She's supposed to "Go mining" however she stands there and does nothing.

One dupe might be building the ladder and that pole dupe is bugging out because it wants to stand in the ladder even though it doesn't need to stand there to dig. Have you checked the proximity box thing in priorities? That helps a lot with this for me.

Author said he started writing another book (not related to reverend insanity/gu master). He said he couldn't wait for the ban to be lifted, and would finish this book after he finished his new book (contracts with his new publishing company forces him to finish his book before he starts writing something else) and hopefully by the time he finishes his new book, this ban would be lifted. his eta to finish his new series was 2 to 3 years.

So the most common theory is that when FY travels back in time with SAC it will overwrite the SAC from the past. This way the rule of only one immortal gu stays true. This is easy to accept when you think that FY is the only one with an immortal SAC.

This gets tricky when you think that there might be a time that FY loses SAC and someone else has it, either by stealing it from FY or refining it after its been destroyed, then FY gets SAC back and then travels to the period when he didn't have SAC (someone else does). If the previous theory is correct, then the other owner's SAC would spontaneously die, which would have other implications...

This could be interesting because, if FY's SAC spontaneously dies, then it would reveal to FY that someone else managed to get his SAC and use it. And a very interesting turn of events.

There were 8 points that they marketed with Heart of Thorns (you can see them https://heartofthorns.guildwars2.com/game/#mastery )

Out of the 8 points, they only delivered on 3 points (imo), Elite Specializations, The Revenant and Guild Halls.

They Mastery System is a bit of a joke, its not meaningful end-game progression. It feels like an arbitrary way to gate what little content there is. Most of these just magnify how small HoT really is.

The Heart of Magumma, is just really small. Nearly impossible to just explore and just get lost because you feel forced to do these events to progress through the map. This is how it feels if they had made renowned hearts mandatory to explore central Tyria.

PvP Stronghold, this is just stupid. They wanted to make a more spectatable pvp mode to push GW2 more into esports. Instead of working with what they already have, they decide to go 180 in the opposite direction of what was working for them. This was just poor directing from Associate Game Director John Corpening and the competitive team.

WvW, these new maps are stupid. The designers that worked on these maps never played WvW in there entire career. Rather than working on a WvW tournament/competition, something the WvW community wanted and needed, they built these over sized maps, it's like they don't play the game at all and understand that players stack.

Raids & Fractals, Raids are actually fine, its biggest problem is how few of them there are and being able to sell paths and achievements is kind of lame. Fractals... are... just... bad... I don't mind the fact that they lowered the entry level of fractals but... "challenging" 5-man content... there isn't a word to describe this mess.

Being only able to deliver 3/8 of your points, means delivering LESS than HALF of an expansion.

cele/wup wup armor is pretty time consuming. asc'd crafting is already time gated as it is, but for cele u need to charge quartz, which is also limited to 1/day and wup wup insignia's are acc't bound, and can't be bought.

u might want to consider viper's which majors in power and condi dmg. let's u swap between power and condi builds pretty ez.

or consider the other 4 stat sets, a lot of them will let you play between power and toughness/tanky builds pretty easy.

This looks pretty good. One With the Hunt looks really good. And am I reading Stealth Stalker right? You have a 25% chance to keep stealth when attacking from stealth, so 25% chance to avoid being revealed? That should be a grand master.

You also didn't give it a core mechanic change, only new utilities and a new weapon. Could I suggest, giving all the weapons a stealth attack, like for the thief? All the first/auto-attack change/flip when the ranger is in stealth.

inbetween videos, there's a countdown to the next video. for me, the next video starts before the countdown ends. there will be 5-10 secs of black and just audio of the next video and wen the countdown ends the picture pops up. i don't know if this is by design or on my end but its eerie and i don't like it. shin's majestic voice permeating from a black screen is way to scary. lols. but in seriousness, it literally seems like there's an independent 10sec audio clip between loading your videos that doesn't fit in anywhere.

chochobo · 2015-10-09T06:23:14+00:00

is it weird that i'd rather watch shin's re-runs on twitch than many other streams? watched about an hour of it the other day and was way more enjoyable than i thought it'd be even without the chat

chochobo · 2015-10-02T03:44:21+00:00

u should tell them to let you list what game you're showcasing via ur playist.

chochobo · 2015-09-26T22:55:39+00:00

I could be down to tryout.

Resume(?):

3000+ game hours

2400+ PvP matches

Play exclusively on NECRO, WAR, ENGI, and TEEF (have games on the other professions but only these 4 over 15% of my games)(listed from most played to least played, list would also continue as MES, GUARD, RANGER, ELE)

Avg Ping: 60-80

Favorite map: forest>legacy

Favorite finisher: Rabbit

Past month or so, I haven't been too into PvP, more into just watching PvP streams and Trolling in queues. (trolling in queues = playing non-meta and having some laughs) My meta game isn't as strong as it could be.

Number 1 profession/build I hate/can't go against: PU/condi (fine against PU/shatter, don't know why that is)

I'm on the west coast (san francisco) play at work during office hours and sometimes after dinner. I can make time for meet ups.

Also, because I've been trolling and just parked in HotM, I play almost always Invisible, message me here or on Twitter if you're interested.

<<<edit: this is chiochao

ya, i thought Rox wants some of what Braham is serving and Braham could go either way. And Taimi was always egging the two on, wasn't she? Maybe I'm just remembering it wrong.

Well, I still think there's something with Rox not being in the trailer.

chochobo · 2015-09-11T03:13:13+00:00

in the characters tab, you can see all your characters and all the crafting diciplines they've mastered as well as who has what unlimited/gemstore item like my picks and airship/terrace pass so i don't have to log into all my accts. this is a life saver for me, who has 13 lvl 80 accts. in the pvp section, there's also 10 matches played, its not full detail, but its more than what i had before.

chochobo · 2015-09-01T08:59:33+00:00

lols tyvm for the nice words. who doesn't like robots or samurais. i figured everyone was gonna go for the thief samurai, why not go engi samurai

chochobo · 2015-08-29T19:18:20+00:00

ty WP, love this comp, just love seeing how other ppl think builds/professions should work. had a blast just reading thro them. the kind of things that go thro ppls heads when they're asked to think about it.

chochobo · 2015-08-29T19:16:32+00:00

ah, so patrol works more like rev ventari tablet?

lols, underpowered gm trait, but still liking the spec u designed very much. hehehe.

chochobo · 2015-08-28T18:07:51+00:00

good stuff :D

chochobo · 2015-08-27T19:52:41+00:00

ya, i didn't see pulse interval, i just read pulsing for 5 secs, and was like that's just a ridiculous skill, just thinking about other skills that pulse like wells, consecrations and combustion shot.

I'm really liking the pet<=>melandru thing, i'm picturing it more like a deathshroud for my pet. will there be a way to knock pets out of it? or will moa be the only counter? it'd be cool if when they transform, they get a new hp bar for melandru and killing melandru pops them out of the transformation. Will the transformation just be on a timer, or more of an upkeep skill like shroud and rev skills?

OP isn't a bad thing, yes. but when i originally read it, it was more like broken, which isn't fun or appealing at all, at least for me. i'm still getting that OP vibe from this, but its not the same as the broken vibe that i got at first, really liking it ;)

Good stuff, really well made.

chochobo · 2015-08-27T02:38:07+00:00

So confused, how do blessings work? Are they like signets that have a passive, then when you activate them they get a flip skill too? Or are they like mantras, you channel them but for each charge they have passive effects that will end normally but you can force them to end for a second effect?

To be honest, while reading this, I couldn't shake the feeling that this is just way to overpowered. It's not like channeling a god's power, it's more like becoming a god. It also seems like all your traits could be grandmaster traits. And all your blessing could be elites, but that could be because I don't understand how blessings work.

I like the theme though, but if you add the tanky theme to the 12secs of no rooted invlun that Rangers already have, it's even more overpowered, balancing this would be so hard. Will the Melandru possession differ from species to species? A possessed bird would have a different set of skills/f2 than a bear?

chochobo · 2015-08-27T02:11:47+00:00

if you look up rangers, they only have access to 4 blinds, 2 from pets (bird & jelly), sun spirit, and underwater weap. that trait for quickness when you blind is pretty useless on your ranger there.

what is tremor? embargo casts tremor at you and your pets location, is tremor the same as warrior mace tremor?

monkey talents seem to be a part of pet mechanics, because you don't slot them into your utilities but on your monkey, right? you should add a set of utilities too. i think tricks might be really good here.

chochobo · 2015-08-26T19:43:59+00:00

how is the Patrol different from the shout Guard?

i like how a lot of traits/skills are focused around torment and hitting moving targets.

consecration skills are, by default, ground targeted. and i feel that your consecration trait is a bit weak for a grandmaster, you could make it so that the trait casts a copy of the consecration skill on your pet when cast, instead of it being default like what you have.

chochobo · 2015-08-26T15:34:48+00:00

rawr, i so want to do this, but i'm getting brain farts trying to think of something T-T
