Guild Wars 2

I’m sure we all have some pet peeves with this addition, let’s get them all in one place.

For me:

The Recipes.

Why do so many of them have a Level 80 requirement to learn the recipe? Crafting has never been tied to character level, just crafting level. What is the point of this, other than to force pre-level 80 characters to waste bank space on storing these?

Speaking of wasting space, why even have recipes for the finished goods? Why not just have recipes for the inscriptions/insignias and make the items discoverable? People who might want to try to craft these for profit can just buy them off the TP if they don’t get what they are looking for from the boxes, it’s not like having all these individual recipes is going to make the ability to craft them sparse enough to inflate prices of the finished goods!

Economy. On the plus side, the ability to trade basic crafting mats for boxes may help clear some of the glut for those resources on the TP. On the minus side, you had the perfect opportunity to readjust the value of some of the severely undervalued higher tier basic mats by making them by far the best value at pre-patch exchange rates. Instead, the exchange rate simply reflects the pre-patch selling price for those mats. Long term fixes to the issue would require tinkering with crafting recipes to increase demand, but you had the perfect opportunity to jump start desired corrections and ignored it? WTH guys!?!?!?

I’m sure I’ll find more, but these are just super obvious and super annoying.
