Guild Wars 2

I am a student currently in Korea and I was hoping there was a way I could set the game to Korean language. I want to use the game to help myself study as I am intermediate level and can understand most Korean anyway. Anyone have ideas or suggestions?

They have already started doing this with some events, but I agree completely with the OP. This is a fantastic idea and would make the events infinitely more lively and “dynamic” as they are meant to be.

Another transplant from Blackgate to Tarnished Coast, I’m glad you made it out.

I’m also from Tarnished Coast, and I have to say that I adore our community. We are the unofficial roleplaying server, which is why I ended up there. In my many years of playing games online, the RP servers have generally had the best communities. TC has easily the best community I have found in any MMO to date. I moved from Blackgate after getting tired of all the negativity in the channels. The elitists, the whiners, the trolls, the people that literally just hadn’t figured out how to play and were whining because the game is broken for them…

If you don’t mind people RPing, and you hate your server, I would highly suggest you try Tarnished Coast. We would love to have even more people, and we do decent in WvW if that is your thing. =)

Somebody is insecure and unaware of all the reasons as to why mesmers have butterflies. OP’s opinion is either entirely uninformed (or they just don’t care because butterflies make them angry), they are a troll, or they are simply the most nitpicky person on earth. The animations are set, so people should maybe figure this out before they get far into a character, only to take issue to the purple butterflies that have always been a part of the mesmer. MMOs don’t just up and allow editing of animations, and they never have.

I support this, it’s a great idea. There would be a lot of work involved, but I do think it would be a good idea.

So many people don’t understand the changes it’s unreal. I’m still making plenty of money from runs and getting okay XP, but I’m also not speed running story modes or single paths. Dungeons weren’t the best way to make money anyway. Thin the herd a little more. =)

I agree with Caliber on this one. You can’t play this game like past MMOs where you just stand around and face bosses away from the party and tank and spank. Your character needs to be built intelligently, striking a balance between survivability, DPS, and support/control. I can’t count how many frustrated players I have grouped with in Ascalonian Catacombs that flip out on the final fight or the lowers because they keep getting killed. Survivability is more important than DPS, if you have to do crap DPS to survive and help your allies, that is what you do.

My character is built mostly on defense as a warrior, because I enjoy playing a defensive fighter that is a pain to kill. I have just enough points in the precision line to get my bonus for unused signets, yet in a dungeon I use banners only. I lose a lot of my DPS, but my longbow gives me utility to blind, ignite, immobilize and give my allies the ability to ignite enemies. Being at range keeps me slightly out of harms way and I watch closely for attacks aimed at me and on the ground around me. I’m hardly a tank, even when using my shield and sword. I can take hits better than most, especially pure DPS characters, but I will still go down if I’m not paying attention.

People just aren’t used to how active the playstyle is yet, give it time and it’s nowhere near as hard as people make it out to be. Pay attention, scrap the glass cannon spec if you don’t want a repair bill, and don’t be selfish with the skills you use. You should also pick when you should revive a player and when not to, though noble, it isn’t useful if you die trying to help your friend up.

The way I balanced myself out on my warrior was like this:

Ten points into precision line for increased crit and so on, followed by 20 in the defensive line, and I forget where I put the rest. My gear is largely power and precision to offset my largely defensive build. My DPS is stable, but I would say at a medium, but my survivability is fantastic if I’m paying attention and my utility with my weapon choice is proving to be useful time and time again. If you want to be good in this game, throw out what you know from WoW, don’t stand in the fire, and move on.
