Guild Wars 2

Yes, close ALL the suggestions and feedback threads!

War is peace
Freedom is slavery
Ignorance is strength

No slow motion? Cmon man. 3/10 would watch again.

Axe approves … of at least 15 characters long axes.

Go full zerk with scholar/strength runes, if you want crit damage, then you’d need fury, so 6 should go in fire instead of arcana, change the 2 in water for 2 in Earth for Stone Splitters, also get Air Training in Air, you will get the same effect as 2 in Water. Sorry for the quick post!

I haven’t laughed like that in a while, thanks everyone! :’)

Best thread EU.

I agree with the fellas that say that AP = play time or achievements hunting. I was already practicing some solo dungeons and was getting a decent knowledge in Arah (thanks Spoj, deSade, Sam and the rest <3) pre my 3k AP. I’m nearing 5k AP (kitten, I can finally do TA with those awesome “5k ap, zerk, fast run, warr only” parties) now and this is generally just thanks to my dailies and any AP that come with time such as the slayer achievements, crafting etc.

It hasn’t been once or twice when I’ve been doing much better in my party with my 3-4k AP than the 16k AP fella. I’m sure you’d all relate and agree that there are bad players with 20k AP and then there’s Purple Miku with his kazul AP.

This will allow the title to actually mean something when scrubs can’t just join your selling party, kick you and overtake it to get credit for it.

Fixed it for you, mate.

Most elites are crap, what else is new?

10/10 would laugh again.

Maybe you’d like to enlighten me as to what engineers, guardians, rangers, and necromancers have that are actually worth using as something other than an afterthought then.

I like your way of thinking – other classes have kitten elites so we shouldn’t complain that ours are kitten now too.

I’ve never played an engi so I can’t comment on theirs, but I’m quite sure that Renewed Focus, Tome of Wrath, Rampage as One and Entagle in certain situations as well as Lich Form (dont belittle the class) are at better standing than our FGS right now.

Or maybe I should just camp Tornado all day long, kitten, Lupi you ain’t knocking me back, bud.

Pugged Lvl 40 fractal, not only did guardian do an efficient and smart Aegis rotation, but also used wall efficiently. Whole fractal took about 40 minutes with mossman, Cliffside, Dredge, mai trinn (8 minute mai trinn, from trash to end )

Today was a good day.

You should get us some drinks for that and ANet should introduce an achievement for such runs. Pug Master.

How do I find a mentoring person to help me? Is this a part of the LFG system?

https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/game/dungeons/Dungeon-Mentors-Noob

It’s path, not part. Each path has a different story, and different bosses in most cases, if you watch the cinematics and pay attention to the NPC talks.

Exactly, it’s so extremely situational that it even kittenes me off. The fire ele does kitten damage, the water ele does nothing pretty much, air is wtf?! and earth can only be used as a meat (rock) shield. And what’s even more annoying is that when you tell them to use whatever kitten spell they have, it’s bloody channeling so it will interrupt whatever channel you’re currently doing.

Yep, they are now. I can’t find any of my elites useful now except in very particular situations. Thanks, ANet, 10/10 challenging PvE content after the FGS nerf.

Just run ele and pop Swirling Winds in phase 2, though you might get kicked

But Lupi doesn’t kick in phase 2

Lol, 10/10 would laugh again <3

Arah path 2:

Berserker Abomination doesn’t leave enrage mode when hit with CC.

Again not sure if this was added in a previous patch, but it may be the reason the path got bugged after the feature patch.

You mean during his transformation phase or when he’s already enraged?

Using skills in this game confirmed exploit.

So after some of the posters on here suggested that I should try out the new leveling system before commenting on it, I decided to delete my mesmer so I can re-roll a new character and give it a try.

Well, I did.

And it’s kittening bad, seriously. I don’t know what was going through your mind at that time, peeps at ANet, but this is probably the worst leveling system I’ve seen in MMO. Weapon skills unlocked with levels, can’t equip offhand, DOWNED KITTEN COMBAT LOCKED, and then even the skills in downed mode locked out until like level 20!!!

Seriously, you’re doing great job fixing bugs during the last couple of days, but this leveling system … wow, just … wow.

NullPointerException

/goes back to crying over his code

Lel, that moment when you kazul Nike <3

Wait, you’re not Nike, are you? I remember his account name was similar to yours but I can’t remember what was it exactly. Anyway <3

I’ll only play my guard from now on, ez moneyz.

Casual bump, forgot to mention we also have cake and sweets!

Who let the hounds out, who, who, who

Considering my Lightning Whip hits in and between 5k and 10-12k, I’d be happy if every FGS auto attack tops at least 8k per hit.

I have a couple thousands from dungeons like AC, Arah and TA but I don’t think I care enough to get the title. As for the chest, probably an armor piece or a weapon from the same dungeon.

I was just pointing out, but I support your idea too, I’ve thought about it myself.

Kamui.4038:

Expect a hotfix within a week and a new tutorial and lockout on Ele GM traits thanks to your naughtiness. :P

Also, every recording of Strauss to be removed or nerfed to 30 seconds length.

You can already see that if you open the map itself.

Oxidia.8103:

Hammer ia still bugged if a person that carries a hammer and gets thrown off by wind the hammer sometimes gets stuck on the way down on some random cliff that cannot be picked up again. They fixed nothing.

Wipe the whole party.

Casually bumping this one. Thank you for the fix in Arah pt2, ArenaNet, it’s good to see you really looked into it and introduced a relatively quick fix.

Thank you for the short, but good time I got to spend with you. Farewell and all the best.

No need to go to uncharted territory : the AA of the FGS is simply weaker than almost everything

I still haven’t tried out the new leveling system but the hundreds of posts about it plus the videos I’ve been watching create an image of something very tedious in my head.

This is the exact problem with the forums. Most of the ones screaming about how terrible these changes are have not actually played the changes themselves. They just read what other people are posting (who also have not played the changes) and then regurgitate it. I have a feeling Anet knows this. It’s probably one of the reasons they don’t put too much stock in what people say in the forums.

I’m sorry but I don’t have a free character slot nor am I willing to invest in one right now after the patch and the current price of gems.

I’ve already seen Mike’s video and have spoken to a couple of friends who tried it out and their opinion is the same as mine. I approve of the rewards per level, but locking out weapon skills, downed mode, vistas and skill points plus the GPS thingy in the top right, is just pure ridicule with everyone who’s rolling an alt or joining the game.

About AC P2, I’ve only noticed the bugs being done in 2 rounds and it’s in there for a couple of weeks now. One of the ways to try to prevent Detha from bugging before that part is killing all the gravelings and oozes on the way from Foefire to the traps area. It has always worked for me so far, hope I’m not jinxing it.

Ah, another self-elected community manager… Well, I’m quite happy about the recent changes – not about everything, but all in all they did a pretty good job. Didn’t notice so far anyone in my guild or in mapchat complaining heavily…

Ah, another forum warrior who didn’t take his time to read through the topic or actually think on the fact I said “large part” not community as a “whole”.

Errr, no. Nothing new and what they changed doesn’t bother experienced dungeon runners at all. There are other ways to fix/avoid it btw (no nomad-bla required).

Are you you serious? We have people reporting that you can not proceed with the instance itself because an event inside there does not trigger. Go tell me how to run past Belka and do Path 2, please. And what’s the gear relation in here?

As a passionate GW player and QA member… how could you miss the forum posts about this old bug?

Have you thought that I maybe joined Guild Wars after the bug was fixed or should I have been here since release so that I can speak my opinion?

Please don’t insult each other, guys, the thread is for discussions not brainless attacks towards the members of the community who like the feature pack. I guess I should update the OP with the rest of the information that players report they’ve noticed in-game.

As posted before have said, don’t be fooled by the FGS nerf, eles still remain on the very top of the classes chain. Guardians are just as nice however I believe that eles extend much better across the various dungeons.

At the end of the day, it’s up to what you want to play

“No, no, no, no.” – Koptev

Well, it seems that ANet is currently putting a lot of effort and people into communicating around the forums. Chris Cleary on the dungeons subforums, Colin Johanson, GM Talon, Stephane on the general discussions. Obviously, we wont get even partial rollback on the changes made so far but at least the current activity from ANet’s side gives me a tiny bit of hope that we might see changes … soon.

Tom Yzf.5872:

Another change: Warrior’s adrenaline bar is now hidden when you pick up a bundle.

Does this mean when carrying, berserker’s power no longer is in effect?

Inb4

Warrior:

• Removed adrenaline bar and the mechanics itself to avoid confusion.

Well, I must admit I kind of saw that coming when they announced that the dungeon owner mechanic will be removed and didn’t clearly state that they will introduce rules and regulations (or different mechanics) that would protect the party leader/dungeon opener (in that sense the seller of the path) from being easily removed from his own party and instance.

Being booted of your own party while trying to fill it as in Etien’s fractals case will probably force CS to take actions, however I doubt they’d if it’s the case of selling a path, don’t know why I have that feeling.

frifox.5283:

Looks like anet re-opened that jump at the start of coe story which was invisiwalled that lets you skip to the end. It’s a bit tricky to do the 1st jump now but it works.

High-five to the dev bros

Re-opened jump, re-introduced bug with Belka …. are they implementing new features or actually rolling back to earlier states of the game? xD

Rasi, I think your daughters are the greatest flatterers of my characters And I’m very grateful, of course, and I’m sorry that you have to constantly buy and craft stuff for them after they see me having it

TA up and fwd:

I have guildies reporting that there are no turrets at Tree in Up and just one veteran spawning during the fight in Forward. I haven’t really paid attention to that but I surely didn’t notice the AoE spikes attack in Up. Can anyone confirm?

I’ve heard they’re also nerfing heart quests soon. C’mon guys, this is the opposite of adding challenging content >.<

All hail grandmaster Spoj bows down

Thanks for verifying it :p

Did you seriously have to necro this

GrimmR.3541:

TA:
Endboss doublehit spot has not been fixed, its just not visible that you doublehit him anymore. Just open the log and you can proove it!

You can see the damage over his head if you place your camera correctly :P so it does indeed still work.

Confirmed, did TA earlier today, observed the same behaviour.

For some reason, our cutscene had to trigger 5 times though. -.-"

I don’t think a petition is needed for all this. If there’s a sane person left in ANet, he will know that something has to change by all the negative feedback just in the first 24 hours after the release. As I said on my previous post though, anyone who is to undertake the job to reply to the community and make a promise is currently getting a lot of weight on one’s shoulders so ANet will probably wait a bit and find the best way to reply to the community.

I just hope that all those threads don’t die out with a part of the disappointed playerbase by then.

I think we should all also settle for the fact that we’d certainly not get an answer from ANet right the way. You know that those have to be completely polished before posting since we tend to put every word out of the context if it’d support our opinion. I’d be happy to see some kind of a recognition on the players feedback so far though.

Wookie, there are players on the Dungeons sub-forums confirming that the Arah path 2 bug with Belka has been around before and has been fixed with a very good consistency. However, after the patch hit the servers last night, P2 died completely as Belka wont trigger at all.
