    How do you like my Guild Hall jumping puzzle?

    EoD preparation program or what to do when there is nothing to do in game

    Posted: 09 Jan 2021 03:50 AM PST

    This is list of things, you can do to prepare yourself and your toons for new expansion. Its mostly stuff you can get by playing nad not just throwing gold on problems. Most of these things are widely known, but may help new people to prepare. Whole article count that new expansion will have same format of progress then previous two. Any and all additions are welcome. And sorry for grammer :D

    Characters
    GW2 is very alt friendly game and I really think everyone should get those 9 base classes. It give you access to, well, everything - meta can change and your characters may end up behind while other rise up. Having each class help mitigate this problem. Plus each character get specific skins for new specializations, which are always welcome. So if you dont have them already, get slots, make chars and give them a try. You can take this slowly, getting gold and turn them to gems when they are cheaper and wait for character slots sales.

    Hero points Each new specialization need 250 hero points to unlock. If you do everthing in game you can have 404 spare hero points as of now. Getting hero points isn´t that hard - you can easily farm them in HoT and PoF maps - either check LFG for HP trains or call for help in map chat. Funnily enough someone always come. Plus many can be soloed. If you dont like this and you like wvw - you can get them throw proof of heroics, which are used to unlock hero points in pve maps.

    Trinkets Rings, accesories, amulets – each of these can be really easily obtained in LS2 and LS3 maps using each map currency. These are ascended quality and fully selectable, so great to have prepared for new content. You can, of course, buy these using other means (laurels vendors, raids and fractals vendors etc), but getting them throw LS currencies is cheapest option.

    Armors While „meta" will always go with ascended armors – its pointless wasting so much gold for open world, where exotic armors are more then enough. Once again, you want to go for selectable stuff –which are so easy to obtain nowdays they are almoust worthless on TP. Just do pvp and/or wvw to get Warlod´s Armor Boxes and get drown in so so so many boxes. Plus you can go for Runic armors (getting from strike missions), which is relatively easy to gain – even if it takes time.

    Weapons Again – exotic weapons are good enough. If you do raids and fractals you are probably swimming in ascended gear, but if not, then they are harder to get. On other hand, selectable exotic weapons are little harder to get then armors – but you can use specific pvp/wvw reward tracks (while you getting armors) to get chests from dungeons with weapon type you want. Or you can make gen2 tier 1 precursors crafting, which are cheap and give you lv80 selectable weapon.

    Runes and sigils This one is more tricky – meta for power and condi dps are easy to understand and costly as hell. For open world you can use cheaper alternatives – runes of infiltration or eagle are nice and cheap for example. Sigils like frailty or rage are good too. This works for condi builds too –you really dont need to go full meta to play a class. Interesting question here is if its good to stockpile different runes and sigils – with new specialization there can be unexpected combos, which could make some, now worthless runes and sigils, go throw roof in price. Or they add some fancy collection using one specific rune (looking at you sigil of nullification) making it go from zero to hero in hours.

    Other materials

    This is, once again, speculation – you may or may not need something in new expansion which can make some materials cost go throw roof, or make some materials become worthless. Still its not that bad before expansion to stockpile materials you would otherwise sell (as we dont know when EoD comming, stockpiling now could be very countra productive) edit. ascended daily gated materials may be good one to get too

    Underwater stuff

    Well ... many expected some underwater content in EoD, but dont think it will be that big a deal. Still, its nice to look upon your characters and finnaly change that lv 1 to 20 aquabreathers for rare(can be bought in forstgrove map heart), exotic (you could get it throw wintersday) or ascended (you can get it for berries in bitterfrost frontier map). As well as get exotic underwater weapons – this throw drops and tp, not much else you can do.

    Food and utility items

    You may want to get some nice exp and magic find boost food for solo running. Or prepare more fancy food for bosses and events. They are not really that needed in open world -but anything its better then nothing and you may need tons of experience gain to unlock new masteries -and there any exp booster help.

    Will to play :)

    There is not much to do in game nowdays if you arent new or really hardcore farmer – which make many people burn out. So dont push yourself to play just for sake of playing. Take a break, or log into account for daily rewards and then go.. well not outside nowdays, but to some other game, or book or movie ..heck you can even talk with your family :D

    New-ish to Fractal CMs. How do I KP now?

    Posted: 09 Jan 2021 07:20 AM PST

    Finished 98CM & 99CM fractals a few days ago. Feel very confident to start doing them in PUG groups while looking for 100CM trainings.

    Those "old CMs" parties require KPs with weird numbers but all I got after the clears was decoration items. What stuff is used to KP in fractals now? How many do I get per clear? I'm really lost here as to how to show kill proof in fractals.

    Ranger pet balance discussion

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 10:38 AM PST

    Oh boy. I know this is gonna get a lot of traction in one way or another.

    So, ranger pets. Some are great, and some are COMPLETE GARBAGE. PvP, PvE, WvW, whatever mode. Devourerererererers suck. Birds are strong in pvp. Drakes are eeeehhh, if you need to you can certainly use them, but there's better options for damage or bulk. Jacaranda exists.

    However, I have NO IDEA what to do for these guys, even as a ranger main. The last time I used a devourer was.. January, when I saw it and grabbed it for completions sake, and tried it out a bit.

    Of course, we could just go for the whole "make numbers bigger" thing, but I feel that wouldn't make the pets more useful other than making them overwhelmingly strong in a pvp scenario- there's some pets (like the bristleback or cats as a whole) that are super hard hitting, but also take 2 damage to kill. Then there's others, like the Jacaranda, who are so all around good its kind of broken. So, I would like to theorize what we could do with you guys. Just numbers? Change up some attacks? Something different?

    Also, quick druid discussion: why do some of these glass cannon creatures need to get completely nerfed? Why not change it so that it's like soulbeast- their archetype lowers those stats and keeps the rest. That way, your ferocious creatures wouldn't die so easily from their less natural bulk and can still not do as much damage as they would normally, and your bulky creatures could still do their already pretty poor damage (relative to others) and lose a bit of their beef.

    I hope we can get some good balancing changes for rangers pets to make everything more universally viable without being extremely powerful in most situations that call for using a pet (damage, damage, eating hits, more damage) before cantha drops, even though it'll likely add only a few more pets similar to how PoF and HoT didn't add too many. I hope we can get some good new pets though! And that the Phoenix returns and is an actual firebird and not... what gw1 had... hearing about that and then seeing it was a disappointment.

    Tips on Getting Started

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 07:05 PM PST

    Hey guys, I just started playing and I am a level 8 Ranger. I am at the Township of Claypool and don't really understand what to do concerning jobs like Chef, Artificer, Jeweler, and others. Is there a limit on side jobs and what should I be doing right now?

    So I just got to level 80 on a Warrior, currently using Greatsword/ Axe Axe. I've watch some youtube content but really no clue what I should be doing now other than story. I have HoT but not PoF, wills probs buy this weekend. I don't need anything in depth, just a pointer in right direction.

    PvP question

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 10:00 PM PST

    Hi all,

    I've been away for some time (~1year+) and I want to return. I've always been a pvper. I also love fractals. I want to get ascended gear finally (I've played since beta and am still in full oranges). How easy is this to achieve just through pvp? Maybe some fractals on the side (last I did a fractal I was about +45).

    From the Ashes Cant be Completed

    Posted: 08 Jan 2021 01:09 PM PST

    Whenever I get to the end of the Living Story 4 mission From the Ashes, I disconnect from the server and am ejected from the instance. I have tried 6 times, sometimes after restarting the program, restarting the computer, and running GW2 as an admin. This is what I get for being late to the party :p

    Did anyone have this issue? Is it a known bug? Does anyone have any ideas how to fix it/work around it?
