I would like outfits in Rift, you can pick the parts of the outfit that you want and combine them with pieces from another.

I would love a new underwater world that is a mix of water and land. New types of enemies not just a rehash of old ones. ( Rift did this really well). With the next expansion a new level cap would be great( level 100). Add all expansion to world completion for those that have the expansions. Solo dungeons and be able to hire npcs to do them with you if you can not find enough to do the dungeon you want to do. More fluff to buy like being able to by pass the quests to get the flying mount and just buy it. More hair styles, colors and tattoos for all races.

The side of the case is what I meant, they come on and off very easy.

The last pc I built had a wire that had to run over the videocard and it was noisy because the wire was hitting the fan. Open it up while running and see what is making the noise. it could be something as simple as that.

Right, I thought of that too! especially if the tower goes on a carpeted floor and the PS is blowing the heat under it. Or he may have used an old tower with a new ps that is blowing the heat down and there's no vent.

No it doesn't , if you ever change games you will be fine. I always advise family when buying parts for me to build go with more than you ever think you will need.

> Just a thing to add. My guildleader is online a lot. She is building three guilds and doesn’t count on people helping. She loves farming, but also loves to farm with a lesser attention span. So she plays the game buy letting her minions kill the enemy while she is chatting or doing other things while being behind the keyboard. You can think whatever you want, but arenanet stated that this is allowed. The rule is that you have to be at your keyboard. The other day she was harassed by someone who was really full of her being a hacker and a bad person. A GM approached her in the gold chat and she responded (and proofed she was at the keyboard). So she was not cheating but this person kept harassing her. She is a kind lady and only blocked him.

> Bottom line. Identifying bots or hackers might not be as easy as you imagine. Arenanet is doing the best they can and are successful. But some people you think are hacking, might not. And some people who do, escape. It is just not easy

That has happened to me in various games. Always farming and ignoring people who sent ims. Just because we can use a complete circle over and over to farm doesn't mean people are bots. If someone doesn't answer you doesn't make a person a bot. That is one thing I could never understand is why people are more inclined to make noise when my farming doesn't interfere with their gaming. I find just playing my game is better than worrying about everything other people are doing.

My case fans came with a slide to adjust the fan speed and they are the only ones I buy when building a new pc. I also go for the more silent fans that cost a bit more.

These should work well for you. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835103052&SortField=0&SummaryType=0&PageSize=10&SelectedRating=-1&VideoOnlyMark=False&ignorebbr=1&IsFeedbackTab=true#scrollFullInfo

The only overlay I have is with the gforce driver. What and where did you find that in game?

> You don't seem to be understanding...

> YOU don't have to jump manually to anything. When you're in Core Tyria maps (Silverwastes, Dry Top, Southsun, Magguma Jungle, Kryta, Shiverpeaks, Ascalon and Orr) the game will start giving you CORE TYRIA Mastery experience for the Core Tyria Mastery you have in training (a check mark shows on the icon on the left side of the mastery). When you go to HoT Maps (Verdant Brink, Auric Basin, Tangled Depths, Dragon Stand and all the LW Season3 maps) you're getting Heart of Magguma Mastery Experience for whatever HoMaguuma/HoT Mastery you're training, that's done automatically.

I understand what you are saying. What I am saying is I was stuck at 63% trying to fill lean gliding all in hot maps and it never budged. Even the experience bar didn't change to the gliding as the gliding bar should have been only a 8th through it, the bar stayed full. Hours of fighting and events never moved the gliding bar past 63%. So it did not switch automatically and even opening training and trying to click on it didn't change it.

I know that but it will not change to or level hot's lines even though I moved to hot's zones. I have totally finished my hot story line and between jumping around with alts the tyria lines won't change when I try to make the hot lines come back up. It's highlighted but I have been stuck at 63% for lean/gliding after playing all day even though I changed to that, the full bar for tyria will not go away no matter how many times I click on gliding lean techniques. I have jumped back and forth before with no problems. I have already spent 96 mastery points.

My mastery line in central tyria under fractals is filled but I do not have any mastery points to spend for the line. My problem is trying to go to hot lines/lean gliding will not activate to finish filling that line. I made sure my personal story was started over for hot and that didn't help either. I thought we could hop back and forth between lines but when I try to activate the lean gliding line it will not move to that and it just keeps the full tyria line there. What am I doing wrong? I am clicking on the lines to activate them as I have done it before without a line being completely full. I hope someone understands what I am going through and has some kind of an answer for me. Thanks in advance for any help!

Effect LOD, check the box.

There are profanity filters, use them. If they are still being rude, just block the person and don't worry about others being bothered by them. I happen to block rude people all the time that aren't even being rude to me, it's no biggie. You have a choice in life, sweating the small stuff (this) or blocking them and going about and enjoying your game. Once the bully isn't getting the attention they want, they will stop or go to another game to try and bully people there. Every game I have played has had this problem but you can't be called a c*nt if you use the filter, that is why it is there. Even if you don't want to use the ignore feature, just do what many moms do when kids throw a tantrum, we just ignore it even when it's in our face.

God I hope not, I have only played core and have no desire to play anything but. I know I am weaker but I just want to play my way and have fun and not have to change because the dev's like the newest build best.

Just respect you build and see how things go. I play a staff build and rarely leave fire unless I have to because I just want the fire mage! have fun with it, the elementalist mows mobs down. POF is the only time I have had trouble and I tweaked my gear a bit and I am golden again. Throw a few sentinel pieces on for jewels and staff to boost toughness and vitality. Also use signet of earth if you don't want to switch attunements all the time.

This is wonderful!

This is a simple easy staff elementalist. I have no skill whatsoever but I love the elementalist to a fault. I die less on her than any other toon I have. She has decent power and survivability. Once you get to POF zones, use 2 acc and amulet with power/vitality/toughness and use a sentinel staff but keep the berserkers still too. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQFAWhUMoohNNwvB0RMIAYylsEkCq3QT8TGBgCwDA-jxRBABLcBBoZ/BKV/5KlfA8gAwTHhZKBJEggtA-e

Even if you purchase the expansions and boost, you can still play the lower zones to learn the ropes, you are leveled down to fit the zone/quest areas.

> Speaking of healing, is the signet the most effective way to regain health or are any of the other options worth considering? Because of the complete lack of healing power in this build I find that you get relatively little health per spell when using the signet.

Glyph of Harmony is a better heal.

> @"Morticoccus.6540" said:

> After returning to the game for the new expansion I find that my glass cannon build kind of dies horribly as soon as it gets swamped by the new mobs, kiting isn't ideal against some of them either so I was wondering if anyone could suggest an elementalist or tempest build I could use while actually getting the HP I need to unlock weaver?

> The endgame stuff is all well and good but I find a lot of those builds focus on either getting or sharing buffs from/with other members or relies on having someone else that the enemy focuses on.

I love this build! http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vFAQFAWhUMoohNNwvB0RMIAYylsEkCq3QT8TGBgCwDA-jxRBABLcBBoZ/BKV/5KlfA8gAwTHhZKBJEggtA-e

Use full berserker gear with strength runes, spec fire 1-1-2, air-3-1-1, arcane 3,1,1. All jewels ruby but acc & amulet should be a vitality/toughness. I also use a sentinel staff with bloodlust and force. I also have a berserker staff and full ruby acc and amulet for when I leave the pof zones. My build is a power/might build. My utilities are Glyph of harmony, Glyph of elemental power, Glyph of storms, Signet of earth and Glyph of elementals. It may not be the best out there but I have fun and hardly die. I also eat orrian fritters and use the level 60 sharpening stones since the nerfed the level 80 stones.

> @"Wolfric.9380" said:

> I would not run water. Most easy to use base build mostly camping fire is fire, air, earth for me. Arcane instead of earth for more punch but generally when going arcane you already go for advanced play. Water is only useful if you stay backline just nuking never being hit .... pure offensive base staff is zerker fire/air/arcane for me and it´s fun to play but a squishball .

I am so happy with this build that I haven't even wanted to try tempest or weaver. With Glyph of harmony, Glyph of elemental power, Glyph of elemental storms, Signet of earth and Glyph of elementals I really don't feel squishy until I hit POF zones and I adjust a bit for that.

I play a simple staff power build, fire-1-1-2, arcane-2-2-3, air-3-1-1. Everything is berserker but 2acc, 1 amulet and a sentinel staff for POF zones but i have a berserker staff too. Sig are force and Bloodlust, runes are strength. I rarely die and I solo. I can take on average 2-4 mobs easy and up to 6 with no problem, depending on the mobs. Use 4 if the mob melee just watch where you are when using it. I hardly ever leave fire either. Use level 60 sharpening stones and orrian steak fritters. Good luck.
