    Broken numbers can be easily tweaked. Broken design can't. DPS isn't the main problem with Mirage.

    Crazy lag all day today

    Posted: 15 May 2021 07:27 AM PDT

    Crazy amount of lag all day from 3PM to 10:25PM now, especially bad in WVW any map regardless of outnumbered! Also lagged so bad in Div. Reach that I can't even do lvl 10 human story without disconnecting twice per episode. Not sure where to send this so I'm posting here since at least some devs visit here. I'm on NA playing in East Asia if it helps. I used various web api to test my wifi speed - it's coming back 52/12 so the problem isn't my wifi speed going down during prime time.

    Anyone else lagging monkey shitsnacks?

    REMINDER: WvW weeklong bonus starting today as part of Guild Wars 2 Live: Summer 2021

    Play GW2 with PS4 Controller? Any existing profile and import?

    Posted: 15 May 2021 06:42 AM PDT

    Wanting to play GW2 again, but action combat with mouse and keyboard is just a nightmare. I have been using a PS4 controllers for most of my games and it feels fantastic.

    I checked on xpadder but it seems it is almost exclusively for xbox controllers. Will the steam controller thing works? (I launch the game directly from Arenanet, and launching steam is always a bit of a hassle). Joytokeys?

    Mount Guides at Metabattle

    Posted: 14 May 2021 11:16 AM PDT

    According to Anet, the WvW bonus week means there's no better time to unlock your Warclaw. Therefore I thought people may find some mount unlocking guides useful:

     

    A lot of work went into the Skyscale guide in particular in minimising the insane amount of backtracking the collection requires.

     

    If that's not your thing, we also have a full set of guides for Raids and Strikes, in addition to our (slowly) growing number of Fractal guides too!

    Downed states in PVP completely messed up?

    Posted: 15 May 2021 06:59 AM PDT

    Honestly,

    what can i do as a thief with 300hp left vs a downed minion master necro ?

    It is completely unfair. Or does anybody know a good solution for this?

    Why dont all classes have the same downed state dmg and no life regain and all that stuff ?

    Preview classes?

    Posted: 15 May 2021 06:45 AM PDT

    Hello all. I'm new to the game. Is there a way to easily preview all the classes and the weapon abilities for each class?

    Also is this game casual pvp friendly? Thanks.

    It's stupid we still can't complete home instances for secondary cooks years after the release of ascended cooking

    Posted: 14 May 2021 01:04 PM PDT

    https://en-forum.guildwars2.com/topic/61186-seimur-oxbone500-cooking-quests-cant-be-100-completed-on-2nd-char/ posted in 2019 and still not fixed.

    Leveling cook to 500 on a second character will leave your home instance scattered with a Seimur npc that has a collection icon on top of his head instead of the correct vendor icon and the npc also can't be used as a vendor.

    This is because the gourmet training achievement can only be redone partly on a new character.

    Why is it so hard to make the effects of this collection accountwide?

    If you have done this achievement on an alt and then on your main, your main has now a permanently broken home instance. Why is this still not fixed.

    Mysteries and commentaries of contemporary PvP

    Posted: 14 May 2021 08:27 PM PDT

    Hey folks,

    I've played this game for a hot minute. Hell, I played GW2 back when Dervishes were cool. And I've enjoyed all of the elements of the game to one degree or another.

    However, lately, the PvP feels like I'm playing against hardened bots with beginner bot teammates. I am not thrilled by this. Please stop botting, wenches.

    My true purpose in writing this, though, is not to kvetch about the tryhards and the inters but rather to toss an idea out to the community and folks in charge: allow duels in any map or area between two or more people so that we have greater control over who we fight.

    Imagine this: you're chilling before a meta event. Everyone is gathered 'round a swamp, say, with bobble heads vigorously bobbling, drunkards heavily drinking, and food trays and banners scattered without care. Suddenly, two fellers in legendary armor begin fighting TO THE DEATH. WITH THEIR ABILITIES. Firestorms are countered by headshots, clones distract sniper shots, and guardians just kinda do their winning thing. What has happened, you ask?

    Why, one player right-clicked another and invited him to a friendly duel. They placed a small wager (optionally, of course) and proceeded to shoot unicorns and bubbles at one another. The victor gains bragging rights and a higher rank, the loser has a lighter wallet, but both parties had fun and golly, there are still 6 minutes until the worm spawns. Let's go again!

    I dunno. I love this game. I know there are a ton of elements to consider in future developments, and the PvP is already quite extensive with WvW and SPvP. But dang, as fun as that is, I really just wanna have a 1v1 with my fellas and fillies when I'm not grinding for skyscale materials or getting my trash kicked in some Zerg.

    This post was way longer than I originally intended, but it should be mentioned that I have gamed extensively for the last 16 years, and my favorite things in games usually involve skilled battles between me and my fellow gamers in a fast, non-committal way. I'm coming from a voice of experience. Gaming stops becoming a thing you do. It's who you're doing it with that matters. And I wanna bond in bloody brawl, dang it, when I want, where I want, and wearing as much or as little fancy armor as I please.

    TL; DR: make dueling a thing pl0x

    Sincerely,

    Thenatoni the Thief Main

    Stocking up for my adventure....

    Posted: 14 May 2021 06:26 PM PDT

    I know that unlimited gem store versions exist...but let's say you don't have access to those. What do you stock in your bags for a typical night of leveling/exploring?

    Release Date predictions?

    Posted: 15 May 2021 03:38 AM PDT

    So FFXIV just revealed their expac will launch November 23rd. Based on this , do you guys think EoD will be earlier like September/ October or a Winter release?

    On another note : did anyone see their full trailer for the expansion? So much hype, amazing music and CGI. Wish we got something like that for EoD but Arenanet probably doesn't have such a high budget for it.

    Alt Account

    Posted: 15 May 2021 06:28 AM PDT

    Hi. I want to level up an alt account to lvl 80 as quick as possible. But i don't know any of the methods nor how to do them, could someone help me?

    Also, does having a already lvl80 account help in any way?

    The big hidden coloured chests in Bjora are great !

    Posted: 14 May 2021 06:05 AM PDT

    I'm talking about the GREEN/RED/BLUE Chests spread across the map like the ones we have in strikes

    They reward exploration and challenge, often hidden behind vets or champions, they give great loot, the animation is satisfying and the design of them with the color cues linked to the masteries aswell.

    I hope we see more like that !

    Revenant feedback

    Posted: 14 May 2021 02:12 PM PDT

    Hello, this is just feedback from open world and spvp perspective. So not high end fractals or raids.

     

    I think the nerf to soulcleave's summit was justified because the skill was ridiculous, but I hope there is a follow-up buff by reducing its costs and/or cast time in the future. It has kept the large costs associated with the much stronger version.

     

    Mallyx's gameplay of transferring conditions from allies to self has been significantly damaged. The resistance and retaliation changes were good for the long term health of the game but mallyx in particular needs more grease to be truly functional in pvp environments. Sucking a bunch of burning to yourself with no good way to deal with it is just not a good idea. Their heal also becomes worse when you transfer poison to yourself which just punishes the player further for playing how mallyx is "supposed" to be played. I think mallyx needs more defenses against conditions baseline within the stance to make using pain absorption not suicidal. It could be some kind of baseline self-to-enemy condition transfer on another skill, or maybe make pain absorption grant dark aura or something. Resolution just doesn't do enough to make using pain transfer anything but an actively bad idea. Also some of the resistance related traits and runes can be buffed back up since the boon is considerably weaker.

     

    I'd like core rev to be more viable. In open world specifically, it feels impossible to escape renegade because the shortbow is just too nice, even before the good skills and traits are factored in. I truly think there should be another baseline ranged weapon because I can't bear to part with the shortbow.
