This is not the only thread which (spelled like this? had a few beers) admirers of said song, https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/audio/Would-anyone-happen-to-know-the-song-at-the-end-of-the-Unholy-Ground-Quest/first#post4495713

I understand there might be some legal issues within the company restricting You from just releasing the song, and other audio, but I think many of the unreleased files might have a bigger fanbase than You think of now

Hi Azure, Obal has covered the PvE Guardian builds in his sticky here https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/professions/guardian/Guide-DPS-Guardian-for-PVE

You could give the Hammer + GS Max Utility = 3/5/0/4/2-build a shot

PVE Might Stacking Build (Zerker)

Vikkela.7261

Those are some nice rotations for Might Stacking. Thanks for sharing

Also, if you have a Warrior in your party, all their banners skill #5 is a blast finisher, and banner of Discipline additionally has a 8 second basic fury with its #2. Basically everyone in the party can pick up a banner and blast a fire fieldd field but I rarely see anyone doing it

Since you want to be supportive, I’d say go for the 4/5/0/0/5 which traits you can modify to give a huge amount of support while doing DPS http://gw2skills.net/editor/?fVMQNAR8dlsApZo9CxVI8DNR8Ql7Y8i2+BtQlBQDA-TxRBwAX3fIiSwiK/up+DKdDIM/B4JAIGA9A-e

You can check out Obals guide in the Guardian forums, it’s there between the stickies. There are many more DPS-orientated build found there as well.

This new system really supports bullying and griefing of instances, it does not change even though you delete my posts and infract me. With the old system you were able to moderate your instance and keep griefing at bay, does it come as a surprise a huge wave of kicking and trolling started as soon as the new “improved” system was released?
And that post from Chris Cleary is a pretty big finger towards anyone selling, I am uncertain how an employee is allowed to post such things. We, customers, are able to read between the lines you know.
Fine – you do not support selling, it’s ok. You don’t have to. I am not a dungeon seller. But what you are supporting is disgusting behaviour from griefers now by standing idle and going “haha you should not be using the LFG-tool in the first place” – leaving me and other players without any tools to protect ourselves from them, since you are not going to help either. I assume you are aware of that it does not only affect sellers but allow griefing in normal runs and instances too?

I don’t want to sound mean but im actualy very against dungeon selling and in some way even glad people who do it becomes scarces because of that kind of haters. I wouldn’t openly support what they do but I wouldn’t report them for it either. I personnaly think dungeon shouldn’t be for sale to begin with.

Good motivations would be nice to hear why you are against people supplying to the demand of a huge amount of players, thus supporting thieves stealing from the men doing the labour

[Video] No weapons roaming and dueling

in Thief

Posted by: Vikkela.7261

Vikkela.7261

I tried building my meditation guard to specifically counter condition builds, especially the thief one with pistol, with as much condition removal as possible on him, still every so called fight – if it could be called so – ended horribly for me with condition cleanses on cooldown. Nothing fun on even meeting these guys anymore, if I see a thief with condition food I just go away.
So I finally dragged myself to these forums to find the build they are using so I can level up at thief and see what it is all about, and I see this thread with a video where good players with high PvP ranks get wrecked without the thief even using weapons. I don’t know what to say… Profession Balance forum is full of thieves wanting nerfs to Rangers while they have this…

Vikkela.7261

Your best friend in PvE would be having at least 3 points Radiance which allows you spam your F1 throwing out constant blinds on enemies and pumping short amounts of might in yourself and allies alike

That room in CoFp2 is a mess anyways where everyone ends up running around, only with high dps the mobs will die so fast they don’t have time to swarm the room – doesn’t happen with pugs.
So, since everyone will be running around there looking for the assassins, your Consecrations will be mostly useless, bring shouts to that room, especially Stand your Ground. Affects mobile allies just as well as if they would stay still.

Berserker gear is difficult to survive in the beginning because you need to be able to time your Aegis and blinds correctly, but when you learn to blind them it gets much better. Shelter, Focus #5 (can be used at all times) and Renewed Focus will further increase your survivability. Even the leap from Greatsword #3 can function as a quick “oh kitten”-button to buy you a few seconds to get your skills from cooldown

Get onto Borderlands
Enemy capping north camp
I go to north camp

Enemy is a Guardian and Longbow ranger
I look at the enemy. More lootbags

I start running and what do I get? Longbow ranger knockback. I dodge Rapid Fire.

I teleport next to the ranger. I watch him go full panic mode when his health drops in a few seconds while his Guardian friend waves his staff around and throws symbols around the camp

I say “More Rangers should play full glasscannon longbow”

Later I have annoying fight with roaming thief. A large dagger howls. I fail to use any skill. I get backstabbed and die after 2 hits on me in a timespan of 0.000000000069 seconds.

RIP.

Vikkela.7261

I really don’t consider it to strong, the necro already have that ability to rip bons why not us we only have one easy acces condition ( burning ) and that barely deal some damage. Why not juice it up like what they done to rangers ?

I am not considering its current form too strong either, it’s quite nice, since you don’t need to use a single trait, rune or sigil to keep proccing burning on an enemy with your attacks because VoJ does it for you. You don’t even have to think of your burning damage when using it, you can go full power meditation guard and still get that might stripped from that Ele

Of course if Anet decided to lower the CD i wouldn’t be complaining, I like getting buffs

Hmm… A lower cooldown could quickly make it too strong, it’s not that hard to apply burns since VOJ does it automatically regardless of build. Currently I’m trying it out on my Mediguard to remove might from eles, it feels fine. With lower CD I think it would be too much considering other players since you’d only need to autoattack them and strip them constantly from boons

New Solution: Party Leaders

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Vikkela.7261

Vikkela.7261

There could be a couple problems with this, however. It could, for example, end up being abused by people trying to sell dungeon paths to other people.

Has anyone actually seen this happen, sellers kicking customers? I have only heard of it happening the other way around (which the current and improved system greatly supports).
Ruining the reputation of sellers would be bad for his and his colleagues future business

Bring back instance owner

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Vikkela.7261

Vikkela.7261

I wrote before the patch that I don’t like the idea of getting rid of instance owner, and I’ll be writing it again.
Why can’t there be an option to have an instance leader or not? Have an option when creating a party if you want to be the instance leader, the ones who don’t want it would leave it out. Then in the description people can see and choose a path that has the one of their liking, the group with a leader could have a star or something next to it. Everyone would win, nobody would be on the mercy of griefers anymore, who the current system just supports.

Btw, I don’t do dungeons anymore without friends or guildies. Max 1 pug allowed

Well I did this when the Strength Runes came out reworked and my boon duration build died off so I wanted to test them out on a build based on the “Max Utility = 4/5/0/0/5” from Obals guide, ending up moving the 4 points from Zeal to Honor instead for Empowering Allies. Aiming on keeping might up easily thanks to the long duration and the ability to spam blind and vulnerability with Virtue of Justice while still being able to remove conditions partywide and switch quickly between Consecrations and Shouts keeping me only switching stuff in utilities for each encounter so I don’t need to mess around with traits in middle of dungeons since I every freaking time forget to switch them back. So now I can easily switch between WoR, Hallowed Ground, SyG and Retreat without getting increased cooldowns, only the rare encounters for Spirit Shield needs to swap 1 trait.

Blast on Purging Flames with Focus and picking up a Warriors banner for skill #5 gives iirc 6 stacks of ~37 seconds of might to start the stack with

The idea of this was to bring support/condi cleanse without losing too much DPS while not being totally reliant on other classes to be the ones who bring all the Might, I felt like I wanted to participate in the Might stacks too.

Was never a serious thing, just had some fun while creating and testing it even though the joy of getting to test the runes cost me 87g
