Taylor's Live Stream of GW2

[Zosimus]

Who in the world was you playing GW2 with in that Twitch livestream? Btw you can use fire on fire mobs

I am about to jump in to do some WvW.

 

[AirmidCecht]

*Raises hand*

Many thanks to Pinnique and Taylor for patiently helping me with quests! :loser:

 

[Zosimus]

I figured it out after I asked on here, as you already know, when I sent you some text messages

I almost spit out my drink when you made the comment " I don't think I have used my weapon yet" lol

I could hear Taylor and you fine but Pinnique I could barely hear.

If you are looking for good XP and loot always do the world bosses in regions they are in. Queensdale has a good run of champion eventd set up and people always announce what boss is up and where. Good way to level up and get some gold pretty quick. You also have a chance at a champion weapon as loot. Link here for you

You can always use http://dulfy.net/category/gw2/ when you are looking at new patches and updates. Great way of figuring out the new content they add every 2 weeks and see all the free goodies you can get.

 

[AirmidCecht]

Awesome, thanks Z!

 

[Zosimus]

I am typing this here so I wont forget. Remind me to give you some awesome twitter names all about gaming. Good way to promote some of your "stuff" on w/e direction Stratics is trying to head towards. I have tons of sites. I know some are all just for the ladies but what games needs some love from our lovely gamer ladies out there

 

[AirmidCecht]

What, I'm not enough?

 

[AirmidCecht]

The forums will go live with Taylor's Twitch stream when we hop into GW2. Right now we're at level 8 - 12 Charr characters. Pro Tips welcome!

Ok go to Queensdale and explore the region.

While you are there do any dynamic event that comes up.

You will see people in chat say Troll, Oak, Spider, Boar and Wasp. These are mini champions but require groups to kill them. I mean like a large group so you will see many players going to these areas inside of Queensdale.

Sell all blue and green loot you don't need to the merchants in cities or villages.. Use the salvage kits on any white loot and send crafting material to bank.

Crafting can make you level faster and be able to make things you need.

Dodge in the game. Don't just stand there in one place. You will take to much damage.

Enjoy the game though. Take time and look at the beauty of the game. Doing this you may find hidden jumping puzzles and such and chests hidden in the game.


Halloween will be coming up soon. last year was super duper fun. So I expect this year will be fun and different.

Last year Halloween promo.

Get excited Taylor and Airmid Halloween is upon us!

There is a Developers Live Stream on Oct 14th

• Take a spooky sneak peek at the Blood and Madness release with ArenaNet devs during the preview livestream on ourTwitch channel on Monday, October 14 at 12PM PDT.

 

[AirmidCecht]

Awesome updates, Z!! Thanks so much, I'm looking forward to hopping back in soon!

 

[Zosimus]

Welcome

Soon better mean like tonight

 

[Zosimus]

Here is some items you can already purchase from the gem store before the Halloween patch on the 15th

Jack-in-the-Box Scythe – 800 gems

• Account bound but becomes soulbound on use.

What does the Dragon firework remind you of below in the video?


Hallows Fortune Fireworks – 200 gems each or 5 for 800 gems

• Four different colored fireworks with 10 charges each and a Hallows Finale firework with only one charge.

 

[Zosimus]

I should add the Lunatic Inquisition event is so addicting and a blast. Either you get chosen as a villager or the ghost that hunts everybody down. You are in a maze and have hiding places and able to gather items to survive from the ghosts. You become a ghost after you are killed by another and join in the hunt for the survivors. Its just like sPvP not WvW. I won many as a villager and as a ghost


Last years video. Just a quick version

 

[Taylor]

Streaming again tonight at www.twitch.tv/stratics.

 

[Zosimus]

I missed it You guys are fun to watch.
