Guild wars 1 is very much alive, we have a /vm/ guild that has been running near weekly events for 2.5 years now for anyone interested in doing endgame content, new players are always welcome and no prior experience is needed.>>1754525 Previous ThreadOur prophecies 50/50 prog continues from bloodstone fen. We have plans on Friday 18th to play some AB at 2PM EST, be there so we can win for glorious luxons. We do other PvP and various ZB/ZM stuff as well just watch thread for plans.If you want to join guild, post your IGN.Useful linkshttps://www.gw-memorial.net/https://gwpvx.fandom.com/wiki/PvX_wikihttps://wiki.fbgmguild.com/wiki/Main_Pagehttps://party.gwtoolbox.com/https://kamadan.gwtoolbox.com/https://ascalon.gwtoolbox.com/https://hom.guildwars2.com/en/#page=welcomeAnd fix your sound!>https://guildwarslegacy.com/forum/thread/10525-announcing-dsoal-gw1-3d-positional-audio-and-eax-effects-for-everyone/What is DSOAL-GW1?>When GW was released in 2005, the audio component of Microsoft’s DirectX API was something called DirectSound. DirectSound had a 3D audio component called DirectSound3D, or DS3D, that could pan and amplify/attenuate sound sources based on their position relative to the camera in the game’s 3D world. PC’s with a high-end Creative sound card also had access to EAX, an extension to DS3D with a suite of hardware DSP effects for occlusion, obstruction, reverb, echo, etc. Like most games of its era, GW’s audio system was designed around DirectSound and DS3D, and owners of high-end PCs could get the “definitive” audio experience with EAX.>All that ended in 2007 with Windows Vista. Vista completely broke DS3D and EAX. Rather than fix it, Microsoft deprecated DirectSound and pushed developers to adopt its new XAudio2 API for future games. With DS3D and EAX broken, GW hasn’t sounded “right” in any version of Windows since XP.
Sorry it took me so long to post new thread, meant to do it yesterday but ended up forgetting due to work.
>bought some character slots during sale>rolled up female nf eleIt has been 72 hours and I still have an erection. I am uninsured American I cannot see a doctor. Can ele mains chime in, should I be worried or is this normal ele experience?
>>1854514Typical straight male experience when dealing with Obsidian Flesh.Also, get some Obamacare ffs.
"Hello," muttered the Paragon in a BOOMING voice.
k*nsuke where is the gif-webm for the previous session>>1854514>american>nonstop erection at sight of an el*nianit's terminal>>1854477do you have an interesting team build for ab
>>1854772This is the setup I made last thread. The 2 warrior builds are abusing this months flux which gives you stacking damage increase (up to 30% bonus damage) when you use a different attribute skill then last. You basically cycle between penetrating blow and symbolic strike, using battle rage whenever it runs low to maintain +30% damage on your attacks. Symbolic strike will slap people for nearly 100 damage and you can spam it basically every other hit.The necro is a melee support curse necro pretty good enchant rip and condi removal. And barbs + defile + cracked armor can create unexpected melee spikes.The rit is a pretty standard channeling support rit this set up is very energy efficient so it should be able to just spam skills off cooldown. Ancestors rage can set up some 200 damage spikes if it happens to explode while the warrior is doing a symbolic strike.I thought about doing a silly hex spam setup since most teams don't seem to run heavy hex clear but this seemed way funnier.
>>1854772I've been busy as fuck, I think I got ascalon ones I didn't make yethell I think I have caps from the last prophecies campaign for webms I didn't make yet
what a crappy op pic who made the thread omfgalso I suggest for the next op to include links to gw launcher/daybreak and pvx links to HUD/carto mods for completion and maybe that guy's youtube channel who frequently posts POV vids from gvg scrims so people can get acquainted with that
>>1855779too autistic, just play the game
>>1855811"no"
>>1855779I try to always make each thread with a different OP picture unless I really specifically liked one of them, after making these threads for almost 3 years I am starting to run out of pictures lol always open to community submissions for what OP should be. My only requirement is that you can easily tell it's a picture of guild wars.I'll consider adding links for gwlauncher/daybreak but desu the vast majority of people aren't multi accounting in this game so feel like it'd be a waste of space, carto is probably a good idea though, I'll add that next thread. The OP already has PvX links. I like Hubert (gvg scrim guy) but I don't really want to shill for the guy but if people are alright with me including it in the OP I'll include a link to his channel.
>>1855822You can use the meme skill icons if you run out of pretty pictures.
>>1855822it's not only for multi launch, you can load multiple mods at once, e.g., toolbox and umod and do stuff like autologin etc
>>1855935>autologinhttps://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Command_line_arguments#-password_.3Cstring.3E
>>1856206Thanks!
>>1856206i tried doing this manually and it wouldn't work for some reason >__<
Is it possible to do the Prophecies campaign solo if there are no players around? Grew up with that and am all up for some nostalgia
>>1857133Henchies, bro
>>1857109Which part did you have trouble with?
>>1857133It is possible yes: you can simply use ai-controlled henchmenI am currently doing just that, it's funBut holy shit was I bad at the game when I was a kid: I remember struggling on some missions for days with friends, while I complete them easily with henchmen now
>>1857109You need to input both your email and password, plus a character name. E.G.-character "Wam Mo" -email sealclubber@4channel.org -password s3cr1tklub -
>>1857176>>1857309I use the client so no need now
>>1854862battle rage ends on using non-adrenal skillsflux resets on using same attribthis means interrupts cannot be used without losing ias and ims? i feel like i dont understand somethinghow about this change?
>>185779690% of the time you are bouncing between symbolic strike and penetrating blow for this build. Without battle rage you need to attack 4 times to build enough adrenaline to use it. With battle rage you get double adrenaline from attacks so every 2 attacks you can spam out 100 damage. Because battle rage takes 4 adrenaline to use it is extremely easy to fund it, so even if you wanted to use a signet (which you shouldn't it's generally not worth it but maybe there's some devestating skill you can rupt) you can just immediately use battle rage again.The signets are almost purely on the bar for powering up symbolic strike, but they are versatile in that you can spam that before entering combat to build up your flux bonus to 30% before moving in for a single strike.example video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOsiR_jIWzItl;dr the signets on this bar are almost purely for powering up symbolic strike and battle rage exists to fund your ability to spam symbolic strike even faster.

>>1859682nvm
>>1854477Fellas, I'm in a particular bind. I recently picked up a couple pretty complete-in-box collectors edition boxes of Factions and Nightfall for cheaper than fast food. Obviously the code's are long gone but the discs are all there. Are there any private servers that let me skip the authenticating process, like what WoW private servers do?
>>1859823No. The boxes/discs are collector items at best and trash to most.You can buy literally everything in GW1 (masterpiece collection) for $40 from the official store right now. You just missed the most recent sale when everything was like $20. They do these sales often enough.It was $8 for the 20th anniv earlier this year.
>>1859829I'm not spending $40 for a 20 year old game.
>>1859833Then wait for the next sale.
ab starting soon come bash niggers in the head
>>1859833You've managed to miss 2 sales one that happened earlier this month/last month that had game discounted up to 50% off, and another in april/may which had the game 75% off. If you're lucky there might be another sale in August for wayfarer, I'd recommend just wishlisting it on steam and waiting for a sale.
>>1854477wtf that combo of 2 spellcasters and 4 bandits keeps raping me, do i even push into this mountain>>1857133if you want we can party up but i just started tonight, level 6 if that matters, just walking around doing the introductory quests before i pick a 2nd classHow's quest progress handled here anyway? Clears the quest for both of us?
>>1860554Quests that update by themselves update for everyone who has it in their log.If you particularly need to talk to someone or do something then everyone has to do it separately, but you don't have to leave the same instance.Example: If the quest says to go kill McNigger, pick up his watermelon, then talk to Chuck to turn the quest in, everyone who has the quest will have it update when McNigger dies, pick up a separate watermelon, then everyone has to go talk to Chuck to turn it in. You never have to leave a zone or duplicate effort for people in the same party doing quests.BTW, yes, at level 6 you should be totally fine going up the foothills in WIzard's Folly. Try not to over-aggro. Bandits are only level 1 or 2 there.If you want some help I can hop on and follow along with you.
>>1860573I could handle the elementals easily, i think i need to get the upgraded armor boots and helmet , maybe some new skills from the warrior trainer as i didn't talk to him yet. I just get nuked since i draw aggro instead of the panther and the healing can't catch up LOL.It's fine for now, i don't think i need to reach the top (yet)
>>1860587Keep in mind that you're going to basically be taking double damage while activating Healing Signet because of the armor penalty. You might get better use of the Ranger's Troll Unguent while you're actively being attacked.
>>1860595Additionally, if you're using Frenzy, be careful of a similar effect on that skill too.
>>1860595Sadly i switched to the elementalist trial skills so now i have the aoe Fire shower, ranger seemed the coolest as a sub class.I try not to spam Signet/Rage in combat too much. I think what happens is i stay in the NPC's fire shower and that just chunks me.
>>1860606Yeah, step outta that shit, dude.Ranger is one of the more straightforward secondaries for Warriors, but every profession can synchronize in unexpectedly awesome ways.
>>1860606if you're in pre I can goof around with you if you want, are you on now?
>>1860615Actually i went back and just did it, so what i did was break the pack of 6 into 2 by using the meteor spell, the spell that chunked me is Flare, deals ~16 on first hit then 30~50 and my HP is 240, crazy damage even when i split them up.>>1860634I just started in prophecies, wiki says thats pre searing, i guess that's what you mean, im on atm, but clearing the mountain to reach the wizard (assuming from the quest description lol) char ign: Kerch Thunderdon, on eu 1 atm
>>1860645go head with the wizard then and enjoy
>>1860658k got carried away exploring the left side of the map down the mountain im in ascalon europe - english - district 1, can switch to america if u want, my ping is around 110ms in instance
>>1860645>Kerch Thunderdon, on eu 1even euros play on aed1 I thinkI might be wrong (na so don't personally need it) but that sets the town server, not the server once you're out in the wilderness. eed1 ascalon city will be a ghost town, aed1 will have like 40 people in ut
>>1860694Ah i was thinking active sets you up with a random channel, so if district 1 is available to pick, then it throws you there and there only. It seems that's the case after checking the upper left menu, its 1 AM in eu atm so its pretty empty anyway (Your party is already in an active district). I'll be chilling for about 10 minutes more for the other anon otherwise i'll go farm my boots
>>1860701Oh i got what you mean now after rereading the post, what seems weird to me in that case is that when it picked america for me the ping was 110ms on the lower right green button, but if i went to EU it was 40ms, even if it was a solo instance in a exploration area.(I switched because some clipping happened in combat where i rubberbanded a few times)
Posting for the new guy
what could have been bros...
Is it possible to find groups for low levels ingame (without using 4chan - sorry I don't want to play with /pol/)
>>1861670>sorry I don't want to play with /pol/we're pretty tame desubut no, unless you plan it, you have maybe a 1 in 15 chance of seeing someone at the same level who's amenable to partying up for a mission. and if you're the euro, eu towns will be pretty much empty
>>1861651How do you get that recycle info? Mod?
>>1861744gw toolboxif you get it you should turn off the quest marker line thing though, it turns the game into even more of an exercise in brainlessly looking at your compass
>>1854477proph prog tomorrow, is everyone able to make it this time?
>>1861917ye
>>1861917I have a pool party, so no.
What's up boys
>>1861917yep, since we have 1 at pool party we'll put off doing rotscale for another week. Tomorrow's goal will be Bloodstone Fen + Aurora glade, and we might do a little bit of side questing to get some skills + outposts.
>>1862087not much bro yourself?
for my birthday, i want a pool party with pale goth ascalonian femnecros
>>1862326Can we invite tight Canthan assassins and voluptuous Elonian elementalists too?
>>1862393We cannot invite elonians to a pool party anon
>Zaishen Mission rotation comes up with one you remember taking 10+ tries before beating it the first time>Now it's so trivial you can unga bunga and don't even pretend to give a shit about separately pulling groups
>>1862608none of our characters can swim either>>1862638you gotta nerf yourself a bit
>>1862648Yeah I'm starting to fuck around with embarrassingly bad hero team comps. Right now I'm working on putting together an all martial heroes setup where they all also have pets.
>>1862668You joke but that's guess nuts with TaO
>>1862134looks like the login server for GW1/2 is down so I can't get in currently

>>1863715Respect. I do not have the fortitude to spend 5 hours edging myself through The Deep.
i have completed all side quests on my prog character except kessex peakit's a pretty nice feeling. opening it and seeing nothing.i was just thinking earlier how sitting in gw is kinda nice. just the visual setup of tiny character in big world, low poly/high definition, low amount of things i have to do high amount of things i can do. very opposite from modern mobages which have a bajillion checklists and a bajillion rewards on a bajillion timers. so many things to do but doing any of them doesn't mean anything. but in gw nothing moves unless i do something.
>/u/ being a meaniebuttclassic
>>1864416honestly gw quests stress me out a little because they're one-time only and actually mean something. having this quest will ferry your party into an area. this quest is the best way to farm x items. even ones with no external use like wik, it feels bad only being able to go through it once per characterit's more of a personal issue though, I do like that gw isn't a treadmill where you grind and slop your way into exhaustion
>>1864797fuckers lol
>>1864797normal cups dayi can't find my cups cap so have something else>>1864838i get stressed when things don't mean things because i continue doing things until something is meaningful, and when nothing is meaningful the only thing that stops me is said exhaustion.
>>1864838There's maybe 2-3 quests in the game that are actually useful for ferrying, and only 1 people actually care about (consulate docks). As far as farming quests there are a few but most of the best farming spots in this game do not require quests the only ones worth caring about:-A chance encounter (WoC for ministrel commendations)-Farmer Hamnet (Pre-Searing XP)Honorable mentions:-Chasing Zenmai + Afflicted Guard + Drunken Master so you can clear bukdek byway for vanquish fast the 1-2 times per YEAR it shows up (during this ZV you can easily find a group to do it on all your alts).-Drakes on the plain if you are a speedrunner who gives a shit about getting drake kabobs (just buy them and farm literally ANYTHING else)All other farming quests exist to farm nick trophys once every 3 years, or are farms that were useful in 2006 such as the ascalon settlement feather farm.I don't think there's ever been a time where I've completed a quest and later went "oh damn wish I still had that" and I use to farm nick sets every week for months. tl;dr don't stress about it, the farming quests aren't that important and are usually eclipsed by non quest farming spots.
it's free obby shards this week get your rangers out bros>>1865126there's the slave spirits for q8 farm in nf and that one quest around the marketplace for jade q8 farm too
never again i said after derv kill me
>>1865158The Wurms being mandatory after the first Desloation mission was pretty disappointing. It's the only thing I don't like about any of the locations in Elona.
I am planning on a full gw1 playthrough with 2 other people and am wondering what the better (or best in case i end up playing when we are done) solo classes are that also excel in small groups. I am currently leaning towards ranger or elementalist but i know absolutely nothing about the game. one of them is planning to go mesmer I think. also which class has the best slutwear.
>>1865276Mesmer, Ranger, Necromancer, Warrior, Elementalist, in that order is my experience for carrying solo play with Prophecies starting classes. Elementalists are glass cannons so they need to be looked after, a good Warrior player in the party is great for herding enemies. I haven't created a Monk character so I can't say, but if the idea is to play with friends any of them are good choices. The fun part is, with Smiting skills and secondary classes, you don't just have to be the party's heal daddy, so consider that if anyone has reservations about playing a Monk.Female Elementalists are the sluttiest by far, especially the Nightfall sets. Although the Mesmers get a straight up nightgown as a prestige sethttps://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Elementalist_armor If you fancy playing ele, a quick rundown for the flavors of magic is:Air magic is usually for single-target damage with armor penetration, and some spells have conditions like blindness and cracked armor.Fire magic is a big 'ole bucket of AoE and almost always applies a burning condition to target and nearby enemiesEarth magic is a mix of offense and support in that it uses a lot of knockdown, slowing, and wards in addition to damageWater magic deals less damage overall and has a lot more party support / enemy control.I strongly suggest playing the game blind, but when you are hitting a wall check out the wiki and pvx for info & builds to take inspiration from.
>>1865126it's not rationalit's about having the option. there are a bunch of random maybe-but-never-actually useful quests (e.g. tele into vizunah local quarter) and the reward is usually just xp, so it's easy to give up
>>1865143don't get me wrong, I like q8s as much as the next guy but thats such a hyper specific farm you're probably better off just farming GotT and then buying the q8 you want rather than trying to farm a specific q8 attribute. >>1865386If you're really terrified of locking yourself out of quests ask yourself "is this character a character I will use to solo farm?" Just don't complete quests on derv/assassin/ritualist etc... I don't really think you'll be solo farming mobs on your paragon lol.
>>1865386>"Poor people often have hoarder behaviors related to saving trash so they will never need to spend money buying, like, new bags or rubber bands. Then they end up buying 5 of everything else because they can never find it in their drawers and closets stuffed with trash">"Hoarding and consumption are the same root cause. A simple policy which requires no judgment or determination of value."
>>1865431I said it's not rational I've always been like this, I hate item durability and nonreplinshable consumables
>>1865460thanks for the unrequested psychoanalysis and calling me broke, but it's only a thing in video games, I'm pretty unattached to stuff and keep a clean house
>>1865276You can choose any profession for solo play. It doesn't matter. You only have one direct damage skill line on monk (can use secondaries too of course), but it's also actually fun and useful to heal/prot with real prayers.Mesmer has classy slutwear, like the hot librarian who takes off her glasses and is a 10/10 who sucks the life out of your cock. Elementalists has the nasty slutwear like some hoe you find stoned at a concert who you rail behind the porta potties and feel like you need to get an STD panel done the very next day.
Guys I keep getting filtered by the skeletal ice mage packs on The Great Battlefield, what do?
>>1866140when they cast maelstrom, don't stand in it
Just don't do optional quests that aren't attribute or skill quests. It's literally that easy.
>>1866140join us on our annual fow runcurrently scheduled for early december
>>1866140>>1866321The only annual thing we do is UW in October for Halloween :PThat said, we always do a FoW after everytime we finish a prog since I think it's a good level of difficulty for typical prog rules. I predict we'll finish this prog sometime in October. If we have space you're welcome to join us.
>>1865519examples are for illustration and that's the one that came with the logic in this instance. if it actually matched you in real life, then that's where it's useful. if it only matches you in videogames, then that's where it's useful. you could even be super rich in games - the logic presented is, if you didn't have this impulse, you would be even richer/enjoy having things more.i don't think anyone on 4chins cares about social status. i am interested in solving problems. and you seem to agree that this is a problem, so i presented a quote i saw recently that suggests a possible path. it is possible the logic is wrong, that hoarding occurs for some other reason, or that fear of use is something else. but i can't add to that unless you want to discuss it.>>1866554is HA not annually in aprilspeaking of endgame stuff how come i never hear about sorrow's furnace anymore?
>>1866620true I forgot about HAWe use to do SF but toward the end of progs we typically have high burnout and I got pretty lukewarm responses when I asked in the past if people were interested in SF coupled with rewards being kinda meh, and the difficulty having a large range from kinda boring to god awful, on a bad day SF can take 2 sessions to complete. I'm always open to it but if we're interested in doing more than just FoW post prog, I think ToPK would be a better area.
Just started playing again for the first time after the release of gw2. Unfortunately I lost access to my original account and bought the game again in the sale. It's crazy how much fun this game still is. I tried so many online rpg games over the years including gw2, but they all kinda suck. I think I stopped playing gw2 after a few weeks post release and I never really found a replacement for gw1. But I'm still salty I lost my account, not that it had much valuable stuff. But still things I worked hard on and a few meta classes from back then and such.btw. I got super lucky and found a black dye in pre searing I think on the first day of playing again. Any tips on how I can safely sell it for post gold?
>kessex peak>infinity aloes>the falls>infinity spidersi think kryta is a bad place
>>1866554i was merely jesting since we haven't done anything since anniv HA and last pve doa iirc
>>1866994We did GvG stuff, but that was a while ago now. I'm up to anything so long as I can make the scheduled time
>>1866908>btw. I got super lucky and found a black dye in pre searing I think on the first day of playing again. Any tips on how I can safely sell it for post gold?Make that a perma-pre character (you've always wanted to get LDoA anyway, right?), put it on your armor, and style on all the plebs in Ascalon with it.
>>1867375I'm considering it, but I already accepted some quests and stuff I think. Not sure how bad it even is honestly, you can still do the dailies. So it might simply cost me a few more days. I'm certainly going to do it anyways, but not yet sure with what character.
>>1867412I didn't even bother "saving" my quests. It just gets you to the dailies faster IMO, and from there you can grind it out at your leisure.
>>1866908>Any tips on how I can safely sell it for post goldguildies
>>1867791I'm intrigued to join a random 4chan guild, but I suppose you guys are ameriburgers? And also kukluxons? But I suppose at least I could say mean words without being cancelled?
>>1868088I meant your guildies but yeah, we won't scam you eitherwe're majority na yeah, if we schedule stuff it's been at 3est sundays, or 9ish cet. post name if you want an invite
>>1868098thanks for the offer!times wouldn't be impossible, I might come back to you. But I'm currently playing 100% Solo Wars anyways, until I get all heros and stuff. So I'm not really ready to participate in anything.
>>1868278do you have a guild? there's no requirement that you have to come for stuff
>>1868278join us we aren't many euros here but we're like the shadow government

>>1868333A S C A L O NSCALON
>>1868088In theory we have euros in the guild who ask for euro friendly timezones for stuff, but in practice whenever I try to set things up to be a euro friendly timezone only NA people show up and then I question why I planned a game for 3PM EST when no euro's show up.>>1868333Invited, just watch thread for when we schedule stuff I try to remember to update the MOTD but I forget... a lot. No pressure on joining this current prog, I've got some fun ideas for our next factions prog after we finish this one and I might try to schedule some endgame stuff later in august or september.
>>1868400we could just move it now that we're like halfway through to some other time.
>>1868484I wouldn't do that to our single euro who actually showed up (mae), that said the time seems to be working out for the moment, even on bad days our prog is missing 2 people at worst. Also I might not be here on Sunday to run the prog, I'll be on vacation and no promises on whether or not I'll be able to join on my laptop. If I'm not here the session's plans are Aurora Glade + Riverside Province. Unlock Maguuma Stade and Fisherman Haven if you have spare time.
>>1868400thank you accepted. We will see ofc I will try to participate in what I can. But like I said, I'm currently building account. Just started like a week ago.

>>1854477idk how anyone plays this shitty game, i tried it like 3 months ago and it just feltl ike there were too many fucking NPCs and way too many confusing quests, literally got to the first town and then it tells me to go to a place thats like 3 towns over, wtf kind of MMO does that shit?
>>1871008>Retard refuses a call to adventureLolLmao
>>1871016no i just don't like literally only 1 collect quest and then being told "go over here, but also we won't show you how to actually get there" like bruh, if i wanna play a fucking walking simulator i'll go play fallout 3, at least that game has dungeons along the way and not just retarded enemies that don't even look initimidating.
>>1871023also the skills don't even make sense in the game. It just feels so fucking bad.
>>1871028Meanwhile in GW2:I took this screenshot a few years ago, the tooltips for this single skill is so long I had to take an out of game screenshot just to capture the whole thing. This isn't even the worst one I've seen either.Personally from my experience playing MMO's GW1's are the most clear and concise about what they do save for a few, but every MMO has skills that are "ok what the fuck am I looking at". What skill did you encounter at low level that you thought was confusing?
>>1871039don't remember but yea thats why I don't play GW2 either. You know what game doesn't do this with skills? Diablo 2, WoW, Marvel heroes. I swear David Brevik knew how to make a game, well Blizzard in general.
>>1871046It's funny you say that because I hear people compare this game to diablo 2 oftenly likely due to many former anet devs worked on d2 before this game.But yeah dunno what you are talking about with skills, I literally can't think of any that aren't extremely self explanatory, do you remember what you were playing/looking at? With GW1, the dungeons are main quest missions there are end game dungeons/hard areas in the game, But every instanced mission is a dungeon where if you wipe, there is no resurrecting.
>>1871072nope don't remember cause its just that forgettable honestly, which was another reason i didn't really continue with it. Also i don't think people have ever played diablo 2 if they compare this game to it lmfao.
>>1871081That's fine, GW1 isn't for everyone, game is designed more like a cooperative RPG with team based elements in a world where most MMO's nowadays are "playing solo together" with your only meaningful interactions with other players often being seeing them "exist" in the world, and occasionally doing dungeons with them. As each game endlessly try to copy eachother (and WoW) and often fail miserably. Few games are willing to boldly explore new frontiers, why play a WoW clone when you can just play WoW after all.The reason we still play this game is because there's simply nothing else like it on the market, there's no true successor to GW1 because GW2 tried to follow the WoW path (and failed miserably) making a game that didn't appeal to GW1 fans, or many WoW players. There's not really been another MMO designed in the same team based structure GW1 has with it's deck building skill system, theory crafting teams and designing heros who synergize together is fun.It's why even though the last PvP balance patch was 13 years ago, the PvP scene is still thriving here and starting to grow as more people become aware of it.
>>1871142i just don't understand how people can even compare tthis game to diablo 2, its very misleading.
>>1871157Some people seem to have only ever played Diablo as their RPG experience so they see attributes, gear drops, and skills, and go "Oh its like Diablo"
>>1870390>>1870800i meant desolation, which is where i am in nightfall atm. vabbi is really amazing. comparing kodash to droknar is more development than we've had in western videogames the past ten years. but vabbi is like the only pretty part.nightfall everyone hates each other and is angry or snarky at everything. even varesh is perpetually angry. am i supposed to give a shit about melonni and koss? even if they weren't ugly niggers, what exactly is going on between them other than snark and more snark.>"we do belong together you know"yeah, in the trash. what the fuck is this? we have perfectly fine rurik and althea, and mhenlo and cynn. then nightfall we get retard and bitch.only guy having a good time / believing what he's doing is palawa joko.
>>1871529>You are a natural follower, centaur. Your dead ancestors served as my cavalry.We didn't deserve Palawa Joko.

what are some unorthodox ranger builds
>>1872556Leveraging expertise for non ranger skills. Protector's strike, soldiers strike, thrill of victory, whirlwind attack, sun and moon slash (for sword), cyclone axe and dismember (for axe). The classic dagger combo. Necro touch skills is another classic.The expertise sword can be cool if you go 12 expertise, 12 tactics, and use those tactics based melee skills, protector strike and sun and moon slash. With TaO and SoH, you do pretty okay.There's a fake ST rit build that uses oath shot. Not sure how it actually builds back the energy though.
>>1872945>fake ST rit build that uses oath shot. Not sure how it actually builds back the energy though.OggjcxYDITWPPOhTVGDg5iIH3lArituals are 64% cheaper with 16 exp
>>1872945sun and moon slash is adrenaline. what benefit does expertise have on adrenaline?
>>1873029It doesn't. But you are still building it as a resource. Hitting twice when you have a TaO and SoH each giving +16 per hit means The skill hits actually pretty hard. The skill doesn't actually scale with swordsmanship so it's great for going with the 12 expertise 12 tactics. Protector's strike is used because the cast time means it can cancel the end lag of a non-cast time attack, effectively fake IAS. Again it doesn't need investment in strength to be useful
>>1873040based prot strike user shits cash on all melee wars dervs sins rangers double hammer pops are op as shit
>>1873133>shits cash on all melee warsthe fuck is the point of it on a warisn't it power attack but conditional, and you should have more strength than tactics anyway
>>1873143It's an auto attack reset. The conditional extra damage is just gravy.
>>1873143>>1873146Specifically for swords, it cancels the 0.665 second aftercast delay of an attack that is normally to return your character to neutral, and instead you spend 0.25s doing the protectors strike and then 0.25s returning to neutral. It's both an extra hit and actually faster than the normal end lag (0.665+0.25+0.25 vs 0.665+0.665). If used every 3rd natural auto/normal skill, you simulate having around a 28% IAS, but it actually stacks with real IAS
>>1872945>The expertise sword can be cool if you go 12 expertise, 12 tactics, and use those tactics based melee skills, protector strike and sun and moon slash. With TaO and SoH, you do pretty okay.I do this already>Necro touch skills is another classic.I did this 15 years ago>The classic dagger combo.booooooooringI'll check the oath shot one
>>1872556>>1873220unspecced fevered dreams, apply poison and all the ranger condition attacks bow r/w with flourish
>>1873470now this is good thanks bwhat do you mean by unspecced and r/w? wouldn't it be r/me?
>>18736882 different builds, flourish is a warrior eliteone is to use fevered dreams without really investing in illusion magic, and then spam every debilitating condition onto enemy balls. if you use an illusion hero you can micro fragility too and really btfo themthe other is to bring flourish and a bunch of costly bow attacks with long enough durations to be on cd to get the energy refund, spam down the line, flourish, everything's available again and you have all your energy back
>>1873904ohh that's how you meant it I see thanks
dropped this cutie today anyone want it? not sure if worth anything even though it's got a clear gold value

Are we cancelling prog today
>>1875749if cups join we'll do itcurrently 3 of us online atm
in prog today we completed Aurora Glade and Riverside Province, as well as reaching Maguuma Stade and Fisherman's haven (did not do the quests in Fisherman's Haven).
time to cheat with the rest of them
>>1878797I'm adding your ass to friends when I get back online and tagging you as "only allow pve chars in gvg scrims"
>>1878811lol try playing in euro ping with 150-200 and rupting this shit gl
>>1878829>euro ping>implying
>>1878835when you join a pvp match if there's more euro players you get kicked into euro servers so you get cucked being a burger trying to pvp
>>1878841>gvg scrimsI think we still outnumber you guys for nowthe thread guild, that is. I think qq and whoever else runs real gvg tacitly endorses them
>>1878846gonna go test these bad boys out just made them
>>1878856can you double up other shitlike the chakram has effectively 2 of aptitudes on it, can you get +90hp from 2x of devotions
>>1878876yes you can get +60 shields or +90 while hexed stuff like that and i think there was some miscommunication i am a burger i mean there's just more euros that pvp so i get fucked i mean
>>1878876"balanced"
>>1878920damn bro, 731 plat? why you gotta flex on us like thatwhy don't these ever get brought up? I've seen 60/60 sets mentioned like 50 times, but never shield sets. you could probably stack +14 armor vs typed damage even
>>1878928i need 5 sentient vines and 5 ancient kappa shells if you got them log on and give gonna make something retarded and no they have to match a collectors set
>>1878934are you making a +60/-4 set
>>1878936high dom set so it should be something like 15-1 15-1 20% or 15-1 20/20 for wand and focus will either be 15 -1 15-1 +30 or 15 -1 +60
>>1878936welp couldn't get the high set to work but got another shield
One of my favorite things in GW is equipping a Signet of Capture, getting to the boss at the end of the dungeon/mission, and then realizing you forgot to switch subclasses.
>>1880735One of my favorite things in GW is equipping a Signet of Capture, getting to the bosses that spawns at three possible locations in a big ass zone, and finding that the boss I wanted didn't spawn at any one of them
>>1880980One of my favorite things in GW is equipping a Signet of Capture, getting to the boss at the end of the mission, and then realizing the ending cutscene will trigger before you have time to cap the skill.
>>1881484They often give you just enough time to capture
damn only 2 and a half years too late to play with anons
>>1881595wtf are you talking about, we play together every week
full setup so far the next time we run pvp shit i can show anyone they all do it so its not cheating lol
why these guys over here facin the wall
>>1882595protesting the caliber of adventurer who came to party up with them
>>1882595They're just shy that a cute girl actually walked up to them
How actually shit is W/Mo if I'm just playing with buddies/henchies? I'm kind of just fucking about with it in pre-searing and it feels "okay" as long as I'm not using any upkeep ability that lowers my already pathetic energy regen, like Retribution.
>>1882783It's not good but making strange builds work is half the fun of this gameI'm currently running factions with a W/E starburst warrior, it's pretty fun
>>1882791That is true, what's the point of being optimal if you aren't having fun.
>>1882783You get some smiting skills later that you can do some neat stuff with, but unironically Mo/W is better than W/Mo.
after being 2-2.5k for so long obs shards are now 6.5k
What do I spend ecto on?
>>1883412ele strippers
>>1883105runes of minor vigor at 1k....
>>1882791Starburst is just so fun man. Does damage, usually is energy positive. Big ass range. All around great elite.
Excuse me, why can't I take today's zm???
>>1884249had that happen on a bounty a week or two agotb on, tb off, swapped chars, relogged, nothing. and I didn't have it in my log already either
>>1884268The game also forces me into Embark Beach district 2, despite 1 being almost empty, which shouldn't happen. I wonder if that has anything to do with that.Guild Wars is dying.
>>1884272>The game also forces me into Embark Beach district 2, despite 1 being almost empty, which shouldn't happenYOU'VE BEEN HACKED BRO
>>1882791Neat, I've been thinking about A/E Ride the Lightning.
>>1885353Why not just shadow theft though
>>1885368Because Ride the Lightning is a better album and my Ass is already an untouchable blender as is, plus it's funny to teleport into a fight with the equivalent of a WWE intro with pyrotechnics.
>>1885368you're the kinda guy who just recommends dagger spam to anyone who asks for build recs, huh
>>1885439If they're on assassin primary, you got a good shadowstep that also buffs your air magic, and doesn't have overcast. If you want to blindmaxx running that, unseen fury and lightning touch is gonna be more sustainable
>>1885373I dunno, sweetie, 10e with 5 exhaustion...
>>1885491>>1885477Yes, true, but I'm not trying to be optimal, I'm trying to make dumb builds that make me laugh/
>>1885507I get that, but one cast and you've already kinda crippled your energy, and two casts and you're fucked. The low CD is a trap.
>>1884116What's your build?Personally, I only use 3 fire skills currently: starburst, inferno and conjure flame
>>1885582Consider swapping inferno for flame djinn haste. Little less damage but gives ims. But the ones you got are the good ones to grab when dipping ele. Flame burst could be another one but it just costs so much you generally can't run it. An alternative would be running double dragon but on warrior that's gonna be rough on energy.
>>1885624Thanks anon, I'll try those
we tried so hardand got so farbut in the endit doesn't even matter
>>1886491don't think I've ever done titan quests in my lifeare they cool
>>1886491frustrating ass quest and i can't solo party it ;_;
>>1886575NM is coolHM is shit and piss your pants
>>1886491we really did try atleast we got kryta done just ascalon left......
Are minipets worth anything?
>>1886491Is this the quest where you can just ignore the "your party has been defeated" button and finish it despite "failure"?
>>1885353>>1885373One of my favorite builds to be posted to these generals over the last 3~ years has been a E/W ride the lightning set up. I also saw a pretty cool E/R build some years ago that abused double dragon +EBSoH + pet for massive AoE damage that doesn't scatter enemies.>>1888756Only the super rare ones. If it dropped from a birthday present (especially year 1-5) the answer is probably "no". Green birthday minipets can sometimes be worth a few ecto. I like using my birthday presents on tonics instead, sometimes you get funny ones and they tend to sell easier if you get a good one.Also bros I will be back tomorrow depending on how much traffic there is will determine if I get home in time for the prog. Very high probability I will be behind wherever we currently are.

>>1888856The quest kills you. Maybe if you time it exactly right where the resurrection counter is ticking just as Adelbern dies that might work?
>>1888857I'm still gone this week too, but I'll be back next sundayare we in borderline desert run territory
>>1888857>>1889616i have a graduation party today so I won't be able to make it.We left off before at Sanctum Cay mission last week.We also picked up another Euro from the guild who joined us and may want to come along (IGN: Rather Concerned).

I'm really glad for the dungeon bosses that don't have health regen so that noobs like me can brute force it after fucking up and wiping 3 times.
>>1895050Cindr must have gotten accidentally changed somewhere along the line. There's no way that he was meant to have regenning health.
<----- look at this shit, isn't that awesome?Let's do Sorrow's Furnace before prog on Sunday, say 12 noon Eastern?
>>1898845wtf you guys are in the shiverpeaks? I'm never gonna catch up
>>1899026Nah we barely got to amnoon and augury rock. Haven't done any missions in the desert yet
>>1898845I said do it before prog, not do it as part of prog with our prog characters.I spoke to wawaa in guild chat this morning and he wants to do it too.
>>1898845That's a bit early for me but I'll see if I can make it
is there a pvp guild i can join i dont know anything about the meta, i saw some based names pop up a few times on the at, i just know necro skills, i dont play other classes they are all gay, armor is cringe it has to be cracked
>>1899072couldn't we just do it when we get there or after the ring of fire>>1899102>just know necro skills, i dont play other classes they are all gayunless you wanna play jq you got like 1 viable build
>>1899172>couldn't we just do it when we get there or after the ring of fireI guess... we were just saying how there aren't any guild activities besides prog happening and thats why it was suggestedsorry, wawaa, seems like it's not happening. maybe we could plan something else instead?
>>1899172Speaking of jq, does anyone know why we never see barrage rangers anymore?I must have a 100% winrate with this build, yet never see anyone else play it
>>1899214i'm easy i'll do anything whenever
>>1898869gem from the deepest mines of shiverpeaks
For any prog players who are behind and really can't be bothered to try and do the missions with henchies/don't have the time to do the missions but still want to join the prog on Sunday I can run you through anything you are missing just let me know (preferably before Sundays prog...)We might start sunday out doing rotscale, depends how many are here.
>>1899254Ive seen a few but its really easy to complicate and make you useless mesmers cucking the game as usual
>>1900153>its really easy to complicatewym don't you just mash 1 :^)
wawaaaa (and others), we are probably doing a non-prog Iron Forgeman (it's ZB today) run, so get online

Man am I really not gonna get any new skills for Swords besides Sever Artery and Gash? I mean I got Seeking Blade and Hamstring but those cost energy. I'm having some decent fun with W/Mo so far, bunching up enemies and dropping Symbol of Wrath on them is nice. I don't get to really use Judge's Insight that much because of the cost but not really sure what to replace it with atm. Maybe I'll just throw Remove Hex on there.
>>1905714final thrust?
>>1905714I forgot to mention I'm still in Shiverpeaks, but I'll look into that once I get to Kryta.
>>1905714I like the monk part of your build, not sure how to improve the warrior part this early
>>1905714You're going to fuck shit up in Kryta with Judge's Insight so put it back in then.The first Elite later on will be Warrior's Endurance, which can help you to add energy-cost warrior attacks while still letting you have enough energy to use your monk skill.
>>1905714SOVLnow I feel like making a wammo too
>>1905714There's also Galrath Slash (in addition to Final Thrust) that requires adrenaline. There are attack skills in the Tactics and Strength attribute lines. Riposte technically counts as well.
>>1905714Get power attack and protectors strike.
>>1906256>>1906025Don't listen to these energycel's lies. Be the adrenalord you were always meant to be and follow the guidance of these anons: >>1906238 >>1905731
>>1906601But warriors endurance is right there....
>>1905714Are you playing like a fresh new account and wanting to keep it that way, or are you cool with using tomes to get unlocked skills?
>>1905714>4/4are you gonna catch up to prog or somethin
>>1906025>>1906238>>1906256I'll keep these in mind, thanks. I forgot Kryta has a lot of undead so I'll pop Judge's Insight back in once I get there. Warrior's Endurance looks like it'd be a really good skill once I get to Crystal Desert.>>1906623It's not a fresh account, I just keep coming and going from Guild Wars over the years. I've never really committed to it but I would actually like to finish the campaigns someday.>>1906776Nah just kind of doing my own thing.

>>1912333mesmer gets pretty strong pretty fastwhen I picked, I just read through the primary attributes and the skills in those lines, that's basically all primary professions are vs secondaries. like if you mean ranger/monk and not ranger or monk, expertise doesn't do much for monkingthe best is the enemy of the good, you don't need to fret about what's gonna be perfect when you can make a necro or whatever next in factions. if you have a lvl 8 m/e in post, I'd just play that if you're having fun
>>1912333I've played them all now but i picked them or any mmo class based on what play patterns sound coolest, followed by aesthetics to tie break. I started with mesmer cause my brother who got me into it said it was like playing blue in Magic the Gathering, and I thought that was cool as fuck. later i tried assassin cause melee sounded cool, and then dervish post rework was cool enough to live rent free in my head for a decade until I came back to the game.

I got "Closer to the Stars" in GW1 so that I could unlock the full HoM in GW2. How much more effort does it take to get GWAMM? Keep in mind I have completely forgotten how to play GW1 and I have absolutely no idea what I'm looking at on the screen anymore. I burned through this game in a couple months 13 years ago and I've forgotten everything.
>>1912385to me autistic title grinding is the least enjoyable aspect of this game, and you're coming back to do the annoying hard shit you left for later back thenunless you still play gw2 I'd just make a new character and play for fun. maybe even if you still play gw2. there are a bunch of account-wide titles so you can get back to 30/50 pretty fast

Super quick ZV today (less than 5 min) if you have the right quests. Chasing Zenmai removes all of the foes from Bukdek Byway, then you need a quest to spawn some in OR explore very carefully to only reveal one group and then flag your heroes over to the group to kill it.

Did you guys end up playing today or was todays prog skipped due to people being busy? I requested to go back on night shift earlier than usual so I might be able to make the Sep 14 prog after all.
>>1937668it's saturday
>>1937793if you couldn't tell my sleep schedule and sense of time is completely fucked lol.if you guys end up playing tomorrow let me know how far we get.
>>1936274I wanna do that too, can you link the sfx
prog is now guyswhere you at? we're waiting..
prog diedit's ogre...
>>1939186>>1939288I'll come back on another char once you hit dragon's lair or so, just been insanely busy on weekends
>>1939628dragon's lair is where we are at
I told you that I was going to be away this weekend. I'll also miss next weekend most likely.
>>1939693fuggwanted to come back by 8 man parties but I don't think I'm free by next sunday, maybe I'll be there for the shiverpeaks
playing gw1 for the first time in a while and i'm pleasantly surprised how hard parts of it are
>>1927649>>1928515MARCUS MY GOATare you back or just checking in for the event
>>1942337Are you playing in hard mode? I highly recommend it: it's challenging but not frustratingly so
>>1942584no i'm currently eating shit early in factions and even more difficulty is not what i'm looking for presently
>>1944331Man I love factions. kaineng just hates players
>>1944331>i'm currently eating shit early in factionsEvery fucking time
>>1942337Factions' difficulty spike when you hit the mainland is infamous due to the enemy level jump. My experience playing GW1 even back in the day was that it wasn't too hard most of the time, but there are build/skill checks that tend to hard-stop your progress until you figure it out. The ones that always come to mind are Elona Reach and Tahnnakai Temple.Kaining City is probably my favorite region in the game, it's the kind of poverty-stricken urban hellscape that wraps back around to being comfy as fuck.
>>1945598been playing with free cam there's some really cool stuff you will never see and looking at the game from a different angle is refreshing
Surely I'll remember to play and grab the legionnaire summon stone next year haha
>>1947544I got one a couple years ago and put it in my bank vault so I could use it on every character, which means I never remember to pull it out and haven't used it once
>>1942342Sure, I'll join the prog - just gotta beat Sanctum Cay and a quick desert tourBest build for level 7 Me/N?
>>1948576>Me/Nkinda gay dontcha think
>>1948576Welcome back Marcus, we continue on Sunday at 3 PM EST, if you want to catch up but you are too lazy to run to the outposts I will gladly give anyone who needs it a desert tour (or alternatively, run them to Drok run but you should really get dragons lair for post prog TOPK)Cool hexing build you might want to consider an energy management skill though, also as an additional note the theme of this prog is 50/50 - you are only allowed to have up to 4 skills from your primary profession, the other 4 have to be your secondary (No attribute skills are considered "free" space and don't count toward the 4)
>>1948576>5 necro skillsI'm telling mom
>>1949289>No attribute skills are considered "free" space and don't count toward the 4Wait WHAT
>>1949679Did you really get this far and not know that despite us saying it a bajllion times?
>>1949689Yes
>>1938594https://www.zedge.net/ringtones/b9d46b19-28c4-3690-bad8-1c6ec7d4f559here you go
oi lads its progging time
I can't make it today as I mentioned but I will be there next week
Tell me where you got to today so I know where I need to catch up to
we got nowhere
>>1952438We were only 5 so we decided to skip this week and do dragon's lair next week since 5 vs glint might be bit rough. In total our prog has about 9 active people (10 if we count kensuke's imaginary friend) but we've never had 7 show up all at once lol.As always if anyone needs help catching up I will gladly do full desert tours or whatever it needed if you can't be bothered but still want to attend progs.
elonians are sluts
>>1953227wtf this is a blue board
Honest thoughts on Chaos Gloves?
>>1954771Basic bitch
>>1954771Lame. Obsidian armor and blindfold too. It's a trivial amount of money so it's like bragging your car is worth $5000 when everyone is driving $4000 cars.
>>1954794Some obsidian armors look very cool: it's not just bragging about how rich you are
>>1954834Right, but if you're doing chaos gloves, blindfold and obsidian armor, it IS about money.
>>1954771ugly and tasteless
>>1954771Nice and cool
>>1954771Unpopular opinion, cool iconic GW1 glove if the year is 2005-2015Tasteless overused eyesore every year after that.I still like it because it's so iconic to GW1, but I would never personally buy it because I think it's ugly.Also I will be able to make it to Sunday's prog, but I'll only be able to stay an hour (so for a single mission) after that you guys keep going. But this does mean we need to start on time, does anyone have a problem making 3:15 PM EST on Sunday this coming week? If you need till 3:20 to show up, say so now
>>1954771could be hotlow poly women are greatwould be hotter if there were chaos heels
>>1954771TrashJust like every "universal" piece of cosmetic gear, but this one in particular is especially disgusting and represents everything wrong with stupidly glowy cosmetics in online games
>>1952751it's over bros pack it up and disband the guild
Just saw this >>720373080
>>1957743>>>/v/720373080
>>1954771shiny = cool me like
>finish vanquishing the last zone in a given region>get to open up the map and look around at all the fully explored zones and golden zone namesvery satisfying
>>1871028dude I was 12 and I had no issues...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LET ME IINNNNNN
can we do fow
Don't forget prog tomorrow try to show up no later than 3:15 PM EST
>>1960700nyo
PROG TIME
>>1962249shhhh glint is sleeping
>>1962259WRONG! That dragon is DECEASED.
Haunty: validation needed
>tfw you visit Regent Valley waterfalls irl
Ah shit, hate mobile posting. Oh well, turn your head a bit.
>>1962784
>>1962786
>>1962928There we go!
>>1962784*blocks ur path*
>>1962249we stole the 2 dragon eggs thus preventing the events of GW2 from ever happening no need to thank us.Also how far did we get on Sunday? I left early so what outposts were unlocked? Going start my solo grind for totem axe
>>1965292We only got to droks and stopped there.
>>1965298baka, knew I should of skipped more workDo people want to start 1 hour earlier (2 PM EST)?
>>1965379Also update, farmed my own totem axe using a prog approved build its funny to think back in 2005 people use to farm these for money.For anyone running behind in the prog I will happily run you to Drok's forge so you can catch up with the prog just let me know if you need it.
Haunty: unexpect the unexpected
>>1965438do you offer troll farming power leveling serviceswill give you +rep on gwguru if so
>>1965379should HAVE
>>1967072t.

gw1 is a real fun game to multibox. outpost running on two accounts at once, doing missions on 3 or 4 at once, botting 20 accounts at once
>>1970481webmd said it ain't safe to intake more than one cup of guild wars per day
>>1970504i built up a tolerance im fine
>>1970481how the fuck do you play more than 1 account at a time in a fighteven if it's a braindead spam 1 skill build, I can't imagine moving 4 characters at a time and managing swapping between windows>bottingu better not mean that shit
>>1970556can do most missions with 3-4 heroes, just have 3-4 accounts afk and 1 just run into enemies and let heroes clean them upeasier when youre doing the same missions side by side though, can take 8 accounts through a single mission playing just 2
>>1970556When I'm feeling super sweaty I'll sometimes multi account double ritualist, one plays ST, other plays SoS because both are super low APM. Movement for ST is pretty easy since I just gotta keep it super backline so I can focus on playing SoS correctly but I feel like anything over like 3 or 4 accounts would seriously impact your ability to play any of the accounts better than a hero.One of these days I'll get my alts to beat NF so I can do DoA runs.
