I killed my way the last few levels bro. In a giant quest train through Orr. Then we got demolished and I was 80 and I lawled out of that land.

[/quote]Well, that's because people are stupid and leave their bodies at the boss instead of going back to a waypoint. It scales the boss to the amount of people there even though they're dead and not doing anything. They did start a team dedicated specifically to address complaints about Orr.

That's hilarious. But we didn't make it to a boss, we got up to the part where it's like "GET TO THE ALTAR WITH THE TEAM IN 2 MINUTES BEFORE THEY LOSE MORALE!" and then the team lost morale.

Just ran the numbers and apparently once you factor in the 15% posting fee there is all of 2 viable crafting professions to make a profit. Artificier and Leatherworking. Jeweler can as of the time I ran the script sell adorned garnet jewels for 9copper profit. This is of course assuming you buy all the crafting mats from the TP itself instantly at least. I suppose if you were to go and put in a lower offer that was accepted it would turn out differently (though I can't imagine much). I can pull up a list of the more profitable crafting items, but otherwise crafting is mathematically a moneysink and it's much more cost effective to buy your own gear on the TP than try to craft, unless you're doing it for xp.

[zaneyard]

crafting for a profit is a money sink, however, it's cheaper to use your crafting to craft your own gear than to buy the finished profit off the TP. Most of the time.

Right, I forgot I hadn't calculated the difference in cost. I should run that, see how it ends up. This is attachments aside of course.

[zaneyard]

did the breakout event in wvw with a group of ten randoms.
ended up busting into the tower with the first push, commander badass finally dies

we just rally back and grab him again
i end up getting at least 15 kills after that was over

our group ended up growing to about 25 after that

one guy decides to drop an alpha siege golem and we go take the keep
it was surprisingly fun

also ended up with a level 78 exotic weapon drop at some point when I was solo roaming.

Meant to link this. Christmas Eve this guy put together a runaround in LA as reindeer. I'm in the video at some point, was fun to do.

Does the character I last logged in as show up in the guild menu at all? I've reinstalled Guild Wars 2 and I can't remember my password. The password recovery page wants the name of one of my characters and I can't remember any.

[backfire]

What was your account name? I'll look it up.

Found ya. Doesn't say your last character or anything though :-\

You'll probably have to contact support,if you can provide enough identifying information of the account/yourself to support they'll give you the names to one of your characters. I had to do the same thing for the original Guild Wars because in addition to email/password to login there was a field for character name which you needed to login.

One thing you'll probably need is your CD key. When you bought it, you shoulda got an email with it. Look for an email from noreply@guildwars2.com titled "Thank you for (pre-)purchasing Guild Wars 2!"

I bought it on physical disc so I do have the key. The recovery page even asks for it. It's just a pain that they want a character name as well when I have already provided the CD key.

Burned like 6 gold working on a S/D build for my thief that I scrapped for now. Might go back to it but I have some new ideas for my condi P/D build that I have been using for a long time now. I just feel like not going heavy into shadow arts and acrobatics is a recipe to dying quickly in pvp. I really don't get how people do glass cannon critical strikes. You basically die if someone shits their pants while you're stabbing them in the back.

So IoJ is on it's last breath. Anyone care to suggest we move and to where? LA is pathetically boring now since all the fun people moved out and the server's in a free fall in rankings what with only two or three active WvW guilds left.

I was thinking black gate, Kaineng, or TC maybe FA

I kinda wanted BG because I know they have good www but they might have queues, kaineng and FA basically because lots of IoJ went there and TC just because its seems good all around

Right now im leaning towards BG.

also wouldn't be opposed to just everyone doing their own thing and becoming a cross server guild since with coming guesting having a home server is only for the purpose of WWW. In case people are too lazy/inactive or like IoJ too much to switch

[Coppanuva]

No strong preference on where, I have no strong connections to any...
