Guild Wars 2

Some of us dont like dungeons, I wish I could enjoy them but they are too chaotic for my taste, but hey to each his own.

Releasing a new tier of gear 2 months after release is unnerving, with most of my slots being exotic I just wanted to relax and enjoy end-game but now you are telling me that my gear needs more work.. its too early for that, way too early…

Please make the new gear just a strong as exotic, but with extra damage INSIDE the dungeon… you know, as most of us were predicting right before you released that heart-breaking blog post..

Communicate MORE with your fans! All the Arenanet logos on the forums is just a manager closing the thread.. we need both of us to be more reciprocate, otherwise you just alienate your fans and your ideals. Please consider this a turning point in your philosophy from now on.

Keep it out of the game. Period.

PvP is safe, still its own gear, with skin-only progression.

New map might be good. I’m not crazy about z-axis stuff.

The difference in stats is like… 2 base stats, several % of the garbage MF stat and like, 3 stats on the additionals which are non customisable as they’re inbuilt

the ability to customise them is lost to the addition of the infusions to combat agony
How on earth is this a game breaker for Wv3?

there’s more advantage of having ONE extra non exotic geared true 80 than there is in having several ascended geared players. Because you clearly CANNOT be talking about SPVP because gear progression there is purely cosmetic, and are in fact talking about the hybrid PVP/PVE that is Wv3 mode.

It won’t make a difference dude, please realize this and not spam the forums

im pretty sure OP means WvWvW

The new gear should be able to be used in WvWvW but not in the PvP, I would be bored if after all the farm and things I have done to get the armor faster the only thing I could do with it is farm faster.

Until a server heavy on WvW decides to farm all the dungeons nonstop until everyone has that 8% boost.

And assuming there’s gear for every slot, we get up to the 42% area of bonus stats. Imagine a thief slamming you with a 40k BS.

A hypothetical full set of ascended gear with all of 50 more power and precision isn’t going to help in WvW.

Hinted 2 tiers of this stuff along with legendaries?

If so: full suit of T1, T2, or legendary may very well have more raw stats combined than full sigil/runed exo set? Stat budgets seems to indicate it will.

Depends on what sigs/runes you use in wv3, though, I guess.

This announcement means we very well might have to PvE and blow lots of gold to be top geared….for every char you play. That does not sound all that fun to me.

But I suppose we have to see stats when it goes live, because this is not going away.

Only gets worse from here, lol.

edit. i just had massive deja vu after re-reading this. T.5…T1…T2….T3….resil….wait…uh…oh god noo!

If this 50 power and precision after only 3 months is seen hitting wv3, what of the next tiers of the next dungeons… eventually it’ll catch up and your gear will need upgrades…

How about add gear that is hard to get in wvw (badges that only drop from enemies EVERY TIME you kill an enemy not jumping puzzles… other topic moving on..) and that gets upgraded whenever there’s major gear revamps in the future… pvpers shouldnt have to suffer even if its only by 50 pow/prec… the playing field for pve’rs and pvp’rs should be the same and progression should be achievable by both ways of play.

Just my 2 cents.

If there was an armor set that magically upscaled itself to the newest high stat, then everybody would just wear that armor and not even try get the new stuff lol…. I think people are overreacting about this. How ‘bout we judge this new addition once it’s actually in the game.
