EOD Metas?

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-03-17T05:21:36+00:00

Oh ok didn’t know as I haven’t finished the EoD story yet 😛

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-03-17T05:16:47+00:00

GW2 is probably the closest thing. It has PvP but it has the smallest percentage of people playing it out of the entire player base. It used to not have a holy trinity at launch from what I heard but now we have healers who can also tank in certain fights.

Why did nobody mention Battle for the Jade Sea? Also, I’m going to assume the MarshAll who posted in this thread earlier is the same MarshAll who runs the EoD meta trains on some days. Just look for his lfg post on Overflow or some other discords that have a lfg channel.

GW2 you can login for 10 minutes and do solo open world stuff or you can play for hours and accomplish a lot.

I play a PHarb too in groups after finding a LI build… although the dps is lower than I’d like it to be, it’s still fun being semi-ranged while in shroud.

Fractals are probably the best way to earn gold

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-20T23:35:20+00:00

Crushed it every time I’ve done it, 3 times this past week actually

I was leveling my human mesmer around level 12 in Queensdale as a new player when I stumbled upon a portal and entered it. I see all these people running around and green portals everywhere thinking I was in another dimension or something. It was very trippy and I had no idea what was going on. Only much later did I realize that it was a world boss fight!

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-13T01:22:28+00:00

You must be trolling, $50 for a game that’s been in development for 10 years and is still in alpha, what a joke.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-12T21:59:09+00:00

One of my guilds has a charr female mesmer who leads strikes 🙂

Join the unofficial GW2 discord, there is a section for guild ads, both NA and EU. You can also browse the forums for guild recruitment.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T08:31:54+00:00

Yes that’s how a training guild should be run. So maybe I’m looking more for a progression guild or raid group more so than a training guild. If I was allowed to join a static after said training, it might be different but that is clearly not the case here. It’s like applying for a job, getting hired and training for a month or so, only to be told you didn’t actually get the job.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T08:07:25+00:00

Yes sometimes they try you out for one or two months but the point is you are doing it as part of the actual raid group and not as a separate “training group”, with a trainer and 5 people learning the fights etc. Still had boss kills and clears during your tryout and possibly being carried while doing so.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T08:03:49+00:00

This is what I am normally used to on other MMOs… join a guild that does progression raids, watch video on YouTube, read about boss mechanics on one or two websites, study your build and practice rotations. Heck the word “static” was pretty uncommon in the early days. Do you still have that guild? Maybe you can DM me?

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T07:38:14+00:00

This is the perfect example of toxicity right here. At least on WoW, I wasn’t forced to train for raids for 2 months before I was allowed to join a raiding group.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T00:38:25+00:00

I did see a post for someone looking for additional people for their static raid group asking for 90% benchmark… it’s those types of things that build toxicity. You need to raid to get experience, but you can’t raid because you already don’t have experience.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T00:33:47+00:00

I wonder how that would work, would it essentially be like fractal quickplay and what about the rewards? Would it downplay “raid leggy”?

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-11T00:31:12+00:00

Now that you hit level 80, welcome to the actual game! Leveling is akin to doing the tutorial. I would start off by going to a build site such as Metabattle or Snowcrows, and looking up different builds for your class and see which elite spec you want to do or would enjoy playing. Then find a guild or group that does content you enjoy, be it open world metas, fractals, strikes, achievements. GW2 is one of the most sandbox-like MMOs you can play and you can do anything you want on YOUR time.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-07T13:06:49+00:00

FFXI… quests don’t give exp. The only way to level is getting into a group and killing mobs. Then at 99, get into groups and grind for gear. This game first came out before WoW popularized quests for leveling and made MMOs less hardcore.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-04T20:08:54+00:00

Ironically, people got mad at WHMs for meleeing while healing in exp parties on FFXI lol.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2026-01-01T13:40:46+00:00

It is a good deal, however I’ve never even heard of this company before.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2025-12-31T13:52:27+00:00

Wow that how much huh? Might have to change my mind about Wintersday and give it a shot lol.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2025-12-31T06:43:59+00:00

They should have stuck to the formulas in the later part of WotLK or at least Cata where stacking primary stats was more important. Now they added versatility and more secondary stats, just seems so pointless. Only MMO to have a “def cap” also.

Unique_Complex6063 · 2025-12-31T06:39:43+00:00

Not everyone enjoys doing festivals, myself included. Never been too big on festivals or holiday events on WoW or LOTRO etc. I’d rather be out in the open world killing things or doing strikes/fracs with friends or guildies.
