So you’ve done all the tiers of both? If not, I’d say Chuka and Champawat.

Bring Down The Abomination (is a joke)

Are you killing the grubs when the Abomination is right in the middle of them? You need to make sure it gets caught in the death blast of all of them. Use the two groups of four first.

Seems to be all story instances. Just finished “The Commander” and both Logan and Countess Anise stood around while I dealt with the Ministry Guard alone. It was only until I dragged Commander Serentine over to them did they start to fight.

Fashion help (heavy female Norn)

This was the direction I leaned with my Norn Revenant. Aimed for a bit of an Icy Dragon look – mixing Resplendant Curtain, Herald Shoulders, Order of Whispers Chest, Armageddon Gauntlets, Mistward Leggings, and Flame Legion Greaves.
Still on the lookout for a decent looking hammer and staff skin for her though.

A few ecto from rares that dropped after Claw of Jormag, the results of a tier 4 fractal win (thankfully I didn’t open the boxes, so I didn’t know if I “lost” an ascended chest or not…) and when I had to reopen a BL Chest, I got a Trading Post Express instead of the Dye Kit that dropped a Spearmint Dye for me – but I still got my tenth Claim Ticket scrap, so not a huge loss.

Vets refuse to help or even apple

I tend to only Apple up when:
- People are on a map asking about a guild bounty and I spot it. I’ll tag the closest waypoint, and tag up letting them know where it is at. I’ll then follow it until I see people showing up.
- Same for Treasure Mushrooms.

I want a bikini made of animal skins & furr and teeth and bones, and some gladiator sandals and an antler headpiece, and some jewelry to match.

Yes! If Faren can run around the jungle all Tarzan-like, why the heck can’t my Norn Warrior? (Plus he could get the Hair Style Kit, dye his hair blond, and do a He-Man cosplay!)

Season 3 Will Suffer

There is no LS3 hype cause its probably not going to be free for the playable chapters. Anet got their Money for HoT and I’ll be they want more money for LS3. My prediction is no Hype Train cause each playable Episode of LS3 is going to cost 600-800 gems.

Otherwise we would see some sort of PR data from Anet. Blogs or otherwise. Why else would they be so tight lipped about it.

Well, two things:
1.) They have said they want to deliver and then hype, not hype and not deliver.
2.) LS3 isn’t going to be free. It’s been said before that LS3 will require HoT. Which is not free. So, if you’re a F2P player, then you won’t get LS3. If you’re not, you’re going to get LS3.

Hardest map completion?

Barring HoT maps, Dredgehaunt Cliffs.
It’s not that the content itself is difficult, it’s just tedious to complete.
Oddly though, the Ascalon maps are typically always my last ones to complete.

Making Hall of Monuments assets available

Just in case – GW2 only player.
I concur with everyone who did play GW1 and earned these skins. They paid for it, they worked for it. Let them keep it. If you want those skins, go play GW1 for the skins like they did.
I know if I wanted those skins, that’s how I’d do it.

Re: Collections for Ascended

Since you’ll need zone currency for them, you’ll end up doing a lot of zone events, which also reward Karma. So this ends up being pretty win-win. The only issue here is the need for HoT Masteries.

Make World Bosses Great Again 2016

Want people to run pre-events? Make pre-events offer a temporary buff that increases magic find, or gives an extra champ-bag after beating the boss. Make it worth more than a teensy bit of silver, and some zone dependent Karma.

Character

I second the “Play what you want.” idea.

That said, you have multiple character slots, it’s worth rolling up a couple of different professions that sound interesting – if only to see what fits your play style best. (I also suggest at least three characters – one to see the Vigil storyline, one for the Priory, and one for the Order of Whispers.)

A thought of faction

Azakael.3019

With the Pact in the state that it is after HoT, I wouldn’t mind seeing an exploration of the rivalries between the different factions that make up the Pact.

More importantly, wouldn’t mind seeing your Order choice being important again. I don’t know how, but it would be nice.

I am also in favor of more body type choices.

(Pic 1) I have a Zuko toon and he is lost and confused without the guidance of his dear Uncle Iroh.

Off-topic, but meh…
You’ve pulled off a fairly accurate Zuko! I’m kittened impressed with it.

Party Chat not Disappear After Grp Leave Plz

Yeah, it’d be nice if party chat stayed once you left the party. I can’t see any reason to kill the entire log.

Dungeon Story Paths

in Fractals, Dungeons & Raids

Posted by: Azakael.3019

Azakael.3019

Quick off-subject, wasn’t there a suggestion sub-forum before?

Back on subject. It would be really, really, REALLY nice to have one of two things related to Dungeons. Either:
- Story paths unlock once per account. Once you’ve run the story path of a dungeon on a character, it is unlocked for all characters.
Or:
- A tab on your hero screen that you can hop to and see if your character has completed a story path of a particular dungeon or not.

I know it’s not necessary to have completed the story path to run another path if someone else starts the instance, but when you have multiple toons – and you want to start a dungeon run because no one else is running it in LFG – it would be nice to see which ones can start it or not.

- I second the coffee mug. I’d like my Revenant symbol and Reaper symbols on a mug, please and thank you.
- Physical versions of some of the miniatures. I wouldn’t mind a collection of small Cat Golems.

And I’d like a way to purchase the full soundtrack. It appears to be gone now. :\

Outnumbered Reward Incentive

in WvW

Posted by: Azakael.3019

Azakael.3019

So, fairly new to WvW. I know I need to git gud and have a build that’s intended for WvW and not just using my PvE build, but otherwise – I’m mostly enjoying it.

I say mostly because it seems every time I’ve been on WvW my server has been Outnumbered. While I still have fun, it does get frustrating after a while of being steamrolled by giant Zergs of doom, meanwhile you have maybe four or five people. Which brings me to the Outnumbered bonus rewards.

I understand that the purpose is to incentivize you to stick around on WvW until populations balance out. My issue is that the rewards just don’t seem like a good enough incentive. Out of the four boosts you get for being outnumbered, only WvW experience is worth a hoot. The Experience boost is now useless, since you no longer gain general XP in WvW. The Magic Find boost is minor, at best. And the no armor damage? Meh. It’s not like it costs anything to repair anymore. So, my thought is simple. We just got a brand new reward track, right? Why not give a bonus to reward track gains? First it feels more rewarding than a boost to Magic Find. Second, you have to stick around and participate in a zone to receive the rewards, since they only proc every 15 minutes or so.
Possible consequence – players deliberately seeking out outnumbered Borderlands/ EotM in order to maximize their rewards track gains.
Thoughts?

HoT Price Feedback + Base game included [merged]

I could get behind this idea. If they did this, I’d gladly drop the $50 for the xpac.

The pricing is unethical, but come on. We’ve been waiting 3 years for this expansion. Is there any hard core GW player who isn’t going to buy this?

At this point? I can wait for the expansion to go on a sale. $50 for the XPac, no extra character slot? And including free something I already own? Woo… Nope. Not worth $50. I’ll keep playing without it. I still have a lot of things I can do in the meantime, that doesn’t require the pack.
