wow there's a whole lotta new posts in here! this is going to get buried fast but goons, if you're not in a guild/have been inactive for 3+ weeks THIS IS FOR YOUGOON officers posted:Hello goons! With the advent of Heart of Thorns we've run up against a familiar problem: Guild space. Due to the 500 guild member limit in place in GW2, the popularity of the expansion, and the sheer amount of goon activity, GOON SQUAD once again has less than 20 available guild invites. I strongly recommend putting in your application now, rather than later.

Tambaloneus posted:You'd think if anything those big angel wings I see all the char with would work as a glider skin. As far as I can tell it's just a skin that uses the back item, like the angel wings. The angel wings & the bat wings unlock associated glider skins e: and the feathered ones look goofy as hell

Time to make a positive post! Chronomancer is hella fun and Chronophantasma/alacrity brings back shatter burst in a big way. That is great news for me because I loving love shatter mesmer.

ATTN: GOONS: GOON SQUAD IS NOW FULL. Any members ticking over to 31+ days inactive will immediately be removed to make room for waitlisted goons. Invitations will be sent out as soon as they are available, in the order in which applications were received. If you are in Goon Squad and do not rep us I urge you to give your spot to new or returning goons that wish to be part of the guild's community. Thank you!

The last two nights we have had goontrains running as many hero points as possible (thank you so much Monorang, Hlatun and Schpyder) and I can safely say that without a mass of helpful guildmates unlocking hero points loving sucks. Even with a mass of helpful guildmates it was pretty brutal at times. I'm not sure it'll be possible a couple months from now.

Insert name here posted:So are there more Pact Tyria mastery points than are needed? Because if not that means if I want to get 100% masteries for Pact Tyria I have to buy the rest of season 2 that I don't have. It takes 49 Tyrian points to max out all 3.

The only problem I have with action camera is sometimes it doesn't want to let me actually target whatever I'm attacking (necessary for phantasms) and occasionally even after I have my mob targeted it lags a little. So like, I'll target a dude, hit my button, and get the "you must have an enemy targeted" error anyway.

Liberatore posted:Do you have autotarget enabled? I find it very useful for action camera. For instance, if I want to use Unrelenting Assault (which requires a target) on an enemy I'm not actually targeting, I just need to aim at said enemy and use the skill; it will temporarily lock on to that enemy and the skill will fire flawlessly. But it's not a hard lock, so you can aim at a different enemy and do the same thing, or aim elsewhere to lose target. If you need to keep a specific enemy targeted, you can do this and then press tab (with the default "next enemy" key binding) to lock on to that enemy. Oh wow is that how autotarget works? I've never used it since as far as I knew the only function was forcing me to heartseek directly into a mob/player instead of bravely running away Thanks!

Liberatore posted:That's how it works (kinda) if you don't use it with action camera. But with action camera it doesn't force a target unless your crosshair indicates you're aiming at an enemy. Trip report: you're my fuckin hero, dude

Yay! But it's okay Happyactionfuntime just took care of it! Also, I 100%ed Auric Basin and got... literally nothing. Aren't they supposed to give out stuff for the gift of maguuma exploration or whatever?

Four observations that may or may not help people:
Personally, I aim for gold in: Beetle Feast, Wings of Gold, Drone Race, Salvage Pit (this one is SUPER easy, especially if you're the only one in there), Tendril Torchers, and the Ley-Line Run. I usually get silver in Sanctum Scramble, Floor Is Lava, and Bugs in the Branches. The other ones I haven't really bothered with. Skaazi likes Fallen Masks but that's locked behind Exalted 2 so I haven't really tried it. Getting gold in adventures is mainly figuring out the most efficient route with the most shortcuts possible, and once you get it once or twice it's usually pretty easy to replicate. Anyway this is a lot of words I hope it helps somebody

Maybe I'll bring my necro to the next HP train. I 100%ed all four zones on my chronomancer but map rewards are still bugged so I got bupkis I hope they fix it before the Nevermore collection goes live, I don't want to do that all again so soon.

Both, however, are full, so if you pick one that gives another goon the chance to join the other And in answer to your question they are both very very active. ~120+ goons online per guild during peak hours.

Did you play thief before HoT? Mess around with Acro pre-nerf? General thief consensus (goon thieves at least) is that it's just nothing new or interesting for the class. It doesn't shake things up the way Reaper or Dragonhunter did, or give us any unique edge like Chronomancer has, and that's disappointing. But if you're having fun go hog wild man, absolutely.

OzFactor posted:Sure it's not Dragonhunter or Reaper, but those will get toned down, we all know it. And nothing is Chronomancer. But it's fun! I'm not so sure about that. All of the elite specs but dd & tempest seem to be on the same level wrt damage/utility/survivability, and tempest still has base ele going for it. I think it's more likely dd will eventually get number buffs, like, a year down the line, not that that'll fix anything about it really.
