Well to get to wvw just press the B key and in that screen select one of the battlegrounds to enter… probably the one with the most people will be the eternal battlegrounds.
You can enter at any level.
Stop the QQ noobs and l2p maby get more dps and people wont do this .
I can alt-f4 in like a quarter of a second. How much dps would you need to bring to kill someone that fast?
Let’s do the math
Let’s say a wvw player has an average of 20k hp, then you’d have to do 20k damage in 1/4 second, that would make 20×4 = 80k dps… approximately.
If the other quits, it doesn’t mean you won. What you’re asking is a true automatic victory since you’ll be able to get your reward without any effort.
For a system to be fair the, lets call it cheater, should be punished, but the other really shouldn’t be awarded for doing nothing…
From the way it sounds, once you are level 80 for a bit the cost becomes negligible.
I do have some questions for once you reach max level that would help me better understand the game play at that point. Is a lot of the world explored at that point either from previous questing or events? Do you still buy new gear from vendors just to keep up with the new zones? How close are you to maxing out at least your first crafting skill? Are there fewer quests that make you teleport to other zones?
That really depends on how you level up. Some people level mainly by crafting, so their crafting would be quite high for the time they reach 80 (and also probably with a nice rare or exotic crafted set). Others focus on exploring and map completion so it also would mean their world completion is pretty high. Others do mostly WvW, so in this case both their crafting and world completion would be quite low.
The way I did it, it was balanced between the 3 (a little more on exploration), so by the time I got to 80 I had like 75-80% world completion, one crafting at like lvl 375 (the other one at 0 lol) and my WvW maps (source of many crying around these forums) completed.
I also got to 80 with mainly blues and a couple of greens and yellows, so I boguht some items from the karma vendors at Orr. But while leveling only bought a couple of things and they were mainly because of their looks and not because I needed them. Most of the 80 gear is buyable though, being from gold or badges you get at dungeons or wvw.
About there being fewer quest, if you refer to hearts, then the last 3 zones (Orr) have no hearts at all, but they do have quite a lot dynamic events. If you’re not farming then you can easily keep up with them by just running, but if you go farm karma or loot or whatever, you’ll have to chase those better for what you want, and that could mean spending some silvers in waypoints.
Even though I’ve used mesmer portals a couple of times I think it is unfair the way they work in puzzles. But I doubt a timer is the solution, specially when those particular JPs are quite long and most people wouldn’t be able to do them in just 20 mins.
As a side note, I can’t understand how anybody would find fun to sit at a siege and shoot at people for hours… I mean I think my record it’s like half an hour in a trebuchet trying to take down a wall they kept repairing, and i was so sick of it afterwards I had to quit the game.
Its a good idea but it would make the economy way too complex, I think… I mean every item should be worth an amount of every other item.
People not used to trading would certainly be in a disadvantage since they could be trading their items for less than the market equivalent in a harder to notice way than it is now.
Minis should give small, almost insignificant, bonuses like 1% MF or Karma.
If minis had some benefits other then role-play they will become mandatory so they should be put in the game too without using the cash shop otherwise they will transform it into a pay to win.
C’mon Im suggesting something that is 1%, which means that if I make 378 karma (if I recall correctly) at a level 80 DE, I would get 3.78 ~ 4 more, so I would get 382 in total.
Is that really something mandatory or even pay to win? And even if it were, it would certainly be a lot less than the boosters currently available for purchase.
Minis should give small, almost insignificant, bonuses like 1% MF or Karma. It would be so small that it would hardly be game breaking not to have one, but still make it a little more attractive for people willing to get them. And the bonus could depend on the pet itself.
Or maybe make them collect loot for you so you don’t have to spam F all the time.
Give an option to personalize it, sure. But make it dissapear (or even hide) just doesn’t make sense to me, for example if you’re using the flamethrower the fuel for it has to come from somewhere…..
I find hilarious that there are people who think that spamming “LFG for X thing” in Lions Arch means they’re having a better comunication or interaction than if it were an automated system.
Your deffinition of something being fun, its only YOURs…
For instance, this:
“- Keep track of where the nodes are after each patch.
- Work out a path through Orr where you could survive, move quickly, and not waste too much money on teleports.
- Learn how to survive while running through Orr (possibly even modifying your build for it).”
For me it’s insanely tedious, stupid and boring, but that’s just me…
Following your example though, I should ask for a couple of rich ori in Queensdale or Celadon so it fits my play style… hmmm.
Not like wow’s true… that was a really stupid system.
But it does needs one, at least one that doesn’t have you stuck spamming in lions arch or any other high crowded area to get a group, so you could go and do some event or anything else while you wait. And that allows across servers grouping.
Not necessarilly automatized, but maybe expand the lfg feature in the social tab, so it shows every person online looking for a group and for what, with filters and the possibility for already made groups and all that sort of things…
Pushing NPCs off the cliff is a bad idea because people that are “Trolls/Rude/Mean” will knock your NPC off a cliff and what if that NPC has loot of them?
Sorry, but this feature will never be included.
Solution: real autoloot, or wvw style loot.
Problem: Knocking NPC off will be the most efficient way to kill. Just stand near a cliff and knock off the enemies off the cliff.
Solution: Don’t let enemies get knocked off cliffs.
So?… from starters not everywhere are cliffs so I hardly could kill everything this way.
Besides, using surrounding terrain or strategy to kill lure a mob to a cliff should be something rewarded with an easy kill.
I would love that we could have a button to dismiss or kill it without having to change the skill…
And that the kitten things wouldn’t just stand there while I’m being beaten…
Though I think it would be fun if they could get out of control and turn against you from time to time xD
Laziness has nothing to do with not wanting to stand in lions arch for 15 minutes or more to get a party done… its about efficiency.
Besides, if you want control, there could be some option to check the classes you’d like to be teamed with… Even though in my exp, only a few times I’ve seen someone asking for or against a specific class/build for their group.
Then don’t play… Never understood why people want to "feel "they’re playing a game, but in reality they aren’t…
Besides if the point of playing game is to have fun, then it should never feel like it burns out or unwanted work. And if the point is other than that, then you are doing something wrong.

Leveling isn’t grindy…wtf are you talking about? Everything, I mean really everything gives you exp… the only thing left is that you get exp from chatting.
Besides, if you say you like wvw, then do wvw… In my experience leveling in there is way faster than on the “real pve world”
I actually find both charr and asura voice acting quite awesome… the rest, on the other hand, seems like done by a bunch of teenagers doing some crappy school play.
Story mode should be soloable…
Not because it’s easier or antisocial or whatever you wanna call it, but because it’s supposed to be part of your own story, the one they sold out so much in their pre-release manifesto, beta weekend events, and whatever…
But now I have to sit there and watch as other guy takes my place in every single cutscene, just because he entered the dungeon first… or even hear them kitten at me because I take my time to watch the cinematics and don’t just skip them.
So yeah, story mode should be done solo, exp which are the ones that are “actually important” for the game, should remain as they are.
It should be like another weapon, not that “downed style” it has, fear is way too short, and life transfer should recover the necro’s actual health, not the life force one…
The way it is now, I mainly use it for staying alive a little longer or waiting (and guessing) for when my healing cd is done…
So, you want a different server without the X content, because you dont want the X content?
I have an AMAZING IDEA: Don’t do the X Content.
/SOLVED.
^THIS… you don’t need to run the new dungeons or get the new items if you don’t want to, if you could do the previous content without them, then you’ll still be able to do it
A nice addition would be that everytime anyone clicks on their icon in map in the open world, they get a red flash on their screen and a loud sound…
Then they’d reconsider annoying everyone and just disable their blue dorito…
It’s funny that the main argument against mounts always seems to be of the style “no, because not”… Followed by the almighty “they aren’t in lore” one, of course.
PS: I couldn’t care less about mounts being in game or not, just wanted to say that xD
It seems that there are only 2 ways of transportation in this game: walking/running and teleporting…
I remember doing, I think it was Diessa Plateau… I really can’t remember, it was one of the Ascalon maps… And to get to a vista on top of a tower you had to be fired from a cannon that fires cows, it had an event and it was really fun to see the cows flying, so when it was my turn I expected to fly through the airs towards the tower. When I got the loading screen and then appeared on top of the tower I was like “…..seriously??”
and quite a little disappointed.
So yes… even when most people seem to be in a hige rush while playing and everything has to be close to instant, for some of us those little things could actually spice up the game a little and make it even more enjoyable.
… Stuff being soulbound is soulbound exactly so that you can’t just farm it once and swap it to the rest of your characters.
I’m sorry, I just can’t see what would be wrong with that…
It’s not like asking to give you stuff without any effort. If you already did everything you were required to obtain it, you should be able to do whatever you want with it.
I agree, a lot of this game armor are like this (I would dare to say 80-90%) and really isn’t of everybodys taste or liking. At least for me, I would prefer something short for the chest and some pants or whatever for the legs. But not that the chest covers both chest and legs….
I would like an addition where your personality could also more than just dialogues, for instance vendors:
Any vendor would have some affinity and some, let’s call it hate, towards some given personality (and probably indiference towards the rest). So if my characters personality is the one the vendor likes, he’ll probably offer me a discount, but if he hates me probably would charge me extra, not something so big but maybe +/- 5-10%.
Don’t know what level you are but in my experience the first levels are harder, then they start to get easier, and after 70 they’re like walks in the park, probably because you have better gear, traits and skills, besides you learn how to fight better…
-When up-scaled, you still receive drops for the depth your maximum is. A depth 5 person in a depth 12 dungeon would get tokens that are depth 5 in number
I agree with most except this, it’s unfair.
If my skill is enough to finish the dungeon in a harder difficulty I should be rewarded according to such difficulty. Even if I haven’t done the previous steps to get there.
That would be ok for a grinding/time expended reward system, not the skill based one this game claims it has.
Maybe he should avoid those “hardcore” guilds filled with people who just take the game way too seriously…
But not every guild require it, for instance my guild, we have a vent room but no one ever uses it xD but in the end I’m sure he could find one that suits his playstyle and doesn’t have extreme “policies” like ignoring all who isn’t on vent or whatever…
