Guild Wars 2 Halloween Event Guide, Part 2

Here's more stuff:

1. Haunted Door farming guide:
Go to Gendarran Fields, Brigantine Waypoint. From there, go north toward the hill. There are usually a group of people who farms the doors, just follow them. Tips on farming: focus on using AoE skills and interact with bags. The Haunted Doors are used to get kills for the Halloween Hunting achievement and getting Trick or Treat bags for the achievement.

2. For those who are looking for the special Halloween Weapon Skins(Greatsaw anyone?) if you've opened some Black Lion Chests and got nothing, you can use items from the BLC to create a Mad King's Chest. Go to the Mystic Forge(middle of Lion's Arch) and put in 1 Candy Corn, 6 Mystery Tonics(from BLC), 1 Boost(from BLC) and 1 Boost in the other slot. Mad King's Chest doesn't require any key to open.

That's it for now, I'll post more later.

Mechwarrior Online Short Review

MWO is creating a lot of stir especially among its playerbase. Some of them dislike the game because of various reasons and the rest defend it valiantly. But regardless of this, is MWO a good game or is it really a big failure?

Mechwarrior Online Performance Tweaking

Mechwarrior Online Beginner's Guide

Let's face it, MWO isn't the easiest game to get in to and the lack of tutorials in-game makes it even harder. But look pass that then you got a complex game involving  a lot of customization and plenty of details. It is an advanced game but sometimes it feels too advanced for newbies, which will pose a s a big problem. Well now, I am also a big noob at this game and still trying to get the hang of it. I found some videos that would help newbies like myself to learn more about how to play MWO and learn how to suck less at the game.

Cherry Tree High Comedy Club Short Review

There are plenty of games out there that are so hyped up but are eventually released and disappointing a lot of people. There are also games that nobody have ever heard of that are hidden from plain sight but are actually fun to play. In my opinion  Cherry Tree High Comedy Club would fit the latter. A time management game with anime-style art where you run around town to level-up your skills and try to improve your friendship with the other characters? sounds quite fun to me.

Borderlands 2 Legendaries & Gaige

Want to hunt those awesome Legendary items in Borderlands 2? Don't know where to go and what to kill? Don't worry, here's a site to help you with that! Happy hunting! :)
http://orcz.com/Borderlands_2_Orange_Loot_Farming_Locations_by_Area

Oh and Gaige(Mechromancer) is so much fun to play and Deathtrap is so much more useful than Axton's turret. Why? because Deathtrap melees the enemy and makes then turn around. Those goddamn shield wielding nomads are so easy to kill because of this. I haven't try Anarchy build but Easy-Mode build(BFF Skill Tree) makes the game, well...easy. Still, it's so much fun! how was your experience with Gaige?

GW2 Boss Spawn Tracker

Like to hunt down world bosses in GW2? yeah, me too :) but isn't it annoying that you have to shout "is dragon up?" each time you log in? or missed that world boss by just a few minutes? Now you can track those world bosses with this nifty site over here: http://gw2spawns.herokuapp.com/ and here: http://guildwarstemple.com/dragontimer/

Remember though that this tracker also needs the support of the players to report when a boss is down. Your help would mean a lot to the other players and hey, other player's help would benefit yourself too :)

So, start tracking, start killing those bosses and start reporting.

Mechromancer Skill Tree

I've been waiting for the Mechromancer class since I saw it as a pre-purchase reward bonus for Borderlands 2 and now Gearbox has released the skill calculator for the Mechromancer. This is definitely a very interesting class, because the available skills really force the player to put points into two trees instead of mostly on one tree like in the other classes. The Anarchy mechanics is also very interesting as it opens up chance of dealing enormous amount of damage up close.

Check them out:
http://www.borderlands2.com/us/skilltree/mechromancer.html

I tried to tinker around with the skill tree and made 2 build that I find interesting:
Beginner Build and Anarchy Build
Yes, I try to focus the skills on one tree just because I like doing that. We'll see how it goes when this class is out :) Beginner Build will have high survivability while Anarchy Build will focus of having high anarchy stacks. Use Tediore weapons for the Anarchy build because you'll be reloading a lot either because of empty clips or trying to regen your health with Discord.

Gaige's ECHO logs:

Yay level 80!...now what?

Well, I've reached level 80 in GW2 since a few weeks now but I'll just post this link here anyway for those of you who are still working your way to level 80 or just got to level 80. What is this link about? it's the level 80 gearing guide that I've found on Reddit, courtesy of Dulfy. The guide contains everything you need to know about gears to get when you get to max level and how to get them, including several advice on gearing. Enjoy!

Slow Down and Look Around

I've been enjoying Guild Wars 2 as is these past few weeks and I never look at the forums or other sites but when I decided to look around the forums and some sites what I found is a bit appalling. The community is actually divided because of a diminishing return issue.

ArenaNet added a diminishing return system recently and this causes an uproar in the community, although of course not all of them are affected and thus not all are enraged at this. But those who are affected rages in plenty of sites and the official forums. It is of course understandable why they are raging, because the DR system itself is not actually perfect and has caused legitimate players to be affected instead of botters as the system is actually intended.

Loadout Beta

When I first heard of Loadout I was of course interested, because the game offers a lot of weapon customization. As I like the customization that are present in Blacklight Retribution(another game that I like) I was looking forward to Loadout. And now, I got into beta :)
