Guild Wars 2

I have been very hesitant to ask for this, as the group of players who it would benefit is relatively small; however, if it wouldn’t take too much time, could we get an in-game item that prevents all experience gain?

In every game I play, and I do mean every, I eventually get bored with the story line and general game play. Yet there are games that I have continued to play for over 10 years. This is because the one thing I truly enjoy in a game is a challenge. However, ever since the release of Guild Wars 2, I’ve yet to find a single challenge that I would truly be proud of accomplishing.

One of my favorite challenges, from Guild Wars 1 and many of the Final Fantasy games is the Low Level Challenge (LLC). Trying to achieve specific goals while intentionally capping your character development can be very difficult, and just as rewarding. This is currently made impossible in Guild Wars 2 due to the fact that everything gives you experience. Earlier in the year I tried to make a level 2 character that had level 80 fractals unlocked, but since fractal levels have been reset and made account bound, even that challenge has been negated.

While I understand the percentage of players who would use the item would be relatively small, a simple trinket that prevents all experience would greatly improve my gaming experience with Guild Wars 2. It would open up a wide range of low level challenges, including but not limited to 100% exploration, story-line completion, and dungeon mastery.

I understand the creation of such an object may be difficult to program due to the vast amount of ways experience can be gained, and if my request is not reasonable, I would understand. However, this is very important to me, and I thought it was about time I asked.

Thank you for making an incredible game.

its simple…only open your trait line to the equivalent of the level gain you want….only use the gear and weps from that level.

there is no intrinsic stat gain from leveling as far as i know. it all comes from gear and weapons and stats. if you don’t use max level gear then they might as well not exist and wont effect your goals.

if its a personal goal then this way works perfectly for you. IF its to post and be like “LAWL look at me at arah at lvl 20” then idk o-o

From the wiki:

“Primary attributes grow with character level, starting with 24 in each at level 1. Each level up through level 9 grants 4 points to each attribute; levels 10–19 grant 6 points each; 20–29, 8 points; … 70–79, 18 points; 80, 20 points. "

:D u win this round, might as well do the naked challenge then since the majority of stats will still come from gear

Unluckily the health gain alone completely negates a low level challenge. My warrior with no armor/weapons/trinkets/traits/boosts still has over 19k health, and that’s not to mention the other stat bonuses. Sadly, there is no way to replicate a low level challenge at level 80, even if you go bare-fisted, butt-naked, untrained, and without a single shiny object on you.

As it has been a while since I initially posted this, I was wondering if ArenaNet has made any progress in developing such a trinket.

So basically you are looking to Twink in GW2 ?

A game not designed for it. worth a shot I guess

Why not demand that you can change your lvl at anytime like in final fantasy dissdia duodecim? I think this would be far more easier and flexible.

The ability to down-level further than the “Max Level”? That actually sounds pretty interesting. At least it could be used to replicate some of the challenges mentioned.
