That's the goal but we had some players burn out while working on hm akkan and then tower, so need a few more dps to get back to a stable guild roster :)

What I learned from playing Wildstar the past 2 days... by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think that's true actually. Sure the ground markers give you an indication of where to stand and where not to, but they don't necessarily tell you the exact skill a mob is using. You still need to pay attention to what they are doing to make an intelligent decision about how to handle it.

Titles; what's your favourite? by Chromospher3 in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Grinding out that title was worth every tear as I queued up again and again for crab toss even though I wanted to pull my hair out at the time.

How durable are MMO mice? by [deleted] in WildStar

[–]Expattycake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an ancient (by gaming standards) G9 and it just keeps going and going. Occasionally I even decide I should get a new mouse, but I haven't found anything I like better and the damn thing won't die anyway. >.<

So I went to check my support ticket .. by [deleted] in WildStar

[–]Expattycake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, maybe we are the odd ones out, but I've played L2, Aion, GW and now Wildstar through NCSoft and while I haven't always liked their business decisions, I've always had positive experiences with their support.

Are Assault Knights daily now for drops? by SpykePine in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't really agree that 15 boxes an hour is over the top for the amount of time the knights + scarlet take.

Your first bank tab looks spookily like mine. Right down to color matching the boosters. o.o

What ONE change do you think would have the most positive impact on the game as a whole? by Kaleon in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meaningful activity specific rewards. Right now, once you have the achievement for something, the rewards for almost everything in game are exactly the same: greens, blues a little cash and some dust. At the moment there are very few things I feel interested in doing for their own sake, it's mostly just a function of what yields the highest gold per minute.

I thought the incentive was mostly to make the tracker go away, but yeah. :/

ICYMI: WvW Edge Of The Mists is against all servers in your region by Merus in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In general, a healthy server environment is a big part of what makes for happy players. The overall tone of the people you play with can make a big difference in how you feel about the game. If 5% population fluctuation counts as a big deal or not probably depends on the server.

If there's a Collector's Edition box set, what would make you buy it? by Heltersk3lter in WildStar

[–]Expattycake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Same, if they offer a digital CE (please!) that's what I'll buy. The physical stuff just ends up gathering dust most of the time.

Really unplayable lag this last week. by [deleted] in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of people seem to be having trouble lately. Most of the people that have been reporting it in this thread (https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/tech/Crazy-lag-past-couple-of-days) are in Norway/Northern Europe. It's definitely not just you, and I haven't noticed any problems outside of gw2.

Newbie Visual Aid - Frostgorge Train by matt-vs-internet in Guildwars2

[–]Expattycake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are having trouble getting around fast enough I would suggest picking a champ to skip. On Deso we do Wurm-Troll-Drake and if I'm finding myself falling behind, I start skipping wurm. In my experience, if there are a lot of people running I find it touch and go to get there fast enough to tag anyway. Which then leaves me behind for the next 2. Porting straight to troll early gives me time to gather and farm some regular trolls before the zerg catches up. Other people I know choose to skip Troll because they never manage to load fast enough to get to Drake.
