  1. The main difference between minions and elementals is that one is permanent (until killed/sacrificed), the other is timed. I assume there’s an issue with the timer of elementals whenever they’re “collected” and they haven’t figured out how to deal with it. It’s probably the issue with keeping track of the time when the elemental is summoned but then stoved away when you mount up.
  2. Canach, for more than half the time, was the lapdog of a powerful female figure (Anise). Before that he was rescued from the asura by two powerful females (Caithe and Faolain). Also, his younger criminal days were stop by Kiel. Even now that he’s rich, he’s sharing his fortune with his “business partner” Sayida. I can see Sayida taking over the whole casino business, leaving poor cactus man crawling back to the commander in the upcoming releases. Gorrik has always been a footnote to Taimi’s success. And now he’s joining with Joey, I can see that he’s trading one female boss for another. And isn’t Phlunt a loser always?
  3. So it’s ok to kill inquests, charr renegades, nightmare courts, and sons of svanir but it’s not ok to kill bandits? Non-hooman lives matter too.
  4. You can also hide behind an ele or untamed. The hard part is to find one of them in game, especially untamed.
  5. I don’t see the point of labeling gunsaber as GS. Almost nobody takes the trait that buffs GS anyway (the trait below it is more appealing since the vitality bonus is too good). But yeah there has to be a way to sheath the gunsaber. It’s bad running around with sharp objects.
  6. Don’t bother to understand them. Those are overly nerfed and only show up in trash builds. Either play another class entirely or practice getting 4 orbs as catalyst
  7. How dare you label Jorms as female? It can be a serious crime in Tyria to misgender people! But seriously, a majority of important leaders are female (2 queen/empress, 3 out of 4 imperators, Pale Tree, 2 out of 3 order leaders, Caithe and Crystal Blooms, even Mai and Ankka of the aetherblade. And I’m sure Kiel is gonna take over the LA captain council soon). The smartest people in the world are also female (Joon, Taimi, Scarlet). So the poor heroic male characters have no choice but toiling under the heels of their powerful bosses. It’s gonna be a waste of Rama ends up being another Rytlock. I feel it’s better if they give him the same treatment as Zaeim, being left off in a foreign country.
  8. So far they have a lot in common. Both are extremely handsome, manly, rebellious, and certainly the epitome of the “alpha male” type of character. They’re also both warriors who refuse to run banners. They both have their own distinctive, unique feature (sohothin for Rytlock and that big black thingie on Rama’s head). In short they’re just super attractive! Character-wise, they have the most developments amongst their peers. Moreover, they’re amongst the most useful NPC teammates that accompany the Commander on crucial missions. In fact, the two characters both have mentors who end up being secretly evil (Bangar and Li), and consequently, both Rytlock and Rama are forced to dispose their father-figure. Both our heroes are romantically involved with a bossy female partner (Crecia and Min) with whom they grew up under the mentorship of aforementioned evil father-figure. Interestingly, both these female partners become the successor of the aforementioned evil mentor and end up being the superior officer of our heroes (Crecia is now the Acting-Imperator of Blood Legion and Min is the Acting-Minister of MinSec). Overall, we can see that Rama is being built up to be a Rytlock 2.0. Now let’s look at what happens to Rytlock after Crecia took over Blood Legion. The once heroic charr now becomes whipped and he is being kept on a leash by his female-boss/wife(?). Poor Rytlock has to sneak out to attend his teammates’ weddings and is living in constant fear (of his wife) and boredom (of the desk-works). Is that what awaiting Rama once the next expansion is over? Please ANet, don’t let Rama be a whipped under Min’s tyranny. Let him run free and explore Tyria with his fellow detectives. Keep Rama great!
  9. It was a conspiracy! Imperator Ruinbringer was assassinated by the traitor Stoneglow and the United Legions. We need to court-martial Stoneglow and Brimstone, and dispose the rest of the turncoat United Legions. Make the Dominion great again!
  10. I can’t see how zerker is War/Ele. It doesn’t have the versatility that ele is known for. Berserk mode is kinda like shroud already. In addition, the rage skills can provide “life force” to extend zerker mode.
  11. Using the dual class system from the first game, I feel like zerker is War/Necro, SB is War/Guard (even though the devs insist that it’s War/Mes), and BS is War/Engi (or War/Necro). So the next elite spec can either be War/Thief where the warrior sneaks behind enemies using trickery, and shoves the princess wand up the enemy’s derrière, or a War/Ele that focuses on getting in and out of downed state, is able to swap between FOUR weapon sets and uses staff for terrible range damage.
  12. As zerker, I can only spam decap all day and black banners (occasionally in group).
  13. Why not push it harder and make an ele/renegade hybrid. The F1-4 each summons a stationary totem (or the Nahpui celestial) that functions like the current jade sphere. Meanwhile the utility skills are changed and locked depending on the kind of totem invoked. When the totem is out, your energy gets drained and when it’s empty, totem is gone and your utilities revert to whatever you set up before fight. Of course you can also use F5 to “release” the totem.
  14. There’s also the addition of Plush Ess (what the heck is that name anyway?). Anyone knows what happens if we collect all 6 trinkets?
  15. As long as its F5 skill is still a targeting field, then the whole class is still a giant piece of waste matter that people often dump down their toilet. To make catalyst decent, start by making the F5 skills center around the ele and move with the player. I suspect that hammer 3 was supposed to be the class mechanic but then they ran out of idea for hammer skills and couldn’t further expand the class mechanic.
  16. Have you heard of the expression “you can’t polish a kitten?” The devs kept this in their mind when they designed this elite spec for elementalist. So of course catalyst can’t expect to have an energy bar as beautiful as druid’s, or at least as standard as warrior’s adrenaline track or revenant’s energy upkeep.
  17. Would love to see the F5 skill no longer require ground targeting and instead create a moving field around the catalyst
  18. When it says “hide behind a trash pile,” would it work if I hide behind a catalyst instead? Would that be harder as catalysts can be rarer than those debris piles the boss leaves?
  19. I’ve been playing 10+ hours a day since EoD release and have never beaten DE meta. Ironically, the failed attempts contribute a big chunk of XP that allow me to almost maxed out all mastery tracks (still need 2 MP for tier 6 turtle and I’m done). Half the time, map runs out of time. The other half, my PC crashes and D/C and I can’t get back in. It’s super frustrated. My eyes, hands, and back hurt from playing too much, and I think my mind is going insane. Sadly, I still have to beat the DE meta twice to get the items for virtuoso and vindicator’s weapons. Of course I will keep coming back again and again as GW2 is the only good thing that I have in my pathetic life. However, I sincerely hope that ANet would change the requirements for these weapon collections to some other map’s meta.
  20. Step 1: create an ele. The meta is female human but you can pick any race you want. Also, charr has best storyline for the first part of the vanilla campaign (before lvl 30). Step 2: play through the “tutorial” section until you gain access to Lion’s Arc. Step 3: put the biggest bags you have on the ele then move the storage items over to this character, as much as you can. Also, make sure to put the overflow materials in invisible bags/safe boxes so they don’t move when you sort your bag or accidentally hit the “to storage” button. Step 4: log out of this ele. You should only go back to this character whenever you need to pull out the items it carries. Step 5: look up how to play current meta classes like firebrand, renegade, scourge/harbinger, and machinist. Practice them as much as possible and do endgame contents with those.
  21. We all know that Kasmeer is only a portal-bot for Dragon’s Watch. So it doesn’t matter what spec she uses as she has only one job.
  22. Guess what, they could have made ritualist (or whatever name they choose to have for it) the elite spec for elementalist this expac. The class would be the mix between ele and revenant and it will be focused on juggling around the utility skills. Here, swapping attunement = invoking a new legend. The “legends” can be the four spirits from Nahpui mission in GW1 (kirin=water, bird =fire, drake=air, turtle=earth). When you swap attunement, your utilities 6-10 are replaced and locked with predetermined skills. These skills can involve summoning stationary spirits that function like current catalyst jade sphere as well as the current augments and core utilities spread across the attunements. However, this means there will be 8-20 new utilities and 8-20 new weapon skills. This is obviously too much so we’re stuck with the cesspool of filth that’s called catalyst.
  23. There’s already a “sword-saint” class in this game with a super complicated rotation of over 9000 steps. Too bad they’re busy spamming 4 in downed state because they get one-hit by almost everything in PvE.
  24. Recently I have seen mesmers placing portals near daily jumping puzzles to port people to random faraway spots instead of the end chest. I’ve also seen incidents where portals are placed on top of NPC for marionette and dragonstorm, as well as reward chests from meta events, to port others away from these objects. If you aren’t quick enough to retake the portal then it’s a pain to run back to the NPC/chest. So I’m curious if those actions violate any rule of this game. If so, under which category should one report those transgressions? I don’t think this is “scamming” though. Does it count as “harassing?” Also, how do I counter those dupe portal? Is there any setting that allow you to prioritize the NPC/chest over portal when pressing the interaction button?
