Dragonfall is one of the best metas in the game. So much to do, and you feel like you visibly contribute. Soloplayer friendly

Way too abuseable. Like a guild group of twenty pumping up their guild leader

Op clearly have no idea what they are talking about. In pve its one of the lowest performing classes.

I ended buying the last 5 charrr special missions, as I came to see that several of them would activate on content I already was doing. Including one to off the claw.

Theres nothing wrong with HoT. Its pretty easy now, and mounts trivialize the content.

Poor idea, the skills have absolutely zero use outside Drizzlewood

I can only agree, the essence system is poorly designed.

Yep, a vote for autolooting them.. But hopefully this failed essence mastery and skills stays behind in IBS.

On a skyscale its very useful, and letting you dash through a field of fire.

And its 8s on 30s cd now

the new mount stealth ability is a godsend to deal with snipers.

Yep, this whole meta is way too long. At least they fixed the issue with the southern meta where many chests would not give any rewards after slaying a keeper.

The southern meta is so much better designed than the northern one that its staggering.

I've not started the latest LS yet (I tried, quit after 5 minutes of mute movements), but as of now, I'll need 20 more mastery points. And I don't see any I can get without having to do things over and over and over and over and over and over again. Especially if those things take an hour or more to do.

You can get medizookas, emp pulse skills, and land mines, which are a nice thing to be able to use in any map. Ep 4 brings a new mount skill that makes you invis, for whatever that’s worth to you. They even have brought back mushrooms, which I use a lot still, and the ley energy gliders which I use also rather than mounts sometimes. The new essence skills are use widely across ibs maps and strikes, so I get a lot of use of them, as clunky as they may be. It really helps big time having those masteries leveled up, imo.

> So, I don't even have those waystations, because I don't have the mastery points to get them. I presume that mount skill also needs mastery points and will be added to the end of the list because I don't see it in my list of masteries I don't have.

Theres far more mastery points than needed in core, hot or pof. So far only icebrood saga has been stingy with them. So you can pick and choose what fits you best to pursue.

Ive each and every mastery line completed

Spare core Tyrian x23

Spare HoT x20

Spare PoF x18

Spare IBS x2

Only really Icebrood saga has taken a lot more effort. But still quite doable, and allowed me to skip the worst of them.

Some gathering tools are much slower than others. Why I stick with the unbound set.

Then you have no idea what you are talking about. With the masteries you open up the maps with your new skills. A player with full souped up mounts and gliding makes hot and other areas a total breeze. While newcomers can only watch as the skyscales and griffons soars above. That -IS- progression. It will take a long time for someone open the Skyscale for example, and a longterm goal to work towards and earn.

Masteries is about the only meaningful progression in GW2

I stopped even trying for achievements outside of filling masteries. Ive better things to with my time. At least theres just about enough without having to delve into painful ones.

Make use of the new mountskill to stealth.

Huh, I see. But it would still be a new mount ability we got today, which wasnt advertised.

> first try was 2h10m for me. i mean its rough because you can't sneak into maps on 2nd half now cause so busy so u must commit to 1 map for over 2h

Things should slow down once the rush is over. Its always busy on episode release.

Sadly they abandoned the branching paths of classic guild wars 2

He must be, theres no extra glyph slots. Though anyone leveling to 80 should have consumable gathering tools for all slots.

Ryland made his choices, he have to pay for his sins and that rampant ego.

A lot of people had speculated it might be a skimmer underwater skill, which not exactly fit into the theme of the new map. But after I got the mastery unlocked for it, I realized what it was meant to help with. All those snipers just about everywhere trying to fill you with holes aplenty.

It started as 5s stealth on 40s cd

But now after the new build? It got buffed to 8s stealth on 30s cd, and adding 8s of regen.

That is really REALLY good to deal with ranged mobs trying to hit you. Primarilly using Skyscale myself, and using dash a lot, Ive not felt too bothered by the snipers. But its useful for when out of endurance.

> I do find these beautiful, I’m just personally waiting for more variation. Now if truly pink weapons came out I’d be through the roof with joy! Love struck and devoted don’t count. Gold and silver from years ago. Meanwhile we’ve had at least 4 or 5 blue sets and 3 fire by my count (min) within last 2 years.

Looks like a recolored Exordium, which is more pink hued. The legendary greatsword from Dragonfall.

Means simply dodge two attacks in a row. Could be the wolverine rearing up at you twice, or once and jumping over the nova blast as well.
