Get in the circle! What circle?


Recommended Posts

Your dead! 

What? What circle? WTF is going on? Lemme run the meta again and do the "mechanic"; kitten!

 

Get in the circle!

I see the circle!

Your dead!

What?!  WTF is going on!?

You spent a split-second recognizing that a circle exists for you moon-dance into.  NeXT tIMe jUSt GET IN THE CIRCLE and DONT THINK!

I get it. I got it. Got it! I get it. Lemme run the meta again and do the "mechanic"; kitten!

 

Get in the circle!

Wher.., I, Wha...

Your dead!

Ok. I get it. The circle is randomly placed and if I'm not lucky in my positioning and close to it, I'm dead.  Great "mechanic".  Much fun.  Can we talk about keycards now or should we discuss how bosses and mobs aoe vomit bull-kitten "mechanics" to troll the player base?  (on a side note, if I hear a youtubber say "mechanic" one more kittening time...im gonna...fffffff ! and dont get me started on breakbar bull kitten either!)

The OP is talking about the final boss where you have to get into shielded areas (similar to Nightmare Fractal), these spawn at random locations and only only have a few seconds to do it.

a few seconds?  if you dont react in a split-split-second. your dead. my god. what a pleasant time this game would be if i had a few seconds to react to all the aoe vomit.

....what?

Have you considered taking a walk, drinking some tea, calming down and then explaining your issue in a coherent manner?

Sorry, can't explain it.  You wouldn't understand.  You're just dead!  Just get in the glowy circle next time and don't think about it!

LOL! Thanks for the laugh, guys... I'm in stitches! 😂

It’s very clear what the ops issue is

They're not in the circle

Well... then I have an easy solution for that problem: just get in the circle and don't think about it!

 

That will be 500 gems,
Next!

Is there actually a message telling you "you're not in the circle, get in the circle"? Are you sure you're using masks and aren't killed by stacked haze?

its implied. after when your dead. from not being in the circle. and yes... the little rat tells you to get into the circle...just before your dead from not being in the circle.

The blue circle is outside of all the effects and stays around for a little while. It shouldn’t be too difficult to see and usually has a downed npc next to it to aid visuals. I know we are having fun with this, but in reality there isn’t an issue here I can see

Jokes and exaggeration aside, OP has a good point: sometimes the mechanics are visually drowned out by all the other visual effects, from players, from bosses, from the environment, etc. It's hard to tell what to do if everything on your screen is being annihilated by glowing particles.

One more request to ArenaNet to please, please let us have a slider to tone player/NPC effects down, similar to what just happened with the environmental effect slider (though to be honest, I can't tell what difference that made).

Do you mean the circle where you have the time to walk to it, drink some tea and have a quick nap before it trigger? 😄
