New Races in the future?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

I think the Tengu have quite good potential for a future playable race.

Anything but Quaggan, Hylek and/or Skritt.

and don’t even take Dredge into consideration.

Worst color combination ever?

I’n my opionion it’s not as bad as the Abyss & Celestial combo… getting really tired of seeing people only wearing those colours.

Sure you’re gonna want to show off the rare dyes you have, but i just feel peoples creativity is sacrificed as a resualt.

Why is the tone and style of GW2 so "goofy"

And, lastly, the gem store is screaming for name change contracts to complement the total makeover kits- and instead plush backpacks with effin quaggans and charrs get added… another gag instead of something truly useful!

This ^

A name changer is a must, and it’s sad to see that the whole Qauggan thing being pushed too far :/

Why is the tone and style of GW2 so "goofy"

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

As much as love and enjoy GW2, I am disappointed by how… (like the OP said) ‘goofy’ the style is. It is not how it was really advertised, for me anyway.

GW2 looked like it was going to be the first ‘mature’ MMO around, since I could not stand the art style of WoW, or anything by blizzard for that matter. and other games like Tera and Aion just looked over the top with the style.

Certain races like the Quaggan, Hylek and Skrit really bother me they are just outright annoying and somewhat childish… I know there are countless people who like them, but I feel somewhat embarrassed by those races. and now we have quaggan backpacks all over the place too… and people requesting quaggans as a playable race.

Another aspect that I find annoying is the quotes that some of the players come out with… ‘I could outrun a centaur’ springs to mind… and the extremely annoying noises that male Norns yell out, I would have hoped for something more aggressive with male Norns, but instead they make the most kitten noises like ‘GHOOOOOOL’. Battles just don’t sound like battles at all I find. it’s just the exchange of daft quotes over and over.

But none the less. I do enjoy playing this game, it is fun and it is put together really well, and I’m hooked…

I just hope that TES:O sticks to it’s style and doesn’t go down the same path all other MMOs go down… I just want an MMO where I don’t feel like I’m about to be mugged by the Teletubbies at any given moment.

Are fractals the only way

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

I find that Orr has become quite bad for loot, even with full MF gear on, as for CoF path 1, DR seems to take a heavy hit, so it’s not like you can exactly farm it, unless you are going for Flame legion Charr Carvings, and nothing else…

As for FotM, I find it is always good for loot, no type of DR in any way. from my expeirance, i would say that Fractals is pretty much the only way to get good loot now… lets just hope ANet don’t spoil Fractals… like they did with the loot in Orr.

Guesting is out of control.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

I totaly agree with the OP,

Guesting is being abused for major events, I dont see why people on their home server should have to be put into overflows and miss out on the events completely. I have just missed out on Shatterer and Tequatl on Desolation due to these selfish players. It’s not like they can not do the events on there own server… so what if they have to wait for 2 or so hours intill the next event rather than just hopping over to the more convenient server for the next event, since players on the home server would have been waiting just as long… just for a overflow!!!

Fix this by not allowing guesting players to be rewareded with chests, atleast for the major events

Class Balancing Discussion

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

I totally agree with the OP,

Warriors do need a nerf, and Necromancers and Engineers need a buff, even the Rangers could be tweaked a bit.

When doing Dungeon / Fractal runs, Warriors and Guardians are always valued greatly over the other classes. leading often to teams of 4/5 heavies. and Necromancers and Engineers are always last choice, and Rangers are often shunned due to the lack of control over their pets, which I’ll admit can be very frustrating at times.

I see nothing wrong with the Elementalist, Guardian, Mesmer and Thief classes. they all seem to be scaled fairly and play their roles well in a party. Okay it’s understandable that classes like the necromancer are built for the intention of soloing, but this is an MMO after all, so playing a role in a team ends up being very vital to getting anywhere in the game. so I feel classes like that should be more adaptable and to serve more use the party.

I can’t say much about the Engineer… since pretty much nobody plays as one. So i am sure that says enough.

Warriors though, they need nerfing. They are the ultimate easy-mode class. plus the fact that so many people use them to do event farming in Orr now due to the high damage and defence, and the wide range of AoE attacks. Playing as any other class trying to get a hit on a single target in hope for loot is a waste of time, since a mob of risen is flattened in seconds by 10 or so warriors at a time all using greatswords, mostly ‘Whirlwind Attack’.

As for Dungeon / Fractal runs I’ll admit Warriors are always a must and are valued greatly, but that should be the case for any class.

It seems unfair to me that when a party is being formed this is often the case… A Thief joins the party, but there is already another Thief in the group, ‘sorry, we already have a thief, we can’t take you’ yet a party of 3 Warriors, a Guardian and a Thief is perfectly fine ‘lol 4/5 heavies ftw’. This happens far too much.

Is anyone avoiding ascended gear and why?

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

I actually like the acended gear, love the fractals back item/ it’s just nice to have more content to grind for.

I think that agony would be added in with other elements of the game at some point or other infusion for new condidions or something, i doubt that acended gear will be a fractals only ‘must have’ in the near future.

I would like to see more acended gear thats actually like armor and is visable to other players.

besides, it’s nice to have gear that you can’t just buy off the trader. i feel more of a sence of achevement with these iteams compared to most other accessories.

LF Desolation Fractals Guild

Looking for a guild on Desolation that has a good community for Fractals of the mists and Dungeon runs.

Not to fussed about WvW or PvP but wouldn’t mind being part of a guild that mixes in all sorts.

But I am mainly looking for a guild that is good with fractals of the mist.

not interested in changing servers because I am very happy with Desolation.

Volcanic Fractal is hard.

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

half of the time the groups dont even get that far, with the captives part… sure that dodge / blind agony part is simple enough. but my point still stand about it being just so much harder that the other fractals at it’s level.

Volcanic Fractal is hard.

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Blackers.7512

The volcanic fractal past level 20 is just too hard, in compression to the other fractals at the same level it is just not in the same league.

Every time i have attempted it, the groups will end up biting each others heads off and pointing fingers then giving up. nothing is more frustrating after doing 2 fractals then having to end it all on the Volcanic fractal.

I just don’t understand why it is so much harder than the others at it’s level.

I have got to level 29 in fractals of the mist due to completing runs that don’t have this fractal, it seems to be the only way at the moment.

it is so disheartening to have done so well on the first 2 fractals then to have volcanic, because I have got the point now where I know the group will fall apart and leave.

and before the elitist trolls start saying ‘learn to play’ or ‘find a guild’ that has nothing to do with it. because it is so blatant that the difficulty of this 1 fractal is just so much higher than the rest, and it just seems ridiculous.

I just feel it should be watered down a bit to fit in with the other fractals at it’s level.

I really enjoy FotM and grinding it day in day out… but this 1 fractal really ruins it all.

anyone else share my views on this?

New Legendaries

in Guild Wars 2 Discussion

Posted by: Blackers.7512

Blackers.7512

can’t say I am a fan of the legendary weapon designs at the moment, most of them look like toys from a joke shop. they just don’t look… legendary.

There needs to be more variants to choose from, so you can pick something to go along side your character style.

afterall, given all the effort that goes into making a legendary in game, you atleast should have some more options to make it all worth while.

As a thief i would want a weapon that has looks and effects that go along side the class style. at the moment I have the options of a short bow with a unicorn and butterfly wings that shoots rainbows… a pistol that shoots bubbles and confetti, while looking like it has just came out of the film ‘Yellow Submarine’… and ofcourse Incinerator, which is just over the top, and not to mention pretty much the only legendary a thief is going to make, given that it seems to be the only option we get.

I really do hope more legendary weapons come out soon, and i hope they look good.

I would really like to see this implemented into the game. I haven’t been playing Guild Wars 2 for long, as I am new to this game, and loving it. but I really feel this game needs to have the option to allow you to edit your appearance, I can’t really see it working just as a cash shop item, but instead give you the choice to find the option in game, and have the choice also available in the cash shop, kind of like a once use item that allows you to open up the character editor. but no matter what, this game could really do with the option to change your characters appearance.
