Guild Wars 2

I gotcha Thanks Garb so for me PvX defiantly

Hello everyone I am looking for a new guild.

I am either interested in a casual or semi-hardcore family oriented guild that cares for one another. I am interested in both PvP and PvE and PvX not sure what PvX is but willing to learn.
My server is Borlis Pass not sure if that relevant.
Also would like a guild that is in the Western side of USA Would help with having a guild that is in the same time zone as I am when doing runs or PvP.

I have about every Class in my disposal exception of Engineer the rest of the classes I find fun to play I do have more than one of certain class which are 2 of Elementalist, 2 of Mesmer maybe make a second for Necromancer but havn’t decided yet.

One last thing is I like to be in an active guild no newly created guild but a long living and active guilds I prefer.

I am ingame most of the time so feel free to whisper me or respond here.

Hello Anet I am pretty sure not a lot of people are reporting this bug but I think it is a bug.

On the Character Selection Screen the Charr doesn’t matter if male or female but on the Character Selection showing the charrs inaccurate height right now they are like towering over the screen and as far I can tell charr are not taller than the Norn this need to be fixed The Norn are fine on height just need to change the Charr height on the Selection screen by either by 15% or 20% and they will be perfect.

I never made a charr only reason why is the height bug I think the charr are a cool race but I choose not to make one because of that bug.

Can you please fix and you will make an account holder happy.

I think the Largos may work if Anet dose make them as playable race I will defently be on of the many people to make a Largos character.

But the question is will Anet make a new playable race? I know it will have to be in a story that take place within the expansion and its own Story for its race but I don’t think they will make the story available for the vanilla version of GW2 to join the order’s or what not, Maybe joining the PACT but that’s about it unless the orders are still their just put off to the side when PACT is around.

That’s all I can think of since the PACT will still need new recruits after the events in Maguuma were the PACT was hit a lot harder than Zhaitan ever did.

I do know that Anet won’t rewrite the old story just to fit a new race.

Lastly Anet hasn’t announced they will never ever make a new race on any expansion they release so its possible they may make one on future expansions.

Its happening to me also it seems after the patch they screwed something up with the mail box and yes it will have to be a high priority fix.

Thanks for the info Fluffy yea for Fractals I will most likely use my Condi warrior since its most favored in HoT.

Once the Second Expansion releases or gets announced we will know what will change for the Warrior.

As for the build you linked its not working the site comes up but the build link is showing its empty with a tinted gray on the whole site can’t click anywere.

Hello guys I need some help on which weapons are best to use for a power warrior I know Power warriors aren’t great but I have a second character which will be for power warrior on standby until Anet decided to up the power warriors again to were both condi and power are about the same on dps and damage.

For the weapons for a while I gotten to the point that greatsword isn’t my forte atleast on a warrior just don’t like the playstyle on the warrior. Now I do like the sword and axe which I know that sword is best used for condi and that’s what I am using for my condi warrior now for power I want to use axe I love the playstyle of axe and I don’t care if they are great with damage or meta.

Know what I need help is what weapon to use for offhand for the power warrior for both dungeons and fractials also for solo runs for map roaming that includes maguuma and other max level maps added in HoT.

If you guys have a recommended build please add them any info is welcome to improve the power warrior.

Great work almost looks just like the one ingame nice work and and me as a guy you do look beautiful in it.

I am pretty sure that Kristen will have some ideas once she finds out that a lot of use players like to see more leafy hair and maybe other things that can work in the game since yes their will be problem from the game on other hair styles but like I said in the thread I hope to see more pony tail and long hair versions in the future.

Hello Anet Dev team I have a suggestion for the Sylvari Hair so far I have seen some nice hair but the rest I see a lack of potential and I don’t really use I love the sylvari race they are great but their hair is lacking most of new hair styles I have seen are stiff or solid shape hair what I am suggesting to add more loose and flowy hair and no other that can do that is its leaves, flowers, fines, and some berries you can add for certain hair styles.

So I am suggesting on the next release of hair styles is to add more leaf like hair loose and flowing from long to short, and yes add some pony tails I haven’t seen these in sylvari yet so I do like to see a handful of those from loose to braided even a braid that goes all the way down to her butt which a woman’s hair can grow that long and so will sylvari or maybe longer.

I also found a video shows some great hair styles that the Dev team can use for examples.

Sylvari Hair Video

I do hope to see more good hair styles on the future releases keep it up.

Hello I am contacting here since I can’t find the right place to post bug’s and its a bug that is a must fix!!!!!!!
The Bug is the drop rate on the Hardened Leather Sections they are way to low compared to Gossamer which drops a lot on sacks, bags, boxes, and chests. Not only that Gossamer is very cheap in Trade to were Hardened Leather Sections are expensive and that leather is mostly used in crafting.

So its a very serious issue not a lot of people will beable to craft not only exotic but also ascended that requires this leather nore level their crafting skills.

So I strongly recommended to up the drop-rate of the Hardened Leather Sections as high as the Gossamer scraps same goes with the Cured Hardened Leather Squares.

I really do hope this issue will be fixed.

Interesting interesting post guys since we are talking about the next Xpack I have a suggestion of my own and I do hope its an idea for anet.

My topic is for conversations. the conversations in the first game release what pretty good except the odd backgrounds the first xpack conversations was better but you were only seeing the characters.

So my suggestion change that no special background please when in a conversation next have the camera viewing the person that is talking example when a player is taking the camera views the player when an npc talks the camera switches to the npc. Similar system that been done with shows and movies for years. With this new system I would also recommend to add more facial expressions to make the person actually express their emotion when in conversation as well as body language and arm movement. One last thing is when a person is suppose to hold an item they are holding an item not a person holding something that isn’t their. Now I am sure some people ask if theirs a crowed doing the same conversation that’s simple just phase out the background players exception of the players your in group with.

So that’s my suggestion is to improve the conversation system making the conversation fun to watch.

Also make the story more enjoyable not boring.

Mounts:

Yea I do agree SlippyCheeze ground mounts I feel we do need to make thing more realistic speed boost isn’t really a problem as long the speed isn’t like World of Warcraft using the current speed boost for a mount I would say adding the speed a bit more for the mount as beasts move faster than a person for a horse example they move 15 mph more than a human or faster if they are race horses. So making the boost speed for mounts could be like 40% than 33% or 45% no faster will indeed make it faster to get to were ya need to go the current maps are big enough for the ground mounts so everything should be fine even if anet removes half of the waypoints from each of the maps.

Now my idea for the mounts them selves would be similar to how a character is created. First choose your species / then choose the animals skin, fur, or scale color and pattern / last armor if you want your animal to have armor and its colors / last your saddle and its style and color. If you want more than one mount you can but only certain limit to each character for me I would suggest max to 3 mounts. As for changing the animals style you still can even when Anet adds new stuff to your mount.

This way it won’t be like other games were you have a big collection of mounts fixed on style and color.

Well I am sure people who are for mounts won’t stop asking Anet to add them I for one just to shut those people up just go ahead and add them.

Using the standard speed boost available in the game is fast enough for a mount when using the boost permanently or adding additional 5% to 10% of speed which horses dose run slightly faster than a human.

For a horse runs no faster than 30 mph if not bred for racing and a healthy human 20 mph when sprinting. When ya think about it theirs not much of a boost if you add additional 10% maximum for the mounts.

Yes the mount may run little faster but still take a bit to get to were ya need to go if ya ignore the Waypoints. So yes Waypoints will still be used.

My idea for mounts will be similar for the armor for the characters. First off you choose your animal some will be limited by your race, then you can choose your color of the animal and patterns then you got your mount but if you want to change the animal or its fur color or pattern ya just have to do the cosmetic change.

Now for the fun part the saddles and armor you put on your beast. Their will be many styles of the saddle and armor also you can custom color them like the armor that your characters wear.

Now the big mistake that a lot of mmos get is were ya get huge amount of mounts With my idea you won’t need that many mounts which I am gussing to have no more than 2 per character which is reasonable even for players that have a lot of Characters in their account.

I agree with you all although I am not good at finding out which part of the class is wrong with but I do know theirs something wrong with the Revenant.

To Anet Revenants is a Cool class to play when it comes to playstyle but its power and damage is questionable so listen to these guys I am sure they know more about whats wrong. Their is a warning if your Anet team doesn’t rebalance the Revenants lot of people will stop playing Revenants if they do play a Revenant will be only for resource grinding in an open world environment and that’s all they will be good for.

Only way to know that is Anet responds and tells us what they are planning with the Revenant but like a lot of other game companies they no longer listen to their players in the forums.

Why? Well I can say on every forum people put in negative posts, complaints, bickering, and most of all trolling. So I believe only way for Anet to read the post and responds if theirs info on to why theirs something wrong with the Class aka Profession explaining why it doesn’t work. Then someone replies with more good info than replying and putting down the main author of the thread.

I really do like to hear responses from Anet about what’s going on with the game but since a lot of negative posts Anet won’t respond to us.

Other than that So far I do like the Revenant I just leveled my character to 80 so far I am seeing problems with it. The Revenant feels clunky squishy for a plate wearer, no wieldable Greatsword like most the other classes do and I feel that this class needs a Greatsword.

I do agree the Centaur needs some work I like to heal as the Revenant but the heals feel underpowered and clunky.

The Glint I do agree needs to be buffed or removed I myself couldn’t stay alive with Glint when going against multiple enemies.

In the end Revenant dose need to be rebuffed but on certain areas which I can’t say but if ya read the other posts ya can see why.

For the Class itself its a good fun but being broken and nerfed really bad would make the class unplayable even though its a new class I really do like Revenant I just hope Anet dose fix the class right before the xpack which to me I think is not a good idea delaying for the next xpack.

I do hope that we will hear from Anet about the Revenant so far fingers crossed.

I forgot to add when I was doing the old storyline when I was leveling up a new character I have seen half of the story is still using the old Lions Arch model I was disappointed that it was still using the old model So I would suggest changing that so the new model will be used for the story or any chance that the Development team will change that.

Hello Dev team been playing GW2 for a while havn’t done any endgame yet since I haven’t fully leveled to 80.

Anyways heres some ideas I have in mind for the offhand focus So far I have seen a focus could be anything for a caster but the problem is its something that the character is holding and so far making to were it looks blan when a caster wields it. I propose an alternative to make the caster more fun to play why not give the focus something that is animated and looking like the item is enchanted.

Example: a floating opened book either following a character of with the characters hand up and the book floats on top of the hand. or an orb that would be floating around with different auras emanating from it like fire coming out of the orb for a Elementalist is using fire or spouting water, rocks, etc, for other professions mesmers could have some illusions coming out of the orb or butterfly’s flying around the character, etc etc, for necromancers like a dark green aura coming from the orb or even an animated skull, or like the book have the characters hand up with the orb on top of the character’s hand.

So a lot of things ya can use for the focus offhand than just an item that a character has to hold on to.

Now so far if arena plans to make another profession for the next upcoming expansion which I am sure they will since how popular the game is right now. I would recommend a Wizard/Witch with some Cool spells that other proffessions aren’t using and with a combo of telepathy no a wizard doesn’t really have to read minds but move objects, using waves etc that wizards we have seen in films or books. A good example is Gandalf using all sorts of invisible magic in Lord of the Rings.

Arena may not use this idea for their next profession but its something I like to post.

Either way hope the new content will make the game even more enjoyable to play.

Well the topic speaks for its self I find that Dual Pistols are fun but the main problem is theirs little to no Utility same with dual Daggers for thief I would recommend to add them making dual weapons more useful and more fun also more useful for all types of play from pvp/solo/pve as of right now dual weapons seems to do well in pvp and solo only but not recommended for pve dungeons and raiding.

I hope the Devs will take it to consideration and plan to add on future patches.

If anymore wants to add to the problem with dual weapons for thief your welcome to add.

Ok I guess I may have over did it on the current skins being so skimpy I would say it but I still want to see more Robe type of armor for casters I missed those even with some areas were the female skin shows heh I don’t mind that.

Well the one topic was talking about the problems with the armor skins so heres some suggestions I like to place here even though they won’t get change but its still something I like to say to the devs

one of the things I see here that are troubling is the female armor now ok I can understand to see some skin when the female character wears her armor from light to medium to heavy but not like what GW2 is showing those armors are showing 50% or more of the characters skin. That’s just wrong in the medieval times the dresses that the woman wears either covers their whole body or only shows 5% of their skin but only showing their upper chest. Now if the world of Tyria is really their like real life and you walk around in lets say Divinity’s Reach and see heros and common woman walk around with half naked clothing would that be disturbing or would you want to see what to woman suppose to wear clothing that only shows like 15% of their skin.

Now in WoW theirs no female armor that is showing a lot of skin like in GW2. I used to play WoW and all the female armor are mostly either fully covering the females body or some armor that shows some skin like up to 20% I think a little much but not ridiculously. So that’s one of the things that the dev’s should at least fix.

Secondly we do need more caster like armor like shown in WoW were ya actually look like a caster or a wizard for that matter that is actually a robe with pants under it I for one miss those kinds of armor looks.

So devs even if ya don’t fix the female armor skin issue atleast hear my second suggestion on adding some real robe armors for casters like how WoW made them and other medieval fantasy films that have robe like clothing for casters

Oh dam I may have stured up some mean people :S but I did made a point on the wrong way. But I am really saddened that Arena hasn’t added the mounts but from all that running made ya think man all that running around would make ya feet hurt. :S

If everyone enjoys running around all day everyday. But it dose kinda ruin the realism of the old times were theirs no mounts for this game. If Arena dose actually puts those mounts in what I want to drive is those nice 2 wheel tanks that the charrs have now those are awesome.

Back to you Magnus

I really do agree I miss having mounts and the Devs are missing out a lot of things for not having mounts in this game. Their even ways to limit the speeds on mounts so people won’t miss out on the exploration on the maps.

Dev’s sorry we will keep asking about needing mounts on this game till we are blue in the face or unless ya make a statement on why you don’t want to add mounts and sticky it on the forums to stop future mount requests.

I do enjoy this game thanks arena ya did a great job on this game but their is one thing that is not right about this game theirs NO MOUNTS

I don’t get it every mmo game I have been to has mounts why why WHY this game doesn’t have any?

Yea one thing about mounts is that the speed increase to ya can get to one place to another quicker but that ya can limit the speed on mounts to make the speed scale like horses run in real life. Anyways I can understand on the flying mounts with a huge speed increase and missing out on a lot of the graphical content that Dev’s put into so I would suggest ground only mounts.

Ya gotta have a mount its a needed thing even back in the midevil times mounts is needed for long distant journeys. Even movies like Lord of the Ring’s, and other Midevil movies that doesn’t have any mechanical machines that take ya places uses a mount.

Even mounts will do great to make ya character look more better stand out etc and other things that a lot of people say yes to mounts for mmo games.

If devs chose to not add those mounts because of the fast moving speeds then they are missing the point ya can limit the speeds ya don’t have to follow World of Warcraft version of mount speed on the fastest ground mount. Just give a mount a 25% or 50% speed increase when ya riding and ya still go like awe on the works that arena has made to the game. Also remove like half of the maps Waypoints that way ya can still use waypoints for things like need to get to an event quick or need to get to the certain part of the map to get to a dungeon.

Also like other people are asking adding some combat while mounted just have some combat abilities not many. It will suit great in wvw even after ya balance out the problems.

If Arena net still say no to mounts then please give us a reason why you chose not to add the mounts and never ever planning to add any mounts and put a sticky to ya forums so that way ya don’t get anymore topics like these for people who are asking for mounts for this game.

Sorry if this post is like trolling but I just mad that this mmo has gone out of mounts theirs a lot of ways ya can limit the mounts so those who want to just speed demon ya way to another area theirs a lot of reasons to wanting a mount and theirs a lot of ways to limit them so it won’t be games like WoW and just limit the mounts to ground only.
By doing this right ya can still have the exploration experience when not having a mount.

Hello all I gone a tried thief and I am actually loving it I am loving the dual wields of daggers and pistols. So my question is will I beable to do fine when ya dual dagger or pistol when leveling or will I have survival problems meaning dyeing often?

If they are fine I am planning to use both dual wields primary daggers and secondary pistols now the question is which traits I need to use when I am leveling on good on survivability and a way to kill things quick :P
