Why are Krytan weapon of the night so expensive?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Verdelet Arconia.6987

Verdelet Arconia.6987

it could be an indirect and safer form of real money trading.

1)the gold buyer wants to buy 100 gold from gold farmer.
2)the farmer tells gold buyer to put lvl25 masterwork weapons with a regular krytan skin and a minor sigil of the night attached at a specific high price in the tp.(the specific high price is actualy an indicator to the gold farmer)
3)the farmer buys the specific vl25 masterwork weapons with a regular krytan skin and a minor sigil of the night and the gold buyer gets his 100gold without any direct transaction.

to differentiate between his customers,he can just instruct buyer A to put lvl 25, Buyer B to put lvl 30, Player C put lvl 35 etc.

this method will result in loss of gold thru TP tax but its much safer than direct money transaction between 2 party thru mailing system.

Although possible, I find it unlikely.

The gold seller can never identify his client’s item to buy and can’t control which item to purchase. So he can never be 100% sure who’s sell order it is. Say you have 5 items listed at 1G. Which one does he buy?

the answer to ur question is already in my previous post. “Specific High Price”

give u an exaggerated example so that its easier for you to digest.

how much is ecto price now?30-40+silver each. our code is 1234567

i instruct you to put up 3 ecto in the tp with the selling price of 123 gold 45 silver,67 copper each.after doing so,you let me know
once u put it in the tp,i buy it from u at that price.
i know its you because of the specific high price.
very unlikely someone else would waste their tax deposit for listing an item at an incredibly high price since they will lose the tax deposit if nobody buys it and he needs tto relist the item at reasonable price.

the gold farmer would most probably use a non commonly used item and something a normal person would overlook in the tp,but it has to be something disctinct for identification like a certain weapon type,the name and the sigil on it,all this will make it easier for him to pinpoint the gold buyers eq

Rating System Average Team or Average player?

in PvP

Posted by: Verdelet Arconia.6987

Verdelet Arconia.6987

I hope that the ranking and rating is individual based so no matter solo or in a team,player is judged by his performance and not the outcome of his team carrying his weight if the player is not worthy. Thus solo players can still compete and have good rankings/ratings though not as effectively as premades. This way SPVP won’t lose out on its solo players fan base. The criteria for ratings should be balanced and made known to us properly,bunkers and GC should have a balance way to be rated for good play.

Bunkers and rank points

in PvP

Verdelet Arconia.6987

Standing on a captured cap point looking like a scarecrow whilst ur team mates are 4 vs 5 at the other 2 points is not good teamplay.If you request for passive rank points whilst doing nothing,you will only create a new breed of useless player who just stay at cap points and afk.5 person at cap point A,afk for glory and rank points,5 person at cap point B,afk for glory and rank points.These hotjoin glory farmers playstyle will be passed on to those new in spvp.There ppl will then come to tpvp n do the same thing.

currently i would say the rank points is fairly balanced and rewards the different roles.

when a bunker and a roamer approaches an undefended cap point,the bunker would stay gaining 10 points for Objective neutraliser and another 10 points for Points Captured.The roamer if he is not a hotjoin hero would have moved on and missed out on 20 points.

should the point becomes contested,the roamer returns to help the bunker. Even though the bunker does not deal much dmg to the enemy,as long as his teammate kills that enemy,the bunker will still gain 5 points for Kill and 10 points for Objective defender.

the bunker being a bunker will most probably not get downed as fast as his other teammates who are not bunker build so bunker builds are mostly the ones who revive people in cap points battle-teammate revivals give 10 points.

when a bunker and a roamer approaches a defended cap point as long as the bunker has dealt some dmg to the enemy there, and the bunkers teammates finshed off the enemy,he will get objective assaulter-10points.Once the area is safe,the bunker will stay to neutralise it and then cap it for 20 points.The roamer if he is not a hotjoin hero would have moved on and missed out on 20 points.

Taking all the above into consideration,i would say a bunker and a roamer who play their part unselfishly will still get a rather balanced reward of rank points.

Robert Hrouda on pets in dungeons

in Ranger

Posted by: Verdelet Arconia.6987

Verdelet Arconia.6987

Dear Robert

Since it might take a few months to give pets a better AI and better combat response.Can we use a simpler fix whilst waiting for that?

The problem with pet melee attack is that the pet requires to stop in its track and perform the attack animation,this will give ample time for a moving target to just get out of the way without using dodge or evasion.My suggestion would be to give all pet melee attack a hidden extension of range for example 400 units.The rooting effect will still happen with the attack animation but the actual dmg is ranged and will hit the target from a distance since by the time the attack animation starts,the target would be a few units away from the pet.This hidden extension of range should not be too far or else it will be too OP.

Problem with ranged pet attacks is that the projectile moves too slow.Another simple fix is using a part of “Beam technology” the one they mentioned in march SOTG for mesmer. By extending the width/radius of the projectile attack, it will increase the likelihood of hitting a strafing target via a wider beam hit zone.Piercing will be a bonus.

Hope this 2 fix can be implemented in the meantime until they come up with a better pet AI and combat response.

Thanks Robert

if only the devs realise there is a simple fix to this problem, just give all pet melee attack a hidden extension of range for example 400 units.The root will still happen with the attack animation but the actual dmg is ranged and will hit the target from a distance since by the time the attack animation starts,the target would be a few units away from the pet.This hidden extension of range should not be too far or else it will be too OP.

Posted by: Verdelet Arconia.6987

Verdelet Arconia.6987

i decided to use my ranger n play like a bunker to understand what the OP is complaining about but I don’t see any difficulty getting high score though.

I defended the cap point n killed only at that cap point., went to a cap point,claimed it,defended it thruout the match,killed 11 invaders at my cap point,res my ally 3 times n i have 200+ points.

Seems like the scoring system is fine.
killing gives 5 points,killing at cap point whislt defending it gives additional 10 points.

Are you serious? Watch these ranks and now tell me again, are you serious???
That’s like saying, I’m skilled because I reach 300 points in hotjoin. Play against real players and then tell me again how easy it is to gain points on bunkering a node.

hotjoin huh?ranks?real players? sorry mr elitist ,i’m just showing the OP that killing a person at a self defended cap points gives 15 points in total,5 for kill,10 for defending at cap point. This is with regards to the OP saying bunkers not getting much rank points.

When rankings is out and if its separate for solo joiners and premade teams, kindly fix the solo join method as any solo joiners who becomes leader of roster can kick others and invite their player of choice. This way solo-joiners can become premades actually to go up the rankings fast.

a good necro in a team really helps,since ur conditions bypass their toughness and go straight to their hp pool. had a nice fight alongside this necro in 4vs 5 in tpvp since most new players in spvp/tpvp tend to go glass cannon.

easiest way to please everyone is to make the dragon an instanced event. You just go to the map,activate an object that gives u the option to warp to the instanced event,a party can join u,limited to 1 chest per dragon per account per day.Difficulty will be scaled to 5 person. you can fight dragons with ur frens at ur own convenient timing this way without the problem of overflows,lags or getting trolled by timer.

Hey Robert,would u kindly add this new point into the list if you think its reasonable.Most people might think its not related to dungeon but they probably didn’t know Bloody Mary from CM explore dungeon path 1.

A Ranger Pet hound has a good sense of smell,even though an enemy can hide in stealth,the pet should still be able to smell and track that enemy. Other profession handle enemy stealth by using AOEs,hopefully ranger can use their pets instead since our aoe is mostly utility dependent,not weapon skill dependent like other professions.

My ulterior motive is to be the bane of thieves actually haha

It kinda of tracks already. If you send a pet to attack prior to the stealth the pet will be on him the moment he unstealths. Combined with culling fix and the proposed cool down before restealthing we should be in a decent place after this next patch, at least in this regard.

I forgot to mention the pet should be able to attack whilst the enemy is in stealth _. Thanks for pointing out

Verdelet Arconia.6987

It says so right there in the tooltip – and on the wiki. In my experience, “allies” includes self; perhaps that’s not the case with the ranger, but I don’t see why there should be an inconsistency (unless of course its a bug).

Then I thought to myself, “why not just sign in and test it?” Fighting chieftain, Healing spring periodically removed conditions from my ranger. Maybe this was bugged in the past and recently fixed, who knows, but it most certainly removes conditions periodically over 15s (I didn’t test enough to pin down the interval).

As for your condition removal being pet dependent, we’ve gone over that. Yes, there are stipulations for it, but the current popular Ranger specs (Traps, beastmastery) have pets that are often close to them – in the current meta, Rangers have strong condition removal. That might change if Anet every delivers on spec diversity, but at the moment its true.

“Create a spring that heals you, your pet, and your allies. It also cures conditions on allies”

Thank you for the testing, i took the tooltip description at face value and didn’t test it myself after seing that it only states “also cures conditions on allies” thus i assumed ranger n pet is not included for the condition removal part compared to how the first statement was sentenced.

I apologise for my ignorance and for the misinformation I’ve previously given in my first post .I’ve edited it accordingly.

1)not all rangers use traps, those are builds best suited for conquest maps only

Ehm…do you know that the whole gw2 pvp is actually based on conquest right?

Hotjoin much?

i had WVW in mind when i made that statement.
Nopes,i’m not a hotjoin player ,just a solo tpvp player mostly since feb

3) Rangers have at minimum competent condition removal, excellent in some specs. While those excellent options might be locked into some specs, they are currently in what are considered the rangers best specs – so right now, Rangers have excellent condition removal. Lets not forget Healing spring, which also pulls conditions off, and is spec independent.

1) has already been answered
2)ifrom my limited field of vision and experience,i would say warrior is best for pve,mesmer/ele best for pvp
3)i craft for these following reasons
a)for the master crafter title
b)for crafting legendary ingredients
c)fast way to lvl up to 30 for each character using 2 crafts each
d)for making nourishments
e) maxing the crafts now in case future updates extend it to lvl 400+ for better items.That way i don;t have to deal with increasing prices of materials at that point in time when many people suddenly want to lvl up their crafts from lvl 1 to 400. I can just focus on the mats for lvl 400+

for salvaging this is my method
Blue and green-Sell
Yellow-Salvage using mystic/master kits
Orange-Salvage using black lion kits
White-salvage using basics kits

for exotics-i will check the price b4 salvaging, whole item compared to rune+globs price at the point in time

You have to take into account what the actual competitive builds are. Ranger has one of the best condi removal on bm builds. Who gives a kitten about the wiki? What matters is what is actually being used. In this regard Mesmers are the absolutely worst at removing condis, having zero condi removals in this meta

I’m looking at the wiki with regards to mesmer and condition removal, nearly as bad as rangers but still not as limited as rangers with regards to condition removal on self. The options is there for mesmer,but as you say about competitive build,to put cond removal options for the mesmer might make him lose his edge. But i say that is a self imposed limitation the player made with regards to his ideal build,not a lack of overall option.

I never talked bout conditions removers on ranger….. Where on earth did you came up with that? I never talked about rangers ability to remove conditions… :/
Please read again my post, if you didn’t understood what I sad.

i’m telling you how to kill a ranger,using conditions since we can’t remove them after using what limited cond removal we have. Because if you had that knowledge, you would not have made this topic in the first place

Not in tPvP. They are on the top spots for condition removal.

Edit: Every class has some condition removal and warriors even have some decent. But the shout build nor some other builds from other classes have so much viability as the mainstream builds.

ah sorry Best Guardian in Asia,i wasn’t clear with my last statement, Rangers have the least condition removal with regards to conditions applied to the ranger.

Role of the Ranger?

since you said hypothetically we’re buffed,that would mean including spirits and pet AI and dps. so for dungeons we would be good party buffers with 3+1 spirits buff, spotter trait,healing spring for water field,bonfire for fire field,good long range dps,pet manipulation for tank/kite/luring

Role of the Ranger?

in Ranger

Posted by: Verdelet Arconia.6987

Verdelet Arconia.6987

Ranger will start the skirmish as “master’s of long range”.once the melee class has engaged into combat,ranger will then pull out and add the pressure of sustained long range dmg added with pet damage or CC.Ranger will also aid to hunt fleeing enemies. Ranger should be the beginning and the end for skirmishes.Thats the role that i can see fit for ranger.

What would it take for you to use spirits?

in Ranger

Posted by: Verdelet Arconia.6987

Verdelet Arconia.6987

i can think of one more effect

when spirits get attacked,the attacker gets conditions for 5 seconds per attack based on the spirits element.the more he attacks,the more the condition duration stacks. Sun spirit-Burn,Frost spirit-Chills,Earth spirit-Immobilsied,Storm spirit-daze(1 second,not 5 like the rest) the elite spirit absorbs all damage and convert them to healing to all allies.

this way,i don’t mind my spirit getting attacked,i still benefit from it

Hi everyone. The purpose of this thread is to show the newer players that this game is heavily dependent in time investment. So please don’t be discouraged if you see someone with 3 or more legendary,they might have put in 3000hours+ just to farm them. So we please share and post your Lifetime Statistics so that the new player have a rough idea how much time is invested to get a certain amount of accomplishments ingame.

This will be the format I will use to show the lifetime stats.

Choose ur top 3 nemesis,EG Bunker ELE,shatter mesmer,perma stealth thief.

Choose ur fav profession,make a build to counter the above 3.

If you have friends who use the above 3 you can duel them,everytime you lose,tweak your build accordingly to the reason of your defeat,if you can’t find friends,not to worry,those abovementioned 3 profession and build is so common in spvp you’re bound to run into them.

After awhile you realise that certain profession will be hard to beat due to superior trait/weapon/utility synergy thus that’s why people use these builds and profession.

Alternatively you can look for someone using the same profession and duel them,learn from defeat,what weapon skills,utilty,trait,eq,combos they used etc.

people with no skills can easily farm glory/rank points in hotjoin to get the high lvl pvp titles so don’t worry when fighting anyone with avenger/ransacker titles.

But do play with extra caution when fighting people with Champion Profession titles coz these people don’t get the titles from silly and skill-less hotjoins.

tPvP: Ranger Situation

the pictures are taken from tournaments,i usually solo join so my teammates are all different but my score is more or less consistent thus meaning ranger can fit in teams well. But rangers are not as OP as mesmers/thieves and ele so we got to work abit harder hehe

Personal favourite so far is Condition Signet ranger and Healing Beastmaster. I tweak my build every week and overhaul them everymonth so I can’t recall the exact traits for some of the picture. but the latest one is 0/0/30/10/30

Dear Robert,

Thieves has incredible dmg for offence and incredibly annoying stealth for mitigating most of their enemies offence.

Can ranger and/or pet have incredible dmg for offence as well?

Please buff our ranger and/or pet dmg so that all we need to do is press 5 buttons to kill someone with 3.2k toughness under 5 seconds

press first button = 4.2K dmg
press second button two times = 9.2k dmg
press 4th button = 3.2k dmg
press 5th button =7.8k dmg
24.4k dmg under 5 secs,pressing 5 buttons only awesome balance

I think mesmers need to be nerfed

These two class mechanics require skill to counter — more so than any other class in the game (go ahead and pick one — no other mechanics compare)

unfortunately the amount of dmg they deal is just too high for using simple skills especially thieves . below is an example on my ranger with 3.2k toughness,1.1k healing power,i used up all my utility in a previous skirmish so this thief killed me under 5 seconds flat.

4k steal,7k backstab,2 times HS for 9k,3k cloak n dagger.

he pressed around 5 buttons only
