Between the NPCs in town and the warriors always spouting off about their “great justice” I have just learned to use my mute button while within cities. Although this may now be the best solution it does work.
I never understood those warriors that spammed for great justice… I’ll be using the bank sorting items and for 10minutes straight this 1 warrior kept spamming it
I wouldn’t speak at all anymore. You don’t really say much other than you’re helping new players. Try giving examples. Also there is probably more to these incidents than you make out to be. I do agree though 3 players should be required to kick and after the 3rd fractal you shouldn’t be able to kick players. I’m worried with the new reconnect feature guides will be kicking pugs to invite their friends for the chest.
I’m still having a hard time figuring out how people can defend magic find gear in fractals and dungeons. They intentionally get a full set knowing it only benefits them while reducing their survivability and damage thus increasing the time to complete a run.
While I don’t agree with Legendaries being available on the TP, your point is moot because Legendaries aren’t power. You can buy the exact same power as the Juggernaut for 2 or 3 gold. Aside from being convertible to a higher tier when they become available, you don’t gain power by owning a Legendary. You gain a sign of respect for your hard work/wealth but not for your power.
Your point has already been proven false before, so rather than re-posting that same argument (again) I’m going to post the simplified version:
An item that infinitely scales up every time the level cap and best tiers of items come out? That is a power. It’s an intangible one, certainly, but in the long term (which is what people should be looking at, instead of saying “oh, but X is so far out that it’s not worth worrying about”) it’s the best possible power in the game.
Legendaries aren’t something you just go out and buy unless you’re a power trader. They obviously want players to keep replaying fractals
This is so easily solved by just making them buy/sellable on the Trading Post.
“But we don’t want power being bought and sold”, you say? I would point out the devs have already confirmed that Legendaries are supposed to be sellable on the Trading Post, so it’s pretty clear they don’t care if power is bought and sold in this game. So why not just allow Ascended gear to be bought and sold, too?
Because players would obtain the items faster meaning there would be less for them to do in the long run
Only reason I stopped playing my engy was I had a nade build and your hand will start hurting after a while because you have to keep spamming the 1 button just to attack

Hopefully the patch will fix this and let’s see if they learnt anything from dungeons where a player would get kicked and replaced with a guildie at the end to loot the chest
Gear inspect would be pointless players would just have 2 sets and switch to the magic find set after you’ve check their gear. They should just remove it from working in dungeons/fractals except for the food
I’ve been running fractals 20&30+ daily over the past 2 and a half weeks i’ve only gotten 4 shards. I can’t even upgrade my alts rings to infused because I don’t have enough shards while my friend found 4 shards from 1 fractal. Yay for RNG
you can also blame berserker’s gear for not having good survivability… i had runs in dungeon with people who do high damage once in a while when they are not too busy being downed because they don’t have toughness or vitality…
i sometimes wear my carrion exotic armor with superior runes of traveler in it and i do damage and don’t die because i have an high amount of health, and i don’t want to be blamed because i don’t die.
zerker gear isn’t that bad if you know how to dodge and bring traits/utilities that help you survive
What a shame I really enjoyed playing with other regions in gw1 now it seems we are taking a step back. It becomes difficult to recruit players for fractals during off hours if we could play with other regions it would help. I really see no point of this guesting feature other than if you can’t access someones overflow…
We all know if they start working on this is will take over a year to implement;/
There are a lot of hot heads in this game just earlier today I created an AC explorable group nobody except me had done story mode. So I was willing to zone them but I had to walk from black citadel. One player starts throwing a fit for no reason saying i’m a liar and theres no way I did story mode without having the waypoint. I told him I would zone us in to prove I have storymode done. He pretty much rage quit before I could prove him wrong. I was kind of glad he left because I didn’t want to deal with a player like him. I’ve gotten kicked many times for suggesting tactics in the nicest way
Best thing you can do atm is block players and stay away from guild groups unless you know them. Like you said it’s easy to kick players in this game because it only requires 2 players. I also don’t understand how we are supposed to report players if we get kicked because all party chat vanishes
If I am typing and an ingame window pops up such as the overflow message why is it that the game takes me out of typing? This is annoying because i’ll be typing and pressing buttons thinking i’m typing but opening windows like guild roster/contacts/etc. I think when you are typing and an ingame popup happens it shouldnt take you out of typing
Everyone complaining about respawns either needs to rethink their build or upgrade their gear i’ve never had an issue with respawns and I have 4 80s. Everyone just wants everything easy mode faceroll. Also respawn rates were faster in the beta yet you people still think its too fast just aren’t satisfied until you can roll your face across the keyboard
I loved the feeling of progression I had in the instanced GW1-Missions. I killed mobs in a certain location and now felt safe in that area. I could retreat to those areas if it got a bit too difficult and it felt like I made a difference.
Respawning of mobs feels very artificial for me in general. Jeffrey, you want people to move on to another area if they killed a mob, respawning mobs are not the way to do this in my opinion. Farmers just stay in the same area and farm those respawning mobs, this is how botters survive too.
In GW1 you had some empty areas too when you played in a zone, that wasn’t a big problem for me. I definitely see it as a problem in GW2 when the area isn’t cleared by yourself but other players. I really would suggest a different way though.
example:
The world is dynamic already because of dynamic events. You could make the dynamic events the source of new mobs. Everytime an event starts those waves come from nowhere and occupy an area. What you could do: make some of the mobs split from the wave and return to the places where mobs are missing. But until there is no event in that area, there is no “mob-respawn”. This would feel more natural in my opinion.
example2:
introduce “breakout events” for mobs, where a big group of enemies patrols an area and some stay behind those areas where mobs are missing. There is this one event ( I think it was in Blazeridge Steppes) where a mobgroup of 10+ mobs with a champion-leader strolls around and it’s not a too easy task to defeat those. Love it.
How can you compare gw1 to gw2? If you didn’t realise gw1 was all instanced
I complained about this before a forum rep just told me to report them. That doesn’t solve the problem it just mitigates it. i was also wondering how anet thought 2/5 votes is a majority
Is this known? I have a hard time finding my arah weapons because they use the same default skin. Want me to make icons for the weapons using paint and send you a copy?
Downed state and other races having an advantage such as asura with their small character models which makes it difficult to see the animations to time your dodges etc.
I also find it just isn’t appealing to watch compared to sc2 and cs
I’ve played a tonne of dungeons before fractals was introduced and i’ve now made it to lvl 30 on 1 char and 12 on another i’ve been kicked around 4x for no reason at all sometimes I don’t understand how 2/5 players is a majority when it comes to vote kicking. I would try avoid the parties with guildies because if 1 of them doesn’t like you you will get kicked
Downed feature is the biggest reason I don’t WvW. If you are facing a big zerg and have less players and you pick off some players it doesn’t affect the zerg at all because that person will get ressed instantly. It’s pretty much whoever has more players wins especially during off hours
I’ve been seeing more of these botters lately. They teleport instantly to nodes and mobs making it very difficult to report them because of how fast they teleport away. How are we supposed to report these botters?
They can’t just snap their fingers and they magically appear. It cost resources and time plus heroes/hench pretty much killed any interaction outside of guild/pvp
Wasted 3 hrs trying to do lvl 10 fractals today. First time someone d/c’d during the first fractal so we waited for him to come back on he d/c’d again. We then got someone else during the 2nd fractal the new person d/c’d. So I took a break cause we couldn’t 4man it with our group cause of the lava level boss. Started a new group guess what during the 2nd fractal someone says the game kicked them to lions arch when we were transitioning fractals. It’s quite obvious Anet rushed fractals so that they could retain players they are losing and appeal to newer 1’s
Have you reported him with the in-game tool? That is what Anet said I should have done when this happened to me. So I encourage to do that. My case was bit different but still that is currently best you can do.
Anet should have already done something with this but I do hope that they atleast will get this reworked by the time when those other fixes to fractals and all come…
they more then doubled the chance for the trait shrapnel to activate.
However, to suggest its more then direct damage is silly and flat out wrong.
Especially in a dungeon, where bleeds are capped at 25 from all sources.
And using shrapnel grenades, with shrapnel trait will nearly cap 25 bleeds all by yourself.
So what runes/sigils/traits would you suggest with a dd build?
Full Rabid, 30 in Explosions, put the rest of the points wherever you want. If you want to go full glass cannon put 30 in Firearms and 10 in either Alchemy or Tools. For sigils, either double up on Earth sigils or go Earth/Agony to maximize bleed duration.
Grenades no longer really do much in the way of direct damage so condition damage is the way to go, especially with the massive condition buff last patch.
Condition buff? what exactly did they change with conditions O_o?
Okay so this party function needs rework. When the host the player that zones the party in leaves everyone gets booted. This is quite ridiculous we can’t always play with friends or guildies. When you pug you always take the risk of having the party leader leave.
I usually try be the party leader myself but today when we started a fractals group I zoned us in then 1 player declined the enter. So we all came out and he zoned us in and he said it was an accident. I had this feeling that he was going to leave at the end so nobody could loot the chest and what does he do as soon as jademaw dies he exits his client immediately then relogs 1minute later then i whisper him saying why he did it he then says " I am an anet employee, and it was an accident I have kids" I took a screenshot of this. This isn’t the first time this has happened I usually try invite players I had good past experiences with from my friend list. How exactly do you report someone for doing this do you put it under scamming?
When transmuting another armor skin to a current armor do you lose the rune? I am trying to transmute a starter mask with divinity berserker helm. When I place the berserker helm in the panel it shows the rune/stats/skin but when I place the starter mask it vanishs. When I put the starter mask in the mid along with the berserker stats it doesnt show the current rune stats
I bought a level 10 mask that had +3 power and tried testing transmutation with my divinity berserker helm and I was able to put the rune in the middle. So it seems you can’t keep your rune if you transmute it to a starter mask?
I was doing fractals today and noticed all this rope appearing all over wood and scaffold. I knew it wasn’t artifacting because it looks like its actually rendered into the game I think it might be the new drivers 310.70. I am running a 570gtx temps are around 55-60c. It also only appears in Fractals and on wooden areas
