I just wished we had henchies there.. I don't have a monk who's finished the game.. so finding a group is difficult .. (I hear b/p groups and Bip necros are wanted) my only character who's finished the game is of the awful profession of Mesmer, meaning.... I WANT HENCHIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, henchies would be prefered to waiting for another few days for the guild to finish nightfall.

 I won't say it's easy. I won't say it's not very, very, very challenging. (I added bold for emphasis, see that?  ) However, I will that that it is do-able. It'll just take us some time and effort to figure out how!  |

I love, when everybody is crying how hard it is ^^. Good, the harder the beter! So kidds can cry more and learn something from the game and "make" parties and leave their henc. at the side.
A-net & Ncsoft keep it up (thru u failed a LOT at l2!).
I didnt flamed, i just stateted my happy opinion ^^.

Well i guess without non enchantmant armor buffs you won't go far there.
I haven't tried it yet but a Winter/Greater Conflaguration Ranger and an Elementalist with Wards should work tremendously well, probably even make it a bit too easy when you're stacking on Mantra of Frost.
I'll try it tomorrow, for now i've had enough ^^

Oh! Gaile!
Question: what bar in Bellevue do Anet employees go to on Friday nights? I work at MS in Redmond and would love to come hang out some evening. I met one of the Anet testers at the Turbine Entertainment party at PAX and would like to hang out more.

I don't think i'll be doing Domain of Anguish because based on what everyone said (those who visited the place multiple times with different builds) that this place will cause nothing but anguish for me if i try to do it. 
Contempt
This is lame... people go out, die, leave game, and RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GOin QQ about it. How is anyone gonna learn how to do the quests when they just leave like a spoiled little ingrate?
The human factor here sucks... I'm excited about an elite area that's actually ELITE, but RED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GORED ENGINE GO pugging there, because I can't stand these little babbies who can't bare to try different things and find a way to win. It's like they can't accept the team just need to change it's build, it MUST be that they monks suck or something.

Any possibility of getting henchies for at least the non-elite mission related areas? I know you guys want to encourage grouping but I hate having to wait for the PuGs to get up to speed on actually clearing areas.
It will be like the Elite mission back when BkBd cleared it.. took us a lot of trial and error to figure out how to beat each part. Anyways, I'm really grateful you guys made this very hard - I want a challenge anyways!

The Makers of Guild Wars must be on a power trip to make Nightfall as hard as it is. our levels are max'd at lvl 20 but yeah going through the game almost all enemies half way through the game are lvl 24 and higher. once u enter the vortex u get almost all sitting at lvl 28 now someone tell me the fairness in that. then all of a sudden WOW they do us a favor and add an elite area wohooo get us all excited about it and boom go in there 1 hit from any enemy and boom your dead.. wow THAT was fun! let's all try it again BOOM die again wow we are having fun now. You wanna sit there and laugh at those trying to beat it, fine go for it... who'll be laughing the hardest when we don't buy the next guild wars cause u think it's fun to make it impossible to do. the reason and the only reason prophecies did so good was cause it allowed US the players to do what we wanted what quests we wanted etc... u make nightfall with 10000 quests so people get bored of playing it.. i have 6 characters to run through nightfall do u REALLY think im going to do it? NO cause the quests are TEDIOUS and boring. The hero idea yes it was a good idea. maybe u should make like u did a stash for materials make one for dye's and key's but that would make to much sense to use your brain instead u want to make a game so HARD nobody is enjoying it anymore. So use any info you might and sit there laughing to the bank cause u made a bunch of money off of this one but u keep screwing around with the guild wars world and environment and changing things so that it's either to hard or to many quests to finish the game people won't buy the next one therefore putting u out of business..
enjoy your success now cause it won't last long.. don't believe me?? do a survey and ask the people who bought your game!

The release blurb says "players" who have finished the game, so is access per account, or still character based would be nice to know, I only have 1 character up to Chantry atm so can't check.
I can see why its hard, but its another case of the Factions elite >> Too easy (or in this case, challenging enough) for the dedicated, full time gamer. Far too hard for the part time gamer.
I'll give it 2 months and you will be able to buy the gemstones.

LOL @ Hale. I'm purely PvE, I've so far managed to kill a grand total of 4 mobs in DoA. I dont have time to test further, but I can hardly wait to. I love a challenge, this will be a challenge.
Thank you A-net.

This is far worse then the any Elite missions in Cantha, and in thoes missions we had at least 12 not 8.

Yea, the Dust Trap bug is fixed.
Anyways, to reiterate... all I want are henchies. Please, please, please, please add henchies so the classes I use that don't become part of the cookie cutter build can actually do some of the fun and challenging quests.

Trappers work. Boring as hell though
I think a Barrage group with at least one CG ranger could work too (not tested yet though).
Possibly, a group with a Life Barrier monk and an Angelic Protection paragon (whith shield of absorbtion and/or seed on him 24/7) and then a whole load of meteor showers might also work (again, not tested yet).
Oh, and, you can Lightbringer's Gaze spike We tried that and got a couple of kills before getting overwhelmed.
This is all ref. the margonite groups btw.
The touchers would be easy to take out with some aoe degen, aoe slowdown (water ele) and kiting. Although it might be slow.
And the mobs in the rly dark area with the light shard thing (i forget what it's called) also seem do-able with good hex removal.

lets all cheer for an enormous group of 30 or so lvl 28 touchers that use dark aura.. i think the only way for those is using 4 rits with Lively Was Naomei and 4 SS's, to SS 4 of them, then the rits to res everyone with Lively, and repeat til they sac themselves

Do be aware, when I see comments like this, I ask QA to investigate and they are kind enough to oblige. Reading further down, it appears this wasn't a genuine bug, and that means I've just wasted a bunch of people's time -- people who could have been working on real bugs.
I don't mean to lay a guilt trip on you, but I will ask everyone to please not post this sort of thing, because it has harmful effects and negatively impacts our ability to improve the game. Ok? Thanks!

After going at it to test out all the monsters and everything, all I could figure out is heavy heavy prot XD. I stygx veil or whatever has the places crawling with basically axxtaxes or however you say there names. My warrior had 3 hits of 114 dmg, with max armor. Im gonna try to run it though, they dont see very quick and I want to scout out an area.
Sir Skullcrasher
Folks, not to bring A-Net down (fine company and great games) but there is little or no AI programmed into this game. You call those enemies have AI in DoA. That is a lie. All they did is load them up to higher level (with higher HP and maybe attack power) and put oh say, 10 to 20 of them in one huge mob after another. Oh yeah, make sure each mob group is close to each others so you can't never really aggro one group.
I would love to go to DoA but what is the ultimate reward you get out of here? Another green weapons or rare items? No thanks, i got quests and missions to finish with my Dervish and Ranger.

Ok nobody knows for sure but im about 70% certain that the Gate of Anguish isnt the elite mission.. Not sure yet as ive given up coz its too hard, but when you go for Razah, you need 4 Stones to get to the next area.. The elite mission I am guessing. So that is where the 12 man party will be, this is just the challenging way to get into the elite mission,
*remembering there was alot about "noobs" getting into factions elite missions because of ferries* -Problem solved, now nobody can get into it

Just watch, Anet will "ease" up the area by tomorrow or maybe sunday.
P.S. I went to check it out, and I saw the "novel" weapon trader.
Can anyone shed some light on how to obtain an Ambrace of Truth?
Also, what are Coffer of Whispers used for?

I think it will be better after some build experimentation and some higher light bringer ranks.

Group comments never work, because even if your thoughts are those of others, they aren't those of everyone's.

Hopefully it falls to the side of fun.

Most of Stygian Veil I noticed is closed off, meaning you most likely either have to be killing the monsters to proceed further which means to get anywhere you <b>have </b> to do quests. I also noticed that you can run in Stygian veil and unlock 1 chest. So far I got a pair of Icy Talon Daggers of Dagger Mastery with a 19% dmg while hexed. Im gonna open a few more chests and see if its golds only
