Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
[GW2]Taste the rainbow VERY SOON in the new thread.

At first.
I didnt either. Not until it was too late.

I saw it said somewhere that they didn't mean to roll that little piece of ai out to every npc.
Glad to hear that, although the FXAA is pretty nice. I hope they add AF into the options. GW2 has awesome textures, and not everyone knows how to force AF in their GPU.

Ha ha, I was fighting a bandit mob in BWE 3, and she totally dodge-rolled out of one of my attacks, then stabbed me in the back. I was like, "No fair, that's MY job!"
It was insane. This was the first time I saw someone just show how skilled you can get and just completely embarrass people. Its also making me buy that 6th char slot and making a thief and playing that build, because it looked like so much fun.
Link to the stream so I can find video?
Just assumed everyone had seen it already.
It switches to the guy who has the "downed ele" build. This guy also can be caught referring to WvW as "wuv" I had no idea that this had carried over
Actually the cooldown on Hundred Blades is 8 seconds, which is fairly low. The real problem with Greatswords is that its Burst skill does very lackluster damage (which is probably why all of its burst is in Hundred Blades), not overall DPS, though that burst skill does let you maintain 100% uptime on Fury with For Great Justice. You can also switch with something that does have a nice damaging Burst skill, like Axes.
Also, Greatsword's 1 slot stacks Vulnerability, which is awesome on event bosses (on everything really).

That build is boss as fuck, i'll try that out for sure.
Or a variation of it.
Two stealths, and all the mobility that a shortbow gives is awesome.
So awesome how he gets the boons from weapon switching.
Sigil of intelligence and doom (old doom which was 30% more damage on next hit) and a specific thief build and setup allowed you to instagib someone for 14kish backstabs due to mass damage bonuses and the garunteed crit from weapon switch.
And you could pretty easilly replicate it after the stealth CD is up with a somewhat lesser but still insane damage repeat if you timed it right.
But yeah, he is using the 950ish lifesteal (which means its free damage AND heal) and I think the 50% endurance on weapon swap. Which is incredible synergy with that build.
I had no idea how good pistol MH could be for bleed damage allowing you to get almost all your damage from that and use initiative for what you really need. And the fuggin tree. I never saw that before, thats silly and incredible at the same time.
I was looking around and found what appears to be a good dps/survivability build from a youtube video I watched. More excited for this build than the pistol/shield build.

100B, yes, but Frenzy has a 60s
cooldownrecharge, which I think is a fairly common/important part of the build that's been causing all the complaints.One CC on him and there are very few people who can't nearly finish him off just during that debuff.

Don't get me wrong, there are several neat abilities and the flavor is very cool, but when the rubber meets the road it still just feels like I'm having to work really hard. Harder than it should be. Normally this isn't a problem in a game because I'll play one class and never look at anything else, but with the beta weekends it was easy to just roll up a ranger, thief, warrior, and necro and all of them felt like "wow, that's all I have to do??".
Two words: Land Sharks.
I love this. Hell, I never thought to use the same weapons on both sets. Even that is great.
This was the first place I encountered the term. Where's the interview?
Christ I can't even begin to remember it, I just know we didn't make it up.
How DO you force that anyway? I have a GeForce 670.
You'd be right, at least for now.
Personally I'll be running engineer. 30 Firearms, 30 Alchemy, 10 in either Tools or Explosives. Gonna try for Pirate runes.
Yarr.
That would force AF on for all games. That isn't necessarily bad, but it should also be possible to tie the modified settings to a specific .exe (the gw2.exe in this case) so that it only overrides the defaults for that game (the defaults mostly being "application controlled"). I haven't used nvidia for a while so I can't remember how to do that.
x16 AF should be fine on a 670
Someone on reddit did a comparsion: without AF vs with AF

Like this, yes?
Ill be organizing runs and try too promote a no spoiler mentality. Thinking of calling it "The dark and damp initiative" or "Dark and Damp enterprise" [Damp].
Just a nurse shark. Nothing to be afraid of.
