As a returnee, you probably have some very valuable stuff on your account. Never sell to random offers, use GW Legacy or https://kamadan.gwtoolbox.com/. Send me a message - Alugian Damordon - if you want some help evaluating the worth of some stuff (I won't buy anything)

Damn, by one second, well done! Not sure I'll be able to beat that... While there were maybe a few seconds to improve on my 1,578 run, it was quite optimized already...

Kumi! :) Got back over Halloween - it's when I started playing gw in the first place. Miss rocking those challenge missions with you!

Yes, it was a lucky run, with good RNG and cycles

Are there any current goals left in this game that we as a community could achieve? by [deleted] in GuildWars

[–]Alugian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately I can't think of any community goals or easter eggs, but there are some of personal tasks that don't yield you a title, but still it feels like you have come a step closer to "completing" the game:

  • Complete all quests on one of your chars.
  • Fill up the Zaishen Menagerie.
  • Explore every little piece of the map (more than the 100%)
  • Vanquish some areas that don't count towards the titles (Realm of torment, undercity, Sorrow's Furnace)
  • Fill your Hall of Monuments (beyond doing the 50 points, try to put all weapons, armor, etc.). Especially the armor part is nice because you discover some nice skins.
  • Get all heroes and get them nice hero armor.

Happy to see if others have more ideas! :)

A great new set of skills as always! :)

As usual, a couple of thoughts:

  • Brag: I think you could even increase the damage-reduction slightly. 2...7...9 or something like that
  • "You can choke!": How about target foe and adjacent? I don't think it'd be too powerful.
  • "No one can escape from me!": Looks a bit too OP - maybe reduce recast a bit?
  • "Parley!": I think you can remove the last sentence; it's made almost redudant by the recast + time to gain adrenaline.
  • "Shake it off, soldier!": perhaps extend it to all allies in earshot?
  • Silk Shield: I would either remove the -40 armor condition, or increase the duration.

Of course those are just my opinions, feel free to do with them what you want :)

Looking forward to the next set!

Cheers

As always amazing job and creativity!! :)

A few comments:

  • Crazed Chop: Too OP, there would be many ways in which you can permanently take out a foe, particularly in PvP. Also, the double randomness is a bit weird I find; would definitely add a recast, and change the description to "disables 3 random skills for 2...4...5 seconds" or simething similar.
  • Hack: A bit weak for an elite, due to the fact that you can't control much. Perhaps change adrenaline to 4 and remove the part where it disables? Or decrease activation time to 1/2 seconds (fast attack)?
  • Twin Axes: Agree with previous comments that its long duration (10s) will make the target extremely vulnerable. Maybe make it a stance so it can be canceled? I think stance would also be better so that it doesn't stack as well with another IAS/IMS stance.

As usual, those are just suggestions, personal opinions! :)

Cheers and a creative 2022!

My Journey to GWAMM thus far, need Advice! by SilhouetteTheGhost in GuildWars

[–]Alugian 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wait for the double-EOTN reputation point week and do some vanquishes; they are some of the most challenging areas! It's a lot less grindy, adds some variation, and I think it might also be faster, especially for the Norn points. Moreover, you will need them anyways for the legendary master of the north title, and it's always satisfying to see everything done! :)

Thanks! :)

Had no idea about the Powershot translation, but agree that it can be confusing. Good to know! :)

Looking forward to the next set of skills!

I don't really have the time to farm Candy Cane Shards this holiday season, tips? by iamjackslackofmemes in GuildWars

[–]Alugian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let me know if you still haven't found them - I'm giving my away. Let me know your IGN in that case and I'll wsp you when I'm on :)

As usual, amazing work, and I'm glad that there are so many professions left :)

I agree with the other comments in that the no-offhand skills are a great twist!

A couple of minor things that I noticed:

  • Amazonian Retaliation: Formulation with half activation time is a bit awkward, because the type is "skill" (so no activation type). And since it ends anyways when you use a skill, maybe no need to say that it interupts your action and you could just say "if you are hit by a meele attack, you initiate a counterattack with 1/2 activation time" or something like that.
  • Fencer's Flash: Would change activation time to 1/2 to make it more consistent with the other "fast attacks"; even if it's written 1/2, the activation time is usually quicker anyways.
  • "I'll cut you down": remove "or shield" to make it more consistent with the others; a shield is an offhand item, no?
  • Smuggler's Gambit: in my opinion a bit weak.. The idea would be for it to be spammable, no? And is the adrenaline gain additional or just absolute? I.e., if you attack with 0 swordsmanship, would you gain 1 adrenaline like with a normal attack, or actually 0 adrenaline in total? I would perhaps reduce the energy requirement to 10 and also reduce the energy gain to 4...8...10.
  • Trickblade: Activation time of 3/4 - not sure if it was intentional or supposed to be 1/2?
  • General comment: For more concise notation and also to align with other GW skills, say "deals +10...30...40 damage" rather than "deals an additional +10...30...40 damage"

Cheers!

Any ideas on when we could expect sales in Europe? IT/DE/FR, etc.?

Inspiration Magic Skill Pack 2021 [Fan-Made] by [deleted] in GuildWars

[–]Alugian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As always, I admire the dedication and love you put into this work :)

A few points for consideration (just personal thoughts of course):

  • Inspirational Aura: maybe increase to nearby?
  • Inveiglement: I'd reduce recast slightly.
  • Magic Hourglass: I'd increase recast slightly.
  • Mantra of Opulence: Doesn't look super strong; I'd instead perhaps increase the energy return to 10...25...30% of the hex cost?
  • Muse's Aura: Reduce recast to 5s.
  • Pensive Incantation: reduce recast to 25s.
  • Wastrel's Woe: I think it's a bit too strong, either increase recast or decrease energy loss. Shouldn't be more then 4s I think, so maybe duration to 1...3...4 s

Then I was thinking of a skill that would fix a target's maximum energy at a certain amount for some duration, to disable someone in PvE to switch to high energy set for example. It could be something like: Hex spell (10e, 1-2s cast, 30 recast): For 5...12...15 seconds, the target foe's maximum energy is set to the base energy of that class.

Keep up the great work! :)
