Is it confirmed that crafting is max 500?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Jewelry and cooking still need to be raised to 500

Jewelry I can see, but cooking? Food is expensive enough as it is now.

Thanks for the answers guys.

How can we changed WvW to prevent the blob

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Disable combat rezzing. They can still blob and zerg, but small parts of them can be murdered to trim the zerg.
Right now it’s insane, a guild group can rez through several high hitting attacks + multiple siege.

Some help against condi thiefs?

in Thief

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Hello thiefs, I’m having some problems with some of you

I dont have a clue what to do against condi thiefs, I presume it’s something with d/p of perhaps something else. Problem is the amount of invis it has and how it can unload condis on you/me.
Its even worse if it’s inside a tower or something because anet thought it was wise to let them stealth from walls now?

So care to tell me what the big secret is? It’s not condi’s itself, they clean them in stealth I think?

Stop running DirectX 9 in the expansion?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

As the title says, will ANet finally update their game to run either DirectX10 or 11 with the release of the expansion?

Im wondering because there are times in WvWvW that i drop to maybe 15 fps with a i7, 680 gtx and 16gb of ram, which really shouldn’t ever happen.

All topics about this have gone silent, Anet is too scared to answer.

EotM balance

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

If you want to kill people in EotM, go with a fearwall necro or siege up a tower with ACs, a few friends, and let the loot bags roll in.

that kind of attitude makes me sad

Well eotm is a sad place.

HoT is Underwhelming

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Well the old gw1 comparison again, the first expansion also did not have a new playable race, or even a new profession.
What it did gave was lots of new dungeons, lots of new pve skills with ranking(perhaps comparable to masteries). Fun minigames, like boxing, the norn tournament en the protect the dragonspawn from destroyers.

I am sceptical to say the least, and annoyed they went into maguuma instead of Elona. But I will see it when more is known about it.

Hi, search is still not working so I wonder if I missed this. I would be pretty angry if I find out that HoT will increase crafting levels from 500- xxx.
Is there something said about this that I missed?

Legendarys Easier? what?

in Guild Wars 2: Heart of Thorns

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Legendarys are already too easy, why make them easier? These are supposed to be “LEGENDARY” weapons, not something handed out by walking around a few zones collecting stuff. They needed to increase the difficulty of obtaining legendarys. That or make Ancient Legendarys for those of us that actually want a challenge. Make them 5-10x Harder to obtain then current legendarys.

You can buy them from the tradepost, what is legendary about that.

I just laugh off the pea brains that spam /laugh or other whatever emotes after zerging you down 3:1 or more. If that bothers you, just turn emotes off. If they spawn camp, go to another bl. If they spawn cap every bl – just do something else. Let them have no fun too….

I haven’t been in matchups so bad it isn’t fun, but I know we won’t win with fa in the match. As long as I am having fun, don’t really care about 2 bonus chests…….

/laugh is perfectly fine in wvw, provocation is just another strategy used in warfare

The Walk of Shame

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

They don’t want to avoid “the walk of shame” they just don’t want to bother. Being dead is like placing a big “bad player” sign on top of you – the dunce cap of failure – which is worse.

.

Being bad? That is pretty dumb to call people bad when they die. Ever heard of suicide attacks in wvw, or taking one for the team/server?

Why are all the elites horrible?

in Guardian

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Well it’s not just guardians that have bad elites. From all professions the utility skills are much better than their elite skills. Anet really bombed at making the elites in this game.

Ranger in WvW after balance patch

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

Pewp-Pewp not Pew-Pew

Rangers need toning down in WvW they are ridiculous.
Ridiculous regen with troll urgent
1200 lazer of death. Get close? get knocked back start again.
Passive evasion by spamming attack skills on sword dagger.
Fear, kD on pets.
Unrivaled revive potential from pets in down state.

Each class has risk reward kind of balance where Ranger is just reward with no risk at the moment.

They are just over the top. Either buff all other professions or nerf ranger.

Pet revive is strong indeed, but you forget one thing. If you go down as a ranger, chances are about 99% of the time your pet is already down too.
And the rest was described fine by the person above me.

Armour on a char and asura is not my taste, I hate them all. That is why I was hoping for a race changer(that will never come). And that is why I never want Anet to add any other races because chances are I find all of the armour on them ugly.

Only thing I noticed is significantly more lag since the patch. Who gives a kitten about siege skins…

I haven’t been getting any lag since the update in wvw, maybe an ISP or computer issue? I usually do not have lag though even with massive zerg battles, when others are.

Me neither, we had a pretty big fight at the Millers sound keep last night(sorry Millers) and the third server Elona Reach was there too.
I didn not notice that much of a slowdown with so many players inside a keep or trying to get in.

Living Story, success or failure?

in Living World

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

I feel weird, everything pointed towards the crystal desert and possible Elona, and instead Anet comes with some part of the maguma jungle that no one was expecting.( Or even wanting)

There is very little that pointed toward the Crystal Desert actually.
People see what they want to see, but basically the only thing that pointed towards CD was Glint, who is no longer there.

On the other hand basically everything else pointed towards going towards Maguuma, where Mordremoth quite clearly have its based.

I would say that basically everyone that actually played the living story expected to go deeper into Maguuma as opposed to you claiming no one expecting it.

The last part pointed to CD for me. Ghostly hero, the ascension runes, the forgotten.
There were other hints before, like the Zephyrites and their stories about the CD.

What are the top 9 EU servers ?

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

BB is not a top server, they rely on nightcapping(EU time) only. AFAIK other servers in the top 10 all have nightcapping, but do not rely on it like BB does.

The only thing I am terribly disappointed is that gliders won’t be available in old maps. It feels so meh. C’mon! You have an opportunity to make this game so much cooler with those gliders, make them work in vanilla game!

No, no not this. Not another mount topic.

[Suggestion] Ascended weapon chest

Or merge the chests and inside the chest is all the possible choices, either weapons or armor. Select the piece and stats you want.

Yes much better. Last year I got a weapon from a chest in WvW. Most useless stats ever

Is ascended armor needed for WvW?

in WvW

Posted by: aspirine.6852

aspirine.6852

@The argument of too expensive:

To get ascended trinkets is actually very easy… I am now throwing most of the ascended drops I get away, cuz… you know, there are tons of them in my inventory and bank already. Also weapons is fairly easy to get. To get a full armor is harder… but with weapons and trinkets the (already small) gap is closed a bit further… so I see no real issues here unless you wanna 1v1 duel all the time…

Men I got like 3 drops in my whole 2200+ hours of playing.

The difference in stats is not “tiny” it is quite substancial and will give you a reliable edge in close fights.

Anyone telling you anything different is either lying or an idiot.

If you can get it get it, trust me it will make a difference. Even just getting the chest and the pants ( the raw stat increase there is the greatest compared to the other slots) will make a notable difference. It will not guarantee your win but it will get you out of tight stituations.

5% is tiny in any way you look at it.
