It’s repeatable.

Ancient Mariner’s Oilcloth Bag = The new underwater breather, with the frost aura.

Is it a guaranteed drop from the bag or is it yet another RNG fest on an account bound item like mini Gwynefryd?

Spend 1 day worth of dungeon tokens on potions and you ll have enough to last for several months worth of dps increase and dmg reduction. Seems like a fair tradeoff for me. Fractals are a bit more costly since you either have to craft those potions or buy them from the TP and more often than not they are rather expensive like Grawl, elemental and demon slaying potions.

P2 is the best part of SE. :<

Lots of mobs/champs to kill that give good amount of mid tier crafting mats and it’s pretty fast if your party knows what to do. And you there is a sure way to prevent it from bugging out at the escorts event.

Good guy Anet saving us from the frustration of actually playing the game.

Tried to get my daily engineer win yday so i queued up for unranked arena. After 5 min of waiting I was put in a team of solo players against 4 man premade with 1 solo and the match ended 500-0 thanks to 2 people going afk in my team after the initial push.

Was the best fun I had in pvp ever! /s

It is pretty clear that the daily bug is involved with the new daily rewards system since only levels 1-40 are affected by this and these are the same levels that have daily tasks related to them as datamined on reddit.

Fractals
Daily Fractal Boss Defeat the Jade Maw, Captain Mai Trin, or the Molten Berserker and Molten Firestorm in the Fractals of the Mists through the portal in Lion’s Arch.
Daily Scale 1–10 Fractal Complete a set of four fractals on a single difficulty level between 11 and 20 inside the Fractals of the Mists through the portal in Lion’s Arch.
Daily Scale 21–30 Fractal Complete a set of four fractals on a single difficulty level between 21 and 30 inside the Fractals of the Mists through the portal in Lion’s Arch.
Daily Scale 31–40 Fractal Complete a set of four fractals on a single difficulty level between 31 and 40 inside the Fractals of the Mists through the portal in Lion’s Arch.

Where you get the scarf?

Datamined links.

Also everyone thinking of doing fractals, don’t. Dailies are bugged across the whole range.

Did level 50 fractal before the patch and now did level 40 after the patch and didn’t get a daily chest from it.

Still gotta say that I rather like the look of my ranger.

I would assume they would be talking about the utility consumables. Potions of X slaying. Example CoF potions of flame legion slaying or scarlet armies slaying.

That’s what I’m talking about. Is there a list? :>

Always helpful when you have a dungeon related question.

Trait unlocks should be account wide per class instead of character based. New players would still have to do the trait hunting on all 8 classes but it wouldn’t discourage older players like me from creating new alts and buying more and more character slots simply because of the unnecessary gold/skill point sink even though I already experienced that content several times over and have one atleast one of each class at lvl 80.

3 Engineers.
3 Elementalists.
3 Warriors.
3 Mesmers
2 Rangers.
2 Thieves.
2 Guardians.
2 Necros.

What can I say, too much time and money and I like to play dress up on different race/armor weight combinations. 12 of them are lvl 80 and rest are getting there slowly.

I got The Mecha Anchor from my dungeoneer chest which was worth like 2,7g. :/

Then you should totally watch Clannad and Clannad: After Story for some lighthearted fun.

No. Skins will still be racially locked so you’d have to have the same race.

Geomancy and battle are much more reliable on engineer since earth and strength rely heavily on you being able to crit all the time, and since engineers have a virtually no good ways to get fury it’s far better to use on swap sigils thanks to kits.

For example rangers get much more out of on crit stuff because they have a good access to fury from trait and skill combinations.

Get a personal guild bank and invite your alt account there. After the 48 hour restriction you can transfer any amount of money and items without any limits between your accounts.

As a slight grammar kitten I feel inclined to say that the plural form is asura and not asuran.

Kinda hard to take you seriously when you just throw random numbers around. Full light armor sets costs less than 600g to craft and considering how easy it is to get money these days it’s not that much.

You could try a celestial engineer in WvW if you enjoy playing an engi. Good condi/direct dmg combined with good survivability makes an engineer a prime candidate for celestial usage.

SE p2 escorts event bug can be avoided by killing the 2 elite mobs that are with the champions before all of the 4 champs are dead. After we started doing this we’ve had a 100% success rate in Se p2.

As if we needed proof of how faceroll these builds are, but, well here it is. The goal was to tank and do everything wrong. You don’t need cooldown management, you don’t need endurance management. You make every mistake imaginable and all will be well.

If you don’t wanna sit through this hour long cancer-ebola-AIDS fest, skip to 30:17 for the Life Drink>Life Drain> Frenzied Blast> Life Drain> Life Drink combo… with no dodges. Pretty much sums it up.

Forgive the FPS caused by recording on a potato.

Also happens on a constant basis when I use my permanent hairstylist kit and i find it to be extremely infuriating.

spoj.9672:

Im still a little confused that they put resources into making mail carriers. I dont remember anyone suggesting such a thing on the forums. The popularity of that must be pretty low compared to their other gem store ventures so why did they waste resources on it?

Because they can monetize it easily.

You can always join the dungeon mentors guild being organized in the sticky post on top of this forum.

Other than that you can familiarise yourself with the paths trough gw2dungeons which has a whole host of info on mobs/bosses/encounters/skips.

“soloing a dungeon in soldiers takes more skill“ – Are you serious ?
Have you ever soloed a dungeon, have you ever compared berserker to soldiers !? I don’t know what you see as skilled but being able to facetank more hits isn’t skill for me.

Honestly, this one is a candidate for the statement of the year!

Do it and tell me if it is even possible to solo a dungeon in soldier’s.

You can solo in pretty much any gear as long as the bosses don’t have too high regeneration or you don’t fail your evades.

Others have already answered you, I have “discussed” this in several posts. Not really sure what there is left to say.

I have never seen a dungeon solo run in tanky gear and would love to see it – I don’t buy that those doing it have no options to make videos of it. If you know any videos give me the link.

Those who manage to solo a dungeon in none zerker’s gear have more skills in my opinion – I have pointed out why, others have pointed out why. So, again, give me a link so I can be proven wrong.

Not a whole dungeon but shows very well how tankier gear trivialises the content.

Tom Yzf.5872:

Do they actually blind though? I’ve seen the blind debuff on the dredge many times in the UI, but i’ve never actually seen a “missed” proc.

Yeah they get blinded but since bombers always fire multiple projectiles it’s not that obvious to see that one miss here or there.

oxtred.7658:

There’s 2 dredges types in se story vulnerable to blinds.

SE in general has bombers and the annoying ones that burrow underground that can be blinded even though their tooltip says immune to blind.

Dungeoneer title says hi.

Nevets Crimsonwing.5271:

Elite Arah soloers use cleric’s gear to solo orbs!

If they’re not thieves, yes. But it’s only one aspect of path 2, every other part is done in zerkers.

Path 2 doesn’t have orbs. Only paths 3/4. Also mesmers don’t need cleric’s to make it.

Back to the top!

’tis been a honor mingling with you ladies and gents.

Let’s just hope this won’t burnout even more of the active players.

No-one buys the dungeon trinkets – after the ascended stuff got released.
Why would they now buy them?

Yet somehow my Nightmare Coils and Plagues sell over night.

Thaddeus.4891:

The problem with Ranger Runes is that it’s probably a glitch. Don’t think that Anet really planned on this rune to work with miniature.

Well the “bug” has been there always and it has gone over 2 feature packs (one which had specific focus on runes and sigils) and it still works. Infant they only buffed it with the miniature change to make sure you always have that dmg bonus.

Inculpatus cedo.9234:

I would not think it likely. If they do another Gem Purchase promotion, they would probably use something else. Many players already have Mr. Sparkles, and as such, would not be interested.

Time to bring in the mini mystical dragon. :3

Aah this is why I love reading the forums.

Yeah let’s fight the inflation by injecting even more gold into the economy to push the prices even higher. That’ll surely go well.

Rasimir.6239:

Thanks for the explanation, Taku! The damage on the husk is mostly done by the exploding golems and doesn’t depend on my character’s stats, right? So I could change to my WvW armor (rabid with full traveler’s runes) to get a base 25% speed increase in case the swiftness runs out?

As far as I know only thing affecting the dmg on it is the amount of vuln he has when a golem blows up next to him so feel free to put on your other set (provided it’s fashionable enough).

Rasimir.6239:

CoE p2: the evolved husk. What is so special about mesmers that they’re expected to solo that fight? And what do you have to look out for if you do? I have to admit, I have never even tried to solo it, and most of the time when I’m in there with guildies the husk is down even bevor I know what’s going on .

If your party is smart enough to give you good amounts of swiftness you can run around the room aggro the golems and pull them to the Husk with temporal curtain. Goes faster than 4 people running around the room but still not as fast as 2 people in the opposite sides of the room with the guns.

SE is fun simply because it’s fast to do and gives decent loot from mobs and champion bags. Especially p2.

You can just report your own post and moderators will move the thread to where it belongs.

Lelouch.8745:

It takes a special kind of boredom for me to resort to this sort of behavior.
Needless to say I was kicked immediately afterwards

Those filthy elitist ruining the game with their toxic attitude. You should totally go make a thread on the general discussion to let everyone know about this.

Still waiting for bunny ears and wide-rim glasses.

Intreating data as usual. Keep up the good work. :)

Eternity will not be account bound when it comes out of the forge even if your sunrise and Twilight were bound to your account. Jus make sure you equip them before crafting the eternity so you can get the points for your legendary collector achievement.

not exactly.
yes, no matter the bound status of sunrise and twilight, eternity will come out of the forge unbound (you can sell it on the TP)
but, you don’t need to bind sunrise and twilight first. skins get unlocked when you remove them from the market. either by binding them, ‘deposit into collections’ (which account-binds it), salvaging, or forging. By making eternity, you are forging sunrise and twilight. It will unlock those skins when you forge eternity. It will also unlock both dawn and dusk skins when you forge eternity.

I know that the skins get unlocked when you forge the swords but afaik you won’t get the credit towards Legendary Collector achievement if you forge them without binding them to your account first.

Eternity will not be account bound when it comes out of the forge even if your sunrise and Twilight were bound to your account. Jus make sure you equip them before crafting the eternity so you can get the points for your legendary collector achievement.

Of course they have “stuff” under work but the question is will that bring us actually good content for endgame pve/pvp/wvw or will it be another trait/NPE fiasco that no one asked for.
