That trait seems kind of, um, awesome? How are the Necro elite cooldowns, any under 100s?

Just the Flesh Golem (60s untraited), but he's the handiest of the elites when roaming around anyway. Plague & Lich Form both have a 3-minute cooldown.
 
Hope nobody just used their keys. :p

So here is an amazing story .

Here i am finishing my armorsmithing leveling and i decided to toss the left over items in the Mystic Toilet.

New Build = Adding the trinity back in. THEY'RE FINALLY LISTENING TO THE FORUMS, GUYS!

I hope they never listen to the forums.

the trinity doesnt even matter. the dungeons are shit, imo. trinity isnt even needed in open world. I don't hate the trinity, but i also dont think its needed.

oh...

the part where I committed to not buying keys anymore did not account for this sort of scenario

I like the dungeons, but I think the encounter designs could be more interesting. Trash fights, and even a lot of bosses, tend to be boring.

That said, I haven't done the TA Aetherpath or the Molten Facility, so things may have improved drastically. They certainly have in other content. Really excited to see the next dungeon that ANet puts out, whenever that is.
 
Well your opinion on his opinion is shit in my opinion

I'm of the opinion that your opinion on my opinion of his opinion has zero bearing on any of the opinions regarding the nature of opinions or opinions about opinions when it comes to one's opinions about people's opinions on dungeons

EDIT: Trash fights are always boring - that's why they're trash fights. I don't think you could make trash fights interesting, because then they wouldn't be trash fights anymore, they'd be full-fledged encounters. Sure, some of the bosses in the various dungeons are a bit bland, since they rely too heavily on established MMO (thus, WoW) tropes. I'd like it if ArenaNet innovated a bit more with encounters inside their own sphere, instead of falling back on tried-and-true stuff from WoW.

The dungeons are not shit. You might not like them, but they are not objectively shit.

He said in his opinion, that's fair.

Well, I think his opinion is shit, imo.

Ooh, this will be a big balance preview for my characters. The last one has me essentially stowing my ranger until FP2. I probably won't be able to watch this; hopefully Ash or someone else will be all over it like the first.

I have absolutely zero guesses on what will be changed for warrior, either nerfs or buffs.

I actually like the trash fights in dungeons. I legitimately love the combat system in this game and find it satisfying merely to clear a room of enemies either without breaking a sweat, or scraping by with multiple people down and a last-second rally. Any room of stuff to kill is enjoyable to me because the actual act of playing the game to kill them is enjoyable to me. I imagine this has a lot to do with a gamepad, but I can tell you that if it was not the case I would have stopped playing long ago.

I wish there were more unskippable encounters with multiple champions and fights designed to test skill in ways that couldn't be bypassed. That doesn't mean making everything unskippable by any stretch of the imagination but there are very few rooms that are not bosses. Of course this would increase net difficulty and there are, believe it or not, a nonzero number of players in the GW2 userbase that considers its dungeons very difficult.

whateverrrr bring on the nerfs!

I just realized the reason they're making keys get scraps higher is because there's no new weapons in the next update. Everything will be five tickets from here on out until they add new ones.

Bleh.

All this precursor stuff makes me want to dig up Scarlet, cast rebirth, and finish the job.

Don't find dungeons a good example of GW2's combat. In PvP classes can differentiate themselves. Dungeons are mostly stack-n-smack dps. Hopefully future stuff is livened up more. My ideal run would probably be no trash mobs, no skippable stuff, just a series of boss encounters. Maybe with some environmental puzzles. Aether path isn't too far off.

weird their isnt any patch notes.

only wiki info is this

Guild Wars 2 Wiki Notes
The amount of champions spawning during Defeat the shadow behemoth has been increased.
Build: 37,160
 
Dungeons are mostly stack-n-smack dps

If people choose to play in such a cheap, exploitive way, sure. Play them normally however, and they're far more engaging. Stacking in a corner to LoS and mash-F-to-res-the-zerkers, isn't what I consider representative of player ability or the dungeon's design, it's just a lame exploit.

I hate stacking and won't unless it is absolutely required of me.I but yes, pvp is a much better showcase of how deep the combat can be.

that is my ideal GAME!

So when someone inevitably finds the shield precursor sometime in the next hour or two please let me know. I'll pay well!
