Guild Wars 2

Super elixir cures conditions and can trigger twice with the kit trait. It’s nice that kits have exotic stats and sigils now though.

I really hope for a long list of bug fixes on tuesday…

You don’t have to grind fractals. Ascended doesn’t make any real difference in wvw, and there’s no content in pve that needs ascended besides fractals.

US people can use EU servers and vice versa without issue, There is no Tarnished Coast EU for example. If she can get onto the server it’ll be no issue after that.

Tobias Trueflight.8350:

Then . . . I’d like to point out it’s a good idea to prevent new members from getting in the stash and Trove, and only people you TRUST getting access to the Trove.

. . . wait I’ve had this discussion before, and heard it even more recently. Something about spaceships and valuable blueprints . . . nah, must be misremembering.

We just lost 4bill worth inside an stolen Orca, heh respect to them for pulling that heist off. :P

Reflects don’t work, only spells that destroy projectiles.

Eles can use protection and reflection on party :p

If you’re in EU Aurora Glade is great in my experience We have a forum too :p

And now I know one more group type to avoid, yay

Isn’t the best way to get achievement points buying mass items and salvaging them? lol.

My ele has had some nice buffs

I’m looking forward to choosing my own dailies. If your dailies are resetting at strange times, it might be due to it using your system clock, make sure it’s up to date

I wish crowd controls had slightly longer durations in pve..

I love being able to go anywhere and still have fun Also sooooo many events I never saw the first time around, like hidden dungeons.

I’ve still never found (another – i deleted it not knowing that it did T_T) crystal in metrica yet for that hidden event.

Sostronk, you have EIGHT fully geared 80s, come on – you can’t expect devs to be able to keep up with someone that plays so much in themepark games like this. Maybe you should try sandboxes. The only way to have content keep up with hardcore players is to let players make the content.

Rekuja.6318:

I just love how they mention the Adam Lanza nonsense at the very bottom of the article, disgusting journalism.. Stuff.co.nz is probably the worst type of journalism, almost as bad as Fox News….

I highly doubt he killed the guy because he lost in a PvP battle, the fact that he knew where the guy lived shows they weren’t strangers on the internet and probably had a massive argument rather than some stupid PvP battle.

Anyone that thinks games turn people into a murderer is a self centered and ignorant moron.

tldr: another stupid journalist writes another stupid summary of what they believe happened, thousands of ignorant people (older generation) believe everything they see on the news and thus begins the moronic spiral of how video games are apparently “bad”

Moronic Spiral is a great album name, just saying.

You weren’t level 53, look at the level displayed in green.

All mmos lose the locusts after early launch, then the people that didn’t read what the game was leave, and now the people playing are the actual gw2 players. Same in any mmo. A slow growth is great.

Cathbadb.6079:

I don’t miss dedicated healers or tanks at all. In WoW and Rift I played healers and hate the attitude that I should be able to keep a tank healed when they pull an entire room including the Boss. I bought GW2 BECAUSE there are no dedicated Tanks/Healers. everyone is responsible for themselves though Elementalists can give a small regen or Mesmers can give life for 15 seconds in battle to all downed players. Guardians can do super heals with their Elite Skill books, but in the end whether you live or die is completely your fault. It makes for a better dungeon experience in my opinion because healers aren’t being griefed by overzealous tanks who think they should be able to live through anything. Not everyone has the best gear nor should they be bullied into grinding for said gear just to fulfill a certain role.

In WoW and Rift not only was gear difficult to find but as a Healer you were expected to have the very best gear (even if the tanks were undergeared they were allowed in) and the very best mana regen potions, which meant many hours farming instead of actually playing the game.

If Anet changes their mind and follows other MMO’s I can guarantee you will see a mass exodus or very few people willing to fill those roles. I know I won’t and the money I spend on the gem store will disappear along with me.

So much this, my experiences too. I love healing but I hate carrying bads.

Glovebox.5724:

Yeah, problem with having dedicated roles it is easy to point fingers. For example “It was all the tank!” “Healer is rubbish”.

The most annoying thing about that was most finger pointers had no clue about game mechanics.

I almost deleted my 80 mesmer (hate the playstyle, thought it’d get fun at the end like my awesome ele) but i’m just trying some different weapons and see how it goes :p

You can give some heavy support to your team and still play a healer’s playstyle (I do). You just need to adapt to the system.

I wish more people would look at the screen while playing, stuff like this wouldn’t happen..

When you make a new rank, all the permissions are right there.

Eles are pretty awesome, just keep in mind every class can both melee and range

omg swords change <3 <3 <3

Why are small guilds complaining (5 or less) the game is full of content for you, give the larger people a bone please, something that can be done together.

Anyway if you can’t get 78 gold between 5(!) people in 16(!) days, I don’t know what to say. 1 dungeon run gives 1g6s at the absolute minimum.

If you want something, go out and do it sell some ectos or something – It’ll be over before you know it AND you can do guild events the whole time, they will be popping so often this month the servers will cry.

while wvw is supposed to be imba fun, it’s nice to see the worst offenders removed :p Maybe put a short cooldown on gears in pve too (20s) since these consumables are quite finicky to use until a consumable action bar gets added

I like D/F in dungeons quite a lot. The support spells are just great.

WvW counts as pve for achievements.

Gotten a few rares and quite a few crests. Generally the main reward is that you can just just keep redoing them when you’re in the area, and if you do it once, most of them are much easier to repeat.

Well capture the flag is kinda coming up forrae

emikochan.8504:

I have never seen anyone being anything but cordial on my server, come to Aurora Glade, we have forums <3

yeah will only cost 1800 gems to swap

Just delete all your characters and it’s free!

Justin.7163:

It’s the internet. It’s a vile, vile place that harbors the worst kinds of people.

I don’t think so, anonymity just makes people honest. People aren’t any worse online, they are just protected from consequence.

wasn’t there a saying “the true test of a person’s character is how they act when they are immune to consequence” (or something :P)

I have never seen anyone being anything but cordial on my server, come to Aurora Glade, we have forums <3

hah I just bought one a couple days ago, what a world :P

I have no idea how anyone is struggling in open world pve in this game :o It’s ultimate relaxation.

Lower mobs die in like 2 hits, maybe you should get some more traits OP

I love the downleveling, I tried the TERA f2p recently, it was horrible, because my friends couldn’t play with me. So archaic.

My engineer has some very nice healing support too, though it’s quite active, especially in taking advantage of cripple and pulls/immobs to keep your team safe.

Remember condition removal is important too.

Will tell my guild about this Had no idea servers even did this :p

I’m struggling to see how this stuff isn’t obvious “can’t read it in a fight” is not a valid complaint considering how many bosses you will fight.

Do people just have no ability to read these days? 5 stacks, everyone uses one CC, it’s not rocket science.

If they get 12 stacks it’s a boss not designed to be cc’d

Condition cap needs to go away – give npcs more condition removals (that you can interupt if you time it well, like ether renewal on ele.)

I hope anet add more patrols and more organic behaviour to npcs.

The main thing I love about this game is that seeing other people is never bad (until culling happens – fix pls) so I’m much more likely to be in a good mood and want to help folks

All the pet classes are perceived as weaker, so the problem must be in the pet AI, It needs to be buffed.

My support engi does a great job in dungeons though it’s much more intensive than even my support ele. Would be nice if the heals had an improved radius.

It doesn’t seem that square when you’re in the map so I don’t mind.

There’s nothing that requires a higher level cap. New skills can use the current system, or hopefully bring back capture signet

There are zone chests and zone keys (like the dwarven keys) already.

There are less people in wvw because it’s not on the monthly this month :p Culling is still such a pain it’s not worth playing wvw til it’s fixed.

You can fight other guilds, in wvw and pvp

I guess jumping puzzles must be more popular on your server / playtime.

More clothes of all types!

And when diving you are not in clothes.

npc static field stuns if you dodge through it, but not sure player ones do.

it’s hard to speculate, especially as they said they were more interested in making counter builds on other classes than nerfing directly. I expect more boon stripping… I’ve had some success with the signet of nullification though :p

Supporting needs to count for participation, I don’t even care about a few exploiters, it’s a quality of life fix for the many legitimate support minded players
