up until Drizzlewood it was quite good, like a 7/8 (still inferior to S4 imo) but this second half... I don't hate it though, I'm enjoying the diff. mechanics with this 2nd round of DRMs but for a LW season it's extremely underwhelming to say the least. and I don't accept the reasoning that it's because the team is working on the expansion - S3 was running fast and even had that extra final episode whilst PoF got finished seamlessly; granted, different times and studio and yet, to portray an epic clash between Jormag and Primordus through these DRMs and "factions" alone is going to be hard to swallow.

Interesting, coming from two other games much more "toxic" and with a lot more "p2w" that had this feature, I never saw that happening in years, not once. > @"Hesione.9412" said: > In addition, what would happen if the group leader dc'd during the fractal/dungeon? They would be given at least a couple minutes of tolerance to return, during which time the party would have to wait or keep on by themselves; defeating a boss within the "tolerance" window would have the leader's loot mailed to them, not all of it but a portion of it. Since they often spend longer than that waiting around and rounding people up for the instance.

unless anyone here is an ANet former/current employee, whcih doesn't appear to be the case, we don't know if that'll come or not. Yes, devs years ago said probably not because of this and that, but things change, nothing ever stays the same, or almost nothing. Personally idc if they come out as a new race or not but I just find natural (new) players interested in it and asking for it, unlike the bazillion answers "no, no, no, get over it, etc." from other players that are just... players.

I just recall it from the story step during S3E4 when the White Mantle were breaking into the Palace but probably verifiable in the open world, too.

the beginning of the post that read "spawn camped by a thief" made me chuckle =P the reason I guess is to get ppl to at least try different game modes? and if you think WvW is toxic, man, you haven't seen toxic. To begin with, he fact opposing players can't chat already goes a long way... like others have said, focus on the non-pvp dailies, if you get zerg-banged laugh it off, change maps, keep trying different things and you'll get the Gift before you know it.

I'd add to the previous items Southsun Cove - go there for the Queen, then grab your 3 daily Blooming Passiflora nodes, chest from the Reef Rider champion & Skipping Stones JP (both easily cheesable with mounts), chest from Kiel outpost, cheese the easier JP (or just do it, easy enough) and go down for another chest on the ship. By running around the map you'll usually get additional shells from vet karkas and all the wood/ore nodes. I've found this to be a very laid back, fast and non tedious farm.
