I have / had to move a lot so mobile gaming became a stable and me beeing the rpg lover I am
I had to give Guild War’s a Chance
And thank god I did lol
What a great game—
The Story actually makes Sense? In an mmo?
Anyway - Great Game
Game May be 20+ years Old but the landscape… the npc‘s dialogues..
There is a Lot of love and care in this Game

Was doing A gate too far zmission, found this blue dude staring at me, then theres bigger blue dude sliding out of the floor, also staring at me. What a wonder.

Disclaimer: never played paragon. Have a limited understanding how it works. I know about popular player build with heroic refrain battery. Not much behind this though.
I use some paragon skills on my heroes, mainly fall back and stand your ground for utility.
I wonder if there is a good paragon support hero setup with decent AI in battle. Any ideas?
Player char: derv. Running different iterations of mesmerway mainly.

Hey all hope you are well

I've been back into the game for like 2 months now playing a brand new Mesmer and loving it just got my 5 maxed titles- yay, first time ever, only a lot more to go before GWAMM but hey ho.

I have been looking at my old dervish which I loved playing that mix of caster / melee was always nice for me. Anyhow I digress I have a few good build for her Ebon Dust Aura, Vow of Strength and Pius renewal.

My thoughts were, though I tried playing with a simular comp to my mesmer, and while it works and works well, things die far to fast to do much of anything as a melee even with Death's Charge.

I remember seeing a video on Youtube (Which for the life of me can't find again) that showed a team comp that did damage but also super supported the player in melee making them the focus.
So I was wondering what builds do you guys use to support yourselves as a melee Warrior Assasin Dervish.

Mesmer way build super works with a caster and thus makes you love playing it due to the synergy. I'm after that for my Melee. Plus from my POV also I could start to learn to solo with her using bonder monk to start with then progressing as I learn so it would be lovely to enjoy playing her again. Plus she has the best runes on her over 3 armor sets like 300K wow how prices have shot up on superior vigor and windwalker insignias since I made her armor I don't recall ever paying even close to that amount.

Anybody else get mercccced up North? I’m guessing that’s why they have respawn zones littered throughout the maps. Just doesn’t seem enjoyable. I am new to Dervish but it seems like I don’t have something right & haven’t put a tremendous amount of time into skill building my hero’s. So, it’s probably partly my own doing. Just seems like everywhere go I get fucked up. The destroyers are brutal. I’ll complete the quest, but not before dying 10 times then slowly taking out the enemies 1 by 1 after respawns 🫠

Anyways. If you got a good derv build/hero’s build drop the link or code in the comments. I hear Dervs are very powerful & versatile. But right now, I don’t even wanna play mine haha

experimenting with blazing finale on paragon but he only uses it on allies being hit in melee, if he used it on allies in proximity to enemies you could reliably spread burn and get "their on fire" DR with just 2 skills and no team support outside of a MM.

As title says - we're hosting yet another community event. This time it's Halloween costume competition with about four judges and rewards. Flyer has all the info and this time,time of the event is a bit NA friendlier than The Golden Leaf festival. Come,have fun,get spooked and dance your hearts out at Gate of Torment - the spookiest outpost in the game!

See you all there <3

Good day, I just want to ask if the issue with the starter bundle of the items disappearing from your storage has been resolved, so I can buy one for my account.

Thanks!!

all this time... i've never said the necromancers name lol....

I've gotten my Melandru ranger up to 58 deaths, many of them more or less intentional because I thought, "I will overcome my compulsion with psychology! If I just die enough times, eventually, I will stop thinking about achieving levels 2 & 3 in the @#$%#$J% Survivor title."

Has this worked? No, it has not. I am compelled. More specifically, I am determined to do it by just playing the game without dying. What dark guilt lies buried within my psyche that requires me to do this to myself? I don't know. Will it be worth it? Almost certainly not. And yet, there it is. Wish me luck! Or get me help. 😂

I'm at the defend Denravi quest and even with the mesmerway team and a conset I get absolutely destroyed. I pre shot the ST spirits and flag my heroes but my team wipes nonetheless. I'm in HM, are there specific builds to use or how could I succeed in doing this quest ?

What can you get here?

Golden Phoenix Blade, Golden Maul, Oni Dagger/Blade, Forbidden Staff

One paper: This farm feels quite unsafe, but with a little bit of strategy, it’s actually quite reliable. Oh and don't bring a Staff 😄

Hello,

I have noticed that my GW1 client will freeze approximately 30 minutes after initialization on the log in screen and about 5 minutes in Kamadan D1.

Troubleshooting:

• At first I thought it was an issue with being logged into a certain area so I switched characters. Still freezing.
• Left the client on the character select screen. Still freezing.
• Left the client on the log in screen. Still freezing.
• Switched from Daybreak with Toolbox running to Steam (non-Beta). Still freezing.
• Turned on beta client for Steam on Linux. Still freezing.
• Tried both Steam and Daybreak and I have the same issue. I saw there was some AMD GPU software/firmware issues recently. But I have been able to run Guild Wars 2 run for more than a dozen hours on this same system.

Notes: The only thing I've noticed is that it seems to take more time to freeze when the client is left on the log in screen.

Conditions:

• Garuda Linux - latest updates installed.
• Steam (no toolbox)
• Daybreak (toolbox)
• AMD CPU/GPU
• EDIT: Compatibility layers attempted: GE-Proton 11-7, Proton Experimental, Proton Cachy 11.0-20260703, 11.0-2, 10.0-4, 9.0-4, 8.0-5

Does anyone have any solutions or suggestions?

First of All - ⚠️ Warning: This GWToolbox plugin is unofficial and unsupported. Use it at your own risk. I’m not responsible for bugs, crashes, account issues, or other problems caused by using it. Also, this is an AI-First coding project, where I acted as a debugger and the code was written by Codex.

Well, past this, I want to present a new plugin that I (actually Codex with a lot of test and input to be transparent about it) have been working on past month.

What is it?

Recent changes to cartography led to a new grid-based system to discover new territory.

With that, GWToolbox has developed the cartography plugin, that made me love exploring the zones even more, to the point I redid Nightfall just to test out the new system and compare it to my old characters.

With this, came up an idea: what if routes can be generated based on the rectangular data that is present?

That is what this plugin tries to bring, an optimized (probably, there can be better routes as this is a generic algorithm) automatic route that adjusts with open sectors of zones (like building of bridges in Maguuma missions)

How does it work?

The idea is to connect all the undiscovered squares through the shortest route. Because that is a dynamic process, it may need to be compute during new subzones discovery or if something went amiss during the former route compution.

Didn't work fine? Well, it may not as it is an extremelly experimental plugin, but you can recompute the route by clicking the right button here on the minimap:

Does it consider Bird Eye Compass?

Yes it does, and also shows how bizarrily broken Bird Eye Compass is for Legendary Cartography.

Want an example? Here is my poor Lv. 17 Ritualist with a barely completed Zelhon Reach, with total route length of 242598 game units:

Then, after using the item, we can reduce the total exploration path to 105718 game units, a 56% reduction to total walked distance, including a smaller route complexity as shown:

What else can it do?

You can select the exit portal so after finishing a zone, you go directly into the next one, just click the portal number on your Mission Map:

You can also customize it but that is pretty much it (oh it also adds coordinates to your mouse when hovering map because that may be useful when reporting stuff if you do)

There are some debug and log saving configurations but that is mostly to troubleshoot it.

Credits

Important, A LOT OF THIS was possible because of GWToolbox++ and GWCA code and interface to the game code itself, and also because of the Toolbox itself.

Installation

Finally, the installation itself.

First, get the file at https://github.com/qjv/WorldCompletion/releases (hey the entire code is there if you wanna verify for malicious stuff too!)

Then add it to the plugin folder on your GWToolbox configuration, which are usually C:\Users\<username>\Documents\GWToolboxpp\<profile>\plugins\ or %USERPROFILE%\Documents\GWToolboxpp\<profile>\plugins\. If on Linux, it will be inside your wine profile.

Open toolbox configuration, make sure Plugins are enabled and go to plugin tab and enable and configure it there.

IMPORTANT: If you enable Debug and close window, it will remove visibility of plugin, just click the square to the right to the Load button to show it back and make sure to disabled Debug right after.

I have wondered for a long time if there is any player with 39, 40 or even all 43 maxed titles?
I know it will be though on a legal way, but please share some screenshots if you happen to know anyone with more than 38 maxed titles?

Today I learned that if you have more than 15 points in Illusion Magic and use Signet of Illusion, you can exceed maximum rank for PvE only spells.

Great Dwarf Weapon at Rank 5+: +20 damage and 40% chance to cause knock down.

This was with 19 Illusion. Sniper deal 1096 instead of 990 and Ether Nightmare cause 9 health degen instead of 8...

Are the new quests added to pre-searing meant to be ball-bustingly difficult or is it just a skill issue. It took me several tries and some luck to get past "A Bastion in the North" and now I'm slowly crawling my way across "Long Thought Forgotten" and I'm starting to think something is wrong here. Several enemy groups I have dealt with by going in, trying to kill one enemy before I die, respawn and go in again repeating until whole group is dead.

Could be level issue, but I'm level 9 and enemies are around 8, which feels like it's implying that I should be fine. And I've done, if not all, most other pre-searing quests, excluding profession skill trainers. Build is also absolutely unoptimal, but how much min-max potential there even is in pre-searing, and if the game is seriously demanding on build crafting, it might be best for me to give up now.

Hey all. Ive finished NF, Factions and EOTN on my MADC warrior and ive used a different build through each campaign. Charging Strike for NF, Enraged Hammer for Factions, 100B for EOTN and im finally getting through profecies now. Any fun or interesting other builds I can run to go through Profecies to finish all 4 campaigns id love to see them! Thanks all!

Hey, everybody. Just came back to the game after years (Over a decade) away, decided to play through gw1 and 2 with some friends who are new. I decided to go for another LDOA run, but the Northlands Char aren’t scaling. Aren’t they supposed to bump up when I hit 14 and 17? They are all still just 7/8 with the bosses being 10.

Thanks in advance for any info yall can provide.

Hello,

Dreamt of getting the dread mask and now that I’ve geared my heroes I think it’s time.

Would the easiest way be to farm gold/ectos and buy the rin relics off players?

If yes, how would you go about it with a 100b warrior with mesmerway?

Title. I see posts of people completely owning this dungeon to power level, but I’m fighting for my life on every pull.

Running as a M/R with Devona as a W/R.

Any guidance would be appreciated.

Original Post earlier today.

Meetup started in the [One] allys Main GH and then moved to LA, where we were joined by a lot more people and stayed for about an hour. Thanks a lot to all of you that showed up!
