Right now we’ve got more devs on here then ever before, and they’re actually talking, listening, and keeping us updated. This is unprecedented. Since we’ve actually got their attention at the moment, maybe it’d be a good to give constructive feedback and approach this with the goal of working with them to improve the content, rather than just kittening and trying to beat them down.

Remember when Regina came asking for us to develop a thread per dungeon of changes and bugs?

I remember the time that I wasted there because a dev came by and baited us. Do you remember?

There’s no excuse for being mean to them, and people who are doing that are stupid. But I just can’t feel motivated to help after being ignored on the other attempts. I hope this time is the charm, though.

We want the metrics from players actually playing the event – kind of hard to do that if we turn them off.

You will then all have the opportunity to help us gather the metric we need to provide the level of challenge you expect.

I’ve posted this before but I didnt get an answer:

  • 1 – What would you say is the expected percentage (%) of players that will be able to complete the raids you’ve designed? The first wing at least.
  • 2 – Are you allowed to share that %?

I remember Josh Foreman shared with us the % of players expected to complete SAB W2 tribulation for example.

We can give you more meaningful feedback about the difficulty if we know the level of difficulty that is supposed to be.

I think that boss (red) takes huge amount of damage if you kill the moving AoEs. So its not only condition I guess. That way, Direct DPS players focus the blobs and Condi’s the boss

My opinions

Your setup assumes:

  • All attacks are blockable or semi-blockable or reflect-able (unlike burning dart,

Well staff Eles can block those attacks with Earth ele so there should be no need for a facetank nomads player

Anet announces last raid boss to require full ascended armor.

Reddit casuals lose their mind.

In before we’re back on the “balanced for a party of green/blues/rares” dungeons.

Edit: Oh and some of them are saying Lupicus is now done blindfolded by the majority.

I really REALLY doubt it’s a “majority”. Probably 75% of the reddit playerbase buys us Arah runs Lol. Not to mention if Anet actually bothered to fix Lupicus Oneshot exploit, even less people would do him.

Yes. He is easy now. But to us. When casuals act like he is easy just because other people do him, I just have to laugh.

They could be talking about Full ascended Celestials or Nomads, which would be the offensive stats equivalent of Rare/Exotics lol

why would you even play warrior? Necro has more dps

Of course Necro has more DPS. Warriors are only used because they buff Ele’s ice bow!!! When that is nerfed you will see Necro’s FAT DPS!! i swear on me mum

you dont need to grab 5 friends. It is better but Ive been consistently pugging and doing well

I average, with guardianway pugs 30min FOTM 50, which I have to say, its quite a record for my pug runs.

Tokens were pretty ridiculous at release to be fair, 5 per path I think? that combined with the bugs and green gear made tokens seem pretty valuable.

If tokens were 5 per path still, man, arah armor would have… well maybe not prestige, but something resembling it.

Not with Dungeon PvP reward tracks it wouldnt

If you dont want to be checked, dont join gearcheck groups. This is no different than “ping gear”, really. You’re all just crying over nothing.

In fact this is a lot more troublesome than ping your gear, which is exactly why no one is bothering to check through this. It’s a pain in the kitten and waste of time.

Not even the most tryhard players are using this to check other people.

Guardianway is kittening amazingly faceroll comp for pug groups. It fails way less than the standard meta comps.

If 5 Guardians are like that, imagine TEN, 10 guardians in raids. Call me crazy all you want, but I’m betting Guardianway will be the one of the easiest way to complete raids.

I don’t get this. I don’t really PvP ever, but as far as I know, cantrips have been the meta. I haven’t seen icebow in PvP ever. Does that mean Anet acknowledges this game has PvE? :O
Btw… Dragon’s Tooth being ground targeted doesn’t really help me at all. If anything, I had trouble aiming Comet when prestacking. That one should be ground targeted.

There were some WvW videos of 10 players stealthing and kitten zergs with Ice Bows on Reddit. As we all know Anet takes quick action when things get posted on Reddit. Lol

With how late Anet seems to be in pretty much every feature development of HoT, I dont think you should expect different types of Legendary Armor, but rather 1 model only.

They shall call it Legendary Outfit.

on the move pulsing stealth. Seems like it could have uses for trash skips and swap it out for fights.

I was over the impression the stealth gyro stealthed 5 members but he was visible during the entire process.

Edit: Yes, I was right. “The scrapper’s elite utility provides a pulsing cloak field around it veiling you and your allies from enemies. The gyro itself remains visible.” From: https://www.guildwars2.com/en/news/meet-the-scrapper-engineers-elite-specialization/

So it’s going to be effectively useless for skipping, since the gyro will aggro. Right?

Also you won’t be able to swap out for fights in raids.

The fact that Anet has got members of the Dungeon community who understand the mechanics of the game at a high level does give me a hope for their raids.

That is, depending on how much they want to tune them down after the testing is done.

Im not a Rev (didnt even bought expansion yet) but Anet simply removing a new CC (displacement) all together is a bit boring….

Look at Rev’s #2 Downstate, it’s now simply inferior to the Guardian’s #2, which knockbacks AoE, while Rev is single targetted.

Just why? How do they not see this?

I’ve gone ahead and looked into this myself and there isn’t really much to say here. We screwed up. An entirely embarassing situation here, as one of our newer GMs made the mistake of flagging your girlfriend as cheating when in reality she was using Omnomberry Ghost.

Just trying to think of words here to justify this one escape me. Thankfully, when these bans happen we have something to fall back to in order to make sure there wasn’t a mistake…and well…we made a mistake.

Hopefully we have rectified the situation at least a little bit, but I just wanted to stop by here and offer my apology.

Sorry.

Lmao they flagged a poor player for using Omnomberry Ghost but they can’t flag that known Arah Griefer we hate..

Hum just a thought: people seem to be wanting the elite specs to be direct buffs to current classes (look at the Necro example all over this thread)

Isn’t that just plain powercreep?

And then be stuck on a crappy trait line because you can’t use that warhorn without it.

If you use it before a fight, you can always just swap back to your normal build. Will require retraiting though so more clicks than just weapon swapping.

If that might last 13sec like in the video, then its not really worth it is it

He also says: “I doubt people who can’t afford a commander tag will be able to do raids.”
