Just made a flawless forge-running build; Charge, Sprint, Endure Pain, Balanced Stance, Healing Breeze... Can't even make it past the wurms for some reason, been trying over and over and over and it's just not possible anymore..

So much for Forge-Running since patch

Oh but it is. You should see my guild leader in action. I take more damage at yaks bend than he does in the forge run!
Can't remeber all his skills but i know he has balanced stance, healing signet, charge, sprint and i will survive. Oh and he's a level 20 warrior.
Good luck!

lol, did they add something in today's patch? That would be nice, I'm sick of these people who are collecting fees to help other players skip the game. And then people complain about the bad pve, well duh...

crossing through lornar's/dread/snake dance IS how the game was ment to be played. You dont have to play it that way, but they put it there for others who wish to play it that way.
quit your rush hating..

I hate people who get helped to Droknar's at low levels. Then they go to Shiverpeak arena and beat the crap out of everyone... DUH... I think the more Anet works on decreasing the number of such people or try to make it impossible, the better.
I think that for the benefit of all the players, all the items in the game should have level restrictions - say, you can't get Droknar's armor 'till level 15. Even completely mild restrictions like that would insure that people with great gear would not be able to ruin the fun for newbies in the two starting arenas and PvE. Alternatively, they could screw the level restrictions for entering the arenas and invent requirenment according to how far the person is in the game, since it is so easy to run to so many places. Like, if a person maid it to Droknar's they should fight in the current lvl 15-20 arena, not go back to Shiverpeaks... Or if they run from Ascalon City to Yak's Bend they should fight at the Shiverpeaks arena, even if they are level 2.
They could at least impose level restrictions on the areas such as Dreadnaught's Drift, like they do in most MMORPGS.

Show me where it is officialy written. It is possible, but doesn't neccesarily meant it was "meant to be played" that way. I don't it low level character was "meant to be" in 20+ mob areas.

the fact that it's not even closed up shows it's meant to be there...

I agree that the Rushing is intended, but it is closed up untill you have reached the corrosponding city. Basically, you need another member who can already "see" how to enter the city before you do.

Fortunately I got my last PvE character rushed a day before the patch :P.
=HT=Ingram
I just got my guild to do it with no problem... Just like 20 mins ago... so I don't know what your talking about... I had a level 14 monk, and the rest of the party was lev 20 warriors and Rangers with lev 20 pets... We made it just fine.. It was a little harder then before, but not too much really... If you can play Ring of Fire with little problem, then the Lormars run is not that big a deal... Snake dance was definitely harder then before, but we just made it with 1 warrior running for his life. lol after that its easy as pie... the one thing they did fix was the people using the temple of ages henchies in there to make the run. Meaning having parties of 8/6 size with all level 15 henchmen... They reset it now when you enter the Beacons Perch so they are normal stats and only 6 henchies possible...
Oh btw all you people that rush down there to get armor... Skills are still worth the trip but the armor is almost a waste of time. its easier to go to the desert and get the same class armor as in droknars for FREE from the collectors... Poor sobs... lol

doknar's run = good
I've never done it, probably won't.
Tried to go into lornar's pass once, didn't make it past the worms, perhaps I'll try again someday

To some, just getting generic armor with high stats isn't the point... fashion matters too.

no problem for me try sueroir vigor and absortion and all points in healing strength and tactics

I just got run to draknors with my ele. I did 3 characters the way everyone says it should be done by going thru the story. This time i decided i would do it my way so what i had to pay its my gold i earned it let me spend it the way i want without everyone complaining about it.
Black Forsaken
lol. Your Sig cracks me up...I'm not a big fan of cartoon nudity, but a bunch of the guys in my guild are.
Paladin_Adoni
Im all about fashion LOL. but I got my 1.5K armor through normal gameplay progression. and gees was I happy when I got it. all that waiting, all that fighting, all the progressions. knowing I was nearly at my destination. PLATEMAIL.
made the game alot more exciting for me.
if you've already finished the game, and want to get rushed for the armor, so you can more easily complete quests/etc to get things, go ahead. but really, with PVP unlocks now. thats not a viable reason
blah blah blah, Im stupid dont flame me :P

Its still of a lot faster than the PvP unlock system. Its incredibly inefficient to unlock skills through PvP as opposed to PvE, whereas it makes unlocking runes and mods a bit easier. The point values are a bit low for anything but GvG though, IMO.

I ran it 2 times a few days ago, and have done over 200 times before.

Wow. way to bump a thread from 6 months ago.

hmmm this thread is 6 months old, and you brought it back. Why do people do this?
Arcanis the Omnipotent
Well everyone always bitches about "Use the Search button". Then someone actually does, replies in a thread that already exits, and yet the complaining continues?
You cant have it both ways. Either old threads pop up or new ones about old topics do.
Pick your path.

It's possible, though, some spawns are just impossible, the people you're running shouldn't blame you when you have to do it 5 times before completing, if they do, they don't know how hard it is.
Sniper22
Oh it's definitely possible, I can do it with my Mo/W (and for free too 
). Thats right, Mo/W not W/Mo and its not an invicimonk build either. The guys I hate the most are ice golems with their deep freeze and muddy terrain doesn't overpower it. I can usually make if the avicara near the wurms aren't far back, if there isn't a big group of ice golems thats spread out, and if I time my skills right. It was much easier before the patch(es?) because you could easily fly through the ice golems and there the wurms were less aggroy in the first wurm section.
Hmm this is old lol

If it is impossible, how did I do it today?
Tronny07
thats funny,impossible droknars,haha,if ur a w/mo,try...charge,sprint,shields up,healing breeze,healing signet,purge conditions,balanced stance,and smite hex...its gone through worms so easily,and you could change healing breeze with heal area,caue it really doesnt make a difference when you run...and i still dont understand runners with mending,and endure pain...it makes me so mad,so many people dont know the disadvantages of endure pain,its hilarious...and w/mo,in my opinion,is the 2nd best class to run with,i prefer my w/mesmer,cause its ran from iron mines to copperhammer easily,same with droknars,and i dont use charge,all i need is "Echo" and im good to go(being w/mes,is the only build i think that needs endure pain)...just thought i should say

I see some kids try it...and horribly fall on their faces...
Then I've had runs go smooth as silk.

I've been doing this run a lot. I use endure pain and its saved me a BUNCH of times.
ilikesnapple
figure your a w/r....take a few shouts, balanced stance to counter worms...charge, sprint, storm chaser to outrun practically anything (stack 2 at once). if you have sup vigor and sup dmg reduce along with the right balance of armor against elements and physical, and a sword and shield that also reduce dmg while enchanted or something of that nature. then forge run is easy.
no matter what patches come out, some uber intense korean gamer will figure out a new build to counter that patch. its just like physics, every action results in an equal counter action

WolflordUlrik
The devs ARE against us dont get me wrong but in the case of the droks run, they just want to make it hard so every warrior and their mother aren't running it. I run it with W/R(was hard till I got storm chaser) I only have major runes as well. The run takes moreskill than equipment. I start new chars all the time because I am constantly trying to find new unique builds(i have 2 accounts) so I get ran a lot and only skillful experienced players make that run. All these bandwagon 13yr old Wammo's try it and aren't intimate with their skills, don't aggro correctly, and dont know how they should use the terrain.
It's one of those things made to only futher and encourage "elitism".
