Ghost of Starman posted:To be clear, do you mean I should run the... whatever, the Chapter that is currently available? Or that I should buy all the LS3 stuff? Your assumptions are correct. I would buy all the LS3 content asap, not just the most recent chapter. I think the maps are fun/good, there is very rewarding zone-specific currencies to earn (albeit time gated) and the story content itself is notably better (not saying much). Also, oakheart's reach (a mastery you can unlock with ep 5) is incredible. It's basically a batman style grapple that will attach to any surface within 2000 yards or so. Only works so far in the ep 5 map, but totally worth the effort.

It's unironically cool that they apparently just pass out "here, be level 30" scrolls to any character you have on your account, even if you were inactive for literal years.

Guild is always preferred, but if no one is around (a rare occurrence) don't forgot you can start a group in the group finder. It doesn't take more than a few minutes to get a full party most nights for stuff like this.

How are the new WvW rewards?

The new rewards are Good but adding the long-term reward structure to WvW 5 years after launch is a little awkward. And it doesn't look like they've learned what the sPvP team has (or are unwilling to apply it yet) since the final tier repeatable Ranked PvP chest now keeps rewarding Ascended Shards of Glory, but you don't get any more tickets repeating the WvW one. Though it resets weekly so that might be less "wasted" effort.

Holy poo poo raids are hard. Thanks for taking me and showing me the ropes, now I know what to do. I just need to work on better gear; sadly I'm being limited by mats on converting my ascended armor to Viper's.

What's the fastest way to get Hero Points? I really want to try out Reaper spec, but I have like no HPs on my Necro because I got her to 80 and moved on to the next character.

Sometimes there are HP trains on the various HoT maps. DS also has seven that are decently easy to get during/immediately after a meta run.

If you do enough WvW, you can also use Proofs of Heroics to pretty much instantly max out Hero Points.

Would like to put up a "What the hell is happening" Goon raid group together. We talked about this in guild chat, there were a few interested we might need like about 6 more of you. Someone with experience that can lead us would be really amazing as well! If you are interested answer to this and/or contact me in game (captainweedo.7491)

Depending on what time you raid, I'd be interested in joining up. I can't join the SFD one because it's way too late on a work night for me, unfortunately.

Join GOON and SFD. You can see and interact with both chats. Sometimes SFD weekend raiders need bodies and you could ask to join that.

I'd like to thank everybody who "helped" with Hearts and Minds, by which I mean I'd like to thank everybody who sat with me in the penalty box, and also the one guy who did the whole fight by himself while our dead asses watched from the big reset mote in the sky.

I've never looked into how to join SFD, i've been in Goon Squad since launch but never bothered join Stafeet cause I didn't know anyone from that circle. But I'd be ok to join for the convenience for sure, specially now that the game has less activity than back then would prove useful to find people to do stuff with.

I've played many times with SFD anyway, usually the best groups i've seen in the game. I'm just a filthy casual and thought they were only accepting hard core people or something. Early on at launch there was like 4 guilds and I was glad to be in the main Goon Squad that was enough for me.

Just call Arus fat and you are in. It's sometimes tough because he is so very rude to Don, who is only a gentleman in return, but it's a good group of peeps. The hardcore raid guild that checked your gear was separate.

In fact, we take an unusually and medically unhealthy amount of pride in how much we suck. Cletus' big achievement for 2016 was learning how to eat vegemite toast simultaneously while raiding so that's pretty pro I guess.

I'd totally be down to help with this, I've got gear from doing fractals but little to no raid experience. I can guarantee I'm not qualified enough to lead this but I've got enough experience to help with tips and tricks or something like that maybe. I can also most likely get my fiance to come along, and shes a lot better at this game than me.
