Guild Wars 2

I got mines by telling people to just use immobilize on the champ thieves and traiting my warrior so that I had 3-4 immobilizes and knockbacks. Just need some coordination, there’s only 2 exits so it’s not that bad if you can get people to cooperate.

You can always farm gold again but you never know when the awesome chickenado mini will return.

Add a ‘use all’ button.

Allow us to buy multiples of an item instead of clicking so much.

I highly recommend FA judging from your playstyle

There is a second cluster of trees is at Waywarde Waypoint in straits

3 signet bearbow is the best ranger build that is why people run it

Bump. Tested the achievements magic find/karma %/experience boost in fact do not currently work as intended.

Sorry about that didn’t know about the bug. I got 4 events for the story and the champ was the odd one out so i thought it was that.

As for the Nectar pods, he ONLY drops it when you MELEE. Best to solo him he will regularly drop the pods, you don’t even need to kill him.

Seems ok to me. I’ve parked 6 alts at the Elder Wood Log spawns (near Paggas) and I get on average 3-5 each time I rotate through all 6.

That’s around 110-120 Elder Wood Logs yielded.

The champion

If you have good cleave and ok dps then line of sight the mobs and cleave them down.

Kinda like PvE where you FGS 4 everything.

Otherwise drag the scouts and kill them first.

Generally my preferred order is Yaks→Scouts→the rest if I can’t cleave it all.

Nobody forces you to map explore in WvW

True WvWers would work around the guild group and still do WvW. If the guild group is tying the enemy blob up, go flip stuff while they’re occupied etc.

It just sounds to me like you’re a mindless sheep looking for a dorito to follow.

WvW ranks are totally meaningless, he who karma trains the most has the highest rank.

I once met a guy over 1000 rank and he still ran a 5 signet warrior in WvW.

Basically it’d be pointless screen clutter for me.

Had like 60+ with a semi organized T5 overflow and still took almost 10 minutes to down it, waste of time for the limited loot involved. People are already starting to do the other events instead for more Geodes.

Not bad mechanics sure, but way too much HP. Tweak the HP and it’ll be awesome.

If you want a quality NA WvW experience, look at FA/Maguuma both are very solid T2 WvW servers fights-wise.

SoS has no SEA queues

Nick.6972:

FA has literally no OSX/SEA.

Literally. No OCX at all!

Wait.

Why won’t you consider Maguuma? They are a solid choice now that SoS has had some NA guilds come over and FA already has a solid NA.

I get an ascended ring or chest around every 150 levels although I did have a dry spell from rank 700-1300 where I got nothing ascended.

I get a few exotics here and there in the rank up chests but I probably get more from actual WvW than the chests.

Megaservers completely ruin guild missions

i don’t see how it ruin guild mission.

my guild has been running guild mission without any problem even with the megaserver. in fact it helps small guilds doing the missions by tagging along and accepting credit for completion.

Sometimes the puzzles or rushes have 10 minutes left and we have to wait for it to end or not enough time for us to complete.

Sometimes different overflow for bounty and everyone is confused by ‘we found it!!!’ but it’s on another overflow.

Sometimes big guilds stand on the side and watch without helping because their members aren’t all there yet and screws up the scaling for smaller guilds.

etc…

Megaservers completely ruin guild missions

Level 46-55

DB was never a top pvp server. They were a top PvDoor server. Most of your guilds die on inc.

You will be ‘good at WvW’ again once you guys drop to T3.

Thanks for the good fights Meow over the past 3-4 months.

Webley.1295:

Has the skill lag gone?

Nope. It’s not always as bad though since there are no longer massive queued blobs fighting, even in T1.

Is there now functions for guilds to fight guilds other than the arena space in the jumping puzzle? (Guildwars? Hence the name/title suggests)

No, they added something in the EB JP like an arena of sorts to fight ‘openly’ but its not really a GvG place and you can and do get trolled by randoms time to time if you try to GvG there.

Have they changed the AOE limits, or made them better/worse/more fair?

They nerfed mesmer’s aoes I think back in the day you could confusion bomb a big blob but that doesn’t work anymore. Statics and line skills still work though, all other aoe still same as launch.

IS there new wvw maps?

There’s edge of the mists but it’s not really a WvW map. Basically all the uplevel karma train players go there for quick level/karma/wxp/champ bag.

IS the wvw queing issue gone?

The queue bug? It seems to be fixed, you can now see the queue position you are in. There are also barely any queues, even in T1.

Have they merged any empty servers yet?

No.

Are there more objectives other than capping outside and inside keeps for ppt?

They added bloodlust to the borderlands, basically like spvp cap circles x 5 and replaced the old orb mechanic. You hold 3 cap circle for 2 minutes to get the ‘orb’ which give stats and ppt on stomp. It’s mostly pointless.

Nothing new in keeps but they finally fixed watergate on garrison to allow vulnerability stacks on the inner gate and to allow garrison to be contested.

Has the ppt system changed an any way at all?

Not really, except bloodlust.

Any siege changes/improvements?

They added masteries and stuff, ACs seem to have been changed a bit so they sometimes need line of sight.

Are there many active aussie guilds left?

I can probably count them all, there aren’t many.

Guilds that sorta play OCX times: HIRE, SoX, GC, NOC, MERC, TED, BEAR, TS in the top 6 servers that I know of. On FA there’s GWAM.

Any commander tag improvments?

Nope.

Any targetting improvments?

Nope.

Have they enabled the function to change the colour of the mouse cursor yet?

Nope.

When I left there was news about making new purple armours with materials. I made a purple weapon on a few characters. Did they implement this grindfest fully into WvW yet? (Before you could only grind part of the materials in WvW and had to do the rest in PvE)

Purple = legendary, no legendary armor yet.

Is Tarkus/Indevar still playing?

Yes.

Most WvW players know that the CDIs are pointless PR stunts anyway and as such don’t really care either way.

That and many people just quit already they don’t care anymore.

People that wanted T1 blobfest already left for T1, nobody wants to merge with you just so you can blob queue 4 maps all day.

Depends what time zone you play I guess?

The situation in T2 currently is plenty of fights during NA prime and SEA prime (not just EBG), not very many during OCX prime (sometimes none at all) and that’s all the timezones I can comment on, I don’t play EU timezone.

I have to agree it IS pretty funny to kill self-entitled PvE whiners :P

I don’t see it as skillful at all though, it’s funny as hell yes.

Toxic Spore skin also come from chances not box which is also weird. I think everything got buffed except Chaos of Lyssa

It’s a conspiracy for Vol to buy cheap backpieces :P

/s

Rucksack dropped heaps too, I think speculators just cashing out lol

If anything the OP should complain about the 500 AP from GW1 in HoM… lel

Events that fail had their karma removed some time ago. It applies to PvE and everything else (incl. WvW).

Join a fights orientated guild that occasionally goes to EOTM to farm the karma trains.

I only make 5-10g a day excluding any TP profits. This comes from gathering and WvW, I don’t even do CoF p1.

Reverence.6915:

I fall asleep against T2 servers. No way am I going lower than that….

Oceanic time zone is dead even in T1, so there’s not much chance that people who play in that time zone will move below gold servers.

^ this. I can basically count the OCX guilds across T1 + T2 on my fingers and toes, probably just fingers.

Even EOTM is dead during OCX, some sides can’t even muster up a karma train to get going.

On second thought not having decay would suck.

I guess extending superior and guild siege decay timers would make sense, it would be extremely expensive to constantly spam them to siege cap while keeping the regular stuff at the current timers.

Should remove decay on SUPERIOR and GUILD siege & keep it on the normal stuff.

Dakota.4591:

As of right now, promoting bloods from T1 -> T2 returns about 44s per skill point assuming an average return of 16 per combine, 51s per skill point assuming your return is 20. If you hit the max roll of 40 for all ten combines for one skill point, you’re barely topping 1g. And that is the highest-return T1 mat on the market right now.

The only way you could feasibly be making 3-6g per skill point on mats is if you’re farming the mats yourself. Which theoretically is an option. Not so much if you plan on personally farming 500,000 T1 mats to burn through the 1k skill scrolls the OP has sitting around.

Edited since writing “to” after “T1” triggers the profanity filter for some reason.

You do realize that there are other types of T1 mats and not just T1 fine mats yes?

Just as a personal example, I invested in Endless Wintersday Tonics back when they were ~20g the first time around. Thinking I was brilliant and could lose no money, I ended up holding them for > 1 year to break even, that’s a loss if you consider inflation.

Many traders won’t say when they lose money but many do. They buy the item thinking it’ll go up but it either goes horizontal for ages or just dips.

Another example are the time limited dyes from Gem Store. I bought ~500g worth thinking they’d go up but now they are only worth 300g. I have kept them for now but it’s a loss.

Another personal example = gossamer. Bought a bunch at 5s thinking ascended armor rush would lead to profits but I was too slow to cash in and it crashed to 3s or below very quickly.

Naturally I also make money from other investments but to say it is risk-free would be foolish. I’ve learned from my experiences and generally I lose less than I profit but the risk is definitely there.

Obviously people are more prone to bragging about making money than losing money so you have a sample bias if you believe everything you read on the forums.

I actually made money on lovestruck skins but I don’t feel they were really a solid investment, I could’ve done better.

This will probably be the same, rather invest in other stuff.

Got all my AP and got everything I wanted from the event already, not going back.

Yeah the separate Favors are sold on the TP, the combined product isn’t sellable which is odd.

That’s how I got my Mini Panda.

It’s not hard but people aren’t very bright. I had a team member who brought the crystal to the other side … lol.

Got both

So I finished this just now 10/10. You need to come top 3 or no credit towards it, also have to run from start to finish.

Really need to fix tool tip or the way of obtaining this achievement…

200 tickets, nothing so far. Would be happy with a ‘favor’ thing

Thanks for posting. I was hoping that the boxes would drop the ticket thing so I could get the Mini Panda AND the Dolyak tonic but I guess they do not.
