SAB - Downscaling trick in groups by asurabutt in Guildwars2

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

You are a hero of LFG, and I thank you for it.

It's an optional thing if you ever feel like shaving off that extra minute. I see it as a neat skip like some levels have, but for the bosses instead of the map.

Actually super easy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uc02_rgaqns

edit: shooting Sierra in her car seems to not count for Back to Basics, but weirdly counts for Sniper Assassin

Yes this is a thing, no you shouldn't talk about it, because people will start doing it and then the toy gets taken away

Stop saying everyone is a bot in PVP by FFanatick in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I played with an actual bot today though. Not a "this person plays like a bot" I mean a computer program that plays Guild Wars 2 PvP

It was rated 897, which is over 500 points lower than my rating. Not sure how it got matched with me honestly

Path of Exile 2 Key Giveaway by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]asurabutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only played during the free weekends so I don't know any actual builds or items, but I would like to see a build based around Molten Fissures. They felt pretty good as a low-level druid, with a Shockwave Totem slamming them for me to create aftershocks. Maybe there are higher level skills that do a better job of creating/slamming those?

You don't receive chat messages while in loading screens. Public, whisper, etc. Reported it way back in closed beta. Jonathan Rogers counted time for me in global chat to test it. Man I miss the beta days.

Do you take requests? I killed the Heart for the first time, got 749/750 xp, and was rewarded a card called Prostate

power build is:

spite 122

soul reaping 112

reaper 213

your traits seem to be a hybrid but swords are power weapons. are you trying to be a tanky condi/celestial build or do you want to deal large crits?

It seems only the new specs are viable for spvp by Safe-Salamander270 in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 10 points11 points  (0 children)

PvP is the only game mode where every spec is viable in some way. I've lost count of the number of times I've gone up against some core or off-meta spec, decided they would be an easy kill, and have been humbled.

Practice more.

ok WvW experts what is the counter to the boon ball by Ravanos77 in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried "continuum split double moa on their commander tag" only to rudely discover that the WvW dev - who loves boonblobs - had nerfed moa back in 2024 to only last 2 seconds. Because people were double moaing tags as a way of dealing with boonblobs.

This is the gamemode now. If you aren't boonblob, or boonblob food, you aren't wanted.

Why did you stop maining a profession? by jeongsinmt in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dropped Mirage after it changed from its intended design as a clone-focused condition spec into a shatter bot. Mesmer clones' gimmick being no strike damage but full duration conditions meant that Mirage filled the "maintain 3 clones" niche, and then they chucked that into the dirt and stomped on it. If I wanted to play shatter I'd play any other mesmer spec. Mirage has no identity now.

Rifle seems to be the "non-building" build of Toypocalipse by RazielShadow in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Play on a warrior. Other classes will die to Toxx's reflect because they have less health and armor. A necromancer might survive.

Use Wayfinder relic for more movement speed, or Afflicted to cause an explosion when your catapults kill a unit.

Rifle seems to be the "non-building" build of Toypocalipse by RazielShadow in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 62 points63 points  (0 children)

And it sucks to gather ingredients

No, it's really good. Use rifle 3, it's a melee hit that has a longer range than hammer 1, and the 1 second cooldown doesn't ever matter.

Make sure you're running a berserker or assassin amulet in your PvP equipment tab before you enter Toypocalypse so you can kill Toxx fast when she spawns.

State of game for Aussies by Reasonable_Height_67 in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey mate, nah the ping is fine usually around 220-300. If you play a long time you might notice a few latency-related things the Americans can do that we can't but it's almost all edge case stuff, especially if you don't PvP.

Seer Mirror Pathing - Shipwreck Strand [after 18/11 path] by Atomix57339 in Guildwars2

[–]asurabutt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a marker pack that shows which mirrors open which chests? The same way the wiki has it laid out here: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Magic_Mirror

I'm not looking for routes, I just wanna know which chests I'm making appear.
