Well maybe the time has come for Mesmer to remove Guardian completly from the meta.

While Guard does Ele level damage? Are you sure? With the Ice Bow nerf and the huge increase to guard damage, I don’t know about that. Which is why I was commenting about being concerned about the power creep back in the mesmer post. If the meta now allows both a guard and mesmer’s support all while maintaining a very high level of damage, wowsa, that’s a lot of extra defense.

Chronomancer : Double TW , Double Mini TW ( the well with 3 sec quickness) Shield and Quickness is a boon is a lot of dps too. Even if IB is removed 2 eles = 2 glyphs 2 meteor showers so the meta will still be 2 Ele 1 wa 1 thief + mesmer or guard.
We already know how OP the braindead meta is ( 2 staff ele and 1 ps wa) so I can’t see why you would want to removed 1 ele ( also staff ele gets buffed ps wa gets buffed a lot too).
F3 not giving aegis looks so bad too.

Well maybe the time has come for Mesmer to remove Guardian completly from the meta.

Mesmer finally gets better :O , Double Portals so good. Domination Dueling Chronomancer meta build.

Nice to see NoFB SE P2 getting improved good job. Approved.

Make sure the timer is correct!

On Abe PoV , the endboss dies at 9:05:24 so it is indeed 9:05 though very very close to 9:06.
Edit: I checked the 5 man one ( 5 man = 9:06:11 )

When you told me you beat a 5 man dungeon I couldn’t believe haha nice job. Approved

NoTrigger.8396:

how desperate do you have to be to cry because of a few milliseconds difference in a guild wars 2 record run lol.

How does that matter? The timer is incorrect, so I checked myself and noticed the whole time is wrong. All I wanted in the first place was a fix in the future. This just turned into drama because of people overreacting

This turned into drama because you started it not because of people overreacting.

Oki , lets start micro analysing every record to the seconds? Ill stop now as this is so pointless.

Can you please shut up or move this discussion in game or somewhere else? Out of respect just stop posting this 1 second thing here Thank you.

Sorry Ill make sure I start it next time when we enter the dungeon. Thanks Tobi.

Cheezy.2039:

By the way, Deathly, you should work on making your timers accurate. It starts late in this run and I noticed it in your AC p1 as well.

No reason to deny the record though

Edit: I looked it up myself and I got 3:03.02 as new time. If someone of the Approvers could look this up as well, that would be greatly appreciated.
Edit2: I also get 4:03.06 for AC p1 opposed to 4:02. Can someone please double-check?
Edit3: The timer starts late in the following (all-time) records: CM story, SE p2, HotW p2, CoE story, TA story, Arah p1, CoE p1, CoE p2 and CoE p3. I am too lazy to check if it always makes a difference of 1 second, I leave that job to someone else.

I am not the only one who has a timer am I? Also I don’t see the timer starting late at all in any record by me.

Cheezy.2039:

I don’t think so we just had ridiculous RNG on 2nd boss and carrier. We also did some stuff that made our run faster from 1st portal to 2nd one but didn’t kill the NPC as reliably

IF you don’t kill the NPC then isn’t it pointless to even get to such a huge cd? Hoping on RNG that he dies seems kittened then having a sure way to kill him.

EDIT: Btw im talking about waiting afk on the spot where you place the portal. Not when the clown car dies.(About the portal cd) . Even with insane rng I can’t see 18sec afk cuz of portal.

Cheezy.2039:

EcoRI.9273:

If I remember correctly, there was a talk that it was possible to kill the carrier fast enough that you could theorically wait 20seconds for the 2nd portal. I think you guys are factoring in the CD of portal to slow down the times between that right?

In the fastest run we had our portal had a 18s cooldown

I guess your mesmer forgot to put 2 points for lower cd on portal

I don’t remember any talk about such a thing and the max we had was around 5-7 seconds I think with 2 mesmers (so you get faster at clowncar).
And no we are not factoring the CD of portal, we just went as fast as possible on the second boss/clowncar.

EcoRI.9273:

ShadowRX.9024:

EcoRI.9273:

seems like they waited ~5seconds for the portal to recharge after the carrier, given that every class in that comp can blink, if they all blink maybe that will do the trick?

Well we prestacked might on the portal so every1 blinking up would mean sacrifing 1 utility for all eles=less dps and no prestack might.

but then cant you bring signet to copy 12stacks of might?

Hmm might can be fine like that yea but every ele being forced to drop 1 utility might make it slower.

Can’t wait until a less than 3 minute time is made.

Yeah, I don’t know where in that video they could’ve saved 2 seconds. It was nearly perfect.

Me getting knocked by fall dmg on the first portal skip cost us 1 second. It was the first time it happened too in 3h of attempts and maybe on the destroyer 1 sec as i had 12 might(worst fight for me T_T).

Sorry for the delay I had no internet for the last 6 days . Enjoy the new record .

Approved and good job.

That was a friendly advice to give key binds a try and then choose wich one you like/are more comfortable with.

People say he can be better by using key binds. for example I used to skill click too (utility F1234 heal and elite), it was fine and I told myself I will only click skills forever cuz I find using key binds hard but after a while I decided to give key binds a try and now I can’t go back to skill clicking and I find key binds way easier. Also key binds have more advantages over skill clicking.

tl.dr : Give key binds a try and you won’t believe after some days of key binds that you skill clicked.

Approved, good job.

ShadowRX, can you also correct our guild tag on gw2dungeons.net?
[LOD] not [LoD] (no lowercase o).

Done , its now LOD not LoD.

Approved, good job.

Approved , Congratz guys !

Se p2 is not really affected. You only use hallowed ground there and the static from the golem gets completly reflected or absorbed by wall and shield. Both champs are frozen so you have at least 2 or 3 stacks of stability for the spinning golem wich dies fast anyway and you can easily move out of his way . Idk about doing it in dailies but in the current SE P2 record that I was in that’s what happened.

Rewatch and see stability is not that important there.

Yea even though thief has huge mobility and teleports the DPS of an ele is still way higher then anything thief can achieve alone. Gz

Stop stealing my tactics and performing them better! ;-;
Good job tho, this one is gonna be tough.

Miku Lawrence.6329:

I wish people would put more work and finetuning into their records and not publish one per day.

Its a race, isn’kitten ^^ As long as youre faster than the current, you win.

Haha don’t even try to say copy tactics as you copied first from the 10:24 :P

I still can’t believe they actually want it on the leaderboard haha xD.

I think there should be a rule for restricted that only good comp can submit pls xD or at least if you are 2-3min slower then all time/old record don’t even submit.

Yea I agree 1 record per day is kinda bad but at least there is competition.

Meryn.6875:

ShadowRX.9024:

Nice though you are still slower :P

Time?

I need a new pc, framerate is holding me from a fast start, lost at least 15 there

Its on the front page 7:43

xD I kinda want full CM Solo Thief record so yea o/.

Nice though you are still slower :P

Read the Unrestricted rule before saying something like that. In Unrestricted there is no rule like that and you can relog/change character/leave dungeon use consumable etc. We were talking about banning this from RESTRICTED not UNRESTRICTED.

Oh is it so really? In that case I apologize, I may have been mislead by not seeing people relog even once in a really long time when looking for unrestricted records. Guess then relogging may not even be worth it after all.
Also, I seem to fail to find unrestricted ruleset on gwscr. Not only it is not on the main page, but the links to the gwscr forum get me to a non-existent topic.

Because people don’t care about unrestricted atm. I can say for qT at least that we have no intention on trying unrestricted records and if you look in the past there is like 5 unrestricted record or less showing that speedrunners like Restricted more and ignore unrestricted.

Tarasicodissa.7084:

The SSD x HDD problem in my opinion makes as much sense as necros complaining about eles being stronger. “Not fair, that class is much stronger than mine! Nerf plz.” Just like no one is forcing you to play necro and you are allowed to play any class you want as much as other players do, you are not forced to be playing on HDD and can get SSD any time you really want, it won’t get you a ban. So how can this possibly be an issue? No one has any kind of advantage, everyone is ALLOWED to have all the hardware they need.
I won’t be commenting on restricted, that one is supposed to be restrictive. But why have this nonsense on unrestricted? I would actually really like to see the rule about rerolling different classes being scrapped as well, because that would make some runs really interesting. There might be some passages where using other than standard party composition would be better, so you basically force players not to play optimally when going for a record time. GG.

Well i think it should not be allowed to leave dungeons because of the npcs. Why try to wp to move npc when 4 people can relog? In my opinion that looks bad and it destroys some tactics completly as oh wait lets just relog so the npc teleports…

If you leave via the front door you leave the dungeon. 13th rule covers Don’t leave the dungeon at all too but it is vague yea. I guess wethospu can change that to : 13.) Party members may not switch character/leave the dungeon once the timer has begun.

13.) Party members may not switch character once the timer has begun.

This means that you cannot leave the dungeon at all too.

Meryn.6875:

You just dont let me have it, eh?
Good job, you even beat the current record of Goku!
Do you think there could be some improvement bij having d/d on 2nd set at some points like the Lieutenant at Sigfast and/or last boss?

I think on 1 or 2 bosses D/D is better but you lose a lot of time just by retraiting aka why i just PW everything after the first boss. I would say you can do under 8 like 7 55 but very hard and a lot of RNG.

Look at some old records, its stupid to be forced to use icebow trick on every boss and if 1 person failed restart. I voted too for banning ib trick from restricted runs.
