What GW1 feature would you bring to GW2

I would like to see the enemies casting their spells/attacks in the interface. That bar under the enemy’s name showing the process. Would be easier to interrupt. And why do bosses in gw2 have unshakable/defiant? You could pretty much interrupt anyone in gw1 if you wanted to.

The reason they removed the skill bars underneath the damage bars was to give players the incentive to look out for animations more. Have their eyes on the target, and not on their health bar..

I kind of like it, it’s a good way to distinguish between good players and bad players. Although, what they should really do to make this system work is fix their freaking particle effects.. There is almost always a Guardian in my teams and they run a DPS blind spam build that involves spamming Virtue of Justice… But the downside of that is that your target is engulfed in blue flames almost 24/7 making spotting the animations kind of tough…

Exactly.

A good interrupter in GW1 didnt wait to see the activation bar and name of the skill appear over a target’s head. He was watching for tells (as simple as they were in GW1) and paying attention to the battlefield, knew his opponents rotation, etc.

In GW2 all of that knowledge and attention to detail means little if you cannot even see your target.

I miss the lvl 20 level cap; in my opinion it was just right, not so high that it discouraged casual players but still high enough that you couldn’t get to it in a day (unless you really wanted to :P) I dug the philosophy of letting players get to level cap early and then saving roughly 70% of the game for after you got to the level cap.

Customizable classes/dual-classing were pretty cool as well; I miss my warrior/assassin who used his “brass knuckle” skinned daggers and my necro/dervish who could punish foes from afar with death magic and curses or tear through them up close with his scythe.

I also really liked how Anet allowed players who were just interested in PvP to buy the PvP portion of the game at a reduced cost; the PvP scene in GW1 was so robust it really was a whole separate game on its own if you wanted it to be.
