Rysdude.3824

I did some time on Vabbi. Spent about a month or so roaming around, watching map chat, and listening. Most negative experience I've had in GW2.

Edit: Would be an interesting match up.

I kinda like the idea of a lady bug skin for the beetle. That’d be really cute haha

And a large number of RP'ers on an active WvW player map is a hinderance for the world of those RP'ers. It means that the map gets overrun by enemies as the players who own the land can't get enough players onto the map to defend.

> He's not talking about RPing IN WvW... no one is EVER talking about that when they say RPers regarding this change. Currently, your WORLD/SERVER choice affects what PVE maps you get put in to. If WORLDS/SERVERS are now 100% determined by a PvP mode such as WvW, then RPERS will no longer be matched with other RPERS on PVE maps. Stop being obtuse. All we're asking is for a way to flag ourselves as RPers to increase our chances of being put on the same map as other RPers when we enter any PVE map, since we will no longer be able to get in to maps with other RPers by simply joining the "unofficial RP servers" Tarnished Coast or Piken Square.

Why not make an RP guild? Then right click and join instance?

Whatever that means, but no. Lol

Interesting, didnt know that. Thanks.

And thanks to the Staff for the communication!

You sound burned out. I just made a year and still have a ton of goals IG

How long are you banned for?

Every time someone mentions pre-nerf Scrapper I wish I had a chance to have played it back then. The espec is so cool but as of today, just doesn’t hold a flame to holo

If Elixir S’ tool belt skill wasnt so valuable (imo) Id drop it like a bad habit.

I didnt think that such a thing existed against the make believe

Um, you know this is a video game race, right? There are no asura in RL.

Hey there, still recruiting?

Hey OP,

This is my build for my holo. It's mostly for solo and small group roaming, as well as staying on the outskirts of a zerg and helping with some Cc. I'm fairly new to holo but I've seen some success with this. http://gw2skills.net/editor/?vdQQJAsenUUB9dhlXB2XBcJjFDDLMAMO6L93we4QU8c8B2AA-j1CBQBeR5CFPBAKU9n8ohQf6BK3DAAAHIgAcAB43+DYRJ1ZUCSKgqEa

Some food for thought:

-For me, as a beginner, rocket boots have been a saving grace (even non traited) in helping me get in and get out quickly. It's use to outrun people, combined with your stealth, have saved me quite a bit. Also, a great gap closer.

-Using HGH not only for the cooldowns on slotted skills but the passives from the trait line. I enjoy using Elixir U for a stun break but just wish the tool belt skill was more constant instead of RNG. Elixir S is great for ressing and stomping.

-Sword and Board works really well when traited for the condi cleanse. Shield 5 has helped me quite a bit against overly aggressive melee types.

-Two water fields with easy leap and blast finishers help with the sustain. Sigil of Cleansings plus traited Prismatic Converter helps quite a bit against condi heavy professions.

-I use Holo trait Enhanced Storage Capacity unit as it allows me to not have to focus on not overheating as much but also the added bonus for going over 100% heat. Most importantly (for me) being the added Quickness on Sword 3.

I'm a noob so I am sure there are better builds out there, i.e. full zerk trinkets over cavalier/zerk mix, but right now this is what I'm comfortable with. After playing nothing but the zerg heavy professions in WvW (SB, FB, Herald), playing a spastic medium profession has been refreshing. I especially like the Forge 5 skill as it feels like when Thor, in the last fight scene of Avenger's Infinity War, jumps in the heap of alien monsters and wrecks. Well, until you see:

Im really hoping it gets some buffs. Such cool profession skills (on sb) that Ive wanted always to try out but havent because of the current profession state. Crossing fingers!

Im not the most computer savy person. How do we repair the GW2 client?

Metas, maps, replayability and rewards in hot made the game more of a worthwhile purchase and experience than pof has done not to say that pof is bad but generally expansions should expand the endgame.

My feelings exactly

Saw and thought it would work with a roaming Condi Firebrand

Id prefer either one map be permanently designated No Downed State, or at least make it monthly/quarterly. It was SO. MUCH. FUN. And this is coming from someone thats not the best at PvP.

Is there any game like that?

Im from the US, living in the EU, and have played WvW in both for a while. For me, EU is most certainly better. Not sure about PvP talent, but by attitude towards the game and other players. More cooperative, and not so much “Hey look at me” or “me first” attitude.

> @"Nuka Cola.8520" said:

What do you consider a stale state?

I personally enjoy the scavenger hunt style of collections. And tbh, wish we had more. I can certainly understand the frustration though.
