Guild Wars 2

Hydrophidian really hit the nail on the head in this one. As much as I love stuff like the Home District, it effectively means I can’t interact with anyone in it. What you’re talking about would basically be making Home Districts for everyone, so there would be no random RP interactions, there would be no random non-RPers coming by and getting sucked in. It would make the community completely insular. And an insular community is a dead community. I think personal and guild housing will be enough (maybe even too much).

There is a reason why MMO’s with “official” RP communities have terrible communities, and one’s with “unofficial” RP communities thrive.

By the way, one of our lovely RP people has been tracking the server status over the course of the week (just started monday). It’s on an hourly basis, but it looks like Monday-Tuesday is the best time to transfer over.

It’s a growing project.

There’s one in the Norn starting area. Some dragon shaman summons an ice elemental. It’s an event, so drops scale to your level.

I believe I read that “tick” bonus damage from the “Condition Damage” was 25%. So if you have 100 Condition damage power (whatever the stat is called) you would get 25 of it as burning ticks.

I believe you all missed the OP’s point.

Condition damage- that’s a stat that increase the damage done from Burning.

Problem is, since burning doesn’t stack in damage, your burning damage can be overwritten by somebody else who uses a burn effect on the same target.

Only stacks in duration, so you condition damage was negated

No it doesn’t. If two ppl cast burning on the same target, priority is given to the higher condition dmg and the duration stacks. Basically it goes like this:

Player A casts burning for 5 seconds.

Player B casts burning for 3 seconds.

If player B has higher condition dmg, the result would be as follows:

Player B’s burning ticks first for 3 seconds, then Player A’s burning ticks for 5 seconds. At no point in time will your burning be overwritten. It will just be shuffled around in the load order, with the highest dmg burning ticking before the other ones.

This person explained it very well, but it seems to have been lost in the shuffle.

This was an excellent guide, and I particularly enjoyed the little bits of humor thrown into a very long (thank you) and comprehensive (thank you again) guide.

Plus, being able to read all of the weapon skills without having to flip flop through the weapons in game and reading the little tool tips was very nice. Also, your comment and extrapolation of the tool tips helped answer some questions I had about them.

Amazing job!
