I can lead a pvp grp if there's interest.
I also would be interested.
I should have the site up in a few hours, this will give us a much easier way to get this kind of info together.
Wanted to create a second post b/c I'm going to pick up where I left off with getting a site and forums up and going for our guild, but Merrik tells me we formed a new guild? or No? Also I'm gonna finish fleshing out what seems to be the most feature rich/user friendly guild host site in the next day, so be on the lookout!
Sup guys!? I've missed youuu!! I give my apologies for a quick and long departure, but had a heatsink go out unexpectedly, tried a new one that apparently was borked from the manufacturer and lost my cpu in the process. Got a new cpu and back up and running! What's more is that I have 6 days off again! WOOOO!
I'm gonna be on and looking for peeps to group up with!

Hola!
Been hard at work on some projects, but decided to take a break and see what guild hosting sites had to offer...boy was that a bad idea. :wah: :wah:
Nothing I can build comes anywhere near how cool some of them look.
Tie for first between:
Tie for first(have not set up completely)
First tied
(Eventually we could get our own domain, add a vent plugin[like the second site has] and incorp a lot of other cool stuffs)

(This site was easier to set up item hover links for forums or news pages & the vent widget on the front page)
Edit: Forgot the Third one:

Tell me what you guys think!?
P.S.:If anyone was on for groups last night - I got on earlier and apparently dozed off in my chair - at some point I went link dead).
2nd Edit: Just noticed the first site's banner does not match at all with the backdrop! :banghead:

I have a link somewhere thats on the official GW2 wiki, try to search combo fields and see what that comes up with. Dependent on whom starts what kind of combo determines how you finish said combo. IE: some type you have to be within when you use your ability to activate the combo, other combo fields your character has to jump through them.
Good to see a few folks will be on, Merrik...Ireland...pfft....that doesnt sound like fun at all! :rolleyes:
Why did you leave me!?! :wah: Look what I've become! Addicted to non-mmo/GW2ish RPGS!? :wah: Oh the horror! Please hold me... :wah:
Ahem, wait........
What?
^^^^That wasn't me.

VABuckeye: Between traveling for games and CST I haven't done any runs. I'm EST and my weekdays start early. I still enjoy being in the guild. Hopefully I can start getting some runs in with the group.
Yeah, I suppose that time wasn't a very other-time-zone-friendly time to get started. Even worse yet, I wasn't able to get on today until late late late(around 10:30) due to some fatherly duties that took a tad longer than expected.
On that note - if we try to get together say around 6:30-7:30PM CST to form up - would that help make it more do-able or is that worse? If you don't mind, please post here if you plan on making it! If there are no objections by that time tomorrow and peeps are on we can get started!

GeauxTime9: yeah i saw that i just don't know what to do that will give me the best fps. Any opinions?
I'd definitely see if you have any updates for drivers. What type of system are you running AMD/Nvidia on-board or it could be a few other types? Laptop make and model number if you aren't sure and we can find it. An easy way to have your FPS always show is to download FRAPS(you can set it up to use the on-screen display[OSD] only by disabling all the other features). Personally I love MSI afterburner( Link) it is incredibly customizable and last time I checked it worked for all types of graphics processors/drivers to display FPS and other data on-screen. Actually, I lied - the easiest way to see your FPS is to have your options open while in-game and it tells you in the bottom right corner of the screen.
:rotflmao:
As far as in-game settings go if you are looking for a great boost to performance start with the "Settings Preset:" under Options> Display> Advanced Settings set that to "Best performance". Then go up to the top of that same page and make sure resolution is set to full screen. After that go through all the advanced settings(other than the preset you changed earlier) and make each one either "Low" or "None" except for where it says "Render Sampling" you want "Subsample" or "Native". Last you can try unticking all the stuff at the bottom(esp. hires textures). FPS of around 20 is actually playable, lol.
P.S.: Almost finished with mah [WarS] project(s)! I hope it'll really simplify some stuff for us as a guild.
Edit reason: OMG sorry for the text wall, it just happened. :spank: :spank:
Thanks holmes!
Congrats on the hangover!
:cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

Sounds like a plan to me! I'll help!
BTW!
I got on last night, man it was dead! Got on today, little later than expected, but it was a little before 4PM CST. Few guys are on doing stuff, not enough to do any runs, so no biggie!
I am going to log off for a bit to do some work on projects for [WarS]. If you guys that are down for runs end up getting on, if you don't mind, post here so I know to log back on. If I stay logged in while I'm trying to do something productive....well, let's just say it's never good. :nana: :spank:
If nothing else - I'll be back on around 8pm CST at the latest. RUNS RUNS RUNS!!! I WANNA DO RUNS!!!
Much better....

I forgot to mention, if anyone is interested I'd kinda like to put together a EM "grinder" group Sunday - starting anytime in the earlier afternoon(2:00ish CST) and keep it going for as long as possible. Hopefully with the intentions of cranking out EM mode runs for the better part of the day.
This is all contingent upon whether or not we have enough people and whether or not peeps actually want to spend that kind of time in-game in one sitting. If not, no biggie, we can always go WvWvW or check out some pvp/spvp.
***Disclaimer***
[WarS] "Grinder-Group" is not responsible for wife or g/f aggro! Please do not get her on your aggro list! Use your de-taunts to keep her happy! IE: RL>PvX.
P.S.: This entire post could not have been nerdier-er-er. :cool: :pimp:

Damn that Dishonored game!!! :banghead:
Between that and work being nuts I have had little time to GW2-it-out the last few days. I have almost beaten Dishonored, so not much more of that consuming my time!
Also, on a brighter note, I am off work for 5 days!!!! WUWU!!! I will def. be doing a lot of GW2 action! I am also working on a few projects to try and help us organize resources and information for GW2 and for our TD guild [WarS]!! :bow:
NOTE for any interested in getting story mode(SM) done for dungeons:
In light of the aforementioned 5 days off work I will be trying to put together guild groups every night around 9:00CST(hopefully we can crank out at least 2 story modes a night for those that still need).
SO for anyone interested in helping/doing runs or needing SM runs and available any of the next 4-5 nights starting October 13th - Saturday night - I am going to put together guild runs to -
Primarily get the prerequisite for explorer modes - story mode done for all dungeons as much as we have those that need it. I still need a few SM runs myself actually(I think the last 2, maybe 3).
Secondarily - run WTH ever anyone else wants to run!! Definitely does NOT have to be PVE only, if peeps wanna rape up some PvP or WvWvW - I'm game!
Basically I am lonely and want to spend some QT with some guildies.
OK j/k about being lonely...
or am I???

lol, who's pokin fun of Rukky? I thought you were hilarious last night. Esp. the comment about stubble.
FYI! : Any that are interested in doing some more runs tonight are welcome to attend, I will be on all evening for the most part, Merrik should be back on soon, hopefully a few more folks. Plan on running whatever everyone wants!
P.S.: As long as it isn't AC explore path 1, hah!
BTW! : Found this website for dragonbrand community organization! Forums, hooooo!

HiHohhhhh!
Was talking to Rukky (Dourden - I think, on these forums) about getting some kind of group(s) together tonight to run as much as people want/need to run. I am definitely down to run whatever people need/want, I am going to assume/force merrik/doldil is coming, hopefully Rukky too. Who else wants to knock out some stuff tonight? Anything is game!
I just finished making my exotic set of heal gear/heal weaps, so I'm ready to keep us alive! Or try to anyway. Holla at me if you are interested in having gear/weapons made - of course I'll make them at cost of mats no charge for guildies.
Btw Doldil - I need to employ your jewelry making skills for some lvl 80 heal trinks. Also - you have mail.

So what was the issue? I must have missed that!
OH btw, holy nerdiness batman!
Use this site in conjunction with the gw2spidy.com link i posted earlier to make items on the BLTC preview-able!!!!!!
Not sure if you want to buy an item b/c it might look like huflungdoo? Find item in question on gw2spidy.com and click on it, then look for the URL up at the top - at the end you should see some numbers, copy those numbers then go to the form from my first link in this post. Plug those numbers in and hit the "Submit" link. VOILA!!! Paste everything from the box below "Submit" into game chat. (To coin the popular phrase: Protip - /w yourself as to not attract unwanted attention!)

Oh my, just...
oh my great great uberness of usefulness!!!!
The single most useful website EVER for GW2.
I want ^^^^ to have my babies!
The Black Lion Trading Company data comes from a server separate from the game servers and is actually hosted on an apache like server(same stuff that makes up most websites!) meaning that you can actually log in with your account details and poll said server & it will return for sale and sold data!!!
Maybe this isn't news to you guys, but omfg! it is to me!!!

Sure, anytime...just hit me up in-game - my mains name is Draecas or go by fracted.9136. The mystic forge is kind-of an unknown quantity when it comes to what all one can create with it. But I do have a resource(link or google doc, id have to find it) that has an incomplete work-in-progress list of recipes for the mystic forge. I remember a specific section containing PVP recipes.
I'm not at home at the moment, but when I get back I'll see if I can't find the link.
As far as the above quote, to my knowledge it depends on how you enter initially. If you go in as a "squad/party" to the free tourneys then I think it gives you a 5 minute window to hop in once the battle starts, if you don't want to join in, you don't have to, but as long as someone from the original party continues on to the next battle, everyone else can join in if they want or not if they dont.
Too bad you can't research an upgrade that gives the guild 24/7 access to a battlefield wherein we can hop in and beat on each other whenever we like! :cool:

Sadface :wah:
I should have done less level grinding and more sleeping. Apparently I missed out on all the pvp!! :wah: :wah:
:lol:
In response to Mr. Sick Freak, all ya need to do is check out the glory rank 1 merchant in the Heart of the Mists zone & buy a PVP salvage kit. This will allow you to break down pvp items(except the free ones) into various component materials needed to "craft" pvp gear using the mystic forge. You can also purchase "tokens" from said vendor that are specific to each slot(ie: head, feet, etc), I think it works the same way with weapons, but I could be wrong there.
--------------------------------------------------
Also, on a side note, I always hear Rukky and a few others talking about the dwagons being up or not & I came across this resource that is kept current as best as I could tell:
Google Doc with last killed and projected next spawn times for dwagons!

Glad to hear that much money wasn't kept from making you more of it for too long.
For me, multiple items that I had tried to buy unsuccessfully (confirmed as not purchased by error msg from BLTC) apparently were actually being purchased. The purchase and thus the debit of money didn't occur until some 20 minutes to half hour later. It actually debited me for every attempt to purchase.
I guess the silver lining is that at least I got the items, right?

Windows update fixed it? bwahahahah!! :banghead: :nana:
On another note, was curious if anyone else lost money with the BLTC issues today and whether or not they have heard anything back. I realize that the BLTC is still down, but I'm kinda anxious to get my gold and a half back. :wah:
