The Place of Scourge in PvP

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 07:39 AM PST

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Scourge. The DPS is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical Guild Wars 2 most of the DPS will go over a typical viewer's head. There's also the Scourges nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal gameplay draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The Scourge Mains understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these plays, to realise that they're not just requiring large amounts of skill, they say something deep about GW2. As a consequence people who dislike Scourges truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the DPS in the Scourges existential catchphrase "i spam aoe's and shit dies all over the place" which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Dan Harmon's genius wit unfolds itself on their television screens. What fools.. how I pity them.

And yes, by the way, i DO have a Scourge tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 ELO points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid

Told my husband friendship submitting was untill 7am tomorrow (Europe) based on USA rules -.-

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 12:32 PM PST

But it's not! Apparently USA and Europe have a different timestamp for the contest to end. And we here had untill this morning. He has been working 14 hours a day for the past 6 weeks and had 0 time to post before. And he wanted my comments. So since we're not eligable to submit am going to post it here. Because he wrote an awesome story about how we met and it's worthy of sharing. (And I'm kinda pissed off about this time submitting bs.)

Here is what he wrote:

Well...Once upon a time, almost 10 years ago, our little u/Efrima got a game as a gift from his cousin. On the cover of this magical onyx box, golden letters spelled "Guild Wars", accompanied by pictures and scrolls about epic quests and deeds.

The first time he stepped into this "world of Guild Wars", seeking adventure, u/Efrima stepped out of the outpost of Ascalon, traveling all around, looking for other heroes to team up with. "Where is everyone?" he asked, not sure when he got into.

Noticing the confusion, his cousin took him under his care and introduced him to an amazing group of heroes and taught him everything he needed to know.

While Mister Cousin's service was valued and appreciated, his soul yearned for other destinations and he belonged elsewhere.

And so it has come to the solitary existance of young Efri in Tyria - many life long friendships were forged during those ancient times and have lead us to many many wonderful years post searing ;)

Sophia, Lucan, Gaia, Arutha, Kenneth, Jerry, Amber, Linda and many other wonderful brave souls have stood their ground in our mighty alliance of old. Songs were sung around campfires. Lands were protected and princess consumed by magical forces. What's more, trye friends were made, a family and destinies were undoubtedly forged.

Countless adventures have been experienced, and mighty guilds fought each other in the mists in search of glory. We saved 3 different continents from certain doom, and have acquired a temporary peace in the north. 250 years into the future, and the descendants of our heroes take on the call to arms while starting to form unlikely alliances in order to fight the looming threat of the elder dragons.

The guild of Black Dragon has bore many names in the past. Yet matter did it not. Its brave members have gathered once more from all across the globe and started actively contributing to the cause.

On the golem-powered-communications-server, heard u/Efrima countless voices. Some familiar, some new.

Efryr, our hero (by now not so little anymore) befriended the group of newcomers & veterans and together they formed a mighty war-krewe.

In charge of this communications-server, was the enchanting voice of the Asura-Queen Suzi.

Old players and new forged great friendships together. The two Asuras - Efryr and Suzi, grew very fond of each other and did almost everything in Tyria together. Some role-playing ensued, communications magically went beyond the borders of Tyria and leaped onto bizarre forms such as Sky-pe and Wha-tsa-p. Soon enough travel plans were set and the enrolled in yet a bigger adventure :P

Hundreds of hours of Skype video chatting, thousands of whatsapp conversations, 7 visits, 2.6 years and countless adventures later, and here we are ;)

We've had, and keep having tons of fun together :P

What's funny is, that even all these years ago, in GW1, she was still around! She came into the guild a bit later, but we never really got to talk for some reason...We got around to talking and spending time together only as GW2 came out! :D

Furthermore, the leaders of the guild, plus some of the other guildies were some of her best friends...and I knew them even before the both of us met! haha

Kirsten, the game, Lucan and our guild, have got me through some rough times and always gave the feeling of family and a shoulder to lean on. These are the kinds of connections you dare not and can not trifle with :)

Even two years further, things are moving fast! Never a dull moment and our adventures never cease!

I fully moved to The Netherlands "realm" and am currently under royal evaluation... I hope they recognize my past experience in the royal Tyrian guard! Our family grew a bit fluffier with the help of Moxxi ( Our flaming shiny Toller doggo guardian) and last summer we've constructed Castle Sweetfyre up to it's full glory :) (well, under construction, but still...Koptev will be proud! There's even an Armory! :P).

And more importantly, a journey that begun with simple curiousity and thirst for adventure, had left us immensely richer in wonderful shared experiences, friendships and love. - 2018 begun with the official creation of the 'House of Sweetfyre' ;)

Guild Wars and Arenanet have shaped our lives in more ways we can possibly count. We can never thank you enough.

Thank you for reading and now quit it! It's time to go save Elona from bugs! ;)

Guild Wars 2 soundtrack appreciation.

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 06:31 PM PST

After Fear Not This Night cover, I think I had to make this post.

I was sad when Jeremy Soule left the franchise after so many years, but it didn't take much time to realise that we have a legendary musician as a gift.

Thank you Maclaine Diemer, thank you for the amazing music you've created so far. I've downloaded Heart of Thorns and Path of Fire soundtracks on Spotify and they're my favourites on my daily commute.

why do i get more gold AFKing at Akili then t4 fractals or champion bounties?

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 12:53 PM PST

in 5 minutes, you get about 10 exotic bags, each containing rare gear and lots of masterwork, and chances at exotic weapons selling for 5-15g each, and the general drops ofc, vs 30 mins at working hard at fractals, which gives you like 10 gold if you're lucky and 60g of ascended armor every week, or bounties that give like 2 gold in that same time but you actually have to put effort to survive and traverse the entire map? huh?

Nevermind you then can afk at sunspear greathall and palawdwan inbetween Akilis

All of my friends now find all the content in gw2 to be unrewarding vs afking Istan, and as someone who enjoys doing a variety of content i feel sad now that my friends have to be dragged along as they lose precious Istan time

the effort:reward ratio is very messed up atm, Istan really needs a nerf

Arcane outfit : advice?

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 08:13 PM PST

Hello! I would like to purchase an outfit which could work (hopefully) on all my characters. I've got a female sylvari mesmer, a male norn ele, a female asura necro and a charr male guardian. What I like about the Arcane outfit, is the "not over the top" look of it and it's pretty much one of the only way (as I know of!) to have a clothed look on a heavy class like the guardian. What I would like to know is for the people who own it, does it look weird on a charr? It can be hard to judge only from images and the preview window :). Or maybe would have better recommandations?

An interesting parallel I noticed

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 07:58 PM PST

Anet pls redesign AI to concentrate on character with max toughness during 5 man content also, come on we have healer now. pls

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 07:56 PM PST

So this mechanics I know happens in raids, and I love tanking as a warrior as my group allows me to do. I really feel even 5 man instances can get benefit from this a lot with defensive cools, and dedicate healers available now it is such a blast to play as a tank in this game.

please have this mechanic at least in next expac Anet, it give so much organization and team management with groups especially if in T3-T4. with a dedicated healer it is such a breeze and feels so rewarding.

warrior is a real blast to play with mace shield and full PTV gear and trinkets and runes. I recommend anyone who feels to try it out and have fun do a warrior tanking and see you wont go back, same with Guardian but you will need a dedicated healer though.

This trinity shouldn't be mandatory but, don't restrict people. the amount of customization interms of gameplay is just very good in this game and other behemoth MMOs of the market feels so restrictive. why restrict on this aspect. we have freedom of movement now lets have freedom in play experience.

Full Counter inconsistency on Siax? (Nightmare CM)

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 10:54 AM PST

Have any other spellbreakers noticed that their Full Counter inconsistently blocks Siax's hallucination-spawning orange circle?

Every other block, evade, aegis, etc. works fine for me, but since I started playing spellbreaker, I want to say Full Counter nullifies the add summon maybe 70% of the time.

Legendary PVP armor and upgrades

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 06:59 PM PST

I am about to craft a couple pieces of the legendary pvp armor. Do I need to extract the runes and infusions on my Ardent Glorious armor or will they stay on there when I mystic forge them?

Just returned to the game and haven't found the answer for my question

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 06:46 PM PST

I just got to lvl 50 with a Guardian, I've played 5 years ago when the game was released, but it wasn't all fun for me because there was a lack of cool endgame content. But my question is(because i've heard someone saying that), can I get full ascended gear without any kind of "season" content? I bought both expansions, but I really don't want to expend even more money to get some trinkets and stuff. I want to be abble to raid and get full ascended without expending even more =(

Why do you sell your items instantly on TP instead of put on the list? (If you do this)

Posted: 28 Feb 2018 05:11 PM PST

I was trying to play some TP (and eating :D) and wandering what is the reasons that some people sell their items this way... so why not ask directly to you.

Most of the items i need to craft continuously i always place the buy order and always list the items to sell. Most of the times i can buy and sell this way but of course sometimes i replace buy orders and relist items (paying the listing fee more than once).

Since i rarely sell to buy orders i can only imagine why you sell this way. Maybe for fast gold..? To not bother to list the item more than once (fees)..?

 

What is the reasons you sell instantly?
