Guild Wars 2

When you’re out in the open wold, or wherever, how can I see the stats of the other players running around. I can click on them and see what their down-rated level is and whichever buffs they’ve got on them, but I can’t see their achievement points and actual character level.

Is there a way to see this? If not, that seems like a pretty massive hole. It would be nice to see if the guy who just invited me to a party is of similar level and experience before accepting.

So far there is not a way to do that and many people are glad because they don’t want elitist idiots denying them a dungeon group based on preconceptions.

The Main Reason I believe you CANNOT check other people’s stats is because you really don’t need to…

(For Example)

Player (A) and Player (B) are both playing Warrior Classes, However, they both have different playstyles. This means they will both be looking for different (Traits), which as a result, they will both have different NEEDS when looking for Armor/Stats.

If Player (A) has Traits that give him tons of Power+Condition dmg, then why does he need more Armor/stats for what he already doesn’t lack?

Maybe Player (A) lacks Vitality and Toughness since he didnt choose (Traits) that give him those stat-bonuses. Which in that case, Player (A) who is playing warrior is most likely going after those stats for his armor.

Meanwhile.
Player (B) Lacks Power+Condition dmg, But has traits that covers him for Vitaility & Toughness. This means Player (B) will be more interested going after Power+Condition dmg Armor/stats to help him during combat.

So in theory:
Player (A) or Player (B) checking each other’s stats WONT help them in any way or form since both players have different NEEDS based on the traits and playstyle they have.
