Well, i am looking for someone to tell me the general feel of the professions, so I can see whats what. Like Elementalist’s AoE damage, or Thief’d mobility.
And when I said professions, I meant the battle classes, not the crating professions.
I was just wondering what to start playing as.
I know stuff got changed alot in (about a year) i been gone. Can someone give me a quick rundown of what the professions are good at now.
I remember playing a mesmer, and it was rateher fun, but had its problems in PvE, and I wasn’t that great at PvP :-( (Just needed to practice more)
So if someone can give me a quick rundown on the current situation, that’d be great.
There is a difference between ANet being stupid and putting in a recipe like that, and the actual game code not working properly (say, bugged boss).
Bugs are a result of human error. The incorrect mats are a part of the game not working properly since, given every other recipe in the game of the same tier as the snowflake, it was vastly different, better, and completely circumventing of the price of salvaging where the major ingredient is either lost entirely or almost entirely.
Yes, but in the 1st instance, the person actually misplaced a digit or some such, while here, they clearly made the snowflake a salvage item. It wasnt a single misclicked key.
Banning people for playing the market? After Arena specifically stated that playing the market is perfectly valid. Good luck with that. Its a ~free market~ and unless you want Arena to decide the price of everything for you (hello communism), you will deal with the ebbs and flows that come with a free market.
And, really, are we so pathetic as to compare (what was) a clearly bugged recipe that existed for all of a few days with a method of income that has existed since release? Sure seems desperate.

I agree, apart from obvious bots there a lot of people damaging the TP, hopefully the new TP coming will fix some issues, but i agree with op its not a stock market game these people deserve bans as much as the exploiters on those trinkets do…maybe more..
you can get banned for salvaging items YOU make with YOUR own mats? W-T-F? what’s next? they’re gonna tell me how many hours per week im allowed to play? wtf is going on with gw2 exactly….
Yeh, pretty much, anything they say is not allowed ISN’T allowed. They can say it after someone done something and then punish the person because its not allowed.
And funny thing is, the players are using the system the best they can, but they arent actually glitching it or hacking it. They get banned by using things ANet implemented.
Their only mistake is not reading ANet’s mind and realizing that ANet never intended people to buy cheap materials, make items and salvage them for large profit.
Only way I’d agree someone should be banned for exploiting, is if they do something that is CLEARLY not right, like making a VERY strong raid boss die in 2 hits, or be unable to use skills.
I think OP’s beef is with those people who can monopolize certain items.
Imagine someone with thousands of gold, buying up all (lets say) Runes of Divinity and listing them 2x as high.
Thats what happened with precursors, that went from being around 200g to 400g
And the only really difficult one is the lodestone
If you dont farm them, and just buy the mats, it would still cost around that much…
Price is set by the devs, when they adjust drop rate. I just want to know how to get so much money.
Also, difficult and time consuming are different things.
I am sure you carefully monitor prices in game, and adjust drop rates and such accordingly. SO can you please tell me how to get enough money to buy a legendary which currently sells for 1000 or more gold (and that’s just the requests).
I want one, and I am curious how to make so much money.
Because it must be intended by you for them to cost so much.
Harder to make any profit with crafting/reselling.
Currently, the only types of people who are rich are ones that:
1) Got lucky with precursor
2) Have a tonn of time to farm things
3) Have so much gold already that they can still monopolize some of the market (precursors)
Tried making some money by crafting an item only 1 of which was listed on TP and was listed for 6g. Made the item, posted for 5g+, in the next 2 days i see the price drop to 3 gold because 20 others decided t make it… (also, re listing it continuously would make me lose more money than i could possibly make)
Anyone else hate the cross-server TP?
Dude… we have 3 days worth of these events… you do realise that they wont cheat people out of monthly achievement even if they cant log in for the event.
I am sorry if there already was a thread on this, but it seems ANet listened atleast to some of what we said, and implemented the Shards as a buyable item from fractals merchant. http://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Merchant_
1) “Ascended rarity falls between Exotics and Legendaries on the rarity spectrum.”
Do you mean legendary weapons? Arent they still exotic in quality? Or is there going to be a legendary quality? >_<
