[edit] Grawl Mesmer Gear

Please post the price as the high-end and not a note just saying it could be much higher. Thanks — Gares 10:27, 19 February 2007 (CST)

was purple from a chest, did not think its value would be appropriate ~Soqed Hozi~ 11:40, 19 February 2007 (CST)

Of course it is. That is why the heading Sell Value is there. Whether it comes from chest or a drop, it's still recordable. — Gares 12:01, 19 February 2007 (CST)

Also drops from chests should not be noted, unless that is the only place they drop from (see Jade Gorget). --Rainith 21:37, 19 February 2007 (CST)

Point of note: There is no basis on Rainith's advice found in GuildWiki:Style and formatting/Items — Gares 07:18, 20 February 2007 (CST)

Rebuttal: Chests have never been listed for these types of items, with the exception I noted. If you feel that they should, the talk page for the S&F would be the place to bring it up. --Rainith 12:02, 20 February 2007 (CST)

[edit] Reminder

Hey, you posted as a contestant in my build contest, but I haven't received a link for at least one of your builds and judging will begin sometime next month, so if I don't have your build(s) your build(s) won't be judged. Defiant Elements (talk ~ contribs) 00:29, 31 March 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Image Titling

Soqed, your images Image:Derv.jpg, Image:Rit.jpg, Image:Para.jpg are too generically titled. If you could re-upload those images with a more descriptive name, by following the directions for image naming at GW:IMAGE#Image titles and file names, it would be much appreciated. --User:Albinobird 00:34, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

np, I did have that concern, but am noit sure why I did not follow it...~Soqed Hozi~ 02:41, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Why is it in the main namespace? -Auron 10:40, 19 April 2007 (CDT)

oh yeah..forgot that, I'll slap the delete mark on it again (its not mine btw) ~Soqed Hozi~ 10:43, 19 April 2007 (CDT)

Skuld is quick :P -Auron 10:43, 19 April 2007 (CDT)

so are you, i only just posted that! xp ~Soqed Hozi~ 10:44, 19 April 2007 (CDT)

[edit] User Page Templates

Hi, I like your page and I "stole" the idea of the template. I hope you won't be angry, because I also add a credit with your name. --GlennThePaladin (Talk,Contrib) 08:40, 10 May 2007 (CDT)

np :D I spent much time on those templates so I am glad people can use them (or the same code at least). ~Soqed Hozi~ 10:35, 10 May 2007 (CDT)

I spent some time too because I didn't know even what what was a template! --:-) GlennThePaladin (Talk,Contrib) 10:46, 10 May 2007 (CDT)

Hey I'm going to yoink them too...They're really intense and I think it's a great idea, I'll put a link at the bottom too. Thanks! --Illusion of End 22:07, 16 May 2007 (CDT)

Actually, the comment above the one that I'm replying to is about those, I'm trying to figure out how to make them with some help. Right now they are just temporary. Or if you want to help me that would be welcomed, I don't know how I would write the HTML/wiki script. --Illusion of End 22:59, 20 May 2007 (CDT)

okay:

• in the search box on the left enter User:<user name>/navframe
• select create this page
• copy and paste all the text from my navframe page at User:Soqed hozi/template/Navframe
• Relace any instances of Soqed hozi with your user name
• Then reapet the above process, but this time create the page User:<user name>/Navframe icon
• Copy and paste from my page User:Soqed hozi/template/Navframe icon
• Again, replace all instances of Soqed hozi with your username

then to insert into your page, do the same as you are alrdydoing, but use the new navframe page you have made instead of mine.

Sweet! thanks much!! --Illusion of End 16:59, 21 May 2007 (CDT)

Can I use it? Ron Ng 16:02, 28 June 2007 (CDT)

sure, just remember to credit me. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 17:39, 28 June 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Summon Spirits

Not that it was me who reverted your change, but the description for Summon Spirits is kind of ambiguous. Subjects and predicates and the like =P. The comma could mean that each of the effects is separate, meaning "gain # health" means you gain health, or they could be misusing a comma. It's a really unclear description. My guess is that it heals the spirits, since what's the point of healing yourself for that minimal amount? But I haven't used the skill. If you've used it and know as a fact it heals the spirits, could you put it on the skill's page too? So people don't revert your changes again. (that is, if what you put is true, I don't know) --Heelz 17:27, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

[edit] User Page

Hi , I'm redoingmy user page and I'm gonna borrow your character boxes and some of the design elements ,I'll credit you , hope you don't mind. BTW could just take a look over my page and give me some pointers? Cardsharp 07:21, 7 September 2007 (CDT)

no problem — ~Soqed Hozi~ 09:17, 7 September 2007 (CDT)

thanks for the tips but there's some stuff I don't get , some of my images are ok but the others are a bit off to the side can u see what's the problem?Cardsharp 00:49, 8 September 2007 (CDT)

I made changes to your page. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 02:27, 8 September 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Meleemancer

May I ask why you removed most of the Meleemancer article?-- (Talk) (Contr.) 16:01, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

I am re-adding it with a proper article. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 16:01, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

What do you mean, "proper article"?-- (Talk) (Contr.) 16:03, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

You seen how it looked before? it was a story and contained nothign of any use. Read the talk page for an idea of the page quality. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 16:08, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

Actually, I didn't read it before, and I guess I should've.-- (Talk) (Contr.) 16:09, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

[edit] Paragons

Clearly you are a PvE player, in PvP the paragon has gone from near constant 50% damage reduction and maxing out energy on the backline with ease, to the point before the latest nerf. GftE spam meant you had practically unimited energy, letting a character with 2 energy regeneration spam out ridiculously expensive skills while buffing the frontline, dealing sword warrior DPS (without the drawbacks of double damage from frenzy) and being able to laugh in the face of someone trying to kill him. Now it has to actually kite from damage, and still has half decent energy. That PvE suffers for PvP balance has always been the case and in Guild Wars, always will be. Lord of all tyria 20:33, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I play both pve and pvp. Infact, in pve i didnt use AR anyway. pvp para is terrible. You cant compare the dps of a para to a sword warrior, it just is nothing like it. I used cruel spear spam with AR and constantly hitting 30-35dps (cruel spear, barbed spear, spear of lightning) with a max hit of 90 (only ever that high, a critical-cruel spear-sundering mod triggering. The energy was not fantastistic, when in smaller groups energy does not come so easilly. Also, gtfe was never powerful enough to warrent a recharge time, one-off 60% chance to critical, hard to synergize with attack skills, and 4 adrenaline for all that, that dont warrant a recharge time at all. paras should be returned to how they were. heck, even the para pve skills get nerfed, sure the leadrship thig was fine, it just makes paras more desirable, butt the double recharge was dumb, seeing as its pve and imba skills dont matter. Now I may as well take something else, if only anything else was decent, its all nerfed. why nerf things, when they could just make them different. incoming at 10 adrenaline, 6 second duration would be fine (like sf is for burning duration). Theres another thing to rant about, eles keep being buffed! why!?!??! — ~Soqed Hozi~ 21:47, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Most of these problems arise from Primary Attributes. They should of never given an adrenaline class energy management. That's the whole issue right there. IMO, they should change the Para Primary to Shouts/Chants last " "% longer. I also think they should change Ranger Expertise Attribute to 4% longer on ONLY Nature Rituals, and change Ritualist Spawning Power to 4% reduction energy cost of Binding rituals, with the same current addition to health/weapon spells. Ritualist Energy management sucks. It almost always requires use of an elite (and with that change to rit primary, tone down some of the other elite binding ritual related skills such as Ritual Lord, Attuned was Songkai, etc). But anyway back to Paragons. I think they just need to fix the Primary Attribute of Leadership. Adrenaline plus Energy Management = big NO NO. --Lann 22:23, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

lol u on crack? paras have ONE adrenaline shout, gfte, and only a few adrenaline chants, anthem of envy (6 adrenaline, 1 sec activation), song of concentration (2 sec activation, 5 sec recharge, 8 adrenaline), the rest are a few motivation chnts of about the same activation and requirements as envy. paras dont always want long lasting shouts, as ending shouts are nice sometimes (old AR included). expertise is ok, and so are all the primary attributes. If anythign strength needs a buff, but it has the most, and the best of all primary attributes, skills. Fix paras back to their old way, maybe leave sing of resto as is, as it was quite powerful, but otherwise give paras a fix. they rae supposed to be inspirational leaders, let em be, not the unwanted few. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 22:30, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] = Help Please

Hey soqed hozi I just made an account and i really like your page's set up. I saw you said to several people they can use it if they credit you. I am trying to get the set up on my page but I don't understand how to do it. I read what you said before in the templates section but I still don't get it. :-/ Any help would be very much appreciated. :-D

please sign comments with ~~~~ so I can get to your page easier. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 21:39, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

how do you link your name to your comment? jsut by typing those things? XxGREENYxX 21:48, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

yes — ~Soqed Hozi~ 21:47, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I am intrested in your character section. Could you show me how I can try to do what you have on your page with your characters XxGREENYxX 21:56, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

sure, here come sthe in-depth guide.

begin the section with {| style="background: transparent; border: transparent;" |

then add the follwing for your first character: {| width="250" valign="top" style="background: {{[INSERT PROFESSION ABBREIVIATION HERE]-color|background}}; border: 2px groove {{[INSERT PROFESSION ABBREIVIATION HERE]-color|border}}; padding: .5em 1em; margin: 1em;"| {{[INSERT PROFESSION ABBREIVIATION HERE]}} '''[INSERT CHARACTER NAME HERE]''' [[Image:[INSERT USER NAME FOLLOWED BY PROFESSION HERE].jpg|225px]]

add your info and stuff

repeat the start of a charatcer section for each character on that row, once you have all the ones you want on that row, add |- to the start of the next character to move it to the row below.

at tghe end of the character section use |} </div>

I use the overflow bow to fit it inside my areas easier, seperate it can be done differently, but its not required as the overflow works just as well.

hope this helps. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 22:06, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I will try my best. I will write back when I have done it or....completely lost(hopefully not)XxGREENYxX 22:13, 18 October 2007 (UTC) 22:13, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

So far I have put the first section in but for some reason I can see some of what I put in on the edit page on my user page :-/ XxGREENYxX 22:35, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

I am sorry. I just can't get it. I put the next section in, fill in my character's abbreviation but it doesn't work and when I go to my main user page, I can see what I wrote in the edit section. Thanks for trying to help me though. :-/XxGREENYxX 23:42, 18 October 2007 (UTC)

Lemme help u out here then. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 06:23, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Paragons

I want to do things to you that would get me banned --Blue.rellik 01:07, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

good or bad way? — ~Soqed Hozi~ 06:23, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

I would probably be charged with murder --Blue.rellik 06:45, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

lols. ur an idiot u know that? tell me, do you play a para? have you experienced how underpowered they are? probably not. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 06:54, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Lawl wut? What part of near-infinite energy is underpowered? What part of having the second highest armour in the game is underpowered? What part of being ranged is underpowered? What part of having sword level DPS is underpowered? What part of being able to easily maintain 'Save Yourselves' without gimping themselves is underpowered? Oh wait, that's right the 'general opinion' say they suck so they must suck right? Yeah general opinion more often than not is the idiot's opinion. Do you know what kind of party was involved that beat Mallyx the first time legit? It was largely a Para/Warrior group that exploited the brokeness of the Paragon PvE skills (which the paragons could easily chain and not worry about energy). You can ask any good player (IE not the general public) and they'll tell you that the Paragon needed the nerf because of how overpowered it is. Yes I personally haven't played paragons much but I've sure as hell had plenty in my party (knowing how awesome they are) and they are unrivalled in party-wide protection (and they don't have to gimp their weapon to do it either). No please tell me what made them even close to being underpowered. Please, go ahead --Blue.rellik 07:24, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

Hmm. This seems to lead back to my opinion. (No, I'm not stupid, just change most of the shouts to adrenaline cost. But I thought that would be self explanatory). --Lann 10:50, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

OMFG!!!!!!!! Paragons dont have sword warrior dps! infinate energy my rear end! no1 claims necros soul reaping is overpowered! paras have decent armour, but lok at wot they are meant to represent! and its meagre in comparison to other classes who have armour bonuses vs damage types inherit in their armour. how would you know a thing about paras, urs is lvl 11 u nubber. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 08:19, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

14-27 dmg per attack, not reduced by kiting, results in sword warrior DPS. GftE + WY spam is enough energy to spam 15 energy spells on a character with warrior regeneration. 80 base AL +10 form insignia + 16 from shield; yeah, that's much worse than an ele with 60+20 against one element. Lord of all tyria 20:19, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

of course, cus eles cant use INSIGNIA also. Why are so many people on wiki (all of them) really oblivious nubbers. You know what, I will let you think what you like, ok? Just understand I think what I think, and as the userbox says, I am stubborn. IMO, paragons are underpowered. If you all think they are so great and eles so inferior, how come in any outpost, city, arena or guild hall, you will see as many eles as the other professions, but only a few paragons. NVM, you won't understand. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 20:48, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Its worrying that you think an ele has a base armor of 60+20 without his insignia...read properly please. Lord of all tyria 18:22, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

learn to rwad properly. i said the ele can use the insignia so they dont have to have +20 vs damage type anymore. — ~Soqed Hozi~ 18:34, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Because general GW community is ignorant and can't play Eles for shit other than SF (T/C) 18:29, 28 October 2007 (UTC)

Maybe Im a little late in this topic but I want to join in. I would put it like this "one paragone, several paragowns". Seriously what was Anet thinking when they made this class, creating it so that it only synergied with itself and some warrior shouts and not what so ever with other classes(ok there are a few cases but all the spellcasting classes lowers their energy gain and dps whenever they use spells this makes it not worth it imo). Its the one class that has the least amount of working builds (although the 4-5 builds that does work does so almost too well under the right circumstances). They gave them way too much armor, considering that they are a ranged class (should have been 70 or 60 since they got a shield). They are only useful in endgame 8 player parties (not as useful in 6 player parties but acceptable) and banned from all 4 player parties. I really wish they would buff the paragone, nerf the paragowns and give them better more synergies with other classes. The Anet way of nerfing the Paragon is destroying the game for some ppl, I for one stopped playing the paragone all together.-- (√iktor) 19:49, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

(reset indent) Fair comment Viktor, paragons are very limited in synergy with other classes, even less than the warrior...However, the armour is not too high, the ranger has better armour vs elemental, and is on par with the assasin and dervish, despite having massive range. Think of this away from balance also for a minute, paragons are leaders, champions of their people. They should wear strong (prehaps the nobles view is "the best" for their great leaders?) armour to reflect their strong nature.Dont forget, they only get 2 pips of regen as well. Furthermore, the class is so limited in what it does well, and when it does something well, it gets nerfed...— ~Soqed Hozi~ 20:32, 10 January 2008 (UTC)

The main thing that bothers me is that the paragon isnt as flexible as other classes, they got 1½ style of play and thats it (I count motivation as ½ since its been balanced to only work in 8 para only parties). About armour Paras have more armor against all than ranger does against elemental when they use a shield. I'd say 70 armor and buff all their skill back to what they once were or even make them better than before. However two changes, first off limiting the amount of triggers of finals to say 5-10 triggers before ending and adding an additional 50% recharge of the base recharge for each shout and chant with the same name in the party (if there are 3 in the party with the same chant/shout these would have doubled the recharge). Leadersship needs a change too make the energygain to be based on the total party size (like in 4 player parties each shout would give 2 energy for each partymember (removing the ally part)). There if they did that I would start playing my para again, I can't stand to play her the way it is now.-- (√iktor) 06:48, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Character Pictures

Hey I got my picture up on my user page but it doesn't look very nice. It seems that for your character's pictures you took them in the log-in screen. If so, could you tell me how to make all of the things on the log in screen go away so for the picture? XxGREENYxX 20:49, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

HEY! I got my Necro picture up. Thanks a bunch. Now i just need to get the rest of them :-D XxGREENYxX 21:24, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

I have finally gotten all of my pics up, thanks to you. I just have one problem. My paragon pic is really tiny. Is there a way to fix the dimensions on the editing page?

[edit] heh

u r gud with crop tool for your footer images. — Nova — (contribs) 22:11, 17 February 2008 (UTC)

Never liked gimp. Afterall, if it looks good using Paint (although it takes too long) them why change what is not broke? — ~Soqed Hozi~ 20:54, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
