We have a /vm/ guild that has been playing together for 4 years now, if you would like to join simply post your IGN to thread.

>>2842073 Previous Thread

Our NF prog is running every saturday at 9AM EST, we're playing under a ruleset where the first 2 skills on our bar are randomly decided, and we need to create a build for that session using those 2 skills, I am posting weekly progress updates to thread for people interested in watching our progress.

We've also been doing weekly HA again Sat or Sun at 1PM EST abusing minion factory before anet changes their mind and minions become useless in PvP for another 20 years.

Pretty large balance patch and some new items added to shop, see change log here: https://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Feedback:Game_updates/20260826

Pirate Week starts on September 13th, farm your grog and laugh at all the players who yet again forgot to get their inf summon stone from last week's Wayfarer's Reverie.

I don't make the rules, but these are the rules

File: warrior.png (542 KB, 797x524)
542 KB PNG
all GW female character models are pure sex and there's really no reason not to pick them, but if you wanna play as the Hunchback of Necrodame or wide Conan, go ahead.
>>
>>2923521
Necro is either scene girl or Jared Leto from Suicide Squad; there is no in between.
>>
i will never play as a BITCH
>>
>>2923682
but anon, every character you play is a bitch
>>
>>2923682
idk your method acting is on point
>>
do people not use that gwmarket site? never get a bite then again I probably don't know how desired any of the stuff im listing is I just undercut people by 1 and hope for the best
>>
>>2923919
I just have an alt I park in kamadan to sell big stuff while I'm playing on main or doing something else. I really don't bother selling stuff often especially if it's like random ass mods that go for 1-2e. Can't be assed to do that shit anymore.
>>
>>2923919
With toolbox I'll sometimes just afk in kamadan while playing a different game. If someone whispers me or opens a trade window toolbox causes the GW window to flash and can even send windows notifications. Otherwise everytime I login I spend like 1 minute checking current listings on trade menu and sometimes I'll sell something there.
>>
>>2923919
having never used it, i will confidently tell you that it's like most low-volume markets and the listed prices stay listed because nobody fucking buys at that
>>
>>2923560
I like the gigachad strongman male monks
need a lot of beef to carry entire teams
>>
>>2925122
The ones that are at best 5'4*?
>>
>>2923521
male paragon and male dervish are very zesty, yes
>>
>>2925296
They gonna make that shit look GOOD
>>
Gonna start actually playing the necro I've had for ages. Which areas suck for playing mm?
>>
>>2925709
Nahpui Quarter, Ooze Pit, Oola's Lab, anything with lots of undead/ghosts (Kryta missions, SoO etc.), anything with Titans
>>
>>2925709
The last third of Nightfall isn't great for MMs. By then you'll have access to lots of alternative playstyles though.

LOG ON AND GRAB TODAY'S ZC IF YOU'RE A HAfag!
>>
So update tomorrow(inshallah)
What are we expecting
>>
>>2926865
more p2w and badly considered buffs
>>
>>2926865
- Inconsequential buffs to skills that nobody gives a shit about and will continue to not give a shit about.
- More mobile client updates that nobody gives a shit about
- P2W lockpick
>>
>>2926865
Last update was one week ago, not 2weeks.
>>
>>2926865
More cash shop items. You're not getting any major updates until the end of the year, maybe even past that.
>>
>spend hours trying out different Ele builds
>finally settle on 2-3 that play all right and do decent damage
>log into my daggerspam assassin out of curiosity
>my damage effectively doubles plus I can spam Save Yourselves making my team invincible
>same for my ranger daggerspam and TaO

Jesus the balance in this game is so fucked
>>
>>2926926
DD+pet+ebsoh my brother
>>
>>2926913
Technically we're more on track for make updates at the end of each month. We won't get anything big until the 30th I bet
>>

That's the Ele and Monk life. Everyone who takes your profession as secondary (or not at all) can do your role better.
>>
What more-difficult areas (farms, dungeons, etc.) do you like to do when you're bored and want to play GW?
>>
>>2926926
melee is just more fun to play with heroes
>>
>>2926934
Lately, I've been chipping away at getting my LDoA character's Devona to level 20.
>>
>>2926936
There's also a lot more support skills it gets to use. Splinter, SoH, judge's, withering aura all make melee go big. On top of that, the PvE skills you have access to are just busted and remove melee counters, so the balance point of more damage but more counters is obliterated
>>
>>2926930
>Call target
>Cast DD on pet
>Run backwards for some reason
>Realize that my retarded bird got stuck on geometry and is 100 yards behind the party
Also, I like that you'll auto cast DD on the nearest ally if you cast it without a target, but it's infuriating that the spell fails if the mob you're targeting dies.
>>
>>2926930
This and star burst were my most effective builds and yet they still pale in comparison to something like daggerspam. Too many ways in which DD can fail, plus it's way more awkward to execute
>>
>>2926971
Ultimately it comes down to what's fun. With meta hero builds, you can AFK and still win handily in most content, so either you create some off-meta Rube Goldberg machine or you play a build that you find enjoyable so you can pretend like you're making a valuable contribution to the team.
>>
>>2926971
I do think ele is weak and my biggest single frustration with it is cast times. Way too often do my targets die as I'm casting and so I end up doing very little damage. DD is at least a fun kind of retarded
>>
>>2927018
I was seriously considering an Of the Mesmer mod on my gear because I kept getting cucked out of Chain Lightning casts.
>>
>>2927028
If only there was a spell that was literally chain lightning but had a faster cast time
>>
>>2927035
My elite slot is already taken.
>>
>>2927038
Arc Lightning

>>2927038
Then perish

consider the following
>>
>>2927166
You won't need MoP when the mobs scatter from Balthazar's Aura.
>>
>>2927028
I like to play Mindbender on necro builds, you can stack it with Of Mesmer mod to roleplay as an FC mesmer pretty effectively.
>>
>>2926926
yeah and if you download a gay dating app right now you could get your dick sucked in under 20 minutes
sometimes you have to make a choice, and it's not about what's easy
>>
>>2927418
>We choose to suck these dicks in this general and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard
>>
i... became weak and bought the newest shop stuff (kits & bell). considering the time i wasted within this game already the money is practically nothing
>>
>>2928665
It felt dirty, but I did it too. Mostly just to give them some money, but the unbreakable kits are convenient. I don't use the devil's consumables.
>>
its nice the stuff is atleast redeemable on every character and they didn't do it the gay ass gw2 way where you have to inventory manage 1 item across 8 different chars or paypig even more for a shared inventory slot
>>
>>2928665
I did too. If the lockpicks good I'll probably get it too. Should have been a way to get them in game though. Maybe as a reward for certain levels of treasure hunter and wisdom and shit like that.
>>
>>2928665
buying shit keeps the game updated
>>
>>2926926
The game's balance is centered around PvP.
PvE falls apart unless you place a bunch of restrictions.
>>
>>2928768
>The game's balance is centered around PvP.
Hell yes, my time machine worked!

This game is balanced around who cries the loudest on the 2weeks discord and its a mess in pve and pvp want a good laugh look up word of censure spike

>>2928768
Izzy, they already forced you to split PvE and PvP skills. Don't make me get the paddle.
>>
>>2928768
it was centered around pvp and theyre slowly doing away with it.
>>
>>2930084
They did away with it when they made PvE only skills and never made pvp only ones.

Fuck talus chute vanq. That was awful

Any sisters up for Magmussy later today?

At reset?
>>
>>2934885
Sure
>>
>>2934878
Sure, I'll be running Over the Limit ele today, this dungeon has very few enchant strips as food for thought if anyone wants to run Arcane Mimic they could prob freely run it as well along with an elite of their choosing if they want to abuse some jank setups.

The guild would benefit from a female member, not for any important reason, just drama.

And the skills for next weeks session

Today was pretty productive we did both Jennur's Horde and Nundu Bay, we also did Dzagour Bastion as a bonus, and we stopped at Gate of Desolation mission. Pretty productive day.

Next week will be Gate of Desolation + a lot of side questing for treasure. I predict our prog will beat NF in the next 3~ weeks.

i remember said comic shop girlfriend from going to said comic book shop around 11-12 years ago (to play some tabletop game) and i have a very vivid memory of my cousin vocalizing a "i don't know why she is with him, he. is. a. DICK." when she got up for a minute after her floater boyfriend eons ago left the table at the time.
is he winning?
