Degs posted:As for engi, I was wondering why he felt just substantically weaker than my ele. Turns out when I left he was in full MF gear and I never reselected stats for his gear. Wheeeeeee grenades for daaaays Engineer does great with condi builds, and pistol/shield (or pistol/pistol) are the weapons of choice. Dire fits in pretty well with that, though not as good as Rabid or Sinister would.

Degs posted:I also got the dire ascended pistol from a dungeon pvp track. Is there a way to make it better? You can change stats on ascended weapons/armor in the Mystic Forge. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Anthology_of_Heroes Would need a weapon crafting tradeskill (weaponsmith, artificer, huntsman) at 400 to make a Sinister inscription though, they're account bound.

Other stat combos aren't. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Orichalcum_Imbued_Inscription http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ascended_Inscription etc. Also note the TP price difference between crafted and salvaged inscriptions, e.g. a Berserker inscription alone is nearly 8 gold at minimum in materials, but you can pick up, say, http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Ebonblade for 5g.

I'm trying to decide between making a Warrior or a Guardian. I want a heavy armor class that is p. survivable - my main characters are Ranger and Necromancer, and while I know that nothing will be as tanky as a Necromancer, I'd like something in the same ballpark. Anyone have a suggestion for which of the two I should make and boost?

Guardian has block(s) and a bunch of incidental healing, and low health. They take a bit more effort to be tanky, but if you put in that effort they're really hard to kill. Warrior has has more passive defense with high health and eg. healing signet. It's still very fun to play and potentially shits out might at an alarming rate. You probably want both anyway.

Update from the smiley dude himself on unlocking elite specs.ColinJohanson posted:Unlocking your elite spec is a training line in your training panel that costs hero points. You do need to have trained all the existing training lines before you’re allowed to put hero points into your elite spec.

Wait, does that mean it's going to take about 400 hero points to train an elite spec?

Schpyder posted:Wait, does that mean it's going to take about 400 hero points to train an elite spec? Sure does quote:It’s 400 points total to unlock everything in an elite spec training line – I just can’t remember off hand how many points folks have currently if they have done all the existing ones, but it’s right around 200. The rest you’ll need to earn in jungle to unlock the deeper skills/traits/etc. in the training line. Hope you weren't planning on playing all your alts.

Keep in mind that as he said, each hero challenge in the expansion gives you 10 hero points. You can create an alt, tome theme to 80, have all of your base profession skills unlocked, and then unlock your elite spec in the four new zones. You don't need to world complete or even touch the old zones. GI_Clutch fucked around with this message at 16:55 on Oct 20, 2015 |

Doesn't make it suck less for people like Schpyder that play their dozen alts regularly. e: actually maybe you aren't the best example Schpy given they all have 100% map completion

It really screws over Thiefs and just solidifies the idea that the dodges should have been part of the base class and not grand master traits.

At least I didn't retroactively screw myself by unlocking every traitline on all alts. Just by getting every skill. While it's a shame I can't dick about with a half-traited herald from the get go, the '100% MC = half an elite spec wtf' guys in that thread are hilarious.

Mercurius posted:It's all going to depend on what each scavenger hunt entails, really. Well, if they're anything like the scavenger hunt collections that exist now, they'll each have about 25% things you've already done or do regularly, 70% things that are fun to seek out and can have a couple knocked out in an evening, and 5% of things that require a specific chapter of LS2 and ~15 hours of difficult challenge with a full party to attain.

This might mean daredevils won't get their new dodge stuff for a while, which is pretty lol considering everyone else will get their gimmick immediately. It's unfortunate that Thieves only actually have 2 trait lines to slot until Daredevil is added in HoT, but that's the price to pay for being the cool ninja dude.
