Guild Wars 2

Astral Projections.7320:

It’s an interesting suggestion but I’m not sure it addresses the concerns about harassment.

/duel

Duel me bro, come on, touch it. TOUCH IT! What’s the matter, you chicken? HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT THIS GUY TOO COWARDLY TO TOUCH THE POLE!

As I understand the previous concerns it’s not so much the request to duel that is bothering people but the harassment people say they encounter. Which is why I was suggesting a gem store item. If you don’t have one it’s the ultimate, no I can’t.

I realize that but wouldn’t that pretty much be considered the same way as other bothersome people/goldsellers? Block them and/or report them.

While there will be some idiots (there always are), putting such a feature as dueling in the gemstore would solve only be a hindrance for most people while your “Touch it!” example-idiot would only add the “or are you a coward AND cheap” comment as well.

It was only a implementation suggestion but overall I feel dueling would do more good than harm and without introducing other than already existing problems.

I feel everyone is too locked into “right-click and select duel on someone”. Why not have it implemented like /rank or through an item-like thing? For example write “/duel” and your character will plant a dueling flag which other players can walk up to and interact with to initiate the duel.

That way you CAN’T spam duels on people who doesn’t want it, no need to even add an ignoring option. It would work like a guild booster banner, I can see no problems with this other than “blocking” interactive things, but that problem already exists and I only see it as a slight annoyance (tab ftw).

I also have a bug with the set bonus from the Vamirism rune in sPvP.

When it triggers (below10%) I do not turn to mist or go invulnerable, instead I lose all my weapon skills and continue to take damage as usual.

I can still dodge and use utility skills, but as I said during the duration of the “buff” I can’t use any weapon skills, as if the only thing about the mistform working is the “unable to attack” part.
