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.
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!
@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.
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....
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.
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 because setting the NSFW flag on what was SFW is a violation of Reddit rules. My personal opinion is that the community just set the subreddit to read only and transfer to other federations. #reddit#gw2#moderation
@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.
I don’t like that you can’t dodge the numbers now after the “fix”. And really hate you can’t even revive when someone dies. I thought this was supposed to be a fractal, not a strike. What do you think?
Hey, I am a little bit annoyed by moving stuff around on between different characters. The easy solution is to put stuff in shared inventory slots. The big question is: How many should you get?...
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.
Is there a way to add this site https://gw2.altervista.org/gw2-utils/servers-population to the sidebar? I've been using it since forever when it comes to server population checks.
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.
He doesn't seem to have a lot of positive opinions about the balance update - applying boons on druid seems much much worse than before (requires lots of ability spam and makes CA part of rotation instead of a reactive action), scourge has been hit hard and suffers from the same problem as druid when it comes to boon application...
Bluetooth doesn't work on my Razr mouse anymore and my brother has also had bad charging issues with his Razr. Thinking of switching to a different brand, so what do you all use?
