I'm glad to hear about the Bounty Hunt Training. Things were looking pretty grim for my 5 man friends guild before this. We were to the point of pouring our laurels into letters of commendation and we're still around 33,000 away from unlocking the bounty hunts. We already made to it Art of War 3 so it looks like we're all set for the update!

I've learned that my taste in what looks cool does not typically mesh with Anet's designers.. soooo I'm just going to wait and see what these things look like before I get excited.

I'm an Asuran Thief so unless the thing glows or smokes or shoots laser guided shark missiles, people won't be able to tell what it is anyways.

Ha just did my first "dungeon" run, not sure if that is what it is called. Man that was a blast, I was just dying left and right, the GAFers I was running with were dying trying to revive me. Whoever it was that was helping me out, thank you! If anyone else is doing it later on or want to some time this week let me know, I want to go on more runs.

Dungeons are really some of the best content the game has to offer. It seems like a lot of people dont ever try them.
My theory is because dungeon sounds scary. They should change the name.

Fancy Spelunking Routes!
Hrm. I would have liked some reduced reward for Bounty Training. This still puts small guilds into the backburner status.
I like that they're quickly addressing the problem, but it still worries me that they released GMs in the state they did. We'll see how the fix works out. People go where the personal rewards are at, so this may help some smaller guilds but not all. It's still second-class status.
I think the majority of gamers are just accustomed to LFG tools. You can just join a queue in Warcraft and join 24 other people for a lengthy raid in no time.
Heck, Guild Wars 1 does a better job getting people into dungeons and groups with the Zaishen bounty system.

A list of what options they have working so far in custom arenas in their internal build. I think people are hoping for a way to change the win scenario.

The way bounties should be. The whole pre-scouting thing kinda ruins them, IMO. At the very least they need to get rid of the ability to repeatedly talk to bounties to keep them in place.

After a few month hiatus I've come back to this but found that well it's a bit of a ghost town and there hardly seems to be any guild motivation in the second gaf guild.
I guess my question is where is everyone, is there room in the first gaf guild, do you guys still do dungeon runs (pretty much the only thing I want to do at the moment) and is there a summary of all the new stuff they have shoved into the game?

Not an Officer but I believe there's still room in the Guild. Hit up Ashodin, Retro, Hawkian, or Jira with your Name.XXXX and they should be able to kick you an invite.
The second gaf guild is defunct. Join us, hopefully you're on SBI?
Things are about to go pretty nuts within the next week, you picked a good time.
We still do plenty of dungeon runs.
Sure am. I'll PM shortly look forward to getting back into the swing of things.
I'm online right now, if you'd like to get in, just PM me here with your name (or post it) or send me an in-game mail to Ashodin Venteal
To the guild bounty thing: pre-scouting was not possible because there was no dulfy guide before it released.
However, I'm wondering if we should try their method and see if we can hit it, or if we want to chance it like that. (we actually beat the last one within 6 minutes, so I think this is possible).
You will be welcomed into the loving fold.
Black lion keys are on sale. Buy them. You won't regret it.
Ended up getting 5, got a pair of rare mini's to throw up on the trading post. Got some Black Lion salvage kits, so I'm happy.

For some reason my game crashed when trying to find Crusader Michele. I try to log back on but it keeps crashing. I have to verify all my files before the game is working for me. The weird thing is this didn't happen to me months ago.
Can't log onto my ele at all. I can log onto my alts but I don't know why I can't play my ele. It might have something to do with Sparkfly Fen. I don't know but it's just messed up.

Just got back into the game yesterday, wow a lot of stuff has changed and I'm as confused as ever!
Should I be stocking up on something?

With the current method of just pressing "F" when you find the guild trek spot, only a handful of people would get personal credit. There's no HP bar to tag, no finish line to cross. Maybe if instead you had a capture point per guild trek spot (like in PvP/WvW), that's one way to spread the personal credit.
Makes sense.
During Shadow of the Mad King, Black Lion Chests had a chance to give you something that you could only get during the event, like the chainsaw skin. Not sure if they'll do that again. They didn't do it for Wintersday.

I bet you they kicked out all the Canadians! Unfair!
woo woo
of course we did fail the first t3 we tried today...
It's going to be even less worthwhile with the new bounties. Basically a guildwide decree, we'll be using the six-squad method instead of pre-scouting, even if it means more failure. We need to all brush up on the individual fights as they can be both tougher and easier in smaller groups. Still, very efficient and satisfying at the end.
I did like the strategy of doing the more casual guild trek prior to the initial bounty, and if anyone happens across a bounty during that hunting they could stay with the target.

Also I like the non-scouting part, yeah.
Agreed. Our strategy at first was terribly inefficient and confusing. I had no clue where to go half the time, who to help, or even if I was supposed to help. It was pretty frustrating.
I'm glad we got it worked out though.
Anyways, I'm really excited for WvW tomorrow. I hope we get a good turnout. We should definitely go after CD because they are total pushovers lol.
