The problem with paragon is there's nothing you can do to save the retards in this game from themselves. I can dish out healing, condi cleanse, boons, stability, aegis, and it's never enough to prevent 10 blue diamonds appearing every time a basic bitch meta boss does its obviously telegraphed aoe slam attack. Hammerhart twins are a cosmic joke, I can't believe anyone can go down on this fight.

The nice thing about paragon is that it makes me more effortlessly immortal than almost any other spec, but what's the point?

Let's analyze all the things wrong with this post.

>i would rather constantly bitch
What is "constant"? Is every post in the thread about this topic? Are no other posts being made? Hardly.

>into the void
Well this is demonstrably false, as you are responding so by that very nature it is not "into the void". In fact the message is being received quite reliably, it seems.

>than do a thing once
It has already stated to have been done once. Logic seems to be eluding your grasp.

>That is evident
After three errors, there's hardly room to call anything evident. In short, this "QED" is all "ED" (erectile dysfunction cause your argument is impotent lol) and no "(I)Q".

>>549906021
Listen anon, buying HoT and getting LW3 as patch content while farming both the expansion money and shop dosh? That's fine.
Buying PoF and getting LW4 as patch content while farming both the expansion money and shop dosh? That's fine.
Producing more "free" content instead of doing the above with the whole expansion + "free" patch cycle? That's retarded, you can't coast on patch stuff forever when you need funding to produce shit.

It's likely part of the reason why they went from EoD with no patch content to the tiny expansions that get finished eventually, because they fucked up with LW5 and it cascaded further down the line, hence why EoD doesn't have patch content and new expansions are 25 dollarydoos while they eventually finish the rest of the expansion.

Lanterns are account-wide as long as each character has done regular map completion, so you can either just switch to the character that did the campaign and grab that one lantern, or worst-case scenario do map completion on that character and then you'll be able to get a second gift as soon as you can grab the lantern.

there are games already with those sliders, but the fats are a meme. the one anon had it right, the armor designs and models would never fit on unconventional body types. it's still funny to me though, using buzzwords like "body positivity" instead of just asking anet to make a slider for potbellies and triple chin beard necks, just like the OP probably looks.

You do you, friend
>>
>>549960669
I've been using Scepter+Dagger on Fire and those cooldowns are intrinsically pretty fast so it still works decently for me, maybe Water or Earth might not have so much of an issue since they aren't spamming out moves as fast with Quickness and get quicker cooldowns with Alacrity instead. So you basically have to choose between having better damage with Fire/Air while feeling worse vs. less with Earth but it feels better, unless you're in a group giving you all the buffs then none of it matters anyway since you might as well use Familiar's Focus anyway. I still think it was a dumb change even if it didn't completely ruin the playstyle.

thankfully there is a solution! by playingnwvw and doing eithe rthe gift of battle reward track or any of the reward tracks which give a box that contains a bunch of random mats plus a choice of either a specific armor piece that npcs for 2.5g or some fucking special material shits, all of them gives 2 clovers per completed track

It never ends. You'll feel free as a bird when you expand it again, then before long it's filled up and you're cursing and swearing at it like a sailor. GW2 has problems of scale, you just can't ramp up production enough to deal with storage issues. Once you start salvaging packs of this shit, you're going to be spilling into bank tabs no matter how many material expanders you buy.

Uhhh so I just decided to buy an extra garden plot for the hell of it and...... what the fuck? Really?
>>
>>549994250
honestly better layout than the one you get in bear homestead if you have only 2 plots
>>
>>549997683
yeah but why are the nodes scattered around
it should have unlocked four in one plot, instead it just randomly spread them out
>>
>>549994250
What's the point of the garden plots? Do you make gold with them or something?
>>
>>549999418
Meh I just make pink food for myself, mostly cilantro. 4 is plenty, just thought it might be fun to do more at once. I wouldn't have done it if I'd known it was gonna scatter the plots around and look all sloppy.

I thought knockdowns were the worst shit, no, it turns out the worst shit is enemies that leap 500 years through you for no reason, going out of range of all attacks and then forcibly leashing themselves so they become invulnerable.

getting back into this game and enjoying the pvp. I do gotta ask though, what keeps people going? is it just cosmetics? how do you even get cosmetics without spending money?

I tried WvW yesterday, and while it was fun it was kinda confusing. I just picked a random team (blue), and took capture points when possible and pvp. any good general starting out resources?
>>
>>549981064
Honestly 500 is pretty great, means I can sit on all my map materials from "Return to X" achievements without needing to do anything extra.
>>
>>550015968
wvw is something you gotta take in slowly by exposure if you read some 999 page guide its just gonna put you off. join Eternal Battlegrounds during prime time and look for a commander squad you can join and just follow the horde so you get a feel for map objectives and what people normally do. once you have a general feel for the mode you can check https://metabattle.com/wiki/WvW_Guides#General and pick specific things about wvw you want to learn more about

this. having too many expanders plays into hoarding behavior: any extra mats start spreading into the bank tabs and become a cancer in the account. have fewer material storage upgrades allows for having enough of something and it's stocked away to carry you over some crafting for a bit. i have 1000 material storage and i have 2 solid bank tabs of obsidian sharts. total hoarding behavior and massive autism. i just don't know what to do with all of them. oh! i have an idea! buy another bank slot for stacks of obsidian sharts. i suppose if i keep them long enough, anet will make a gobbler for obsidian sharts and i will be rich.

>having too many expanders plays into hoarding behavior
Ive been too lazy to point it oit, so thank you for doing it for me. 500 is the sweet spot that lets you build up mats wothout drowning in them. The bloodstone dust/dragonite ore/emphyral shard gobblers can process roughly 500 of each mat every day, so by the time one fills up i can just process them and be good until the next day. More space just means you have to deal with more mats when it inevitably fills up

Literally built for pinning into a perfect hold but suddenly your hand accidentally slips on his fur to his crotch onto the bikini well enough to get a good feel for the shape of its contents and the momentary shock is enough to reverse the hold onto you for a swift victory, and afterwards as you're putting your robe back on in the preparation locker room you turn around to see him leaning against the door frame with both arms above head before he delivers a "mmmm... good match" in a with a low growl-y tone from the back of his throat that could almost be mistaken for a purr after which he gives you a fast wink and heads back to his own prep area

just hover your mouse over what the masteries do or look it up on the wiki which is better for you to skip. which is more important to you, jackal travel thru the butthole looking portals and get other cool stuff for collections? or spin around in the air for a split second on the beetle?

Definitely faster horizontally than skyscale and unless you need raw vertical height from a stand still handles everything you'd ever need height wise too.
There is a timeline where the Beetle doesn't have use the entire endurance bar to boost where it's a god tier mount though. Just not ours.

I've been playing this for a month and it fucking sucks. Leveled to 80 through the terrible disney story and bought secrets of obscure and it's even more of a chore than the vanilla game and the flying mounts are SHIT. The world is cool and the gameplay is decent for an mmo but it could have been so much better if it wasn't made by clueless retards. Hurrhurr we have no original ideas so let's just put Hermaeus Mora from skyrim in the game and hope noone notices. SHIT. I enjoy the gameplay so got the expansion to get elite spec so I could ignore the cheesey story and play some pvp but the endless awful awful dialogue and lore is killing me. Who wrote this shit? It's a fucking shitty mess. AHHHHHHhhhh fuck

and then you get ganked by a chad like me when getting distracted by your gay porn on the other screen and falling behind your squad and can't fight for shit.
the most faggot of them all are support zerg firebrands. those pathetic excuse for a player don't even get any feedback for using their skills. it literally feels like nothing happens, yet they sit there in their blob, wearing their shiny faggot minstrel gear, following their commander like good obedient little sluts playig the role of the fluffer

What is the reward for the holiday event? I have just been selling snowflakes since I'm new and need gold. Why are people buying them for so much?
>>
>>550132845
>Why are people buying them for so much?
because anet is run by filthy jews and n****rs. buying literally anything from the event costs 10 snow diamonds. but snow diamonds cost 16.5g right now which is 'expensive' and makes retard brains panic so they think that buying snowflakes is better but 1 snow diamond = 1000 snowflakes which was about 5g but appears to be balancing out at 4g making it cost the exact same amount. or they buy wintersday gift boxes which 250 may not give 250 snowflakes but costs 9g per 2560 stack, resulting in more money being paid than just buying diamonds.

basically the skins from wintersday cost a retarded amount of a currency that's a pain in the ass to collect compared to other holidays
>>
>>550132845
>Why are people buying them for so much?
Compared to candy corn, snowflakes drop a lot less but the vendors require just as many mats as the Halloween ones
>>
>>550132845
The main stuff driving up prices on them are the armor skins from the NPC labeled [Wintersday Rewards]. They're just Christmas-themed skins like a sweater, mittens, etc, but they cost 15,000 Snowflakes worth of Snow Diamonds each. There's also sets of weapons that are the same but 10,000 Snowflakes worth.

The prices are pretty fucked up and I wouldn't worry about it as a new player besides doing some of the weekly/annual stuff to get things for free. Selling Snowflakes is as good a use for them as any.

better to think that new mmos will never be the quality as mmo's from 2000-2011.

My fondest mmorpg memories are from Tibia 2000-2005, terrible game but the community made it. The guild politics and wars, the lighthearted RP, the constant feeling of danger from PKs, the forum drama, the endless mind-numbing grind for loot. One of those you had to be there at the time games.

oh to be a kid again..

mmo's cant attract zoomers/gen alpha, it's basically millenials and their parents. the world is so shit that unless you're an addict, you just don't have time to invest into a grindy game. so everything is a poorly made scam designed to make a ton of money for the company.

players want new mmos that are like there old mmos but that just isnt really an option anymore. it's very much a "you think you do but you don't"/grass is greener type of thing. I tried corepunk briefly before the devs enshittified it so much that it's unplayable to all but the addicts. I just went back to GW2, hadn't really left. was just bored.

for us people, best you can do is to take off the rose tinted glasses, look at the things you have and appreciate them because GW2/wow/RS could shutdown tomorrow and you WONT find another game like them

You need to do the SotO and JW story to unlock the new weapons and use other elite spec weapons freely. I'd just follow the story starting with SotO.
The VoE elite specs are available immediately, you can grab enough hero points to unlock everything from HoT/PoF/EoD if you want to play them now without starting VoE proper.

Easy counter argument here, there's a reason why GW2 only became "third place" after everyone else either shuttered or fumbled so hard they lost their player base.
It's simple to say you're a top 10 MMO and sit in 5-10th place the majority of your life span then claim 3rd place when WoW shoots itself several times in a row, XIV stabs itself in the lung, Lost World is literally joever, and everyone moves on to play / wait for the next thing into the MMO with no sub fee.

Yes GW2 has been woke forever, yes it's absolutely suffered for it, and yes it absolutely still does suffer because of it.
This is easily verifiable by going to take a quick check on the GW2 stats website and understanding more people are playing OSRS than JW or VoE.
>>
>>550151360
Not at all the point, but you're severely overestimating the amount of people who were/are turned off from GW2 because of that specifically instead of more substantial things like, I don't know, inconsistent development and the game itself.
>>

SotO is "easier," but it honestly feels like a trap because you want to unlock the PoF skyscale mastery eventually anyway. If you have both the PoF skyscale mastery and the SotO skyscale mastery you get bonus effects, and the only way to unlock the PoF mastery is to do the PoF skyscale collection, whereas the SotO mastery is unlocked through the story.
The most annoying part of the PoF way are the map currencies you need, but you can easily get them now through the Return to X achievements (e.g. https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Return_to_Daybreak).

Whatever you decide on, buy 300 Quartz Crystals right now and convert them to Charged Quartz Crystals at a hero point. You'll need 12 of them to craft later, but you can only do the conversion once a day.
>>

and that one time, they decided to suck off a bunch of dimensional faggots from the last dragon cycle and forming a retarded political faction and f allout that is still causing problems in the modern day?

truly humans in gw2 are the pinnacle of competence and deserving of anything they touch.

its never coming. NCsoft is relaunching wildstart.
GW3 is literally just a cope for players who are upset with the way certain things in the game are done.
>this is bad, in GW3 it will be better
there's no point in making a new mmo from the ground up, refer to here: >>550139157
The best thing that GW3 could be is what overwatch 2 is to overwatch 1 is, a 0.5 update with a better engine and cleaned up code.

anything more than that will never happen
as for the rest of your post.
you need to unlock the specializations and other skills to get better enjoyment. you're only gonna have the most basic enjoyment of a class at level 10.

if you want, you can go into the pvp lobby (crossed swords on topbar) which lets you play with level 80 skills and especs that you have and features that you have via expacs you own. so you can play around with classes on the golems and enemy test npcs there to get a feel for classes

People are delusional if they think now is the current time to launch a new MMO. It's absolutely the worst fucking time to be a newcomer in the industry and no company with an already established consumer base is going to eat the risk and massive amount of investment required to get up to snuff with their competition.
It makes far more sense to update a game that is doing just fine, especially since GW1 and GW2's engines is optimized to run on 2005 hardware for peanuts in server costs.

the human gods are probably like greek demigods/heroes. wherever they came from they were likely the pinnacle of their kind, enough that there's only a handful of them and with enough power/force of will to take over chunk of the mists to serve as 'domains' like grenths, melandrus and baltahzars. or abaddon/kormirs library

>>
>>550175609
They were some of the original humans that fucked off from a dying world (Earth) to explore this new fangled mists thing that they figured out. Most of them died except for like 4-5 who became deity tier entities suffused with insane levels of magic. How or why, we don't know. They should have died like all the others or turned into mist demon things.

Once they figured out how to control being 'gods' they went back and took willing followers from the dying world and eventually settled on yeeting them into Tyria. They didn't even go down themselves until later, that's why the initial human touchdown in cantha was just a bunch of bewildered magically inept people that could barely survive until some of them figured out primitive ancestor magic.

As they grew up and started having generations in this new world it slowly started to accept them and they got better with magic up until the human gods did show up proper and super juiced them. This was roughly about after the fall of the elder races and the previous dragon rise, so humans were posed to become a high race in this new generation and they found success and spread across all of Tyria.

Other races have been playing catch up to humans since and while humanity ended up fractured, lost their divine providence, and generally became reduced in modern times they're still everywhere on the face of Tyria and quite strong. They're still potent magic users even without their gods indicating that Tyria considers them natives at this point and they're wily survivalists. Even when they're dead they're persistent spooks. They're sticking around.

Then there's also the hanging threat that their 'gods' might come back since most of them made it off of Tyria. Or that was bullshit and they're happy to just fuck off and leave humans to their own devices. We'll see.
>>
>>550183819
They literally are the shittiest thing ever though. They don't have any weapons on them, they just look like a bunch of flying walnuts and apparently are just used as troop carriers. Because otherwise, why wouldn't they have taken Ebonhawke already?
Unless you mean the ones in IBS but that has its own suite of retardation. The Charr are just really badly written in GW2, it makes zero sense that they'd be having so much trouble with a bunch of lizards that get killed by cannon fire as well as a human fort that has nothing more than catapults, longbows, and maybe some captured field guns.
Base GW2 gets complimented a lot for its worldbuilding but this remains the most idiotic thing.
>>
>>550184493
gw2 is one of the only games that make humans pretty cool lore wise
>>
>>550185216
that's because humans in the GW franchise are basically those "humans are space orcs" greentexts.
>>
My mnorn is gay and he plays one cause charrs look weird with some gear
>>
>>550184595
>Because otherwise, why wouldn't they have taken Ebonhawke already?
Because the first prototype was being made shortly before/around the same time as the peace treaty, so the charr never had the opportunity to use them against Ebonhawk. Same with the prototype submarine in the planes of Ashford. Essentially, the writers made it so all of the Charr's battlefield changing technological breakthroughs conveniently happened after the truce was made.
>>
>>550185216
A lot of it is grandfathered from GW1 in that it was exclusively human-centric, but I agree. Credit where it's due in GW2 they did good on picking out the non-human playable races and building them up. Generally.
>>
>>550184595
>>550185913
https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Chopper
Specifically, the charr never managed to successfully make a helicopter on their own, and the only reason they exist at all is because "pact cooperation"
>The original prototype was designed by Kailani the Foolhardy, though the prototype never managed to maintain flight. When the Pact was formed, they obtained the plans for Kailani's chopper and improved upon it, making it a working flying vessel.
>>
>>550185913
>>550186172
Which is also bad writing when one thinks on it, because Charr had the basis of Engineer abilities even as far back as GW1 content. Which still leaves a stretch of time when the Charr had gunpowder, including fuck off huge tanks/juggernauts yet apparently couldn't tear down Ebonhawke's walls once in the span of 200 years?
The more you think on it, the more retarded it gets. The real reason the Charr weren't allowed to make progress is because otherwise, Humans wouldn't be playable and nobody would play the game. Any other answer is astronomic levels of cope.

The Charr had their own mages in addition to an immense technological advantage. Which in many cases is all you need to push yourself over the edge in most cases we have to compare to.
And no, the Ascalonian Ghosts aren't an explanation either, because with all the advantages the Charr had stacked including the manpower advantage, they could've taken Ebonhawke in a weekend if they dedicated any resources at all to it. GW2 is not a seriously written game.

>>550189185
Charr mages weren't very prolific and generally looked down on and distrusted in charr society until very recently. They also weren't especially powerful save for Ash Legion necros and maybe some Blood Legion eles (Flame refugees) ironically enough. The legion that could produce powerful magic users has been kill on sight for everyone for most of recent history.

Charr had a slight industrial edge with the rediscovery of dwarven keg powder and engineering techniques but these weren't things that came out quick or to scale in the conflict, nor were they exclusive. Wasn't long before humans started with gunpowder themselves.

Humans meanwhile love magic, will repurpose or use any tech they scavenge, reverse engineer it, never let a good crisis go to waste, and will throw money at asura to get everything shipped by gate ASAP (and would likely figure out gate tech by themselves like the canthans did).

Even without the treaty or any outside help, Ebonhawke would stand. The charr were never going to "lose" anything for that tiny living ascalonian enclave being there, but they were never getting that back either. The treaty gives both sides an out.

razah will always and forever be a ritualist in my mind. nu-anet will never convince me otherwise that he/it is a dervish. they tried to dump too many memberberries into one expac's especs to try to make up for bad decisions. they should have come out with a completely new class in eod called "ritualist" and it should have been built around the gw1 rit. the playerbase only asked thousands of times to bring it back, but anet is dumb; they rather put resources into such things as a mechanist. just the same with pof, add a dervish. "oh hey everyone, uhhh, razah is the dervish!" fuck off, anet.

They just die a lot.
Charr do, too, but they wouldn't typically have orphans because of the fahrar system, and Olmakhan raise cubs communally anyways.

>>550248492
to use a core, you have to unlock the mastery line for jade bots. (i personally never upgraded past core 1 because i am low IQ and lazy) otherwise, you have wasted gold just storing it because you "might use it some day."
>>
>>550249379

there was a long period where this thread would get botted with image spam to oblivion, activity took a nosedive because nobody could do anything about it and using the thread was impossible with that much spam, then for a while nobody bothered to maintain the general anymore, every once in a while someone would make one and it would get sniped by the bot, so everyone just moved on, this period lasted years, seems the bot is gone now so this general's activity is mostly recovering but the damage was already done, most people who used this general back then never bothered to come back

https://metabattle.com/wiki/Build:Virtuoso_-_Condition_Virtuoso
>>
Eh, overall the beastmastery changes are okay. Maybe those extra buffs specifically for pet will make it decent, but realistically only Soulbeast will every make full use of beastmastery
>>
>>550276307
keep in mind Chrono still has improved alacrity they just made it baseline instead of an option so that 1 minute cooldown isn't actually 1 minute, and the CC nerf is fine the only thing it did is make chrono can't solo the CC bar, 350 on humility will still do like a 1/3 to 1/2 of most CC breakbars, CC should be a group effort anyway and it is on any other healer, and you can still double up anything you want with continuum split, as I said the nerfs are fine Chrono was just that absurdly strong
>>
>>550276609
use the raid version off snowcrows and not some "community" open world build from metabattle
if you need more survivability you can swap your utils around.

Helo local hyper end game player here(all titles all cm lcm etc) the nerfs are retarded and targeted specifically at less than 1% of the playerbase but will affect anyone who wants to play mesmer as a healer. Nerfs to multi hit CC(shatter 3) a massive nerf to signet of humility(45 second CD changes nothing because you never need it that often) phantasm sharp shooter means less boon up time AND less CC. Spear CC was used by end game chrono players on W8 for CC and mobility. Nerfs to precog, daze and grav well are all retarded because those are situational takes, minus precog which will now make doing W8 CMs and certain fractal CMs more annoyong and overall lower the quality of clear runs. Instead of raping the only support class people want in end game content they should have been buffing other classes and giving them an identity to match. Arenanet devs are literally jewish niggers who want to sell you VoE.

they said on stream it's been finalized for over a week
>>
>>550279189
Yes it will be better because it's unaffected by the CC nerfs in the same way while now having better access to aegis which also gives super speed. The stability changed a few months ago already made it so troub would have better access to stab. It also gives distortion share on a low CD. There's certain raids you can nullify all mechanics on with good timing. Even more so than chronomancer ever could.
>>550279427
You've never done W8 cms and it shows.
The CC nerfs and stab nerfs specifically destroy the current meta strats for ura CM and LCM. All muscle memory for drops/ double drops is now out the window. The rest of the game, maybe you're right.

I know it's never going to happen but I'd really like it if ANet improved the UI for all post-PoF especs.
Catalyst and Conduit compete for hardest energy bar to see, the UI for Luminary is essentially a separator between the virtues and forge and Troubadour has some effort put into it but still looks like a hack job.

Mesmer is the most nerfed class in the game, and it's not even close. I'd wager if you check the full history it's around an 80/20 split between nerfs and buffs. Guardian has always been arenanets golden child.
>>550282867
>60k dps
I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the multitude of classes that are effectively dead or worthless along with the wide selection of weapons that do not see play in 3 of the 4 main gamemodes. My top benchmark is around 48-50k for hard to play classes and most should be 43-45kdps depending on utility.

I see the incursive investigation achievement will give me gloves, but to complete it you have to spam fractals I guess.
aside from that, how do I get legendary gear and weapons? I don't have SOTO but I do have PoF, HoT, EoD.

why do all legendary gear in the achievements panel show 3/4, is it because I have 3/4 crafting materials needed despite missing the ones that matter? picrel

>>550293834
You have to gather a large amount of crafting materials and mystic forge them into components shown off in that collection of yours. You're currently on Tier 1/4 and when you get another one of those items needed for the collection it will upgrade into Tier 2/4 since you cleared the amount required for current objectives. It's convoluted, so don't pay too much mind towards it and just focus on filling out the components you will need for your legendary. If you haven't looked at it yet, I would suggest to check out the wiki for help
