Guild Wars 2

I havn't played a necro so my view may be completely off but 30 in toughness isn't the best use of those points for what looks like your beast master build.

If you take toughness down to 20 you only really lose out on the death nova because the 25 point bonus is an increase of 10% to power from your toughness, which is never going to be better than pure power points. Also that trait line improves boon duration which is wasted as you only really have 1 from what I see.

So drop ten from toughness and put it into power (taking training of the master at 20), giving you better damage output, better healing and better minion damage.

You'll lose some burst damage from nova and a bit of tankyness from the drop on toughness but you've maxed vitality so you probably don't need it.

Thanks, I hadn't actually seen training of the master in the power tree. I'm gonna try it out when the game actually comes out but the main reason I had the points in toughness was that last time I played a necro I was quite squishy. I think with the amount of health I should be getting back from minions, plus life siphon on the main hand dagger I should be ok though. Any idea on the first trait slot in power? I'm between removing a condition on killing an enemy or gaining retaliation when entering death shroud. I try to use death shroud quite often and if I'm going for a tank-ish build then I think retaliation could be useful, but would the condition removal be more useful? Anyway, I'm hoping I can still deal a substantial amount of damage with this, I'll just have to have a look at the minion damage output.

I missed the last beta weekend so I haven't had much chance to try some different necro builds yet, and any other advice would be nice.
 
Can someone link me the web page where you can tinker with GW2 based on what weapons you use etc?

I can remember seeing it in the thread ages ago but not since then.

edit: also referring bak to the chat about WvWvW numbers a while back, I cannot find the souce again but I was reading it was 1k per map not 300, making it 333 per side... or did I get the wrong end of the stick? :p

That's my favourite build editor by a big distance.

I take it you can respec like you could in Guild Wars? That is for my first character while I'm getting used to the game no doubt I'll make mistakes in my stat specing.

I hope for this too, I'm not sure but I think I saw some kind of consumable which allows for respecs.

Whatever or however we'll be able to do it, I hope its free to do like in Guild Wars 1.
 
Staff wielding ice/water mages have quite a lot of heals, them and guardians could be key to organised pvp or even wvw if used right.
 
Have a look and add your guilds to this http://www.gw2guilds.org/, and if you guys on Desolation want to we can form a alliance, call it Ocuk Alliance :p

Have gone ahead and created a alliance called OCuK, every guild that joins if any :p, each guild leader will be given what ever admin rights there are, not sure there is a lot right now, but if it works and looks worth it we could always set up a separate forum (not tied to any one guild) for cross chat when required.

Once Up work along the rules that every guild leader and deputy, has 1 vote so that everyone is equal, maybe set it that guilds to have their 2 votes need to have at least 20 people in the guild. I think WvWvW pvp could end up being very competitive in this game as there seem to be a few largish alliance already!

We may very well find we have no use for one, but if we do, not a bad idea to get the groundwork in now.
Any form of feedback, i.e worth pushing or not interested would be nice, so at least we have a idea where we stand.

....Whats the chance of having people who have no interest in this either way, keep the negative comment in check :p ...and the same to those who just wanna have a pop :D

And erm any chance a mod can let us know if its OK to use OcUk as a alliance name? :o

good idea
 
So, I preordered this from Sainsburys for £30, and it says that it will be delivered on the 28th. Is there any way that I can download the client prior to that date, to minimise time spent ****ing around with discs on the day?

Have you tried to set up a account on the GW website, and see if it allows you access to the client, if not I'm sure it will soonish.
 
Sorry guys I'm not following the threat because I don't even what you are talking about most of the time, anyway...
Do you know if when can bind all the buttons already I know we are waiting for it still but maybe this people said something regarding that?
By the way when is gonna be release? I can't wait I bought it like 1 month ago.
