Guild Wars 2

It’s horrible. And the worst is, they force you to do this so you can get the necessary achievments, pathetic.

But dungeons are hard! Stop doing CoF P1 and you will see.

Am i the only one? This thread was moved here because here is a dead sub-forum right?

Stop using AH.

Try one of these builds:

http://www.guildwars2guru.com/topic/83701-the-perfect-dps-guardian-build/

so do you think AH too trivial… but what you suggest are 2 full berserker builds…
that make no sense.

Your build isn’t a normal AH. It shows how you are trying to get more dps by forcing your “AH” build into a full zerker one… the worst thing you can do.
Remember that some classes are for damage others for support… and guardian isn’t for damage… do you know?
You see warriors who destroy everything … but i also see warriors destroyed by everything… in few moments.

ill suggest you to give a look at my build
http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/guardian/?3.0|1.1g.h1|c.1g.h4.d.1g.h1|1g.7c.1g.7c.1c.7c.1g.7c.1p.7c.1g.7c|2s.0.21k.0.2s.0.2s.0.3s.0.2s.0|0.5.u45b.u28b.5|39.1|w.17.19.18.1i|e

what do you need isn’t damage… but support and, ofc, damage togheter with survivability.
your primary role as a guardian is to reinforce your party and then attack/defend.
If you go full damage you will die in a moment.
If you go full support your damage is ridicolous.
The better is in the middle and it’s all that my build offers:

• Support your party with multiple aoe boons, heals, and way to escape from a sure death. Damage, with the big power pool and the great crit and crit damage. Survival, with a large hp pool a good quantity of toughness and too many way to restore your health.

The only thing you need now is to learn to use that build… than you can confirm the following affirmation:
“full zerker builds have no sense if played in solo nor if played in party, the difference comes from support ; big damage can be reduced, big health can be destroyed.”

:D enjoy

I will try this, ty.

But right now, i’m testing some zerker build from a know guy i think, called Brazil and the anchor build from Strife.

Both are very nice, i will play with the anchor now because i feel more safe, i did CoE last night and i liked the survivability.

Heh, I linked you Brazil’s guide in my own post. It’s good. Also check out GK’s GS build: http://www.guildwars2guru.com/topic/83822-guardian-greatsword-dps-build-guide/

Oh yeah, sorry, lol.

This anchor build is very nice, i can hit hard and i can survive for more time, i’m enjoying it very much. For PvE i’m going Brazil dps build, i use this one in CoF now, i’m more experienced with that dungeon, but i need to try this build in other dungeons.

Is Dragonbrand better than GoM?

Save 100 Laurels > Buy the Heavy Crafting Bag > 300 T6 mats.

The rest you can buy or idk, farm (lol, like farming/grind was effective in this game – everywhere is nerfed till exhaustion).

If yes, i need help.

I want to be part of a guild in the server GATE OF MADNESS – GoM that:

1 – LOVE to do dungeons and fractals and are heavily focused on PvE.

2 – Don’t treat newbies like trash and don’t ignore players in need of help.

3 – That do guild missions, for the guild commendations.

I want to help others players too, but i need respect and helpful people, not jerks who ignore you and don’t care about you if you’re not their friends or don’t have money to pay to them for help or privilegies.

I’m tired of being part of large guilds that ignore you or simple don’t want to help you with dungeons. How do i find a nice guild for dungeons? I need help and people with patience, not be ignored and treated like trash, just because i’m a newbie.

is GoM poor in the guild part? Which server have the best guilds? Also, can i report a guild?

I like survivability and i enjoy the protector/healing aspect of the class and people said to me if i wanted to do dugeons, i should pick a warrior or mesmer or guardian.

Are you trolling?

I got 2 shards of mists in my first time on lvl 20.

It should be: “Healthy and ale!”

Why are you necroing this?

Ok.

/change the tone

So, i bought that outfit because i find it hilarious to use when people are using the box of fun and all that funny stuff. The canon is hilarious too, i love to BOOM people. But one of the main reasons for me to acquire the outfit, was the “Yarr!” thing.

I saw one of my guildmates using this Yarr in a guild reunion/event, he was using a female human and the Yarr was so funny with all that mess of combat, canon, people trasnformed and all.

So, i put the outfit on my female norn and only character and tried the Yarr thing.

This was my reaction:

( -__- )

Seriously? The Yarr was so DEAD like, it had a lack of any emotion!

The Yarr on the female human is >> “YAAAAARR!!!!!!!!!”

On the female norn was >> “yarr”

They could have changed the tone of the voice for the Yarr on the female norn.

I know this is not a main issue, a big issue, but it would be nice if this could be changed, a Yarr more enthusiastic for the female norn.

Sorry for my bad english.

I know that the chance of someone explain this to me is almost zero, but i need to try.

What is this thing called “play the TP”? Seriously, what’s that even means?

I’m not a major economic/wallstreet guy or something, i don’t have any clue about economic and market and all that, i’m just a guy wanting to have fun playing a game and be able to make some gold. But it seems that you need advanced knowledge in things that are not fun, to be able to make gold in this game!

Could someone help me, pls?

Slither Shade.4782:

Buy a second account. On this second account you are free to look like an idiot and be a kitten. Btw I’m posting this on my second account now….not really.

Why are you offending me? Reported.

Just tried CoE. It was horrible. Got destroyed like 6 times, that subject alpha guy have a insane rate of spell/skill spam, everything one shot you, i can’t dodge every 3 seconds, even with specs for vigor and sigil of energy. Seriously, it was horrible.

I don’t know if was the group > 2 mesmers + 1 ranger + 1 engineer.

I won’t be able to acquire those kittening core and lodestones right?

Also, people hate newbies and LFG for this dungeon is a desert.

This is my build:

http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/guardian/?3.4|1.1g.h1b|b.1g.a7.d.1g.h1j|1g.71h.1g.71h.1g.71g.1g.71g.1g.77.1g.77|4s.d1e.2s.d1e.3s.d1e.2s.d1e.3s.d1e.cc.67|0.a6.u56b.u28b.0|1.9|v.16.19.18.1i|e

I’m doing CoF P1 and P2 ( i know, they don’t count much ) and FoTM (currently in lvl 19)

But, idk, i’m feeling kinda useless or too weak. This is because of two things i think:

1 – I have a ridiculous low health. With one shot from a boss in FoTM (the dredge champion) i get downed. I don’t know if everyone gets one shoted by this boss, this is normal? Also, normal mobs with 4 hits almost kill me.

2 – Even with 10 – 12 stacks of might (sometimes on battle i get 16 or 18 stacks, without the staff), i feel weak and i take a long time to kill mobs. Warrios just DESTROY everything in front of them!

What i wanna do is CoE now and FoTM 20-29. It seems that in dungeons all you need is BRUTE FORCE, i mean, all rely on DMG it seems. In FoTM 20+, i saw some people saying that full zerk is not a good option.

I have 2 gears. The one in the build and another one, full Knights with full Runes of the Soldier.

Do i still continue using my build on CoE and change my gear (only armor) in FoTM 20+?

I don’t know what to do anymore….

Well, i don’t know, i tried in lvl 35 and got destroyed. Also, i said lvl 80 because it’s almost impossible to find a group that accepts a lvl 35 to do this dungeon.

Ok, so far the only dungeons i’ve done were AC P1-P2-P3 and CoF P1-P2.

I want to try CoE, because of the chance to acquire charged cores and lodestones. But, i’m sure that will be very hard for me, i’m not a PRO at dungeons, this is my first MMO and i still feel like a newbie to the game, i rarely die now on AC and CoF, but i’ve seen a lot of people saying that this Subject Alpha is hard and unforgivable.

What i need to know is, the right way to to dungeons in this game is by stacking and run pass trash mobs? Like, this is the way you need to do dungeons? Because, in AC you stack on the spider queen to kill her fast and you just run pass whatever appears in front of you.

Before i try CoE, i will see some videos on YT, the problem is, almost every video is about rush/speed run, those videos are the one that i need to see?

One other thing. It is normal to bosses one shot you in FoTM lvl 10? Not insta-kill, like, go downed with one shot from the boss, like, the boss in the dredge fractal, the one after the door, not the legendary. I rarely die in FoTM now, i’m on lvl 19, but after the 16 i realized that things start to get hard.

I run this build on my guardian ( my only character):

http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/guardian/?3.4|1.1g.h1b|b.1g.a7.d.1g.h1j|1g.71h.1g.71h.1g.71g.1g.71g.1g.77.1g.77|4s.d1e.2s.d1e.3s.d1e.2s.d1e.3s.d1e.cc.67|0.a6.u56b.u28b.0|1.9|v.16.19.18.1i|e

Should i change for knights gear (armor) + full soldier runes for FoTM lvl 20 and CoE? I already have this set.

Putting an PvE achiev in a PvP place, this is wrong and dumb.

“Don’t even try to do a level 35 dungeon on lvl 35 with gear lvl 35. Wait for lvl 80 full exotic, then you will have a chance.”

Was that sarcastic or should I really wait?

Yes, wait.

Don’t even try to do a level 35 dungeon on lvl 35 with gear lvl 35. Wait for lvl 80 full exotic, then you will have a chance.

What? It’s ridiculous easy to acquire SP. Just do the events, the world events every day and some x4 runs on cof P1, and use a XP booster maybe, they are dropping like rain with those new achiev chests. You gain a lot of XP from doing events, not just the world ones, and from dungeons. What is really hard to acquire in this game is gold.

See how long it takes you to gather up 200 skill points.

It is incredibly long, especially when you have everything but the skillpoints to complete a legendary.

Sorry, but, if you have everything to craft a legendary, even the freaking precursor, 200 SP for the bloodshard is nothing compared to the insane amount of T6 mats you need for the legendary or the precursor.

What ruin PvP and WvW is the attitude of the elitists, all that “i’m so kittening good” “haha, pwned noob” attitude.

Really? Thank god those AMAZING chests are giving 300 badges, so i’m not obliged to do WvW and get decimated by pvpers addicteds and extremely overpowered players.

Chopps.5047:

It’s a mechanic to make you melee them.

it’s a stupid mechanic then.

Wait, i’m lost here. Do i need obsidian shards to create T6?

fey.5438:

Laurels ->Heavy Crafting Bag-> tons of mats

According to the wiki, those bags just drop 3 materials, THREE…

Also, Laurels are used for ascended trinkets.

They say lvl 35 but they mean:

lvl 80, full exotic with food buffs.

So, i need to fun CoF with MF gear? Will i be kicked doing this?

It’s really nerfed everywhere? How do i acquire those materials?

I have 15AR, is 20-29 with 15AR too dangerous?

Thank god i’m not the only one.

Because of this stupid bug of rez, my party couldn’t rez me on Maw and i lost 1 hour doing that kittening thing, and got no chest.

In the ascalonian you are transformed into a charr and you can’t change your skills. The harpies, oh boy, that one is kittening stupid.

INVULNERABLE – INVULNERABLE – INVULNERABLE

The Underwater – Kraits stucks on the ceiling.

1 – Ascalonian Fractal

You are transformed into a charr and can’t change skills.

2 – Underwater Fractal

Mobs (kraits, in the first part) get stucked in the ceiling.

3 – Harpies Fractal

Sometimes harpies are invulnerable, even if you are melee them.

4 – Jade Maw

Impossibe to rez party members sometimes, because of this, i lost 1 hour and couldn’t get my chest.

Fix this, please, for the love of god.

DEKeyzToChaos.7381:

Are you on an EU or NA server?

NA

Seriously, how the hell am i supposed to find a group and get those kitten relics?? I just want the fractal capacitor but i’m stucked in 300 relics, but i always, ALWAYS end up on groups that:

Don’t communicate with others.

Self-entitled.

Don’t know what needs to be done.

Don’t listen, don’t read the party chat.

I don’t know what to do anymore! I’m not the best player, i make mistakes sometimes, but i know what needs to be done in the fractals, i always try my best, i use the right gear and trait setup and skills. I don’t have any friends and my guild don’t ever give a kitten about helping me on dungeons and things like that, so i’m doomed with PUGs.

Could i please get a invite for a ORGANIZED and DECENT group? I’m a good listener and i follow orders if necessary, i just need some ORGANIZED group to do this, my god, i’m so tired.

Please!

I’ts not all the fractals, just the bug in the Ascalonian one, that get you transformed into a charr and you CAN’T change your skills!!

And the dredge one. Seriously, this one is kittening stupid, frustrating and boring. The first part is HORRIBLE, people need to press the buttons, the first 2 buttons, and they always die, it’s impossible not to die, they hit you so fast and all that daze kitten and those knock attacks, UGH!!

How am i supposed to stay alive in this first part of this fractal? I’m on lvl 14 now, and i’m having nightmares with higher lvls. Does dying on the top of the buttons is the only way to pass this?

So, i need a guild that acts like a family, the entire day to play the game, friends and luck? Legendaries are truly ridiculous to craft, jesus.

This new patch is very nice, those achievs chests are amazing, i got 100 badges of honor from the 500 one, and i love Laurels. This new place is very beatiful. Thanks Anet.

The Moot is ridiculous, but, congrats on crafting another legendary.

The Art Of Flaming By Aophts

Get a life baby Moot Is Awesome.

You have 3 le"grind"aries and you are telling ME to get a life? That is ironic.

The Moot is ridiculous, but, congrats on crafting another legendary.

Don’t join “zerk pls, gogogo $$$$$$$ no nubs, GG we gona lose” groups. Also, try not to get downed a few times, seriously, i’m not a pro player or something, hell, i’m very far from this, but it’s very rare to go down on CoF P1.

Why would you want to kill trash and get rewarded with junk? There’s nothing wrong with skipping, exploit on the other hand is wrong. But, it’s hard to fight bosses that one shot you, it isn’t fun to get instakilled.

foofad.5162:

You’re not getting a lot of damage out of that build considering how little defensive stats you have. There are builds with similar or greater defensive capabilities but much higher damage.

See: http://gw2buildcraft.com/calculator/guardian/?3.2|c.1g.h1l.d.1g.h2|1.1g.h2|1p.71g.1g.71g.1p.71h.1g.71h.1p.77.1g.77|1g.61.1c.61.1c.61.1g.61.1g.61.8c.61|0.u6ab.u16c.5.5|2e.7|w.12.13.15.1i|e

That’s with similar runes to yours. I usually run either Soldier’s, Melandru, or 5x Citadel +1 Ruby in that.

Well, those foods are quite expensive, and i won’t be melee everytime, especially in higher level fractals or harder dungeons, melee with the low VIT is kinda crazy for me.

I think i will try to put some valkyrie gear to have more vitality, and go full zerk trinket. Having low VIT is so unfair.

What about my build, it is bad or good?

My build right now
