Guild Wars 2

Ok this is basically going to be a huge wall of text with random suggestions in a random order :P

Also, i know gw2 has many bugs still that need fixing and i understand that its kinda early to post all this kind of suggestions, but i agree on it that the bugs should be fixed first.

Role playing:
-More dances! I love how the dances we have now are based on real life dances, and even more of then would be awesome!
-Hobbies (as suggested in many other threads)
-Some kind of festival areas. Imagine a halloween festival kinda thing going on constantly in somewhere, this place would include all of the hobbies and other fun entertainment.

Combat/dungeons/events:
-Make the mobs have own bleed pool for every player, its VERY frustrating to be doing something in orr and come up to a event just to notice you cant do pretty much any damage becouse you are on your condition build. (mainly pointing this out as a problem of necros and rangers)

-Events should be soloable if there is nobody else around, more and more people are getting to level 80 and less and less people do the events on lower levels :/ I know many events that do scale down if you are alone, but all of the bossfights/random bosses are always either 1shotting you or it would take half a hour to solo it. Also its so annoying that the leveling is so relied on events, but wth, i cant level if nobody is helping on events?

-better dungeon design….I havent done all of the dungeons, but in CoF, the point where we have to defend tha asura putting the bomb in, with good group it aint too big deathrace…but if you are doing it with 1st timers, its just plain kitten Who in the name of god wants to do a dungeon where you have to suicide to mobs just to keep the main NPC alive?? (other than that i do like the dungeon strategies and techniques made into them^^)

-Same base stats for all classes, im not sure would this unbalance everything, but i just dont understand why my necro has better base vitality than guardian?

Overall gameplay:
-Cheaper waypoint costs.
-Make mobs drop SOMETHING every time you kill it, even a 3 copper trophy…Its been annoying me since i started that sometimes i kill 5 enemies and none of them drop anything -.-
-PLEASE GIVE US DYEING OPTIONG WHEN PREVIEWING

Random:
-Balance the race heights….I understand its meant that norn are longer but my god not twice as long as the shortest human
-Some kind of percentage calculations under stats, for an example the toughness/defence, it’d be nice to see how much % defence i get, or how high my bleed dmg is and so on.
-A option to take a picture with no hud even with the hug on, its annoying to do the combination of keys, take picture, do the combination again, and keep moving, a option for that would be VERY helpful
-A panorama picture mode….Just an idea :P

And thats it….(for now BHWHAHAHHAH)

You can remove the hud by pressing ctrl + shift + H and then typing /sleep so your character lies down. After that it only takes some positioning to get a screenshot without anyone on it.

For the events, I’d say… Join a guild. Someone is bound to be happy to help you out with an event. If not, then maybe you should consider if that guild is the right one for you.

I also agree with the heights. I despise charr and others who are extremely huge…

Allright.

1. Yes, more dances could be fun, but then they probably would make these dances cost gems. (IRL Money)

2. What do you mean with hobbies and how would you suggest it to work etc..?

3. There is a halloween festival coming. I havn’t read about it yet so im not sure whats coming up.

4. Yes and no. If you think of realism, how could someone possibly bleed that much if he’s really small. But yes, as you say, a condition build might be pointless.

5. Most events are soloable, but the group events. But you can just skip these.

6. No comment

7. Well, a vampire have more life than a guy with heavy armor. Just a thought ^^. But maybe this is something they could change. I hate that my theif have 15k hp and a go against a necro with about 30 k.

Still, those with less hp maybe deals more damage and viceversa?

8. Whats wrong with the waypoints cost? You want it to be free. If so, then no.

9. Why? If you kill someone, how can you be sure that he carries something?? Not all mobs have pockets.

10. Fine.

11. LOL. Well the norns are huge and the humans are small. The shortest humans are almost dwarves and the tallest norns are almost gigants. If you dont want to be a huge norn, then just change your size?

12. YES! I want this, really. I really do. This have annoyed me soooo much.

13. Seriously, how can you get annoyed of this?

14. kitten.

Yay, done!

A lot of events are soloable already. Most of the ones you couldn’t handle solo have [Group Event] attached to their names. And even then, some are soloable.

The key to a successful Dungeon run is communication. If you have first timers with you, explain to them what they have to do in a clear manner. I’ve been glad to get to learn from people who’ve been there before, and I’ve been happy to explain the ropes to first timers and it benefitted everyone.

-Same base stats for all classes, im not sure would this unbalance everything, but i just dont understand why my necro has better base vitality than guardian?

Fully agreed. I’d love for my Guardian to be immortal. More seriously, it’s basically a game design limitation. Guardians can be specced for insane uptimes of Regeneration and Protection, and to heal themselves every time they sneeze. While it feels stupid that they should have Thief level HP when they’re a pretty meaty class, it’s fine in gameplay.

-Balance the race heights….I understand its meant that norn are longer but my god not twice as long as the shortest human

While we Norn are certainly longer than puny humans, we are also far far taller. Norn are supposed to be gigantic. Charr are actually only slightly smaller, but they have a bit of a stooped posture. Asura are supposed to be short. Sylvari and Humans are average. What’s wrong with their being actual size differences differentiating the various races?

Got no opinion or input on the rest.

2.theres bigger threads with more info, im too lazy >_<

7.they could definately balance it a little, but im also just still used to the tank (guardian) with lots’o’hp >> Dont hate me for that ><

8.This is linked to 9.

9.Mainly becouse of the wp costs, considering the events dont give THAT much money, and with my luck i dont even get rare drops ever. They also got clothes :P I bet i could sell that little scrap on him for 2copper :P (also this is just my opinion and my exprience)

11.Was mainly pointing at the difference of the heights within the same race (sorry i didnt point it out lol) Becouse i’v seen some highest and shortest norn(and other races) next to each other, it looks like its a 14 y old standing next to a adult >_< (again just my opinion, i got a weird mind when it comes to this kind of little things :P)

13. Well wouldnt it be simplier to just have a button that takes a pic without the hud?
(also i didnt last time notice i can just change the combination to be shorter :P sorry)

A lot of events are soloable already. Most of the ones you couldn’t handle solo have [Group Event] attached to their names. And even then, some are soloable.

1. Well for me ’’most’’ of them are definately not soloable, every 2nd event i find is one with that champion outlaw kitten mage kickin’ my kitten also it seems the escort events are being bugged again so considering IF i leave those out of the event list, most of them are definately the ones with [Group Event] On them then.(I havent paid attention on checking if they do have that and to be honest, i tought all of them had that :P)

To keep a consistent level of difficulty along with increased participation, an event will scale dynamically based on the number of active participants. Not all events require combat to complete

My english aint too good so i might just understand that wrong but doesnt that mean that they should scale for 1 perso too? Dont wanna start an argument, just confused by that now.

I know that, my point was that some of the content seems like its made when the devs have been high(no offense lol) Becouse i’v done that part of CoF 10 times, and with good groups too, and still its a certain death atleast once, or 2 or 3 times :P
I respect the devs vision of what they have made, its just very weird in my opinion.

@9. Get more magical drop rate.

Disagree On:

Bleed Pool – This one would be a difficult one to balance since the bleeds would cause insane amounts of damage. Maybe diminishing returns per stack of bleed would balance it out, but then you’d be back with the same issue of not causing much damage.

Events Scaling – I feel this would just be a band-aid to the bigger issue of people just farming one place. Rather than trying to adjust these, perhaps a solution to get higher levels back in the rest of the world would be a better use of time?

As for everything else, I agree with
