Guild Wars 2

Gossamer and ori are rares now? O_o How are they different from copper ore and jute?

Farm? No, no, no, my good man. You can’t farm in GW2. Dudes in Anet think farming is bad, mmmkey? You just need to play for 89 years and wait for random powerful blood drops once a month to craft that armor.

1st of all I’d liek to thank all warriors for their awesome support banner in the middle of a boss fight. Why ressurect a party member if you can haz an awesome banner!

2nd – gief loot all button.

Trice, could you please tell more? I mean actual numbers of, say, Save yourselves, Merciful Intervension and Sanctuary?

And your gear :>

I’m a guardian too and I wanted to craft cleric’s exotic set + weapons + jewelry, cus I love being a support char. Always was. But it’s a bit expensive and I wanted to know if it’s worth it.

1st of all – explain to me, how a person farming mobs for 1 hour has no life? O_o

2nd – there are only 3 ways to make money: gems, TP reselling and CRAFTING MATS farming. DEs give 2 silver, yay. Drops sell for 1 silver, awesome. I could live with that if I could farm those blue/green items non-stop. But I can’t. Anti-farm code.

Funniest thing – this so called ‘anti-farm code’ does NOTHING to prevent botting. BOTS DON’T CARE ABOUT IT. They just farm.

Would you like the same for nodes? 1st time you gathered a node a timer starts ticking. After 30 minutes you can’t gather anything. Like it?

Or chat. After 30 minutes of chatting you get auto-mute to ‘prevent spamming’.

Just farm mobs in Orr, salvage cloth, open bags, vendor trash/blues/greens – buy @ Trading Post.

Target’s target!

YES.

Too bad for you its not 1v1. Anytime i see a support type, oh by the way thats what your describing, my entire team turns all guns on them and there gone in seconds if they dont back away. Its not that hard to burn a support type if everyone focus fires on them.

Too bad for you it has nothing to do with tanking. Or you’re trying to say that a proper tank in other games won’t go down if focused/zerged?

There’s an ahievement for 500 skillpoints. But you can get more. I made about 100 skillpoints after reaching lvl 80.

SiNoS.2147:

As you said your self. They are MORE TANKY. They are not tanks. They have no way to hold agro which is the primary defining role of a tank.

Teach me to hold aggro in PVP please.

In PVP a tank is the fattest, unkillable, annoying, zerg-leading sonavabich. Also has abilities that save his party – shields, ally protection, mitigation buffs and so on. Tank spec guardian for example. Yes, not tanky – a tank. Try killing one of those 1 v 1. Takes ages.

There you go

It’s about GW1 though, but I think GW2 has something like that too.

The whole reason for no-trinity thing was – you pick 5 RANDOM ppl and run a dungeon with no problems. But it’s not working. I already see these messages in /m chat:
LF support guardian/mesmer Arah explo!
LF tanking warrior/guardian

Despite what everyone keeps telling themselves – there ARE tanks in this games, there also are HEALERS. It’s a question of a spec+gear. Full cleric armor/jewelry, mace+shield, honor/valor guardian is a healer/buffer. Reminds me of Aion’s chanter. Lots of protection barriers/shields/HoTs.

Maybe you only get that recipe when you hit 400 Armorsmith.

I’m a 400 armorsmith – no recipes. Maybe they are discovery only. Or Mystic Forged.

Leveling in GW2 is so easy I got 80 in 6 days (I work 8 to 5 and I had no in-depth knowledge about GW2 mechanics or anything). Go to a map, do all hearts, 100% map, personal quest, all events you see. Rinse, repeat.

And if you still can’t – call a Guardian. He can use his #5 staff skill (wall) to push the NPC and unstuck him. That’s what I did on my guardian

Since I need a DPS spec for open-world farming, a survival spec for W3 and a support/healing spec for dungeons… SPEC SWITCHING plox?

You WILL need it when you will level other crafting profession. But cmon, it’s your girlfriend!

Except 99% of Aion players have their Inspect option blocked. I don’t even try to inspect someone anymore.

Heh, usually EU suffers from that – like maintenance during daytime in Europe (because of US). Now it’s vice-versa. Funny.

Pony.3256:

What are you talking about??
You can still get to 1-400 IN AN HOUR.
They sell an item in the gem store called CRAFTING BOOSTER.
Most recipes only call for two ingredients which are still cheap on the broker.
With the crafting booster you can get to 1-400 easily.

If they “fixed” cooking due to fast leveling, it’s their own fault for selling boosts in the gem store.

Well, if materials are cheap and you can still go 1-400 in an hour, then why do you QQ?

Cooking had to be changed. Before this you could level cooking 1-400 in AN HOUR. No gathering, just karma resources.

Before complaining, think about other crafting professions. Farming things like blood or totems isn’t fun. And you need hundreds of those. And they cost a lot at TP. Blood for example – you’ll pay up to 16 silver to craft 1 item (8 blood/2 silver). Which will give you +3 armorsmith. Yeah.

You do understand that ‘synergy’ only possible within a static group, right?
Say, you have PUG ranger, elem, necro, guardian and a warrior. What traits do they have? The guardian – is he a Shout build? Burn build? Meditations? What gear does he have? Toughness/Vitality? Condition/Power/Crit? Healing? He can’t just respec to a tank and still wear his dps armor – he’ll be useless.

Statics on the other hand know their roles from the beginning and their Guardian is a tank build, wearing toughness/vit gear, and a shield. Because he doesn’t need to kill open world mobs alone (which takes him ages in that build/gear).
