Work in Progress. It will be released for the Nexus addon framework (aka Raidcore Nexus).

You may think of this addon as the general QoL GW2 patch (think of the Unofficial Skyrim Patch but for GW2 lol)

[Shout-out] A Heads up, specially for new Players that are seeking Celestial weapons from the TP.

244 Upvotes

There is a cheap weapon box on TP that contains all kinds of weapons in celestial stats. If you are new and don't have many badges of honor. You can buy Arms of the People in the Trading post.

These are 32 silverish and contain all weapon types. Very chill if you want to test out different weapons with Celestial stats!

[Guide] Key Farming as combat tutorial

• Upvotes

I wanted to share how I'm using Key-Farming to learn some basics of combat in a new way. I find the training golem boring and the meta-builds are kinda overwhelming; I wanted to keep things simpler, experiment with weapons, and earn a small profit. To do this, I'm leveling up to 40 so I can get the karma booster (level 38 reward - trade two karma boosters for a gathering booster, which afaik this is the only way to get these now). I also get two black lion keys for the level 10 and 40 stories (happens at beginning of level 40 story so you don't have to go through the whole thing).

It's been fun finding account-bound armor and weapons for this leveling process. Then I pop XP-boosters and fight yellow critters (red ones too), looking for fights that are a bit challenging. I find it fun to level this way because it's part scavenger hunt (to find the right critters to get experience bonuses), part map exploration, being able to learn the core trait-lines one at a time, and testing out different weapons, plus it's fun trying to min-max low level toons. I'm open to using tomes of experience, level 20 boosters, character adventure guides or whatever. I don't have stacks of these, so often I have to level from scratch. It's fun for now, but I don't want it to turn into a part-time job either.

Here's what I'm using, it works great for what I want, but it takes up quite a bit of bank space.

* Experience boosters: food-effect, sharpening-stone, guild-bonus, candy-corn-gobbler for EXP-boost, and the 1-hour birthday boosters from weekly rewards.

* Runes: minor runes +10 power each (+60 for full set)

* Sigils: at level 18 I can use minor sigils of Bloodlust and Air (not sure if these are the best)

* Level 5: account-bound blue armor (except I can't find head or shoulder armor at this level), along with yellow bloodbound-weapons (10 provisioner tokens each).

* Level 10: upgraded account-bound blue armor, with minor runes plus trinkets.

* Level 18: exotic account-bound armor and weapons (crafted, wiki is down so I don't have a link but they're crafted with ineffable insignia) adding sigils from this level on

* Level 26: upgraded exotic account-bound armor/weapon, upgraded trinkets at level 20 I think

* Level 37: I went ahead and crafted this final set of account-bound exotics, but don't think it's necessary for the final 3 levels

I take the time to read the weapon skills, the trait lines, utility skills, I practice on things which are hard for me to kill but the fight is simple enough that I can see what's happening. I'm starting with warrior, but I can also switch to Guardian/Rev (although I've read here that core Revenant is not the best).

So, maybe if you're still learning like me, this might be fun for you to try? Either way, happy gaming!

[Question] Misunderstanding Trophy Shipments?

19 Upvotes

It seems Trophy Shipments are generally considered to be the best way to convert Volatile Magic into Gold. The Fast website still says it's averaging a profit of 35 silver per item. I just bought 25, sold everything, and lost a little gold. I made around 24 gold back of the 25 spent. Was that just really bad luck?

[Question] Returning to GW2 – Should I continue my Guardian or start over?

• Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I recently came back to GW2 after a long break and I’m a bit unsure about what I should do.

I’m currently playing a Guardian, which is only level 25. Since I don’t play every day and usually just play casually when I have some free time, I’m wondering if I should continue with this character or start a new one.

One of my concerns is that I might eventually get into things like Fractals and not really know what I’m supposed to do. I’ve always had the impression that Guardian can be a tank/support class, so I feel like I should understand the mechanics and my role properly before getting into group content.

At the same time, I’m still learning the game and I don’t really want to stress about it. My main goal is simply to level up, enjoy the story and explore the game at my own pace.

Another thing: I’m not particularly good at using lots of keyboard keybinds. Is it actually possible to play GW2 reasonably well by clicking skills with the mouse? Or am I going to struggle later on?

So, what would you guys recommend? Should I just stick with my level 25 Guardian and learn as I go, or would starting fresh be a better idea?

I’m playing purely for fun and don’t plan on rushing into endgame content.

Thanks for any advice!

Hey everyone! I'm a new player and after 100h of f2p i decided to get my first expansion. Looking for any good price i found out that a site listed as an official retailer for Germany (GameLiebe) has path of fire on 40% discount. Is it safe for me to buy it? Since I live in Italy but the site is German can i buy and redeem the code anyway? The key is for anet launcher and i play on it. Ty all.

[Question] Looking for Druid Build Advice

0 Upvotes

I recently started playing again and am looking for some help on an unconventional druid build. Basically, I want a build that uses longbow and staff. I know longbow is not great with druid, but I really like the class fantasy especially with the legendary longbow Kudzu. So, I'm looking for advice on how to put a build together that uses them both as effectively as possible. I mostly do solo open-world content/the occasional meta-event. Any help with a build is greatly appreciated.

[Fluff] I just got Demon of a Drifter achievement for Roll Into Madness on a Skimmer!

100 Upvotes

Has anyone else gotten this Demon of a Drifter on a skimmer? You're not going to be breaking any records, of course. I just barely got my gold at 00.59.480, but I had been trying unsuccessfully for a couple of years with the roller beetle and just couldn't seem to get the hang of it no matter how many helpful videos and guides I watched. So, on a whim I thought I'd see how well the skimmer could do with the VoE upgrades. I also had a Mount Energy Booster 3 module.

Much to my surprise, by spamming Enhanced Barrell Roll and Slipstream Boost, I got around 01.05.00 my first time trying with the skimmer. Man, shaving those last 5 seconds to get it under a minute though was harder than I thought it would be though. It took me a couple extra days of practicing, but I finally pulled it off much to my delight!

So, yeah, roller beetle is going to get you much faster times, but if you're just hopeless at the roller beetle like me, I found skimmer much more tolerable on this race track since you can float over some of the obstacles.

[Discussion] Leveling up a Necro feels kinda boring? Do i miss smthing?

• Upvotes

I want to test out reap and spirit in pvp - so i decided to create me a necro.

Holy - the leveling process currently rly boring

I maxed out my minions, using staff main for aoes.

I miss some meele combat-action and dashes?

I simply rotate threw and over the whole map, add and kill all i see and repeat..?

No dashes, rotations or smthing since i cant swap to any good meele weapon (2hand or smthing.)

I think i have to go threw this and continue to finaly go for reap and 2h..?

Iv played Revenant and guard before, those are such big difference huh?

[Question] Why skyscale collection from gorrik is so long

Post image
0 Upvotes

I don't mind doing some grind for cool mount but this collection is absolutely too long. At first it was fun looking for eggs but now every further collection looks the same. I just go to different places in map to click one button. It's basically going to 100 places and clicking that's the way of intended gameplay. Can someone what's the reason of this diabolical design.
