Guild Wars 2

ArenaNet, you dont know how much gold players can earn from farming champions. It’s like Pen-Shelt all over again. Is it intentional ?

What was all localized in Orr over Plinx/Shelter farm rotation now has been expanded all over Tyria. I think this is great.

All we need now is open world consensual dueling, GvG, & I will never leave open world PvE.

Welp, if/when they nerf them I hope they just reduce the amount of silver you get from a box, and make it so non event champs scale up in difficulty when large zergs are attacking them.

Rather than putting all champs on large spawn timers.

Its quite a good thing, before this happened, there was really next to no point in killing most champions unless you needed the 60 kills for a monthly.

My only concern at the moment is the effect of this on how people fight in a group event. Now everyone just goes straight for the champions whenever they spawn and ignore everything else. Luckily, at the moment there really isn’t many group events that actually require strategy or co-ordination, but if hey ever did something like having 2 dozen Risen trebs firing at you from far away whilst 2 champions spawn, I can see every group getting wiped.

Well its the same as the world bosses..

Anet adds good rewards to one part of the game and only one part of the game, guess what everyone draws to them.
If there were multiple or many ways to get these rewards it wouldn’t get nailed anywhere near as badly.. and the content would be just spread out better..

Bet we see nerfs sometime soon…

lol every time a farm pops up the whiteknights…i mean noobs appear…just play the game and stop complaining. If anything you should be farming too if it’s so broken.

Oh im not complaining, i also farmed champs and i earned a decent amount of gold with it. The thing is that farming champs is so profitable right now that part of me doesnt want to do anything else like running dungeons with friends or going WvW with guild.

If you didn’t know, Anet employees are paid to keep this game running. They’re well aware of the activity in high level maps.

How do they keep the game running ? Improving story and content aspect of the game or the farming aspect of the game ?

If more players want to farm than to play through the story, guess what’s the proper answer to your question?

Well it is obvious they do not improve content… Look at past year and all of the carnival events they added with no depth and you have your answer. Now I just need Vayne and other white knights who were talking how anet doesn’t want “us” to farm and just to play the game to explain that to you

Well, its not that they don’t try. 4 teams all working on separate projects at once and a 2-weekly release schedule is really quite ambitious. The stuff that came out aren’t exactly of low quality either.

Its just that for the majority of it, its kind of effort spent doing the wrong things.

I wonder how many of these guys that make posts complaining about the champs are actually standing around in LA with their thumbs up their butts? All the while thousands upon thousands of players are actually in game enjoying themselves with the new rewards that were long overdue.

Thank the Six that Anet finally saw the error of their ways and added another way for players to be rewarded while playing the way they want to play.
