Guild Wars 2

BaconCatTheGreasy.9542:

Nice Guide.

However, “Agony is only associated with the end boss of each fractal starting at L10.” is a little misleading as the first fight in Cliffside has agony too.

Oh Cliffside is an exception that I mentioned

Rage The Numbers.7943:

Thanks! Much appreciated, as always

EDIT: "How much agony (resist) do I need? "

Fixed

Hey there, having gotten quite a few FOTM runs under my belt and progressing on the L40s atm, I thought I would compile a list of a tip and tricks I have learned from doing the fractals with my groups.

While most of the FOTM is fairly self-explanatory, there are some little here and there that may make alot of difference. Hopefully you will find them useful as well and feel free to add any other tips you may have.

It is a bit lengthy so use the navigation menu at the top!

Added the axe gallery to the list, enjoy

Mckeone.9804:

Thanks, Dulfy. Any chance you could add daggers to the queue?

Certainly, but I do need to level up a char to 80 that can use daggers though so could take sometime

Added the scepters gallery, doing axes next

You should have received 4 personalized wintersday gift

http://dulfy.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/gw2-toypocalypse-wintersday-9.jpg

Updated the guide to include the new additions from Halloween, Lost Shores and Wintersday

Added the mini toy golem, he may look simple, but he has a pretty cool spinning animation with sound effects, will add a video of all 5 toy minis later to show their animation

Added Plush griffon to the list, he is adorable!

Mini Toy Soldier added to the gallery, he has a pretty cute marching animation

There is a rifle skin, it is the pop gun skin. Greatsword skin is on the gemstore

http://dulfy.net/2012/12/14/gw2-wintersday-minis-outfits-and-weapons-skins/

No you cannot, don’t waste you gems on toy pet

Neutro.3079:

Thanks Dulfy!

Did you know that a mini boss in fractal is named after you?

Yep!

http://dulfy.net/2012/12/15/gw2-wintersday-recipes/

You can always buy them at the gemstore if you miss out on one

Added the new mini Princess Doll to the list!

50 Enchanted stuffing + 3 of either Mini Festive Golem/Mini Snowman/Mini Infirinium (could be duplicates) in the mystic forge.

The minis are only from the Wintersday Mystery boxes at the gemstore for 800 gems/10 or 100 gems/1

Added the new mini Toy Ventari to the list

Shafi.8952:

Does it say all of ventari’s teachings?

No it doesn’t talk. Just swing her toystaff

nikko.1908:

Could somebody post a pic of these mini pets? I don’t have access to the game right now and am curious.

Some of the minis here. http://dulfy.net/2012/12/14/gw2-wintersday-minis-outfits-and-weapons-skins/

There are some minis that are not available yet but will get added as the city tour progresses.

You need 3 minis specified in that quote, could be duplicates I think and then enchanted stuffing

Added a youtube video showing all the gemstore weapon animation

No it doesn’t, I have a bunch of high res screenshots of various weapon skins here
http://dulfy.net/2012/12/14/gw2-wintersday-minis-outfits-and-weapons-skins/

Hey everyone, with the help from quite alot of GW2 players, I was able to finish up my gallery of all the weapon skins, (both in gemstore and in the vendors that sells them for socks/hats/sweaters), outfits, and minis I managed to find for Wintersday.

I hope this should help those deciding if they wish to purchase those skins/outfits/minis. All of the weapon pictures are high res ingame screenshots as the preview window doesn’t show the particle effects (all the gemstore ones have a frosty effect).

Enjoy and let me know if you find anything missing! Huge thanks for everyone that helped me to complete the gallery!

akamon.2769:

thanks, Dulfy!D
can i contribute to the hammer gallery??? lol i wanna be famous XDD

Definitely, I will add you and bug you when I do hammers

Hey everyone, recently I have compiled a couple of weapon galleries using high res ingame screenshots that includes most of the weapon skins available ingame except the starter weapons. I thought I would share what I have here incase you are looking for a specific weapon skin for your character.

Updates
Nov 6, 2013

• Mace gallery added, all previous galleries updated with all of the new skins

Weapon galleries available

• Greatswords
• Staves
• Swords
• Scepters
• Axes
• Shields
• Hammers
• Rifles
• Focus
• Longbows
• Daggers
• Pistols
• Shortbows
• Maces

How to use
The galleries are designed to allow you quickly scan images of all the available weapons with minimal scrolling. You can either scroll down the page looking at the thumbnails or click on any of the images and flip through the images on the page.

Once you find the weapon skin you like, you can click on the details to reveal a table that shows you

1. Where/How to acquire the weapon
2. Trading Post prices, if it can be brought (link to gw2spidy or guildwarstrade)

Anyways, I hope this would be a help to those looking for weapon skins to complement your awesome armor!

This is not a bug, the wiki preview is wrong. The actual preview resembles the actual ingame screenshot.

I have the actual weapon and the preview looks identical to ingame model (see: http://dulfy.net/2012/12/06/gw2-sword-skins-gallery/#62)

Friend had this bug, they fixed it by resetting him. Apparently if you don’t see a bubble on the seal when you engage him, you need to reset him until the seal gets a bubble.

Hey there, with the introduction of fractals and the tier system, I would like to join a more static group of people so I can progress further with fractals. If you have a spot in your fractal running group/guild,, I would love to be part of it.

Please note that I am not interested in a large casual guild that may have members that run fractals/dungeons maybe couple times a week. I am seeking something a bit more hardcore.

You can msg me here or message me in game. Character name is Dulfy.

Thanks

Both the sticky and the wiki are player posted info and not official so they know as much as the rest of us. My guess would be on Southsun Cove as that makes the most sense.

It is part of the Miyani investigation chain and it is no longer available after Phase 1

Dendail.4896:

I’m looking forward to this.
Now to be clear the 1 Vial of Mists Essence is the same as 1 Vial of Condensed Mists Essence? Cause I got one on my very first run through.
And also any idea what else can be made with that vial so far?

There are a couple more backpieces/quivers that have being discovered. I believe the vial of mist essence and condensed are the same.

You can just loot the chest next to him http://dulfy.net/wp-content/uploads/2012/11/fahd_chest.jpg

ebrown.8193:

I haven’t compared the salvage kits yet, but has anyone looked at if they’re a better/worse bang for the buck compared to the Mystic Salvage Kits? Isn’t the % chance lower on the commendation salvage kits?

Disembler 3BEK Kit (250 uses, 10% for rare, 20% to recover upgrades)

Also, here is a list of all the commendation recipes i found so far.

Here is a compilation of the teasers people (especially the reddit community) were able to uncover so far after the new build.

http://dulfy.net/2012/11/02/gw2-the-lost-shores-pre-events-and-teaser/

@Kaz.5430 Thanks for those, will add them in

@Ickorus.4518 I have them included as part of the minipets

Hey everyone, with the Halloween event ending soon, I compiled a list of items that will be gone once the Halloween event ends. Let me know if I am missing anything! Note that I purposely left out of one time use tonics, toliet papers etc as they are not very useful.

• Raw Materials (i.e. candy corn, crafting mats)
• Recipes for Chef and Artificer (karma brought)
• Exotic weapons (The Crossing etc)
• Weapon skins (Chainsaw skin, scythe skin etc)
• Runes and Sigils
• Mad King exotic armor
• Shoulder skins
• Gem store stuff: town outfits, minipets, devil horn
• Endless Halloween tonics

Grand Plaza in Lion’s Arch

Qelris.6901:

How did you get it?

End of Mad King says event in Lion’s Arch, it is inside the chest at end of the event

http://dulfy.net/2012/10/31/gw2-shadow-of-the-mad-king-halloween-event-act-4-guide/

I thought the spider sucked too but apparently at night it changes color to glow in the dark and makes this cute tapping sound when it moves.

For anyone wanting to check out some pics/video of the minis: http://dulfy.net/2012/10/28/gw2-halloween-minipets/

Here is a guide I wrote that covers most of the Halloween stuff. I think I am missing some of the Halloween specific crafting info that I am finishing up but the rest is all there. Just ignore the static content as they will be still here after Halloween

http://dulfy.net/2012/10/24/gw2-halloween-event-guide/

Try here http://dulfy.net/2012/10/24/gw2-halloween-event-guide/

You can complete 4/4 Mad King’s world. The dungeon will be open until act 4 (october 31)

Issue for me appears to be latency, finally made it inside on the 5th try. Human female as well.

@Qelris.6901, thank you, I added that one in

Portals are not broken, if they are not active, you will need to do the meta events in these zones to activate them

http://dulfy.net/2012/10/28/gw2-access-to-mad-kings-labyrinth-realm/

Wrote a handy guide with a map you might find useful – it was pretty confusing for me too the first couple rounds

http://dulfy.net/2012/10/27/gw2-lunatic-inquisition-halloween-event-guide/

Are you just looking for the skin or the stats on it as well? The skin isn’t unique. Just search for Pit fighter (heavy), duelist (medium), acolyte (light) on the trading post with filter for exotics
