Guild Wars 2

Hello fellow Guild wars players! Have you ever walked around, and seen a guy with some insane looking armor, or a crazy weapon, and wondered what it was? Well, with inspection you’d be able to do that. Other than that, Have you ever just wanted to mess around with your friend, and practice pvp with him? I feel as though dueling would be a great way to satisfy boredom.
I’m sure these have been mention previously, but I’d just like to point out that I’m one of the guys that would like to see this stuff in the future

Hello fellow Guild Wars players! Have you ever roamed around these forums and noticed that little box near the top of the page? The one that reads “Search this forum…”?

I’m sure this functionality has been mentioned previously, but I’d just like to point out that I’m one of the guys that would like to see this functionality used a lot more in the future.

Wow, you’re kinda mean.

People can change the skins of their weapons, so inspect doesn’t do anything for that. Especially since a lot of people are doing it.

Inspect has, on the other hand, a lot of negative sides. Mostly in the form of elitists selecting people for their dungeons based on gear. Which can result in being excluded if you don’t have Exotics. Or being excluded because some of your gear is MF based. Heck, you could be excluded because of your choice of weaponry.

And really, it doesn’t take too long to whisper a dude going “I saw your weapon/armor and thought it was cool, what skin is that?”

I oppose this suggestion. No inspection of other players, ever.

If someone wants to know where a skin comes from, send the person a whisper and ask them.

I feel it’d be much easier to just inspect, than going through the trouble of messaging them, and from what I’ve noticed, if you ask, people don’t answer. If you want to know their entire set-up people are not going to want tell every single bit of what they’re doing.

No, I just read the forum rules. If a thread exists that covers something you wish to suggest, you’re supposed to post in there instead and multiple threads already exist for duelling and /inspect. It makes it easier to keep the discussion in one place and also makes it easier for the devs to read.

I think we’ve been through this many times already. No. Simply ask the person what armor he’s wearing if you want to know. Also dueling is a bad idea as people with huge egos will just ask for 1v1 to settle personal vendettas.

That’s an aspect I never thought of! But now that you mention it, I can totally see people insisting on getting ranks or demoting certain people based on outcomes of 1v1s. Stuff like “Well he sucks at PvP, so why is he leading our squad?”

Believe it or not, people have difficulty with the notion that knowledge and skill are two different things.

I was just thinking of it being a fun past time, just as in every other game out there..

It can be fun if you take it the right way.

But there will also always be those who take it the wrong way. Including:

• Wanting ranks in guilds due to dueling success
• Wanting demotions in guilds due to dueling results
• Discounting advice based on the person’s dueling results

I can totally see duels being a fun thing to do in guilds. Something like a Weekly or Monthly guild duel tournament or the like.

I feel as though you’re wayyyy over thinking this. I’m just talking about two friends wanna mess around, and practice skills on eachother.
