Guild Wars 2

I find this the best MMO I’ve played and I’ve tried most of them – even Black Desert and some off ones.. but one thing (the only thing) that GW2 seems to lack is using desired spell effects that are really enjoyable for one weapon.

My favorite is the staff but it seems really out of wizard character and not fun to have to roll backward to put a good dot on something.
Would love it if we could move one ability from one weapon to another – provided it was a balanced move.
Black Desert wizards have the coolest spells I’ve seen. .but i could not stay there, since Guild Wars 2 trumps it on every other front.

Wish List: customized skills please!

Weapons have specific skills, and there’s no way to alter that loadout because there ISNT a way to balance it. Your customization will only come from what weapons you use, and what utility skills you use.

It was like that a few months before they released the game. That was how GW1 was designed. There is an old beta video of a staff elementalist with phoenix and meteor shower on his skill bar. It’s even the reason why the animations don’t match the weapons used (fireballs don’t come out of the staff, skills fx come out of the empty hand, etc).

They decided to lock the skills with weapons very late in the development.

Which is a good idea. Honestly if you could pick and choose then what is the point in having different weapons in the first place?

Guildwars lacks the precise archetypes either in skill or in game play. I have been doing the same mistake, searching for a true wizard, a good healer, real archer… etc. But although similar in concept, neither of the professions are close to its archetype. It is fun though.

Pros : It’s a very beautiful game, you can do what ever you want, fish,cook, make potion, train horses, combat. The combat is fun. The classes make sense. You can afk and train life skills(skills that contribute to economy aka smelting etc). Autopathing.

Cons: laggy latency, Open pvp (Once you get to lvl 45, people 50+ can openly just flag up, and kill you where you stand). RNG heavy. alot more grindy than gw2 is. World Bosses only reward higher level damage dealers. Melee classes get the short end of the stick in most cases of the game.

I havent played the game for atleast a month on account of the Open world pvp.

TL;DR This is a PVP mmorpg, If you don’t like to pvp I don’t advise picking this up.

The animations on any class are amazing. The action feels very fluid, and combat feels the most exciting of any MMO I’ve played. That being said it’s still kind of old school quest system and tons of them. You can’t get some quests without enough rep with a person – which is good and bad imo.
The trade system is like a mini game in itself and is very vague and hard to pickup without just diving in and figuring things out.
The real con for the game is the lack of instanced things – story or dungeon or anything. You run into an area filled with critters and they spawn like crazy. You never really defeat them and just have to run for your life out of the area to call it complete.
If you are interesting in Black Desert still, check with a buddy who has it because he might have a 1 week trial key he can hand out.

Otherwise you’ll have to stick to videos are perhaps waste $50.

There is completely a point. You could still allow customization of say one power for another and that would be it. Especially possible if you made a skill that required some points that might block on one thing to allow such a swap.

I realize it’s about balance – that’s obvious. But it would be nice to get some more Guild Wars 1 style customization. Or some more spell options added to compete with some of the amazing effects in other games. They don’t even have to be powerful, but might be more appealing than rolling backward and leaving a trail of flame, for example..
