I'm about 50:50 playing with guildies and playing alone.

Guess not? Did this happen on the SEC on one of the alpine BLs? I got that problem too, and had to hit in melee range in order to attack.

That has nothing to do with defender advantage and everything to do with blob size. If you have an equal defender blob inside the objective, you're going to lose--because you most likely are going to be fighting siege as well as defender buffs. Yep, because that equal defender blob are going to sit on mortars and arrow carts instead of coming out to fight. Or, if they do come out to fight open field, try to get people to follow them back into siege range so that the attackers can be sieged. This is why I wp from a tower if there are only a few of us and there is a map blob attacking. We can't even defend a t3 tower. You can't do enough damage to the attackers - they just sustain through everything you can throw at them.

I'm not sure how nerfs to sustain is a problem, after nerfs to dps. Lower dps == longer fights. Longer fights == more requirement to sustain. No buffs to sustain == need to last longer than before dps got nerfed.

arcdps is definitely a problem. I deleted the dll, which fixed my problem (crash once I had selected my character to play). A guildie has updated arc, and says it is still crashing their game.

They are not important for current gameplay, unless you are talking about the later LS chapters. True, that mounts are a QoL improvement in core maps, but they aren't necessary. Agreed. And you have to do a lot of the PoF story just to get the xp and mastery points required to 1. get more than one mount and 2. train those mounts into anything useful - including getting subsequent mounts. Point 2 being the exception for the beetle and the skyscale but the second one, in particular, would be a nightmare to get without some other mounts. It's not like the mounts and their masteries get handed out at the start of PoF.

Thank you both for your helpful comments. With all the glitzy particle effects on wings, influsions, etc, can reshade tone that down, or does it make those effects even glitzier?

Thieves have them too.

From my recall, it started prior to the Wintersday patch, so that wasn't what broke it.

Open world: condi-cleanse. Stability is also useful unless you have a pet/minions that attacks for you.

Thirded, or via the scribing station. The scribed ones already go into guild storage, so it would be nice to get the personal ones in as well. Same with spirit banners.

Can we have this as a selectable title? https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Love_Is_Bunny

Some of us wp away before we get into combat so they don't get us as well. We call out for help, if ppl don't come we leave. Post reset hours, the server matches for me haven't been able to have many people across four maps. We'd still have problems getting enough population across two maps. Other servers have also mentioned they have little coverage outside their main hours. Conclusion: remove a map. If that results in long queues for all hours for some servers, but other opposing servers can get in, there's an obvious imbalance in numbers. And imbalances of player populations is the problem.

What is "gfs"?

I tried it. I managed to get to the first checkpoint, but then the lava worm things kept murdering me. I managed it with a mesmer, instead.

But I can't remember how to switch to that version (I know it can't be done but I can't find the option anywhere). I think it's the default if you use a phone to visit the forum though. > > I can see both because in normal years I'm away from home a lot so I have the forum bookmarked on my phone and use that when I can't get to a PC, or times like now when I want to compare the two versions. > > (BTW you have 982 points.) Ah, thank you. I only visit the forums on my computer. I was hunting all over for them in my profile.

I have two main guilds. One is a PvE guild (we're on different servers) and do daily events together, like the daily strike mission, daily DRMs. If there is a daily dungeon a few of us get together and do that. We do guild missions on the same day and the same time each week, all PvE missions. The guild is super helpful, at least one person - as soon as they log in - are asking if anyone else needs help with anything. There's also normally someone putting a guild group together for tier 4 fractals, and so forth. There is an active Discord. I have a WvW guild. We raid in WvW five times a week, at set times. There are guild builds, people who can help with working out your synergies, loads of chit-chat (except when it's the serious fighting times) and an active Discord, although we use teamspeak for voice. Occasionally when we've been short one or two people for a strike mission in the PvE guild I've asked if anyone wants to join from the WvW guild, but they pretty much have no overlap. We also do guild missions, but these are all WvW ones. So it really depends on what you want from a guild. I enjoy PvE and I enjoy WvW so having a set guild for each interest is perfect for me. I haven't encountered a guild that puts the same amount of time into both sets of activities. And that's part of the fun of being able to have more than one guild. \o/

shift-R raptor shift-B springer (it's a bunny) shift-W jackal (it looks like a wolf) shift-G griffon shift-D skyscale (it is a dragon) x is my rollerbeetle, as I set this to the default mount so I don't need another key combo Only use the warclaw in WvW, so x in there.

An option in the guild panel that can be turned by, by those of a specific rank and above, and, if turned on, will automatically drop a random piece of base siege on any player in the guild who has died to fall damage in WvW. And maybe you could select a finisher to use, as well as the siege. I vote flame ram and llama finisher.

Where do you see your points?

Found him in Queensdale just now, but never located him in Metrica Province while he was available. Maybe it's a map-specific problem.

I get this as well. I can see damage, but neither of us are dismounted.

When a dolyak is killed in WvW, a ghost dolyak appears and floats into the sky away from the corpse.

A litter box for the cats inside your home instance. If you don't clean it once a day, all your home instance plant nodes die. For obvious reasons. And the plants don't come back until you've cleaned the litter box.
