crystal cave
#

hair is not sliders :^

left phoenix
#

Same shit different type of slider

crystal cave
#

also im p sure hair is also not rng

#

like it depends on your class

left phoenix
#

Ah that might be accurate

crystal cave
#

but if you pick same class/race you'll get teh same face/hair every time

left phoenix
#

I made 2 yesterday without changing anything at all. And they became different. Only noticed hair though

rancid musk
#

so question for smart people here

#

from a dumb bitch

crystal cave
#

thats why i thoguht this was default human ranger since it looks similar

rancid musk
#

someone finished their leggy starter key eailer (i know u can link it pre finish) and said they finished....

#

theres no way 2 mass farm dust outside of t0 spam

crystal cave
#

rancid musk
#

they havent been

#

only the achivement 10

#

maybe the meta/bosses? but the actual fractal events have bnot been

crystal cave
#

maybe they just giga grind the t0s

rancid musk
#

thats like

#

70 runs

#

500 dust 2 finish

left phoenix
#

Some people just unhinged

shadow loom
crystal cave
#

:v

#

get it from incursions ez

shadow loom
#

thats the thing

#

you get it and sell for such high price

crystal cave
#

idk if you can sell them

rancid musk
#

wait... can u sell the buyable 1?

crystal cave
#

pretty sure you cant

rancid musk
#

fuck ass game

crystal cave
#

it just unlocks the skin

#

theyre giving you free omni pot and legy glove ;_;

rancid musk
#

NOT ENOUGH

shadow loom
#

its weird because

rancid musk
#

I NEED A FULL SET OF ARMOR MINUS CHEST

crystal cave
#

if people were selling this shit theres no way it'd be 300 gold still

shadow loom
#

ugly

crystal cave
#

considering its been given away like candy

#

its an old blc skin

#

that just never made it back into the rotation

#

so its like incredibly exclusive

shadow loom
#

ppl really want to spend

#

on that ugly shit

crystal cave
#

i mean its not awful

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

thres only 22 on the market

shadow loom
#

well

#

time to do 1 or 2 fractal

crystal cave
#

or 100

#

and get the legy key ezclap

shadow loom
#

dont need that

rancid musk
#

if u do a few a day u get ur cap for the week ez

shadow loom
#

im just lazy to do the world boss

#

do i need those

crystal cave
rancid musk
#

not sure, iv done like 13 fracts this week and finished

crystal cave
#

maybe?

rancid musk
#

i didnt do any world boss

crystal cave
#

same

glacial locust
#

i think the achieves are the only way to get the dust, and cap out at 165 for this week

rancid musk
#

u get 10 points a day minimum (5 for achievement + 5 for doing the run)

#

then random acheivements u finish give more

glacial locust
#

oh there's the daily too hmm

rancid musk
#

then u can run more for just natty 5

#

then the weekly 1 for running 10 fractals gives 20

#

so thats 90 raw

#

actually more, itd be like 110? raw or something when u finish ur 10

shadow loom
#

tbh

#

idk where all the dust go

#

i cant find them

rancid musk
#

it auto eats

#

gatta look at achivement

shadow loom
#

49

rancid musk
#

see, thats not bad

#

how many have u run?

shadow loom
#

rancid musk

shadow loom
rancid musk

shadow loom
#

rancid musk
#

whatever you do, i hope it makes you happy

willow mist
#

theres a cute little turtle pet guaranteed from any black lion chest rn

#

theres a bunch of variants but i dunno how you get them (probably more black lion chests lmao)

glacial locust
#

idk for this one but usually the variants come from combining some of the previous "tier" of variant

crystal cave
#

is it like the shiba where it goes for like 4 gold

crystal cave
#

its 1.2 gold now

#

probs cuz the people doing excessive gamba brought it down

#

it used to be more expensive when they first came around

rancid musk
#

doesnt gw2f eff

#

show highest priced

#

1.6k chicken

#

😭

bright stump
#

I like chicken

crystal cave
#

wait theres a chicken for 1.6k gold

rancid musk
crystal cave
#

it says account bound

rancid musk
#

OH

crystal cave
#

and you get it from statuette vendor

rancid musk
#

tradeable

#

sorry

crystal cave
#

how do you get teh 1.6k valuation :^

rancid musk
#

idk

#

gw2 eff says

crystal cave
rancid musk
#

no clue lol

#

i need this...

#

when halloween event Waiting

willow mist
#

1.6k is a small price to pay for starry c*ck

#

the gw2 eff evaluations are always crazy, says my account is worth thousands of gold bc of some skins

crystal cave
willow mist
#

no way

glacial locust
rancid musk
#

i deserve this

#

how late into the month tho

willow mist
rancid musk
#

how about that

#

is it near the end

#

or all month

willow mist
#

well usually halloween is on the 31st

glacial locust
willow mist
#

im gonna go off vibes and say 4 weeks long because thats how long the fractal event is

crystal cave
#

it usually starts well before halloween and goes on till november

rancid musk
#

k ty

willow mist
#

guess the vibes were off

crystal cave
#

i have no clue exactly when

#

4 weeks might still be right :v

willow mist
#

LFG

#

vibes are back ON

crystal cave
#

im an aerodrome/mistlock sanctuary camper so event holiday event timings are superfluous to me

#

previous events

willow mist
#

i also camp mistlock, saw they added the quickplay banner to mistlock today

#

i will be leaving less

crystal cave
#

you could always quickplay from mistlock, and also every other map

#

you just need to manually get to the button in t1 fractal lfg

#

that reminds me i need to buy the mad king outfit

#

cuz its meta in fractals

rancid musk
crystal cave
#

https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Mad_King's_Outfit
beleive it or not this shit's actually meta in fractals

Double-click to consume. Double-click to wear this outfit. Outfits are full sets of clothing that hide other armor. This will not change individual armor pieces, and you will still receive your current armor stats.
— In-game description

#

game is p2w

rancid musk
#

why

#

explain

unique herald
crystal cave
#

so
without getting into too much detail

#

you can use it to get a dps boost

#

for the first phase of a fractal boss

#

its very silly

rancid musk
#

what in the fucck

willow mist
#

i think we're gonna need the too much detail

rancid musk
#

LOL

crystal cave
#

i dont wanna get banned

rancid musk
#

who would ban u

crystal cave
#

jk

willow mist
#

ok but HOW much dps are we talking about

rancid musk
#

type it and delete it

crystal cave
#

not much

rancid musk
#

then ill post

crystal cave
#

you proc the relic of the claw

#

and then swap to your normal dps relic

rancid musk
#

does costume disable on use or something

crystal cave
#

theres a specific skill you use

#

in costume brawl

rancid musk
#

ah

crystal cave
#

idk why it works

rancid musk
#

this lasts for 8 seconds man

crystal cave
#

but anet is very good at coding™

willow mist
#

ok so this gives you probaby 2% dmg for 8 seconds lol

crystal cave
#

so bless the devs at anet

willow mist
#

dont show a snowcrows member!

crystal cave
#

it literally says 7%

#

they definitely know

willow mist
#

yeah but how much is that over your normal dmg relic

#

which might be like 5%

rancid musk
#

u get both

#

so u get 7% for 8

crystal cave
#

you take your normal relic too

willow mist
#

oh they stack ok

rancid musk
#

but do u actually have all 8

crystal cave
#

you precast this effect before the fight starts

rancid musk
#

or is it like 6 or 7 by the time u hitting

crystal cave
#

yea its less than 8 seconds

rancid musk
#

this is some unhinged tech

#

but i respect it

willow mist
#

finally bladesworn can be good agaaain

crystal cave
#

it gets max value in a group where you can phase in like 4 seconds

#

but like hey

#

its tech

#

very funny tech that i hope they dont patch out

rancid musk
#

will be fixed in gw3

willow mist
#

incredibly impractical tech that can be good for people doing speedruns

#

if theres aa community for that in gw2

crystal cave
#

i mean ofc there is

glacial locust
#

discretize lol

crystal cave
#

thats how i learnt of this tech xD

willow mist
#

lol

rancid musk
#

just a silly little game

willow mist
#

somebody please show my fractal randos the hidden tech of pressing your buttons will make you do more than 5k dps 🙏

rancid musk
#

impossible

#

someone give me the tech of not ONLY getting cliffside as my random

#

people insta leave

#

and im about 2 be 1 of them

crystal cave
#

you should make sure they have weapons equipped if they're doing 5k dps

glacial locust
willow mist
crystal cave
willow mist
crystal cave
#

but t3s used to be called hell

#

because its filled with people who accidentally walked in since t1 and 2 have no mechanics

willow mist
#

had an absolute unit of a teamate come in core guardian rocking 1h sword and shield

glacial locust
#

rip

crystal cave
#

t4s is filled with vets who are too scared to do cms

willow mist
#

when do i unlock t4 lfg

glacial locust
#

oh now that i have the omnipot i can do t4s lol

willow mist
#

do i have to hit 75 personal level

crystal cave
#

jsut get enough ar

willow mist
#

i got 150

crystal cave
#

and ask someone froma guild youre in to let you join their lfg

#

or mapchat idk

willow mist
#

good comms

crystal cave
#

they dont even have to stick around, as soon as the first guy who actually has a personal level over 75 joins they can leave

#

the fractal level limitations kinda silly tbh

rancid musk
#

are cms even that much more smoke than t4s? (i have a persona llv of 24, i dont like fractals)

crystal cave
#

you cant even open lfg for t4 unless your personal level is high enough

glacial locust
#

the transition between levels is super annoying

willow mist
#

im at 70 and cant lfg them

crystal cave
glacial locust
#

i'm at 74 and the only way to get up is to queue for t4s, which i can't, or get a group to prog them which... is barely easier than queueing for t4 atm

crystal cave
#

but like its a different kind of experience

willow mist
crystal cave
#

most cm groups you get into will waltz through t4s even if theyre really bad at cms

willow mist
#

just pray for lonely tower to be a daily

rancid musk
#

but how much harder are they? like is there WAYYY more mechs and hp

crystal cave
#

i cant really give a comparision

rancid musk
#

i see

glacial locust
#

they should just make it so any fractal of a given tier progs your level, so you can progress by doing the dailies+recs you have access to

crystal cave
#

like the cm fractals are more health and mechanics than the nm versions

rancid musk
#

does ummm lonely tower have a cm?

crystal cave
#

but even the nm versions are supposedly harder than the fractals taht dont have any cms

#

yes

rancid musk
#

i will watch a video 🫡

willow mist
#

does anyone even understand lonely tower

crystal cave
#

yes

willow mist
#

all i know is eat those guys balls b4 he can

crystal cave
#

you can read the buff you get to see what the balls do

rancid musk
#

u feed buffs 2 1 guy

#

so he beats fight

#

or something

#

if that guy sucks u hate life

willow mist
#

i think if you get a seperate color it deletes your stacks

crystal cave
#

thats surprisingly accurate summary of lonely tower cm xD

willow mist
#

so you wanna stack 1 color

rancid musk
#

LOL

willow mist
#

i think red buffs dmg but idk any others

crystal cave
#

the fight is balanced around people getting their damage giga amped by the orbs

rancid musk
#

u play like

#

gimmick high damage class

#

like bladesworn right

#

then get buff

willow mist
#

yeah

rancid musk
#

and win

crystal cave
#

but the gluttony orb specifically

#

is hella overtuned

willow mist
#

i already play bladesworn so step 1 complete

#

im ready for cm

crystal cave
#

and if you have a guy on glut who knows what they're doing its like 160k dps for them

willow mist
#

damn

crystal cave
#

blsw is sadly not the bis on the fractal

#

scrapper stonks

#

uhm

rancid musk
#

oh is it scrapper?

crystal cave
#

everything else is like t2

rancid musk
#

i thought u legit just full loaded it all int othe orb guy

willow mist
#

yeah i just play bladesworn bc its really fun

glacial locust
#

kind of weird with how much fractals like fast phases and burst

rancid musk
#

big dam class = best

crystal cave
#

willbender takes the glut and is like the only guy doing the fight

willow mist
#

i have a guardian too

crystal cave
#

cuz hes doing 160k dps

willow mist
#

and need to learn willbender

#

is it condi willbender?

crystal cave
#

its a special build that maximises hits per second

willow mist
#

oh

#

wouldnt vindictor be insane for that too

crystal cave
#

wb

#

everythign else is at least 40% dps loss

"what class you play" "oh i main gluttony willbender"

crystal cave
#

its kinda silly

#

you gotta have the build specifically for the fight sadly

rancid musk
#

thats funny

#

i only did lonely tower once

crystal cave
#

fractal cms are in the territory where you want to be able to play at least 2 classes

rancid musk
#

and i just assumed thats how ur supposed 2 do that fight btw

#

because that bitch was LONG

#

and no one took orbs

willow mist
#

yeah if you dont take the orbs the boss sucks them up and starts healing a ton

crystal cave
#

if you take orbs of multiple colours they cancel out

#

so the guy on red orbs only takes red ones

#

healers usually take blue+green to cancel them out intentionally

shadow loom
crystal cave
#

and the wb takes orange

#

if you have these 3 guys who know the fight, the other 2 can be actual potatoes

#

as long as they dont steal the orbs you need, you get the win

willow mist
#

yeah i assume having a chad run this wb spec will carry

crystal cave
#

i think i have a log where we jsut 4 manned it

willow mist
#

but its still doable without it right

crystal cave
#

yea

#

its like +1 min on the kill timer

willow mist
#

100k+ dps is very funny though

crystal cave
#

you only see it on self stats it never shows on logs :<

#

i think the way it is
t1->this specific willbender build
t2->normal condi willbender
t3->catalyst and scrapper

#

for this role

#

also t3->my super cursed glut alac renegade

#

that no one in their right mind should play

willow mist
#

fire

crystal cave
#

and that should be what you expect if you have a scrapper or a catalyst

#

a proper glut willbender immediately gets you to a max of 3 min 30 with possibility of going sub 3 if they know what theyre doing

#

median kill time for context is 4 min 12

willow mist
#

so just any way of doing tons of hits

#

including DoTs

crystal cave
#

the fight heavily relies on knowing how the orbs interact

#

sorta

#

theres some skills that just dont proc glut

#

rule of thumb is no prijectiles

#

except the exceptions ofc ourse

#

cuz whynot

#

anet is very good at coding™

willow mist
#

it just works

crystal cave
#

the cursed alacren works because you have a bunch of different lifesteal amplifying mods

#

and glut counts as lifesteal

glacial locust
crystal cave
#

relic of atrocity is basically a must

#

the willbender build says "screw my personal dps" and takes honor for increased symbol uptime and the symbol on heal skill

#

the reason willbender is so broken tho is the interaction between permeating wrath and the willbender f1

willow mist
#

yeah i see the guide says it procs it 48 times lol

cloud narwhal
#

Man I should try other classes at some point

crystal cave
#

well thats part of it

#

the other part is that every time you hit any enemy while the f1 passive is on, it does an aoe burst of damage

#

so if you have like 4 enemies in one spot

#

each hit is now 5 hits

#

main hit+ 4 bursts, one from each ad that you cleave

#

this is also why condi willbender is really strong in fights where you can cleave ads near the boss

willow mist
#

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rDqUKi0zRI&t=3s yeah this pov just has a big cloud of hit numbers above the boss lmfao

sry for terrible quality, obs was trolling me somehow, fixed for nextime :))

▶ Play video
crystal cave
#

yep

#

2:36 is a pretty good kill

#

thats a greedier build than what i run

#

but the idea is there

rancid musk
#

this is silly

crystal cave
#

you drop purging flames +soj+3 symbols

willow mist
#

sometimes you just hit for ALL the numbers

rancid musk
#

i need 2 smuggle this buff into wvw

#

HEHEHEHEHE

crystal cave
#

hit 12 times in 2 seconds

#

permeating wrat makes that 60

#

and the way glut works is each stack means 1 hit

#

so at 18 stacks thats 18*60 hits in those 2 seconds

#

very fun

#

so you can see why they max hits/second instead of dps xD

#

to get to 160k damage

#

fun fact guard pistol 3 also has this feature called ignition

#

which basically give you an extra hit everytime you hit something thats in your symbol

#

with a 0.25 second icd

#

its

#

really stupid

#

and theres a reason why willbender is just a lightyear and a half ahead of the other classes at this role :p

glacial locust
#

maybe i should take my guard out of retirement lol

crystal cave
#

if you wanna do 100 cm then ye

#

its perfect for carrying pugs

#

and also a perfect excuse to afkdps the rest of the fractals

#

but yea circling back to the earlier question

#

fractal cms have more mechanics and are generally harder than nm fractals

#

but theres also more planning and thought going into builds that people run at this level

#

so in the end its not actually that much harder

rancid musk
#

i dont think i like cm gw2 content because of this

#

all the stuff seems 2 be

crystal cave
#

but it is at a level where you can get left behind if you only intend to play 1 class

rancid musk
#

"play this gimmick build 2 cheese the fight"

crystal cave
#

thats not true

rancid musk
#

is it not like that?

crystal cave
#

this fight can be done without gimmick build, its jsut slower

rancid musk
#

is febe not the same

crystal cave
#

and this fight is also the worst offender

rancid musk
#

bring 8x this 1 insane class

#

because they do damage and have portal

crystal cave
#

no

rancid musk
#

then bring supports

crystal cave
#

you can play what you want in febe

rancid musk
#

cm?

#

lcm

crystal cave
#

ye

#

yea

rancid musk
crystal cave
#

well supports are set in stone

#

cuz ports

#

but dps honeslty bring yoru favourite thing

rancid musk
#

i thought most people just full stacked for it

#

be it scrappers or virt

crystal cave
#

that was before flower strat became a thing

rancid musk
#

i see

crystal cave
#

i play weaver on febe cm

#

i know ive seen atleast 1 bladesworn

rancid musk
#

might have 2 dig my fingies back into looking at this content 2 see if it is intrests me

crystal cave
#

its only the healers who are kinda set in stone

rancid musk
#

all the logs i saw ere just fully stacks

#

soulbeasts

#

virts

#

etc

crystal cave
#

are you only seeing records or smth

willow mist
#

well if its logs its prolly people sweating to the max right

rancid musk
#

idk maybe

crystal cave
#

everyone has logs

#

but record logs tend to stack bis class

#

cuz why not

#

idk if virt is even bis nowadays

rancid musk
#

i honest have no clue if i was looking at speed run logs or just normal

#

i think i just grabbed them from a random clear video

glacial locust
#

just make friends to do it with and you can run whatever you want

crystal cave
#

people who upload their clears tend to be more tryhard

#

most people dont even record it

rancid musk
#

this looks more normal

crystal cave
#

this is nm

crystal cave
#

idk if 9k dps p1 is making cm dps check im gonna be completely real

rancid musk
crystal cave
#

XD

rancid musk
#

🙂

crystal cave
#

o hey thats my fren

#

the ren

rancid musk
#

just a random log lol

crystal cave
#

i play fracs with him xd

rancid musk
#

this is one of the ones i was looking at b4

crystal cave
#

hes the one who taught me everythign i know about glut tech

#

cqherald is so bait omg

#

playing cqherald makes me wanna die even if its required for the fight like greer cm

#

actually specially on greer cm but that's a different story

rancid musk
#

is the ummm

#

raid mount baleor a lot different than the convergance fights for them

crystal cave
#

uhh

#

sorta

rancid musk
#

neat

crystal cave
#

the mechanics actually do things?

#

idk if you can die in the convergences unless you stand in the one shots

rancid musk
#

i assume the greer adds do shit

#

rather than jujst stand there

crystal cave
#

yea

rancid musk
#

and exist

crystal cave
#

pretty much

rancid musk
#

neat ok

crystal cave
#

peopel are actually very bad at greer

glacial locust
#

i saw a lot of complaints about that raid

crystal cave
#

its kinda funny cuz cm groups have the movement and stuff down to a t

#

and its very clinical

#

but almost any greer nm group you go to is like a complete shitshow

#

cuz people dont really know the best way to maximise dmg uptime and minimise running around time

#

despite it being a cornerstone of the cm strat

#

its one of the fights where if you know how cm works nm folds like twig

rancid musk
#

im excited 2 see how they change raids or w/e in voe

#

rn im on the fence if i care enough

glacial locust
#

...i'm still waiting on any new stuff announcements that aren't about the homestead or elite specs

crystal cave
#

they said they were gonna rework the raid and strike lfg and kinda combine them right?

#

thats why we ahve the quickplay beta?

#

also holy shit i need to start packing i have a plane in a day and im not even close to done

#

have a good day

glacial locust
#

are they going to moderate raid sellers? i thought that was the big problem with raid lfg

crystal cave
#

also pls do frac cms

#

eh they kinda just exist minding their own business

glacial locust
#

no don't be cc'ed by discord go pack lol

crystal cave
#

true

#

o/

rancid musk
#

i low key wanna swap off necro

#

2 warrior

#

for wvw

#

and pve

glacial locust
#

i need a gif of that antiquary skritt skill lol

willow mist
rancid musk
#

heckkkk no

willow mist
#

bladesworn pve is so fun

glacial locust
#

i thought about doing power spb for pve but then i thought "isn't this just reaper?"

rancid musk
#

LOL

#

i wanna go spelbreaker

#

hahahahaha

willow mist
#

i tried spellbreaker i think i just dont understand it

#

i also kinda wanna try berserker but i dont wanna shorten my keyboards lifespan by 4 years

rancid musk
#

i wann a go spellbreaker for wvw* idk what id play in pve

willow mist
#

theyre all good in pve

#

berserker is pressing your burst key a lot, especially if ur running the quickness providing build

#

i think bladesworn is tons of fun just because of how unique it is, but if you love weapon swapping often you probably wont like it that much

#

i think spellbreaker is kinda similar to berserker but instead of pressing burst as much youre pressing signets lol

rancid musk
#

do people not play the ummm heal ala scourge build anymore?

#

i dont c it on this list

glacial locust
#

didn't it fall out of favor after they nerfed the trait that was the main reason it was ever taken?

rancid musk
#

idk lol

#

transfusion?

#

i thought that only got changed in pvp

glacial locust
#

idk if they changed it back but back when i played around the nerf they killed it everywhere

cloud narwhal
#

Question. In what ways has power creep happened in this game?

glacial locust
#

average dps has gone way, way up, 35k used to be a high benchmark

pale flint
rancid musk
#

well.. i think she fell out of the "meta"

#

its prob fine

#

i just notice its gone

pale flint
#

the only metas i need have drops

rancid musk
cloud narwhal
#

What changes did they make to have dps skyrocket? is the new(er) elite specs

glacial locust
#

heal scourge had a very specific place in the meta as being good for carrying new groups, which isn't to say it's bad just that you probably won't find it in speedrun groups because other healers offer things better suited to that style of play

rancid musk
#

ok

glacial locust
rancid musk
#

not stinky tier, not god tier, simply good enough for all normal content "all raids/ t4 fracts" etc?

pale flint
#

so itll be fine for my t4/cm fractyals

rancid musk
#

seems like u might not use it in cms

#

but thats because they are weird

pale flint
#

oh ok

#

i need to do some cms sometime. i wanna prog my backpack

rancid musk
#

do u need cms for backpack?

pale flint
#

some yeah

rancid musk
#

oh

willow mist
pale flint
#

its mainly just specific achievements and drops tho

glacial locust
#

idk how it has changed but one of the reasons heal scourge was out of meta back then was it didn't have good buff uptime compared to e.g. druid (which i think is also out of favor these days), which might be a problem for pug cm groups

#

the cm for ad inf probably won't be much of a problem if you just post an lfg for it... they let me get it somehow lol

#

i vaguely remember those ones not being what people usually mean when they say "cm" but idr the specifics

#

oh yea because you can do most of them in t3 lol

pale flint
#

ah its ez then

#

but yeah ill just go in with my friends and pug the last 2 spots since we're doing to together

#

that'll probably wait for another weke or so tho. there's quickplay to grind

#

i sitll need like 100 more for 3rd recursion

glacial locust
#

yea i think the mai trin cm is the only t4 you need to do, and that's a generous timer these days

rancid musk
#

ur already pushing third?

glacial locust
#

idk what all counts for "t4 + cms" these days but it used to be 98 99 100 cm

rancid musk
#

thats so many fracts

pale flint
#

im barely pushing tbh. i just did it whyilst vibing wiht my friends in vc

rancid musk
#

thats like 20+ fracts

pale flint
#

more, probably

rancid musk
#

actgually way more

pale flint
#

i got like 350ish

rancid musk
#

like 60 or 50

glacial locust
#

my guess is the upcoming weeks will have a lot more achievements that will speed it up

pale flint
#

but you also get a bunch form dailies/weekly/the open world stuff

rancid musk
#

open world stuff gives 20?

pale flint
#

and i took multiple people around to do the metas

rancid musk
#

10 for the events 10 for the bosses

#

i dont believe u get dust every time

#

only for achievement

pale flint
#

im not sure tbh!

glacial locust
#

yea it was annoying to not get any for the incursions outside the achievements

rancid musk
#

im just wondering if i even need 2 do the 2nd and 3rd tiers

pale flint
#

i was doing it for the fun of the game and to help my friends tbh x) im an officer in a guild so i like to hang out and help people

rancid musk
#

i will wait for the achievement to tell me 2

willow mist
#

you for sure will have to

rancid musk
#

LET ME COPE

willow mist
#

you get the leggy starter kit too

glacial locust
#

i mean you'll need to i'm sure, but there'll certainly be more achieves to speed it up if you aren't already doing qp fractals

pale flint
#

itll be ez to girnd more for yall tho. wiht your daily/weekly and the extra tiers of achievements coming

willow mist
#

its worth!

rancid musk
#

I DONT WANNA DO CLIFFSIDE ANYMORE

#

IM SICK OF CLIFFSIDE

willow mist
#

THE CLIFF CALLS TO YOU

rancid musk
#

IF I DO ANOTHER IM GOING TO HANG MY SELF FROM THAT FUCKING GIANT

pale flint
#

BUT ITS EZ IN THE EVENT! EVERYBODY HOLD A HAMMER FOREVER AND SPEEDRUN

rancid musk
#

ima be honest

willow mist
#

im hanging myself from that statues ***

rancid musk
#

i dont know wh7at type of giga brains u guys get queued with

#

but im the only fucking person

#

picking up a hammer

#

its the same as a normal cliffside for me

pale flint
#

i usually go in with 2-3 friends, so they at least know the basics

rancid musk
#

i type "grab a hammer, stay here hit mob etc"

#

an d what do they do

#

follow me

#

like chickens!

willow mist
#

i havent gotten cliffside with raandos yet 🙂

glacial locust
#

also you can do the specific fractal ones in t1

willow mist
#

i only got it i think a few times when we were doing a ton of runs as a guild

pale flint
#

the classic killing all the adds before hammer cna touch them and cliffside taking 20+ minutes

bright stump
#

my guild been doing 2 parties of 3 man runs

#

and cycling alts/people through the last 2 open slots

willow mist
#

ohh i was about to say, i didnt think you could run with only 3 people

bright stump
#

so basically complete it far faster than normal since you can join fractal groups part way

willow mist
#

even though its probaably easy

bright stump
#

well it's not quick play.

cloud narwhal
#

@unique herald babe wake up it's time for your daily press the button

bright stump
#

it's just blast through it lol

#

yeah

#

you just need the t1's

#

and to complete,you don't need to participate

unique herald
#

Will hit it when i get home

bright stump
#

Half the time since i play mesmer I run ahead to drop portals to skip further ahead lol

#

a lot of template swap abuses as well to get stealths, etc

rancid musk
cloud narwhal
#

I'm not against it. 🙂

pale flint
#

you cna queue as 3 in quickplay just fine

#

it was bugged a bit at the start, but any gorup size works fine

#

ive gone in as solo 2, 3, 4, and 5

#

all good

#

the only thing i dont like about quickplay is that the only options at the end are "leave the party" or "leave the instance with your party + whatever randoim decides to tag along and queue you in without you being able to say or do anything"

willow mist
#

yeah the kidnapping is a weird choice

pale flint
#

we kept having to leave the instance, re-party, then requeue

willow mist
#

why not just have a vote to start like there is in actual fractals already

bright stump
#

we didn't want to quick play

#

we wanted to keep the last 2 party slots open so we can bring friends in to get the reward

pale flint
#

yeah, or a third option: ditch these losers and leave with your friends

bright stump
#

so 3 people ran the fractal until the boss

#

then brought in 2 people to finish

#

meanwhile, the 2nd gruop of 3 people were doing a different run

#

so then those 2 people left our party, goes to the other 3 man party

#

that way our alts can get the rewards/geared up lol

#

you only need to run quickplay a few times to get the dust/achievements finished

pale flint
#

yeah but its easy, fast, and varies up what youre grinding if you do quickplay

#

plus easier

rancid musk
#

I JUST REALIZED

#

HOLY FUCK POLK

#

WE R FREE

#

FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

#

FROM MAG CRINGE

bright stump
#

lmao

#

idc i've been on silksong

pale flint
#

id love it if there was an option to do quickplay in dailies. kill 2 birds wiht 1 stone

rancid musk
#

anyone cringe here?

bright stump
#

none of those guys will be big enough for you guys

rancid musk
#

also... im sorry 2 the guys in stal guild wvw team

#

ur life about 2 be bad next week

pale flint
#

its ok my life is already bad

rancid musk
#

it can get worse

#

trust me

willow mist
#

i think i clicked to join the wvw team randomly and havent q'd up once

bright stump
rancid musk
#

i didnt even feel like i won, when we won

bright stump
#

and my guildies and I would rather not play fractals if we can avoid it lol, so anything to essentially blast through

pale flint
#

damn i just realised that thanks to this event my main is only missing 1 bag slot now

#

damn

rancid musk
#

did u get both already?

pale flint
#

yeah and the one form the store in the bundle

bright stump
#

the store bundle is based af

#

like that bundle should have been what is included as incentive in an expac

#

not as this random thing that showed up

pale flint
#

so im 9/10 on bag space now

bright stump
#

time to get the 32 slotters

pale flint
#

yeah one day

bright stump
#

I think I'm at like 9 characters fully 32 slotted out

#

and it's... not worth it

pale flint
#

but i mean for now, having 184 inventory slots is fine

willow mist
#

but, the box could always be bigger

#

more squares in your inventory

pale flint
#

i have like 25 slots taken by forever items, and i only get close to filling if i open my gear before selling my junk/mats

bright stump
#

it's not like we get loot in wvw anyway

rancid musk
#

i need more space personally

bright stump
#

not in any meaningful amount anyway

willow mist
rancid musk
#

my stuff fells crowded

glacial locust
#

the only time i've had trouble with 100 slots is when i try to open unids

rancid musk
#

i need another 20

bright stump
#

slowly unlocking every shared inventory >>>>

#

it's a game changer honestly

willow mist
#

yeah shared slots are way better for sure

rancid musk
#

and idk... post wvw night when i got 90 different types of boxes and like 100+ bags

#

and 30 stacks of random shit

#

i have a panic attack
