There's always the special action key in T.O. so I'm not that worried there. Plus, Last laugh was never an issue for me. Been playing on my Soulbeast for fracs recently and using Moa Stance + Dolyak Stance vs Last Laugh helps. Looking forward to see if Toxic Trail will repeatedly trigger Afflicted tho :sweat_smile:

:love: the videos, think it was yesterday's swamp daily? Had no idea it was the lower tier T4 which had T.Trail + L.Laugh (was a pug group and they made the pick). It went well, but had one party member died at the final phase burn. Mainly I think it's because the boss's stomp (giant dark orange circle) overlap and covered all of L.Laugh indicators (lighter red circles). The player probably got knocked down right before the stomp and due to that couldn't dodge....that and no one tried to pick him up...probably :tongue:

I'm pretty sure if we hv group carry on from cm will be fine but the pug I was in was random pug for t4 only. So it's pretty much representing typical average pug group not from carry on from cm. Our chrono don't pull mobs and kept dying we were basically 4 men .. was tempting to go back to try with diff team but too lazyUr group was from cm?

More bearable? Does that mean Mossman showing up more often? :fearful:

Any chance you can get Anet and say Corsair to work together to release mmo mouse (schimitar based) and keyboard (RGB based) with gw2 logo on them? Wouldn't mind getting a pair!

I did spend $ on an mmo mouse very pretty with 12 buttons on the side .. unfortunately, I hv small hobbit hands (not hairy type) and the mouse is too big for my hand kept slipping out and I couldn't grip it at all. So I went back to the basic small mouse which is the cheapest in the market $10 lol. I hv everything set at default since start :p there was once I tried to set skills to shift 12345 but its only pve it doesnt need to be too hardcore to play.

Ben, I sincerely hope you will design high-level fractals around skilled players, not being so easily leeched by skillclickers.

:P my style hard to change and i am average player, not highly skilled player which represent most of the payer base in the game :)

And if i understand correctly u can clear raids and the cms(lag excluded). Ppl should take something from this...

The game is made such that it doesnt panalise players .. it allows enough breathing time generally for average player to take part. We see group with low men clearing bosses etc.. those are the hardcore skilled players xD. If dev made the game only cater for those players.. we won't be having the number of players we see today. Gw2 pve shouldn't be too hard esp fractal.

Was a random pick-up PuG for T4 (mes, dh, sb, druid and berserker). Went with the same strat :smile: moved clockwise slowly during minions phase (not sure if it was intended but it's a good thing the mobs was routed/came from 1 direction).

The mesmer in the video went (dodged?) anti-clock, got seperated from your group and unable to reunite afterwards cause of toxic trails :skull: RIP.

ya hehehe.. :) i do think it will be fun if the group can work well together. tht was why i picked the lower level to test it out ..@zealex i know what u mean i think but i thought better to divert ppl attention somewhere else heh.

I'm pretty sure clicking your skills has nothing to do with your skill level. Get it!

I think as long as you we are making fractal harder, we should also improve the rewards.

A friend once said this quote to me. Which I kinda liked ; "Kill one man, and you are a murderer. Kill millions of men, and you are a conqueror. Kill them all, and you are a god."

Need to do the extreme, to be recognised :tongue: Clicker is fine imo, but I must admit it's much more interesting say if Talindra.4958 plays the game using her feet like a DDR!

On another note, even a small fix on Last Laugh making it harder to break stability or making stability more effective will be helpful. Helps in making stability viable on the PvE content table just like reflects.
