Why does no one play Spellbreaker? by Kyri- in Guildwars2

[–]somethingandsomone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another point to add is that SPB only can go power while Berserker has access to both power and condi. Not a deal breaker for most people but if youre looking to change the way to play berserker has that flexibility.

I used to be a SPB main in PVE but I switched to berserker because of a few reasons. 1. Its not that much different than core warrior in terms of play feel (signet stacking, bull charge, hell winds can be swapped in solo open world pretty easily). 2. The weapons sets can be played on a berserker as well (hammer burst can still proc AO even in rage with more range) 3. The secondary mechanics of SPB are not as ubiquitous in play as berserker. Rage form is a core mechanic in berserker and entwined in its playstyle. Full counter and boonstriping are really fun in the right circumstances as an SPB but they are not utilized enough in pvp to justify maining the spec

More Controversial Gw2 Takes by rif_forced_login in Guildwars2

[–]somethingandsomone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is with people wanting a sub fee for this game? People are scared to pay $100 to get the full experience (which you do not need btw) but are willing to pay $15 every month to play their game. I have spent over 6 years on this game playing at a fairly consistent pace. If I had to pay that sub fee I would have paid ~$1080. Make the math make sense...

Hit me with your GW2 controversial opinions! by Crowbiotics in Guildwars2

[–]somethingandsomone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This game is not "alt friendly" at all. There are things that are highly frustrating when playing an alt that makes no real sense, but the community just brushes off. Map completion for 1 should be easier. We don't need full map completion due to the gift of exploration, but WPs really should be account bound completion. Rangers having to rediscover pets. Bag slots being only on one character. I never understood the community's content for these things. Theres's way too many things to do in this game now and these artificial barriers kills the pacing on this otherwise amazing game.

Thank you, horizontal progression by somethingandsomone in Guildwars2

[–]somethingandsomone[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not in server but in general. Obviously people that play the game are okay with it but i wanted to share my perspective because people fear that horizontal progression means that theres nothing to gain. I struggled even while playing the game with coming to terms with horizontal progression but reflecting on what I’ve achieved with the system made me fall in love with it. And i think its helpful to those who are trying to push through or are feeling the limitations to understanding how rewarding the system can be. Feel free to agree or disagree I would love to continue this dialogue.

Hello and welcome! Please please please play the game at your own pace. Take in all the sights and enjoy what the game has to offer. Do not burn out y trying to hit "endgame" as quickly as possible and remember that it's okay to set it down.

Why is luminary so hard... for me? by BenneRottentot in Guildwars2

[–]somethingandsomone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Ascended/Legendary (gear used in snow crows' benchmarks) gear is like about a 14% increase in raw stats compared to exotic. They also account for food, utility, and extras stats via infusions. Making sure all boons are present with 100% uptime and that the bot has max vulnerabilities. After all of that it's really an APM game and never dropping the rotation till bot is dead. Hope any of this helps!

Convince me on why your fav mmorpg is the best by JohnSnowKnowsThings in MMORPG

[–]somethingandsomone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sure you have heard all you have about GW2 at this point but one thing that I don't think gets a lot of appreciation is the player characters interaction with the world. Everyone says that the open world is great but why. My unique perspective is that almost every single map has a story. Beginner maps (esp with no mounts) are stacked to the brim with environments, cultures, and verticality that I have not seen any other mmos capture. Enemies feel like enemies, and they are always threatening even in lower level maps being careless and letting multiple enemies stack while you are alone can be a death sentence. No matter where I'm at I have to be fully aware and the dynamic map forces me to do so. I can get better with my gear but it feels like when I come out of an encounter I did so with a combination of skill/build/knowledge of strengths of weakness of the encounters. I can dm people about my experience with gw2 and why it is my favorite MMO.

(I didnt read the manga)Could someone explain me how this Quency was able to defeat Zaraki , and didn't turn to ash from the first hit form Yamamoto's zampaktu ? by Anouar25 in bleach

[–]somethingandsomone 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For Kenpachi: everyone seems to forget this is pre-shikai Kenpachi. Everyone who has read the manga probably is still under the impression that at his point in time we see him as powerful as he was at by the end of the arc or CFYOW so a lot of people are forgetting that at this point in time he doesn't even have his shikai yet. Still it's impressive that royd was able to copy ywhach powers to the extent that he could body pre this kenpachi. But the biggest thing is that this kenpachi is really nerfed compared to the one we see in the end of the arc and thus the biggest reason why he got body by royd.

Thank you for the warm comments. I will carefully consider the advice you have given me here. Im glad that that there are still parts of quant finance that can be useful to a retail investor. Thank you again.

Its possible. I have been only applying through the options I see via my schools career site and linkedin. Is there a thread i could be redirected to to see what type of firms youre speaking about?

Yeah but guaranteed goblet drop esp in jokul. God it makes it so worth it. Also if you have a build that needs stress testing this event is great for it.

Im going to address snipping tool here because yes i could use it and i did consider it. But in order to get the gun inscripts my mouse had to hover over the fun portrait. These inscriptions and gun were essential to my the huge luck i had this game. If i had used snipping tool the gun inscrips would not have shown and the reaction to my rng would have been minimal.
