Guild Wars 2

It’s impossible to do events for the sole purpose of loot. Even with DR, one should be entitled to spending their time to acquire the miniscule amount of loot and handful of rares over an hour or however long it takes.

2-3 weeks ago tagging enemies was a chore, but it wasn’t horrible. Now there’s upwards of 20-30 people doing each event and it just looks like a ridiculous zerg.

Why not just increase the health of the enemies depending on how many are in the area, so as everybody can get a piece of the cake if they invest the time?

As melee I’m constantly behind the rangers and casters and all of that AOE.

Equip a ranged weapon. Spam AOEs. Even Guardians can do that via Staff, and everyone else has solid ranged options anyway.

Sadly my staff’s AOE does nothing to trigger loot.

I notice that if there’s 5-10 people doing events that I can acquire loot by tagging enemies with 2-3 hits. However if there’s upwards of 20+ people tagging enemies even 3-4 times does nothing and all I get are porous bones and the scattered blue.

I don’t know how the mechanic works with more people there or if there’s some sort of delay, or requirement of hitting the enemies first and last, but I notice a massively significant reduction in my ability to get items, even with all the AOE in the world.

Sadly, I am having a similar issue. We have been over ridden with bots in the Cursed Shore and I have been reporting them for 3 days and I am still seeing the ones that I first reported. Seems to me they are going to loose their core player base if they don’t get on this asap. I guess that’s why I’m seeing more references to this game being called “Bot Wars”. I hate to say it, I like this game but if this bot overrun continues, I’ll be leaving.

I am trying to address some of this by getting a leash on the Bots that are constantly farming Orr

This topic is where I am trying to discuss the benifits of some Anti-Botting measures being introduced.
