Guild Wars 2 - Can we nuke LA again?

Can we nuke LA again?

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 05:21 AM PDT

I finally started playing the PoF content after holding off until I finished everything in HoT, and can I say that the new zones are some of the most well designed I've seen? Amnoon is wonderfully designed and feels like a real city, with twisting narrow streets and lots of character, infrastructure, and places to explore.

It reminded me a little of old Lion's Arch. New LA is so ugly and bland compared to Amnoon.

I'd say can we nuke LA like my title, but there's barely any buildings to destroy anyway it's so empty.

V1.0 GW2 Elite Insights Raid Log Parser release

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 02:46 PM PDT

https://github.com/baaron4/GW2-Elite-Insights-Parser Download Here

GW2EI has had a lot of updates,changes and fixes since my last post. In fact I prefer the visual graph when it comes to talking about changes. Since last time weve added:

  • Boss summary: A place to see the bosses dps, uptime of conids, rotation(yes the bosses rotation), damage distribution of each skill, and even his minions damage distribution.

  • A new simple rotation view

  • A hits per cast stat: Which is a good way to see how accurate you are with placing skills down or getting lucky with meteor showers.

  • A Code Start Version So you can automatically parse your files with your own scripts

  • Hovering over scholar uptime will now tell you how worth scholar runes were actually to bringing

  • Reworked the way boon tables look to view uptimes on all of them

  • A Player Death Recap for when you wanna know, "What killed me?"

  • Rudimentary Food Tracking: If your food does not show up feel free to add it to our list or make a Issue post

  • Weapon Tracking: Did that SB/SB SB just beat me?? Now you know. (This is an estimate based off players skill rotation)

  • Average total boons So you can tell how many boons you had for weaver bursts, etc

In the future:Currently working on .

This is a constantly growing project and I would love to get as much feedback as possible. Weather it be bugs, features you would like, missing addition or you got tired of seeing that stray character in some random tool tip. Please leave a post in the Issues forum so we can apply changes to improve this project. Could always use new food IDs, boon IDs I may have missed, boss additions when we get new raids/fracs, profession icons when we get new xpack. Or one better fork the project and make changes yourself, its completely open to any changes that are constructive.

Massive thanks to EliphusNUIT for going over everything, reworking , adding, refactoring, and in general being a huge help!

Some Facts:

  • Right click an evtc file and change the "Open With" program to GuildWars2EliteInsights.exe so you can just double click evtcs and they process right there

  • This project is open source. There is nothing dangerous with this program and if you dont believe me check the source code

  • I recommend getting Visual Studio Community edition, adding the GitHub plugin and clone the repo to start making any changes you would like. Make a pull request and itll be added to the master branch

GW and GW2’s age

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 02:16 PM PDT

I feel old.

Just got back into the game and loving it more than ever though!

Returning to Guild Wars after 8 years

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 06:12 PM PDT

I started with Guild Wars when I was 15 years in high school. I don't remember how many years I played after that but I had between 3000 and 4000 hours ingame.

I had 3 pve characters: monk, ranger and warrior. It was specially satisfying doing raids and using selfless spirit on the tanks and spam those healing and protective skills in combination with some bonds.

You can not imagine that feeling I had all those late night GW sessions laying back and taking care of my guildmates wave after wave of Destroyers in the Depths of Tyria or Dryders in the Realm of Torment. Ahhh that feeling...

I choose the Luxon Armada vasals and really enjoyed doing Alliance battles and help move the borders :)

I got to max Savior of the Luxon rank, that's more than 10 million faction transferred.

But most of all I enjoyed the large scale of it. And you had your build that you were used to and from there on weren't stressed, capping points. Again sometimes as a monk holding out with my teammates at choke points against overwhelming numbers of Kurzick until other Luxons came in and saved the day.

Fast forward to 2018, after 8 years of break I picked up GW2 2 days ago. So much has changed, I don't know if it's because of the nostalgia but I will need some time to get used to all those changes. Guild Wars was my first love but hell, let me making Guild Wars 2 my second and better love. Let's not be like those "back in the days"- people.

I hope that I didn't miss out on too much fun and that GW2 won't stop until I was able to make some unforgettable memories. I think took such a long break because I was mad at myself for spending so much time in the game lol.

I also hope that I will get to know some nice people and find a friendly guild.

Now I'm off to play on my ranger.

I thought it would be a good idea to post about my GW life to motivate the community.

Have a nice day all

Warrior GS and Guardian GS

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 05:31 PM PDT

Tried both, love how hard-hitting the Warrior one feels, dislike the skills. Love the skills for Guard, but it feels like I am using paper. Safe to assume Warrior is the winner?

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 03:02 PM PDT

Do I not fully understand "Uncategorized fractal" Anymore?

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 06:41 PM PDT

i'm doing t2 fractal dailies, and i've had 3 groups in a row who don't seem to understand the mechanics of this fractal at all. and when we get to old tom they just charge in.

I'd taken a break for the past couple of years doing fractals so I do see the new format, but was something changed? Have I been dreaming that I had been doing this for years and years? This is so old what in the fuck...

Idea - Slider for Keyboard Rotational Speed

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 05:59 PM PDT

Most of us turn by the mouse camera control, and it's clearly the best way, but a recent short term injury made me spend more time using the keyboard then mouse in game.

It occurred to me that for whatever reasons, people that maybe could not use a mouse that well but had less issues with keyboard could use a slider for how fast you turn with the keyboard over mouse.

Players Helping Players

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 06:56 AM PDT

I often run into people who are struggling to understand the ins and outs of GW2 and have quick questions, need help with an achievement, or want someone to socialize with while playing.

Feel free to add me josh.4016 or join myself and friends on discord: https://discord.gg/FyTmFxG I'am Pewpewkachoo in Discord. No question is too trivial and helping people is a lot of what I enjoy, so don't be shy :)

I'll create additional channels if numbers increase to offer multiple spaces while people figure the game out together.

EDIT: Located on NA. I'm offer for the summer, so hours are pretty wide open.

Transparent arcdps with colored bars.

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 05:54 AM PDT

I've managed to make my arcdps transparent, but this makes class bars go transparent as well. Does anyone know how to make just background transparent but with colored bars?

After getting help from comments below i managed to get this thing done. To modify how your arc dps ui looks go to gw2instaldir\addons\arcdps and open arcdps.ini. At the bottom add these:

[display_altui]
transparency_mult=0 ;transparency of all backgrounds(0-transparent, 100-visible)
p0=21,19,23,100,80 ;none px=r,g,b,dps_opacity, totaldmg_opacity
p1=7,65,65,100,80 ;guardian
p2=75,58,17,100,80 ;warrior
p3=80,40,1,100,80 ;engie
p4=33,65,7,100,80 ;ranger
p5=51,25,30,100,80 ;thief
p6=80,1,1,100,80 ;ele
p7=75,12,60,100,80 ;mesmer
p8=4,57,35,100,80 ;necro
p9=37,1,13,100,80 ;revenant
c2=100,100,100,100 ;font color, incombat
c3=100,100,100,100 ;font color, outofcombat
c4=100,100,100,100 ;font color, player name highlight

"p" values control class color bars
"c" values control font colors (there are more than what i listed, goes from c1 to c9 but imo the rest is fine for all setups)
"transparency_mult" controls transparency. 0 is full trasparent, 100 is full visible. Be wary as setting it to 0 will make build template lose all its background as well and make it pretty hard to use. I'd say if you use build template but still want some transparent backgrounds go for values around 30.

Here is the screenshot of the colors in this setup.
You can change colors as you see fit, to help you get an idea of what to change and how you can use this. If you want to keep your character name being yellow - delete the last line "c4". Or change the color to your wanting.

Or you can test out colors posted by GrannyAppIe in the comments.

You can leave the .ini file open, keep changing the values and updating the arcdps with SHIFT+ALT+O to easly check your changes, just remember to CTRL+S the .ini after each change or it won't register ingame.

How it looks after edits to the .ini file.

The Arbiter: A Master Togo Revenant Elite Spec

Posted: 10 Jun 2018 10:28 PM PDT

As someone who loved the ritualist in GW1 and is now a fan of revenant in GW2, I would love to see a ritualist-inspired revenant elite specialization! I know that many people would like Master Togo as a legend to represent the ritualist so he is the one I have picked today, though there are some other interesting choices like Kaolai or Zei Ri. "But wait, Renegade uses spirits and is pretty much a ritualist spec, there's no need for this." Some may say, but people often forget that ritualists also had interesting weapon and item spells at their disposal! We all love our spirits though, so I included a couple spirit skills in the mix. They function similarly to spirit weapons on guardian, however, so they pop up and do their thing and then disappear which hopefully would make the gameplay distinct from renegade. Oh and of course numbers can be changed if they're unreasonably powerful/weak, as this was mostly done for flavor and fun. Without further ado, let's begin!

Overview:

[PSA] If you change countries, be careful when buying the expansions

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 08:12 PM PDT

Hey everyone,

I recently faced the situation where I bought both expansions and got my account locked soon after. At the end, it was due to me moving country and buying the expansions on a new region. My account got restored after I opened a ticket with support. So, if you buy the expansions on a new country and your account get locked, just reach support and they will help.

I was cured of the anomalous vision a while back...

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 03:39 PM PDT

I saw the reddit post of a player discovering the anomalous vision. Then the memories came flooding, I just want him back... I had gotten quite used to seeing him pop up randomly during my adventures. He kept me company. Although the AP grind got the better of me. I'm lonely now. :(

Please bring back my friend.

Wait times for password reset?

Posted: 11 Jun 2018 07:11 PM PDT

I purchased the game at launch and have been away since 2014. I forgot my password and tried to reset it. I have my serial number but unfortunately I forgot my character names (or maybe I've been hacked and my characters deleted?). I received my automated reply, but it's been 5 days and I've heard nothing. Is this the norm or should I submit another ticket?
