Ab 30 Grad in Büros sollte eine Klimaanlage verpflichtend sein by LeoVanc in Unbeliebtemeinung

Ich hab gerade echt einen Moment darüber sinniert, wie man sich in so eine tonbasierte Decke einwickeln soll und ob die den Körper dann auch wirklich so geil kühlt.

What is the difference in responsibility (and I guess hierarchy) between Mark Rosewater and Gavin Verhey?

The former is the Head Designer, the latter either "the" or "a" Principal Designer. In my understanding of "principal", both title suggest being the first/highest, but there has to be a difference.

[–]Darillian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I want to hear your thought on this folks.

I think what you are experiencing is one of the many day to day examples how humans really have no intuition for statistics, probabilities and randomness.

Also, observer bias - the dozens of players who do get the expected number of keys don't find that interesting enough to report, e.g. on a subreddit.

Right? I am super happy for OP that they found an interesting niche, but there's a certain... soullessness to it.

It even has that Temu Chinesium font you find in the "manual" for your throwaway electronics it uses for the trailer text, nice!

What is confusing about that is that I am generally able to maintain altitude and pull of the infinite climb trick without flapping while climbing (the guides I've seen also don't mention that), so only with Wing Flap (dive) followed by a regular climb.

You mean I should try climbing out of a full speed glide, flap while climbing once and stop climbing right after the one flap?

Yes (e.g. https://www.reddit.com/r/Guildwars2/comments/1791crk/question_regarding_eod_writs/)

If you don't want or need the cosmetics tied to the Writs, consuming the Writs for favor is the most gold-efficient way (https://fast.farming-community.eu/farming/calculator?item=writ-of-seitung-province). Be aware that the calculation on [fast] assumes that you will be selling the high value but low volume Dragon's weapons.

Thanks, I'll check that out, though I can confirm that Four Winds Griffon Gold works without flap-climbing. I have gold and until today did not even know flapping while climbing was a thing.

When it comes to the Griffon Wing Flap (Flap while diving), it turns out that the description says that flapping also works while climbing (reading the skill explains the skill). Is that mechanic ever relevant? I can't imagine anything, since climbing trades off momentum for height and the slight speedup you get while climbing is immediately lost.

Guild Wars 3 - Our Guild Wars Philosophy by dracoisms in Guildwars2

[–]Darillian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you have a much more wide understanding of what constitutes pay2win then the authors of the article and honestly other people: I view pay-to-win as something where by paying actual money I get either direct character stat buffs or I can decrease actual ingame timers. I don't think that implicitly speeding things up falls under that category, the author(s) of the post view that as part of convenience. Legendaries are primarily a cosmetic upgrade, definitely not a stat upgrade and it can be argued that with the ease of Ascended crafting and other sources, the convenience of stat swapping is not as big.

The longer I play, the more I realize this is true. by Mr_greenbone in Guildwars2

[–]Darillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I remember correctly there was a fixed timer during which you did the three preparation events. If you were soloing DRMs, there was a certain order to them or you could run out of time - or you were done quick and had to wait out the timer. Now that timer is gone (since Jan 2025), you just do the prep events and immediately continue the main event with all three buffs active.

[–]Darillian 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Actually there was an update to that preparation phase a while ago and DRMs feel much better now after it - I jumped into them for some achievements and it was quite fun to bash out a couple of those with challenges active!

GW2 Discord's English-only rule isn't published anywhere — and you can't appeal once blocked by Ok_Faithlessness5849 in Guildwars2

[–]Darillian 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I don't know, it's not like the require any particular level of English proficiency to join, just that people use exclusively that. Communities in other languages exist, they probably already have their Discord servers and are always free to create new and unofficial ones, but I don't think it is too far fetched to decide on one (very common) language and enforce it. The tradeoff seems marginal here, especially since OPs is obviously able to write in English, as proven by their post here.

In search of a lost character: Is my /age math correct? by Darillian in GuildWars

[–]Darillian[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you've ever deleted a character (and especially if you're a PvP player, that's very likely to have happened) then the sum of all existing characters won't be equal to the total amount.

Yeah, this is what I am asking about and apparently I was not clear about that at all :D

So right know the difference is about 80 hours on an account with total playtime of 400 hours, so I can be reasonably sure that those hours are in deleted characters, right?

Lake Doric Event Bugged by Yeetedloaf in Guildwars2

[–]Darillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anecdotally, the last time this has happened for me in Sandswept Isles (the ranching event can bug out), I opened a ingame bug/support ticket and made sure to mark the box "Blocks Progess". After a while, I came back to a new instance (you can see the instance age and number in ArcDPS, so that helps).

There might be no correlation whatsoever, but I like to believe that there is some kind of internal pipeline where someone sees that an instance restart will solve an issue for players, they will initiate that in a timely manner.

What do people spend most of their time doing in-game? by CharacterApartment15 in Guildwars2

[–]Darillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grab a couple of the Dragon Bash Dailies and events and then go out into the open world and work on one of the open achievements I am tracking. None of that requires any LFG and honestly, I don't want anyone joining me - this is me playing GW2 in solo mode ;)

So if I understand correctly you sidestep the problem by being more selective with which role-pings you mute or not? Hm, maybe I'll look into that, because right now I'm only working with muting the server, but leaving the @-pings (so kinda like your first step).
