oh i was playing the meme one where you're locked into fire

atomic cove
#

ele is the one class i really kinda want to play well, but always kinda get slapped on face with how naturally squishy ele is

crystal cave
#

ele has a LOT of active defensive utility to make up for its low hp pool and armor stats

#

its why pvp players never stop complaining about bunker ele

crystal cave
potent crow
#

Is the difference between active and passive tankiness

#

Sone specs have a lot of defensive utility like blocks invulns and dodges. Others just tanky through traits and natural stats

crystal cave
#

pretty much yea

#

its not as easily accesible as say mesmer

#

which pretty much always has distort on the bar

#

but its up there

#

you're looking at stuff like

  • eframes
  • healing (either weapon skills, utilities or combo finishers)
  • hard cc (stuns/kockbacks and the such)
  • weakness application so that you take less incoming power damage
  • resolution and protection boon uptime from skills
  • straight up invulnerability
  • stun breaks
  • other sources of damage block like aegis and channeled blocks
unique herald
#

whats e frames

crystal cave
#

evasion frames

#

the thing you get when you press teh dodge button

unique herald
#

ah

crystal cave
#

theres a few weapon and utility skills that also do that

#

and usually it comes with an animation lock for the duration

crystal cave
#

also disclaimer all builds are as squishy as you make them

potent crow
#

Ele ccs are usually fast tho, so great for interrupting, not for stunlocking

crystal cave
#

you could rock into anything with full trailblazers and there'd be functionally no difference between you and a necromancer

#

yea

#

ele cc also has like decent power coeffecients for some reason? in pve at least

atomic cove
#

i do love Ele on how many tool they have access to

teal vault
#

May I have guild invite @ KillSlash.6148 whenever there is an opportunity?

teal vault
glacial locust
#

finally, just a bit more xp to finish up soto masteries

bright stump
#

lmao holy troub is so broken in wvw

#

so much disrespectful movement that you can make

left phoenix
#

Sounds like a mesmer

dry pilot
#

Yo, conduit sounds pretty damn cool

#

after reading the passives and stuff

#

very customizable too

#

basically doubling down on the other chosen legend with some stuff

#

this week's jumping puzzle is WHICH ONE?

#

hell no

#

nope

#

not again

crystal cave
#

I got this week's MK2 golem done because someone just called it out in a random map chat (like in janthir) saying it's about to start so I just went to the waypoint asap :v

#

You can just skuscale through retrospective runaround tho

dry pilot
#

i like doing the puzzles tbh lmao

#

but this one, ew

#

did it once and that's it 😂

#

i'll just do golem now

#

and mage's tower later

#

after lunch

#

or right after golem if it didn't finish yet

crystal cave
#

i just salvaged rare unid's that i bought

#

free money ✅
free astral acclaim ✅

bright stump
#

Yeah lol aoe distortion cannot make it to live, no anet pls nerf

rocky sparrow
#

did you farm you ticket to buy it yet?

#

before the seasonal event is over

#

@digital bronze

digital bronze
#

i have not!!

#

i should work on that

#

i really want that

#

is it difficult to farm those or just time consuming?

rocky sparrow
#

a bit like a time gate to get the pink ticket

#

doing 2 of the daily give you a blue and yellow ticket

#

you click to combine them to pink ticket

#

you'll need 3 total

#

there should be some achievement that gives you a pink ticket

digital bronze
#

okie maybe i login later after i eat

#

cant sleep now ppl being noisy outside bc its weekend

rocky sparrow
shadow loom
#

let me know when

#

rocky sparrow
#

shadow loom
#

digital bronze
#

#

rocky sparrow
#

limber tangle
#

oh I completely forgot about pink tickets

#

I just went for wizard's vault and forgot about everything else

pale flint
#

i can come farm too if theres room. i need to do mroe still

unique herald
#

i dont even know what is being farmed

#

but if theres space im prob there

#

i can use a break from agi

#

hit my goal today

glacial locust
#

i'd like to come too, wanna try bladesworn but that goes pretty weird for me solo, though i guess i should eat first

limber tangle
#

shows how much each option is worth

#

it's based on semi-live data. The website pulls data from API

#

don't know how often it updates

digital bronze
shadow loom
#

oh beta is up again

pale flint
#

yeha it went up last night!

digital bronze
#

@glacial locust wanna come for the event thingy

glacial locust
#

sure one sec zoning

digital bronze
#

theres boss blitz soon

#

which ones ur ign

#

we in squad stalalaBongo

bright stump
#

Killing stuff?

digital bronze
#

the 4 winds event

teal vault
#

So I had forgotten about the twitch drops and bought ritualist outfit last week with gems. Support gave me the gems back as a one-time exception. So for everyone out there who buys gemstore stuff, be more careful than I did 😄

potent crow
#

They refund fairly often, but try not to take advantage

#

I got refunded a full ascended armor set a long time ago cuz I forgot to move to bank when i deleted a character

digital bronze
#

thats so nice of them

bright stump
#

If you accidentally delete something, contact support as well they help out

limber tangle
#

Yea can't think of many studios that have that level of support

#

Maybe GGG

crystal cave
#

the only things they cant refund iirc are stuff that unlock skins for you like if you accidentally bind a legendary instead of selling it

#

apparently they can't undo account progression or something

#

i had a backpiece replaced where i chose the wrong stats by accident, they're super nice 😄

quasi halo
#

lol i was doing some wvw now

#

on green

#

and we just get obliterated in 1 sec in every zerg fight

#

they just run over and wipe us in a sec

#

this one was funny cause we got into the center of the castle, and started doing the boss, and immediatly they ran us over, and then 1 sec later the other team zerg comes from behind and start fighting

teal vault
tardy ore
#

perfectly balanced wvw matchup

quasi halo
#

that can't be right, is that saying green has 4k kill on eternal battlegrounds?

tardy ore
#

yeah

#

most of the time they run adound in a 40+ zerg and raze everything to the ground

quasi halo
#

well it's defnitely not this time lmao, we were getting wrecked

tardy ore
#

they tear down walls, wipe the first group in the keep and wait for the ewp to farm more kills

#

idk why they havent adjusted defensive siege damage after they introduced REAL healer specs

bright stump
#

The kills/deaths per map should be for the matchup from wvw reset

crystal cave
#

maybe youre on a different green team :^

#

theres multiple tiers and each tier has a green blue and red

bright stump
#

This was our 20 man squad for 2 hours late NA, not even NA prime

quasi halo
bright stump
#

A different night, another 2 hour raid

#

But yeah during peak/shoulder hours you can have thousands of deaths/kills per night

quasi halo
#

oh my team could easily contribute to thousands of deaths

tardy ore
#

thats t1 eu matchup

#

i randomly selected a team and ended up there stalalaDespair

#

lower tiers are probably more fun

glacial locust
#

my condolences

rocky sparrow
#

Fishing idea @unique herald have alt just to parked there to fish when you think it respawn

unique herald
tardy ore
#

the goddamn government eating up all my profits AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

unique herald
#

The cost is so high and nonrefundable

tardy ore
#

i saved a bunch by using the legendary starter pack

#

but still

alpine wave
#

why do I always wait till sunday to finish the weeklys...

tardy ore
#

time for my next project

alpine wave
#

welp time to do events

tardy ore
#

do the daily/weekly wizard vault chests give different rewards depending on the content type they are ?

alpine wave
#

I have no idea, I've always just had it set to PVE

rocky sparrow
#

I think it's a 90 days per season of 4 for each expansion since soto

#

Just looking at the previous reward track

crystal cave
# alpine wave

if you have an elementalist summoning and killing your lesser elementals counts

#

for elemental enemies

#

like when they naturally die or when you mount up or you change the skill so they die

#

i got most of this progress grinding greer cm

#

failing a raid is also an event

#

succeeding isnt however

#

thanks anet

bright stump
#

WvW weeklies tend to be super fast, like single night fast. Pvp can be completed in one match sometimes, pve is a big pool that can make it take a while longer

#

But none of them are super tough tbh

glacial locust
#

i haven't tried them in the new system but my problem with wvw dailies/weeklies always used to be they were really fast if you could join a public zerg that was pveing objectives, but could be really annoying if your side was inactive or being farmed and you didn't get lucky with the options

limber tangle
#

WvW have been fairly trivial for me to complete. Usually daily is <5 minutes. Sometimes if my last choice is kill 3 players, escort yak, or defend objective it might take more than 5 minutes but I'm usually done within 3

#

For weekly, if I see a tag up and it looks like a good opportunity to do them, I just stay in WvW for longer to clear my weekly

#

and the do 500k dmg to players one can also be done in structured PvP if you somehow didn't manage to do that much damage in a zerg

unique herald
#

Personally im a spvp daily fan

#

But i also enjoy spvp

#

Usually get em all done in one match

limber tangle
#

You can also see what next weeks objectives are going to be on the wiki

#

this shit is basically free

#

PVE is pretty fast too but can suck if you want to complete them on a character that has never been to certain areas

glacial locust
#

i suppose having all the mounts and a bunch of teleport items makes that less of a problem for some than others

crystal cave
#

pve gets weekly ttf

tardy ore
#

with pve theres a chance you get sent to a zone you havent unlocked yet

glacial locust
#

it's definitely been faster for me to drag characters to new overworld maps than it has been for me to cross wvw maps for easily soloable objectives when my luck is bad.
would be nice if they brought back the old system where you just had all the options and could do any 3 of them.

#

i thought that was impossible but maybe that was just them not sending you to zones in expansions you don't own

#

...and at least looking at the post above they're all doable in core maps, minus some JPs i guess

#

point being if you don't particularly like wvw or spvp those options are going to be generally more pain than pve dailies/weeklies, even if they are sometimes faster

pale flint
#

cant rememebr if i shared it in here, but the leader of my other guild sent me some handmade flowers as thanks for helping them out with some things. gw2 community so nice

cloud narwhal
#

Any chance I can get an invite to the guild? :3 username is POW HA HA.6283 fatmorning

digital bronze
#

i might actually end up merging 2 guilds together at some point

#

i think having a separate one is a bit difficult hmjj

#

also we can just do all the guild stuff and benefit together instead of having to do it twice

limber tangle
#

we don't even do guild events on one guild

digital bronze
#

in hindsight maybe i shouldnt hvae named this retirement club

limber tangle
#

can't you rename?

digital bronze
#

need anet support iirc

unique herald
#

retire from retiring

digital bronze
#

@everyone Sorry for the ping! I'm gonna be merging [chat] with [COPE] bc 2 guilds is too difficult for my brain
The new guild is [COPE]!! I should have already invited everyone in the previous guild (make sure to open guild to accept) but if I didn't, give me your GW2 ID again! We have a guild hall that is still WIP but you can access it on the top right of guild menu~

Also if you're super picky with how the guilds are ordered in the menu, make sure you leave [chat] first so there isn't a weird gap Despairge

why am I there?

i donated all the mats that i can to the cause!

thank u i appreciate so much

i wanna level my crafters eventually so i can make stuff

unique herald
#

ty for the mats

digital bronze
#

keld not suffering alone anymore

#

we have frens now..

unique herald
#

good news is

#

most of the treasurey is basic stuff

#

so not like super deep into crafting

#

think the scribe makes furniture n shit from what my eyes can see

#

i'll prob level that on one of my alts later

glacial locust
#

yea scribe is like guild hall stuff and maybe homestead style stuff? pre-soto at least it was pretty much a gold sink for most players

teal vault
#

I has bird. First big goal achieved

unique herald
#

i still dont have him

#

Congrats

teal vault
#

Now I just need this skin to come back in the store

unique herald
#

soon you shall zoom

#

LMAO HIS FACE

#

he got the squished face

glass sigil
#

so next up on map completion for main is snowden drifts duckthumbsup

crystal cave
#

one day I'll be rich enough to level scribe

glacial locust
#

i keep going back and forth on it, but there are too many legendaries i'd rather spend the gold on

crystal cave
#

same

#

like yea being able to craft transference sigils is pretty neat but also i dont think that's worth teh 9mil gold it takes to level scribe

glacial locust
#

those shareable enhancement tomes seem like they could be useful, but also kind of explains why they don't drop anywhere

crystal cave
#

ive seen a couple drop :^

#

usually tryhard cm groups

#

but like more likely it's just "buy your own writs"

glacial locust
#

...i really wanted the 10th birthday gift to have an enhancement station version of the birthday cakes, which i guess we kind of got since there's no more use for the decade... thingies once you have all the skins, but i'd rather bring an endless one

#

yea i suppose also most of the meta enhancements are sharpening stones anyway

crystal cave
#

is there an allstats utility?

#

afaik utils are very specialised so you'd have to essentially make legendary utilities

#

but like holy crap have you seen the custom rollerbeetle race tracks people make in their guild halls

#

scribes are kinda goated

bright stump
#

But it's from the 10+ years anniversary birthdays

#

And it's single use

bright stump
glacial locust
crystal cave
#

they are guild hall decorations that you have to place in the guild hall

#

idk exactly how they're made but there are a lot of different parts and those aspects are kind of also left to the scribes afaik

#

not that I've been in more than 2 guilds large enough to have those

rocky sparrow
#

Oh cool

#

More miners for the mines evilhehe

rocky sparrow
unique herald
#

yeah

#

the entire aspect of guild halls is big investment

#

but

#

that just makes it a more fun goal

rocky sparrow
#

Tru dat

#

Also

#

Wanna see how to make a high lvl deco?

#

So you'd know what you're getting into

rocky sparrow
#

At least condi rev is gonna be back stronger with conduit

#

I think

#

Antiquery too rng for anyone wanna group up with

atomic cove
#

chances are, anet "might" change thing around coming actual release

rocky sparrow
#

Exactly

atomic cove
#

isnt most people tested and said amalgem is super broken op

rocky sparrow
#

Dunno

#

I don't listen to those statements from beta

tardy ore
#

the power ceep continues

crystal cave
#

I wouldn't say things like that based on beta

tardy ore
#

from what ive seen the trend keeps steering towards more boons, more uptime

alpine wave
#

lets see what pve wants me to do this week

#

king of the jungle meta, at least thats in an expansion i've been through

#

1 last gamble

#

I

#

AM

#

SO

#

FGUCKING

#

SAD

#

NEVER GAMBLE

glacial locust
#

one man's tragedy is another man's comedy

rancid musk
#

Waiting just need this price to go back down to 30s or w/e

#

then its tail time

#

or.... i swipe now

#

gamble 1822 ectos

#

and hit it big

#

🤔

glacial locust
#

i put a bunch of orders in at 35 so i can make my chestpiece but i'm way behind on the luck so maybe i should cancel them

rancid musk
#

i thought about going obsidan leggy over wvw

#

but i realizsed

#

i fucking hate convergances and rifts

glacial locust
#

the weekly bonus chests mean a lot less convergences and rifts

cloud narwhal
#

I need some help with my glam. I'm trying to go for a nature's wrath design for my Untamed build.

glacial locust
#

do each of the 2 convergences 3x a week for 2 weeks and you have enough essence for a piece

rancid musk
#

thats 24

#

thats a pass

#

mount boring is so boring

#

i guess its better than bava nios

#

i need 2 do 3 more bavas actually...

glacial locust
#

12, but given my luck in wvw it'll be a lot less time essence farming than wvw farming

rancid musk
#

im in a wvw tribe that runs daily and enjoy it

#

sure, overall its what 22/23 weeks?

#

but i dont mind

#

would be doing it anyway prob

glacial locust
#

yea if you're already doing wvw and it's a bonus it's nice, but every time i time it out it's like... 20+ hours a week of wvw for many weeks and that's if i can reliably get squads

#

with my team luck i think the furthest i've got was like... the silver or gold chest so i end up getting really bad amounts of skirmish tickets for the time put in

rancid musk
#

oh

#

i easily get full plat by like tuesday

#

diamond*

glacial locust
#

i'd probably play more wvw if the tickets weren't so heavily backloaded but when my team is struggling it's like a full-time job of wvw to finish the chests so i just cba lol

rancid musk
#

my team, like the server

#

is so dogshit

#

this cycle

#

its insane

#

like, this is my 1st time back since the umm wvw restructing

#

and going from t1 b4 and t1 last month

#

to actual t4 this time

#

playing for fun mid day

#

is impossible

#

its a fucking joke

glacial locust
#

hmm i need to get put on the weenie hut jr wvw server so maybe i can learn how to roam

rancid musk
#

like, theres only comms that run when: my guild is on, or a different guild is on RIGHT b4 mine, so theres ~3h of comm tags up

#

other than that is ffa no tags just exist and pray

bright stump
#

Public comms tags are so hit and miss

#

Half the time we go public we end up wishing we didn't lol

rancid musk
#

yeah

#

but atleast it gives the people an idea

#

and some direction

#

its ok... month is almost over

#

surely im out of this hell

bright stump
#

Grass is usually not greener lol

#

Usually it's just join in a dedicated wvw guild

rancid musk
#

yeah im happy where im at guild wise

#

i just like 2 be able 2 hop in mid day

#

cannot do that here

#

i could roam

#

but then i may as well do spvp

#

idk how well people like the restructing thing as a whole

#

but from my very limited experiance with it

#

it sucks

#

🙂

bright stump
#

It is by far better in terms of actually being able to play with who you want

#

It is not good for playing with who you do not want to be with

#

It is also objectively a half ass job since it was supposed to be only a part of alliance system so I'd argue that it's broken and abandoned

rancid musk
#

alliance system seems sussy

bright stump
#

Just like the rest of wvw lol

rancid musk
#

but idk enough about it

bright stump
#

This isn't it

#

This isn't what alliances was supposed to be

rancid musk
#

people just use 1 guild as the base then tag on others right

#

so its all sorts of fucked

bright stump
#

Because it's a stop gap

#

And they still keep match making as if it mattered, which is supposed to be a legacy system

#

So it's a bunch of patch work systems that weren't intended to go together

#

But somehow got abandoned

rancid musk
#

im coping in my head wvw rush made stuff worse than it normally is

bright stump
#

WvW rush was great farming lol

rancid musk
#

wvw rush OWNED

bright stump
#

Did it bring new people to the game mode, I dunno

#

But we broke the weekly kill record

rancid musk
#

my cope is that used the metrics from the most recent week to spread out players or w/e tf they do

#

and because it was wvw week

#

it got weird

bright stump
#

20.5k kills was the old record for reset-reset, a guy in our guild got 25.8k kills that week

rancid musk
#

hell yeah

bright stump
#

Full gremlin mode lol

rancid musk
#

we faught ummm

#

aegy

#

or w/e

bright stump
#

Lol that's btd

rancid musk
#

they got absolutely crushed

#

then the next fight

#

like 5 second delay on my shit

#

kinda weird!

#

but if i speak im in big trouble

bright stump
#

Who do you run with?

rancid musk
#

gem

bright stump
#

Oh right yeah btd is out later usually

#

We had nic and porr lol

rancid musk
#

this week is super weird 2

#

everyone feels paper

#

with amalg and voker melting everything

#

i keep being told that rit is broken for dam

#

but idk

#

i think its ass

#

i must be playing it wrong

tardy ore
#

im not having a good time stalalaFine

#

i swear red and green have some sort of agreement

#

because both constantly rand through our keeps in homeland

rancid musk
#

they prob do!

tardy ore
#

the red homeland was completely red

rocky sparrow
#

Nah

#

People just be taking whatever they see are free

tardy ore
#

i havent seen green take a single red keep in 2 days

#

on ebg

glacial locust
#

everyone likes easy targets

bright stump
#

Path of least resistance is often the better explanation than cross alliance coordination

rancid musk
crystal cave
#

dang thats a lot of supply

rancid musk
#

sick name

cloud narwhal
#

Mining rate up is ready to go by tomorrow morning

glacial locust
#

gonna run mount balrior at reset if anyone wants to come

rancid musk
#

that event

#

should not have the cool first

#

followed up by stinky

#

wait

#

im thinking bava

#

nvm

glacial locust
#

yea i got a lot of jw story to do before i hit bava

rancid musk
#

my last gamble, fuck it. if 11,220 isnt enough for something good, then as the good people say

#

it is, what it is

glacial locust
#

hmm i need a nap, i walked straight into the lava lol

limber tangle
#

🙁 last day for event

#

my cash cow stalalaDed

unique herald
#

i feel like i missed the memo on the name of the ranks

limber tangle
#

when did that happen?

unique herald
#

i just logged in to open chests and i see the icon and my brain went

#

whats that

#

whats memb-

#

OH

#

MEMBER FROM EU

limber tangle
#

yea

unique herald
#

ok

#

nvm

#

no longer confused

limber tangle
#

stal basically just told us she thinks EU is better

unique herald
#

oh...

#

wiv

#

we are donezo

#

its time to pack it up

limber tangle
#

yep

#

oh

#

no pvp teams for you

#

you need to be sorry for that

unique herald
#

thats fine

#

im on my own team

#

team no friends

limber tangle
unique herald
#

to the resource donators

#

neaaarly there

#

for obvious reasons gonna get aetherium rate up first

limber tangle
#

I guess starting tomorrow or the day after I start dumping ectos in there

unique herald
#

no pressure if u want to or not

limber tangle
#

Keld....

unique herald
#

if you have goals that require ecto can priotize that

#

is what i mean

limber tangle
#

before the event started there wasn't a 1 there

#

what goals?

unique herald
#

idk

limber tangle
#

I had no goals in mind

#

I just did it cause I could

unique herald
#

maybe theres something ecto related ya are aiming for

limber tangle
#

oh no

#

I just crafted ectos for profit

unique herald
#

personally me before everyone joined i kinda disregarded the idea of making legendaries cause i like the idea of building guild home

#

seemed like a cooler goal

#

give everyone buffs

#

my type of fun

limber tangle
#

stalalaLoading maybe I just buy a leggie off the MB

#

but I should probably finish right side gear first

#

oh yea I think I have maybe 5k lucent crystals that I'm stashing on an alt because the event drove the price down

#

maybe I just get leggie sigil/rune

glacial locust
#

leg runes feel a lot less useful after the soto changes but i guess it does save me doing dungeon grinds

#

oh... i did 2 convergences and my weeklies are done lol

unique herald
#

once guild hall is lookin nice i go back to trying to build the spvp legendary set slooowly but surely

#

i just wanna learn how to spvp better

limber tangle
#

oh, I might be interested in joining

#

might

#

🕰️ Looking

#

too many things to do

unique herald
#

im sorta competitive so the game mode interests me

#

and i see ppl doing cool shit

limber tangle
#

I considered making the the back piece

#

I literally made a 2nd guardian for PVP

#

WivarnPVP

unique herald
#

ive been learning on tempest support +power spear virt

#

used to do it on necro rpr too

#

was strong but the flavour not as much for me

#

might use my guardian in pvp if luminary is fun

cloud narwhal
#

It's more of a curse than anything. It's a brand to show that I can't do group stuff with the rest.

shadow loom
#

its not a curse

#

if you just

#

you know

#

move

rocky sparrow
#

Just imagine

#

Suffer in na pug

#

Wouldn't it be lovely

cloud narwhal
#

Ah yes pay money to have worse ping

rocky sparrow
#

Exactly

shadow loom
#

pay money to play with friend

#

i would have play all my game in SEA

#

do i want to

rocky sparrow
#

No difference from people pay to pimp their ride

#

Into a useless trash of a vehicle

quasi halo
shadow loom
#

well i dont really care if friend play with me

#

i just exist

#

if ppl need me for something , i will join if im free

#

Last day to profit off gambling addicts liquidate your basic resources before the festival ends.

limber tangle
#

Sell all other mats too. The ones that can be traded in

#

And all t5 trophy like blood and fang

teal vault
#

yeah I sold all my basic resources that could be traded for boxes. Except orichalcum ore, because for some reason that is roughly the same price as it has been most of the year, looking back on GW2TP. I didn't know about t5 trophies though, why are those inflated?

limber tangle
#

because you can use those to 'craft' ectos

#

this row can be used to craft rares to salvage into ectos

#

the dust also went up in price in the next row

#

and you should buy a years supply of this

cloud narwhal
#

For charging?

teal vault
#

I noticed the quartz crystals so I bought like 2k of them

limber tangle
#

yea for charging

#

lucent crystals should also be cheap

#

and lucent motes

cloud narwhal
#

I know charged quartz are used for ley-line tools for guild halls but what else?

limber tangle
#

erm

#

skyscale food?

#

provisioner token

#

probably a few others

glacial locust
#

it has a bunch of potential uses

limber tangle
#

can also craft into sheet of ambrite for more provisioner token if you're desperate

teal vault
#

Only reason I noticed the crystal price was because I needed them for skyscale food

limber tangle
#

you should just charge one every day

#

oh right

#

volatile magic and eternal ice shard

#

convert those to t5 mats as well

#

best time to do it

teal vault
#

seems like the price spike is in the t4? (the tier just below the highest) mats. So I sold those. Wish I knew about it a week ago when they peaked.

limber tangle
#

oh I was wrong then

#

t4

#

wait

#

no

#

it's 5

#

unless you consider the top row 0

teal vault
#

Oh i can't count lol,

limber tangle
#

it's ok

#

I'm a programmer

#

we count from 0

teal vault
#

I think when I heard "T5" I just thought it was the highest tier by default because 5 is a nice set of tiers. I didn't really check that there were 6 tiers lol

limber tangle
#

there's 5 for lodestones

teal vault
#

This festival funded my Griffon plus another 150g or so. I heckin love festival of the four winds!

crystal cave
#

i think ecto prices stabilise over like a month after the festival ends

orchid rover
#

tardy ore

^second this, you can just tp to friend across the world to insta finish them

#

eotm is banned map can't use it 😔

rancid musk
#

eotm jp is the one with the like

#

pitch black part right

unique herald
#

better aetherium rates obtained

rancid musk
#

u guys should do the silly thing

#

where u keep the guild 1 under max

#

so u can double dip

unique herald
#

upgrading guild hall is fun

#

to me atleast

#

its like a rebuilding project

#

and reward is buffs for everyone

rocky sparrow
#

gotta play the game like dr stone / slime isekai

glacial locust
#

if i could get those graphics settings maybe i could get 60 fps on my old pc too

cloud narwhal
#

wc sorry XD

rancid musk
#

gw2 looked really good in that pic

#

need them settings for wvw

cloud narwhal
#

You saw nothing

glacial locust
#

might actually get frames

bright stump
#

With nvidia controller there are some hacks that you can do to override textures in gw2

#

to get essentially runescape graphics

#

it does remove a lot of details on the terrain so you can legit get stuck on rocks or little tree stumps here and there though

rancid musk
#

lol

#

my new world group did that

#

made wars super ez

#

LETSD FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

cloud narwhal
#

G FUCKING ZZZZZZZZZZZ

bright stump
#

all the chicken is gone

rancid musk
#

the spicy herb chicken

#

wasnt bad

#

the fucking pear shit

#

with glaical shards

unique herald
bright stump
#

i'm out of boxes

rancid musk
#

2 ass stones

#

🙂

bright stump
#

i did... 198,894

rancid musk
#

damn

bright stump
#

i had do some math lol

rancid musk
#

i would have done way more

#

but...

#

orrax

#

next year

bright stump
#

i don't even like most of these infusions

#

dragonvoid is so ugly lol

rancid musk
#

only infusion i want

#

is dragonvoid

#

LOL

bright stump
#

but i got the music boxes so hell yeah

#

lmao

#

but it kills all the armors

#

and fashion

#

turns into an oil slick

rancid musk
#

ye

#

its like reaper form

#

kinda

#

i fucks with it

digital bronze
#

GRATSS

rancid musk
#

atleast the remaning leggies i want are pretty much fucking free compared 2 this

#

LOL

#

this was so much money, even outside of the event cranking ecto prices

#

i guess its pretty new right

bright stump
#

next leggy is still 2 months away

#

plenty of time for things to settle before a new demand shock

rancid musk
#

give about 0 fucks about a aquabreather

#

my next 1 is vison, which is nearly finished ( gated on henge / time but i had not been doing it) / conflux (nearly finished as well, sold my coins for orrax)

#

then after that i prob do whole wvw set

#

armor set*

glacial locust
#

depending on what classes i end up playing in voe i might go for the aquabreather eventually, but i gotta get at least an armor set and rings first

rancid musk
#

my breather didnt even have stats till like 2 days ago

#

ring... maybe so i dont need 2 do double conflux

glacial locust
#

i was using level 50 green breathers on most of my characters lol, but the wvw exotics are easy enough i got them for the characters i've been playing

rancid musk
#

ye i had wvw 1

glacial locust
#

if voe doesn't end up doing a bunch of water content i probably won't bother with the breather but we'll see

rancid musk
#

i just forgot 2 stat it

#

🙂

bright stump
#

aquabreather will probably have on-land visual effects

glacial locust
#

i'm curious if the new ring will interact with coalescence/aurora/vision

rancid musk
#

im just rushing hte qol stuff, via things i enjoy

#

if i wanna swap from full zerk in wvw to mara

#

for 1 night

#

i can etc

bright stump
#

i mean even the underwater legendaries have on land effects, even before spear

glacial locust
rancid musk
#

like right now

bright stump
#

kamohali always had purple aura since vanilla

rancid musk
#

i WISH i was in mara over full zerk

#

i feel paper this week

#

amalgs hitting me for like 70% of my hp in 1 swing etc

#

need beta 2 end Waiting

bright stump
#

Amalg not even that much crazier than scrapper, which is wild

#

engie has really carzy numbers rn

rancid musk
#

its got naplam + the obliterate shit

#

sure naplam on everyone or w/e

#

but holy fuck that obliterate

bright stump
#

obliterate hurts for sure, just riskier to run and it's a long cast time

#

it's not healthy though for that much dmg on one button

rancid musk
#

voker kinda dumb as well
