This is what I got from the statement as well. However, I would definitely run claw of jormag with MF gear on just for killing all the trash, just for all the extra loot and the chance at rares then switch to my regular gear for phase 2.
Man… Some of those female armors.
yea where and what is that from? ive never seen that armor
chest is from gem store, pants are vigil.
nobody knows about the pants cause coats usually cover it up, and gem store is 500 gems lol.
I use those pants on my human engineer. They look much better on female Norn IMO.
Also, been running some dungeons here and there. Die once in a blue moon, they’re still boring as all hell. Oh well, I’ll grind them out for gear anyway. I should do Arah one of these days.
If not I can just play Vindictus for the bosses, fuck Nexon though.
I’ve been spending the last few days doing PvP. Nobody’s ever on CoE. I want the CoE dagger really badly. -_-
I’ve been trying to bunker guardian with mace/shield and greatsword. It’s feels good to see a shit-ton of conditions on me magically turn into boons. :lol:
Don’t waste your time with CoE for that dagger, either buy or craft a Mystic Spike, it’s exactly the same, and oddly the only Mystic weapon that isn’t blue - I have 2 of them. They’re also pretty cheap to make, it’s mainly the 50 skill points that makes the price around 6-7g
I’m mostly enjoying WvWvW at the moment, been having some fantastic solo camp raids and small commando group keep takeovers with my thief. At the moment we (Tarnished Coast) have a pretty decent match up against Crystal Desert and Yaks Bend, the fighting has been non-stop all night and so far we have a slim lead, but it’s a close game and I’m looking forward to seeing how it plays out.
I’ve probably been running around with you out there.
What’s your character name?
Thanks dude, you saved me having to go through CoE like 4 more times.
I only needed to spend a little more than 2 gold for the ingredients and remaining Mystic coins for the dagger.
I tried WvW out for the first time today. Shit’s fun, but since my guild right now is inactive, I feel like I’m not getting the full experience. Plus I don’t have a full exotic set, so my stats aren’t as optimized.
If you’re not playing a thief you’re not getting the full WvW experience
Shadow Refuge is the shit. AoE 10 second stealth (or 13 if you’re traited for it) on a 60 second cooldown.
I agree, my thief is the only thing i can tolerate playing in WvW, and dagger storm is OP as shit, lmao. only thing that scares me are 2 handed sword warriors, they can 2 shot me.
I don’t get one-shot or two-shot by anything (yet), but then I also don’t play a glass cannon thief. I’m a P/D thief with massive amounts of condition damage, power and vit. Dagger Storm can be amazing if you’re working on a huge crit build, but I have a preference to Thieves Guild for its single target damage and just hilarious crowd control skills (come on, I laugh when I suddely see my target get yanked half a mile back by a scorpion wire) it also provides a distraction and keeps me from being hit whilst also allowing my elite skill to deal damage. I run solo a lot and look for enemy groups and use C&D as my primary source of stealth. Refuge is great, but unless I make a huge mistake, I’m requiring it less and less; I’m considering swapping it out for some form of imobilisation.
I just got this game, I like the fact that it has no monthly fee.
so looks like the game will have gear scaling after all…kinda lame. these new ascended items have better stats than current exotics.
The agony debuff sounds like the exorcism stat in dfo. Basically to get farther in the harder dungeons you need more of the stat so you don’t suffer the debuff or else you practically were useless. I personally hate that kind of stuff because it seems like a really artificial way to limit the player.
oh man DFO, i havent played that in a looooooooong time, lol.
I ain’t tripping. They’re only adding rings and back pieces next patch.
I don’t really have too much issue with gear scaling, my only issue is how the agony debuff comes into play with infusions or on the piece itself, it’s seriously going to spur a trend of exclusion where parties won’t want to take certain people who have below X level of whatever they deem to be correct.
