Guild Wars 2

no auto queueing, a group finder is enough. dungeon finder ruined wow.

isn’t it easier to get through mf if you use exotics instead of rares ?

I always wanted to play a melee kinda mage, d/d , d/f is just too much fun :p

Bring back the pull

You can spec into tanky, supporty or dpsy roles fine, and they do make things fun.

The main thing that is required is having access to boons and conditions that weaken mobs and strengthen the party.

tbh it’s not hard to be a team player, it mostly involves just being attentive and helping anyone that gets into trouble.

It’s the same mindset as in the traditional trinity, but every character has the capability to actually do it. Not just the character with the taunt.

Just do wvw if you want laurels from pvp.

Can a guard even beat a player? I’d rather they just res as fast as possible.

Well next patch is choosable dailies, I imagine the people that can’t get it in normal play and resort to dodging a single mob…. won’t be choosing the dodge daily.

Well the crafting and bank areas are closer together in other cities :p But yes I agree.

Flooding the market will destroy the value of drops anyway, no point wishing for hugely buffed loot :p

Would be nice if CC was longer in pve, toughness affected threat a little more, and healing coefficents were a little higher on friendlies than on self.

I love the gw2 system, the potential for some really meaningful gameplay is there if the numbers are tweaked a little

the gear boxes are more for when you’ve already gotten the ascended stuff :P

Yumiko Ishida.3769:

Engi sucks period. No way to kill 5 enemies at once. i only have her to wear T 3 when I can put it on her for sexy (and possibly embarrissing and hilarious) RP situations.

um, try using some AoE :p my engi can farm all sorts of large groups, mass amounts if retaliation is nice

i play a bunker ele in dungeons and I never die while giving lots of buffs and decent damage to the party

Nothing wrong with it, though I do change utilities almost every fight.

I love doing dungeons when I have the time, I’m just against any auto dungeon finder because it means people aren’t even talking.

Fixing the group finder like anet say they want to, is a good thing, allows people to group for all sorts of things not just dungeons.

until then gw2lfg is great, so don’t spend time being frustrated, try it :P

I’ve never had any problems in melee (on my elementalist), try dodging sometime.

Anet said legendaries will always be best in slot

Interesting exercise:

Convert laurels to real world cash value.
Look at how much stuff costs on the laurel vendor.

Ascended amulets are about $600 bucks, which is a pretty nice necklace by any standard.

Also, break down the time to complete your daily, then divide that by twenty bucks. Laugh at how little you get paid compared to your actual life.

Endless mystery cat tonic $2000.

WORTH IT.

Come on it’s not that important, just take your time, have fun and you’ll have enough gold eventually.

retaliation on turrets would be hilarious

I have a feeling that engis will get the next portal ability, since anet wanted to add it to more classes.

HAHA Chuo, you don’t play many mmos do you. GW2 isn’t that buggy at all for a young mmo.

They are being slowly fixed, though it’d be nice if the bug fixing process was more advertised, sometimes a bug disappears and it’s not even documented, like the RTL and magnetic grasp fixes.

I don’t see where this balance complaint is coming from either, people just need to counter build, and anet are going to be adding a lot more counter builds if the SotG video is anything to go by.

The only thing that really needs fixing is gust (make it instant like focus gale), aoe blinds shouldn’t be that easy to get.

Everything else you just need to learn timing to work with the delays.

the Auto attack should probably be twice as long with thrice the damage (and 33% faster travel time), just for more stylistic impact.

Staff is already very powerful in pvp if you’re good.

tbh if you need to kill an object, icebow just rocks. And it increases your condition damage so anything you have up before summoning it starts doing more damage.

Boon stripping.

I don’t get the utility argument. You get a bunch of utility when you summon it, and then drop it when it loses its usefulness.

People seem to think conjures are like weaponswapping.

Like how icebow you can say it’s like glyph of storms for the 4, with a nice stun and chill utility, bunch of projectiles if you need that too. Soon as you stop needing the aoe/stun etc you go back to your normal bar.

Not many utilities you get to use twice in such a short time.

love this boss

Not being able to mail my party consumables for the dungeon is a real pain. Why no direct trading system? It’s jarring not being able to pass an item to someone standing next to me. Just let us create loot bags or something :P

Really nice I’ll repost this on my guild forum

Asura Elementalist

Nope, I’m fine playing the game at the unboosted rate, no rush

Casuals don’t need ascended, I’m spending my laurels on dyes.

Spy kit, stealth ele

hans, i can’t see it not scaling like any other event.

Well you can’t really defend your home against someone that can’t come back later. This will be repeatable right ?

I don’t like the sparring idea, but home instance invasions/defense sounds good

Bring back the pet evolution from gw1

The first placed is the one that counts.

Tipsy.5802:

120 runs in 120 hours in the same dungeon is a real hoot!
(If I was like the Mad Hatter in Alice in wonderland)
Infact I think dungeon grinders should be punished for hiding away in a cave while they cant see what really is important;zhaitan..
Instead of making it cheaper give players more ways to earn it:by aiding their race in the begin area(new content) and earn it,then it would be real prestige
And actually fun…

It wouldn’t take 120 runs, and you don’t have to do them all at once…

Asura make sense because we have magitek exoskeletons under our armour

Just a point, there is no priority list, it’s just the first field that works.

options are always good

No thanks, wp travel isn’t meant to be trivial, you’re supposed to travel to an area and then do things there (so you’ll get the cash back and more)

Yep would be nice to have a few custom bindable buttons (and the ability to move the location of skills for those that don’t use hotkeys)

tool kit best kit

I’d rather see rifle before pistol, but I hope one day all weapons will have skills for all classes.

I think the whole point of all ele weapons is as a foci :P I don’t think we’ll be hitting anything directly anytime.

Play how you want, just play with friends, I’m sure you can make a pure 1 attunement build work well enough even though it’s not optimal. Maybe just start in a different attune and get the switch bonus on your chosen one.

I had loads of fun making a melee auto attacking mage in wow, and that’s way less useful than a 1 attunement ele :P

You can keep doing what you were doing for fun before you hit 80, the main thing I love about this game is that it doesn’t randomly change into something else when you reach the level cap.

Not lets-plays. I like information and discussion about stuff like builds and patches. Like state of the game :p

I can’t imagine that ever happening, maybe you’re lagging or something?
