Guild Wars 2

Cursed Shore rewards are absolutely imbalanced. They need to be nerfed as soon as possible. Ever 3-4 events you get a charged lodestone or a giants eye. How is that fair? That’s 3 gold minimum every 10 minutes~

Something has to be done about this, FAST.

Nope.

And it’s only temporary.

What do you mean only temporary?

They rotate out weekly.

The rewards change weekly; this is week 8.

Good luck.

Anyone know where the down vote button is?

OP is the reason why we can’t have nice things.

Hahahaha, Endless Soul!

Best post of the week. What Inculpatus cedo said..

No, the reason we can’t have nice things is Anet listens to these thoughtless rants.

Wtf really? And i was wondering why so few were raiding for no rewards…..

Good luck.

Hmm … wiki claims reset is on Monday but for me and a friend it seems to be somewhere around Thursday(EST).

Clearly, I need to be spending time in Cursed Shore this week.

Thanks for the tip.

OP is the reason why we have all the nice things in gem store

Because it had nothing with the raid being generally not appealing to a majority of players (and this by design, by the way).

If less than a week is fast enough, then all is right with the world.

And nerf everything else you haven’t already touched. (@Anet) Mass nerfs for everything and everyone.

It’s already nerfed. I spent a whole 30 minutes there and I was slapped with DR. Sure I got the bonus items but ended up with no xp so I left after the first Giant’s Eye.

the raid not appealing to the majority of players? in what way? you mean, the majority of players wanted to faceroll through raids the way they do with the rest of the game?

well, i guess i cannot blame them. It’s all arenanet’s fault: train a lot of people to watch tv, chat, download music, twit while playing, and they expect to do that all the time.

Let the raiders have their raids, and let everyone else enjoy the content they enjoy.
On topic, I think it’s great that there’s now another way to acquire uber-rare items like Giant Eyes. Rotating the choice items will keep core maps alive with players doing events.

I’m guessing the OP was stockpiling Giant Eyes or something.

That’d be my guess.

Yeah, raiding gets you what? An anemic 6 gold per week. lol

This “gold” that you imagine is coming out of thin air is not. It is in fact coming from other players willing to pay that price for the rarity of that particular item. There is no issue here. ArenaNet mentioned the map reward system long before HoT released and said that the ‘ultra rare’ materials were going to become much easier to obtain thanks to that system. This is 100% intended for A.Net to help player obtain materials easier without super-grinding them. If you’re one of those market manipulators who was stockpiling and hiking the prices, and that is why you’re upset because the price dive: tough luck.

Edarkness.7543:

How so? The original post doesn’t make an actual argument.

Edarkness.7543:

Why?

Edarkness.7543:

No, it’s 0 gold until you sell the item(s) on the TP. Lots and lots of people have been asking that these items be easier to obtain and less RNG dependent and ANet obliged. That is indeed “fair”.

Edarkness.7543:

Again, why? The map reward system is working as intended: increasing the availability of a high-demand/low-supply item and benefiting those who have adjusted to the HoT-reward system and are willing to move around their farming locations.

wait what???? brb, grabbing my loot stick

Yeah, my money’s on this one, too.

Has to be, yeah… seeing as cash gain from mats would quickly nerf itself.

…Why does something need to be done about this FAST? Are you worried these items may become less expensive, thus degrading your game experience somehow?

alright ! bye bye maguuma, i’m camping CS this week……
