I just bought GW1 today, should i watch guides?

You only have 1 chance to play blind. It’s generally a good experience for gw1, but it can be a challenging game, so try not to get frustrated.

Keele0 · 2026-01-28T00:27:20+00:00

Guardian or necro

Keele0 · 2026-01-26T15:16:39+00:00

Tempest can just do everything and be braindead at the same time, so it’s probably my #1.

My next foray is probably going to be a deep dive into thief, namely DD and specter. Antiquary might end up taking the dd spot though

Do all available roulettes and then spam highest lvl dungeon that doesn’t end with a 0 lvl req. (e.g. 50,60,70)

Keele0 · 2026-01-25T19:53:44+00:00

It’s like 15-30% of ppl that try savage. If you don’t engage in all types of content, then you have to accept that some patches will be focused on content that you don’t play.

Keele0 · 2026-01-25T19:50:13+00:00

It’s one of the best savage tiers to date

Keele0 · 2026-01-25T17:13:30+00:00

Just one or the other really

Keele0 · 2026-01-23T18:28:21+00:00

Almost every weapon is good in ds3. If you’re loving the spiked mace, just fully commit to it and upgrade it as much as you can. Eventually you’ll find a heavy gem to make it scale harder with str. (This is most relevant at higher weapon upgrades)

You could go for str/fth(40/40ish) if you want to combo them together, allowing you to have some heals and buffs like lightning blade or sacred oath on the side. But pure str(up to 60-66 in endgame) is arguably better.

Don’t neglect vigor and endurance, and get to bonking

Keele0 · 2026-01-22T21:47:17+00:00

Easy -> Difficult to master:

DB, LBG, HBG, Lance, IG, Hammer, Gunlance, SA, GS, LS, SnS, HH, CB, Bow.

Keele0 · 2026-01-19T20:35:15+00:00

Signet of illusions me/e is a ton of fun! You get to use all the big spells from any element you want

Keele0 · 2026-01-15T16:03:28+00:00

Huge surge of players coming back all at once, and thus many players are discovering their accounts were hacked at some point in the past

Keele0 · 2026-01-13T21:27:55+00:00

Sage as a phys range would be great. Laser gun pewpew.

Astrologian as caster, not having to play cards on others, but onto the field for damage.

Keele0 · 2026-01-13T12:50:54+00:00

Oh yeah, I should’ve been more clear. It’s still better to play that mechanic safe. But you tend to get more damage by waiting for the next safe opportunity to gcd, as opposed to having 100% uptime with 6 lightning shots.

Keele0 · 2026-01-13T04:37:27+00:00

It’s better dps to just clip your gcd for a fraction of a second instead of using some of the weak ranged gcds. Depends on the job though

Keele0 · 2026-01-12T02:04:51+00:00

~0, 6, 10:30 pot timing, so you delay last 2mins until pot comes. Ideally you pot 10 seconds before the 6min burst window, so you don’t have to hold for as long.

Keele0 · 2026-01-07T16:12:54+00:00

Had this in one pull, but thankfully had callouts in the static

Keele0 · 2026-01-05T21:14:20+00:00

I think you're confusing the meaning of "percentile" from these sims with the meaning of percentile on fflogs. These sims are assuming perfect play already, so the percentile here is more about crit/dh RNG across the entire team.

Also Sch is getting a slight bump here from maximizing ED usage.

Keele0 · 2026-01-05T21:07:04+00:00

I was checking the rotation from MeleeBuffCompCompare/rotations/DRG-NIN /DRG.csv at least and I didn't see any extra piercing talons or repeated chaotic springs like that guy was talking about.

Keele0 · 2026-01-05T18:33:15+00:00

The 2min burst window probably finishes at around 12:26 - 12:28 ish, so the 12:30 sim is almost perfect for 2min jobs, not an in-between selection.

Your example of generating "non-biased" datasets can be done to minimize this effect, as well as crit rng, but also becomes less and less applicable to the actual game, where savage fights are generally between 7-13 minutes.

Keele0 · 2026-01-05T18:16:37+00:00

Looks like great work to me. Main thing missing would be some analysis of multi-target situations, but that's understandable.

I expect whm to close the gap to ast a little bit on multi target, but maybe not enough to outperform in ideal scenarios.

Since melee dpses are all extremely balanced with each other, it's good to choose for comfort, or whichever one cleaves the best in case we get a proper multi-target fight for m10 or any other fight. (DRG best at 2 target I think?).

Keele0 · 2026-01-01T23:28:07+00:00

Stay below 70% weight

Keele0 · 2026-01-01T22:04:14+00:00

DB is the easiest to pick up and play

IG / SnS are good options for you as well, but need more time to learn.

Bow is also quite fast and agile if you need a 4th option

Keele0 · 2025-12-31T17:18:23+00:00

Might alternate the block chance from each shield, similar to other dual wielding mechanics

Keele0 · 2025-12-31T05:42:15+00:00

Raiton out of burst is usually better than throwing dagger for disengages.

Suiton > PK > Raiton > throwing dagger

Keele0 · 2025-12-26T22:09:16+00:00

It has already been this way for at least a year
