The options for ground targeting currently are show indicator in key press and cast on key release, cast where your pointer is and the normal which is indicator follows pointer and when u click the spell gets cast.
Most of the time I don’t click on mobs to target them it automatically targets when I attack. After the initial attack the mob will be targeted unless u want a specific mob then there are other options u can use to select targets. In the control options it shows 3 options to target enemies and 3 for allies but there are 2 that aren’t mentioned for enemies and at least 1 for allies.
I know I’m not the only one who hates ground targeting. When I play I’m always on the move but when I choose to use a skill that requires ground targeting I have to stop running or the target will be completely off. I suggest an option to make ground targeting work like AoEs It will target the ground around an enemy or ally that you have selected. This is in no way stopping players who like using it but allowing those of us that don’t a way to increase our skills. The option can be in the drop down that already exists that lets you choose how to use ground targeting. I understand there are other options for ground targeting and I have tried them all but to me they all seem really bad.
Every time I get tot he top of this jumping puzzle the chest has been opened stopping me and others from receiving loot. According to the wiki it has a 10-20 min respawn timer. I think the respawn should be lowered to 5 min or remade so it works like the other jump puzzles so the chest opens for everyone. I you insist on having a boss when the chest is opened make 2 chests 1 with the boss and the other with the loot and whichever opens first the guy pops out of.
Maybe the next memory seed will show us that Caithe is hiding in a snowcharr in LA.
I get why they did it but I feel that it took away 80 lvls of you fixing your character the way u want only to see your hard work thrown out. You are not alone with being mad about it. You can’t pay me to do the achievements for this episode but I do think a way to improve the experience is allow us to exchange some of the skills with other thief skills we feel more comfortable with and skills that fit our gear better.
I got to say Caithe doesn’t need a nerf. Most players don’t play thieves and are not used to one. I think instead of giving us 10 skills we can’t change they should let us pick and choose what skills we want.
Give rangers WHITE polar bears too.
Woah, racist!
Not trying to be racist its just they don’t even look like polar bears.
Single player content in the LS is actually a good thing. Weeks from now when season 2 is done and over not many players will do the living story and players in guilds will even have a hard time finding groups. Believe it or not a majority of players only contribute when there is a reward for them in the end. So even using the LFG tool it would be really hard finding groups to do the achievements.
If you want mounts my only suggestion is to equip the broom, tunneler or the carpet and then use a waypoint. Doing that is pretty much the same as any other mount in another game. Broom, tunneler and carpet= something u sit on and waypoint= fast travel.
I think we don’t need expansions at all. If expansions existed then some players would be left out because they could not afford it and they will most likely quit the game. The way they release the content now everyone enjoys it at the same time and nobody feels left out. If you want a game with an expansion go play WoW.
Give rangers WHITE polar bears too.
From what I understand Glint’s mind was freed but her body remained in crystal form. Last time I checked your mind doesn’t determine if you can reproduce. Now the eggs in GW1 could be from her being pregnant before she was corrupted but they should have all hatched by now since the 1st one hatched in GW1.
Ever since I got to the storyline where you help the Skritt I always wondered how Glint was able to lay eggs. This dialogue was in that storyline.
<Character name>: Destroyer queen. Dragon minions shouldn’t be able to reproduce. How is this possible?
Warmaster Forgal Kernsson: Two possibilities. Could be a creature that was pregnant when she was corrupted. Or this “queen” might be a kind of minion we’ve never seen before.
Now if Glint was pregnant before she was corrupted wouldn’t all her eggs have hatched by now? Also if there was a type of minion that could reproduce I’m sure in the 250 years since we first saw dragon minions we would have come across a few.
So how is Glint’s egg in the new LS even possible? I guess it could be possible that the egg the Master of whispers has is a dud and everyone is only interested in the magic within it rather than the creature.
Not sure if this is a bug or a change for minions but they seem to all die as soon as my necro goes into the downed state.
Super Bubbles
I’m sure we will be going to those places and many others after we finish with the dragons. I could also see Canthans helping with Sbubbles and Elonians helping with Kralkatorik.
Chances r this wont happen but would be really cool if we go back to when Destiny’s Edge meets Glint and we fight against Kralkatorik and win.
Is the video on the rest of the LS or just the next episode cause it almost looks as if we might go to multiple new maps.
All I can say is WOW.
this is the point I was trying to make with being in DS while rezzing. you have limited time in DS so why would u waste it rezzing someone when u can use it by attacking the mob and get them to rally instead.
Also necros do have too much stuff for DS. There is DS traits in every path and it would be wise for Anet to improve the other qualities of necros. Some players don’t like using DS.
I use scepter most of the time and they still tend to help me out. I also noticed if I get hit they all tend to go after the mob who hit me.
I doubt they will introduce a new continent until all dragons r defeated. it would be hard for Anet to do LS on the continent we r on now and another continent at the same time.
Personally I have beta tested a lot of the new MMOs that r out or have yet to be released and I can say GW2 is by far better then all of them. I know others who have beta tested as well and they all say the same.
I have also been stuck at 11/12 and have just sent an in-game ticket. I have been stuck at 11 for a few days and just now added 3 more achievements that are not dailies and had no change.
There is already too much stuff with necro DS so I think it is about time it got a nerf. Why would you even rez while u in DS anyways?
Sometimes I do have this problem with minion AI but most of the time they do help me fight. I use dagger on my MM and I think it works pretty good.
The way I see it is that there is no wrong way to play a class and as long as you are comfortable with the build you are using then you are golden.
Screw an animated TV series bring on a live action series.
I still say your MM build is fine and if you use superior sigil of life and superior sigil of water you minions will keep you alive and when you hit mobs it will heal others around you.
The important thing is that you feel comfortable with your build cause there is no wrong way to play your character.

DS = 5 crapp skills and 0 utility skills, no DS =10 skills which u can change depending on which weapons u equip and u keep your 5 utility skills. Id say based on those stats id choose no DS every time.
Maybe you would enjoy an elementalist more, they have even more skills.
If you don’t like DS it’s crazy to be playing a necro.
I do have an ele also just because something is available doesnt mean it is good.
There isn’t a wrong way to play a class otherwise we wouldn’t have trait and skill points. Instead we would have a drop down menu with premade builds.

My no support low dps necro helps more than a dps hog that tries to kill mobs before other can get to them. Plus is a lot better than the necros running around using death shroud and only being able to use 5 skills.

I believe the way the drop isn’t fair. If a player just starting the game can get a precurser as a drop on their 1st kill and a player whos been playing since beta hasn’t gotten a drop something is wrong with the system.
I know what I’m about to propose is going to upset some players but I think it will be fair. I think all precursers should be account bound and a achievement reward for every 10k mark where a player gets to choose like the zenith skins. everyone with a legendary or a precurser under 10k should have them and their skins locked until they hit that mark. This way precursers are earned and it will be completely fair to everyone.
I would like the Teq wings back because I was at the event and recieved them but due to a bug they got deleted from my bank. I did send a ticket and was told it was against their policy to return the item so it returning is the only way i can receive them.
I also have mine at 4/0/6/4/0 and i can say that it is one of my strongest chars on my account due to being able to survive most things. Who cares how much DPS u put out as long as u can survive longer than the other guy. Also I don’t believe the devs meant for PvE to be rushed through.
OP you are absolutely right about death shroud being useless. I never use it since i discovered weapons are more useful than the DS skills. Honestly I would be very happy if it was removed. Also while I play on my support guard I really hate when necros use it since it appears to me like their health drops on the squad list.
Drop teamspeak and try using Dolby Axon. My guild has used quite a bit of different voice chats and it is far the best plus it works for both PC and Macs. It is also more user friendly by far than teamspeak.
You can still charm pets but you are unable to change til lvl 5. There are still juveniles in all the main cities. From my experience there is still tameable pets in the starter areas.
I think they should put it back the way it was. I would give up the wardrobe if it meant i could remove upgrades from karma armor w/o paying gems.
I also really enjoyed the LS so far. I think there needs to be a lot more posts like this one instead of the multitude of posts complaining.
Tell them you have no idea who they are. If they get angry and hit you they are a Norn.
It is because u got limited ammo and cant waste it shooting both pistols. It is also possible u only shoot with one cause u need to reload it with your other hand.
I am against buying map completion in PvE maps but am open to the idea of doing it in WvW. I can understand how frustrating it is to have to wait weeks even months for a chance to get towers added to map completion. I’d say the cost would have to be a lot for WvW maps and it can only be done with WvW maps.
If the teq wings weren’t part of the LS and there was one of the DE 2.0 there, then why is the candy corn node there when all it was was a Halloween thing? Seems to me the Boss week would be more part of the LS than Halloween.
On my MM healing is good cause the more healing i have the more health my minions siphon to me when they attack. For weapons I use dagger/horn, scepter/focus and I also use Apothecary for armor.
IMO i think to make the necro better in PvE is for Anet to stop working mostly on the useless DS ability and focus more on other aspects of the necro.
I think shes the Professor X of humans.
Think the definition depends on the game cause on another MMO i played it was called multi-boxing. Thnx for the quick response everyone.
For those of you that don’t know multi-boxing is using 2 accounts on the same computer at the same time. Is multi-boxing bannable?
