[@that_shaman@mstdn.social](https://mstdn.social/users/that_shaman) Amazing work! If anything or anyone can save this expansion for me it's **Peitha**. Of course this would mean that she turns out to be the ultimate villain in the end, but we cannot stop trusting her nonetheless.

I've just watched WP's stream where he tries out the new weapons (beta) and I'm rather unimpressed. I'll wait until they are actually finished and we know what the final numbers are. What really irritates me are the alternate implementations of existing concepts like the combo fields on guardian pistol.

Re-posting from my lemmy.wtf
account, since outgoing federation from lemmy.sdf.org
appears to be broken at the moment:
@necropola@lemmy.sdf.org said:
Of course I don't know for a fact that LFG actually checks subgroup 1 to figure out whether a squad's map is full, but it seemed pretty plausible.
Also, I didn't say that map full detection is in any way related to the squad size limit. The question is how does LFG determine whether a squad's map is full? Does it actually check the map of the squad's commander (squad might not have one) or does it check the map of the first player in subgroup 1 (which is what I think).
I have even seen squads to explicitly use subgroup 1 as a lobby/queue for players not in the commander's map (yet) which would be really bad, if LFG actually uses the first player of subgroup 1 to check whether the squad's map is full.

I'm looking foward to the offhand pistol buffs and the Relic (of Aristocracy) fixes for my Celestial Mechanist. This should significantly increase the damage.
Mechanical Genius: For a short period of time, the effect will remain active even after the mech moves out of range of the engineer
Not quite clear, why they don't get rid of this mechanic/penalty entirely, knowing how much the Mech enjoys to wander off.
Overall, mostly buffs, so probably most will be happy.

Well, they found GS to be too strong on non-Vindicator, nerfed it to the ground and buffed some Vindicator traits instead, e. g. damage increase after dodge. I'm getting tired of this messing around for the sake of "balance".

You can also send an in-game mail, if you neither find Meldrk (meldrik.3572)
nor me (xlion.3065
or brogrum.1309)
being online. Please state your account name in that mail (though I think guild invitation via character name work, too).
And don't forget to once in a while open the guild panel when you are in-game to check for a pending invitation to our guild.
Oops, I should have posted this from my Necropolaβ account.

... but you wouldn't equip an Ascended Celestial piece on a pure power build, because it would be worse than an Exotic piece with Berserker, Assassins or Marauder stats. Unless you are very desperate for Agony Resistance, but in that case you should probaly change stats.

Don't you get a Raptor mount at level 10 when you have bought any of the existing expansions, i. e. HoT, PoF or EoD?

Wow, this was weak.
Also, I thought Anet wouldn't use Twitter as the primary platform for publishing news/media anymore.
We are not able to predict how future updates to Twitter's policies may impact our official account's availability, and it's important to us that all players have a reliable source of news about the game, your accounts, and our studio. We will continue to communicate on Twitter like we have previously, but we will make our news and announcements forum our first location for "breaking news" on issues that affect things like the live game service. The Guild Wars 2 forums are visible regardless of registration or login, and we will keep it that way.
So for "issues" we have to check the forums and for (SotO) news we still have to check Twitter and/or the official web site? What a mess.
And how many Rifts or Rift-like events is Anet going to (re-)implement?

I hate it when core mechanics are disabled to increase difficulty or rather when the challenge is us being inconsistent since we are ArenaNet.

@meldrik@lemmy.wtf It's all over now ...
https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/issues/840
I'm happy to endorse a fellow Rust project, Lemmy! Lemmy is a federated, decentralized, free, and open source alternative to Reddit that has shot up in popularity since the Reddit API news.
https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit/issues/411
Most instances I use are getting 429 errors today. Is there any plans for circumvention?
Lemmy is the New Reddit
As an alternative to Reddit and tedd.it, I invite you to try [Lemmy}(https://join-lemmy.org/), an alternative to Reddit built for the Fediverse. It's free, open source, and not controlled by a company or central entity. Many of those who left Reddit following the chaos have found their home there.

Yeah, it's almost funny how difficult it is to find authoritative information about which (communication) restrictions exist between regions. I only have EU accounts, so I can't help. Sorry.

.. and do their next AMA on lemmy.wtf instead of reddit. π
The current 0.18.1-rc.x
which is running on lemmy.world was a huge performance improvemen, i. e. lemmy might actually be able to handle such things in the near future.

It seems like (at least) the unauthenticated endpoints of the reddit api are still working. and hence is libreddit as well as teddit.

I (Necropola) am writing this from an account on another instance since I can now no longer login at all. After going through the "forgot password" procedure I'm was logged in for a few minutes and then I was logged out again (cookie expired?).
After 3 password resets this does not work anymore either and I'm now permanently logged out.
Also, the instance is painfully slow after the update to 0.18.1-rc.4/-rc.7.
... and image transparency in post thumbnails no longer works.

Most likely. The probably not for very much longer
in my post is a link. π
But as long as it works you could swap out the r/guildwars2
link on the sidebar for one which uses libreddit, e. g.
- [r/guildwars2}(https://safereddit.com/r/guildwars2)
Also you could write the sidebar links to other communities in an instance agnostic way like
- [m/guildwars2](/c/guildwars2@kbin.social) (kbin)
- [c/mmorpg](/c/mmorpg@lemmy.ml)
- m/guildwars2 (kbin)
- c/mmorpg
which works on any instance which already knows the magazine/community.
I think lemmy-ui-0.18.0
has a feature which does this automatically:
This is the comment I saw on lemmy.ml
which mentions this new 0.18.0
feature:
Sadly the same will not work for posts and comments since those are uniquely numbered per instance instead of having a global UUID:
cross-posted from: https://lemmy.wtf/post/34219 Some [instances](https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit-instances/blob/master/instances.md) ([JSON](https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit-instances/blob/master/instances.json)) are still working, but [probably not for very much longer](https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/issues/785), e. g. - `US, v0.30.1` https://safereddit.com/r/guildwars2 - `DE, v0.30.0` https://libreddit.pussthecat.org/r/guildwars2 - `DE, v0.25.0` https://libreddit.de/r/guildwars2 This may help to get the **GuildWars2** community here up and running.

I find pure condition builds too slow in Open World. Especially when you go to Core Tyria Zones where a Power Build pretty much one-shots everything and is off to the next target while a Condition Build is still ramping up its damage. Not to mention weapon racks and other environment targets which are still pretty much immune to condition damage in Core Tyria Zones.
