gogo

1 gold for getting the first fake power-up? LOL I’d be rich.

I love you

pullnointer.1476:

it’s actually very easy. I’ve done it 4man, I’ve done it in the most braindead pug ever, what are you complaining about?

pugs take longer than organized groups = not pugfriendly? are you for real? 2-3 hours?:D

I don’t care how you do fractals. Chanters still need to be fixed, because anet’s patch didn’t work the way they thought it would.

k

Kryptonite.9376:

LOL Report them. As if anet would even do anything about it. Also, as soon as I was kicked I confronted them about it and they played coy with me saying that oh they had no clue who did it someone made room for their guildie, when they were ALL in the same guild, then blocked me. kitten like this happens every day and people are allowed to do it.

exploits@arena.net

you should always, always take a couple screenshots of the run and their names if you’re not the one hosting.

lol yall unawares of what they wanna do and you neggin? solid wtf

LordByron.8369:

because this is a mmorpg ?
you are supposed to pug ._.
If you cant pug there is a huge flaw in design.

lol ok

Rising Dusk.2408:

Oh he totally is, but what he is isn’t really relevant to what I was saying; I just chose him as an arbitrary target for speed runners, and tried to provide justification for why speed runners like GL more. I could just as easily have said Tazza from SE or something. :P

bad pugs don’t think grawl is insanely tough?:d

I just wish they would fix this soon, so pug groups (they already take forever to finish in some cases) would come to cliffside and be content knowing that they will not worry about failing and wasting their time.

actually I’d like more of this please. you can already cp if you wipe, how much more pugfriendly do you want this game to be?

This is more about saving the time of people that do fractal than to be pugfriendly. Fractal is not even pug friendly at all. Pug groups take longer than well organized guild/friend groups. Not everyone has the option to ask guildies to come do fractal with them and they’ll have a party going.

Having to run this fractal for 2-3 hours just to reach this point and wipe with an almost impossible task to finish cliffside afterwards is ridiculous. I’ll rather be able to finish a fractal I started than to be thinking 2 hours later that I could’ve done something else. I’ve wiped a decent amount of time on this fractal and ended my run enough time for me to get to the point where I have to post this. I’m tired of the patch that never worked.

Nick.6972:

Rangers are horrible in Dungeons, no offense, but they are.
Warriors/Guardians + Mesmer is all you need.

Yet a party of rangers can beat every dungeon the game. Imagine that.

I can brush my teeth with a toilet tissue, doesn’t mean it’s anywhere close to a good idea

Nuka Cola.8520:

Is this supposed to be a good news? No one liked them… and i can assure you that for lev40+ EVERYONE will be skipping these two. So this is just two additional fractals everyone will skip like they skip dredge/shaman/cliffside. GG.

brb skipping shaman

…

XD

StriderShinryu.6923:

Meh… I like that they’re coming back, but I definitely feel bringing them back solely as part of the Fractal system is a poor choice.

“QQQQQQQ I don’t play fractals so I don’t give a kitten that it hasn’t gotten an update for 9 months now and I should always get all content the way I want it”

LordByron.8369:

depending on profession spcific mechanics.

it isn’t.

randomfightfan.4091:

LordByron.8369:

No thank you don t waste your and our time

Its unintended and not even interesting depending on profession spcific mechanics.

Is getting patched anyway….
And i think those sort of posts are more for personal glorification than actual to help, or people would be a little more objective on instances rather than suggesting how to use stuff to avoid mechanics that are not working well.

Sounds like something someone who doesn’t want to learn would say.

don’t bash lord byron, he has 300+ pristines!!! :<

The guy also tried to melee Bloomhunger…….. We picked him up after we killed it.

lol @ you not meleeing him

As stated before since you didn’t care to read it. Trolling as usual. It was a pug group and he was a ranger. Guild runs are different.

lol @ you not meleeing him in a pug

Wethospu.6437:

Heightened Focus actually just gives 9% Critical Chance so it’s not really worth of it. Last Chance is a big DPS increase on short runs.
I actually didn’t check did it even trigger so there might be room for improvement! (our run might be too short :/)

you didn’t seem to coordinate your first hit and started the timer half a second after somebody hit lupi.

zerotwo.4731:

lol I rather have this stay in so I can find pugs who can’t do it on 3rd fractal and carry them through. however they should make sure that it spawns 8 by default, not after a wipe. are you even 48 op?

IndigoSundown.5419:

dunno brah, I don’t think you can attribute too much to those factors.

CutePicsHunter.7430:

Well, if there are rewards for achieve points, then how about to at least make some skill-based achievements? Like completing dungeon without deaths/getting downed, or killing bosses for less than X minutes. For interrupting some dangerous casts. Dodging X attacks in a row. Heal other people when they have less than 5% of their hp, etc. Its not that hard.

yes, even more so because dungeons/fotm don’t give many achi points atm.

Zaxares.5419:

Honestly? I don’t think you’d ever be able to convert a PvE’er who wasn’t already into WvW as well. The holdouts are people who just do not like to PvP; they don’t like competing against other people, and they most certainly do not like being attacked by other players.

As long as WvW holds the risk of being attacked and killed by other players, you will never get these PvE’ers into WvW. (And of course, if you remove that, then it’s not really WvW anymore.)

bullkitten. I don’t wvw because it’s a boring, imbalanced zergfest

Erasculio.2914:

The issue is that MMORPGs have been made to cater to people who have time to spend, not skill. This makes sense from the point of view of a pay to play game, in which the goal is to keep people p(l)aying – if a reward is a matter of skill, some players know it’s likely they wouldn’t get it, so they wouldn’t even try. If something is a matter of only time spent, then everyone could get it, as long as they play (and thus pay) just a little longer.

this is what I don’t understand. why do people allow an imaginary carrot to lead them on? “rewards” don’t mean squat if all something takes is easy, boring, repeated tasks. I value fractal weapons over legendaries because all legendaries take is insane amounts of grind/rmt. also what’s the deal with people not being able to break a skill barrier? are there actual people in the world who think “oh this is too hard, I rather kill trash mobs in the open world over and over instead of trying to exercise my brain cells every once in a while”?

… instead of time played? not like they’re hard, but fotm gives nothing, arah gives nothing, no automated spvp tourneys with enormous prizes for winners…

What a well thought out and intellegent suggestion, complete with practial and creative suggestions to contribute to a constructive discussion that may one day lead to implimentation of exciting new content.

whoru to talk kitten here?

they should make these items slightly scalable, positionable, tiltable etc

Conncept.7638:

They put a pretty female human (most popular race) your character has been personally working alongside for months, against a shifty charr (least popular race) in charge of a marketinig company which for many symbolizes the gemstore and ANets recent greedy business practices.

Yeah… they might as well start getting the Elen Kiel version of the upcoming story ready…

pretty much this rofl.

Let’s replace it with this:

I support this post

I really like its chargeup sound, but when it’s firing, it has this weak sfx used in many other places in the game and you can’t even hear it winding down. pls fix

write a support ticket/mail to exploits@arena.net, reporting doesn’t do kitten

it could be really good with slightly less damage and radius on cannon, much bigger cannon platform and less breakable floors overall(like 1/3 of what it is now.)

This will not get implemented.

The reason it hasn’t been already is obvious. The items are destroyed because of intentional design, not because the devs “forgot” or “haven’t thought of” a Perfect Salvage Kit.

That doesn’t preclude the possibility of future addition.

Well, when you intentionally don’t put something in the game for gold sinking reasons, it’s a safe bet to say it will not be added in the future.

That’s like asking them for a magical stone that lets you use waypoints for free.

I do not think infinite mining picks/sickles/axes were expected at launch.

that are completely impractical to buy…?

splendid idea indeed

Anakita Snakecharm.4360:

pullnointer.1476:

because there is an underlying assumption that there’s someone being discriminated against here.

That’s a big stretch. Discrimination is a serious thing.

If you’re personally going to interpret “We didn’t word this as well as we could have” as “Whoa discrimination!” – well, that’s not really on ANet, that’s your own choice to view this in an exaggerated manner.

When you read things into it that weren’t said, you can’t expect everyone else to buy into your extreme interpretation and avoid things they would otherwise do to accommodate your assumption.

I think the new wording is better. Calling the old wording discrimination frankly strikes me as pretty silly nonetheless.

you completely misunderstood my point

marnick.4305:

As a man I object to the removal of my male supremacy. All women are sexist for not acknowledging men are the superior sexe.

/sarcasm.

yes because women used to go to wars and hunt for food in prehistoric times.

Serenity.6149:

Goes both ways. Why are people overly sensitive to the mere possibility of political correctness?

Esplen.3940:

Well, we are playing Sylvari, Norn, Asura and Charr who are not a part of mankind.

Well, real world expressions have nothing to do with a random game’s lore.

Serenity.6149:

Goes both ways. Why are people overly sensitive to the mere possibility of political correctness?

op has a point. tho it might just be for clarity’s sake.

I changed the title for clarity and am adding a modified version of the op coz it got deleted:

basically eles got a lot of class specific voiceover when swapping attunements, is there any chance of other classes getting something similar eg. guard virtues, mesmer shatter, thief stealth etc?

I know i didn’t tell them i would leave after i get my daily, but reporting me just because i don’t have enough time to complete all the 3 fractals is a bit eccessive.

They told me i’m an idiot, why i ask myself, i’m just playing as i want and at the moment i was just completing dailies and the daily does not force me to complete all 3 fractals.

You were being selfish and rude to the others, getting your gain at their expense.

I don’t think what you did is considered an offense under the ToS, but I would have reported you as well just in the hope that it was.

If that was a bannable offense, about 80% of the GW2 community would be perma-banned. Honestly, I hope the people that reported YOU would get banned for abusing the report feature. Sure, what you did was a kitten move, but you didn’t grief them, you didn’t do anything whatsoever that warrants a ban.

Tbh, your tryieng to justify something that is pretty rude, by saying that is how you play. In a fractals it can be hard to find another member, also if the whole group is having a hard time in the first place, yeah it may take a couple of minutes, if the group dont just get apart from the moment you leave.
If you need to do your dalies, its probably best to do something easiere, and something that doesnt hurt other people. I dont like to say it, but that was a pretty awfull selfish move, specially if you actually didnt have anything to do after.
Next time write that you only want to do dalies and then they can find another one to join them, or that you will find some1 to join them after that 1 fractal.

I came here to know more about what you think of it. I didn’t expect to receive hate mails after i left. Also i really had something to do after so i joined for a fast fractal to get the daily. I know there are easier dailies but i’m collecting every AP i can from dailies from 5 days ago while they announced the new rewards so that AP was important to me.

You purposefully didn’t tell them, and you actually say they’re the one in the wrong?

You didn’t think there’s something wrong in that line of thinking…?

why would there be? he didn’t tell them because it’s unnecessary. because one leaver is such an easy problem to solve it’s not even worth mentioning. so maybe it’s less drama if he doesn’t bother telling everyone. because one of them might just be stupid enough to take offense to it.

also did we stop being human at some point where we should be placing the interests of random people over the internet you’ve never met and will never meet now? I’m not saying you should grief and dump pugs with your guildie at maw on a 48 fotm run for more guildies, but this guy just went in, got what he needed, left, and this effects the party in no way whatsoever.

Elthurien.8356:

Mesmer greatsword is 1200 range, what’s your point? some classes channel magic through their weapons, warriors don’t use magic

my point is that weapons have an unnatural feel to them, because i hit the air and i still hit with my axe, meanwhile i strike right through someone with my gs and it misses.

this is also bad for weapon variety.

Blissified.8369:

the guardian sword uses magic in its number 1 (3rd chain) attack i always thought its because the guardian is using magic on his swing?

actually nvm the tooltip is just broken, the range is the same 130 for both, but i was talking about the first two hits, the third has 300 range as stated

Chase.8415:

128 or more slots in a backpck that carries plate armor?

Healing spells that cures conditions?

Dying and then resurrecting at the nearest waypoint?

Only one city with a sewage system?

Unrealistic and ridiculous, please fix.

^could he get away with the same argument if longbows had 200 range?

btw you missed a critical point of my argument

mercury ranique.2170:

GW2 is a social game that encourage helping each other. There is nothing wrong with a portal and wanting to get rid of them in puzzles is in my opinion very selfish and anti-social.

there is everything wrong with a single skill trivializing 10+ minutes of content in 5 seconds and you wanting the reward with no effort while others have to do it properly and actually play the game is very selfish and anti-social.

pullnointer.1476:

no it isn’t. is this real life? ………….

Politeness goes a long way, both in real life and in games. If you don’t act like a jerk in real life, then try to apply the same courtesy online.

because this can be classified as acting like a jerk

not srs

guard sword auto hitting further than hammer or greatsword?

war same range on tiny kitten axe as on gs?(all melee weps in fact)

unrealistic & lost potential on melee weapon variety, pls fix

it sometimes resets when given enough time(so can’t enter anything into text box) and i start popping every other ui in the game. it’s very annoying. fix pls?

kRiza krimos.1637:

Wasn’t trying to attack you personaly, but notion that only fotm is hardcore play doesn’t sit well with me.

I dont mind introducing it as reward for various content, since hardcore gaming is pretty subjective matter, but i see no real need for it tbh.

where do you see me state that? they could also be given to players high on the spvp leaderboard for tourneys and if they figured out a way to award skilled wvw play, because wvw players need this too.

Tolmos.8395:

Only add it to FotM if you also add it to open world even bosses.

Don’t make the exact same mistake in the exact same way by funneling all players into 1 playstyle.

sure, if they make them anything beyond sitting and spamming autoattack. otherwise people attending it aren’t ready for more levels I’m afraid.

Hard core players can spend hard core money they earned with hard core farming to craft-lvl hard core alts.

fractals doesn’t give gold, silly. also farming wasn’t, isn’t and never will be hardcore.

So doing fractals every day, for who-knows-which-time isnt farming fractals? Who is hardcore player, guy that plays for 10 hours a day? Guy that plays only spvp, or only pve, is he hardcore pve-er? Is hard core player one that only does fractals?

Why should there be connection between hardcore player and fractals, are hardcore players only ones that do high lvl fotm?
Feel free to skip questions you are unable to answer.

I will skip all because I’m too intimidated by your ad hominem
