> @"Cromx.3941" said: > Elitist idiots demanding Snowcrow's builds literally turned me off from strikes. The content is not that hard for starters and secondly it's getting pretty hard to find any content in this game that is not steamrolled by a few meta builds. Zero complexity in this game. Max power, max precision, max ferocity + cheese meta build and that is all this game is. > > Its a borefest as 75% of armors are irrelevant and the same percentage of traits and builds are as well. Like @"Cuks.8241" said, i never see ppl asking for specific builds for strikes (and even raids). You have often some role asked like heal, boon dealer, and dps (power or condi). As long as you perform your role, nobody will look at your build. But yes, if someone do less damage than the healer as a "dps", maybe they can ask for it..

For those who don't want to search for it : > @"Grand Marshal.4098" said: > We may get more content than the previous patch I suppose. The reference to the Dominion of Winds took me by surprise and I wish we would get a map there, instead of a possible DRM. Meh Tengu were annonced since the beginning of "champions" as allied faction, but don't expect new map.

I don't say that it crash every hour. But it crash. That's weird :(

> @"lare.5129" said: > anyway arcdps is fail .. get 5 crash game per one week .. to much .. currently removed. > I don't see any reason to panic if arcdps crash himself only, but if main client dgo down too - it smell fail for me. Have you updated it? It works fine for me and my friends.

As @"maddoctor.2738" said, there was a party leader before but some ppl abused it so Anet changed that.

Yes, same !

> @"Infusion.7149" said: > I hope "Destroyer of the Third Fortress" waves are actually confirmed to be bugged in CM. People say there's an invisible wave and even with aegis , unlike other DRMs, it doesn't get blocked. 1.9 million damage seems as though there's an extra decimal place or something. The range on the orange circle also seems to not be the entire size of the AOE when it isn't doing the channel attack with the green circle next to the statue. It's not really a wave. It is just the lava aoe which continue to do damage 1 or 2 seconds after it "disappeared".

> @"hugo.4705" said: > Congratulation btw you already turned the LFG into requirement fests for strikes, and even better, not even groups for your DRMS that clearly show it stinks: You are basically asking players to do 7 unnacessible achievmements since they can't find challenges runs on LFG and you are preventing them to get the new emote. (ahha cause nobody want to experience those DRM more than one time, understandable) Btw DRM lfg are put in "Champions" lfg not in strike one... So, maybe look at the right place?

> @"Svetli.4276" said: > It is not the game that fracture the players, it is the players who split themselves > the reason is simple, ppl do not want to be stuck for hours on a fractal, it is time waist, BUT HERE IS WERE I SAY i am good player, if you just tell me how cm 100 works ( i have done the other ones) i will be ok : ) YET i cannot prove that ! > > this cursed circle is the problem, it is ruining the chase for new players to star fractals, it took my chase to get more old kp (i am stuck on 9 now) it is adding new kp > > you understand that this must stop ! > the normal way is new players to start on LOW fractal level, and reaching level 100 they are veteran players. Is this not enuf ? why do veteran level 100 payers must split even more and more and more. You answered yourself in your own post : > ppl do not want to be stuck for hours on a fractal Maybe you're a good player, maybe not (9 old kp is really low) : we can't know as a lot of players think they're good but in fact not really. If you never have done the 100cm you need to do some training before wanting to join exp parties.

It is a dps report : go on https://dps.report where you can upload the logs from arcdps addon But you won't be able to see these specific fights if you don't have the logs.

No, he only talked about LI and "gear" barrier. He never said raid was the only high end content. > > It just don't make any sense to block this content behind AP... > I sad that we not have this block. I want to eliminate player from raid to give them chance try a lot of other content .. Becuse some people do raid, close wings, and think for unknow reason that they complete that game. People find fun where they want. If this is only in raids, that's fine, if this is in open world, that's fine either. No need to add barrier.

> @"lare.5129" said: > > @"Fangoth.4503" said: > > AP is farming skill not gameplay skills. worth nothing if you want to do high end content > everyone of us understand high end content himself. Open achievements for myself more high end content that do same 8 wings each week. And I more value player who have all legendary weapons than 3 legendary raid sets .. For many gw2 player be top 250 is more high end content that others, for another play on wvw is do high end content. > This game not all about raids, raid here is not high end for many people .. this is only part of big game. > And if new player impossible do raid in first year - this is ok for me (ofc we all know that it possible if person realy want that, so if person realy want - check videos how it do, make great rotation with properly class on golem, have few types of classes, becasue on each boss needed different setup for pro runners and etc) > And nobody here said raid was the only high end content (fashion wars 2 :p ). It just don't make any sense to block this content behind AP... But YOU can use it for your lfg ^^

> @"Dayra.7405" said: > Population didn't changed since 30.11. Maybe they forgot the update as they forgot relinking RoF is very high -> https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/World#Currently_linked_worlds

Updated population before relink and after weekly calculation :  Link for better quality : https://i.imgur.com/V0aQAeB.png

> @"lare.5129" said: > As for me raid should not give pass is not have some values achiv > for example 5k - win 1 open > 10k - wing 2 also open also > ..... > sad that any who **realy want** can start raid per one week after account creation. > > lol, ap means nothing^^

> @"Ashantara.8731" said: > > @"Cyninja.2954" said: > > The LFG posting is about finding a specific type of player. > Why not put up LI requirements for _all_ content then? How about world bosses? Yes, they are _so_ hard that everyone on the map should have at least 150 LI or be gone. ;) You mean somethings like this? :p

same (EU too) !

We know each release is going to get multiple new content updates in the weeks following its initial launch. > 2. We know the Ebon Vanguard faction is part of this release, which would imply that the Ebonhawk DRM is coming this release also. > 3. this means chapter 1 will have 4, probably 5, of the DRMs. Chapter 2 will likely have just as many, meaning all 10 are covered in the first two chapters alone. Leaving the last two chapters with other content > 4. This would be consistent with GW2's, and game development in general. There is no way they would be far enough along with content for the last two chapters to put it in the trailer like they did. So you saw that Ebonhawk DRM is coming in the **next** chapter in the trailer, but you don't like it, so the trailer must be wrong about it? Having other content with this chaper doesn't necessarily mean other DRM : it could just be another story instance.

Forcing players who play IceBrood Saga to buy both LS3 and LS4 to play all the DRMs, I don't think the devs have ever done anything like that before. > > There is nothing suggesting you will have to buy LWS3 and 4 to play all the DRMs. The DRMs are instances one access from the EoTN. Only thing you will need is the Champions episode. > > Two of the DRMs Mastery Points are located in Lake Doric and Thunderhead Peaks which are exclusive maps. Like I said, maybe they'll allow you to enter in the instance only, but I'm not sure that's possible on the current engine design. > > It was built specifically to lock players out of those maps if they don't own the content, hence teleport scrolls. But you don't go IN the maps, just in somes instances with the same assets, so no need to have previous seasons.

Here is why your opinion on your own enjoyment is, not only invalid, but also wrong. . You forgot the other way around C : I don't like it D : I like it and those who doesn't are wrong and should not play this game :p

> @"Andy.5981" said: > Can we also move the respawn on the checkpoint slightly so that when you die and return to the checkpoint it doesnt automatically cause the player to interact with the Portal to leave the zone thereby popping up the dialogue window asking you if you want to leave. Yep, but you don't need to wait for the respawn option. You can use the waypoint when you"re dead even if your party is still in combat.
