Guild Wars 2

Hello,
There once was a post by a dev, who said they are gonna include more scoreboard stats, like damage done, damage taken, healing done and so on.
Is this still the case?

The fact that basic stats are ‘low on the list of priorities’ is a good indication of how bottlenecked the high priorities have become.

Relatively speaking, new game modes, maps and some desperately needed balance are higher priorities, yes. But I wouldn’t call stats a ‘low priority’. Statistics are the sole metrics of individual merit in PvP gameplay.

I’ve yet to see a scoring tabulation that properly awards me a percentage of the crit damage done by others when I am the one maintaining party-wide perma Fury.

While I have used trackers/parsers to tune up damage rotations and improve my play – competing primarily against myself in controlled environments, as a way of measuring group contribution they tend to be worse than barbaric.

It’s still on the table for the future, but it lives low on the list of priorities so it won’t be making it in anytime soon.

Basically means, not gonna happen.

I would love to know what the priority lists consists of. I could be wrong, but I would be willing to bet that the priority lists the devs have is inconsistent with what the players want. (this is just a guess based on 95% of all patches ever released)

This was a massive design oversight. Should of been in at launch basically like every other game pretty much ever. Swtor, wildstar and other mmos have this as standard. Can’t blame the team now though. It is rightly a low priority but it would of been really cool to have this in when the game was made which makes it whoever originally designed the game at fault. Although they also designed lots of good aspects to the game. Nothing is perfect but this was a significant oversight.

• stuff
• pvp stuff
