Guild Wars 2

Hello,

First i’d like to say i’m not an experienced MMO player, ye iv’e played a few but i’m pretty new to this whole thing. (usually it didn’t last too long, except one maybe)

I’m gonna concentrate on one thing that i think could be changed to help and improve the gameplay experience and i would like to see what people think about it.

The main thing for me is Dungeon gear.

-I think this should turn into Account Bound (instead of soul/char bound) and even maybe add a vault like in Pvp.

-The reason i’m saying that is because i found myself the last couple of weeks in the game doing nothing except
grinding dungeons. I really think the level of effort to get the sets is too high (especially if you play more than 1 character)
and it causes people not to enjoy the game for all it has to offer.

-For example i want to play all 8 classes, i want to experience the game from all the different classes and races, and grinding a dungeon
55 times for 1 set for each char seems insane specially if you want a few different looks, and don’t forget about weapons as well.

Where i’m heading is in my opinion grinding each dungeon 23 times 3 times (Light , Medium , Heavy)
and about 7 times each for each weapon and don’t forget leveling a character to 80 is enough to earn the right to
use it and that way people can actually enjoy the game for all the different things it has to offer and won’t stick to one “main”.

I do understand that some grinding is necessary for a game to survive and keep a goal to reach.. but at the moment i feel this is an impossible one for a player like me who wants to play more than one character.
and it costs in wvw and pvp gameplay… you just don’t get to do all the game has to offer when you just grind dungeons all day long for gears.

Well i would like to hear some thoughts, do people think like me?

And to say i’m usually not the guy to write on the forum what i think and so forth.
I just really found a game i really enjoy and love finally and want to be able to enjoy it
in the long run and experience all it has to offer.

Thanks,

TheSaint.

I like the idea!

I like the idea, I think it’s a good one. It has the potential to alleviate the grind of dungeon gear. For those who like the current setup, there’s nothing stopping them from continuing to dedicate that one character to the grind of earning that gear!

Nope, I don’t agree. No one is making you run a dungeon a ton times to get dungeon gear on every one of your characters. You’re deciding to do that. There are still other options available and the stats are the same. I decided not to run dungeons at all, because I don’t enjoy them. As a result, I won’t get the dungeon gear or the legendaries, and I’m fine with that.

thanks for the comment. ye i get what you mean but that’s my point kinda that you don’t wanna give up all the classes this game has to offer just to be able to grind insanely you way for gear on one single character.
and i edited the post btw added 1 thing i forgot

There is still a big difference between choosing not to, or simply seeing the massive grind as just bit too much. Hell, if i could grind my dungeon gear on 1 character and level all others to 80 i would.

He wants to, but sees the grind as bit too extreme.

You choose not to, that fine.

Ok, it would have to apply to all gear, not just dungeon gear then. Any weapon or armor skin unlocked on any character, would be available for use by all other characters.

I’m not supporting the idea, but it wouldn’t make sense for a person to be able to use dungeon gear on multiple characters, while a person with rare crafted gear could not.

have to agree with Kasei here.

Kasei i can see why you think it wouldn’t make sense, well you already gave up on getting that… [i don’t agree with it tho…], but ye… at least if not make it account wide… there’s always the option to lower the prices of the items…. or actually even better coz then people who saved tokens don’t gain more than people who used theirs, just raise the amount you get from dungeons… because at the moment its just impossible…

anyway i’m not saying it should free or easy… i’m just saying it’s supposed to be humanly possible for people like me who want to experience the game from more than 1 class… [let alone all of them] to get the sets they like… either if its raising the tokens you get per run or making it account bound or even making it 10 times harder[by the amount of tokens you get per run] and make it account bound…

i think it’s great idea

I really like the idea would really help to motivate people to play more than 1 character but won’t harm the ones that don’t..

Nice idea

hope they do it already have 3 characters u_u
