Guild Wars 2

I just logged in to my Ele, who is also level 20, and noticed this. Anyone know what level we do get earth attunement now? And why in the world would they do this, do they think new players are idiots?

I know there are a ton of people on here going crazy. However, I know tons of people who left the game due to not having anything to do after getting level 80, 100% map completion, and doing all the explorables. Not to mention they did this on a couple characters. Before this announcement all you heard were people crying for end game. Not just on these forums but on any MMO forum you happen to read.

I honestly do not believe Anet would do this, if they didnt have ample people calling for it. A lot of people seem like they are going nuts because they are afraid of where this may lead. How about we just sit back and see what happens. These infusion things may only be for this dungeon, if its not your cup of tea, then why worry about it – just dont do that dungeon. Just like I choose to not go after a Legendary, or do WvW. Point is, if its an aspect of the game you dont want to do, then dont do it.

I am not sure why people are going all doom and gloom about this. The Ascended gear is really no better than the current exotics, it doesnt have normal upgrade slots because of the infusion slots. So they basically just put the normal stat upgrades you would get from upgrade slots into the base stats. From the screenshot they took, we are talking about a 5 stat difference on each stat. Yes its a slight gear upgrade, but Anet really cant win to lose lately. You have all these people that want something to do because there is no “end game” ( and please dont say there arent people saying it, because these forums have been flooded with those types of threads since the first month the game came out ) and now that they are adding an end game of sorts you have all these people stating they are leaving because they are adding it. MMO players are so finicky.

I, for one, am excited about this patch. Kudos Anet, keep the content rolling in!

I just want to let everyone in the path of Hurricane Sandy know that Im thinking of you and praying you are all safe and snug! Im in the area about 45 mins south of where its going to make landfall and its already starting to look bad and they say its not going to make landfall till around noon. Just a bit scarey! Have your flashlights and candles ready, its going to be a kitten of a storm!

Not even close to US prime time, lol.
