Read the OP’s post closer. The spelling was intentional.

That wasn't the epilogue for the season.

I’ve been doing dailies specifically to save up enough spirit shards for them if they’re added but I wouldn’t really be disappointed if we didn’t get them.
The skins have always been hit or miss and they no longer stand out from other weapon skins. Anet keeps adding flashier skins in the game through rewards and the gem store.

I read again and saw you have a gaming laptop. I googled any issues with it and mouses and found one possibly implicating the power supply.
Not the exact same situation but something that could be checked out.
Also try a different USB port.

I’d say six hours to account for downtime and fails. This is for a group that knows all of the mechanics and can do decent DPS. If your group is new, expect to take longer.

There’s a difference between silence on issues and silence on upcoming things. This thread involves the latter.

We’ll probably get an announcement next week with Halloween starting on the 13th.

I vaguely remember having this issue when I used both a wireless keyboard and a wireless mouse. It went away when I switched to a corded mouse. I don’t know if they were causing interference with each other (they came from the same package) or if it may have been something like Bluetooth causing it.

They were intended to give players a way to work towards obtaining a precursor rather than relying on RNG or the TP. The costs were more comparable between the popular ones but Anet quickly killed that when they introduced LS3 and started adding ascended material drops to everything.

Or you could do a LFG that says everyone is welcome.

Use the ley line and your glider skills.
Edit:
Wait. I already said that in this thread. Why was this necro’d? There’s no hero challenges on LS maps... Castle top?

Anet design choice at the time and I don’t think it’s necessarily easy to go in and add checkpoints after the fact. Anet also tends to not touch old content.
> Second, can anyone explain why i can't damage the mordrem pods at all? They are invulnerable to damage and the dragon isn't up long enough to dps down to any sort of phase past 75% then he heals himself back to full life. I don't understand what I am supposed to do to complete this achieve.
I think you’re suppose to get hit by the attacks of the pods, break free, and then you can destroy them. I haven’t done that instance since like 2014 so I could not remember something or Anet did something to make it bug out.

Maybe the few times it's been a struggle I just had a bad group set up or a few bad players who knows. I'll find out this week as these boxes are fast and easy loot. Already got over 50.
And if I told you that I have done that the T1 twice without issues, would that change the argument? No.

It means you’re directing your counter-argument against me rather than the argument I was making. Whether I have done the T1 fractal 100+ times or not at all has no bearing on the argument.

It fine that we can agree to disagree.
Just an FYI that I had been ignoring the ad hominem parts of your posts as they had no bearing on the argument.

Content shouldn’t be toned down to the lowest skill level nor to the point that you can clear it the first time without any thought at all. The current scaling for T1 is fine.

If they’re spending hours on this fractal then it’s a player skill issue.

I'm not trying to start a fight with you but anytime anyone ever struggles with strikes raids fractals anything you find easy you in here saying everything is fine so I think you just don't get it. If you play t1/t2 and can tell me you and pugs find it as easy as the rest in t1/t2 then maybe your opinion could be correct. I just doubt you run t1/t2 with pugs so saying it's scaled fine is just a guess on your part.

> I'm not the op. All I said is I agree it could be toned down and no one but you would complain even tho you do t4 I bet. So it has no effect on you but you just want to argue and ask me to prove pointless things for no reason. It's not mine or your burden. Does the video show everyone's t1/t2 exp. Does it compare that fractal in t1/t2 difficulty vs all the others in t1/t2. I know it doesn't. I play them. I see it. Idk how the eff I can prove to you other then my exp. Go do t2 with pugs put you little unlimited pots in the bank. Drop you AR to 75 ish and you tell me how easy this is with pugs vs the others. But like I said I can almost guarantee you haven't step foot in t1/t2 with pugs so why should I listen to your opinion when I play them and see it.
Whether you are the OP or not doesn't matter. One side claims it was over-scaled and should be toned down. It's on the OP, or whoever is on that side, to back up that claim.

It's generally on the one first making the claim to back it up rather than place the burden of proof on others to disprove them.

Are you going to prove that it's over-scaled?

It's scaled properly. Your members were either under-performing in regards to DPS and/or the doing mechanics.

Sure bugs happen but is it realistic to believe that one could have occurred which consistently targets specific players while ignoring others?
Yes, it’s not on the customers to explain why the system behaves like it does. It is also Anet’s job to find and fix any bugs assuming they actually exist.

It's probably because of those chests that players have been farming in fractals all week.
