I haven't been on since the game has little to keep me interested atm.  It's missing the character progression of feeling like your getting stronger, and good open world pvp to fill the gaps with random fun while playing in the open pve world.  I'm holding tight till the wvw update comes out till I decide on what to do further with the game.  That and what the balance patch does to spvp, hopefully removing the full tank teams thing that's plaguing pvp atm.  Sorry for the sudden drop sanji, was going to message you soon about it but this thread popped into my email so i threw it in here

If you do get a dedicated team going in the guild eventually for the raid sanji let me know.  I'm not going to uninstall, and I'm always willing to come help with big stuff like raids and fill any role needed.  But for now I've started playing Tera, if you get past the skimpy clothes it's actually pretty fun combat so far.  No idea what it's like late game yet though, so it might end up sucking lol

[Silvernis]

Been wondering where you disappeared to, Shuttles. Tera is OK. The combat is pretty good, albeit slower-paced, though that's about the only thing that differentiates it from any other Asian MMO I've played. The questing/leveling mechanics are painfully same-old-same-old.

I'm torn on GW2 raids. I liked the raid itself the few times we attempted it, but all the time we spent standing around doing nothing while trying to find people to fill out the group was seriously frustrating. If we had a team set up and ready to go—and ready to keep at it for more than one or two attempts—it might be different, but without that...meh.

[shuttlewrth]

Like I said, if we had a premade group for it I'm down(schedule permitting).  Tera is ok like you said silvers, just got xenoblade chronicles X today though so Tera is going on the side burner as well

I'll keep in touch for the raid business and maybe after I've had my fill of xeno I'll make my way back to GW2.  It's not that I don't like the game, it's just that I'm bored with the staleness of it for now.  After a small break I should be good for a while again...And maybe with a new computer to boot by then!

Guild hall level 40 as of 12pm tonight.
Managed to 8-9 man a 3 bounty mission was nice.
Cheers

[Silvernis]

40? Well, then. Time to see what horrible crafting nonsense I need to suffer through to get my shiny purple mace.

Speaking of suffering, we owe Nessa for all the scribing stuff.

[Sanji]

You cant have your shiny mace until we reach 10,000 aether for the weapon level 2 upgrade.

I did try and give her a lot of the mats for the wants that I asked...am staying away from that trick sentence if not I wont be able to be in eotm and rebelling so much...

[Sanji]

So yeah tonight the upgrade should be popped Silvers, probably cost some gold to buy the recipe and hopefully youll have enough guild commendations also.

Cheerio
Diablo Evil Sanji

[Silvernis]

Cool. I think I'll have enough commendations, though I'm not sure about the crystalline ore (and hopefully weaponsmithing isn't too expensive).

[Sanji]

weaponsmithing is the first I finished since do exotic weapons for the toons you use that don't have exos or ascended yet.
yeah crystalline ore:(

[Sanji]

Been a fun evening the new guildies have been pretty cool
Cant wait to toss our Dreader Pizza Lover into level 50+ fractals hee hee

[nessarena]

We did low levels with him  going though them a couple times he will be good to go

[Silvernis]

Maybe we'll get more ascended drops.

[shuttlewrth]

Hey sanji, I noticed last night while I was on you guys, and gals, were running guild missions.  Do you normally do them Saturday nights or just sporadically through the week.  I'd like to help with them but don't have as much time to play as I did a while back, so if they are on a certain day that you all are mostly on and you try to knock them out I'd love to join along to help.

[Sanji]

Saturday/Sunday midday or evenings since I cant do them in the week with my working hours.

A lot of people can activate them if they fill like doing it in their small grps  also.

Welcome Back Slacker:P

[Silvernis]

We should try guild puzzles again.

[shuttlewrth]

Slacker

It's not my fault Anet gives us major content draughts and I finally had enough waiting and moved on to other games I have that I wanted to play in the down time . Maybe if they finally start putting stuff in the game other then glider skins my wife and I would play more as there would be something to do.  I can probably make Saturday nights my night that I focus on guild missions, can't do Sunday though as I work that night.

[Silvernis]

Yeah, things have been pretty slow since HoT dropped. The new story stuff apparently won't be arriving until July or thereabouts, and there's still no hard dates for anything WvW. (The longer they take with WvW, the more I'm convinced it's not a priority and/or they don't know WTF to do with it.)

In the Reddit AMA, it was said that the WvW team had their top priority as fixing population imbalance, rather than addressing any of the other myriad problems. And it'll happen someday, maybe this year. Mmmhmm.

They also admitted they "overscoped" their big, much-talked-about WvW update—surprise!—so once again they're not going to deliver what they said they were going to and instead will continue to string us along with talk of "incremental" updates. We all know they're just going to scrap servers and make everything EotM-style, so I wish they'd just do it and get it over with.

Bleh. I'm finding it harder and harder to stay positive where ANet is concerned. GW2 is an excellent game and does so many, many things right, which makes it all the more frustrating when ANet seems so completely out of touch with their own product.

Is there room for one more? I'd love to get more involved in the community aspect of Guild Wars 2 and this guild looks like a perfect jumping off point! Just to get some details out of the way, I have played the original Guild Wars for many years, and have currently found time, motivation and an absolute all consuming fire to play Guild Wars 2. I am currently working on a level 38 necromancer and am (at least I would like to think) above the skill level of a noob.

I don't really have a strict schedule that I can play for the more organized events of the Guild, as my college work can demand more or less of me depending on the day; but, I am mostly available on weekends and can be found occasionally on the week days depending on my work loads.

My characters name is Halash The Heretic, if you would have me.
