Gotcha. I've been in the overflow and europe guilds but they were very quiet and nothing really happened. I'll see about signing in on the guild forums and being more active.

haven't been online in a week, but yeah we run dungeons rather regularly (mainly AC, TA and CoE, maybe a few more since the patch). I'd say plenty of people in the guild have experience with AC explorable Ghost Eater by now =)
Great, because I'll need someone to stop me from making dumb decisions I'm sure.

100% in Kessex Hills! My third 100%ed area after the human city and it's surrounding area.
Currently lvl 25, I want to take a break and see another race's city, can I access them now?

I think you can access them anytime?
Last night I didn't really play, just explored Lion's Arch, got up to 91%. Such a great city!
Also what's the easiest way or item to make some money with? I feel poorish lol.
There are a number of people who I know personally are qualified to run all three paths smoothly and quickly. I myself have done each path at least 4 times thus far (and Ghost Eater like 10

the one time I tried Colossus Rumblus, we just couldn't do the graveling burrows part (perhaps it was the lack of AoE damage). Haven't tried Howling King yet. However, I've become quite good at clearing all three TA explorable paths now (rather easy, honestly).
btw, here's a pretty good guide for AC story + explorable that I just found
http://www.guildwarsinsider.com/forum/dungeons/ascalon-catacombs/
Awesome, we're also piecing together our own guides and strategies little by little here: http://gafguild.com/index.php?threads/explorable-mode-dungeon-guides.197/ Please feel free to jot down anything that might be good to add. For AC I've only written up to the Kholer fight, so the path info still needs to be added.
You can see them all from Lion's Arch.
Just hit H, go down to the last tab, PVP, Go to "heart of the mists", then do the same thing again. It will dump you into Lion's Arch, and then you can take any portal from there to any other city.
You could access them at level one. Head to Lion's Arch (portal in the center of Divinity's Reach), and right off the bat you'll be on a small island with lots of other portals; those lead to the other capitols. You can tell which portal leads where by which race is standing guard outside it.
Be right back after this small break

If I were titan alliance/hardcore pvpers on HoD I would wait until the end of the free transfers and then get the hell off of HoD.
When I'm in the Heart of the Mists using the Hero tab to return to PvE puts me back in Tyria where I was when I travelled to HotM, I have to use the LA Asura gate in HotM to get to LA.
Oops yeah I guess that's the correct path now.

Because it's about a game.
Aren't OTs supposed to be moved to Community(gaming), after a month?
And now it has been.
Hope so. Tried WvW a few times during the weekend and this week and it's just not fun when everybody just doesn't give a damn.

Probably will be moved soon. EDIT
Just wanted to share the Guild Events we've got coming up and encourage you guys to check over at www.gafguild.com
TONIGHT | Caudecus Manor Explorable Guild Race: Those of you who were around for our AC run know the drill. We're going to start trying to put teams together around 9PM EST and see how many we'll be able to take out. Each team will have either an officer or delegate to hold the group accountable and a randomly-selected 4 other guild members. Choose whichever explorable path you want and first to complete it wins! Gogogogogo!
Saturday, Oct 6 | 8PM EST | Diessa Plateau Jumping Puzzle: Keoni will be leading his lemmings through another jumping puzzle this weekend! This time through some of the ruins of Ascalon.
Sunday, Oct 7 | 8PM EST | Fields of Ruin Mobbing Event: Come hobnob with the Ebon Vanguard as we roll through the Fields of Ruin. This is a slightly higher-level event than the previous ones as it's a 30-40 zone; however I encourage anyone with a character around 25 or higher to come.

So CM is 45+ right? Not there yet, but soon ... soon ...
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
I wonder if this thread will have less activity now that it's in community
40 for story, and sn1pes is interested in doing that so we'll try to put together a story group as well if you want to hit that up.
I'll see about typing something up for HotW, later or tomorrow.
Sweet! HotW is my most recent dugeon. Done the butcher and zealout, but need to get a little more confident with it.
I aggro'd fishies.
I have some notes (from the twoish runs I did with you), but havent put them together into a coherent guide yet. Also forgot a bit about the zealot path I did last night.
Don't aggro the fishies
That and mesmers feel op underwater with 3 clones up (helllooooo 10+ stacks of confusion and bleed)

My guess is less trolling if that makes it better. But I'm going to try and move over to the main guild forum for more stuff related to guild, but will be here also.
Yay! Gold star for piranha!
Definitely a lot less trolling will happen here (and has less and less since Mists released). As such as this game not being on the front page any more, you can count on less activity (which means if you want to stay on the up and up, use www.gafguild.com).
Yea, I plan on doing the Butcher path. I wanna do another run, or two and take some screenshots.
So I discovered a melee hammer build for Elementalists on various forums, and it actually works. No more swapping attunements a million times to kill one mob. You just stay in one attunement and autoattack, lol.
I mean I enjoyed that micro-managing aspect of Elementalists, that's why I played one. But as you level further, the mobs get tougher, and you feel like your working twice as hard to kill stuff than you would in other professions.
This build is kinda refreshing.

Just went through that gate... :O
I disagree, and always feel as if I'm doing the brunt of the damage during any mob encounter in the dungeon's I've run. That said, I'm interested in the specifics of this build.
The conjured lightning hammer
I remember that feeling.
Funny story, after I told him how to get there, my buddy was like "Yeah so I did what you said and went through the gate to Lion's Arch, and I just took one look and turned around and went back through. I'm not ready for that shit yet."
Oh. Mind unblown.

Been awhile since I posted some screenies.
Here, take them!
Here, take them!
I didn't say Ele are weak, and I'm not talking about group combat. I'm talking solo heart-questing PvE content. Do you not believe Elementalists have to work harder to kill mobs than other professions? You have to constantly swap attunements to be effective, whereas other professions are usually much simpler. Staff and Scepter can do very good damage if you have time to chargeup and/or the mobs are standing still. That is not possible solo play. Dagger/Dagger requires you to constantly swap and dodge around since your in melee range.
Anyways this is the basics of the build. You probably need to be at least 40 to reach the Conjurer trait. http://www.guildhead.com/skill-calc#ccs9oMCLT0MCLT0G9MG0mRcs
Your utilities are Conjure Hammer, Signet of Earth, and your cantrip of choice.
You get three possible heals... one from your active heal, one constant passive heal from water attunement, and one extra regen from your cantrip spell.
Your cantrip spell also gives you 3 x might, vigor, and in my case, cleansing.
You basically stay in water attunement and hammer away, using heal or cantrip if you get low. The #1 hammer attack is the most effective, giving area damage and a blind on the third hit. It's surprisingly tanky for an Ele. I'm curious to see how it plays out if I add more Toughness gear or invest in Earth Traits.
The only annoying part of this build is watching your charges, or random people stealing your extra hammers. The CD on conjure hammer isn't too long though, and you can swap to fire to cast some spells until your CD is up again. I've used this build from 55-60 and it works. I don't think it's viable for other parts of the game, but it seems a solid 40-80 leveling option. I'm going to spend some more time playing it, and see how far it takes me.
I'm not sure if I necessarily agree with that, at least offensively. It's been a while since I had to complete High level hearts, and I ran Daggers at the time but Fire/Water attunement seemed to get the job done rather well. My proficiency and understanding of the class is completely different now than it was at that time so you maybe right, but I haven't had much trouble doing Hearts for map completion.
There's a CM event tonight, and I think I'll try this build there. I'd rather experiment with a team of gafers than a pug.
