Guild Wars 2

Ok first of all. Releasing new content is awsome and I love the fact that you guys tried. But the place felt unfinnished. Not near as polished as the rest of the world. Take your time next time and make sure the content is just as awsome as the rest of the world.
Second. Make the area a specific level. This auto level crap that lets everyone get into the new stuff right off the bat is bull. If you want to do epic world events set them up so stuff happens in multiple areas across multiple level ranges but do not open a new 80 level area and then make it so every one and their dog can get in. Whats the point of leveling a toon if you can just skip to the end stuff? It made sense for WVW in my opinion but for PVE stuff that is not cool.
Third. I thought this was not supposed to be a gear grind? Now I find out to get the next level of stuff I have to grind for epics and then blow them on a random combine in the mystic forge with large amounts of crafting stuff just to possibly get the weapon but may never actualy get it? What happended to no linear progression? You guys had a great start with this game but now you are slipping and it wont take much to kill it unless you guys are careful. I urge you to really think about where this is going and consider the things that you said about the game when you started it.

First of all, when you write a complaint like this, you’d better provide some actual, productive feedback for it to have any kind of desirable effect. The place felt unfinished? Yeah, sure. How was it unfinished? They can’t make it more “as awesome as the rest of the world” unless you provide them with tips on how to actually improve it. Just pointing out that it’s crap doesn’t help one bit. That’s like calling a tailor and telling them to hook you up with a suit without providing any measurements.

Second, what part of a special one-time event did you not understand? This was an event that ANet wanted everyone to have a chance to experience, and locking the zone to a specific level range would’ve prevented a good share of the community from doing just that. What exactly in this annoys you? How does allowing lower level players to join in diminish your ability to enjoy the event? This is not a case of “skipping the whole content” as the event is long gone already and there is no actual “end stuff” happening on the island anymore. Think before drawing conclusions like that.

And third, I assume you are talking about Legendary weapons which, in fact, are not in any way superior to your current Exotic weapons (and in some cases, even inferior) and thus they are not part of any “linear progression”. They are simply additional skins to pursue for players that so wish; they’re not wanted for their stats.

I agree on this whole post. Bravo!

Everybody and there moms should not be allowed in 80 world events = less chances an end game will be endgame do to, more bodies placed on the RNG system = less chance for 80’s getting upgrades of level 80 gear and weapons. Meaning all 80’s should be competing with other 80’s, not 20’s, 30’s 40’s etc just because some lower level is in the 80 event, and got auto adjusted.

You seen attachments from player’s in these forums, and what else you see is mostly the up arrow and 80 next to players name showing they got adjusted for the 80 event. It is understandable in WvW, Structural Player vs Player and Player vs Enviroment, although can be a annoying at times when a level gets reduced down to whatever level the zone they are in, because level 80 griefers will grief.

Not enjoying the gear grind what so ever. If I want to grind for EVERYTHING there are many Free to Play MMO’s out there that I can download for nothing, and play them. What will help with the grind some, is increase drops from the loot table. Now I am not saying everybody gets rare’s and exotic’s with very little effort of work. WoW already go that covered.

But to me it seems like the majorty of said Vets, champs, and world boss’s have a huge increase of vendor trash vs Masterworks, Rare’s, and Exotic’s. The Fines should be dropped from level 50 mobs and down. No fines should ever be dropped from 55 and above, do to players by now, in the 55ish to 80 level brackets start to think about saving up for the mass number of mats and coin to reach Legendary status. Lets face it a Masterwork is worth more then a Fine off a vendor = more coin in the pocket.

The break down should look something like this + less vendor trash:

5-50 loot table from regular mobs, Whites and Fines. Some trash. More trash in the 1-18 level bracket off regular mobs. I think the Masterwork gear starts at 20 level. So more coin drops added to help the lowbies be able to buy gathering tools, repairs, and maybe even a possible upgrade for their gear. As their level progress’s, they should start to see more coin and gear and less trash. I am sure there is a coin cap based on level brackets, so don’t go crazy with dropping mass’s amount of coin, although it would be nice, it will be OP.

55-65 loot table, some Masterworks, a Rare or two, and less trash. By now most players have Masterworks on or Rares bought from the TP. No need to have to many Fines in this bracket. Most players will just vendor the Fines or rip them appart for mats.

68-75 loot table, some Masterworks, and maybe more Rares and an Exotic or two. Again some Fines to vendor or rip appart.

76-80 loot table Rares. and some Exotics. There is no excuse to even have a lot of Fines in this bracket from drops. More Masterworks over Fines to vendor or rip appart for mats. Almost every player by now are wearing Rares and a couple pieces of Exotic’s.

Most players encounter their first champ at level 10ish. I also do not think there is Masterwork gear at this low of a level. I am pretty sure Masterwork gear starts at 20ish. That champ should not have vendor trash to loot. Better yet ALL champs and vets should not have vendor trash to loot at all, an ALL champs and vets should drop something. So many times if a Champ or vet get downed, they either have NOTHING at all or vendor trash. Not even coin loot.

Right now its mostly Trash, Trash, and more Trash. Mixed in with a piece of gear or two, and some coin.

And besides the rant above. I feel the zone level caps should of had a World event of the level cap of each zones. So lets break it down in say 4 events. Instead of one big mass one.

1-20 World event
20-40 World event
40-60 World event
60-80 the world event we just had so 60 should had been the lowest level to enter the 80 event.

Sure it probaly would had been a lot of work, but level 80’s competing with lower levels for the top spot in the RNG? Of course the drops are not going to be out of this world. So many people competing all at once for that top spot in the RNG.
