Imo, real healer QOL would be to see condis in squad ui.

The vial is a jewel that is used to craft the infusion, you simply tried placing the wrong type of an item into your equipment. For crafting the actual infusion, you place the vial into the mystic forge with some crystals, mist essence and a +9 infusion that adds stats. edit: I also gotta wonder what wiki you're reading as this information was available in seconds by going to the vials wiki page.

And of course, I'm the opposite. I effortlessly hopped to WoW after experiencing PoF (and of course because new expansion launched). I still play but not as much. If open world mobs were to be made harder like many repliers seem to dream of (which means 1/2 playerbase dying most of the time to the mob, not just downing, outright dying), I wouldn't be able to enjoy open world anymore. Don't you get tired of whacking mobs all the time? Might as well put a target dummy or combat simulation that gives loot after it dies in middle of LA. Don't you get enough combat satisfaction in fractals or raids? I just don't get you people. To me whacking mobs becomes boring quickly, especially when I'm not there to whack anything. In personal stories, combat is (to me) just a way to gate my progression. What is so fun wasting time on AI? Even punching a bag irl is more understandable because it affects your body in positive ways. Maybe I just wouldn't be able to understand. Either way... what you said goes both ways. You can opt out of combat in OW by playing stealth builds very easily, capped concentration should let you mine a couple nodes as a thief or scrapper and should even give you time to mount up before stealth fades. As combat is the only reason why we even put clothes on our characters in this game, I find it very strange that getting into brawls is perceived as a problem anyways, isn't that kinda the point of the game? Are you sure that a combat focused MMO is what you actually even want to play if you find it boring? I've met a lot of people in Elite Dangerous who actually wish to play Universe Sandbox but for some reason buy a game where all the space ships come equipped with weaponry when bought, then complain when anything or anyone attacks their ship. This reminds me a bit of that.

Just do the lower tier ones, that's where you're supposed to train for the higher ones. Fractals are supposed to be the hardest 5 man content, so imo it's to be expected that you're gonna have to challenge yourself under pressure a bit. You're gonna get more surprises as the tier goes up btw, many bosses gain new mechanics that you don't see on the lower tiers and the combinations of instabilities will force you to think up completely new ways to beat some encounters :)

Quoting from last thread, ANET should sticky this stuff on the front page. I've quit playing a couple MMOs in the past only because of patching issues. I have to do this edit after every patch now or the launcher either doesn't start or the download gets stuck at some random %, so it might be a good idea to make a shortcut to the hosts file to save some time and clicking if you run into this problem after every patch as well from now on.

Scrapper is a viable support for 5 man pve tho, pop is almost op combined with cleansing field, fumigation and cleanse gyro.I'd say that it's a lot harder to play than most other supports tho, as you're pretty much playing pvp with your targeting circles but instead of killing people you're healing em. Some fractals also spam so much chilled condi that you can provide perma alacrity for the party during those encounters, and We Bleed Fire instability is a nice source for aegis.

It's definitely the hardest to carry, as there are plenty of times when people have to split up and take a lot of damage if they don't know what they're supposed to do. The solution is for people to learn how to play instead of tuning anything down tho, as I'm quite sure one person being able to carry a whole crew through t4s, who also ignore all mechanics doesn't do good for the overall skill level of the players. These days people are also expecting a healer to be able to carry them through anything, and I could definitely see the anger and frustration during the week when SP launched when suddenly the normal method stopped working. The normal method being "pile meat on the thing and wait for it to die" Same thing happens when there's instabilities that most people don't know how to deal with, like pugging t4 swampland with outflanked + toxic sickness + boon overload for example.

You're asking for an additional form of punishment to be added on top, could you elaborate what you meant by it? If you don't wish to spend the time, I already stated that you can kick if the party isn't up to training that person, I don't understand what caused the confusion about this. I also never said anything about you advocating for getting rid of vote kicking either.
-
Imo, if someone is repeatedly failing mechanics, they can be actually helped to learn them instead of punishing, we do this a lot in the groups I'm running with a pretty good rate of success. If the party doesn't wish to do so, there's always the option to vote for a kick, it's simple, fair and seems to work just fine.

Constantly crashing under heavy moment
Tiilimon.6094 replied to insistent.8369's topic in Account & Technical Support
I had the same sort of problem doing world bosses after the halloween patch hit, turns out that the fix for it was reinstalling the same gpu drivers that I already had. No crashes after that. I of course removed all addons before that as I thought it must be the hook for sure, but turns out they still work just fine after that gpu driver reinstallation. -
With real money involved. Chak Egg Sacks go for ~200$ I think that's a whole other topic, as such things are against TOS."You may not sell or auction any Game(s) accounts, characters, items, coin or copyrighted material, nor may you assist others in doing so." But the trades arranged outside of the game for the ingame currency are totally legit, that's what we were talking about here afaik.

I can confirm that what roughneck posted worked for me, awesome! -

Yep, OS rollback doesn't seem to work either. Wonder if it's only the 3 of us who got this problem, very strange. -
Launcher not opening

Just reporting that reinstalling the game did not fix the problem either, neither did changing DNS server. I'm also unable to use the repair utility, same connection problem when trying to launch it.
