Hey dude, are you still involved in the trading post stuff?

My character just got disconnected after taking down a bunch of buy orders and now my character is about 100G short.

Anyone else reading this, I'd suggest avoiding using the TP at the moment. Hopefully this will resolve itself but it'd suck to lose something significant to this issue.

*edit* I reconnected and the gold was back in the trading post for collection, phew. I'd still advise against using the TP for a little bit though just in case.

How many chances did you open before getting it? I've been farming gauntlet in between boss blitz rounds and I have about 500 chances I've held off on opening in case they changed the drop rate.

While hoping the new items from the Deluxe upgrade are retroactive is probably foolish, the Bobblehead Laboratory more than makes up for it. Especially if it stays in combat.

They fixed it so that you can hear other player guardians' shouts now, that's really neat. I thought for some reason they didn't want you to hear the shouts, I had no idea why. I just killed the high wizard guy in cursed shore and a charr told me STAND YOUR GROUND :3:

Bitches love my tool time
Here's some undocumented changed they made to dungeons(I guess? reddit link here so they may be dumb):

AC
Spider Queen now shoots poison fields in melee range.
P2: Champion Graveling Breeder can no longer be damaged by the spike traps. It has to be damaged directly.
CM
P2: Players can no longer damage mobs through walls.
TA
UP: Malrona's projectiles can no longer be reflected. Untraited warden will still absorb it. (I assume the same goes for the spiders in Arah P1 and P3 but haven't tested yet)
SE
P1: Can't pull Tazza separately from Kaeyi anymore.
P3: General Molradovich's Breath of Flame attack (fire rings) can no longer be removed with a condition cleanse skill.
P3: Clown Car now faces opposite direction, so the mobs spawn closer to you. This change changes nothing for PUG tactics; if the group party takes a step back in the PUG spot to break LOS, the mobs will run up the ramp as usual.
P3: The 2 Dredge Champs after the Clown Car are no longer stationary.
CoE
Mark T-B34RC3 (Turret Golem boss) is no longer stationary.
FotM
Molten Boss: Shockwave skipper achievement is fixed and rewarded after completion of the fractal molten duo. (If you dodge all waves)


Basically nothing too crazy, although not being able to reflect projectiles on the TA spider boss makes me kind of sad.

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.

That's why people stacked, just lowering the frequency of the poison pools was enough of a fix or make the old pools vanish when she shits out new ones.

Her poison ticks also downs pets incredibly fast thus rendering that class gimmick pointless yet again, but what else is new.

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.

Yeah I am not seeing the big deal. I've not failed on spider boss in like a year? I've died or others have died but we always still kill it. Like Cletus said we always fight it normal anyways because boss tricks are usually dumb, take longer, and are about 0 fun.

That's all.

Look at any dungeon we run with any regularity, look at the sheer amount of things we skip, because they're lovely and annoying to deal with. That to me is bad design, as a developer I would try to discover first why exploit/skip/glitch past stuff before fixing it.

It's not that insane, and it's not that excessive. We've taken SFD newbies through it many times and I can't remember the last time we wiped or failed that fight. Maybe one night when we were all drunk and trying to hug the spider instead of fight. If you had learned the encounter or gotten better at removing and avoiding conditions instead of exploiting, this probably wouldn't be an issue.

If you're interested in learning it, I'll run this tonight and bring you and help you so you can see how trivial it really is.
