Alteisen posted:Oh don't give me that in this genre bullshit, soul bound was a dumb loving mechanic given the game's cosmetics, and I was fond of them, but I couldn't use them at all, PERIOD, why keep poo poo I can only look at. This was months ago, well before this stuff was even a twinkle in Anet's collective eye. So much wrong with this post, but I'll just say you leaving is probably the best thing for everyone. Have fun complaining about whatever game you move on to next!

It's good that this patch has brought so many goons back to the game. Unfortunately it also seems to have brought back some lovely attitudes that would be right at home on the official forums. "zones are full, meh, events still aren't worth doing" "game is only focused on pvp, so much for play how you want" "new trait system is hosed and too complicated, gj anet" "what about all the skins I already salvaged/deleted??????" My favorite so far though is that Anet releases the most extensive quality of life patch since release, containing features that the players specifically asked for, and somebody ragequits.

The most broken thing about gw2 is the lovely, entitled players who want everything their way and if anet doesn't meet their demands then "ITS THE STUPIDEST THING EVER AND gently caress IT I'M UNINSTALLING BUT I'LL CHECK IN PERIODICALLY."

Heavy Lobster posted:I felt like it's less a complaint about temporary content and more the fact that the living story isn't really doing what it set out to do/what Anet is trying to make it do. I get the philosophy of temp content as a way of keeping people playing consistently as well as progressing the events of the world, but it's more that the "living" part of the story isn't there - regardless of content being temporary, it almost never leaves any sort of impact, which is less of a content-left-over thing and more of an any-way-of-telling-what's-happened thing. For players returning after this arc and LS being reconstructed, one of the biggest potential gamechangers is just going to be rendered moot because ??. Having a central city is good, but it doesn't have to be Lion's Arch, and the fact that it is LA again feels kinda forced. I really don't understand your complaint. It's unlikely that LA is just going to pop up again one day, exactly the same as it was before being destroyed. As for returning players missing out on the impact, rewards, whatever - I'm 100% okay with the content being designed primarily for the people playing the game NOW and not the "players returning after X."

They seriously expect me to pay money into a gold sink to start up Boss Blitz so I can fight several legendary 1-hit kill bosses with 80 billion hp in a time limit so I can RNG for crappy gear? That didn't take long.

Alteisen posted:Also if you're afraid of going full squish, soldier with zerker weapons/trikens or knight's with zerker weapons/trinkets will help with that and still give you decent DPS. There's really no good reason not to go full Berserker or Assassin in PvE.

Alteisen posted:You can do all PvE content in cleric greens. The only reason you would do PvE content in cleric greens is because "LOL I'm doing PvE in cleric greens." I don't know why you'd purposefully gimp yourself or advise someone else to do it. Avoiding berserkers/assassins because you're afraid of getting downed is counter-intuitive. The main damage mitigation technique in this game is dodging, second to that is bursting enemies down before they can be a real threat. Knights/Soldiers/Clerics doesn't help with either of those. I'm not saying it's good design or that you can't use different stat sets, I'm just saying that if you're looking for advice on how to be the most helpful to a group (and to yourself) in PvE then berserker or assassin is the way to go. It's one of the reasons why I love PvP/small-scale WvW so much, because other stats/builds actually matter.

LITERALLY A BIRD posted:I'd recommend rolling a class that appeals to you, heading into the Heart of the Mists, and fooling around with skills and traits there. It can give you an idea of playstyle at level 80, and sometimes you'll be surprised by which classes click for you. This is the best answer to "what class should I play?" Plus, a few days in PvP will teach you more about your class than months in PvE and I really believe a big part of "having fun" is knowing how to play your class. I see people make complaints about their class that are just blatantly wrong. central fucked around with this message at 06:41 on May 29, 2014 |

I'm having a hard time thinking of any dungeon encounter that requires a ranged weapon. I know there's a few but they're so rare that Alteisen is right, just keep a ranged weapon in your bag, not on a weapon slot.

I keep making the mistake of reading the official forums. Holy poo poo that place is a cesspool. The amount of teenage angst and hatred aimed at the devs is insane. I almost want one of them to snap one day and reply with a "gently caress you all" post. Anet: "Hey guys due to the bug with some people not receiving their WvW reward chest we're going to hold off on releasing the vendor until everything is fixed." psychokillah.1723: "WOW wowowwowoow so I get screwed becuz sum1 else is broken???? U better compensate for extra wait time or I'm out. LOL GG anet"

Alteisen posted:For the love of gently caress Anet, maybe you should try to see why people do what they do in terms of stacking and exploiting before you start "fixing" things. Uh that's exactly what they did... People stacked because it broke one of the boss' mechanics.

Alteisen posted:Because the poison ticks at a retarded rate and she has no cooldown on it, if she wants to fill the entire room up with poison, she can and will. It's not a difficult encounter. It might take longer than 10 seconds now, but it doesn't warrant a "for the love of gently caress, Anet." If you need advice on ranger in dungeons, get with hobb because he has it down to a science.

CLAM DOWN posted:Bullshit, you're playing with the wrong people. I hate to think how many times I've done AC, especially path 1. But last night with my lovely friend dentists? We were howling with laughter on mumble and having a goddamn boatload of fun, and our tactics as you can see from the video were all over the place. Saying that everything gets boring is totally wrong. Are you just not willing to believe that people find speedclearing fun? Nobody is disputing that you had a great time doing AC "the right way."

King Lazer posted:I don't think it makes sense to consider "not stacking" to be some singular thing the way stacking is. There's a tremendous amount of potential for variation and no need for things to become repetitive. To me, the appeal of not stacking is that it makes it seem like stuff is happening. It's more like "fastest" vs everything else. The problem is everyone is arguing from their own perspective as if that's the only answer. If I have fun clearing AC 1-3 in less than an hour and Arus has fun taking his time and having coordinated snack breaks every 5 minutes then neither of us is wrong. One way isn't better or more right than the other.

Alteisen posted:Hey Turncout and fellow e-sporters of SFD and GOON. My advice: be patient and stick with it, eventually you'll get the hang of your build. You're going to be terrible the first dozen games or so. Just move on and queue up again. Don't blame lag, overpowered builds or lovely teammates and please don't post about it. Also, hot join is not an accurate representation of pvp so after a few matches, start doing solo arena.

Heavy Lobster posted:Yes, this is exactly what I was saying but more succinct. Thank you for reading my post which was definitely not about a wide variety of activities in the game being a draw despite grind so others didn't have to! My take on WoW which was in no way critical of the time investment involved to get to these activities will be immortalized forever through you. Crikey! We seem to have stumbled upon two wild goons engaged in their traditional form of passive-aggressive combat! Watch closely as these two creatures dance around each other, striking out viciously with sarcasm and irony. The last one to roll their eyes will be forced to admit defeat!
