How come you played for enough time to complete a legendary weapon but can’t carry bads thru AC? I’m seriously having a hard time to understand that.

Guess what most people did to collect all that money?

I’ll give you a few tips. Most of them hardly played the game or did dungeons.
Endless CoF 1, RMT, Gold buying, TP flipping, recently Deadeye farming, ember/Frostgorge/Scarlet invasion farming etc. comes to mind.

Most players i’ve encountered that have a legendary were absolute trash tier or close to it and sometimes they were acting like they mattered in groups with their PVT or cleric gear. I said most, so don’t start getting mad at me if you’re not one of those Legendary heroes.

So true. It just goes to show that you can achieve anything in this game by being a casual. -_-

Shhh if we complain they will take another year to release it!

People that kick others to sell their spots are scum. If someone is in the group and gets to the last boss with the group and ends up being kicked, that should be a bannable offense.

In any case I don’t have to deal with this kitten because I don’t ever pug. And it’s for this reason.

You sound like the kind of person I would kick.

Cool. I don’t pug, I have an excellent guild that I run with so I never need to see the bottom feeders in my groups. But it’s flattering to know you’d kick me <3

Whoah now, if I ever feel the need to experience what it’s like to push thumbtacks under my fingernails I’ll let you know. Some time this week I totally plan on clearing every single mob in Arah P4, and jumping walls to make sure I clear all the mobs in the other paths before I finish. :o

Nobody hates you. I don’t think many people even know you.

By the way, you’re wrong about them being the second highest DPS.

nope. in organized dungeon groups its like ele>guard>thief>warrior

mesmer has the lowest dps if im not mistaken, not counting reflections

Face and Palm reunite for a second epic battle. WHO WILL WIN?!?!

Many people kick a ranger when they are pugging. I kick any guardian that joins because almost every time without fail they are running some tanky leeching bs and don’t bother to use their virtues. You got lucky XD

Well if you’re on a ranger you can just pop on off into the water and kitten with people indefinitely.

LordByron.8369:

why should not be called easy mode a tactic that completely prevents AI to use the most Dangerous attack boss has?
Also helps you to ress faster downed players and makes sure that every combo field and buff is Always effective…..

Its legit, but its easier.
Anet should start rebalancing ranged combat….
WHoever did fractal did it way better than dungeon.

Risk/reward is way better there.
Ranged combat is usually easier (not Always) than melee but takes more time.
In dungeons ranged combat is usually harder but takes more time anyway so is pointless.

I say that because there is still a risk that it can go very very wrong. Spider can still use that large kitten attack if not pulled correctly or someone moves, lupi will kitten you up if you don’t dodge kicks and grubs etc. Many pugs will actually have a harder time in melee than ranged on bosses, especially if their dps is not up to scratch or they don’t time blocks/reflects/dodges that kind of deal.

Zelyhn.8069:

It’s a lively 10:30 here in Holland, the weather is aweful as usual but it’s a good day to here about your hatred for exploits!

I think there’s a language barrier. o-o

it’s like 2:30 in the morning. I just only skim read what he said so I’m sure he’ll live.

Zelyhn.8069:

Just tell them what you thought all along, tell you despise exploits, tell them you regret

Wat.

Oh and edit- unfair practice is just your opinion

i agree if someone decides to los kohler or melee spider queen is choosing to take advantage of lack of balance thus should not complain if the game is easy.

Coming up tonight at 11, Meleeing the spider boss is exploiting. More information on ranged and pvt gear revealed at 8.

Aaaaand stay tuned: right after a short commercial break an exclusive revelation on how our guest Swiftpaw just admitted that LoSing Kholler is an exploit, don’t miss it!

They always say I am a mean person. /feelers

Oxxy.7068:

What baffles me about all this is that some guy who runs a burning based build gets touchy because the OP was looking for a good transition from tanky to DPS and some nice people provided him with facts.

I feel bad for him.

Wait wait, a village idiot still wants 3r 2n? God that joke was so last week.

Zelyhn.8069:

Hmm
I studied statistics a bit and well, that’s not the law of large numbers!

I mean, come on, just use wiki…

Actually my argument is not mainstream, in fact it is against the belief of the masses. But being one against the majority does not make any statement valid anyway.

omg that pic. Saving that kitten.

Zelyhn.8069:

I agree with you, it is hard to know.

I think that as a general rule we can say that encounters were meant to be challenging.
Skipping arah is actually challenging.
Hacking the console 1-4 is not challenging.
So if a technique makes an encounter not challenging then it is unintended.
Also we could consider a role play factor

(Yes Swiftpaw, challenge is a subjective notion)

You’re being subjective about how subjective you are when I am telling you that you are being subjective while being subjective in a subjective fashion.

Zelyhn.8069:

I’m telling you that you will understand my point when you grow up!

What. I don’t understand.

Zelyhn.8069:

How weak of me to think I can make a point, especially a law of large number point, without any evidence? I could tell you about the state of the gaming market, I could tell you that the proportion of achievement based games is higher than ever and still increasing, I could tell you about the the decreasing amount of time that people spend on individual games before changing, but that would not be enough would it? I should have recorded my life and that of all the gamers I know to be any close to have the evidence required … Too bad. I guess you win this one Swiftpaw.

Well it is hardly a surprise, this discussion is not new at all. This matter has been discussed over and over. And every time it probably ended up just like this: with lack of evidence from the defendant.

That reminds me of the type of discussion I had with my parents when I was a kid. I would always come up with the best arguments, I would destroy their logic and bring them to the brink of conceding. But every time they would simply end up telling me that they are right, that I should do as they say. They would tell me they would not be able to prove their points to me at that time, but that I would understand as I grow up.

Oh but wait! Now that I am all grown up I can see it: they were always right!

Could that mean that sometimes people can be right even though they have no evidence to back their claims? Does that mean that maybe the only real way to understand their point of view is to have the maturity to see it for ourselves, with good will?

Mysteries of life … Hm! Anyway I always like a good story

/sarcasm off
I am an Azura dude, I know what I am talking about.

What are you even blathering about? O_O

Maximillian Greil.1965:

if you’re trying to optimize dungeon runs you’re doing it very very wrong xD

Have fun with your hour long dungeon runs

You think content should take less than an hour in any game? Besides, a group that isn’t optimized doesn’t mean it’s totally bad. A decent group, with decent gear, and non-specific classes or non-optimized builds can still clear stuff relatively quickly if the players are good.

So dungeons should take an hour or more, and if they’re faster well.. Ya’all need to calm the kitten down!

It’s all about how decent the players are. I can wear full pvt or clerics and whatever random traits, it’s cool because I’m such a decent player that all the damage numbers magically get buffed up to what they should be as if I was wearing zerker.

ok.

Ah you see Guang, you were oppressing their I play how I want emotions. You elitist scumbag you!

Intuition is just observation and reasoning that you are not consciously aware of. So hard to explain.

You are forming your argument based upon your feelings or intuition. Easy enough to state instead of saying ‘My general comment remains valid’ and then supplying your opinions which do not, surprisingly, validate themselves just because you’ve stated them.

No my argument is logical. What is based upon feelings or intuition is the perception of fun. I am reasoning on the matter of a subject that is considered to be subjective. Luckily for me there is something that beats subjectivity: the law of large numbers. If my observations are numerous enough then I can draw a general rule, which I did. It may not be valid in all cases, but it is generally valid.

You have yet to supply any evidence. Logically you should if you want to make such claims.

Zelyhn.8069:

“Subjective” is just a way to say “hard to explain”, it’s like religious beliefs, or Russia’s foreign policy.
But I am an Azura and I can explain everything.

Subjective- (comparative more subjective, superlative most subjective)
1.)Pertaining to subjects as opposed to objects (A subject is one who perceives or is aware; an object is the thing perceived or the thing that the subject is aware of.)
2.)Formed, as in opinions, based upon a person’s feelings or intuition, not upon observation or reasoning; coming more from within the observer than from observations of the external environment.
3.)Resulting from or pertaining to personal mindsets or experience, arising from perceptive mental conditions within the brain and not necessarily from external stimuli.
4.)Lacking in reality or substance.
5.)As used by Carl Jung the innate worldview orientation of the introverted personality types.
6.)(philosophy, psychology) Experienced by a person mentally and not directly verifiable by others

Bright.9160:

Yes, because the way we clear dungeons obviously isn’t challenging, that’s why everyone is doing dungeon paths in 10-15minutes.

Oh wait…

Get it

Sometimes I just stare at these forums and laugh manically. It’s just full of…. yeh..

All praise be to Baphomet at the end of the day.

Zelyhn.8069:

Yes it is a completely subjective opinion.
You may decide to ignore it on the basis that it is subjective, or you may decide to see if there is some logic behind it.

Some people find it fun just to get loots. I call them Excel players. Similar to those who farm diablo III: get items so that I can get items so that I can get items and then get bored.
So these players satisfy some short term view of fun.

Some people find it fun to enjoy the game they play in itself, rather than the few lines of text that tell them “good job you have finished the level you can now do the next level which is the same, with bigger numbers, but you now have bigger stats to match the bigger numbers of the level!”. So basically: the players who enjoy the trip rather than the idea of finishing it. These players satisfy a more long term view of fun.

My point is that it would be beneficial for the players and for the game to look for more long term fun.

Also your idea of long term fun is not the same as other’s.

Zelyhn.8069:

Sure OP, I can understand that. If it was a learning run then of course they should listen to you

My general comment remains valid.

Because that’s what glitching is: not playing the game.

I doesn’t remain valid just because you smugly insist it does. It’s your opinion. That’s all it is.

Oxxy.7068:

@Zelyhn
You don’t think it’s fun, i do.
The worst thing about players like you is… according to the OP it was supposed to be a learning run, (meaning he’d probably teach the usual mambo jambo every pug does, and lets face it, nobody does 1-1-1-1-1) and yet you feel entitled to ruin it for 3 other players trying to learn because “it ins’t fun”.

Ps.: I wish i had 10s for every post that stated “it ins’t fun” and “stacking/LoSing is wrong/non-intended” (with bonus 5s if it mentions healing, condition damage and crowd control builds), man i’d be rich.

I would be rolling in money. Factor in the ‘I play how I want’ and ’it’s my playstyle!’ comments and I would be baller.
