One way to solve this (read it in map chat yesterday) is to change your presence ingame from “online” to “offline” and back (use “Y” to enter this).

They do this via block. If you block somebody, then you have a name.
You can accept that 1 on 1 Politely. decide on a place. Make it near his keep for his comfort. Block him. Make him wait forever as you play as you want.

Keep calm guys. As i posted in the other thread, all our assumptions are based on a text slush generated by google translate, which always has proven to do pretty bad translations. So all in all it might just be a bug fix where the skill simply won´t activate if the teleportation / shadowstep won´t work anyways. That means the pathing unable to find a path to the target, or as it is now, to find a path to a location which is as near as possible at the target. Whether or not this means that you literally have to be within the skill’s indicated range remains unclear. It seems unlikely though because classes with an abundance of directional movement skills, be it targetted ( Warrior Hammer F1, Engi Jumpshot) or untargetted (Warrior sword Savage Leap, GS Whirl and Rush, that Ranger’s Bee-thingy on sword, Engi Rocket Boots etc.) would be insta-buffed to the most mobile classes.

But we all know ANet right? We all know that ANet has the most terrible Balance team ever.
And look how people cry about it, but no one of ANet respond here.
If this change is going live, they wont turn it back. But now we have the chance that they wont add it.

Btw, that wasn’t a google translater

Could it be that Anet just “feeds” some of this in the world to see how the responses are gonna be? :P

I posted it above you and another thread. Guardian will be unavailable for WvW Smallscale/MidScale, even tPvP will be affected. In PvE you will be slow as ….
You say, fine, let’s do this. But 99% of other Guardians say: no. Pls not.
If your playstyle isn’t affected, then don’t talk YEA GIVE IT TO ME PLSPLS because it Won’t help anyone here.
Because of you signature, i think you are more the PvE Guy. Fine, but in WvW and PvP, Guards only mobility AND Burst build would be broken.

@Orpheal
Pls read the Threads, the source is official.

I talk about what and when in a matter I see fit for my personal opinion..Your reply to Orpheal fits you actually perfectly..READ what is written)
NO ONE needs your permission to do so. You make assumptions, you draw conclusions based on half read posts, so again..you’re not constructive.
Please do not use excuses or try to explain in anyway….
And as for the signature..I had a great laugh reading that particular post and choose to use this as signature..not PVX related

Next time, try to ask questions instead of replying kitten comments on players posts; can be quite clarifying

As example on your witty remark (which could have been “why do you say this? Do you know 99% of the guardians do not like this upcoming change?” )

I really couldnt care less about the nerf…lots of things are nerfed during last years and still players always seem to overcome the assumed challenges in creative and different ways (other gear, runes, sigils, trinkets, group formations, whatevers). So again..bring it on and challenge us to use new ways to rule. In about half a year this change will be implemented, dealt with and something else will be nerfed, triggering the same discussion for other classes..

Hope it helps

WvW no longer required for world completion

They should add something else as a reward for wvw map completion. Maybe make new weapons, or give access to mistforged for those who have done it or do it. Im not into wvw but i liked the fact you had to do pve and wvw maps because it was fair to both kinds of players.

I like the mistforged idea.

Getting it all done deserves some kind of hero title imo..it is supposed to be a challenge, not a walk in the park

[Merged] Clarification on teleport skills?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: metaldude.4132

metaldude.4132

This change makes me so frustrated. Chaining teleports to close large gaps is so much fun. This is really going to cause me to rethink my play style. Now, every warrior / ele will bring out their greatsword and disappear off into the sunset.

Also, I really wish Anet would comment on why they feel this change is necessary. There are classes with broken traits, cele in pvp, etc etc. I never heard anyone whine about teleports.

Why frustrated? Do you have ANY proof that the “leaked notes” are true? Don’t get wind up over something that hasn’t been proven to be implemented For myself, I only believe the patch notes on the day it is officially released hahaha. makes life so much easier

Grind is still grind

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: metaldude.4132

metaldude.4132

All grind of any sort in any game is optional. I guess the OP’s point is that he would like a discussion about how to reduce grind and increase fun rather than a focus on whether or not one person’s optional grind is acceptible while another’s is not.

You cannot..if you CHOOSE to achieve some specific goals/items/achievements/whatevers, then you have to make an effort..i.e. grind for it.
Still, it is not mandatory, so don’t blame the developers but the players who fire eachother up by showing what they have, thus triggering others to achieve/aquire the same

Let's talk about crafting speed.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: metaldude.4132

metaldude.4132

First of all, crafting boosters give extra XP; they do not speed up the crafting proces on itself.
But I agree on the fact that sometimes it can be annoying how much time it takes to craft a full stack of for example mithril ore..there is indeed a difference in what you refine.

It’s cool to hear, thanks for confirming that, but why do it in the first place? And any hint as of when they might return? (Like a week/month/year, so I know whether or not to get gems in advance x:?)

Why is silk going up in price?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: metaldude.4132

metaldude.4132

But the TP already provides that function. Just type in the amount of silk you need, and check its gold price. You now know how much gold you need to buy your daily silk.

But not everyone wants the answer to all their in-game needs to be “go buy it on the TP.” Not everyone wants to play this game like it’s the Home Shopping channel.

Maybe TP should change it’s name to Black-Wallmart ? XD

The New Dailies -- Feedback welcome

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: metaldude.4132

metaldude.4132

My 2 cents :

Since the introduction of the new dailies, getting my 10 AP has never been so simple.

It’s simple really. I’m going to explain this to you in a few steps :

  1. Do the gathering event and/or the mystic forge one in PvE
  2. Go to a glory farm arena and do the daily capper or daily rank points or daily PvP reward
  3. Get to a borderland and either : kill 5 guards/kill a dolyak/cap a ruin

There you have, your dailies are completed in 7 min. Just make the effort to look outside of PvE for just 5 minutes and you’ll see how easy it is. It’s not had to kill a dolyak. Just get here when it’s not rush hour and you’ll be fine.

+1

It is not neccessary to do all three dailies within one segment of the game..
1-pvp
1-pve
1-WvW

You can Always choose to use option to set “auto target” off and use tab to target manually.

There are times when I sit, head in hands, wondering what fiendish mind thought of the access route for a particular vista. I look around the lunch room and think “Which of YOU did that to me!”

I seriously, passionately hope that we have vistas in Guild Wars: Heart of Thorns, because they are the best way to see the beauty of the world, and the talent of our artists and level designers.

I just sort of wish they have an “E Z Mode” for people like me.

And if you find the culprit..do you kill him/her in PvP ? (I imagine smt like " you and me, PvP arena, NOW!!!) XD

There are many ways to get it but most rely on some form of luck. Hang out behind Teq, when he rears up to do his ground wave is when you get the achievement. Dodge, run, swim, get exploded by an abomb, jump… any of these should get you what you are looking for. Khisanth makes a good point about not needing stability but it does life a bit easier.

I know I got mine when an abomb exploded me over the tail and into teq =p
