Thanks for the cookies I hadn’t seen this thread before they arrived so it was quite a surprise. We weren’t sick, we were just a little busy working on fixing culling
Also, it’s pretty awesome that there were butterfly cookies. How did you know that my current main is a Mesmer?
That’s good news, hopefully well see some changes / adjustments to Mesmers.
We have a few hundred people working here now and most of them play the game regularly. Every class is somebody’s main
Also, please don’t infer Mesmer changes from the fact that it’s my current main. I’m just a programmer – design stuff like that is somebody else’s responsibility.
I think I learned something today. Instead of kittening and moaning and being kitten heads, we should just give one another cookies. The world is a much friendlier place when that happens.

I bet that the ones maining Warriors and Thieves aren’t very happy atm :P
Eh. I’m ok with the idea that the Glicko Ghetto (such a funny term) is being looked into. Thanks loads.
Credit for “Glicko Ghetto” goes to my boyfriend, who came up with the term during the GW2 Seattle M&G. I loved it so much that I totally stole it and started using it in all the T8 threads. We’re both thrilled to see the term actually caught on here on the forums.

How many cookies will it take to get all our wishes fulfilled, and do we need to spread the cookies to all the “suits”?

That sounds a bit like delegating responsibility, depending on who you talk to they either hear “that’s a programming problem, not my job” or “that’s a design problem, not my job”. In the end, players don’t really care whose job it is, all they see is that there are many bugs that have not been fixed since release. If nobody’s willing to or capable of fixing them, at least change the ingame descriptions to reflect the current state.
/e: that wasn’t meant to sound rude, I like you and you’re doing a great job from what we see, I just caught a flu so I may be a bit cranky

Robert isn’t a designer either, but he still sits in as a class commentator for Ranger in balance discussions.
Just like to thank you Habib, its great that you guys are looking into the problem, but its nicer getting conformation from you. I feel loved again! Thanks anet
How about resetting tier 7 and 8 to the lvl of the lowest server in tier 6? let em fight it out and resettle into new spots. I get the feeling sorrows furnace would not be in tier 8 when it worked it’s way out.

I don’t think FC and ET would be there either

Well, Robert got more say on this.
“I’d really like to make a more challenging new dungeon with high agony values but I am afraid, my current idea gets defeated by the lack of agony resistance on pets, completely unbalancing the ranger class. I can not make a dungeon which is entirely unplayable for a whole class. So could you please do something about agony resistance on pets? I really like my current approach.”
→ Pet ar gets fixed.
For a dungeon designer, bringing in balance suggestions is pretty easy, as you can see
The only crime, turrets committed, is being good against the celestial meta.
The mob has spoken and the turrets shall be burnt at the stake.
For me the current system relies too much on servers winning and losing consistently to lose or gather sufficient points to go up or down which isn’t always the case many match ups become a stalemate as servers point income’s flux this makes some tiers stagnate hampering other servers in different tiers from progressing.
I see one of the flaws of the current system is that a server despite losing frequently can stay in a tier for a long time primarily riding on it’s past success and accumulated score to keep a point gap between 1st place in the tier below rather than it’s current performance.
A reset would only be a short term fix eventually the problem would appear again without an additional means to place a server in a tier other than points alone, possibly rewarding bonus points depending on a servers placement ie 1st 2nd 3rd at the end of the week could help boost the point differences between those stomping in 1st in the tier below whilst the 3rd position in the above tier hangs on life support indefinitely.
