Did you do the new Fractal 100CM? What are your thoughts?
  • Having to redo a meaningless trash pull to reset your title eligibility feels bad.

    Having to stand there doing nothing while waiting for mechanics to resolve feels bad.

    Not being able to use my dodge to mitigate damage feels bad.

    Seeing my friends gear and learn builds they don't actually want to play just to pull a reasonable numbers feels bad.

    This encounter feels like it was designed for a different MMO. I think it would make a great mythic+ boss.

  • Server Population Link
  • I'll add gw2mists to the sidebar, as that's a more feature-complete website with the same functionality. That URL is using a free website host, so I'm a bit skeptical of its trustworthiness.

    Edit: it's already there. Reading is hard XD

  • What do you keep in your shared inventory slots?
  • I would recommend replacing the Silver-Fed with Mystic Salvage Kits if you have stones to spare. It's less gold per salvage :)

  • Secrets of the Obscure Expansion Reveal & Trailer Breakdown
  • As is tradition, the WP analysis video is significantly longer than the content being previewed. All is right in the world.

  • ArenaNet officially moving away from Twitter as primary means of communication
  • [email protected] is available as an unofficial fedi alternative for critical game news if you're looking for something to follow.

  • [Reddit/Community Meta] Welcome Back Everyone. Now Where Do We Go From Here. It Is Up To You.
  • I have no control over what the subreddit mods do. If you'd like to speak with them, I'd recommend a modmail.

  • Do you find any fun/interesting new weapon combos in the beta?
  • Torch as a replacement for warhorn feels awesome. More cc, damage and might. Very nice.

  • Rubi Bayer - Will Relics invalidate legendary runes?
  • I invested in a set of runes so I'll be interested to see how they'll either preserve the power level or compensate us. Having a legendary relic from the get-go would be nice.

  • Mukluk - June 28th Guild Wars 2 Thoughts
  • One of my friends is currently using qHeralds for HTCM. This patch is making them reconsider due to the lower access to roads.

  • Announcing Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure – GuildWars2.com
  • Seems like they're removing the 6-rune bonus and putting that in relics. You can take whatever stats you need in runes and then have whatever strong passive you want without fucking over your stats.

  • Combat in Guild Wars 2: Secrets of the Obscure – GuildWars2.com
  • Hopefully staff is the weapon warrior needs to actually run a good healing build.

    Glad to see this community moving over. I'm a lurker but I always loved reading the discussion :)

    I don't think the GW2 subreddit is going to be able to set a NSFW flag to help continue the protest. News has already broke about Reddit replacing mods that did this in several of the big subreddits b
  • @Ravi @Leiesoldat A lot of the power users who submitted the bulk of the content have stopped posting. Casual lurkers will follow eventually.

    I remember when all of my gaming friends were on Skype and Teamspeak. It took some time, but now we all use Discord. Someday, Discord will die too and we'll move on to Revolt or something else.

    It'll take time for reddit to die and habits to break. But we'll be here once folks are ready. https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/#hey-guys

    As everyone is settling in, I wanted to highlight the importance of hashtags. [https://kbin.social/m/kbinMeta/t/67017/YSK-adding-tags-will-make-your-posts-more-discoverable-on](https://kbin.social/m/k
  • @dominoko Yep. Search on federated social media doesn't actually search text, only hashtags. This makes it so only people who want their post to be found can make it easily findable; cuts down on the quote retweet dunk kinda stuff.

  • Silent Surf Fractal Trailer
  • Hopefully it's actual gameplay and not RP that makes it long. I much prefer faster fractals, but I'll take what I can get.

  • Well, my Razr mouse is dying. What gaming mice do you all recommend?
  • Logitech G600 if you like having a LOT of buttons. Had mine for years and it still hasn't broken.

  • [Reddit/Community Meta] Welcome Back Everyone. Now Where Do We Go From Here. It Is Up To You.
  • It's slow going for now. I'm just glad we have a reddit-like place to go in case reddit collapses further.

  • Where is the fractal trailer?
  • Anet does seem to be keeping things fairly close to the chest nowadays. They're only giving details on the next update and keeping any future plans vague at best.

    Why lemmy instead kbin?
  • TY, try it now.

  • Why lemmy instead kbin?
  • There is an app on the way. @artemisapp

  • Welcome Back Everyone. Now Where Do We Go From Here. It Is Up To You.

    Vote if you like, but the primary reason I'm posting this is because this community has been linked as a reddit alternative in the post.

    Welcome gamers! You do not need an account on kbin.social to post here. Pick any Kbin or Lemmy server (lemmygrad and lemmy.ml are not recommended), make an account, and type @[email protected] in the search bar to get here.

    Consider subscribing to /c/[email protected] as well if you're able. There's been some odd bugs getting their posts, hopefully that's ironed out. These projects are still somewhat early in development, but have a promising future!

    Also: consider searching #GuildWars2 to see even more discussion from the wider network. If you have any questions about federated social media, please ask them below :D

    Transferring ownership of a magazine

    I'd like to transfer ownership of a magazine I created to another moderator. Is there a way to do this?

    Hi folks! I'm adding a new rule under Allowed Content:

    Hi folks! I'm adding a new rule under Allowed Content:

    > > > Advertisements to other fediverse communities focused on Guild Wars 2 > >

    For those of you that are new to federated social media, you might be wondering why this is important. The fediverse is decentralized. A quick browse on the default homepage of kbin.social will show you content from other instances of Kbin and Lemmy. Searching #GuildWars2 will show you even more discussion from other federated servers.

    If this magazine was the only place on the fediverse to discuss the game and kbin.social shut down (or if I turned out to be an overzealous mod who decided to only allow posts about DPS minstrel core thief), then that would be a huge problem! We'd find ourselves in the same situation we're in right now with the loss of /r/guildwars2.

    There's a ton of very nice people around the fediverse who discuss the game. Any assistance posters want to provide in helping us find them is welcome. The conversation is not limited to kbin!

    Wow, that's quality armor!

    With most (if not all) 3rd-party apps breaking on reddit, I thought it would be a good idea to get something set up on the fediverse for the community. For now, it's very barebones but things should fill out as I learn more about kbin specifically.

    If you would like to help, the best way to contact me is @bass.
