That's because you do map completion and LS 24/7.

All dungeon runs will take place after the completion of Sunday Guild Make-Up Missions (~4:30 PM EDT). Events should be expected to take no longer than two hours.
These events are intended to be rather casual, and they will be very new-player friendly. Players of every experience level are encouraged to participate, so please invite anyone who you think would like to join.
For each full party that completes a given week's dungeon run, five gold will be added to a raffle from which one participant's name will be drawn. So if five parties complete the event, you have a chance at winning an extra twenty-five gold! The more people who show up, the more money you can win!
We will be thinking of small bonus challenges each week to announce randomly during the events, which will award more prizes, so be ready for those too!

☆ DUNGEON MASTER CHALLENGE ☆
Any guild members able to attend all dungeon paths will be eligible for an even split of an extra two hundred gold prize! The fewer people who complete this challenge the more valuable your dedication and hard work becomes, so don't give up!
In the potential case that no one was able to show up for all of the paths, a reduced reward will be given to the guild member(s) who managed to attend the most weeks. So it's still worth giving it a try, even if you know you'll miss some weeks!

Warhorn 5 + dagger auto, well of suffering and corruption if you're so inclined. Lifeblast until your shroud runs out and then use staff auto attack to refill and do the most straight damage in staff. Staff 4 is a condition transfer but is also the highest power damage mark followed by 3. Blood is power for self might since necros aren't particularly party oriented.
Boss Doggie
all my loli wolf companions are so moe
I kinda wish wells aren't ground target anymore so you can activate them instantly
Necro MH dagger is one the most boring weapons going. Auto auto auto DS auto auto auto cancel DS auto auto auto. I don't care where GS ends up relative to dagger for DPS as long as it feels like there's a need to use the other skills.
RIP preferred stunbreaker.

I wonder why they waited with the Medium-Armor professions til the end! Coincidence?
Well they did say that they revealed them in the order that they finished, so presumably the last three were either difficult to make something new up for, or they have the most complex specializations thus being time-consuming.
I'm hoping for the latter, but I'm afraid Ranger will be forever forgotten as a Druid if they don't do something amazing with the pets.
Guild Missions in ~30 minutes, followed by Sorrow's Embrace Story + P1 at 4:30 Eastern:

Does a thread for GW1 still exist or no?
No. I've actually been dabbling in it a bit recently though. This is probably the most relevant thread on GAF for it.
I haven't been very active in GW2. Just randomly remembered I haven't played in a while, logged in, and it just happened to be the time in which guild things were happening. I think I liked the giant lava robot fight the most. Most of the other fights felt like a mess of AOE happening and I wasn't really sure how much I was contributing. Thanks to everyone I grouped with, and specifically to Melfra for explaining the encounters.
Hope to group with you all again sometime!
Here's a crappy-ish screenshot filled with UI.
Oh man, it was Melfra, right? I'm sorry if not!

Glad to have you join us, and you certainly contributed to those fights. Not only in DPS, but I kept my eyes out for that healing turret a couple times when I was getting low.

Well I finally decided to finish my Luminescent armor. Spent the last week just grinding SW and going back to get ap in the ls. My ap went up almost a 1000 just from getting everything done finally. All I know is Im never stepping foot in SW again.
Thanks to you too, as always ;DExcellent Guild Missions, as always!
Thanks again to Crescendo, Falsetto, Lordphantomhive and Shizune for the excellent SE group, and Ike for running the dungeon events as always;
Fun to see the difference in sceenshot quality, this is my version:
Yeah, I need it to be able to play at all actually. My eyes are really bad and I get headaches if I don't use my SweetFX sharpening D:

I had an awesome group for the mission event today yet again ^_^ Had some people who had never done SE at all before today and we did great!
The giant lava robot is really great
One of my favourite fights I think. And yes that was me!Taco_Human

I really miss the first game, I'm pissed I lost like 10 years worth of minipets and all my progress on the first game. I might rebuy the trilogy on steam soon, when it goes on sale.
I just miss the game. It was my first mmo and arenanet are being jerks.

It is possible to sneak into an incomplete jumping puzzle/mini-dungeon area in Caledon Forest.

That ban was reversed. They specified they don't normally ban for map breaks unless you are doing it to exploit something that leads you to ill-gotten profit.
Does fun not count as profit?

Only while you are in Malchor's Leap.
Burn.
Burn.
You're my Destiny.
Thanks for adding me. Not played this for over a year, so decided to jump back in by deleting all my characters and starting from scratch. Not that I had achieved anything much previously anyway!

You're welcome!
Coming back at the right time. Lots of changes since you last played, probably. Especially with character progression and skill/trait unlocks. Better that you started from scratch.

YESSS, all I had to do was fucking email arenanet with my god damn CD keys.
Playing GW1 again, I'm so sad it's dead. Nobody anywhere except Kamadan so far.

Glad to hear it worked out. Reminds me I should log back in at some point and pick up a couple years of birthday gifts.. might get enough mini's to fill up my HoM with them finally, haha.

I started playing it recently for HoM and I'm seeing a handful of people in most of the outposts... when I got to Kamadan I was surprised how many people there were. It's much less dead than I was expecting for a 10 year old game.
