Anyone have any idea what a critical chance greater than 100% does? I saw someone it Map chat mention having 105%, and my lv23 thief already has a 82% chance.

Was happy to see the AMD profiles updated when I refreshed their page this morn'. Sadly didn't have enough time to see how much it improves my framerate.

These jumping puzzles are amazing, I will be a sad panda when I complete them all. Hope it's a feature they keep on going with, as in adding more of them in future expansions. Also a nice touch that some chest reset so you have just one more reason to go back.

nothing 1000%=100%
atm ppl are saying the "ideal" dropoff point for crit is 50-70% so you can better stack power there (or if you're squishy toughness/vit)

edit: it's like ppl saying, i'm playing on 130fps whilst most monitors can only handle 60 with die hard ppl having a monitor with 120 (who still wouldn't have any gain from the 10difference)
edit2: forgot to say that it's not a bad thing to stack precision since if you gain a lvl the worth of 1precision drops

Looks like some sort of official forum is up.

Yeah, was looking at it earlier - but so far looks like it's just to deal with bugs and issues.

That's what I figured, Thanks, but I played a game recently that a crit >100% could lead to the damage being multiplied by crit damage twice, or three time if >200%. Just double checking.

So I have question..

I understand that since the big exploit with people buying cheap karma gear and selling to a vendor or salvage the karma gear for money Anet decided to removed that ability?
My question is, when I want to replace a item I bought with karma and maybe take out the signet/rune/upgrade component I have put in it, how am I supposed to do that?
And am I supposed to destroy the item now when I can't sell/salvage it?

Thankful for any clarification on this

Pretty sure you can still do that - the exploit wasn't that such a thing was possible, it was that you could do it at a cost of 21 karma per weapon, which is about a third of how much a crude salvage kit costs. In other words, it was that you could get really high end materials and money at the cost of significantly less than a starting-level weapon.

But I can't salvage or sell the items... or get my upgrade components I put in them back at all :/

edit: I even try that black lion salvage kit.. nothing, the item goes "red" as in "nope you will not be able to do this"

so i just got to level 15 and went to the second sylvari zone (cant remember the name) and wow its so much harder than the previous zone despite only being 1-2 levels difference.

Hmm, maybe I was mistaken then. I'm yet nowhere near the level to try it, due to my altoholism... :P

Brisban Wildlands, I think it was called?

That's why it's good to have some company along the way. Even random, doesn't matter.
It happened often to me, spontaneous offers for party or just banding together.
Never seen before, it's nice for a while feeling people around you as companions rather than competitors.

Read about them on the official forums. They're aware of it and are looking into how it can be prevented and/or alleviated - possibly by implementing a "report spam" button directly in the in-game messaging system.

[Vexies]

Yeah it looks like they disabled the functionality for Karma items. On one hand it makes crafted stuff more attractive as well as world drops but it does suck to lose the upgrade components.

[SirRobin]

Unhappy.

He's got some nice ideas in there, though.

Okay, that got me laughing.

I have not seen any yet but it probably won't be long.

So I've spotted some people running around with a rather saucy greatsword that looks like it's made from glass, anyone know what it's called/where to gain one?

Much love

That's the priory greatsword, myself and many others got one when it was 20 silver, if you want one now it'll run ya for 5 gold.
