Guild Wars 2

I can get twice as many drops/Gold/karma with 1/2 the effort elsewhere….tis a small map with harder mobs and nothing to make it rewarding effort wise.

Why would you/I ever want to go there?

I went there on my ranger for the reeef drake pet. But that’s about it, I guess.

makes no difference to me i uninstalled and wont be back until i see evidence of a coding improvement

Vials of Powerful Blood.

I agree. I went there with a friend and just fought Karkas for 2 hours without getting anything worth the trouble. A few green items, vials of powerful/potent blood etc, thta’s okay, but the amount was definately not worth the time.

The fact that there are veterans litterally everywhere, but who don’t drop anything doesn’t make it more engaging. Unless there’s something to be back for, I won’t.

The opening event where you take control of the Island was cool. But after that there isn’t much to do there.

• There are no hearts.
• No Vistas.
• Fewer events.
• Fewer loot.
• The area is small (and that’s surprising since I has expecting it to use the blocked path of Sparkfly Fen)
• The Waypoints are few and fahr between.
• There are no map complition rewards (or map complition tracking at all for that mater)

Lets hope that stuff will be added with phase 3…

I hate this focus on group events driving the story forward. They just turn into a giant lagfest where half the people can’t even get a kill in to get credit. I’d rather see more instanced quests (ala personal story) used to drive the event forward. Save the group events for filler or loot.

I’d also have liked to see more focus on giving us some juicy bits of lore to discover. Granted, every quest has been bugged for me so all I’ve really been able to do is explore the new island and try the new dungeon a couple times, so maybe I missed something there. I didn’t even see my first karka until the island opened up. There’s been a real lack of cohesion for this whole event.

What happened to the guys that designed the Halloween event? Its been a night and day difference.

Yeah.. I kinda agree, except they dungeon is a great addition.. but that didn’t need to be part of some lost shore event.

Yeah.. I kinda agree, except they dungeon is a great addition.. but that didn’t need to be part of some lost shore event.I personally think a.net is on the wrong path with these monthly events yet ignoring the rest of the game. I would much rather have a bunch of a new content added to existing zones in terms of dynamic events and hearts and so on.. (I know they are adding dynamic events but it still seems like manpower wasted with lost shores.)

Sorry should clarify..I was meaning the PVE Map in Sea of Sorrows…like the dungeon (well HATE certain parts of it but well done) however I just don’t get the PVE map…everyone in my guild I talk to says, “um Passionfruit and Vials Blood..pointless really”.

I’m sure I/we are missing something as it seems crazy to go to all the effort of creating a zone and having people visit it for 30 minutes and never go back.

Run around Southsun for 1 hour.

Do 1 Plinx run (maybe 10-15 minutes).

Reflect on the fact the Plinx run give you 10x loot compared to 1 hour of Southsun.
