Someone asked me to post my boonripper build soooo here it is! I get around 80 in stronghold, and WAY more in conquest. I got 319 my last round :toot:



I'm tempted to swap bitter chill (spite 1,3) for Spiteful tasisman (spite 1,1) As well as swapping out curses for soul reaping, but this setup has been working for me so far. I would use a sinister amulet but im broke as gently caress :shrug:

E: also grenth runes

80 or 319 what?

There are several areas in Dragon's Stand where you can find them, including a few patches where there are 5 or 6. They're still exceedingly rare compared to the others.

I'll try to make a map if I do DS tonight and maybe we can have a goon project to fill out the spots. I don't think they're random tbh.

I think you get more pods when more optional events get completed. I've been in poorly-organized maps where the three or so pods around the wyvern in the tiger area don't spawn.

80 boons removed in an average stronghold game, usually way more in conquest. The round before I posted that I removed 319 boons.

Are you absolutely sure that you want to pass up both Signets of Suffering and Path of Corruption in what is said to be a boon removing build?

Yes on the signets of suffering, and no on the Path of Corruption. Just swapped it :v:

Fractals are now one island instead of three and fifteen minutes rather than fifty. I don't really think it's that surprising they nerfed the rewards. Disappointing, but not surprising.

They are? Holy cow that's great. But now it's not really worth the trouble of putting a group together then. Make a 1-person version maybe, then let groups do 2 stages.

I ping between 200-300ms in NZ and have to say GW2 plays remarkably well. Barring the once in a blue moon "I swear I dodged that Tequatl wave" I've never really felt hamstrung by my connection speed. It's just that sometimes interacting with select objects, like jump pads, has a tendency to be a little more finicky. Or I just suck at clicking on things.

Pretty much, if you've played with a ping like that youll know that sometimes interacting with stuff doesn't behave as normal.

Now do it 50 times in 2 minutes.

Well, when I pulled the PSU out, it was rattling. Shook it around a bit and a decent-sized chunk of solder fell out. Whether that was the proximate cause of a short or merely blown off of something else blowing up, I couldn't say.

I think it only burned out one of the rails, one of the LEDs on the motherboard still lights when it's hooked up, but it absolutely will not turn on.

Go on Craigslist and buy a used machine from some college student, it costs like half as much and it's (more?) guaranteed to work.

Just make sure you wipe the hard drives and clean install the OS to get rid of the inevitable malware infestation.

Which is exactly why ANet dropped the XP and gold reward from them. That was the point.

I'm hoping they'll revamp in and return the gold rewards at some point in the future. Having fewer people running dungeons means they don't have to deal with as much whining, I expect.

The point of them nerfing gold and xp for dungeons was to get people to no longer do content within the game? That makes no sense. Just straight up remove them then and focus on fractals.
