Why are there no "Retry from 'X' for Achievement Motes" in the new LS story steps?

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 01:05 PM PST

Title says it all...there is in particular an achievement in The First City story step that needs to be accomplished at the very end of the step...it is beyond ridiculous to not have a retry mote as existed in other LS story steps with this requirement

Giant Red Lasers?

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 12:21 PM PST

Do we ever find out why or how some Awakened can summon these massive red laser beams from somewhere up in the sky? Are they at all related to Volatile Magic? Or are they just a piece of red hot Joko love?

QoL Reminder for Anet - Revenant and mounts

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 01:29 AM PST

Hey fellow commanders

I just wanted to mention again, that Revenant still can't regen energy while mounted. Means, if you just had a fight with some mobs and left it with like 10% energy and immediatly mount, you'll have only 10% energy when dismounting (for example into an other skirmish).

Please make energy regen while mounted or always release us with 50% when dismounting. This is super annoying and you already showed us, you can improve stuff like this. Soulbeast is the prime example.

Don't forget us poor revenant mains, it's just a little thing, but means a lot to us.

Thanks in advance!

Make changing 'Infusion' attributes simple!

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 07:57 AM PST

Anet finally did it. They added '+5 Concentration' and '+5 Expertise' Infusions, 2 years after 'HoT' release ('+5 Ferocity' Infusions are still not available though)! It offers min-maxing and diversity for a lot of builds in both pve and wvw, but the current system to swap infusion attributes in the mystic forge is a complete mess.

Currently it's overly convoluted and expensive (25x T6 materials + 2x Fractal Matrices) to swap a single infusion's attributes in the mystic forge. For a full set of 18 '+5 +9 Agony Infusions' (20 if two slots on second weapon set + even more with other weapon and armor sets), 450 't6 Materials' and 36 'Integrated Fractal Matrices' are necessary to 'only' swap the attribute of your infusions. '+5 +9 Agony Infusions' are already pretty expensive to craft. By the love of dhuum and ben senpai; give us a merchant or a simpler way to swap infusion attributes, without wasting time and materials in the mystic forge.

Suggestion:

  • Add a new merchant (called 'Moorbazan') ( ͡° ͜Ê– ͡°) that gives us a unique token or something similiar, depending on the infusion, so we can choose another attribute infusion

Problems right now:

  • Some infusions not showing up in the mystic forge (Example: 'Ghostly Infusion' mostly in the Mistlock Sanctuary)
  • Also only '+5 +9 Infusions' are swappable, no '+5 +5 Infusions' or '+5 +7 Infusions'

What do you guys think about the current system for infusion attribute swapping? Any other ideas to fix this problem? Is the 'Infusion Extraction Device' up to date? Should we be able to swap infusions on all ascended pieces, instead of legendary only?

The Commander Is Festive

Posted: 06 Dec 2017 11:58 PM PST

We are the best community

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 03:26 PM PST

I know there are tons of posts like this in gw2 reddit already and we have all known that we are a very friendly community as a whole. But please allow me say it again and express my feeling again :D

It just happened tonight, when I was looking for SW meta squad on lfg, a squad maned as " Santa's Christmas party" something like that got my attention. It was in southsun cove. Driven by curiosity I went to this map, luckily found this squad and comm on the beach side. I didn't join at beginning but sneakily observer them from top. The comm was in Santa colour fancy winter outfit whom was playing music for the rest, rest were dancing (in bikini) while chatting with each other.

There were norns, salad and human, they were all from different guilds yet were strangers. It was my first time seeing something like that, the temptation of this tiny pre Christmas party led me join them as well and yes forgot about SW matter.

So we were having fun, dance and chat. The atmosphere was awesome so I got out all of my unused gem store free boxes which has been sitting in my mail box for months. Fireworks, colours, transformations..it added extra flavour to the party, we fought each other under transformation, played jokes and teasing, and had group dancing together with comm markers as neo light, thanks for santa comm the great DJ XD

As time passed by, we had more ppl joining us, although most of the dancers were ladies and human gents (only)were looking at us from distance, enjoying the view XD

It was a good time, though I might lose bit of gold from not doing SW run in this hour, but I think it's good to take a break sometimes :) and enjoy this earlier festival spirit. Meet some random strangers and chat, don't need to be bothered by anything, doing something stupid and just relax. It isn't nice?

Thank you Caijor comm from [XMAS] created a fabulous chance for us, thank you for everyone who was in this party tonight, I had a very good time since so long, I can barely remember when is my last time like that; by focusing on complete my goals(legendaries, skins, gold farming etc), I haven't had much interaction with people for purely "fun" purpose.

Thank you.

p.s here is a screenshot of our fabulous dancers :) : https://imgur.com/a/uSmkf

[SEARCH] - looking for former members of the guild "Anima Immortalis" [AI]

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 04:38 AM PST

Hey fellow people

I came back to GW2 about 3 months ago after a fairly long break. Now I was finally able to remember how the guild was called with which I had so much fun playing with. Sadly I've seen their personal website beeing shut down and I can't find any recent info about the guild anymore.

Are there still some former members of [AI] active in GW2? Where have you guys gone? Please contact me, if anyone of you is reading this.

Ps: Ja ich weiss, dass es eine deutsche Gilde ist. ;p

Gw2 Connection - Western Germany - Ping Spikes

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 10:06 AM PST

Hello, yesterday and today the lag spikes are too great to handle them into pvp/wvw or raid... it just frustating that you cant play the game regular. Yesterday was an thread on reddit fp too, which had talked about this problem. Any light at the end of the tunnel when anet will fix this issue?

To be clear, the problems are only to gw2 servers, to lol, overwatch, csgo, fortnite, discord and ts3 I have an fix ping of ~15. So something runs wrong with the servers, or on the routing.

Minmaxing with expertise and concentration infusions

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 05:47 PM PST

In the most recent patch, Arenanet added infusions that give +5 concentration ("Mystical") and +5 expertise ("Spiteful"). This changes the optimal builds for all chronomancer raid builds and most condi DPS raid builds if you can afford infusions.

(Note: one can change +9 stat infusions in the mystic forge to concentration using leaf fossils or to expertise using barbed thorns.)

I'm using the discretize.eu tool to brute force these calculations, so I don't have builds for Renegade, Daredevil, Engineer, or Necromancer. I also don't have a parsed log for Mirage post-nerf.

Data is from /u/striderfun, /u/dyan2687, and /u/ln_nightmare's benchmarks.

Concentration Infusions

  • For quickness chronomancer, it is always worthwhile to use concentration infusions over power infusions.

  • For boon druid, healing infusions are better than concentration infusions for all builds.

Expertise Infusions

It is not always advantageous to use expertise infusions over condition damage infusions if a build is below the condition duration cap. But the differences between the two are always minute (~50 DPS or less) and easily within run variance, so players need not swap unless they value being best in slot.

  • Warrior

    • 1 expertise infusion and 17 condition damage infusions are stronger on the warrior build.
  • Firebrand has two notable builds. They are very close (probably ±0.5%) in DPS:

    • Condition damage infusions are stronger on the balthazar rune setup. This setup with empty slots filled with a mix of sinister/grieving is optimal; changing the balance between the two is nearly insignificant and small changes in rotation RNG change the optimal balance. This variant is equivalent and uses slightly cheaper food.
    • 3 expertise infusions and 15 condition damage infusions are stronger on the renegade rune setup.
    • 8 expertise infusions and 10 condition damage infusions are stronger on the quickness firebrand setup.
  • Weaver

    • 3 expertise infusions and 15 condition damage infusions are stronger on the condi weaver build.
  • Soulbeast has two notable builds. They are very close (±0.5%) in DPS:

  • Condi Druid is kinda complicated due to LOYF uptime and I don't have math for that.

Why is there variance between builds? On builds with a low condition damage stat, a point of condition damage is relatively strong and can thus outperform a point of expertise, while on builds with higher condition damage, the relative benefit is lower. It just so happens that metabuilds are all close to the breakeven point with buffs, and soulbeast dips below the breakeven point.

Balthazar firebrand is just a slightly strange one, honestly.


Notes: I have not had anyone else in the community verify these builds. Independent research would be greatly appreciated!

Got any tips? Find a mistake I made or a better setup? Mention Marcus in the Metabattle discord and I'll probably see it :)

Thinking about returning

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 05:15 PM PST

So I played the shit out of GW1, and then after GW2 for a couple years. GW2 was probably my favorite MMO Ive played. But I stopped playing cause the guild I was with forever fell apart due to reasons.

Lately Ive been wanting to get back into MMOs and most other games failed to hold my interest. I stopped playing a few months before Heart of Thorns came out and with there now being another expansion after that, I just wanna ask with all that has changed in that time frame, how hard realistically will it be adjusting? I'm mostly curious about classes and builds and if those changed drastically. Any feedback would be appreciated

TL;DR possibly returning, wondering how drastic the game might have changed in time away

Mounts You Want to See Added to Game

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 12:13 PM PST

Daybreak's first instance takes us to a Dolyak ranch (slight spoiler I suppose). I was excited at first thinking we would possibly get a dolyak mount. I love the sleeker Elonian models and would like to see them implemented into the game.

What other mounts would you like to see? I personally want a fern hound skin for the jackal. That would be amazing for my slyvari. Maybe a dragonfly type skin for skimmer would be neat too.

Arcdps not loading sometimes

Posted: 07 Dec 2017 07:06 PM PST

Hello,

I have had arcdps installed for months. I update it after every major patch and have had no issues usually. However, over the last couple weeks I have had issues with it not loading at all on game startup. I've installed the updates, most recently today, but it simply does not start up with my game.

I have the d3d9.dll, d3d9_arcdps_buildtemplates.dll, d3d9_chainload.dll, and ReShade64.dll (GW2Hook renamed) all in my bin64 folder. After reading the Arcdps site I also tried putting the d3d9.dll in the main installation directory. I deleted the arcdps.log from the /addons/arcdps folder to see if it would generate (indicating that it loaded), but it did not.

Any thoughts? The game doesn't crash, it just doesn't load arc (or gw2hook).
