEZE compared to the last boss. It took us only an hour and a half to get to her.

I was one of the guardian with LokiAlpha in that run. We had the mechanic down to a tee with the sparks. We had pretty good DPS but it wasn’t enough. I don’t know what you need for this dungeon but it’s just horrible. We were plowing thru everything in the dungeon. I don’t think we even ported more than once from dying.

I’d say tuning down her regen by 20% would make a hell of a difference while keeping a lot of the challenge.

Her heal is insanely fast!

You hit the DR.

That one usually happens if you run over 4 or 5 dungeons in a 2 or 3 hours period

Full zerker 5 signet warrior is the way to go.

Paulytnz.7619:

You guys must not see the update info before logging into the forums.

https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/fractals-of-the-mists-dungeon-improvements/

Usually to see the latest info click on the “Guildwars2.com” link at the very top of this page and you will see the releases.

That has nothing to do with party finder. It’s just changing the level dynamics.

Don’t worry, I’ve read them all. If someone starts one, it won’t be me
