Guild Wars 2

I doubt there is any 2vs1 KN+TC VS FA but I believe the old CD crew that moved from there to either KN or TC remember how FA and ioj were 2vs1 CD in T3 to deny CD T2 ranking up to the point that the ioj guilds transfered to FA not to fall a tier lower. These CD old players that plays now in KN are more likely focusing FA (like I do) than TC, like I guess old CD crew that plays in TC are more likely focusing FA than KN for the obvious same reason. It’s all personnal choice but no official agreement between every players from two servers…
It’s like a payback nothing personnal
I have my own reason to dislike Fort Kickaspenwood (lol), but it doesn’t mean we can’t keep the thread being civil.

- Titan War – KN – Commander – [LORD] – [CO] -

Hey TC we in KN love to play chess also… with a hammer !
Checkmate in EB.

There is some other problems with banners.
The warrior elite banner has plenty issues:
Traits doesn’t apply (nor regen nor range)
Banner can’t rez any dead player like it should
Power bonus is +35 against +140 from offensive banner…
Stability buff duration of that elite banner is max 4sec LOL

These issues should have been fix for a while now and the elite banner should be at least in par with others it’s underperforming and not deserving elite tag… Please do it, fix these.

I would love to be able to choose another skill than elite in slot 4 as the elite warrior are joke (banner is Underperforming the non-elite ones: its not rezzing at all dead player and it gives a power buff +35… and banner traits don’t apply on it).

My T3 human cultural helm is exotic with pvt stats and I love it :p (thanks to transmutation crystal)

I hope they won’t. New profession can bring imbalance more than anything else.

I don’t see the point of this at all… Someone who plays only one characer like you seem to say wouldn’t care if its character based, he would gather laurels the same way as it’s currently account based… Laurel is all fair anyone can do whatever he wants to get the items he wants, if you choose to have plenty character and gear them only with amulets from laurel rewards, it’s up to you.. like it’s up to someone else to play and choose rewards like he wants. I feel like you would want to make your own way of playing the game the only valid one. Like I said I don’t see the point, unless jealousy for nothing…

End of culling need people to rethink way of playing finally.

This trait is still not applying the range bonus it should on the banners on warriors.

There is no grind in playing wvw ! When you play a content you enjoy regulary (with no culling ftw!) then you get rewarded in time without even noticing you are in, so no grind involved. 600 point to unlock all bonuses if you get 6pt/day it takes 3month that s not so much comparing to those insane wvw titles…

Yes this update fixing culling give another dimension on wvw that is a tough work and it makes the game on an higher step now. Thanks to Anet team.
Would be please if you would give some love in the rewards items in wvw ascended typed everyone expect them to be implemented yet. Then everything would be perfect.
Thanks for all.

Well, hello I am Titan War Commander of the old Crystal Desert guild crew named [LORD] (Omega Warlord) that helped carrying them in T3 until all wvw guilds disbanded.

After last week helping BG beating JQ in T1, I decided to reform completely with new crew and we choosed to be base in Kaineng as we have a FREE transfer week now [LORD] v2 (Legend Of Red Dragon).

So I welcome every individual players looking for a new welcoming home server and guild, if you have already a guild or if you feel well on your actual server please don’t leave it! I invite new wvw players and lonewolves experimented or not and anyone who expect to work on the new wvw achievement on a new ground.

WvW focused guild, [LORD] old crew is welcome to join also and we expect a good backup on the [LORD] v2.

We provide knowledge on game mechanism, builds for each profession and task and teach wvw metagame of an optimal zerg group.

We are working with other KN guilds and we provide a lot of support for the war costs and we have our own specifics tactics that don’t rely only on zerg.

In any case Kaineng is the most welcoming place from T1/T2 that we have chosen. Much fun and much respect with our opponents.

We don’t ask bandwagonning in Kaineng but we provide the opportunity to find the place you seek for, welcoming players from T8 to the top.

Kaineng is wanting you, [LORD] is welcoming you, pst me IG and I ll send you the guild invite. I am also EU player (France) and every EU newcomers are welcome to message me in game.

Regards.

Price of precursors will probably skyrocket soon (reaching 800-1000g I bet) as we see no scavenger hunt coming in next patch…
Why it would increase in price ? There is no other ways (than the currently ones atm) to get them atm AND the total amount of gold IG is growing a lot everyday so this is the cause of the incoming inflation, that’s all…
Like IRL more money is “printed” (farming gold is like print money), less overal value the gold has itself and you need more (in quantity of gold) to acquire the same item…
More people farm gold, more they ll have to farm gold… so the only way to get rid of this inflation IG is to give people some way to acquire what they need running and playing regular content without needing farming gold, give more drops on some material and more ways to get precursors, lowering prices and impact of TP on players even if it’s only once per day per chest or per event it would be already a step against this crazy inflation curve that GW2 has created around T6mat, precursors and legendaries :p
Everyone who know this rule about inflation due to the amount of money created and available would buy a valuable item and sell it back with profit in like a month or two. Like people who bought some few month ago did. And like some people aware of this are doing actually… So Precurosrs prices won’t fall unless Anet give us another way to get one than RNG and TP.
Be happy, it’s all depending on Anet.

They starve then they farm.

Eb is belonging to us. ty for coming. Only Veloka didnt surrender :p

Congratulation BG for Rank 1 T1, happy I have taken part taking down JQ with you guys.
Now I am going back to Kaineng and I hope to see you soon. Keep being the bests in T1 until Kaineng goes up with you ^^ !!! Very impressive BG player base they are probably the new leader of T1 for long, we will see what they ll do next week.

Yes I meant Legendary’s precursors.
And like someone said previously the no cost way is to farm dungeon badges in orders to buy QL80 dungeons rewards exo weapons X4 to drop in the MF.

best is to drop exotic into MF. Get a legendary at first try last qeek (4exo at 2g50=10g) and another after 21 tries today (64 exoX2.50g =162g).
Rare into MF make you run twice the RNG, first RNG chance to get an exo, second RNG on this exo create chance that it’s a precursor… Cheaper and more chance overal with exo than rare (4rare has 1/16 to make an exotic; not saving money but just making harder to get a legendary that way, imo.) BY FAR

Only one chest per account per day per dungeon but rewards buff up with dedicated lodestone and 100% chance for at least 1 rare random item in it, tyvm…

You can nerf CoF p1, 2 and 3. I don’t care I hate dungeon: but the fact that CoF p1 is the only dungeon you can run in 7minutes make it easier to farm (and DR works very well). The fact that you can make money from CoF p1 shouldn’t be an issue because the REAL ISSUE IS THAT YOU MAKE ALMOST NO MONEY IN ANY OTHER GAME CONTENT THAT WE REALLY ENJOY (ex WvW, Fotm…) !!!!!!!!!!

Remove completely golems from wvw.
Remove completely lag of Anet server from wvw.
Ascended gears weapons and jewels for wvw badges.
Upgrade of legendary on par with ascended.
Items like gears weapons account bound on bought from TP.
Bidding fee of 5% on TP.
Fix AC dungeon.
Scavenger hunt for legendary.
2 hand axe for warrior.
and plenty more :p

burrow event can be done under 3min with ele ice bow

Okay this should be adressed to Anet to stop people complaining about TW+warrior zerk in pve environment. Somehow nerf it. Any suggestion? (Doesn’t mean I agree with a nerf…) For example keep the same value for buff and add a -50% damages and -50% accuracy -50% crit for the buff duration (these debuff are a counterpart and % can be lowered) for example^^

Guys you make me laugh with CoF p1 need to be nerf when AC has been redesign to scale up difficulty but as they didnt test it now its the path that people speed run under 10min using safe spot exploit allowing to kill Gigantus in under a minute with no dead nor damage. So AC p3 is broke you can even solo the last boss if you know where the safe spot are and this is getting ridiculous !!! If you manage normal encounter all your team rip because npc is broke and not working well. after this they need to fix AC first anyway because people are already farming it but not giving any feedback about this situation to Anet. This is getting ridiculous… AC p3 is the new CoF p1 …

what skill is needed when all is required is to hide in specifics safe places like along walls or next to some pillars?? Obviously exploiting the encounter anyone seems able to solo it… what a skill !!!! ANET please fix this it’s getting ridiculous !

AC p3 encounter is broken aka Gigantus Lupicus

@Writetyper , well I dont have problem to complete AC at all but it’s completely broken for new players, the difficulty scale for a said level 30dungeon is absurd.
P1 is easy like it was before, p2 is more fun, p3 is just broke in 2sides.
P3 if you run it without EXPLOIT you dies always and its impossible but everyone actually complete it on “safe spots” that make the fight completely a joke so easy it is… So don’t talk about such “skill” dungeon path its like broke if you manage the fight like you should (your team insta_wipe) and broke if you manage the fight in safe spots (the boss insta wipe). It s completely an encounter not working as intended and the genius are more the people farming it with the exploit way… aren’t you? What is funny is that NOONE is running to tell Anet to fix the fact that the p3 is in fact so easy and broke when exploiting that it makes it easier to farm speed run it than cof p1 btw !!!!
I personnaly disliked AC from long ago and even if it’s not revamp but redesign the scale difficulty like I should have said exactly ^^ I won’t waste any more time in dungeon just because I don’t enjoy them, and the pseudo ubber skilled player just using exploit and bragging on forum how uber they are just makes me laugh hard because I know how sadly they manage to make it.
I am a bandwagonner and I like it even if now we have to pay :p.
Finally I will just say that if I run a tank build regen banner pvt gear tank style or switch to healing shouts on soldier set up I do it easy (outside of p3 of course…)so if you go berserker on your side you are the one who has a lot more to learn about game mechanisms :p and lasting long and beating hard fight is more skillfull than being in a group making OP dps in 10sec max with no need to use any other button nor skill than this “I win” power from the mesmer well known as “time warp” !!!

Remove golems completely

Same no fun in Dungeon the scale of the final bosses is often absurd

Welcome to the “Dungeon AC revamp for more fun”

CoF p1 needs no nerf at all. If you want to nerf every game possible incomes first please fix the TP and make any gear/weapon account bound when bought, plus a fee in bidding orders. People can make as much money sticking and playing TP than people running cof p1 and there is no DR on TP…
In open world make one chest per account per day also.
Then you can consider ruining others game content.
When i needed gold i ran hundreds of cof p1 and it was not funny AT ALL but it was to finish legendary now I have done it I wvw I enjoy it.
If people need to grind CoF p1 it’s not for fun but they need gold because TP price is not fair so gold is needed. Fix the TP and prices and people won’t waste their time running cof p1.
And guess what I was used to run it in 7 to 10 min per run without being a Zerk warrior but pvt+divinity rune sword/shield + longbow and shout build !
Personnaly if they would nerf any more content I believe people will either avoid it or not play at all, and me first. See AC revamp success lol ! I will never put a feet in AC again and low level/new players after few tries of a dungeon tagged lvl30 !!! will think the same^^.
So if any change is done to make CoF harder longer or whatever … First noone running speed said he has fun doing it, second if the rewards were level up A LOT even if only once per day per toon like outdoor events then people wouldn’t farm it and would feel rewarded. Anyway overal problem is the cost of things and the poor income possible so dont nerf CoF p1 but please increase the loot at least that people will be less likely farming it for ages.

EU would win by far

Well, I have been in EB BL 24hours ago defending BG main keep from both zerg JQ and SoR.
The keep was surrounded by JQ zerg on one side and SoR zerg on the other in the closest towers.
The keep was out of supplies, no sieges, no more walls outter and inner nor gates.
There were waves of both zergs.
It was a farm fest… like someone previously said. We killed hundreds of them and they kept coming en masse :p Choo was cute and scared everytime they attempt running in ^^
SoR and JQ wasn’t hitting each others at all.
And it’s T1 material ??? Must be a joke…. I won’t give every guilds tags but if someone make a nice video of that epic fail from SoR and JQ please mail me.
Really… If Kaineng replace SoR => JQ will suffer hard believe me…
I am very disappointed in T1 it’s a level and quality of play way under T2 servers FA/TC/KN all would deserve your place 1000 times.
Overall I came to find out that I love T1 when skills beats numbers only lag can save you :p If not it would last 4 hours longer. haha
The T1 forum doesn’t look appealing neither… You guys really need to work on you.

Titan War (PS-Redguard//CD-LORD//KN-RISE//BG-XXX)

Open in BG server atm

Please follow the low bid orders and you ll see that when price fall enough to reach them they disappear before (like actually bids at 20s). I’ll explain what everyone can observe themselves. When prices were 30s to 32s people assuming prices wouldn’t fall under 30s we could see suddenly bid order stack of 5000 bid at 27s each when prices felt under 29s suddenly all these bids disappeared and went back at 25s. Bid must be taxed at 5% bid offer posted on TP to avoid this and add a gold sink.
Another thing you can see is when you access TP clicking on a mat you dropped you ll see appear cheapest seller and highest bidder=> bidding 200 items at Xs and selling about 10 items at Xs+2c when the second chepest seller is more than 20% difference with the highest bidder. It means if i click my items and see 10 for sale at 2c only more than highest bidder I ll more likely sell bidder not wasting time for 2c more, but WE DON’T SEE other bids unless we change screen and type full item name. Finally we can find out than bidder and seller take position in order to manipulate the market and make some profit, not hard to guess it’s the same person btw ; it can be consider like some kind of exploit playing TP is not an intended game content to screw all others in all impunity and I guess Anet should make the market more restrictive to limit these kind of behaviours that s all I have to say.
Myself I don’t care, I have done what I wanted in game and my toons/gears are done including legends, but I care for others, specialy if it hurts a large population of gamers here, you should also feel that it shouldn’t go this way specially if you feel like a gaming community.

I ll just say something about transmutting an item that I found out. And it affect every legendary weapons that have been transmuted to nowadays.
Actually, when you transmute two items in one to have the skin of the first one and the stats of another you can easily find out that:
1- It ll grant the highest rarity color (for legend weapon you ll keep the skin)
2- You’ll get the stats combinaison of the lower rarity item applied to the legend skin

We can find out why there ll be an issue coming in the near future with upgrading transmuted legendary weapons when stats will be upgrade to par with ascended’. If you talk to a npc seller/buyer, you’ll notice that your new legendary weapon with the cute stats you wanted on it appear at seller as the lowest rarity item ICON you used to make it with the name of the legend weapon. It means overal not only it lost it’s legendary status for ever but also that it’s only an exotic/rare item carrying the name of the legend weapon and showing its skin while playing but the coding is no more considering you are owning it but only the lower rarity weapon that you choosed to use to get the stats you really wanted.
I can’t explain better than this, overal it means you virtually has a skin but all coding is no more that weapon so no upgrade in the near future will be able to be apply on that ghost item.
Transmutting legendary means you keep the skin and the name but the stat you choosed is coded and linked to that other item you used for the stats addition. We can consider it Virtually like a Legendary weapon as it remains only being a ghosty skin and a purple name only: all the coding is about that low level item you used
Conclusion: NEVER TRANSMUTE LEGENDARY WEAPON.

Don’t see the point of removing food as everyone can have which they prefer to optimize their build it’s no way like an exploit using a pve item to break wvw rules and gain a benefit where it wasn’t intended for. It’s like this thread asking removing blessings (+6 pt all stats… lol), it’s just for the fun that people run it. Food is more efficient and there is no class restriction to use any you want only people need to invest some gold in getting some.
Food and utility are optimizing your toon in wvw.
Can you please give some argument about why you think it should be nerf btw? I mean argument context and reason etc… Paper/stone/scisor situation will not change if you remove food/utility, my thought is that it can give a bonus to smaller group running these to have a chance to take over a bigger ennemy group, so nothing bad…

Okay so I ll see what is going this next week, hope to see SoR in action most of time.

Btw 4sec cooldown is enough to kill a berzerker thief (they will have to play on their “skill” to last longer now, no more “I-Win button”) :p

On my NA account, I was YB first. I went CD then I left to go to KN, now …(atm) I am on BG… So I don’t suppose things I give objective point of view.
I have also an EU account where I play on Vizunah Square (I am EU, French).
I can post each hour pic’ of the wvw map and ppt on a 24h day in T1 to proove what i just said about the fact that atm , and you recognised it, T1 is more a 1vs1 than a 3 way fight that makes it completely unbalance for both 1st and 2nd and just a “spvp-like” experience for 3rd.
Overal conclusion is that if the 3rd server were able and willing to play the way it s intended in wvwvw T1 matchup JQ wouldn’t be 1st still but any other server involved in the match could be. So I pointed that the ability and will is in KN server for the T1 3rd place atm.

no. CoH did it it was making people running instance only and the game died. And it was farming content created by farming players. so ty, not again.

Warrior banner elite skill compared to other banners is just pitiful and it rez only npc, the most useless elite warrior skill (even if other are not great either).

Tax is fine.
They should add two things:
1- A 5% tax on bidding orders that are still free atm and mainly used by people playing market and we dont like them.
2- Items like gear, jewels, weapons that you find, drop, craft can be sold on the TP. Once bought they become account bound and can’t be sold again. Once again we don’t like people playing the market.

You seems to have more luck dropping in MF exotics weapons that you crafted yourself than any you would buy on the TP. I don’t know why but it’s what I could notice. Dropping 4 exotics weapons from dungeons tokens rewards is also a good safer and cheaper way to get a precursor.

Going for third but i hate to make world completion with another toon just for 2 more gift of discovery.

Tax is fine. I would rather implement a 5% tax in buying orders that you pay either you remove or not your order.
to limit large quantities of fakes orders that are removed as soon as prices falls with no loss for the “willing buyers”.

Its way far from what it would be worth. 3000gems per armor parts would be more likely if it would ever happen.

SoR shouldn’t make the mistake ioj made when going tiers down believing in an easy win against lower tiers opponents : that didn’t happen.

there should be a JP castle (at the end of the JP) to take and hold that gives also points and access to the chest for the server owning it and everyone would be happy and fighting to keep it would have sense.

the guardian staff behind a gate under seige attacking the zerg hitting that gate gives plenty bags also :p
