Guild Wars 2

It really isn’t that much of trouble, but if Anet would consider remove dredges’ invulnerable buff when they first spawn, it will most definitely make it faster.

sorrow’s furnace is now contested

jade quarry is still uncontested

No I am not talking about account history of buying gems, I am talking about account full history for items purchase with gems.
I recently log into my Elementalist which I haven’t play for a while, and I notice my mining pick is gone.
It seems odd to me because I remember to have bought Molten Alliance Mining Pick for all my character at the time, but I am not sure.
So is there a way to check full history of gem item purchase to make sure I have bought all my characters Molten Alliance Mining Pick or I just forgot to buy one for my Elementalist?

Is there any possibility that some npc’s armor/clothing can be release to players?

Thank you all. Got my PTV equipments!

And patch….

I have no problem about low AR in my fractal lv48 guild run, but if pug use signet build or I see a Sigil of Luck. /instant kick

Look people, what OP saying here is pretty clear. We should always climb the mountain to get across it instead of finding other valid solution like build a tunnel or walk around it.

Kirbyprime.2645:

If anyone still remembers levels 1-10, there are mobs that do actually dodge out of attacks. For some reason mobs at level 80 forget this. You see archers and mage type mobs stay in melee range, only 1-2 will bother using knockback.

Imagine how hard certain encounters would be if bosses blinked away from fights, dodged out of 100 brades, dropped lava fonts and so on.

Sometimes I wonder if people are playing the same game as me or just choose to ignore some content because they don’t run it.

Thank you all for answering.

Unblockable missiles, what are they?

I just want the fractal sword.
3 Speargun, 3 Shield, 2 Warhorn, 2 Pistol, 2 Staff, Longbow, Mace, Dagger
Kitten RNG.

RNG is RNG.
Yesterday I did lv48 and first 3 chest gave me some blues and white salvageable.
At Maw I got one exotic warhorn from colossus and 2 exotic trinkets plus one charged Lodestones from chest.

All my toons, most of them are mix and match.

For Cliffside:

The las part have a good dificult, the problem is when you make a mistake and ruins all run. Solution: if you wipe reset mobs correctly (back to 2 mobs in each seal)

Funny because a few days ago I was in a lv48 group, our last map was Cliffside and for some reason both arm seals’ first two chanter are kill. We did manage to get it done with thief stealth break one side but it was still doable.

That analogy may be be true if player in full zerker can somehow cause serious injury to any bypassing players and every player only has one life.

I do recommend full zerker for PvE contents in GW2 for many reasons.

1. Force player to dodge. Be mindful about the situation and encounter.
2. Because no one really know for sure how aggro works in GW2.
3. Most effective tanking in game does not come from gear stats, it is the condition CC like Blind/Chilled and boons like Aegis/Protection.
4. The most effective healing is each player’s #6 skill, and HP scale poorly.
5. Speed up a dungeon run.

For those who insist on using most other gear, I have no objection about it, it is their play-style and choice.
However, I do not want said player in my party, just like player using MF gear or 5 signets players.

3 Harpoon Guns, 3 Shields, 2 Warhorns, 2 Staffs, Mace, Pistol, Dagger from my 3 months of daily fractal lv28/38/48.

It is near impossible to gather “correct” data on the Fractal Skin drop rate from forum.

It is best we just ask for another way to acquire skins from fractal.(i.e. change to token base mix with shards or put 4 skins into mystic forge to get an random one)

Trollhammer.7439:

Like obal said, final boss is considered elemental. Tbh carrying around pots for this single encounter seems like a waste.

Jees Troll, have you ever consider not everyone can solo tank him like a boss(i.e. Trollhammer.7439.)

If you have a player that is really good at dodging and knows what they are doing, have him/her tank the boss face away from the party and make the party stay 900+ range him.

I suppose Powerful Potion of Elemental Slaying will help greatly in this case if group AoE dps is low and your character build doesn’t require other food buff.

A good group set up will also help in this case.

Solo.9027:

thisisu.7504:

Hang onto them, IMO.

I’d turn those coe tokens into ecto..

I don’t think he need ectos, he had some in bank that means he already got 250ecto in depositble bank.

I did turn those fractal relic into skill points or another fractal capacitor or 20slot bags.

Zenith.7301:

The only bad PvE classes are necros and rangers. The rest can get by pretty well, although the engineer is just overshadowed in utility and everyone else is overshadowed by the warrior for speed runs.

Disagree about necros, they provide great DoT Dps and offensive support on mobs.

A pro epidemic necro can significantly speed up a fractal run.

3 Harpoon Guns, 3 Shields, 2 Warhorns, 2 Staffs, Mace, Pistol, Dagger.

Bunch of useless rings/ascended crafting materials/relics/pristine relics.

Working on my FOURTH glowing Fractal Capacitor. (Already got 3, so that is 1350*3+500*9=8550 fractal relic and 6*250=1500 ectos.)

3 months of fractal dailies, STILL HASN’T GOT THAT KITTEN FRACTAL SWORD.

Can we please change the daily bonus fractal weapon skin to token base now?

Also:
- Fractals do not award guild influence or count for Monthly Dungeon Participation despite being a dungeon.
- Entry to a Fractal level is determined on a per character basis and is not account based.

OP, you group will have some trouble if you got Cliffside/Snowblind/Ascalonian/Underwater.

I run lv48 fractals with my Guardian and Thief, IMO thief is not a unwelcome class for fractals, a support thief is great addition to any team.

1. Dungeon instance ownership transfer.
When previous instance owner left, the dungeon remain open and players in the party remains in dungeon.

2. Fractal weapon skin purchase with fractal token/shards.
RNG is bad!

3. Guild roster panel member last login/represent date.
For easier guild management.

4. Blocked means block!
Still see blocked player message in /say and /guild.

5. Commanders’ ranking system.
So we can tell which one of them is good or bad.

6. Dueling system.
Pretty please?

Runing Fractal lv38/48 almost daily, lv28 if I have extra time.

So far I have , 3 Shields, 3 Harpoon guns, 2 Warhorns, 2 Staff, Dagger, Pistol, Mace and 15+ infused rings.(Another thing I notice is that I got a lot of doubles, same ring and same skin etc)

I already have 3 fully upgraded glowing Fractal capacitors for my main and two alts, working on my 4th one.

Skin I am going for ever since FotM is announce is that kittene Fractal Sword.

So last night my guild run fractal lv38, 3 frequent fractal runners with one casual and one pug.

The casual got the sword.

If it only happen once, I guess it just RNG.

But no it wasn’t, because the day before yesterday SAME THING HAPPENS ON DIFFERENT CASUAL.

Is there anything in the work for Fractal Weapon skin to be purchase by fractal tokens?

For the love of God please say yes, I don’t know how much more disappointment I can take before I quit.

p.s.(Didn’t get my first ring after 30 daily runs and that was before daily token was added.)

I have problem with this one:

—Ranged attacks, Scepter Guardians, Pistol Thieves, Rangers, Rifle Warriors, Thieves

Keep in mind I mainly run high level fractals(38/48) with my guardian and thief(both 35AR)

Scepter is the only 1200 range weapon a guardian can use with a offhand weapon.

It offers immobilize and vulnerability every 20 seconds.

IT IS A MUST HAVE FOR HIGH LEVEL FRACTALS.

I am NOT saying using ONLY scepter the entire run, my main weapon is Greatsword.(with staff, hammer, mace and focus in my inventory to swap depend on situations)

But when my defensive skills are on cooldown and some boss that are just not melee friendly(dredge, cliffside, ascalon and grawl) I just have to switch to scepter to for range dps with mobility to move around.

We clear on Guardian using scepter in certain cases?

As for thieves in general, are you kitten serious?

When a thief is in party you have AoE blind/weakness/poison/cripple/stealth AND SMOKE SCREEN.

When you say pistol thief not sure if you are just talking about p/p or any pistol thief.

My thief use p/p on boss in fractals with either shortbow/pd/dp to swap.

Do you know with a thief you can finish dredge bomb in 2 trips without death?

Do you know Basilisk Venom is the only stun that ignores Defiant?

Do you know Shadow Shot is a great way to gather those Jade Colossus?

Do you know with almost full up-time of AoE blind and weakness on Ascalonian vets means no one is getting “one shot down”?(Unless they stand in mage fire circle, not much you can do here.)

Do you know Smoke Screen absorb Old Tom’s poison whirlwind?

How much do you know about thief?

Support thief works great with a team that know what they are doing.

Rifle warriors, they have great single target range dps, nuff said. I am okay with them as long as its boss only.

I am okay with rangers as long as there is no more than 2 in a party.

My personal pet-peeves in dungeons:

1. 4+ Signet warriors, because Justice Is So Great and you are out.

2. Magic Find in general. I am okay with it as long as only use on grinding part(Dredge, Jade Maw) But not full dungeon and not on boss.

3. Spirit Weapon Guardian, I am okay with them if use underwater, with shield as exception.

4. All time Full pet Necro, every single one full pet necro I run into have L2P problem.

My thief build for lv30/40+ fractals.

Full zerker armor with divinity rune, rampager weapon[have sb, dd, pp in inventory to change depends on situation] and zerker/rampager trinkets.

JaironKalach.4938:

I’m trying to understand why the bots would have ever bought gems? That seems like the worst move they would make with their gains. Their purpose is typically to fund gold-sellers… I don’t see where there would be value for them in buying gems.

Bots don’t buy gems, player who buy gold does. RMT is bad.

Endrance.1680:

This is not at all what I’m saying. What I’m saying is that botting was a huge issue when this game launched and it lasted about 3 months. The dev’s made it known that they were working on the botting problem and did not hide it. During that time a large sum of gold was poured into the trading post. I want to know how much it effected the economy. I’ve stated this multiple times. Before you go on posting what you think I’m saying, read again. Don’t use my opinions to make some bogus statement that player population to bot population is 1:1. You came up with that garbage, not me.

How long do you think a bot will last? Few weeks but no more than a month is what I got from Dev’s post.

And during these few weeks bots earn the large sum of gold you mention, which is not enough to effect the market as a whole and is state by Mr. John Smith(Who has the data and the tool to prove it!)

Farming is not a very good way of acquiring gold, a player who do CoF speed run few hours per day will earn even larger sum of gold than a bot can earn whole day.

I did come up with 1:1, which is greatly inspire by your personal opinion.

This mysterious bots army which earn large sum of gold since launch is getting really tiresome, and I can tell you the player base as a whole is definitely earning more than that.

Endrance.1680:

Again this thread was meant to be constructive. Cute though.

Constructive? IMO this thread is almost like a joke.

You opinion is that bots makes huge impact to the game economy because “you think” bots have higher/just enough contribution to the market than players.

And a Dev with actual data tell you that whatever you think about bots, they are not as effective to the market as you were to solely believe from “your own personal experience.”

If your opinion and your facts are true, Guild Wars 2 bots to players population ratio would be close to 1:1, but in reality is no where near that amount.

Finished it at lv48, lv38 and lv28 last night.

Group: 2 warriors, 1 necromancer, 1 guardian and a thief.

After 2nd door open, necromancer and one warrior die on pressure plate. One warrior and guardian gather all aggro and kite all dredge to the outside bridge, thief go in stealth and use control.

The control takes about 20 seconds, one thief along with one spykit can finish it as long as thief is not interrupt.

It is also possible to change thief to anyother class as long as they do not draw aggro.

If it is indeed a MF recipe, the possible Gift would be Gift of Weather. Which cost the same as Gift of Light and is use to craft low popularity Legendary the Meteorlogicus.

somsom.5201:

Both variants are likely either an MF recipe or a drop from an as now unknown event chest.
My guess is they are more likely an MF recipe, as someone posted recently on Reddit a list of MF/exotics and these two bows would have fit perfectly in place due to their item id.

If you mean this post, yes I have read it but I want to make sure it is a Mystic Forge recipe before I make Gift of Weather or whatever Gift that is require to make it.

I have no interest in making a Legendary therefore making a Gift that is not going to be used and will possibly stay in my bank forever is not something I want to do.

Because all other infusion(defense/offense) require 250 karka shells/passion fruits, 100 t6 mats and 5 skill points.

Also, when you infused the ring, any infusion on the ring will be remove, hence before one upgrade their ring to the infused version, it is better to just put a simple Infusion.

I am currently on the hunt for the shortbow version of this bow, Feathers of Dwayna, The Lover’s twin.

Can a Dev please confirm it is a Mystic Forge recipe like the few known Human God weapons(Tear of Grenth and Melandru’s Gaze) or it is another super-duper rare drop like Final Rest?

Drop in the Battleground Fractal, so it is bug.

Still getting Vials of Condensed Mists Essence at higher fractal level(28+), got one yesterday at lv30.

I read it some where that these should no longer drop after lv10 fractals, so what is going on?

Also, wooden chest/steel chest contain grey or white quality loot. No longer getting rare/exotic quality item from fractal chest, only Jade Maw chest.

A Shotgun Interview with ArenaNet

Q: What role do you at Arena Net feel Magic Find as a stat plays in the game? Could we see a rework of Magic Find to better fit the teamwork oriented design of dungeons?

A: Matt Wuerffel: The role of Magic Find is something that we’ve been discussing quite a bit. While we haven’t decided on a specific direction yet, we can say that it’s clear that the current implementation has some negative social impacts, and we definitely want to address that. Guild Wars 2 is a social game, and we want to foster positive player interactions, so it’s definitely an issue that we’re looking at very carefully.

I am not saying that MF stat wearer are not contributing to the team, I am saying they are contributing less in NORMAL circumstance.

There is no argument that MF as a stat brings nothing, NOTHING to the group.

Legendary Weapon not shown in character screen.

Robert Hrouda.1327:

If it is any consolation I am on scale 22 and have accrued over1600 fractal tokens and not yet gotten a ring either. It is RNG with the Jade Maw.

We are exploring alternatives to the current system.

3 weeks daily with both Tier 2 and Tier 3, out of thirty daily runs, zero ring drop for me. (0/30)

In my honest opinion, I think this RNG function used on Jade Maw must be flawed and needs to be look into.

Yet another day, no ring.

The group I ran with all got one, except me.

Now I got thousands of tokens sit in my bank, excuse my language but who the kitten think it is funny to have it drop on RNG?

/ragerant

No ring whatsoever.

Dame this RNG crap. It is like what? Two weeks doing daily every single day…

NO RING.

End up spend a ton of gold to make a backpiece now I have to farm rare for 250GoE to get it infused for higher level FotM.

Seriously, WTF?

This “exit and restart all over button” really – REALLY sucks.

I KNOW there is a warning when it is click, but the truth is – MOST PEOPLE DON’T READ.

Happen to me twice, once it happen on the begining of the third mini dungeon on level 1. The guy who clicked it actually said “Oh really? This dungeon doesn’t save?”

Hello? You can’t read?

Fine, no problem people are new to this dungeon, start again.

And then it happen on level 6, seriously, right after Jade Boss and chest loot, someone in the group either troll us or have a brain fart or something, he click the “exit and restart all over button” instead of waiting for ready to leave pop up window.

And some other click agree to leave…

I can understand why the restart all over mechanism is in place, for it is a scaling dungeon.

But Anet, please consider rework that “exit and restart all over button” or change the require vote.
