Belcher's Bluff still broken - 1 year later

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 01:26 PM PST

I get that this may not be on Anet's high priority fix list, but I mean it's been at least a year since Belcher's Bluff has been known to be broken; it could've been even longer considering no one probably reported it.

[DnT] Dhuum Speed Kill Record - 5:21

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 03:40 AM PST

Hey all, after [eS] posted a really sick Dhuum record a while back we have been casually working on doing a fast time of our own. Once we got about the same time as their kill we started looking at ways to improve the kill time even further. Normally I don't post our stuff to reddit but there is enough interesting stuff that I felt it was cool enough to share.

As far as builds go, the Arcane weavers are pretty standard by this point. However, in order to push their DPS as far as possible, we decided to run both Chronos using Chaos Magic. This pushed the average boon count on the Eles really high and massively boosted them.

Next we went with a Harrier druid kiter. We experimented with Condi and Berserker druid, but what we found was that the DPS difference during the main phase, 100-10%, was very little like 1-2k at most and made our runs quite a bit sketchier. Additionally, we have the harrier druid pick up conjures in the final 10% ritual and Harrier druid will outdps a viper druid when wielding a Lightning Hammer.

Lastly and most noticeably the banner Spellbreaker. Spellbreaker DPS isn't fantastic here, a few thousand below Berserker. However, this is more than made up for my Winds of Disenchantment. WoD isn't used for the boon strip, its used for Boon prevention. If you pre-cast it before soul split, Dhuum will not gain any boons. Normally using Chronos to remove boons there will be at least some amount of time where Dhuum has protection, regen, and retaliation which means your Weavers have bad DPS. With WoD the team can go full blast dps. Having the bubble essentially lets you push about 5% boss HP deeper than if you didn't have it.

Lastly, a big DPS gain from us was tanking Dhuum right at his throne at the start as opposed to fighting him on the wall as is the meta strat, and then tanking him center after the puddle. Our Kiter used Celestial Shadow to stealth the Reapers in order to get the Enforcer to walk towards the throne and be cleaved down instead of hanging out by the wall. Doing this allowed us to get an extra 5 seconds of solid DPS in. Lastly, we tank him in the middle after the first soul puddle. Not only is this closer to the throne than anywhere else, it means when he does soul suck, all the lingering AOE's placed down by our Weavers will be there continuing to deal DPS which combos well with the WoD.

Anyway, I'm sure others will improve upon this kill but hopefully this was innovative enough to be interesting to you.

Would anyone like to see Mount Skins tied to raid drops?

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 04:03 AM PST

Seeing cool mount skins in WoW is like "Oh cool you did X raid or had X drop, really cool." Seeing cool mount skins in Gw2 is like "congrats on paying for my subscription." I understand the dilemma of "Anet making money" vs "in game rewards" but would anyone like to see mount skins obtainable outside the gemstore, like raid drops?

If you ever wondered who would win the fight, Twitchy Jake or Big Nose Ted

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 07:58 AM PST

Just ran into a funny bug while doing my weekly key farm, Big Nose Ted did not turn into a hostile NPC and instead started to fight Twitchy Jake. In the end he could kill Twitchy Jake with 30% HP remaining ( took like 5-10 minutes)

Opening close to 50 stacks of unID gear with around 620% Magic Find (+ best precursor drop)

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 10:55 AM PST

Reached a point where if I kept hoarding stacks I would never find the motivation to open them, so decided to do it today. Also it's the first time I do a post like this, so if something is missing or wrong please let me know.

  • Was too lazy to get higher MF and around 600% seemed more realistic
  • ~29 stacks of Blue, ~16 Green, ~4 Yellow
  • Dropped the amazing Rage precursor :/
  • All blue, green and yellow gear was salvaged with Copper-fed salvage kit
  • No video, only pics

Screenshot of stacks waiting in guild bank. TP sell value at the time after taxes ~ 640g


Results of opening and salvaging everything except exotics, and their TP sell value after taxes :


Profit of ~212g, or ~33% ROI if the unID gear was bought instead of hoarded through gameplay.

[POOF] Community Event: Central Tyria Map Completion Train [NA] Brand New Players Encouraged to Join!

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 01:36 PM PST

Hey Reddit!

In the spirit of the current campaign and new adventurers joining us in Tyria, I'm setting up a weekly event map completion train where we will take a map a night and get full completion, along with showing and teaching jumping puzzles in that zone and creating a fun environment that really shows off how amazing this game is at bringing people together.

Absolutely everyone is welcome but I encourage you to invite new friends that are on the fence about the game, and are even on the free trial. I'm trying to build an event where people can come together and find the love and wonder that exploring Tyria brought me all those years ago.

This will not be a blitz of a completion (akin to our hero point trains through HoT) as we will take time to make sure everyone makes progress. The focus is on welcoming the new players in our midst and showing them the world of Tyria. (And getting map completion for those not motivated to take the task onto themselves!)

How to join??

I've set up a community events discord where I will be posting announcements of the upcoming time/date/map of the next event, and where we will be in voip during the map running!

https://discord.gg/TuDYPwN

The upcoming event will be

Queensdale: 2/23/18 at 8:30 PM PST

Contact is: Alennia.1904 Character name Chancellor Poof, or just ping me in that discord!

May we get a new raid lfg (with next raid)?

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 05:14 PM PST

I really hate the lfg right now. To many wings in same lfg, I mean we have one for every story map why not for every wing?

See, i don't know anyone who uses the looking for squad option, and it would be amazing ,when i'm looking for a xera group i just have to look up the w3 lfg and not the actually one with 3k selling groups and all the other bosses around.

For selling/fullclears/questions we could use one tool, and one for every wing.

That would be nice (imo)! Sorry of it was already mentioned.

The true fashion wars 2 endgame? (Share your decorated guild hall pics)

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 06:50 PM PST

Everyone's fashioning, either roleplaying, attempting realistic outfits or most of all becoming as shiny, glittery, particley and sometimes as obnoxious as they can. In GW2 it is truly an endgame goal. We've all seen the flavour of the month years. Fashion wars 2 brings to mind our eyes bombarded with the countless chaos gloves, scarves, sunrises, winged leggings, embroidered pants and T3 human armor of all armor types.

 

Once we have completed our various character's fashions. What more fashion could one do? This personally brought to mind: Has anyone decorated guild halls to such extents? Probably, although it seems that pictures are few and far in between.

 

With the new Windswept Havens, what have you and your guild done? Or have you remained in the halls of gold for some renovations? Would love to see the amazing creations that the community have created.

 

TL;DR Have not "fashion warsed" a guild hall before. Thought it'd be awesome aside from the jumping puzzles which everyone has. Never decorated one myself, but am thinking of. Show me pics of your guild hall! Edit* Formatting.

So...how do I actually farm the silverwastes?

Posted: 19 Feb 2018 08:39 AM PST

or more specific, should I open the bags with a 53 character? Is this still more profitable?
Thanks in advance!
