>>2408952On Sunday at 3:00PM EST we will be doing our annual Deep run! I will be giving out store codes, additionally I will be dropping valuable items on the ground throughout the run.There will be 3 different categories you can try for to win a store code:1) Top DPS2) Most creative build (voted by officers)3) Most effective build (voted by players in attendance)Please try and bring more creative builds this time, the judges were very dissapointed by last weeks showing of mostly meta builds.These are the builds we're currently playing for HA, we're having a lot of fun on these builds so we might just run this for rest of festival but if people are interested maybe we'll swap to a modern balanced set up on the last few days of festival. Also as a reminder this thread I will be posting images with hidden store codes for the remainder of this festival, if you find one please reply to the post with picture confirmation you claimed the code. I would additionally appreciate if people post more GW1 pictures this thread to help disguise when I post pictures with codes in them.
>>2408960I may find one, but I'm not going to post if I don't claim it.
Factions is shit and I am tired of pretending it is not.
I like factions the most
Warrior dagger, Ranger dagger, .. all plays the same as sin dagger to the point where I don't know what the point is just doing the same thing on multiple professionsbut Warrior Scythe plays differently enough from Derv Scythe that I think it's warranted playing both.
>>2407416>>2409070
>>2409132The point is to have a high damage build on a profession you're already playing. It's not trying to answer the question of which profession to play daggers with, but rather what weapon do I use on X profession for big damage.
>>2409050when were you pretending, you bitch about factions every day
I sold a name for hundreds of armbraces!And yet still not enough for the zaishen title...
>>2408773I don't dislike it that much because it isn't bullshitty, you just need be able to pull smartly. It's not easy, especially the room where you have to be really careful not to aggro about half a dozen elementalists at once and get your entire party lmao'd in one big fireball.Gyala Hatchery can fuck right off. If it wasn't for the exploit path I would just end my Factions campaigns there. The NPC behavior actually works well in that case except it's entirely to your detriment, because the hatchling turtles are literally coughing babies and since they're the weakest, the enemies ignore everything you're doing and beeline for them. I hate this mission done the intended way because it's just defending constant zerg rush where if you don't body block with perfect awareness for 20 minutes, you are fucked. That mission was just designed to frustrate players.
>>2409181I know, but it's boring playing the same thing on every bar no matter which prof you're playing.For scythe, profs will play differently, with Dervish doing enchants and teardowns, or stacking enchants that deal damage aoe per swing.Warriors mainly doing adrenal scythe attacks while unenchanted (or just receiving enchants from party members that they're not tearing down), mainly using tactics skills to build adrenaline, and having access to things like protector's strike for a spike.and Assassin scythe builds tend to be using things like Grenth's Aura to bypass Shadow Form damage cap.Each is a distinct enough playstyle to keep it interesting.
What's in the new build?
>>2409385new dungeon fixes
48868-9M?C7-2F81K-R9PBM-BRMRCa mysterious code appears... you must crack it first... and swear on your life you will NEVER badge
>>2409424what are you gonna do if the person badges?What if they get the veteran badge?
>>2409569nothing dude, it's Hhave fun
this strikes fear to the hearts of anonsone man babbles about factions being bad to this very day
>>2409736>one manthere's more than one
why are so many dungeon staff skins locked to primary attributes only.there's some cool skins but useless because you can't get them in the attribute you want for AnA/Adept heads.
>>2409736>mfw I load up my 7-smiter party and all of them have Ray of Judgement
>>2409132People will always rush for the lowest effort, highest reward option no matter how boring it is. That unfortunately happens to be daggers for those two.
>>2408960how am i supposed to invent some kind of high dps build nobody heard of by sunday
>>2410077consider all the skills that have been buffed since reforged started, metas haven't been updated for years so there's bound to be some builds that have good damage that are not known right now.
>>2409424It's used up. But what was it?
>>2410077who said anything about inventing a high DPS build? If you want to compete in the DPS category I wish you the best of luck, but considering last week the top 3 DPS were less than 10k off from each other you're in for a tough time.Creative build category was like #6 for DPS he just had a build we thought was cool. The effective build category basically won by default because it was curse necro in a physical heavy party and nobody else played a serious supportive role.
>>2410219ty for replying that someone used it lol I was beginning to wonder. That was the bonus character slot, Wawaa won during Urgoz last week but wanted to give it away on thread.
>>2408960Do you redeem the code in-game or through the store?
>>2410234In-game, go to character select screen and click "Edit Account" in bottom left, then "Manage Access Keys" after that add key
>>2410246so i can idle and PERHAPS be lucky enough to claim a keyit would be a shame if somebody dumped a char slot or storage tab key!
>>2410224oh I actually tried several characters until the game said I did too many requests.. ironically I did A-G then went numbers 1-0, and then worked backwards from Z.If I'd tried 1 more letter before switching to trying numbers I'd have had it, but at the same time.. I don't need anymore character slots, so I guess I'm glad I didn't get it.plus I badged to see the new dungeon
>>2409186Sir, you forgot your medication today.
>>2409321>I don't dislike it that much because it isn't bullshittyIt was pretty bullshit to begin with because you had to babysit two nerds with a death wish but now you also have to babysit your heroes who as soon as you blink will rush off to kill that spirit of Life on the other side of the room.
What year present should I turn these into
>>24111896th because tonics are fun and cool
I gooned my dick raw
>>24111897th cause there's new minis since last year
someone with too many accounts and no life bought out just about every worthwhile inscription from the trader
>>2411124Somebody is doing the complaining
>>2411355We have an inscription trader?
>>2411515meant to write insignia
>>24111897th for the ultra rare minis
I used to think the island PvP outposts were entirely disconnected, but you can actually see the Zaishen Menagerie from the HA outpost.
gang I'm thinking about anni weapons - I got a couple most important ones like scythe, hammer spear, sword for sure next one should be mesmer shield, otherwise what else is good? sin bow? derv staff? talk to me
finally, aint messin with unlucky
>>2412080Ele axe. Mesmer shield is great.
>>2412135my ele is permapre though
>>2412117>kurzick
>>2412080Rit bow is great with spirit's strength
>>2412188Make a second ele if you think double dragon pet ele is a fun idea.If not, there's next year.
>>2412286based, Kurzick armor looks better
this worth anything?
>>2412541The mods are perfect and can be removed if you want them.
>>2412541sundering mod is the only good thing
>>2412293rits cant keep up with pure bred rangers so i don’t know why they even bother
>>2412566let them have it. rits don't have that many fun elites of their own
>>2412589it's not that they don't have good elites it's mostly that 2 of them dominate. SoS and STI've had fun in DOA with DWG before though
>>2412688I like how the devs are buffing underpowered skills, but they should address overpowered ones too
https://youtu.be/kBtU0zSBcos
>>2412703nah I prefer not gutting established builds but rather making other builds look like fun that you grow into them.
>>2412703That would be best but today's gamers will drop a game the second nerfs affect them, the GW1 playerbase being no exception. The current devs will play it safe by buffing everything else.
>>2412703The EotN skills that you can use on every class should never be better than the equivalents that are class-specific.
>>2413027Eotn pve skills should be restricted to their factions' areas
>>2413378The monkey's paw curls and now they are only available as a temporary replacement skill when entering a dungeon, with 2-3 assigned to each one.
>sweatlordsglad you autists are a minority
>>2409132You forget Necro dagger and that bored Paragon dagger users
>>2413511cool vaguepost
>>2413514well, if I was using daggers on a Para I'd still be primarily doing imbagon/HR based builds and just using dagger fast autoattacks for adrenaline.necros.. I don't have soul taker casue I almost never play my Necro.
>>2412703they're too pussy but it's the right thing to do
>>2413649Congrats i knew i should have logged on today. How long did you hold halls?
>>2413751>How long did you hold halls?yes
make 'em say UNNNNNNNNHUNNNNNNNNNNNNH
>>2413818EZ WINS
>>2413826damn hey thanks for the key
>>2413905Yep no problem, that was the free mercenary hero slot, thanks for replying it was claimed.
>>2413986wait I lied, that was Xunlai Material Storage Expansion I got my notepad all messed up.
>>2412556should run vamp on sword sundering is only really useful on hammer
I continue my first playthrough and do we ever get to fight the charr again after the beginningish of prophecies. I feel like I took an insane detour with how it's all been about kryta and ascension
>>2414407yes
>>2414419Oh thank god.
>>2414429The story doesn't come around back to directly saving Ascalon if that's what you're asking. The Flameseeker Prophecies do not concern the fate of Ascalon, only foretell the destruction as a catalyst. Honestly, the plot can be a little confusing, so it's sometimes helpful to talk to the mission info guys in every mission outpost. They tell you exactly what's happening.There IS a quest named The Last Day Dawns which sees you return to Ascalon to help out Adelbern, but I won't say more because it's a spoiler. Just ask us about the post-Prophecies quest chain when you finish because it's not immediately obvious that it exists. And prepare your anus in advance because it's going to get destroyed.The charr do obviously feature prominently in the GW2-tie-in Eye of the North though since they have to set them up to be included in GW2.
>>>/r9k/84474729They don't care!
>>2414466I seee, thx
>>2414466it does tie in, because the Titansare the "New gods" for the Charr, and all over the northlands there are Titan Effiges. It's touched on again in Nightfall in the Realm of Torment, and EotN has a quest tying into the Titans and then the whole Charr Civil War started by Vvatlaw Doomtooth's son, which that name is the name of the scout who first is encountered in Presearing Ascalon. it's kind of an interesting relationship, in which the Charr rebels make it known in no certain terms that their alliance with you is temporary and only used to get an advantage against the Shaman caste and their "new" "new gods", the destroyersThey have no regrets about taking Ascalon, they consider it their homeland that humans usurped.They only have qualms about serving beings as gods who are not actually gods
>>2414487Assuming you're still working at Ascension, this is what you might have missed out in the world up to that point. The Prophecies are well known but poorly understood.
>>2414494I'm not saying the Flameseeker Prophecies do not tie in to the story of Ascalon. As I've said, it was the catalyst for the events, and you can consider the resolution of the Prophecies coming full circle, e.g. the effigies. However, the Prophecy itself does not concern the ultimate fate of Ascalon.
>>2413514really when I think about it, while warrior dagger feels pointless because hammers and scythes are way more fun and still effective.Ranger dagger is worthwhile because bows fucking suck, and since expertise makes 5 energy skills cost 2 energy and unlike scythe and hammer all dagger attacks are energy.. ranger's the best fit for them aside from primary assassins.
I know it's just normal, but I was having fun playing scythe warrior with the anni scythe
>>2414767Also tao being per hit damage synergizes nicely
>>2414494>They have no regrets about taking Ascalon, they consider it their homeland that humans usurped.Europe is rightful Islamic clay!Sasuga, ArenaNet.
we are an sc guild
a*
we are temporarily a pvp guild but only until wednesday then we are back to being DEAD
>>2415983>>2415988>>2416013Shut the fuck up, idiot.
TY fren :3
>>2416142huh, seems like winners aren't wanting the character slots, they might be more willing to pounce on name changes considering the 1 word names are still somewhat new
I'm down to getting multiple mesmer shields, have 3 for fire, lightning, and earth armor. I should get a 4th just doing a few extra things like getting infused running Iron Mines and Ring of Fire which I figured I might as well do cause WiK stuff has mursaat and jade constructs.Do I go with cold armor, slashing, piercing, or blunt?
>>2416489Piercing, imo
>>2415306yeah so.. I need to get me some good daggers for my ranger now, I almost regret customizing my glacial blades on my assassin as soon as I realized I had Q9 glacial blades.. but they look so good I just went for it, despite my assassin already having a decent pair of crescent blades.I was thinking just buy another set but then I see people selling Q12 glacial blades for 55A so nope I think I'm priced out.Warrior I'll want a nice scythe I think I've been having fun with scythe warrior, hammer warrior, dagger ranger, and hammer monk.It's a shame they gave ranger a sword rather than daggers. Sword fucking sucks.all I really do with it is run a beastmaster build while autoattacking and using sun and moon slash.Maybe I need to throw a lot into tactics since I have to use a tactics shield anyway.But as of now I just think.. go daggers for ranger.
