    A decade of WvWvWednesday went swimmingly! 45 minuites of singlehandedly holding SMC then taking it back singlehandedly after those perfidious pubbies lost it. Reminder that if you like WvW SFD runs it at least once a week on Wednesday! https://discord.gg/starfleetdental!

Ra Ra Rasputin posted:If you have a bunch of mystic forgestones sitting around (and what else are you going to use them on?) I would hold off on the silver-fed until you are completely dry on mystic forge stones, it's also purely karma to make them from some living story vendors compared to spending 2g 50s for every stack of 250 rares you salvage. I use mystic forge stones on provisioner tokens

El Fideo posted:After a several year hiatus, I returned to the game with the ten year anniversary stuff. I've been focused on getting my Engineer her mechanist skills and ascended gear for high level fractals, and that's been fun. I think I want to get into raids next. I've got Mesmer, a Guardian, and a Ranger all at level 80. Which of these would you recommend for a good support build? heal druid and heal/dps alac mech are both very good, Mesmer has some support builds but they're only usually used on certain encounters

big cummers ONLY posted:Sweet! My last newbie question before I go off and explore: is there anything I need to make absolute sure I'm doing or I'm going to be annoyed later? Can I ignore professions or should I work on those too? I'm assuming professions are a whole mini progression ecosystem on their own and if I can hold off on learning that, it'd be aces there's nothing (aside from deleting very old. characters) that you can do that's not recoverable trivially, crafting is a whole mini game and a decent way to make money but there's a buy in cost to even get to that level so you can safely ignore it until Later ™

big cummers ONLY posted:Thanks for the effortport! Are there going to be pain points related to being a free account while I wait for a sale? I will probably burn through the ten hours of free mount in the next week or two. The only big pain points in f2p leveling are the tp and chat limitations and not being able to go into Lion's Arch until you're like level 27 (and running out of mount time) most of the expansion stuff becomes available at 80.

Mailer posted:Grenades are why I'll never be an optimal mech and am not even attempting healing scrapper. I still want to give Mesmer a try, but that LI tag on Hardstuck is almost always where I'll be gravitating towards. Neither heal mech nor heal scrapper run grenade kit, they both run elixir gun but that's a lot less APM than spamming shrapnel grenade on cooldown

DangerDan posted:I'll make a suggestion of having your first set of various Ascended Accessories be Celestial prefix. The main advantage is that if you're just starting out, it'll do decent work for almost every spec in the game & PvE mode which makes it extremely versatile, and Celestial isn't terribly far behind proper stuff like Zerker or Viper for damage if it's just your right side. please don't bring celestial anything to raids without letting your commander know you're doing it

404notfound posted:I mean, what is "worth using?" If your only motivation is generating gold, then yeah, it's not really worth it. But it announces when a world boss is coming up and gives you a free teleport there, which is a low-intensity activity that runs on a constant cycle and is easy to slot in between other activities. there's a blish hud module called meta and event observer that does 90% of what the world boss stone does

Mercury_Storm posted:I was taking a look at some of the legendary collections to see if I could do some for fun, and did not realize that crafting the necessary items to eventually craft the precursor ends up costing not just more than buying the actual finished precursor off the TP, but often costs WAY more and has been like that for years. Apparently they used to be much cheaper to do the achievements but the economy

yeah the Saturday sfd raid group has gone very much zero to hero on that regard, from struggling to clear a wing in 2 hours to easily clearing 3 in a very short amount of time. with a little bit of investment raids are not scary at all

AmbientParadox posted:It was just pointed out to me that the entrance to the new map is the train tunnel in new kaineng. But that doesn't make any sense. This is clearly a ship loading dock. The cranes are on train tracks the facilitate moving the large loads onto the barges. But that in and of itself makes even less sense. If the trains are returning from the mining fields, why would they use the same tracks as the loading cranes? It will just cause an accident some day. Also it means the cranes can't unload the trains and onto the barges. maybe since it's all illegal brotherhood jade mining you're hiring a coyote to sneak you there and back?
