    I don't think it's THAT bad but it's definitely a bit long and has some annoying parts.
    I think if they made it so that killing the little yellow-named gravity things on the drills reliably stopped the forced-movement spinning effect, and grabbing 2-4 orbs as a rabbit in the boss phase instantly undid the transformation, it would be a lot less annoying to run. It just doesn't feel fun when you lose control of your character like that and just have to wait until it's over without a way to prevent or speed up the delay.

    I'm a new player and I dig the whole "army commander" feeling of the warrior, with the horn, the shouts and the banners, but after leveling a bit I'm starting to worry because a couple of hits of anything that isn't normal field monsters caves my head in.
    Is that normal or should I not be building my guy as a buffer support after all? I thought I'd be naturally tankier on this class and I want to make sure I'm not dead weight whenever I start doing dungeons and stuff.

    GW2 combat isn't very intuitive. If you want good open world builds, look up Lord Hizen for your profession.
    >>
    >>585164804
    leveling is a little awkward and you often aren't getting gear replaced often enough, so check your gear first

    i suggest looking up a good 'core warrior' build first while you're leveling, then once you hit 80 and start to unlock elite specs, you can pick a playstyle you like the most

    warrior actually fucks hard at 80, i love bladesworn and paragon a lot

    It's probably just your gear and a combination of some core enemies just being weirdly overtuned at times, Warrior is based at 80 and especially so with elite specs

    You need to fight him to make him let you into Vasburg Armory for a point of interest and a lantern, but he's bugged to not fight if someone nukes him past 50% hp too hard at any point in the instance apparently. I don't know how nobody has fixed that in 4.5 years but it's absolutely insane for it to still be in the game. Apparently you're supposed to be able to hit some invisible trigger with your weapon to glitch it open again, so maybe an axe could do that, but otherwise you just have to wait around forever hoping for a new instance to open

    I decided to get back into this game and I have the strangest technical issue right after installing (not installed on this system previously) that I can't find anyone else having but maybe my search-fu is just weak
    everything works fine except I get a mostly black screen on character select (anything that is 3d graphics is missing, UI is fine) and no audio for the first 10-15 minutes the game is running
    after that audio just appears and if I go to character select after that it shows up fine
    but the graphics in-game are fine and the game runs fine, everything works except the audio and character selection
    the game also always hangs up and crashes when trying to close it via any means
    tried all the usual shit like running as admin, newer/older drivers etc and nothing

    aside from just game files being corrupted the only real thing i can think of that would hit both audio and graphics is maybe directx system files being absolutely destroyed or some serious hardware problems.

    I downloaded some legacy dx pack+reinstalled dx11, repaired the game, nothing, completely re-installed the game and used the -image command since apparently that helped some people
    hardware should be fine, no issues with any other game or software
    even checked my windows installation's state and it was fine also on top of that checked all video/audio drivers
    still the exact same issue persists except that after the audio starts working, the game no longer hangs and crashes on exit and I feel like that's just more confusing

    >>585250828
    well "Temp" files shouldn't be touched by gameplay, thats installer shit. I havent used really real windows in a very long time so I am out of ideas though.
    >>
    >>585228732
    Look what kind of audio drivers you have installed
    Nvidia, Realtek, WWise anything. They often can conflict between each other, trying to assume direct control. Force everything to use specific one, uninstall specific ones. Restarting pc is useful to fully remove
    See if you have HDMI or DisplayPort cable to your monitor. Sometimes nvidya hdmi audio drivers can wrestle their way in, use Display Port if possible. Try to plug monitor cable into motherboard directly if you have an extra port, instead of vidya, see if the game reacts to that.
    Launch windows in safe+vidya card mode and try the game.
    Manually turn off all alternative unused Sound Devices through windows. Like audio going through your monitor or PS4 controller or somewhere else.

    Why do you have such a hateboner for a 22 year old game you've never played before? Is this just a schizo deflection tactic because /gw2g/ has to page12 post themselves to stay alive on /vg/?

    not really because you need the mats from metas

    Fair, it was raw panic estimation. An eye twitching rise in price from start of the year for work and some materials. Recalculating rn it's 60K, with cheaper everything. To be fair, the flat is rather huge, 1100 square feet, building from almost ground up. I got lucky with connections, punching above my weight to acquire it. Still, going in debt yet again, so tiresome.

    maximum level, story, blah blah, but what do you actually do past that point? play for achievements, collectibles? i just play the new maps and then i dont really do anything... eso has exactly the same problem. are "horizontal" mmos fundamentally flawed? everything feels the same and you don't get stronger, not in a truly meaningful way at least.

    >everything feels the same and you don't get stronger, not in a truly meaningful way at least.
    That's the same for vertical progression MMOs, since the new trash mob enemies get stronger, too. Only distinction is that you have an immediate goal of "reach new level cap" before you're once again max level.
    >>
    >>585480737
    You unlock cool & useful masteries, then start working on legendary you want, by doing what it needs for collection and your fav content anywhere, for gold. And whatever else, because it is fun. If getting "stronger" in RPG sense is the only thing you find fun, than this game probably will become stale very fast.
    For me getting good with all classes, trying all specs and doing content with them, was the most fun thing. So both legendary grind and leveling alts felt as rewarding progress.

    horizontal mmos like gw2 dont have enough vertical, you just hit max after a week and then fuck around forever

    Runescape is probably my favorite vertical progression MMO but the last time I played it was in 2008 so I don't know if it ever went full retard. All I remember is even when I was at level 120 (partially thanks to summoning) that I felt powerful but not totally unkillable in content that was dozens of levels beneath me.

    The grind in RS is long enough and the combat was structured in such a way that a lot of content stayed relevant for a long time, same with their non-combat skills. A lot of MMOs don't know how to keep content relevant when they have vertical progression. I wouldn't mind another MMO where it takes literal years to hit max level and be able to equip high level gear as long as the progression is properly paced and there's stuff to do other than just kill shit.
    >>
    >>585539091
    Runescape (true old RS and OSRS) is effectively a single-player game with optional multiplayer, so it's not really the scale of the grind that makes it work but the fact that you don't need other players doing the content with you for it to be relevant. It's always relevant because you can always do it by yourself.

    Installing a patched php is like one cli, assuming it isn't automatic which it probably is.
    There's likely two real reasons why it is still down. Either they have extremely rigorous testing processes, or they were running an older version of php and all their fun wiki modules like event timers and trading post api calls are just broken on the new php versions due to removed/depreciated functions.
    That said, the vulnerability patch has been backported to basically every php version since 5.0 by other vendors, so they could really use their same version if they really wanted to.

    Reading about them, it seems like they have a lot of buttons to keep them swift. That Hizen guy that was mentioned earlier seems to have a straight forward build, too. It looks like the spear thing does respectable damage, maybe? I have no comparison for open world damage. I think not dying is better, but events are timed, I guess.

    >>585640141
    Oh, that's a nice relic. Soto seems to have made a lot of cool items. Can't hurt to have in the bag and switch as needed, but the relic slot feels like it's super defining and """just""" swiftness feels like it's not as much as a damage increase, healing increase, or something tangible. I also don't know if like, using a relic slot instead of a trait for more quickness is better.
    >>
    >>585644162
    idk, i love scrapper and it's fun shitting combos every second but it's extremely high effort and not the most rewarding. superspeed boosting escorts is kind of unique though.

    also relic slots can either capstone your build whole gimmick and make it complete OR maybe just stack ~5% heals or dps or something on top of everything. in most cases swapping out relic wont be a big deal.

    Probably the most effortless infinite group Swiftness build I can think of is Deadeye, just mark and kill shit
    Second most effortless is probably warhorn Warrior, the only downtime is the cast time, but also you're carrying warhorn
    Guard also does a pretty good job between Advance shout and Symbol of Swiftness on staff, but again you're using staff
    Most practical is probably Scrapper, Wells provide a good source of Superspeed, and you also get several lightning fields to blast for Swiftness, both Swiftness and Superspeed can be traited for damage boosts, and the same build grants group Might and Quickness

    >Glint stance sounds really strong
    It's the only example of a spec that is appropriately rewarding for how easy it is to play. You shit out boons with no effort (or a little effort if you add quickness) but do low damage.
    >>
    >>585649721
    Yeah, if you're not familiar with Thief, I guess using it would be kinda awkward. But Thief with all its teleports has probably the best map movement in the game, Daredevil is arguably the best iteration of that, with a more mobile dodge and even easier Swiftness access, and Deadeye absolutely cleans up trash mobs with a Steal skill that not only damages up to 3 times on use but refreshes on kill. Steal in particular can be trained to grant Swiftness (and Might/Fury/Vigor/Quickness) which is why I suggest it. Lots of kills while provide infinite uptime on all of that.

    But for escorting story NPCs, Superspeed is much more important than Swiftness because so many NPCs move much slower than max speed, so 2X speed will make a much bigger difference than +33% speed. Just spamming Superspeed is just a matter of spamming your gyros, and killing shit in the same build isn't much harder. The Metabattle page insist that mines are mandatory, but I like to swap it out for Flamethrower as a relatively low-intensity variant. The important thing is to combo Hammer 3 and Shredder Gyro through Blast Gyro.

    Herald is literally autopilot for Swiftness alone, you'll never run out of Energy unless you put on more Facets, and if they're on when you mount, they'll reapply when you dismount. The same build can automatically apply Might/Fury/ or Regen/Protection as well as Quickness, but at that point you start having to hold back to avoid draining your Energy too soon. There's also exactly one instance of Superspeed so you're still hamstrung compared to Herald.

    Necro has a signet that gives a +25% speed boost, and Shroud can be trained to grant Swiftness. For Reaper, you can just jump into Shroud, use 2, then jump back out. But it has no Superspeed whatsoever, and I don't believe it gives group Swiftness. BUT, Reaper is among the best if not THE best solo builds in the game.

    Keep in mind that some NPCs can't be buffed, I believe it's the ones that don't fight, so in a few cases you might be screwed regardless.

    And of course, too much planning will take more time than it'll save, so you get to a point where you're better off just playing whatever way than figuring out the 'right' way to play. We might be nearing that point.

    >>585713137

    But I suspect it's the other "better" direction from what you enjoy. So for your specific tastes it won't improve, I suggest dropping the game for good.

    >>585692750
    Yeah. I'm sure there's some midpoint between the ultra convenience of the scrapper and the incredible power of the reaper that I'm specifically looking for.

    The insane and popular solo guy Hizen, uses amalgam the most, but he has builds for every elite spec except virtuoso. If you don't want to join his discord (fair), I can get the build and anything else for a spec of your choice.

    That's fair and about where I was like a year ago. Even if you're not going for "solo a raid", Hizen builds work great, even if it's just a starting point you tweak later for one reason or another.

    What design space? They make you grind gear so you can play harder dungeons so you can grind gear so you can play harder dungeons. The gear doesn't meaningful change gameplay or the encounters.

    high population +- 4 hours around reset, moderate-low population the rest of the time. Probably depends on exactly which meta though. Some get done 100% of the time, others struggle for a run a week.

    it should
    im not saying the "grind" as currently designed in those games is conducive to that, but that the existence of gear that is not interchangeable is a huge avenue for design, and that the failure of developers to utilize it in this way is a developer that fails to consider the game as a holistic thing instead of merely a fugue state for 50 hours and eventually you wake up to endgame activities
    basically gear should be more than a bunch of stats and its annoying to see anet think theyve solved the problem by functionally deleting gear

    I just want the ragnarok online experience where I'm just a random guy being spawned into the world and I can go anywhere I want, kill whatever I feel like and from that I can get exp and money
    Is that possible here for real? Like the main quest is not required to unlock anything?
    I understand the later classes are unlocked through a separate questline? That'd be fine

    My goal is to mostly explore the world, grind up to max level by just killing mobs and then do PvP
    >>
    >>585807170
    Sorta true. I leveled from 1 to 80 without ever doing any story quests, but there will be some things locked behind doing a certain amount of story. Like, to get the flying mount skyscale, you'll need to do 30ish minutes of story quests? Then it's a lot of open world grinding and doing shit. And the story is pick and choose. You don't have to do the first expansion first. You could jump straight to like, End of Dragons if you wanted to do 10 minutes of a story quest to unlock a new map, fishing, your boat, and shit. So not completely story free, but very story minimal. Especially during leveling.

    Nice nice, that's good to hear because I dont mind unlock quests if they're reasonable
    I tried doing the same thing in BDO and eventually I had to go back and do ALL the quests to unlock some important stats and that took literally a week of questing several hours per day
    >>
    >>585807170
    You can get the RO experience in the core maps, meaning you can just walk to any area and the level scaling is only downwards, so you can walk to high level areas and get assraped by random mobs.
    You can also find events and world bosses that require group effort rather than being like RO MVPs where people aim to solo them to have a chance at the loot.
    Some stuff is level locked, such as dungeons, but doesn't require story progression so you can just level up in the open world until you can unlock the dungeons.
    Reaching lvl80 unlocks a lot of content if you have the expansions and living world seasons. Some maps require story steps to unlock, but it's all lvl80 stuff and you will probably be tired of open world exploration at that point.
    >>
    >>585807170
    I also add that for PVP you don't need to level up anything. PVP is fully instanced and gear locked, and everyone is scaled to lvl80. You can start doing PVP at lvl1 it doesn't matter.
    Large scale PVP called WVW is another thing and you need to grind good level and good gear for that.
    >>
    >>585809212
    Wait really I can pvp at low level?
    What about those classes that you unlock way later? Like chronomancer
    >>
    >>585807170
    It's only the expansion quests that have important stuff locked behind them like mounts and other abilities. Classes aren't locked behind quests either, you can just gather points from different challenges scattered around the world and unlock them that way as long as you have the required expansion.
    >>
    >>585809298
    You need the expansions for the elite classes, and in order to fully unlock their traits you just need hero points that come from world exploration, or I believe there are merchants exchanging pvp currency for hero points, at least for wvw there are.
    >>
    >>585809960
    Yeah I mean if I was to go into that gear locked pvp at like lvl 10 or something that scales me to 80 I'd probably get mogged by people having the elite classes right?
    >>
    looks good
    >>
    >>585809298
    If you own the expansion that unlocks an elite spec, it's just automatically fully unlocked in PvP, even if you're level 1 and have never played the game before.
    >>
    >>585810161
    If you entered pvp at level 10, your biggest problem is going to be general knowledge and gameplay skill. The elite specs are good, but they aren't creating a massive gap in power. Hell, I'd go so far as to say that some core classes (necro and thief) are probably better than one of their elite counterparts (Scourge and Specter).

    if you want the absolute maximum then run the 3 convergences everyday since you can get essence from the heroes choice chests. If you want to min-max essence per hours spent then only do the 3 convergences 3 times per week.

    i still wish they would delete the blatant scam items though because i feel really bad at the thought of some kid or "disadvantaged" person buying them because of janet insisting theyre a good deal....
    they are also missing lots of obvious ways to monetize like engineer mech skins, im tired of seeing those neon green blobs

    i use my asuras only for jumping puzzle parking. it's funny to see their dumb little faces when i log in, only to open a chest and log back out. i suggest everyone else do the same. this way, they stay the fuck out of view and still get use every day. haha little rat slaves!

    Yeah. I wanna try healing fractals, but I haven't even hit 150 ar on my dps set yet. I genuinely can't wait to have a full set of armor and accessories. My enjoyment of the game will shoot up two or threefold.

    >>
    >>585863307
    i think you can pick up a lot of that stuff in bundles that make them worth it. i think most of my shared storage came from character slot bundles? so obviously thats worth it. only really need enough shared slots for your important shared shit like teleports and salvage kits and shit maybe
    >>
    >>585863307
    >more crafting professions
    Absolutely not. Noob trap scam. Just use alts or change your professions with no loss of progress.
    >mat storage
    yes
    >bank storage
    Character slots are more efficient but more of a pain in the ass
    >character slots
    Obviously.
    >shared inventory slots
    Yes, but the ones you get from expansions are good enough for the big ticket items.
    >salvagers
    Copper-fed and runecrafter's, in that order. Silver-fed is unnecessary unless you run out of mystic forge stones to make mystic salvage kits.
    >lounge pass
    Honestly do not regret this. Huge convenience.
    >recharging tp to friend
    I've found a lot of use for it now that I play on multiple characters that don't have much map completion, but low priority.

    I think that covers all of the actually good stuff but I might have forgotten something.

    There's a spot where you can get 2 every day near to the map portal that connects echovald forest to dragons end, up in the tree above the waypoint and down in a cave under the tree at the bottom. I'm sure there's another jade runestone spot near there but I'm too lazy to look it up.

    i put this off for so long but i use more than basically anything else aside from salvage kits. but if you really are a cheap ass, the pvp area acts the same way, port in, do whatever, and port back out to whereever you were

    >recharging tp to friend
    this is very useful if you're rushing to get to a meta or something quickly

    agree with everything else too. Silver fed salvage is a meme
    >>
    >>585876659
    you can get 4+ every day in under 5 mins in echovald. They are close by that portal, very easy to get. Also the NKC jp is a guaranteed one

    You don't. A wiki is the best way to present the amount of information that's useful to you in this game, so there isn't really a better option for giving you that information, and the only other way to make it less important would be to simplify the game to the point where there's no benefit in even having that kind of knowledge, which would be bad for hopefully-obvious reasons.

    The wiki being down for a week sucks, but that happening basically once in 20 years isn't a reason to change things.

    A more informative UI would help a lot. Navigating cascading achievements is a nightmare for example.
    But big problem for GW2 is enormous technical debt, it's impossible to slightly change such a rigid old thing. Unless Anet are super cooking a rewrite for the maintenance update in secret, there is little that could be done. Lets hope they will have a foresight for GW3 UI/UX structure.
    Probably not, since it's on console. UI will be simplified and minimal as fuck, with even more emphasis on having GW3wiki open on phones 24/7.
    Also yeah, it wouldn't hurt to have a comment section for each page on a wiki, so people can write mini guides that are easily visible. But it's a wiki, no easy commenting.

    No, but I'm sure I can direct you to a Dragon Age thread if you need help.
    >>
    >>586185778
    Not my point. DA: Inquisition had a good concept of a melee mage that was fairly broken. Magic sword wasn't the best weapon for damage alone, but it doubled the number of projectiles you cast when you use a specific spell while enchanted with a second element.

    Melee mages put a spin on the tropes that is far more appealing than the stale trope of general casters.

    Depends. There is a permanent hair stylist item you can buy off the TP, and then there are the normal hair stylist items and total makeover kits you can get for gems.

    >is it easy to get stuff to change your character's hair and/or face later
    not really, they want you to buy the scam makeover kits for gems that have exclusive hair and faces not present at character creation
    probably over a hundred gold a pop right now if you convert gold to gems

    you can buy a permanent hairstylist contract (basically the barbershop function in literally any other mmo that costs little to nothing) for like 4000 gold (a lot) or from like a 0.1% chance drop in the scam lootboxes

    there is a free makeover kit after like 5k achievement points but i would recommend just getting your look just right before you invest time on the character. the lighting in character creation differs from profession to profession and you might accidentally make yourself look really weird without even knowing

    alternatively, run to the capital city asap to the aesthetician and see the exclusive faces for yourself in case you want to set a goal for that look.
    most of them are makeup'd, neon hair and eye colors, and some decent hairstyles but on principle i dont use my kit because mmo barbershops should be free

    Spooky salutations gw2g! It’s that time of year again. Sorry for the short notice but I’ll be in Lion’s Arch tomorrow on NA servers about an hour or so after reset, having out candy to trick or treaters. I’ll post here when I’m about to go live. Come by and get some!

    Are you included in the candy bag, because I want to just gobble you up

    Don't forget all the alt color tints and post effects unique to each zone. Neural lighting is so rare in this game, you will always get bizarre variation. And armor will get extra spicy because of the different materials.
    >>
    >>586215731
    The large candy bags are account bound, so while I might fit in one, they can't be given away.

    No. But when expansions go on sale you can buy a deluxe upgrade and get basically a free makeover kit with the a character slot it gives you. I have a few in my bank from that and maybe some other events but its rare.
