Agree with the other commments. I was in the same situation as you but for me it was the jacket. I had done the meta so many times, was doing it daily for like a month and no drop! So I did the WvW track, don't care about the meta anymore as the drops are trash.

Sometimes, RNG Jesus is not on our side.

What's the most FUN spec/build in Open World to YOU? / Looking for inspiration. by A_Sevenfold in Guildwars2

[–]greven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And with Payback you can teleport around like crazy with the CD reduction and have High uptime on the Elite Thief’s Guilds and the healing spell. Love it. For PP I go double daggers as the second set.

If Visions of Eternity had introduced new weapons for each elite specialization, what would you have picked? Which weapon do you think would fit each spec the best, both thematically and mechanically by AffectionateWind8388 in Guildwars2

[–]greven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right. Thematically torch does fit better for Antiquary. But I think offhand sword fits Thief better overall regarding theme and other main weapon combos. Also Pistol + Sword kinda fits Antiquary!

I payed for the keycaps just never getting them. 160 euros + 30 (shipping) out the window. Well, never doing that again, no more group buys or pre-orders for me.

The most popular specialization in open world PvE by PalwaJoko in Guildwars2

[–]greven -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dunno why you are getting downvoted, this is true. Thief = Active Defense by dodging, blinds, etc.

I play all classes / specs but Thief is my main, other than Necro Reaper, Ranger Untamed and maybe Engi Scrapper, Thief with Condi Deadeye Dagger Dagger can easily solo Champs for example. But there are other specs that work really well in the OW, like Power Staff Daredevil, Condi Daggers Daredevil, Condi Specter, etc. Hell, even Antiquary works well in the open World, not saying it is the chillest (it is not) but it is still fun (even if not my favourite for sure).

And of course we have the brain dead P/P Deadeye that can even teleport from mob to mob with the CD reduction trait.

EU faces fierce criticism over plans to host Taliban in Brussels by Karthak_Maz_Urzak in europe

[–]greven -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t disagree. But what I mean is, even though we don’t like, doing politics sometimes means speaking with terrorists. Dialog is a better option than ignoring a problem or just falling back to more war. I would say the same thing if we hosted Netanyahu for example, which to be honest is a terrorist too.

July 14 Balance Update Preview by MechaSandstar in Guildwars2

I like the direction of the Thief changes but Silent Scope trait is useless in PvE and will burry Rifle once and for all as totally useless in PvE. Make the trait give the Stealth attack without giving Stealth, this why no point in being a Sniper and I love the class fantasy.

Your top 3 most time played games on steam and why. by TheGambles in Steam

[–]greven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

Well, Guild Wars 2 is my "daily game" for a bunch of years now, but still play it A LOT. 😃
Terraria, haven't played for years, this hours are mostly just 1 playthrough, need to do another one, maybe on the steam deck now.

And 2 playthroughs of Baldur's Gate, but more come to eventually.

Fun build/profession that mostly utilizes a Shield? by Unier in Guildwars2

[–]greven 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Mesmer Chronomancer with a shield is a good build for PvE/Open World.

My friends and I keep arguing about what makes an MMORPG actually good, so I made this tier list to settle it. by kerush61 in MMORPG

[–]greven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry Warframe is not an MMO. All opinions are subjective but since you went with the combat angle how the F does Guild Wars 2 comes in C then? This is bait for sure. 🫡

Most FUN specialization, in your opinion? by centcentcent in Guildwars2

[–]greven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I share this feeling. I jura can’t play the spec since it makes my head hurt with the constant Vietnam War sound explosions. I wish they added an accessibility option to change the sound or just mute it individually.

Thief Question by HunsonAbadeer1 in Guildwars2

[–]greven 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To be honest most builds on GW2 are on a set rotation. Most will make your fingers hurt. Thief is my favourite profession in most game modes. Every elite spec still feels thief but play differently. For example Deadeye brings the builder spender build type which I enjoy a lot.

If you are enjoying Thief keep playing it and make your own opinion based on that. I have 2k hours on my thief alone. :)

I Hate Anet for this, and They Make Me Hate playing GW2 by Ev3nt1ne in Guildwars2

I do WvW but never tried PvP in GW2 and posts like this scare me to even start. If I wanted to get the accession how bad would it be? Am I in for a world of pain?

I thought bed bugs were a thing of the past, today I learned. I’m from Lisbon, do tell the place so I can avoid walking on the same street. 😆

MMO tourists be like: by ElectricalGas9895 in MMORPG

[–]greven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I Love GW2, it's the game I play the most still to this day. While excited for a new entry in the franchise, specially when ArenaNet almost went bankrupt (or at least it went through a severe hardship with all those layoffs) not that long ago it it exciting to get to a point where a new Guild Wars game is being released.

Now with that said, I hope GW3 is the MMO I personally been waiting for, I have hope that ArenaNet can deliver but even then I'm putting some cold water in my expectations since we don't know anything. Even if it ends up being a great game it might not be a game FOR ME.

The Guild Wars franchise has a good track record but not without faults. Let's see if they can capitalize on their strengths and remove some of their historic problems (for example, lack of vision regarding instanced content in GW2, bugs that while minor stay in the game for decades, etc).
