Guild Wars II GAME RELEASE happened a while ago

This forum is specifically for discussing non-Mafia games
(board, card, video, we're not picky)
.
Playing
such games should happen in the Mish Mash forum, of course.

FERGUSON! Such a boss, having a crossing all to himself. I was leaning Crystal Desert. I highly suggest that one.

The Crystal Desert was awesome in GW1 though.


As cool as the name "Ferguson's Crossing" is, a lot of the other ones are cool too, especially with GW1 nostalgia.

I suggest editing the first post to make it clear we'll be in Crystal Desert.

Yes, but they're completely optional(obviously) and you can trade in-game gold for "gems"(the microtransaction currency) if you find someone who wants to trade them to you.

here are some screenshots of the items you can find in there.

The FPS problem is much reduced in story instances, and the Events are just the same ones repeated over and over every few minutes.


I noticed the exact opposite about story instances. And if you explore, the events don't repeat. Also, this is beta. If they repeat too much, tell them.

I'd rather they wait and fix the lot of things that need fixing and have a better game than release early and have a subpar game.

Since the game is designed that you can have any combination of classes and still complete stuff, it shouldn't be a huge deal what we roll. I'm planning on a Necro as my main, personally.

I mean other mafia members can just as easily make a separate guild. But my loyalty for the clan is greater than it is for just regular scummers.

Plus SDC fits the server "GATES OF MADNESS" perfectly;

Although still, I feel like going immediately to a server that's going to be high pop is a poor decision and we should pick something else.

You can still be in guilds across servers.
I know Fate/Socio will be hardcore WvWer's
perhaps we should just decide on a "sister server" for now?



Well, on the reddit server, it's quite possible that there won't be room in WvWvW if we wanted to do it. I went on a relatively low pop server compared to some for BWE3 and there were still long queues.

You can be in guilds across servers? I hadn't heard that.

I know you can have people on your friends list across servers for sure though.


Yeah, I knew that, and you could guest to the other servers. You just can't WvW on the other servers. If not for that, I'd be ok on a separate server, but I want to WvW with two different groups, which is why I want to get the groups on the same server. One is vehemently against GoM, and one is vehemently for it, so I'm a feeling a wee bit caught in the middle.

I'm definitely looking forward to launch. Not 100% sure of the server yet, but it will probably not be Gates of Madness, unless the rest of my other group has a change of heart in the next 12 hours.

What kind of necro do you like?


I've been running Scepter/Focus and either Axe or Dagger with a Warhorn.

Brandi, I ran past you last night and waved, but you ignored me :(

You could go to another 1-15 zone, 100% Lion's Arch and/or the other home cities, or craft and gather.

The intention is that the whole game is endgame. Doing dynamic events, world bosses(like Shadow Behemoth/Fire Elemental/etc.), dungeons. All of them can be done by a character regardless of that character's level. From what I understand, the DEs and bosses get more complex later. Other than that, I have no idea. It's kind of an abstract cloud right now.

Pretty much. There's the dungeons, but they're 5 people.

I'm not sure why everything everywhere exploded with "ERRHAGERRD GRINDING ASCENDED GEA WAH AGAINST ANETS PRINCIPLES WAH WAH," though.


Especially since that's totally wrong. Grinding to participate in content is against their principles, but grinding for aesthetic gear is completely different.

I have an 80 Necro and I just love it. Maybe it's because I adored my necro in GW1, but I really enjoyed it in 2 as well. I didn't even do that much in groups.

In post 893, xRECKONERx wrote:sooo what does gear matter?

If there's no direct endgame or tiered progression then what's the difference between exotic or super rare gear and normal gear? And if everyone scales up for PvP and normalizes the numbers why does gear matter at all since theres no endgame?


Aesthetics, mostly. Otherwise, it's dungeons/fractals. But aesthetics is the main one. You may not be able to get better statted gear, but you can sure as heck get better
looking
gear.

Yeah, I'm feeling the itch to get back into this after the year or so I've been away because I have always loved the world and lore of Guild Wars. Hopefully the Living Story season 2 stuff is better than the season 1 stuff, which was just a lot of collecting and very few actual quests?

It's 100% worth 10, I'd say it's also easily worth 15 for the deluxe, although the extras don't do a lot.

I'm back into this game again. I'm not spending a
ton
of time on it like I used to, but I'm finding some time to level an alt during the weekends, and my friends and i have a dungeon group. The dungeons in this game are great.

so I'm still not playing this a ton, but my (very small) guild and I are trying to open our guild hall now that Heart of Thorns is out. It's a really difficult mission with only the 4 of us who are regularly able to log in and work on stuff together. Would anyone be willing/able to help us out at some point?
