    Just came here to say: Thank you ArenaNet for making the game affordable.

    Posted: 16 Sep 2020 01:11 AM PDT

    I'm Korean and I have recently been watching streamers play the newly updated MMO Lost Ark Online, and it astonished me how several of them appreciated the game for "not requiring that much money to play." I know them being streamers and them wanting to rush towards more content drive them to spend more, but spending around 10m Won (~USD8,500)? At first, I felt that streamers were biased and exaggerating...until I remembered there were other MMOs in Korea. In MapleStory, fitting 1 character of full end game gear can cost over a 100m Won. Meanwhile, Lineage was notorious for players spending few times that of said amount.

    So thank you ArenaNet. I really appreciate the game you guys made.

    [Data-Mining] Upcoming features from the September 15 patch

    Posted: 16 Sep 2020 03:32 AM PDT

    Hello everybody,

    Apologies for the delay and there isn't much to post about what's already public so consider this a post for the archives. I've also added a few snippets of information that I usually don't write about as an extra and the Fractal Rush event will start in two weeks.

    Enjoy

    Nerdy Goals

    This patch mentions the Nerdy Goal interface that showed up recently a couple times more, maybe it's related to the cube of doom?

    Sunqua peak. Thank you ArenaNet.. truly.

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 05:08 PM PDT

    You really exceeded yourself this time ArenaNet. Sunqua peak is simply amazing. I love the achievements to unlock the cm it was super fun grinding and learning the fractal and with certain requirements to be able to unlock the cm. And the cm... truly a masterpiece. I was let down at the start when I heard it was only 1 boss at the end in the cm but man did you surprise me swith a such intense cm boss. Thank you ArenaNet. You didn't even ask for 1$ for this masterpiece how is it even possible. All I'm asking for now is a twilight oasis cm because that fractal is also super good. Can't wait for the future. #youbroughtbackmyhype

    Character Only Upgrades are terrible

    Posted: 16 Sep 2020 03:27 AM PDT

    I love Guild Wars 2 for the focus on Account Value. Every Ascended Armor/Trinket can be exchanged between every Character with a few simple clicks. Features like the accountwide Wallet/Bank/Wardrobe/Material Storage are leading to a complete experience of qol.

    With the introduction of the terrible monatized templates, most of the upgrades were character only expansions. With the upcomming Legendary armory, i hope that we are looking to accountwide expansions again.

    [GUIDE] Sunqua Peak Cloud mechanic

    Posted: 16 Sep 2020 07:05 AM PDT

    There's another diagram going around that requires you to have access to dashes or blinks. This method allows any 4 players to complete the cloud mechanic fast. By not dispersing the first cloud at the 4 cardinal directions, you do not have to run an extra 45° and wait for the second round of lightning orbs to spawn. The 5th player can do whatever.

    Guild Wars 2 Vulkan conversion on Windows 10 (dxvk)

    Posted: 16 Sep 2020 05:48 AM PDT

    Hello everyone, decided to share this as it seems not many people know it, an alternative to directx 12 conversion mod "d912xy"

    There is a Directx 9, 10, 11 conversion to Vulkan project "dxvk" initially made for gaming on Linux.

    However it also works great on Windows 10 as well and is very simple to install.

    1. Download latest release https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases
    2. Unzip .dll files from x64 folder into game folder where Gw2-64.exe is.
    3. That's it! No shader caching required.

    Personally I had better results with this Vulkan conversion than Dx12 one, didn't encounter any graphical glitches so far, that's why I decided to share, we must do what we can to combat the Directx 9 bottlenecks.

    Edit: I'm also not saying not to use d912xy, if you test dxvk and d912xy still works better for you, keep using it, author of that mod did an amazing job! Sharing this only as an alternative because it gave me better overall results.

    [SPOILERS] Sunqua Peak CM discussion

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 02:20 PM PDT

    Damn, I really loved this CM. It was one of the most fun I've had with the game in a long time. Me and a couple guys started with doing all the achievements together, and finally did the CM after 3 hours. Especially figuring out the flame phase was super satisfying, getting something that felt like a brick wall at first down to a science.The fakeout at the end of the first boss was great, too. It's a shame that the final boss was quite a bit easier than the first one, but it looked awesome, and it felt a lot like the culmination of the mechanics up til then.

    What did you think of the CM? Also, feel free to ask questions in this thread if you're having a hard time figuring the fight out.

    All in all, a 10/10 to the fractal designers. It was an absolute pleasure to play. Definitely looking forward to playing this alongside the daily rotation.

    What's up with Guardians??

    Posted: 16 Sep 2020 12:40 AM PDT

    This is not a balance whine thread ;)

    I was wondering where all the Guardians/DH/FBs are?

    • GW2Efficiency shows it as the most common and most played class among its users
    • It is the amazing can-do-it-all class
    • It feels like I see them everywhere in the open world

    Yet, when I look for strikes every group is almost always looking for some variation of the Firebrand. Sitting at 9 for five minutes? Sorry guys we can't go, have to wait on Hfb/Qfb.

    And neither heal druid nor boon chrono is acceptable. Which is okay, I get it, Firebrand is the best.

    But why, seriously, WHY do I rarely see one in instanced content? Like, out of ten players zero Guardians (and elites)? In any other game, when something is "op" everyone and their dog plays that class. The stats on a website targetting dedicated players back that up. Why don't I see them in my instanced content?

    [spoiler] For those of us who will probably never see the CM, is there more lore in it?

    Posted: 15 Sep 2020 05:57 PM PDT

    And could you please tell us said lore?
