Skyscale mount mechanics (not about timegate)
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Kidel.2057's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
This whole argument reminds me very much of the Beetle, honestly. People didn't understand it's niche, it was an effort to get it, then once they had it had difficulty with it. This time, though, we have plenty of time to get the hang of it before committing to it. So why go through the effort to get it if you don't think it's worth it. I've thoroughly enjoyed it. I enjoy the Griffon, but not so much the Springer. I will definitely make excessive use of the Skyscale. But then I don't equate faster with funner. -
Yeah, sorry, RNG is RNG. I got it with 5 keys from the War Eternal week 3 box, and the Hydra staff

So, what did you do this weekend in Guild Wars 2?
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to BadHealer.3608's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Friday I collected more scales.Saturday I finished collecting scales and started working on achievement progress to do medicineSunday I finished the sick skyscales just in time to start eggs after reset, the started all of the egg collections, and completed a couple while watching the video of WP doing the blind playthrough of the chapter I've avoided walkthroughs as much as possible, so I've been doing it a little slower. I've done pretty well, though, so far. -

So whats next you ask? (SPOILERS)
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Rikimaru.7890's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I'm not too worried about Corruption from DSD. My expectations are that DSD functions like Primortus, literally making life from nothing. He doesn't need to corrupt sencients because he builds his minions out of the water itself. -
New armour sets and still no good trenchcoat
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Jaffawer.4932's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
The Rogue coat is the only Trench Coat I've ever needed. Been wearing it on my main since the first week of the release -
Solutions to the Skyscale problem?
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Dragon Priestess.9760's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I think you're misunderstanding the design structure of mounts in this game. The Skyscale was very meticulously designed so that it has a reasonable place within the set, without stepping on anything's toes. It is actually quite easy to use and fly. The Spring is fast ascent, and the the Griffon is fast horizontal movement over empty space. The Skyscale is for precision ascent and traversal over empty space. This makes it slower, but infinitely more maneuverable. Also, I'm uncertain if you're misunderstanding or not, but it can't climb indefinitely. It's climb height is restricted in the same way its flight is. -
[Merged] Black Lion Chests are awful
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Critical Lag.9075's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
That's unfortunate that RNGesus denied you the thing you wanted with a measly 20 key attempt.I didn't have any interest in either the glider/backpack, nor the Hydra staff. I got them both from the 5 keys I received from the War Eternal week three chest. The moral of the story is, RNG is RNG Funny enough, I also got 5 keys from the War Eternal pack, but I'm holding on to them for the NEXT BL chest release, as neither the hydra staff nor the new backpack/glider of any interest to me. Kinda wished I would have had 5 more chances at the hummingbird, but whatcha gonna do :lol: I used them because I liked the Rare home instance mat possibilities, and even though I knew I wouldn't get them, I had to try. -

[Spoilers] Terrible story
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to De Bourgogne.9642's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
This is my issue too. I feel we are in Star Trek Voyager territory where random fan theories are being inserted. I do hope we arent about to explore Elder Dragon “mommy” issues soon... Kralk did say, "Mother" just before he died. -
[Spoilers] Terrible story
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to De Bourgogne.9642's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I was a little shocked by the fact that they brought her back in the very first moments of the story. They were at least clear that some amount of time passed since the previous episode. They've had time to grieve, just like we had. I do kind of feel like giving her a voice was weird, and made branding Caithe seem unnecessary, except as a gag for this, because when her flowers come back it's clear Aurene is ok again, but that's it. The only thing that disappointed me, though, was that we never got to actually control the ride while flying with Aurene. I wanted to be able to actually fly her, not just be there while she flew. I've been waiting since PoF to finally fly Aurene and it was nothing I was waiting for. -
The new charr female voice
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Thornwolf.9721's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I always find VA changes jarring. You get used to how someone sounds, their personality is exclusively portrayed through that medium. When they change it they might as well be replacing the character entirely. I did not enjoy that Rox changed. I didn't know it had happened before playing the season and hearing it. It was unpleasant. I feel like it will be even more jarring for the Commander since most of her voice will still be the other VA, for the number of lines a character says without an actual story happening. "Might makes right." -
Question about deleting a character.
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to mushroom.2491's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
an extra birthday present each year. This to me is the number one reason to maintain the character. -
Fall damage and Weyandt's Revenge
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Leo.3428's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
If you are especially good, or lucky, there are several points that you can move to, to avoid massive damage, rather than shooting for the end. It's also possible to avoid all the obstacles going down and take no damage, just shooting out over the water. -
more variety in character expressions/sentences
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to coso.9173's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Short of an unreasonable number of random lines for all 10 VAs, we're always going to have too few, such that we constantly hear the same things. I'm not arguing against it, exactly, just saying that bringing in the VAs for a handful of lines isn't worth it, and bringing in the VAs for enough lines to make it worth it is most likely prohibitively expensive outside of something that will include an income for the game. Then again I could be wrong considering the amount of VA including in each chapter without a specific income from those until after they're no longer live. -
Wait what! Most, but not all, can be right-clicked to immediately recieve its content. Does of course not work for stuff were a selection is needed etc. It was added while back, pre-PoF but post-HoT, iirc.And that's the second thing I've learned because of this thread, not counting the thing I learned shortly before... Playing since Beta...

Thanks for the purple mask, but....
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Chay.7852's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I was wondering if anyone was going to bring up the monitor. If you can, try viewing it from a different monitor make/model. All monitors present colors ever so slightly differently, it's possible yours is just adding a bit more red than should be the case. -
Are there any katana sword skins?
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to jcH.7109's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
Belinda's Sword is a straight up Katana. It's a Gem Shop Greatsword skin.If you're looking for a one hander the closest thing I know of is https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ceremonial_Sabre -
How do you like the new exotic breed mount skins?
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Cerioth.7062's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I like to see some sets getting completed, like the Spirit set that my Norn Warrior is sporting. Also the Cosmic set. I find the Sand set to just be amusing as well as the Exalted set, but I'm not interested in either. I wasn't a fan of the Metal beetle, and the continuation of that set hasn't changed my mind. I enjoy getting more unique mounts for Jackal and Springer, but I'd like to see them in the other groups. At the same time, I'm much less impressed with the unique Raptor. I will still most likely use it. My favorite skin from this license is definitely the skully Raptor, which I don't know the name of. -

Please, make the raids with an additional mode (solo)

With the close of another SAB season, I was wondering who Infantile Mode is really for. I suspect this is my answer. -
What new stat sets do you want to see?
Kal Spiro.9745 replied to Stand The Wall.6987's topic in Guild Wars 2 Discussion
I want Power, Vitality and HealingIf there has to be a fourth I don't want it condition based. Past that, I really don't care.
