Guild Wars 2

Titles says it all. please let us have a cactus node for our home instance.

Oh my goodness, I would love this!

It would be nice if you could get a blooming passiflora, a cacti, a block of zhaitaffy to gather there.

Oh, oh, oh! And a little personal flurry that usually drops 2-5 tiny snowflakes when used but has a chance to drop 1-2 of higher tiers.

yes this would be good, but we still never got a toxic node which would have been nice.

I would be absolutely ecstatic if I got a little garden in my home instance where I could get passiflora, cactus parts and toxic spores!!

I love the garden idea! that would be useful, but also decorative.

Eventually I would like ways to customize the home instance more. Maybe there could be crafting recipes for furnitures, carpets, etc.

First you would need a house …

They only give us home instance crafting nodes for things that can’t be crafted anywhere else. The Cactus plants aren’t going anywhere since Dry Top is a permanent map, so we won’t get them in the home instance.

I’d prefer for them to actually give us a house first…by giving us something like the Hall of Monuments that is for the GW2 players. Maybe make it a special instance in the Mists that we can customize the looks of, actual location (plains, mountains, beach, etc) of the place, etc.

A house would be awesome… Did anyone here ever play a cute little mom called Glitch? the way they handled player homes was great. I’ll look for a good explanation (or write one).

Why? we already have a home.

For most of the races just randomly redecorating the home instances wouldn’t make any sense. For norn, sylvari, asura and charr the home instance is more of a communal area. It doesn’t really belong to your character. For a human if they are a noble one of those house is theoretically yours but I don’t think it was ever specified which.

Home Instance: The place you go to mine

there is a node for sale for copper, silver and gold ore……

Why? Does anyone truly enjoy remembering to log into their home instance simply to harvest a few things? Does that offer anything other than the sense of completing a daily chore?

When they said they wanted to add value to home instances, I thought they meant add some kind of gameplay, NPC interactions, house building and customisation etc. Generically adding random gathering nodes just piles up more things on the daily grind.

First a house, then a garden

I love the garden Idea!

After they released first three nodes for sale in gem store, i hoped the rest would soon follow and we would eventually end up with one of each node to harvest in our home instance. Sadly they released nothing since then, seems like something is stoping them

Hope so too, it will be very useful

You could put your model of the bazaar in your home.

Absolutely. THat or they need to start dumping cactus nodes across all other maps.

Good luck getting customizable homes. We don’t even have guild halls yet.

I don’t know about being happy but I was thinking what difference would it make to have 1 more Nopale per day?

Coming to a gem store near you!

You get a quartz node for your home, but in Dry Top there are areas where there are quartz nodes you can mine as well.

That is probably because Ambrite sheets require quartz.

I think she might have been referring to the person who said that there were only nodes for things you couldn’t get elsewhere (disregarding the purchasable Copper/Silver/Gold).

Sorry. I was sloppy. I should have quoted the post I replied to.

^ Yeah, we probably won’t get a Cactus node for that reason, as much as I WOULD like a little garden in my Home Instance with Passiflora, Cacti and Toxic Spores.

I also want to see a Gift of Ambrite mining node. That stuff is hard to come by. :/

Azurite nodes please.

A cactus node in the home instance wouldn’t serve much purpose considering Dry Top is a permanent zone and thus cactus nodes will always be available.

It wouldn’t be much use anyway considering plants are 1-per-harvest (typically anyway, you occasionally get 2 or 3 but usually only 1). One single piece of cactus a day isn’t going to do anything for you, the only way you’re going to get decent amounts is to go to Dry Top and harvest multiple plants.

With multiple characters. Now where are all those people who were crying about the permanent rich mining node changes ….
